Chapter 470 Kill two birds with one stone
Li Dongling stood at the window of the conference room, watching the cars passing by. Changqing Road already had some shadow of the busyness of his previous life.
“Not only domestic and foreign manufacturers, but also many manufacturers are supporting Lianxiang, Intel, AMD, Sharp, Panasonic, Samsung, Nvidia, etc., and they don’t want Lianxiang to fall!”
< br>Li Dongling said, “Currently, there are no domestic companies that can produce domestic computer chips, graphics cards and other components. Intel, AMD, Samsung and other companies do not supply them, so there is really no domestic use of chips, graphics cards, memory sticks and other components.
So, as long as they are still supporting Lianxiang, it will not survive. If Tanglin Hi-Tech wants to truly defeat Lianxiang, it must defeat Intel, AMD, Panasonic, Samsung and other companies that support it. ! ”
The current situation in the domestic computer industry is actually quite similar to the mobile phone industry in the previous life!
In the past life, in the era of 3G and 4G mobile phones, the company that really dominated domestic mobile phones for more than ten years was not a certain mobile phone brand, but Qualcomm!
Those who win Qualcomm will win the world. In the mobile phone industry in the previous life, this was not an empty talk. How many mobile phone brands did not play with appearance design, functions, etc., but used Qualcomm baseband processors as a promotional selling point... …
Whoever Qualcomm supplies, whichever brand of mobile phone, can use this as a selling point, and the sales are hot. If it does not supply to whichever company, it will be out of stock. In the long run, whichever mobile phone brand dares to Don’t rush to pay tribute to Qualcomm!
Then, Samsung’s LCD screen has become a selling point for major mobile phone manufacturers. The entire mobile phone industry is not promoting its own brand, but promoting which processor is used, which mobile phone screen is used, and which camera is used by Sony. How far has the Android system been modified to promote the powerful performance of its machine?
In today's computer industry, the same is true. The processors are from Intel or AMD. That is, as long as they support a certain computer manufacturer, that company will not fail. To put it bluntly, if this company fails, there will be no such company in the country. A cheap computer with good performance.
As long as the price is low enough and the performance is decent compared to foreign computer brands, even if there are shady materials, there will still be a lot of people buying it because there is no choice!
So, if Donglin Hi-tech wants to really kill a certain domestic computer brand, the key may not be at home, but abroad. Only with a better graphics card and a larger memory stick than Samsung's memory can we have a chance to kill the agents they launch in China.
Otherwise, this war will be endless. After all, it is not troublesome for the other party to launch an agent. If Tanglin High-tech really spends all its energy on Intel and Samsung’s domestic agents, then this A war that will never end and may even be dragged down in the end.
Even the Woolly Bear Empire, and overlords like America, were dragged into the imperial cemetery for more than ten years, and their vitality was severely damaged.
As the smoke filled the air, Ren Yuefeng took a puff of his cigarette. Since joining Tanglin Hi-tech, Ren Yuefeng has seen many big scenes, and has also gone head-to-head with giant companies such as Microsoft, Siemens, and Toshiba.
But now, hearing that he was going to challenge a company like Intel still made him a little worried.
This is not because Ren Yuefeng is afraid of fighting or anything, but in previous competitions with Microsoft, Siemens, Toshiba and other companies, the competition was not for each other's core business. If Microsoft really dares to touch the computer operating system business, then Microsoft I'm afraid that even if there is a real risk of being split up, it will use any means to strangle its opponents who threaten it!
Similarly, if there are rumors that Donglin Hi-tech will launch its own chips, Intel will probably be targeted immediately by the inverse scale!
After all, one AMD is enough to give Intel a headache. If there is another competitor of the same level, Intel will probably not be able to afford it, so it will definitely suppress any opponent that dares to take the lead.
Moreover, when Donglin High-tech enters the computer industry, it is not going to be a mortal enemy of Intel, but it will become rivals of overseas computer core component manufacturers led by Intel.
"If Dongling Hi-Tech enters the computer industry and sells self-developed chip computers, there will be two biggest troubles!"
Ren Yuefeng frowned and said, facing Li Dongling, There was no need for him to be secretive and he said directly, "The first trouble is that Dongxin Semiconductor is now using MIPS' MIPS architecture!"
"MIPS architecture chips are not compatible with Intel's X86, Microsoft does not have a system version that supports MPIS chips. Tanglin Hi-Tech can launch MPIS architecture computer chips, but which system should be used?" Ren Yuefeng asked.
Computer systems, of course, are not just Microsoft. Apple also has its own operating system. Today’s Apple is not yet the empire that will be in full swing in the future. Steve Jobs has not yet returned, and Apple is facing a bankruptcy crisis.
In addition to Apple's computer systems, IBM also has AIX systems developed based on Unix, as well as Linux systems, etc. However, these systems all face a problem, that is, there are too few users and few software developers.
Using these operating systems requires time-consuming and labor-intensive development. In the end, there may be no supporting software at all. Even if you develop the software yourself, you will still face Microsoft patent issues. Except for professionals in special industries, who is willing to use what? An operating system without any software? !
The most important thing is that once you develop an operating system, you will become an enemy of Microsoft. If you offend Intel and Microsoft at the same time, the pressure will be too great. Even Donglin Hi-Tech will be under great pressure. Unable to fight on two fronts!
At least, Tanglin Hi-Tech is not yet able to fight against the alliance between Intel and Microsoft on its own. At the very least, it needs to win over one of them. "Dongxin Semiconductor's MPIS chip can get the support of Microsoft. Next month, I will go to America, not only for the listing of Feiyan Technology, but also to get the support of Microsoft system for Dongxin Semiconductor!"
Li Dongling said to Ren Yuefeng. Under Ren Yuefeng's puzzled gaze, Li Dongling said, "Everyone in the world is looking for profit. Everyone and any company has something they want to get. The difference is just the level of chips!"
“The alliance between Microsoft and Intel is not impeccable, at least in the domestic market!”
Li Dongling flipped the Zorro metal lighter in his hand, “Whatever Microsoft wants most now, Dongling Hi-Tech will provide it. What is it!”
“Hardware?”
After thinking hard, Microsoft is somewhat invincible in the global software industry. Without its one-stop enemy, the only thing Microsoft can miss is the computer hardware industry.
Microsoft has been concerned about the computer industry not once or twice, but every time it shows up, it is blocked. Computer giants such as Dell, HP, and Compaq are more defensive about Microsoft than Sichuan, and they firmly block Microsoft out of the computer hardware industry!
Why does Microsoft turn its back on the game console industry and would rather lose more than 10 billion US dollars before quitting the game? It’s because except for the game console industry, in other hardware industries, if Microsoft dares to intervene, it will be dominated by the industry. The internal companies united and blocked it!
Li Dongling nodded, "If Dongling Hi-Tech enters the computer industry, it will need an ally in the short term. It would be best to bring in Microsoft. It can give part of its computer hardware business to Microsoft.< br>
Of course, if Microsoft refuses, Dongling Hi-Tech can also find other partners, but the price it needs to pay may be a bit high! "
Microsoft is by no means a good person, and Li Dongling is also aware of this. It is well known that once Tanglin High-tech cooperates with Microsoft, it will basically seek skin from a tiger. No one knows how long it will last, but as long as the first few years are spent and Tanglin High-tech gains a foothold in the computer industry, that will be enough.
"If we can solve the problems with Dongxin Semiconductor's chips and operating systems, the last remaining problem is that if Donglin Hi-Tech starts selling computers, it will definitely be targeted, and the sales volume will probably be..." Ren Yuefeng said with some worry.
Even if the MPIS architecture chip currently developed by Dongxin Semiconductor is developed, its performance will only be equivalent to the level of the first-generation Pentium processor. The first-generation Pentium was released by Intel three years ago. It is Dongxin Semiconductor's chip technology that lags behind Intel's top chips by more than two to three years.
If Donglin Hi-tech uses Dongxin Semiconductor’s self-developed chips, it will only be able to launch computers with mid-range or even low-end processors. However, these two computer markets are the most fiercely competitive. .
Domestic computers such as Lianxiang, Founder, and Great Wall are also mixed in these two industries. When the time comes, the computers launched by Donglin Hi-Tech will likely face the low-end models of domestic brands and overseas computer brands. joint encirclement and suppression campaign.
At that time, if the first computer that invested huge R&D expenses fails miserably, then Donglin Hi-Tech will be in an embarrassing situation in the computer industry. Once the computer sales fail miserably, Dongxin Semiconductor's chips will also Questioned.
In the future, we still need to develop self-developed chips. If we use them, sales may still fail miserably. But if Donglin Hi-Tech doesn't use them, then which company will purchase computer chips from Donglin Semiconductor? The entire Tanglin Hi-Tech computer business may suffer. The domino effect leads to complete defeat.
Even if Donglin Semiconductor abandons Dongxin Semiconductor and uses Intel and AMD chips, the impact will probably be even greater. If Donglin Hi-Tech itself purchases chips from abroad, wouldn’t everything it does today become a joke? !
“If there is no market demand, then Tanglin Hi-Tech will create the market demand on its own!”
Zorro in Li Dongling’s hand rotates the sparks, and finally closes it with a “snap”, “fighting a price war” , there will never be a way out, it will only plunge itself into the quagmire of war."
"After Dongxin Semiconductor develops its own chips, and Dongling Hi-Tech develops its own computers, let Tianya Company enter the large-scale Internet cafe industry! !
Use Internet cafes to provide funds for Tianya Company's Internet business. Similarly, you can also purchase computers from Tanglin Hi-Tech! ”
At the peak of domestic Internet cafes, the number of Internet cafes exceeded 160,000, and the number of computers in Internet cafes was conservatively around 20 million. If this market is occupied, it will be enough to provide computers under Donglin Hi-Tech for several years. sales volume.
If Dongxin Semiconductor’s chip technology cannot catch up with Intel’s latest generation technology in ten years, then Li Dongling will probably have to replace the entire chip R&D team.
