Chapter 91 Verification of the success of 14nm, the launch price of the new machine announced
It was as quiet as death, as if entering a deserted library late at night, or in a morgue in the early morning.
The QZ-14 model has a romantic name unique to the people of the Dragon Kingdom.
QZ Qingzhou, 14 nanometers, is simple and clear, just like the original KT-001, KT Kaitian, and 001, the first 4G baseband chip. The names of the two have the same purpose.
After a few seconds of dead silence, Lin Xiaolong, one of Huaqiangbei’s top computer developers and a millionaire blogger, suddenly stood up, blushed and shouted:
“Longxing Technology is awesome! Qingzhou The processor is far ahead!"
His hysterical voice infected hundreds of viewers around him.
One person!
Ten!
Hundreds!
More and more spectators stood up and gave their most sincere cheers for this meaningful chip.
"Mr. Chen is awesome! Qingzhou is awesome! Longxing Technology is awesome!"
"Longxing! Longxing! The Dragon Kingdom is prosperous!"
"Qingzhou We have passed the Ten Thousand Mountains, and no one can stop Longxing Technology from setting sail. I, Zhang Wei, have booked ten brilliant X1 mobile phones!”
“The Snapdragon 810 processor is only 20 nanometers, and our Qingzhou processor is directly 14 nanometers. Ahead! We are far ahead!"
"A long way ahead!" Thousands of words gathered in their hearts, and thousands of people spontaneously expressed their gratitude to Qingzhou Processor. shout.
“Far ahead!!!”
“Far ahead!!!”
“Far ahead!!!”
Not only the North Banquet Hall, but also dozens of live broadcast rooms that are still live broadcasting are now flooded with "far ahead", and white barrages occupy the entire live broadcast room.
Hearing the uniform shouts that stung the eardrums, Ku Ke turned around slightly and looked sideways at the faces that were blushing and still shouting. He couldn't help but feel shocked in his heart. He felt a little I can’t understand. Isn’t it the first to release 14nm chips?
Is it okay to be so enthusiastic?
However!
He doesn’t understand at all!
Because he is an American company, he does not understand the difficulties faced by restrictions on the purchase of photolithography machines and sanctions on patented technologies.
He also couldn’t understand the frustration of having to spend money to buy imported equipment, but still have to be restricted by others, and the manufacturer could stop whenever he wanted.
Of the 500 invitations sent by Chen Xing, 400 were sent to scientific researchers, inviting them to come and witness together.
Experts in various fields from the Shenzhen Dragon Science Academy are scattered throughout the North Banquet Hall. They may all know the feeling of being sanctioned.
If you have never experienced darkness, you will feel that everything is bright.
But if you have experienced darkness, you will appreciate the preciousness of light.
The 14nm Qingzhou processor, when it was controlled by others in various fields such as Longguo's high-precision machine tools, automobile production equipment, and photolithography machines, actually overtook others in a corner. This was no less than piercing the darkness that shrouded the sky. This hole gives them, the scientific research warriors, hope.
"Far ahead..."
Li Zhenzhen murmured to herself, thinking about the meaning of these four words.
Referring to the chip?
Or do you mean something else?
Rebus, Ren Guofei, Yang Zhi, Luo Hao and other manufacturer CEOs could not help but cheer for Chen Xing.
With the advent of 14nm processors, Gaotong’s hegemony is coming to an end!
The baseband chip includes KT-001!
Processor chip, there is QZ-14!
When these two chips are combined, is it still far away from the first purely domestic SoC system-level chip?
Molenkov’s face was gloomy, and the joy around him had nothing to do with him. He even wanted to go on stage to crack down on counterfeit Qingzhou processors.
But he didn't dare...
Now the audience is so enthusiastic that they run up to fight against the fake?
What you are trying to counterfeit is the chip, but they don’t know what it is.
Sitting on the far left side of the first row, TSMC CEO Zhang Miu also fell silent. He racked his brains and couldn't figure out how Longxing Technology developed and produced its own 14-nanometer chip?
When Chen Xing came to TSMC to find him for OEM work, he also checked the details. It was a technology company on the verge of bankruptcy.
In just half a year, you have your own chip factory?
Impossible!
How to build an EUV lithography machine?
Could it be that the situation is similar to that of Camel Country, where nuclear bombs were dug out in the desert and came with Chinese instructions?
If Chen Xing did not lie, then there is a high probability that the Dutch company ASML secretly sold an EUV lithography machine to Longxing Technology. Otherwise, this 14-nanometer chip cannot be explained. TSMC really has no representative. work!
Gao Yongming, who knew everything, cheered and shouted, and looked at Zhang Miao, Molenkov and Ku Ke from time to time. Looking at their confused expressions, he felt so happy and comfortable.
If it weren't for the sake of confidentiality, he would really like to ride on their faces and output.
Isn’t it 14 nanometers?
As long as they have the help of honorary chief Lin Tian, they, Longxing International, can still make even a 7-nanometer chip!
……
Podium for press conference.
Because Chen Xing was facing the entire audience, he had the strongest visual impact when he looked at the faces shouting "far ahead".
After being sanctioned by the West for a long time, everyone is suffocating in their hearts!
But tonight...
It! Far ahead indeed!
Chen Xing closed his eyes, sorted out his thoughts, reopened his eyes and concluded: "The 14nm Qingzhou processor is indeed far ahead, but it's not true. Let's go directly to the chip test! ”
He knows very well that releasing a 14-nanometer processor chip is not just a matter of words, it must also go through a series of evaluation and certification.
To put it bluntly.
The evaluation is to make friends and colleagues believe that this is a real 14nm chip, not a PPT core.
At least ten of the company CEOs who came to the scene tonight were waiting to see Chen Xing’s joke after he failed in the chip evaluation.
Even if he doesn't mention the evaluation, the group of corporate CEOs who are waiting to see the joke will take the lead and ask him to evaluate the processor chip.
Instead of them coming to crack down on counterfeiting, why not prove it yourself first!
Self-certification is a sign of confidence and strength!
When Chen Xing finished speaking, the shouts of "far ahead" from the audience gradually subsided. They all wanted to see how Chen Xing would evaluate.
However, at this moment, Molenkov couldn't hold it any longer, stood up and took out a small device and said: "I have professional chip nanometer testing equipment here. If Chen..."
< br> Before he finished speaking, Chen Xing ignored him and looked at Rebus and said: "In terms of mobile phone performance, I really like Mr. Lei's words. Don't you agree? Then let's run a test. Tonight we Also score the boat! ”
Computer score.
Mobile phone scores.
Benchmark scores, this is how even novices can clearly understand the configuration performance.
You may not understand configuration or performance matching, but you can always understand the scores from the evaluation software, right?
Benchmark software is very popular among novices, especially novice computer users, because it can intuitively see the configuration performance.
Hearing this, Rebus couldn't help but pray in his heart: "You can score as many points as you want, but don't compare it with my brand. Rice can't compare to Qi's high-end flagship!"
Molenkov was a little embarrassed to be ignored, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Chen Xing is already generous enough to let him come in to attend the press conference, but you still want to use your own equipment to test the chip?
Are you losing your mind? ? ?
What to do if the core technology is leaked?
Since there is a benchmark now, it is naturally impossible for Chen Xing to benchmark mid-to-low-end models, so he pressed the remote control, switched to the PPT page on the screen and said: "Before the brilliant X1 benchmarks, let's do Compare the running score data of this friend’s mobile phone.”
On the large-screen PPT page, although the name of the friend’s phone is, the picture is of an Apple 6 phone, without naming it, but at a glance. You can tell who you are comparing it to.
When Puke saw his own brand mobile phone, his heart skipped a beat.
Target Apple?
No, are you serious?
This confidence in benchmarking Apple's A-series processors has convinced him that Longxing Technology may have really created a 14nm processor chip. Before he could offer his opinion, Chen Xing looked at the audience again and said: "We won't look at other configurations of the friend's mobile phone. We mainly look at the running scores of its processor chip."
"Well! 104,000, An Moutu processor currently ranks first in score. You can also open their software to witness the first performance score of Qingzhou processor."
"Oh, by the way, An Mou If the official staff of Rabbit saw my advertisement, please contact me to pay the corresponding advertising fee, thank you.”
Chen Xing made a joke, which made the audience unable to hold back, and at the same time, he also brightened the X1 mobile phone screen. Cast the screen, and then go to the browser to download a certain Tutu evaluation and benchmarking software.
The entire process is recorded, without any fraud, and the installation packages are all freshly downloaded from the official website.
When Lin Xiaolong saw this scene, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "I never imagined that a new product launch conference could be used to run scores on the spot. Chen has finally carried forward the score-running culture."
As soon as he finished speaking, tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room started making comments.
“A group of technology tycoons use benchmarking software to compare and evaluate chips. I have to say that Mr. Chen has to do it!”
“Hahaha, it’s the simplest and crudest way. The only way to win the hearts of the people is!"
"It made me laugh! An Moutu’s performance was the explosive operation of the year!"
"Pu Ke must have made people crazy. Things in the digital technology circle are confirmed by software benchmarking. If you don’t understand, who will win between the Apple 6 and the brilliant X1? ”
"As long as Qingzhou has a 14nm chip, the brilliant X1 mobile phone will be the best!"
When Chen Xing downloaded the benchmark software, the entry "Qingzhou Processor" had already appeared on Weibo's hot search list, and his press conference The live scores were also posted online.
[Stars Twinkling]: "My family, who knows! During the 14nm chip verification process, Mr. Chen actually used the benchmarking software to run the verification!"
[Drowsy]: " @安 Moutu, Mr. Chen asked you to spend money, don’t waste advertising money, do something yourself!”
[Love the night]: “Hahaha! Download the software on the spot, run the score on the spot, Lei Bu! Si Zhihu is very knowledgeable. This wave of friends are panicking. Do they want to do a benchmark in future press conferences? "
[Large size shoes]: "Forget the benchmark, the key is still the pants. Sitting in the audience, this wave is about killing people in front of you!”
While netizens were discussing the live score and giving Chen Xing crazy likes and comments, Chen Xing had already downloaded the score software. .
Installation completed.
Open the software.
Start running scores.
His operations were so smooth that Rebus gave him a thumbs up when he saw it. You are the expert at running points during press conferences!
Put Ke raised his heart to his throat and stopped breathing. He looked at the screen attentively. He wanted to know what the final score was.
Molenkov, who was sitting in the fourth row, shook his head helplessly when he saw Chen Xing commenting in such an unprofessional way.
Benchmark?
Is it more accurate than direct detection?
Barbarian evaluation method!
After waiting for up to three minutes, the moment the benchmark page ended, the final score of the Qingzhou processor was also displayed in front of everyone.
Processor score: 176,000!
In a flash.
The unknown processor identification rushed up to An Moutu’s score ranking list.
At An Moutu's headquarters in the imperial capital, the programmer responsible for checking the data was confused. Why was there suddenly an unknown processor? He even achieved a score of 170,000 points!
Hackers causing trouble?
Or is it a system failure?
Just when he wanted to adjust the data, other programmers around him quickly reminded: "Don't delete it, this is the Qingzhou processor!"
"Qingzhou processor?"
"Don't look at me, I don't understand. Anyway, it was launched by Longxing Technology Company."
"What should we do now?"
"What else can we do, mark it! ”
An Moutu’s programmer quickly labeled the “unknown processor” as a boat.
At the Shenzhen press conference, the comparison chart was already displayed on the big screen.
Apple A series processor, 100,000 points.
Qingzhou processor, 170,000 points.
The difference of 70,000 points, there is no need to say anything more!
"It's really 14 nanometers..."
Rebus couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes. It was still 170,000. The fact was already in front of him.
Except for 14-nanometer chips, 20-nanometer chips simply cannot lead Apple's A-series processors by 70,000 points. The result is already obvious. The Qingzhou processor is a 14-nanometer chip.
"This is really far ahead."
Luo Hao looked at the running scores on the screen, feeling a little dazed.
This is too perverted!
They are still buying 20nm chips. Have you, Chen Xing, successfully developed 14nm chips by yourself?
They are both mobile phone technology companies, why is the gap so big?
Even if Pou Ke and Li Zhenzhen didn’t want to believe it, the moment they saw the software benchmark, they could only admit that the brilliant X1 mobile phone did use a 14nm processor chip.
70,000 points ahead, which means that performance has been greatly improved.
If it is a 20nm chip, it is impossible to widen the gap, so now they can only admit that the Qingzhou processor is a 14nm process to achieve such a large performance improvement.
The moment TSMC CEO Zhang Miao saw the processor benchmarks, he had already identified the "werewolf" as the Dutch ASML company. They secretly sold EUV lithography machines to Longxing Technology Company to produce the 14nm Qingzhou processor chip.
“Far ahead!!!”
After the Qingzhou processor’s benchmark scores were announced, the audience once again spontaneously shouted “Far ahead”!
Molenkov in the fourth row couldn't sit still. If the software score has not been modified, then the 14-nanometer chip has been confirmed and Chen Xing has indeed built it.
But!
He wants to verify!
When the shouting and cheering subsided, he stood up again and said: "I think there may be cheating. I have..."
"The flagship price will be announced below."
Chen Xing ignored it again Mollenkopf didn't give him any pictures at all.
As soon as the price was announced, the audience immediately became enthusiastic and began to shout out the price in their hearts.
“6000!”
“5000!”
“5999!”
Lin Xiaolong listened to the quotes from people around him and shouted boldly: "4999 yuan!"
The words just finished.
Even he couldn't hold himself tight.
4999 yuan is probably not even the cost price. After all, the configuration of the Cuican X1 is too bright. It not only has 200W star flash fast charging, 4500 mAh large battery, Carl Zeiss camera, Qingzhou processor chip...
Not to mention 4999, you may not be able to win even 5999 yuan!
Chen Xing did not show off. He took a few steps to the right side of the podium to avoid blocking the price announcement.
“Without further ado, we will directly announce the launch price of the Brilliant X1 mobile phone, please look at the screen.”
The words fell.
He pressed the remote control.
On the top of the PPT screen on the big screen, three sets of numbers suddenly dropped, and the release price of the brilliant X1 mobile phone was also marked.
Cuican X1 regular version, 4+32G, 6999 yuan.
Cuican X1 high-end version, 4+64G, 7499 yuan.
Cuican X1 top version, 4+128G, 7999 yuan.
