Chapter 157 Excitement Overseas

The birth of the Godson Group made the performance of silicon-based chips directly reach the theoretical physical limit.

Determine its absolute position in the semiconductor market.

Therefore, the two fabs, Sanxing and TSMC, which originally possessed the most advanced chip manufacturing technology, suddenly fell out of the public's sight, and their own high-end chip foundry orders were all snatched by the Godson Group.

In this case, they can only choose to save themselves and develop carbon-based chips with higher performance.

After all, the development of silicon-based chips has come to an end, and a new research and development route must be taken to achieve overtaking.

With the help of the rich experience accumulated in the field of carbon-based chips, and the sincere cooperation between the R&D personnel of the two parties, a breakthrough has finally been achieved.

They have successfully developed carbon-based chips that can be mass-produced.

And after testing this chip, its performance far exceeds that of a 1-nanometer silicon-based chip.

Although carbon-based chips are slightly more expensive than traditional silicon-based chips in terms of cost and price, there is no doubt that they have the qualifications to re-compete with Godson Group and compete for the supremacy of the semiconductor industry.

So after going through various tests and research to prove the feasibility of the carbon-based chip, Shuangyi officially announced this milestone research result.

No exaggeration to say.

This news was like a blockbuster, instantly stirring up a turmoil in the industry.

In addition to Qualcomm Pingguo who came to inquire immediately, Gu Geweiruan and other parties publicly expressed their congratulations.

The global semiconductor industry, which was originally calm, fell into chaos again.

……

Liganife.

Pingguo spacecraft headquarters building.

"It's really great. This time I see what else Warwick can compete with us."

Kulas, who was the CEO in the office, looked excited and didn't care about his image at all, shouting so in front of his subordinates.

The main reason is that I haven't thought of being so happy today for a long time.

Some can't control their emotions.

Looking at this period of time, Kulas is either depressed by the sodium-ion battery or worried by the solid-state battery of future technology. Seeing that the company's share in the high-end market is gradually occupied by Huawei.

The key is that he still has no good way to deal with it.

Until today, he learned a piece of good news that was exciting enough.

TSMC has conquered the carbon-based chip production process, and the chip performance has completely surpassed the silicon-based chip of the Godson Group.

This means that they have regained control of high-end chips.

As long as mobile phones equipped with carbon-based chips are released at that time, the core competitiveness of its own brand will be re-formed and the occupied high-end mobile phone market will be regained.

It lasted for about 1 minute, and saw that Kulas's mood gradually calmed down, and then he spoke to Mel in front of him and said: "Get in touch with the manufacturer as soon as possible, this time we have to re-arrange the Asian district market."

"Report to the boss."

"Stock Semiconductor has already stated that it will give priority to the production of carbon-based chips for us."

"If nothing else, we will become the first mobile phone brand company to use carbon-based chips."

"very good."

After listening to Mel's answer, Kuras immediately affirmed her work, and at the same time, the confidence on her face grew stronger.

It seems that I have already seen the picture of Pingguo mobile phone galloping in the Asian market again in my mind.

It is just around the corner that Pingguo will return to its dominant position in the industry.

But at this moment, Mel raised a new thorny question.

"boss."

"Although the performance of carbon-based chips far exceeds that of silicon-based chips, the cost and price have also increased accordingly."

"If this leads to an increase in the price of mobile phones, will it lead to the loss of users?"

As the saying goes, from frugality to luxury is easy and from luxury to frugality is difficult. Users are used to the preferential prices of Pingguo mobile phones. If the price rises again due to the increase in chip costs, it is inevitable that some people will not buy it. In this way, the attractiveness of carbon-based chips will also decrease. .

It has to be said that Mel's worry is still reasonable, and he doesn't want to see his mobile phone fail again in the market.

Hearing the sound, Kulas's face became a little dignified at first, and then he seemed to have made some important decision, and suddenly he said seriously: "The situation you mentioned really needs to be considered, but in order to regain market share, the price must not be changed this time. rise."

"Even if part of the profit is sacrificed, the original price must be maintained."

Kulas is well aware of the current situation of Pingguo. Without solid-state batteries, it is indeed difficult to fully suppress Huawei's flagship machine.

Anyway, in the long run, sacrificing some of the profits is still a good deal.

As long as Pingguo can regain its original position in the high-end market, it will only be so easy to make money back in the future.

In short, the wool comes from the sheep.

Kulas's decision naturally received strong support from Mel, who thought it was a very good idea, although it was a bit bold, it was extremely practical.

"I understand boss."

Following Mel's respectful response, he turned around and exited the office, and continued to discuss with the staff of ICMC about the OEM production of carbon-based chips.

As for Kulas, he still stayed in the office, enjoying this sense of comfort that he hadn't had for a long time.

And at the same time.

Ma Sien, who returned to Saskatchewan with anger, appeared in the security building in Washington State at this time.

Tesla was forced to withdraw from the sub-regional market because of the Xingyuan smart car, and even sold the newly built super factory. This account is all on Xu Lei's head, how can it be easily turned over? .

But the most important thing is to restrict Xingyuan smart cars from entering overseas markets, otherwise, I am afraid that Tesla will not even be able to keep its hometown.

Although due to the serious impact of charging centers and battery replacement stations on oil transactions, it is basically impossible to build future technologies overseas, but pure new energy vehicles have not yet been included in the restricted list.

After all, it didn't take long for Xingyuan Smart Car to go on the market.

However, during this trip to Binjiang City, Ma Sien deeply understood the powerful strength of future technology.

If Xingyuan smart cars are really allowed to enter the overseas market, with their powerful driverless mode, I am afraid that it will usher in a new major change in the industry.

I don't know how many local new energy vehicle brands will suffer.

The first to bear the brunt is their Tesla.

Having just experienced the failure of the sub-regional market, he must keep his base camp no matter what.

So Ma Sien came to Kaufman this time for this purpose.

"Mr. Kaufman, I hope you can let Xingyuan Smart Car, which restricts future technology, enter the overseas market."

"Otherwise this will have a great impact on our local new energy vehicle industry."

"In addition, our Starlink project can also carry out in-depth cooperation with you to fully prepare for changes in the future world pattern."

In the highest office of the security building, after seeing the person in charge Kaufman, Ma Sien did not beat around the bush, and directly expressed his purpose and sincerity.

It is worth mentioning that the Starlink project that Ma Sien mentioned is a project that he started to implement a few years ago.

According to the plan, thousands of satellites will be launched to form a star chain to provide satellite broadband services for the ground. This project is not only to counteract the domestic 5G network, but also can be used at various levels such as the military, and will have a serious impact on aerospace vehicles.

If used properly, it can certainly achieve unexpected results.

Now Ma Sien has publicly stated that he wants to cooperate with the military, which shows how much he attaches importance to Xingyuan smart cars.

I have to say that Ma Sien did find the right person this time.

Ever since the virus program intrusion happened last time, which made Future Technology's Internet security protection software Star Shield a must-have product for overseas users and small and medium-sized enterprises, Kaufman has been worrying about this matter and thinking about solutions.

After all, if so many people's terminal devices are installed with a product whose server is far outside and uncontrolled, whether user information data will be leaked is a problem.

Although they like to do it very much, it does not mean that they want their data to be leaked.

As Mike said earlier, this is very dangerous.

If it weren't for the fact that the encrypted data information needed Star Shield to be completely restored, he wouldn't have allowed Star Shield to grow to this scale.

Of course, during this period of time, their security building has not been idle at all. In addition to completely making up for the loopholes in the system to ensure that they will not be attacked by virus programs, they are also looking for opportunities to take Star Shield offline overseas.

Major future technologies are now involved in too many advanced technology industries, especially the production of high-end chips.

If there are restrictions on Star Shield, it will inevitably make the situation become unmanageable.

Until TSMC officially announced to conquer the carbon-based chip manufacturing process, Kaufman immediately understood that the opportunity to do it finally came.

So at this moment, after listening to Ma Sien's request, he immediately replied with a smile: "Don't worry, this time not only the new energy vehicles of future technology, but even Star Shield will be included in the list."

"This technology company is growing so fast that it has to be curbed."

"If necessary, we will fully cooperate." Seeing that his goal was achieved so easily, Ma Sien immediately got up and echoed.

Because they have been waiting for this day for a long time, there is nothing to delay the formal implementation process.

In a few days, Xingdun officially announced that its overseas version will be offline under the pretext of collecting user information. At the same time, Xingyuan smart cars are classified into charging centers and battery replacement stations, which are products that seriously affect crude oil transactions and are not conducive to social stability. Banned from North Magnesium.

In response to this announcement, many relevant forces have also expressed their acknowledgment.

However, when the news came back to China, neither Loongson Group nor Future Technology showed much surprise.

Although there is a surprise about this, it is not worried.

After all, the existence of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has always been prepared for danger in times of peace. In terms of technological development, it will not simply satisfy the status quo. Although under the leadership of Xu Lei, China has successfully developed a domestic top-level lithography machine, it has not stopped research on other areas of chips.

Almost when TSMC announced the capture of carbon-based chips, Xu Lei received a call from Yang Senping, and the two had an in-depth exchange on this.
