Black technology, starting from daily check-in

In the heated discussion of countless Chinese people, the time came to around eight o'clock in the evening.

At this time, it happened to be the time when the Spring Festival Gala was broadcast.

However, compared to the annual Spring Festival Gala, people from countless countries still like to continue to discuss issues related to the Godson-I on the official website of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences.

Even many insiders in the chip industry went to the official website of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences to keep asking questions about the Godson-i.

And these problems, there are mainly two.

The first is the production problem of Godson-i, whether it has been solved, and when will it be mass-produced.

The second is whether the production of Godson-i requires the use of lithography machines, as well as many mechanical equipment that are currently restricted by foreign chip companies.

After a moment of silence, the Huaxia Academy of Sciences sent out a newsletter to answer the questions most concerned by these industry insiders.

"First of all, we have made it very clear that the Godson-i is not a chip in the traditional sense, it uses a new structure and new materials, so we don't need photolithography machines at all, and those who make silicon-based chips mechanical equipment."

"As for the mass production question that everyone asked, yes, we have already solved it, and it can be put into production around March this year at the earliest."

When this news from the Huaxia Academy of Sciences was released, many people in the industry were immediately excited after reading it.

"Damn it! It's awesome, it's actually mass-produced!"

"Hey, I always thought that the Godson-I should only be in the experimental stage, but I didn't expect it to be put into production after two months. This is simply a miracle!"

"And the most important thing is that the Godson-I doesn't need lithography machines and those mechanical equipment from the United States, which is very nice!"

"Is this the legend that if you don't take us to play, then we will start anew and play by ourselves?"

"Hey, not long ago, the foreign chip industry was still ahead of us. As a result, the Huaxia Academy of Sciences overtook them in a corner, and they were thrown to the ends of the world."

"I laughed. Foreign chip companies always said that we can't produce top-notch lithography machines, and how difficult it is to say that lithography machines are so difficult. Now, we don't need to use them at all, and let them play with backward silicon-based lithography machines. Chip go."

"Tsk tsk, I don't know how As will feel after seeing this post, I think that expression should be quite exciting."

"I'll go, it will be put into production in March this year at the earliest. Doesn't that mean that we can buy mobile phones equipped with Godson i in March or April?!"

"That's right, I just don't know how much it costs. Such an awesome chip must be very expensive."

"I think that since the performance of the Godson-i is so strong, it may be used in other industries first. As for the mobile phone field, it should take a while."

.........

And just when the Chinese people were happily discussing the data of the Godson-i.

All the giant companies in the entire chip industry are now one big and two big.

U.S. time, around ten o'clock in the morning.

Apple headquarters.

As the current president of Apple, Cook was in a good mood today.

However, his good mood completely disappeared after seeing the urgent message from his subordinates.

"what the fuck?!"

Looking at the dynamic and detailed data about the Godson-i released by the Huaxia Academy of Sciences on the laptop, Cook's eyes widened and he couldn't help but swear.

oh!damn it!

what is happening!

Why did Huaxia suddenly have this kind of black technology chip overnight!

After recovering, Cook threw the laptop to the subordinate next to him with an ugly face, and said in a cold tone: "Immediately, immediately, call all the senior management to attend an emergency meeting!!"

After all, Cook walked quickly towards the conference room with a gloomy expression.

Soon, with Cook's order issued.

All Apple executives who didn't know anything rushed to the conference room for an emergency meeting.

in the conference room.

All Apple executives sat in front of the huge round conference table, staring at the projection screen directly in front of them.

At this time, the content on the screen is very concise, only two short pages.

However, these two pages happen to be the two dynamics released by the Huaxia Academy of Sciences.

And when all Apple executives began to look at the content in the screen, their faces became more and more ugly.

"Fuck! What the hell is this neuron-like chip! How can this kind of performance exist!"

After seeing the cpu data in front of the Godson-i, an Apple executive couldn't help but swear, and his tone was full of unbelievable.

"If it is true, the performance of this neuron-like chip will be about five times that of our current a12 chip."

Another Apple executive said with the same ugly face.

As soon as this sentence came out, the entire conference room was suddenly dead silent.

No one spoke anymore, and they all continued to read with solemn expressions.

However, this dead silence did not last long, and it was broken by the Godson-i GPU, the perfectly compatible new architecture, and patent issues.

"How is it possible! Their research and development speed of this imitation neuron chip is too fast!"

An Apple executive couldn't help but exclaimed.

gpu!

This neuron-like chip not only handles the CPU, but even the GPU!

Hearing this, a high-level technical executive said with a gloomy face: "We should all know that it is not difficult to develop GPUs. The difficult thing is to bypass the existing patent wall and develop GPUs suitable for current software."

"And this neuron-like chip may really use a completely different architecture as the Huaxia Academy of Sciences said, so they are not subject to any restrictions in terms of patents."

"In this way, since they can design a Godson-I CPU, it is not difficult to design a GPU with the same performance."

As we all know, chip companies such as Nvidia and a have built a Great Wall of patents for their own interests.

It is not easy for any company to break through this patent Great Wall.

But now, the neuron-like chip released by the Huaxia Academy of Sciences is like an atomic bomb, directly blasting the Great Wall of patents to nothing left.

Therefore, the explanation of Apple's senior technical director did not make everyone feel better, but made them heavier.

Especially when they saw that the neuron-like chip did not need a lithography machine, and the mass production problem had been solved, their original heavy mood became even worse.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire meeting room became extremely heavy.

And in this dull and depressing atmosphere, all the senior executives of Apple looked so ugly that they could not speak.

No way, they were really hit by the neuron chip of Huaxia Academy of Sciences.

It is no exaggeration to say that once the neuron-like chip of Huaxia Academy of Sciences is put into production, the chip industry around the world will be impacted like a magnitude [-] earthquake!

Moreover, the first to bear the brunt are giant companies in the chip industry like them!

You know, before this neuron-like chip appeared, China's imports of chips from all over the world accounted for 66.67% of the entire chip market!

Among the 66.67% of the purchases, the United States naturally contributed the most, accounting for 38.5%, which is 1200 billion US dollars.

Secondly, the second largest contributor is the country of kimchi, accounting for 32%, which is about 1000 billion U.S. dollars.

In other words, when China's neuron-like chips are put into production in March this year, the import value of the entire chip market will be greatly reduced!

This also means that the large number of chips produced by the United States and the Kimchi Country as originally planned will all be unsalable and left to mold in the warehouse.

By then, tens of thousands of workers will surely lose their jobs.

Even, with the passage of time, the entire chip industry will undergo earth-shaking changes, and countless large chip foundries will go bankrupt!

And company giants like them who originally stood at the top of the pyramid of the chip industry, I am afraid that by then, they will be completely reduced to stepping stones for Huaxia's neuron-like chips!

Thinking of this, all the top executives of Apple became secretly anxious.

at this time.

Cook coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention.

Under the gaze of everyone, Cook looked serious and said in a heavy tone: "Guys, we are in big trouble."

Yes, big trouble.

And it's not just Apple's big trouble, it's big trouble for all chip giants.

As for why it is not said to be a matter of life and death, it is because the neuron-like chip has not yet been fully developed.

They still have room to maneuver.

Speaking, Cook continued: "Although Huaxia Academy of Sciences has developed a neuron-like chip, they have not yet entered the mass production stage."

"Even in the field of mobile phones, Huaxia's companies should still need to do chip debugging. We can take this opportunity to sell the latest generation of the a13 chip for Apple mobile phones, and then continue to develop the a14 chip."

"In addition, I suggest to join forces with other chip companies such as Intel, Nvidia, and a to suppress all companies that may have neuron-like chip configurations in China in the future."

Huaxia Academy of Sciences revealed a lot of information in terms of dynamics.

Among them, the Godson-i not only handles the GPU, but it can also be carried on mobile platforms and desktop platforms.

This kind of operation undoubtedly killed Nvidia and a.

It can be said that once the Godson-i is born, no matter whether it is Apple, Intel, A, or Nvidia, they will not sit still.

This also means that the interests of these chip company giants are the same.

Because if China's domestic chip companies are allowed to rise, then these chip giants will be swept into the garbage dump of chip history, and no one cares about them.

Therefore, they must unite.

"Yes! Just do it!"

"That's right, although Huaxia's neuron-like chips are really powerful, we still occupy a dominant position in the chip industry, so we must suppress them!"

"Yes, let them go! The chip market is ours!"

"Even if their chips are more powerful, but their operating system and ecological problems have not been solved, they are also not our opponents for Apple mobile phones!"

.........

As Cook's voice fell, many Apple executives nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then I will contact Intel and them now!"

Seeing this scene, Cook nodded, immediately announced the end of the meeting, and then walked quickly outside.

at the same time.

Just when many foreign chip company giants are preparing to unite.

China's domestic chip companies have also begun to become lively.

Warwick corporate headquarters.

As the current president of Warwick, Ren Zhengfei went to the official website of Huaxia Academy of Sciences to inquire as soon as he received the news about the neuron-like chip in the news broadcast.

And when he saw the detailed data of Godson-i, after the reunion dinner at home, he didn't care about anything else, and went back to the company overnight, and started to hold an emergency meeting of high-level officials.

The duration of the whole meeting is very short, and the content of the meeting is very small, only one.

That is to get in touch with Lin Yu, the president of Huanyu Technology Company, or Huaxia Academy of Sciences as soon as possible.

As for the purpose, it is very simple, that is to obtain the right to use the Godson i number in the field of mobile phones.

It can be said that all chip companies in China now hope that they can become the spokesperson of Godson-i.

Especially Warwick.

For Huawei, which does not have a strong foreign investment background, it needs Godson-i more urgently than any other chip company.

You should know that Huawei's chip model belongs to the category of fabless (waferless manufacturing design), which is only responsible for the circuit design and sales of chips.

Others, such as production, testing, and packaging, are all outsourced to other manufacturers.

In the process of designing chips, Huawei even adopted the EDA software of foreign giants to design chips.

If foreign chip companies start with eda software, Huawei can use it without the latest version of eda software.

In addition, in the AR framework authorization, Huawei also does not have any right to speak.

In addition, Warwick's chips are manufactured by TSMC, but TSMC uses semiconductor equipment from the United States to produce chips.

Not only that, major chip foundries such as SMIC, Samsung, GlobalFoundries, and UMC all use a large number of semiconductor equipment from the United States.

There is no way, because the share of the United States in the field of semiconductor equipment exceeds 50%.

Especially in the fields of deposition, etching, ion implantation, c, and film development, the advantages are obvious, and everyone uses equipment from the United States.

As a result, before the appearance of the Godson-i, Huawei was extremely dependent on foreign chip systems.

Even, as long as foreign hostile forces want to suppress, Warwick will be in trouble.

However, it is different now. When Godson-i appears, all the problems that plagued Huawei can be solved easily!

Therefore, in the face of such great benefits, how could Huawei not be in a hurry.

CEO's office.

In the brightly lit room, Ren Zhengfei stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, frowning and looking at the lights of Wanjia in the distance, wondering what he was thinking.

"Dong dong dong."

Suddenly, there was a heavy knock on the door.

"Come in."

Ren Zhengfei came back to his senses, and after saying something, he turned and looked towards the door.

Soon, the manager Song You walked in quickly, and said excitedly: "Mr. Ren, Huaxia Academy of Sciences and Huanyu Technology Company have replied!"

"How do you say, did they agree?"

Ren Zhengfei's eyes lit up, and he regained his energy immediately.

"No consent."

Manager Song You said with a smile on his face: "They said that for the use of Godson-i, you need to ask Mr. Lin first. However, they told me that if Mr. Lin agrees, then they will give priority to Huawei Huawei!"

"Good! Great!"

After listening to Song You's words, Ren Zhengfei, who was originally gloomy, suddenly burst into laughter.

To be honest, he himself is not very optimistic about asking about the right to use the Godson-I.

However, since the opportunity is in front of him, no matter what he says, he will go up and give it a try.

Therefore, he originally thought that the higher-ups would reject him with polite words that neither agreed nor rejected.

However, what he never expected was that the higher-ups would say that Warwick was the first choice.

You know, since the above said such things, they must have a good impression of Warwick.

Of course, this favorability must be related to their lack of strong foreign investment background.

Thinking of this, Ren Zhengfei also said in a good mood: "By the way, if there is any latest news from Mr. Lin, remember to notify me immediately."

"Ok!"
