Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

Barrett looked at the test report over and over again, but never said a word.

Barrett didn't speak, and Intel's executives didn't dare to speak. Everyone watched him quietly in Barrett's office.

There was one thing in Barrett's mind.

How can we continue to maintain an advantage in the competition with Changtian Technology?

Only in this way can we continue to maintain cooperative relations with Intel's partners.

After all, the Pangu No. 3 chip of Changtian Technology is sold at 999 RMB, and the price is quite attractive.

Barrett believes that if he is an ordinary computer consumer and wants to be equipped with a computer, then the Pangu 3 chip is definitely a unique choice.

Since Barrett will have such thoughts, then other consumers will certainly continue to do so.

Barrett closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and at once made four policies.

"Accelerate the export of Core 2 Duo chips, especially those PC companies that have already delivered chip deposits and full payment. We must hurry up and supply them."

This point of Barrett is actually mainly aimed at Lianxiang, because Lianxiang paid a lot of money before the official launch of the Core 2 Duo chip, hoping to get the Core 2 Duo chip at the first time.

If Lian wanted to go back and cancel Intel's related orders at this time, then Intel would really suffer heavy losses.

"In addition to the signed agreement, all Core 2 Duo chips will be reduced in price from the early morning of tomorrow, with a price reduction of 20%. We hope to stabilize our existing market with a price advantage."

"The marketing department immediately called our partners, and they understood them with reason and emotion, and asked them to continue to cooperate with Intel, especially to call software companies such as Microsoft, so that these software can continue to adapt to Intel chips. , and guarantees the best performance can only be obtained on Intel chips.”

"Continue to mobilize the power of public opinion to increase Intel's exposure in the media industry..."

Barrett didn't say anything later, that is, while increasing Intel's exposure, he should also put enough pressure on Changtian Technology's Pangu 3 chip.

In fact, Barrett is very clear that these measures have a certain impact on the sales of Pangu 3 chips, but they are not decisive.

Because chip products have a characteristic, that is to speak in terms of performance.

All measures are in vain until your performance surpasses others.

Barrett once again urged the laboratory to make breakthroughs in technology, not only to repeatedly optimize the related technologies of 65nm process chips, but also to implement the 45nm process technology on paper.

Barrett said angrily: "Why can't we Intel realize the technology that a newly established Xiaguo technology company can realize?"

Speaking of which, Barrett patted the table heavily and pointed to Yang Ling's resume on the table: "You are the elites of the world, the elites cultivated by the Ivy League in the United States, and many of you have been in the world's top ranks such as Harvard and Massachusetts. college experience.”

"Yang Ling is only studying in a university in Xiaguo, which is not in the mainstream. Except for very few people in the chip team of Changtian Technology, most of them graduated from universities in Xiaguo. Not even in the top 100 in the world.”

"If you were defeated by this group of people, would you be willing?"

Intel's team, especially the technical team, is definitely the elite among the elites of the global IC industry.

They hold the highest income in the world and also develop the world's top IC products.

This time Changtian Technology's Pangu 3 chip gave them a deep sense of frustration.

If the Pangu 3 chip with excellent performance is developed by the United States or Toyo, then Intel can still be convinced.

However, the Pangu No. 3 chip was actually developed by Xia Guo Company, which has never shown its face in the IC industry, which made everyone's heart very unhappy.

Intel's elite team is high-spirited and full of energy.

Of course, it wasn't Barrett's words that inspired them to fight, and they didn't have much sense of national honor and national pride.

The fundamental reason for them to hold back is that if Intel lags behind in the chip industry, the products will be unsalable, which will directly affect their own income.

Money is the root of this group of people's struggle.

After Barrett returned to the office, he let Intel's cho come to his office.

Intel wants to poach people crazily. Talents in the high-end chip industry from all over the world, including Changtian Technology's chip talents, as long as they can be used by me and can help Intel's chip progress, must be poached crazily.

Barrett asked cho to say hello to the world's major headhunting companies, and let these headhunting companies around the world poach people crazily, preferably chip talents who can dig Changtian Technology.

Intel is very generous. As long as it can dig up the core talents of Changtian Technology chips, one talent will pay the corresponding headhunting company 500 to 1 million meters.

At the same time, Intel also offers these talents quite generous salaries.

If the core person of Changtian Technology's chip can successfully work at Intel, he will receive an annual salary of no less than 5 million meters.

5 million meters knife is about 30 million RMB, this kind of treatment is quite terrible.

You must know that the annual salary of most scientific research staff in Changtian Technology's chip laboratory is only more than 1 million RMB, and the salary given by Intel is more than 30 times higher than that given by Changtian Technology.

Barrett felt that the price Intel paid was worth it. If they could dig up the chip talents of Changtian Technology and apply some key technologies of carbon crystal storage to Intel, then Intel would surely become the world's top commercial chip again. company.

Barrett didn't immediately report the idea to the board, but he believed the board would agree.

Intel's human resources director got the order from the CEO and got to work right away.

I have to admire the intelligence power of these companies in the United States. The international headhunting company contacted by Intel immediately came up with a list.

This list captures the core talents of Changtian Technology and Yanjiang Semiconductor.

If Chen Xiao saw this list, he would be very surprised.

Because the content of this list is as detailed as a person's family background, schooling and work situation, and even their personal email and personal phone number.

Chen Xiao has never released any information about the core members.

Where did the list of international headhunters come from? And only God knows.

The headhunting company divides the personnel of this list into three, six and nine, and intends to focus on several core members.

…

At this time, Yanjing Lianxiang headquarters.

Yang Qing is also waiting for the results of the laboratory.

Finally, the laboratory can confirm that the performance of the Pangu 3 chip is indeed much higher than that of the e4300 that Lianxiang purchased in large quantities.

The experimental report was sent to Yang Qing and Uncle Liu.

In fact, Uncle Liu has been thinking about a problem during this time.

If Lianxiang wants to become the No. 1 brother in the PC industry, there can be no problems at home and abroad.

Uncle Liu even formulated a strategy to embrace Intel abroad and Changtian Technology at home.

This way you can eat both ways.

Uncle Liu immediately informed Yang Qing of his current thoughts.

At this time, Yang Qing couldn't bear it anymore.

After all, I personally went to see the press conference that day, and the chip test data of the laboratory were there.

The performance of the Pangu 3 chip is indeed stronger than that of Intel's Core 2.

The Pangu No. 3 chip is matched with the motherboard, memory, hard disk and system of Longline Technology, so the overall performance is definitely more than double that of the computer on the Core 2 platform.

Yang Qing also knows that many brands, including Dell and Asus, are ready to sign chip supply orders with Changtian Technology.

In the foreseeable future, when Dell and other brands sell computers equipped with Pangu 3 chips in the mainland of Xiaguo, what should Lianxiang do?

Yang Qing said to Mr. Liu: "I have no opinion on purchasing Changtian Technology's chips, but because the relationship between us and Changtian Technology was not good some time ago, now we are actively looking for Changtian Technology to buy chips. Embarrass us?"

The bigger the company, the more it cares about face.

Yang Qing also cares about Lianxiang's face. It is impossible for Lianxiang to kneel down and beg Changtian Technology to provide some chips, right?

It would be no problem for Lianxiang to ask Western technology companies to provide some chips, because the West has always been stronger than Xia Guo’s technology companies, and has a longer history than Lianxiang.

But if Yang Qing was asked to ask Changtian Technology, which had just been established a few years ago, for chips, Yang Qing couldn't help himself.

Uncle Liu is also an old man. He laughed a few times and said to Yang Qing: "Changtian Technology regards itself as a technology company of Xiaguo, and has led the rise of Xiaguo Technology."

"Our Lianxiang is also a national enterprise of Xia Guo. We will not beg for chips from Changtian Technology, but openly talk to Changtian Technology and ask Changtian Technology to give Xia Guo's PC company Pangu No. 3 chip, so that we can Let Xia Guo's PC company compete with European and American brands."

"If Changtian Technology vetoes our public talk, then the public opinion will tear his face to pieces, and we don't need to worry about it!"

Uncle Liu's vision is indeed very vicious, and he is completely with Intel in the international market, because Uncle Liu is not sure that the Pangu 3 chip can be sold to the international market smoothly.

Lianxiang still firmly believes that Intel is the king of the semiconductor industry, and after the acquisition of ibm, Lianxiang has focused on the international market. In the international market, it is impossible for Lianxiang to abandon Intel and instead cooperate with Changtian Technology in an all-round way.

But in the domestic market, Uncle Liu put the hats of national enterprises and leading Xiaguo Technology on Changtian Technology's head, forcing Changtian Technology to commit crimes and had to sell the chips to Lianxiang.

In this way, Lianxiang has been able to take all in the domestic market and the international market, earning great profits.

Yang Qing's eyes lit up...

Lianxiang immediately used the means of public opinion to express to Changtian Technology that Lianxiang needed the Pangu 3 chip.

After all, Lianxiang is also the big brother of the PC industry. He not only puts pressure on Changtian Technology in public opinion, but also puts pressure on Industrial Technology through the senior management of some departments.

For several days, very influential media such as "Nanbian Daily", "New Yanjing News" and many other media have published relevant reports.

"Nanfang Daily": The rise of Xiaguo Technology Co., Ltd. is nothing but an empty talk. Everything is a consideration of interests. Lianxiang has been unable to buy Pangu chips from Changtian Technology many times.

"New Yanjing News": Can Changtian Technology lead the rise of Xia Guo's technology companies? The Pangu 3 chip is a feast for Western PC companies. Dell has successfully purchased 100,000 Pangu 3 chips, but as the leader of domestic PC companies, Lianxiang cannot buy one.

Similar vicious news and comments continued one after another.

In addition to the print media, there are also many similar statements on online forums and some websites, and they have received an astonishing amount of reading.

Netizens commented in the forum:

"I don't understand why Changtian Technology would rather sell the chips to Dell than to Lianxiang. This is to wholeheartedly support his subsidiary Shenchuan."

"I'm sorry, too. At the press conference, I said very proudly that Xiaguo Technology Company must stand on the top of the world, and Xiaguo Technology Company should unite. As a result, after the conference was over, for their own interests, it was better to put competitors on the table. blocked."

Just as Chen Xiao judged, in this era, the Internet media is not particularly developed, and many overseas news cannot be transmitted, so Lianxiang is still a very good family in everyone's hearts, and can lead the nation's rise to greatness. technology company.

Wu Jun, who was in Shenzhen, also saw relevant reports, and he was shaking with anger.

"This gang of media is blind? Selective reporting out of context!"

"What is it that Changtian Technology does not sell chips to Lianxiang. Changtian Technology has hoped to cooperate with Lianxiang many times, but look at the conditions given by Lianxiang. Is this acceptable to people?"

"Xxxx's!" Wu Jun was so angry that he threw the newspaper on the table~www.readwn.com~ couldn't help but cursed a few swear words.

"These media not only killed Changtian Technology with one shot, but also felt that our Shenchuan is a small belly, a company that only pursues profits."

In addition to the media and the Internet, Wang Xiang also received many letters and calls from key departments and figures during this period.

I hope that Changtian Technology can take the national science and technology game as the overall situation, and the chips will not only be sold to overseas technology companies, but also to domestic technology companies.

The heavy one severely criticized some of the actions of Changtian Technology, and said that Changtian Technology should reach some cooperation with Lianxiang to increase the competitiveness of Lianxiang, thereby increasing the influence of Xiaguo Technology.

One of the words has been recognized by many people - instead of letting Western PC companies occupy Xiaguo's market share, it is better to let our Xiaguo PC companies gain more users.

Looking at these letters and related reports, Wang Xiang felt a pain in his head.

Because all functions of Changtian Technology Headquarters have not been completely transferred from Jiangzhou to Changzezhou, Wang Xiang is still stationed in Jiangzhou.

He immediately sent the relevant situation report to Chen Xiao by encrypted email, and called Chen Xiao.

"Mr. Chen's company is under a lot of pressure now. It seems that if we don't sell chips to certain companies, we are a heinous crime."
