July 20, 2004, the scene of Intel's press conference.
"I am very happy that the journalists and guests are attending this press conference. This is my first press conference since taking office as Intel president, and it is also a press conference that changes the world."
When Paul Ouderning came to the center of the stage, he was in high spirits. At this time, his head was slightly raised, with surging confidence.
Because he knows that the news he will announce next will definitely cause a global sensation, and the plan he leads will also profoundly change the future of global semiconductors.
And his great achievements will be deeply recorded in the history of global semiconductors and become an important node that cannot be bypassed when people talk about Intel and computer processors.
"Click, click, click, click..."
The reporters at the scene also pressed the cameras in their hands when Paul Oudening was speaking, and took pictures of Paul Oudening who was high-spirited and confident at this time.
"First of all, I am very grateful to the board of directors and shareholders for their trust in me. Next, I will prove that the shareholders' trust in me is right with results that far exceed those of previous Intel presidents."
"Click, click, click, click..."
Accompanying Paul Ouderning's words, the scene responded with more intensive camera flashing sounds.
“Next, I will officially announce a series of development plans after I take office as president. These plans will bring Intel back to the top!
First of all, we call the first plan the Pendulum Plan (Tick-Tock Plan). "
While Paul Oudening was speaking, a picture of a pendulum appeared on the projection screen behind him. Next to the picture, there were some words explaining what the Pendulum Project was.
"As you can see, the so-called pendulum plan uses two years as a cycle like this PPT picture. In the first year, the process technology is updated, in the second year the architecture is updated, and then it keeps changing like a pendulum!
After doing this, our process technology and architecture will be far ahead of our opponents, leaving them far behind!
I believe that in the near future, Intel's low-end processors will outperform other high-end processors in the global market! "
When Paul Oudening said this at this time, he was quite confident.
Although he actually doesn't understand technology at all, he is just a businessman.
But he has a great R&D talent under him. This R&D talent is none other than Pat Kirsinger, who is responsible for the Pendulum Project and developed the Core processor and the Xeon processor!
So even though Paul Oldham knows nothing about technology, he has a reliable talent under him, Pat Kilsinger.
Pat Kirsinger was also loyal to Intel and proposed the Pendulum Plan shortly after he took office.
He also told him how powerful the Core processor was, which gave Paul Oudening enough confidence.
Of course, the pendulum plan is good, but it means that Intel's investment in R&D expenditure will be greatly increased in the future.
However, Paul Oudening is confident that improving the company's performance can support the greatly increased R&D expenditure. After all, managing the company to improve performance is what he is good at.
So next, Paul Oudening explained to the reporters and guests what the Pendulum Plan was and how great the Pendulum Plan was.
What great changes he will bring to Intel, how he will completely crush .D and potential competitors Sugon Technology, etc.
In fact, this pendulum plan is indeed very strong!
Because according to the history of previous lives, ever since Intel proposed the Pendulum Plan and strictly implemented the Pendulum Plan.
The rising momentum of .D company was completely interrupted, and there was a sad situation where low-end Core i3 processors instantly killed .D high-end processors.
It can be said that if Company D had not had a ".D, yes!" Su's mother to turn the crisis around, then Company D would have been in agony from the Pendulum Plan and continue to decline.
This shows how terrifying the Pendulum Plan is and how significant its impact is on global semiconductors.
It can be said that the Pendulum Plan accounted for at least a large part of the credit for Intel being so awesome in the previous life.
But Intel's big move obviously goes beyond that. After he introduced the Zhonghun plan, Paul Oudening changed the topic and mentioned the next plan.
"Okay, the first plan, the Pendulum Plan, has been introduced. The second plan I want to introduce next is the Core processor research and development plan!
This Core processor will bring Intel back to the top, and its birth is as significant as the birth of the Pentium processor.
Among them, this Core processor is expected to be launched in the second half of next year based on the current research and development progress. The specific time cannot be given.
In addition, the specific hardware parameters of the Core processor cannot be disclosed because they are company secrets, but I can disclose unimportant information.
For example, the core code of this Core processor is Conroe, which uses a 90-nanometer process technology, and the base frequency is expected to exceed 1.2Ghz!"
"Click, click, click, click, click..."
The reporters who heard Paul Oudening's words also pressed the cameras in their hands, and the reporter holding a notebook quickly wrote down what Paul Oudening said.
They are also very interested in this Core processor. After all, Paul Oudelin has such a high evaluation of the Core processor.
It is also called as important as the Pentium processor of the year, so one can imagine that this Core processor must be very powerful.
But at this time, a reporter slowly raised his hand:
"Mr. Paul Oudening, I heard that Intel has produced the first 65-nanometer chip some time ago.
I would like to ask why this Core processor does not use the 65nm process technology but the 90nm process technology? "
Hearing this, the reporters at the scene looked at Paul Oudening with bright eyes.
Because to be honest, many reporters at the scene did not know that Intel had successfully produced the first 65-nanometer chip.
On the other side, Paul Oudening, who was facing the reporter's question, was slightly stunned. Then he recalled the information he had learned before, and then slowly replied:
“Although we at Intel have successfully produced chips using the 65-nanometer process technology, there are issues with the yield rate and the construction of the 65-nanometer chip process technology production line because of the 65-nanometer process technology.
The specific time may not be until around the middle of 2006 before large-scale mass production of processors using the 65nm process technology can be officially launched. After all, it will take time to build a 65nm process technology chip production line and improve the yield rate. "
The reporters on the scene brightened when they heard Paul Oudening's words, and then they pressed the cameras in their hands again. The reporter holding a notebook quickly wrote down what Paul Oudening said.
