"We sincerely invite you to go to Changzezhou to attend the Changtian Technology new product launch conference...the conference will be held on July 21, 2007..."
Wu Jun was very excited when he got the invitation letter from the head office in the office.
Although the press conference did not say what Changtian Technology's new products are, Wu Jun is not a fool.
After Intel released the 65nm Core 2 processor, the sales of Changtian Technology's Pangu 1 and 2 processors declined, and Shenzhou's sales were in critical times. Changtian Technology's release of new products must be very targeted.
Wu Jun called Wang Xiang, and the other party confirmed this fact.
Wu Jun, who was determined, immediately called his secretary and said: "Book me the nearest flight to Suhang immediately! Contact Mr. Xiao from the Suhang Shenchuan Branch and ask him to prepare a car and wait for me at the airport!"
Wu Jun then said to his secretary: "Continue the promotion of Shenchuan T1 Dragon series computers. Don't change the price any more. You can give more gifts."
Wu Jun's purpose of doing this is actually to clear out Shenchuan's inventory as soon as possible and prepare for new products.
Of course, there are some T1 computers that cannot be sold, and that doesn't matter, because when Chen Xiao designed the Jiaolong motherboard, he considered the later upgrades and scalability, so the T1 Jiaolong computers that were not sold only need to perform a CPU upgrade. Upgrade, or add some hard drives and memory, and you can sell it as the latest computer.
At the same time, the invitation letter from Changtian Technology was also sent to the Yanjing Lianxiang headquarters, in the hands of Yang Qing and Uncle Liu.
After Yang Qing saw the invitation letter from Changtian Technology, he was a little confused.
Changtian Technology launches new product launch conference?
He had a very bad premonition. Why did Changtian Technology release a new product at this time?
And if Changtian Technology released other types of new products, it would be impossible to invite Lianxiang's senior executives.
Since Changtian Technology is inviting Lianxiang's senior executives, there is only one possibility for the new products to be released - related to PC products.
In addition, Shenzhou is a subsidiary of Changtian Technology and Shenzhou's main product is PC, so Changtian Technology is unlikely to release a new PC product and is most likely to release hardware.
Maybe it’s the chip!
Yang Qing had analyzed the entire situation thoroughly, and he felt a little panicked in his heart.
After all, Lianxiang is Intel's largest buyer. If Changtian Technology really releases a more advanced chip than Intel Core 2, what should Lianxiang do?
Yang Qing laughed awkwardly, thinking that this kind of thing was unlikely.
Because Yang Qing clearly knows that producing 65-nanometer chips requires more advanced photolithography machines.
According to the accurate information obtained by Yang Qing, Asmail completely refused to produce photolithography machines for Changtian Technology. At the same time, it is impossible for TiMC to manufacture chips for Changtian Technology.
Although Changtian Technology has announced the design results of its 65-nanometer chip through papers and other means, design is one thing and actual production is another.
Without photolithography machines and foundries willing to take orders, is it possible to produce 65-nanometer chips by relying closely on Yanjiang Semiconductor's 130-nanometer technology?
Yang Qing didn’t believe it!
He absolutely did not believe in Changtian Technology, but it took him less than a year to produce his own photolithography machine.
Photolithography machines are the most sophisticated equipment in the world, and Yang Qing is certain that Changtian Technology does not have such production capacity and technology.
To go or not to go! ?
Just when Yang Qing was still struggling, he received a call from Uncle Liu.
Uncle Liu is still the actual controller and helmsman of Lianxiang. Although he is stubborn, his grasp of the industry is relatively accurate.
Uncle Liu asked Yang Qing to take the team to see what was going on.
go!
Yang Qing made up his mind and prepared to go to Changzezhou with a team of ten people including marketing and technology. He wanted to see what Changtian Technology was going to do with such a grand and grand launch!
Uncle Liu also gave Yang Qing some predictions. Uncle Liu guessed that Changtian Technology’s press conference may indeed be a chip, but it may be partially improved on the 130nm technology, hoping to be close to Intel’s Core in performance. 2 chips.
As for Changtian Technology’s release of 65-nanometer chips? Uncle Liu guessed that this was absolutely impossible.
At the same time, in Yanjing, Intel Xiaguo District Headquarters also received an invitation from Changtian Technology.
This invitation letter confused the senior executives of Intel's Xiaguo headquarters.
What a proud company Intel is.
In fact, from beginning to end, he never regarded Changtian Technology as his competitor.
Even if Changtian Technology came up with the Pangu series of chips, Intel thought it was just an accidental event.
He never imagined that Changtian Technology would produce products that surpassed Intel's.
Therefore, in response to this invitation letter, Intel's executives threw it into the trash.
Intel has more and more detailed information than Lianxiang.
Intel knows that Changtian Technology has purchased lithography machines all over the world some time ago, but except for Asmail, no lithography machine company can produce 65-nanometer level lithography machines.
Therefore, Changtian Technology should not have purchased a 65-nanometer level photolithography machine so far.
If you don't buy a photolithography machine, it is of course impossible to produce 65-nanometer chips. Taking a step back, even if Changtian Technology has the relevant technology to produce 65-nanometer chips, it will be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.
Intel is not willing to waste time attending the product launch of Changtian Technology. Now the most important task of the entire Intel Xiaguo headquarters is to negotiate with more PC companies as soon as possible to sell more chips.
Intel's goal is to occupy more than 90% of the world's share with more advanced products.
Changtian Technology has sent out more than 1,000 invitations in total. In addition to the big guys in the industry, there are also leaders from many research institutes and universities, as well as relevant leaders from Jiangzhou, Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou, and friends from various media.
Changtian Technology attaches great importance to this press conference. After all, this is the first time that Xia Guo has completely designed and produced a chip from beginning to end, and it is definitely the first time in history.
The big bosses who received the invitation letters set off to Changzezhou one after another. This was also the first time that Changzezhou opened its doors to receive guests.
After receiving the news, various media also paid great attention to it.
Xinlang Technology reported in advance: “After the release of Intel Core 2 chips, the sales of Pangu chips under Changtian Technology suffered a setback. Except for Shenchuan under Changtian Technology, which is still purchasing, Dell and other brands have already Purchase quantities have been reduced.”
Xinlang Technology: “According to our reporter’s understanding, Shenchuan’s financial performance in the first and second quarters was not very good. With the strong performance of Core Chip 2, it also gained more market share, and the road ahead for domestic chips is even more bumpy. .”
"At this critical moment, Changtian Technology immediately held a press conference and invited many industry professionals and media reporters to participate. It deserves our attention!"
"We are currently driving to Changzezhou, Xinlang Technology reporter, Suzhou and Hangzhou will report for you."
At the same time, reporter Li from "Computer News" who has been paying attention to domestic chips was very excited to embark on the interview.
On the train to Suzhou and Hangzhou, reporter Li wrote in his notebook: "The emergence of Changtian Technology has lit a bright light for Xia Guo's technology industry. We once expected a domestic system, and Changtian Technology gave us Miracle, we are looking forward to more sophisticated domestic chips again, and Changtian Technology will definitely be able to give us the answer."
Reporter Li sat by the window of the train and looked at the rapidly fading scenery outside the window. He was very excited.
He is very grateful to be able to live in this era and witness the rise of Changtian Technology.
After reporter Li put away his pen, he said: "I hope it can give the Chinese people a surprise!"
We look forward to Xia becoming the most technologically powerful country in the world.
This is the appeal in the hearts of generations of Xia Guo science and technology journalists!
In the evening of July 21, 2007.
Relevant people from Xia Guo's IT industry as well as relevant people from the media and academia have arrived in Nagasawa Island.
At the same time, three planes took off from New York and Washington respectively, with the destination being Xia Guo Shanghai.
On the three planes were teams from Pepsi-Myers Squibb, Johnson & Johnson, and Pfizer.
Their destination was not the Shanghai Stock Exchange in Xia State, but the Changzezhou Changtian Technology Headquarters in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
They are not here to see Changtian Technology's chip launch conference, but they hope to establish medical cooperation with Changtian Technology. It is best to obtain the agency use rights of United Colony and United Energy Army.
In the afternoon, Yang Qing led his team to Changzezhou.
When he saw the buildings and environment of Changzezhou, he was a little surprised.
The most written words on the road signs in Changzezhou are laboratory, laboratory and laboratory.
In other words, Changtian Technology has turned this delta area into its own laboratory.
And what about Lianxiang?
With this uneasiness in his heart, Yang Qing entered the venue of the press conference - the open-air garden of Wangyue Hotel on the top floor of Changtian Technology Headquarters Building.
Yang Qing saw many old acquaintances at the scene, including CEOs or vice presidents of companies such as Dell and Asus.
Obviously, these PC companies also attach great importance to Changtian Technology's press conference.
However, unlike Lianxiang, the CEOs of companies such as Dell and Asus have a very relaxed attitude.
Because they have had a relatively pleasant cooperation with Changtian Technology before, whether they increase the number of purchases of Changtian Technology chips or reduce related quantities, this is due to market behavior and does not involve grudges.
If Changtian Technology releases more advanced chips, these companies will certainly be happy to purchase them.
But Lianxiang is different. Because there are some unpleasant things between him and Changtian Technology, Lianxiang has no room for turning around.
Yang Qing said hello to the CEOs of PC companies with some awkward smiles.
…
At seven o'clock in the evening, the press conference officially started.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Zhang Jing walked to the center of the stage wearing short sleeves.
The employees and reporters at Changtian Technology burst into warm applause.
Chen Xiao, Wang Xiang, Wu Jun and other senior executives of Changtian Technology were also present. Also present were Chen Xiao's parents, Chen Jianqiang and He Hui.
The two of them were getting older, so Chen Xiao also asked them to go out for a walk more often and see the scenery.
Yang Qing and others just clapped their hands politely and stared at the stage.
But Yang Qing's heart skipped a beat.
The protagonist of this press conference is Zhang Jing, so the meaning is very obvious.
What Changtian Technology releases this time must be chip products.
Zhang Jing stood in the center of the stage and looked at the audience below.
He was full of emotions. He once looked at the VIP seats belonging to Tiyui Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., but it was a pity that this time Tiyui Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., like Intel, did not send any personnel to participate in the press conference.
Zhang Jing said in less than standard Mandarin: "First of all, thank you very much for coming to Changzezhou and participating in Changtian Technology's press conference."
Zhang Jing said at the center of the stage this week: "I know that when Changtian Technology sent the invitation letter to everyone, you were also guessing what Changtian Technology was doing this time? It invited everyone to come with such great efforts, We haven’t reimbursed everyone’s travel expenses yet. What kind of product are you going to release?”
Zhang Jing said: "Now I can reveal the answer. The product we released is a chip, a new generation chip designed by Changtian Technology and manufactured by Yanjiang Semiconductor Company."
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience started talking.
Because everyone has guessed that Changtian Technology will definitely release a chip this time, but the specific specifications and performance of the chip are still unknown.
Zhang Jing said: "Before I reveal the specific model of the chip, I will announce some data. Please look at the big screen."
Displayed on the big screen is the total amount of China's integrated circuit imports from 1999 to 2006.
Among them, it was US$8.6 billion in 1999, accounting for 5.9% of the global share. However, by 2006, we had become the world's largest importer of semiconductor products, with the total amount reaching US$120 billion.
Zhang Jing said: "In 2006, the total import value of Xia Guo's IC products reached 120 billion U.S. dollars, most of which were chips. This amount should exceed Xia Guo's crude oil import value."
When he said this, Zhang Jing smiled: "Most of the products we import are owned by the world's top IC companies, and they have a monopoly on chips."
"This illustrates a problem that Changtian Technology encountered some time ago - in terms of the core products of industrial technology, the fate of Xia Guo's technology companies is firmly in the hands of Western technology companies. If the other party wants to kill you, In this death place, we don’t even have the power to resist.”
When he said this, Zhang Jing looked at Yang Qing and showed a smile.
"This chip is named Pangu 3 chip."
"It adopts a dual-core design, the system bus (FSB) is 800 MHz, the main frequency is 2.0Ghz, the first-level cache is 512K, and carbon crystal particles are used, and the second-level cache is 12 MB, also using carbon crystal Particles.”
"The operating voltage is about 1.25 volts and the cooling power is 45 watts."
"The number of pins is the same as Pangu 1 and Pangu 2, and it can be adapted to Angda motherboards that are already on the market."
Thank you all for your monthly votes at the end of the month! Those big guys who cast more than ten or twenty votes are so awesome! !
