The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 329 Personal Computer
After receiving the information from the United States, Li Jianhui felt sad for a while. lBM has officially launched the first personal computer, and his office area has not yet been built.

As for the technical reserves of hardware and software, they are also far from IBM's 5150, which uses the Intel 8088 microprocessor and the Microsoft operating system.

The Phoenix Group's operating system is still under development. Although the Huaxin Group has been paying close attention to public relations in terms of processors, there is still some gap between Intel 8088 and Intel [-].

On the contrary, in terms of spreadsheet software, because of Li Jianhui's guidance, it is much better than Microsoft's.

The Phoenix Science and Technology Park was working overtime on construction, and Li Jianhui did not continue to catch up with the progress.

In order not to make the performance of the first personal computer developed by Phoenix Group far behind that of IBM, Li Jianhui went to Huaxin Science and Technology Park in the afternoon of the same day to learn about the development of Huaxin 200 microprocessor.

In the R&D room, Group President Yang Chengbin personally reported the current R&D progress to Li Jianhui.

Huaxin 200, like Intel, is currently using 16-bit system. This is not because Li Jianhui does not want to use 32-bit and 64-bit. It is mainly due to hardware technology. At present, 16-bit is very advanced. You need to know how many years Former Li Jianhui arcade machines also use 8-bit microprocessors.

Moreover, Li Jianhui urgently needs a mature microprocessor to provide support for the planned Phoenix computer. The 32-bit or even 64-bit microprocessor will not be developed until the Huaxin 200 technology is mature.

"Constrained by our own technical reasons, and the lack of talents in this field in Xiangjiang, even though we have recruited a lot of talents in Western Europe, North America, Japan, Taiwan and other places, the progress of research and development is not very satisfactory.

Fortunately, Lanfeng Technology in London has given us a lot of technical support. Huaxin 200 is expected to complete the R&D design and testing work by the end of the year, and start mass production. "

Listening to Yang Chengbin's report, Li Jianhui was also very helpless. Before Xiangjiang, there were only Xiangjiang University and Xiangjiang Chinese University, both of which were biased towards liberal arts, and there were basically no talents in this field.

In this regard, Huaxin Technology is far inferior to Lanfeng Technology. The other party is headquartered in London and has the support of many universities in England. Talent is not a problem, and the microprocessor technology has only just started. Technology is not considered in front of professional elites. It is too difficult, as long as the funds are in place and there are clear goals, it is not very difficult to develop it.

Li Jianhui asked Zhou Pengfei to establish Lanfeng Technology, so that some technical research and development difficulties in Xiangjiang would be handled by Lanfeng Technology. At that time, no matter whether it was technology transfer or technology authorization, it would be his company anyway, but it was left handed and right handed. .

"Cheng Bin, I also know that there is indeed a lack of professional talents in the group at present, but you have to take the initiative to attack, and you can't always think about relying on the support of Lanfeng Technology.

Although we currently have a good relationship with Lanfeng Holdings, we are not a family after all. I hope you can firmly hold the technology in your own hands.

Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology has started school, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Hong Kong City University are expected to formally enroll students in September next year, and our Xinjian University has also started construction.

Huaxin Technology Group needs to establish a good relationship with these universities, especially the majors related to electronic semiconductors.

You can go to talk to the school, build a research room with them, provide them with research funding, and announce the acquisition of related technologies.

At the same time, it also cultivates and excavates outstanding talents for the group, so that these elites can join our group after graduation.

Not only our schools in Hong Kong, but also famous schools in Taiwan and the mainland can give it a try, such as Tsinghua University in Taiwan, Tsinghua University and Chengdian University in the mainland. "

If Huaxin Group and even these technology R&D groups under the Xinjian Department want to become world-class enterprises, it is far from enough to rely on Xiangjiang talents.

Li Jianhui has long had a plan in this regard. He once tentatively asked the high-level Xinjian industry in the mainland whether it can recruit employees in mainland colleges and universities to prepare for this aspect.

On the bright side, the high-tech enterprises of the Xinjian Department want to develop, and more can only rely on the elite talents of Xiangjiang and mainland universities.

During this period, the mainland did not pay too much attention to patented technology. Li Jianhui provided research funds for it, and only needed patents and achievements. This should not be a problem.

However, these are far-flung water that cannot quench near-thirst. In the past two years, Huaxin Technology has mainly relied on the help of Lanfeng Technology in research and development.

Unlike Huaxin Technology, Lanfeng Technology is more about design and development, they are not engaged in production, and the business in this area will be handed over to Shinco Group, which is mainly engaged in chip production.

Therefore, Lanfeng Technology puts its main energy on research and development, and with the blessing of elite personnel, it is also developing a 16-bit microprocessor. The BM1066 under Lanfeng Technology is much faster than Huaxin 200.

The other party expects to complete the research and development test before September and put it on the market in October, and the first customer of the other party is the first-generation personal computer of Lilan Technology.

Although this Lilan Technology is not very well-known at the moment, the shareholders behind it are not small. The largest shareholder is Lipp Holdings, a newly emerging comprehensive group in England. In addition, Lanfeng Holdings, Grosvenor Financial Group, and Andrew Holdings ( Cavendish family) are shareholders of this company.

The establishment of companies such as Lanfeng Technology and Leland Technology is also considered by the outside world to be the beginning of the British Rose Consortium's entry into the computer hardware and software industry.

As the leader in this regard, the United States is obviously feeling a lot of pressure. Although there is no product yet, both the Donghua Consortium and the Rose Consortium are aggressive, and these two consortiums are still allies.

The launch of these two products will inevitably seize the markets in Asia and Western Europe, and seriously crowd out the interests of American companies.

It's just that the main energy of the United States is now being restrained by the Soviet Union and Japan. In addition, the Donghua Consortium and the Rose Consortium do not have much business in the US market, so it is not easy for them to suppress it.

The only thing that makes American companies feel more at ease is that the United States is far ahead of other places in terms of network speed construction and market, and their advantages in personal computer development far exceed Xiangjiang and London.

Even some American giants have been reflecting on whether it is right or wrong to continue this stalemate with Japanese companies. London and Xiangjiang have already stood in the same position as New York and are called the world's three major financial centers.

In terms of high technology, especially electronic semiconductors, Japan has not suppressed it yet, and London and Xiangjiang have taken advantage of the trend to rise again.

If it continues like this, I'm afraid that the snipe and clam will fight for the fisherman's benefit, and Ying Lun and Xiangjiang will take advantage of it.

The United States has never underestimated its former suzerain country. As a former world hegemon, even though it has fallen a bit in the past few decades, it is still one of the world's powerful countries.

Many of its domestic companies and technologies are still among the top in the world, such as the current fierce competition in the U.S. and Japan's auto industry in the U.S. market.

Regardless of the fierce rivalry between the two, the British brand has always occupied the top spot in the US luxury car market, especially Jaguar, or Jaguar, which has been the sales champion in the US luxury car market for several years.

Originally, the U.S. thought that the British side was slow to respond to this new round of development trend, and the U.S. could keep it far away. Who would have thought that a large amount of British capital had entered this industry over the past year, and was obviously unwilling to miss this development trend.

Li Jianhui is obviously not clear, because of his own butterfly effect, some so-called elites in the United States are planning to not only make Donghua lose its foundation for development, but also make England lose the untapped market of one billion people in the East.
