Reborn Millennial Gamer

Chapter 627 Who is in control of ups and downs (4K)

"In the future, traditional personal computers will disappear, and anything with a different shape can be a kind of computer."

"When these devices are interconnected, they will be combined into a super terminal, just like the 'Internet of Things' written by Gates in "The Road to the Future", the future will be the era of 'Internet of Things+'."

"I agree with Lu about the Internet of Things, but I disagree that traditional PCs will disappear. PCs are still the future of computers, and they are moving unprecedentedly toward mobility."

"Whether it's a tablet, a laptop, or a so-called large curved computer at home or something else, this general-purpose device will always be with us, and Logic's K1 is just one of the products, and there are many different products."

"Like Microsoft's netbook."

"It is worth mentioning that Microsoft will soon cooperate with Nokia to launch a 3G netbook, which is not inferior to K1 at all..."

Lu Fei and Bill Gates were talking on TV.

One side represents the tablet and the other represents the netbook.

One side represents Logic, and the other side represents Microsoft.

Those who don't know think that the two are like donkeys and two parties, and they are in the same situation. Those who know the relationship between the two think that the friendship is broken.

After all, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.

In short, the media of good things analyzed and interpreted the remarks of the two tech tycoons from various angles, and the topic became more and more popular.

"Bill Gates and Lu: Enemies and Confidants".

"Bill Gates VS Tony Lu, Double Stars Shine".

Netbooks or Tablets, Who Do You Like? "...

In the cabin, Lu Fei flipped through newspapers and saw various headlines full of gunpowder, and laughed:
"Haha, these titles are not bad, have our sales increased?"

Zhang Tianmei smiled and nodded: "Mr. Lu, whether it's Microsoft's netbooks or our tablet computers, the sales are all going up. The pre-sale of K1 is about to exceed 15 units."

Lu Fei smiled.

His struggle with Bill Gates is purely tacit.

The topics and attention of the two have all increased, and Bill Gates took the opportunity to throw out the heavy news that Microsoft and Nokia have jointly launched a netbook.

False business wars, planting spies, and internal strife.

Real business wars, fierce talk, and betting on the outcome.

Even like Musk and Zuckerberg's octagonal cage.

"Mr. Lu, when we arrive at Santa Clara, should we go to the hotel first, or go directly to Nvidia?" Zhang Tianmei asked.

"Has President Su arrived at Nvidia?"

Lu Fei took a sip of coffee and refreshed himself.

These days, in order to save the Nortel Networks bureau, I have been running around and making phone calls one by one to win over allies who are deeply bound to logic such as Microsoft, Google, and Huawei. As for sub-level partners such as Samsung and Blackstone, when the time comes Pick another one or two.

In case of leaks, the plan fell through.

"arrive."

Zhang Tianmei said: "Boss Su made preliminary contact with Huang Renxun two days earlier than our schedule, and it is said that he is quite sincere."

"Of course, he needs us so much right now."

Lu Fei drank the coffee in one gulp.

Nvidia can be described as a house leak and rain all night.

In the past, AMD acquired its old rival ATI, CPU integrated GPU, two swords combined, magic and martial arts.

Later, Intel terminated its cooperation with itself and went it alone on GPU, and its partners for many years instantly became the strongest competitors.

There are wolves in the front and tigers in the back. In desperation, Nvidia had to take the road of high-performance discrete graphics cards, but it stumbled——

Graphics cards have encountered an unprecedented quality crisis.

With the economic crisis, the revenue has plummeted, and the stock has been falling even more. From 37 US dollars, it has fallen below 10 US dollars all the way, and it has dropped to 8 US dollars, and it is diving towards 5 US dollars.

Nvidia needs good news too much!
Cooperate with Logic hand in hand with mobile devices, wish for it!
"Tianmei, go and inform President Su..."

After Lu Fei explained, the Gulfstream G450 arrived at the airport at noon, and the group went to the hotel to rest for a while, then rushed to Nvidia without stopping, and joined the team led by Su Zifeng.

"President Lu, President Su, welcome, welcome!"

Huang Renxun greeted him personally at the door of the company. As always, he was wearing a black leather jacket, a typical suit of a nuclear explosion maniac.

"Huang Dong, I think Mr. Su should have told you the purpose of my trip, right?"

Lu Fei looked at Su Zifeng on the left, and Huang Renxun on the right.

"Of course, of course, I am very grateful that Logic did not look for Intel, nor AMD, but gave Nvidia this opportunity."

Huang Renxun had an excited smile on his face.

"Although Intel is preparing to launch the Larrabee architecture that combines CPU and GPU, we are more inclined to follow Nvidia. After all, you have 16 years of experience in GPU."

Lu Fei took big strides and walked into the elevator.

Huang Renxun followed closely, standing on his left side: "Boss Lu is right, even if Intel can increase the graphics computing power by 10 times, it will not be able to surpass Nvidia, because we have more than 6000 employees. GPU, which only focuses on graphics and parallel computing technology, in my opinion, only by doing the least things can we do better than our opponents.”

"We thought so too."

Lu Fei, Su Zifeng and the others looked at each other and smiled.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Wu Yangyang and a group of people came to the conference room, and both parties signed a non-disclosure agreement tacitly.

Immediately afterwards, a picture of a chip was displayed on the TV.

Huang Renxun said straight to the point: "Mr. Lu, to tell you the truth, Nvidia has long wanted to enter the smartphone processor market. For this reason, we have secretly developed a chip called 'Tegra'. Here are the parameters."

Su Zifeng and the others all cast their scrutinizing gazes, while Lu Fei smacked his lips, the embarrassment and disgust that couldn't be hidden in his eyes.

Doesn't this make Lei Jun miserable Tegra processor?

Thinking back to the Mi 3 at the beginning, it was the first time that it was "born for fever" in the true sense because of this chip from Nvidia.

Severe fever, comparable to Snapdragon 888.

Noticing the wink from him, Su Zifeng nodded, and said bluntly that the Tegra project can continue, but the logic must be involved in the whole process from design to packaging and testing, and jointly developed.

"what??"

Nvidia executives, including Huang Renxun, looked stunned.

"Don't get me wrong."

Su Zifeng waved her hand: "It's not that we don't believe in Nvidia's achievements in GPU, but that we make GPU, not just for GPU. Our ultimate goal is to make mobile phone SoC. GPU must be compatible with logic CPU and baseband chips."

"Soc? Logic wants to develop its own Soc?!"

Huang Renxun was shocked when he heard this.

"Yes, you should also be well aware that Moore's Law predicts a doubling of CPU performance every 18 months. The annual increase in CPU performance has slowed down due to physical constraints, but adding GPUs can change the rules of the game for high-performance computing."

"But if I remember correctly, Logic's lphone4 this year, the baseband is from Qualcomm, and the processor is from Texas Instruments. Why do you suddenly want to make your own Soc?"

"The reason is actually very simple."

Su Zifeng said the excuse she had thought up.

The most important signal and performance of smartphones, but now Qualcomm is only a manufacturer that provides Snapdragon basebands, and Texas Instruments, baseband chips are simply "knowledge blind spots" for it.

Even if it is as strong as Intel, it has failed in research and development.

This is a problem. Texas Instruments cannot manufacture a chip with its own baseband, so the logic must be found in Qualcomm. Instead of forcing it to be integrated, it is better to make a Soc by yourself.

"This is the premise of cooperation between Logic and Nvidia."

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Otherwise, there is no need to talk about it."

Huang Renxun quickly drank his saliva to defuse the awkward atmosphere, "Mr. Lu, this is so sudden, can you give us some time to think about it?"

"Yes, but I declare in advance that with this foundation of cooperation, we can have more and deeper cooperation with Nvidia in the future." The corner of Lu Fei's mouth curled up, "For example, you have recently invested a huge amount of money and have been developing CUDA computing platform."

No wonder Master Lu can make logic so great!

He is indeed a person who knows the goods!
When Huang Renxun heard that he was willing to let all large companies under his name, such as Penguin, Feigou, Line, and Logic, participate in the development of the CUDA platform, he couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

"With our joining, Nvidia has established a complete ecosystem. Maybe when the AI ​​​​chip matures, and when the artificial intelligence technology breaks through, it will completely overturn the limitation of the GPU as a graphics card, and overtake the CPU in a corner!"

Lu Fei stared straight at Huang Renxun.

"Gollum, Gollum."

Huang Renxun swallowed his saliva and kept looking at his watch.

"Why, Mr. Huang, are you in a hurry?" Lu Fei joked.

"No, I just want to see if today is April Fool's Day?" Huang Renxun casually said what was in his heart, "Oh no, Sao Rui, I just can't believe it."

"Don't worry, there's more."

"and also?!"

"In order to ensure smooth and stable cooperation, I hope Nvidia can accept our strategic investment."

Lu Fei stretched out his hands, fingers spread out.

That is 5.5% of the shares, about 3300 million shares.

The acquisition at US$14 per share requires US$4.62 million, which is a bit expensive, but once successful, Logic will immediately become the fourth largest shareholder after Vanguard, BlackRock, and Fidelity.

"This, this..."

Huang Renxun was shocked by one "surprise" after another, and adjusted his glasses awkwardly, "Boss Lu and Logic's strategic investment needs to be deliberated by the board of directors as a separate proposal, and then passed to the shareholders' meeting for voting. This time is still difficult... "

"As long as Mr. Huang agrees, I believe that other directors and shareholders can be persuaded." Lu Fei whispered like a demon, "Nvidia must not miss the mobile Internet era."

When Huang Renxun thought of Nvidia's smart phone and tablet computer, he thought of CUDA with Lu Fei's full support, and the picture was so beautiful, he immediately felt thirsty.

Subconsciously picked up the cup, only to find it was empty.

"Boss Huang, think about it, think about it."

Lu Fei took the initiative to pick up the kettle and pour it for him.

………………

The cooperation negotiation between Logic and Nvidia was not unexpected. No matter how secret it was, the news leaked out like a ghost, but there was only one thing that got out——

Nvidia is suspected of introducing logical strategic investment.

After the launch of the new phone, another blockbuster was dropped in the North American technology circle. For a while, there were different opinions.

Some say that Nvidia wants to enter the mobile market with Logic, some say that Nvidia joins forces with Logic to attack AMD and Intel, and some say that Logic is going for the CUDA platform.

In short, there is no quasi-letter.

But there are two pieces of news that are absolutely true. Goldman Sachs issued an open letter welcoming Buffett and Lu Fei to take over the company as shareholders.

The other is that Three-body Fund and Berkshire Hathaway announced that they have reached an acquisition agreement with MoneyGram. The final transaction must be reported to the Overseas Investment Committee for inspection and approval.

It's Master Lu again!

It's Buffett again!
One after another, the latest issue of "Forbes" simply put Lu Fei and Buffett on the cover, one old and one young, holding a financial tsunami earth.

Buffett holds the Western Hemisphere, while Lu Fei holds the Eastern Hemisphere.

The title reads impressively: Who is in charge of ups and downs?God of things!

The magazine spread across the country, causing an uproar.

These days, Guanglianxiang's acquisition of IBM's PC department is enough to cause a sensation in the whole country, and what Mr. Lu did one after another directly shocked netizens for a whole year.

On a social platform for the workplace, enthusiastic netizens have nothing to do when they are idle, cooking wine with green plums and talking about heroes, ranking domestic entrepreneurs and famous enterprises and big factories, and instantly arousing heated discussions.

At present, famous Internet companies are divided into three echelons:
The first gear: Penguin, Logic, Huawei, Feigou;
The second gear: Ari, Xinlang, Wangyi, Baidu, Sogou...

The third gear: Meituan, Sohu, Shanda, 360...

In the discussion area below Weibo, there have been more than a thousand comments.

"Good guy, there are four FTLHs, three of which belong to Mr. Lu."

"In fact, Mr. Lu is also a shareholder of Huawei."

"Is there any mistake? Huawei and Logic are not Internet companies at all. They should be high-tech companies. They should be compared with companies like Lianxiang and Shenzhou."

"I can't agree with the above again. Internet companies are everywhere, and there are very few domestic technology companies that can truly be called technology companies. This does not include Lianxiang, and there is no technical content at all."

"Is this statement too absolute? Lianxiang also has technology, and at least he also acquired IBM's PC department."

"Lianxiang and Logic are our technological pride."

"Damn it! Can Lianxiang not force the 'Double Pride'? If you want to say 'Double Pride', it should also be Huawei and logic. Don't touch the existence of the two technologies, industry and trade."

"Logic and Huawei are always so good. They always invest money in key areas instead of distributing large amounts to executives."

"........."

Just as the two sides were arguing in the tap water, the news of Logic's wholly-owned acquisition of Transmeta, the fifth largest CPU manufacturer in the United States, was sent back to China, which immediately turned the situation on one side, and even the last voice of defending Lianxiang disappeared. ——

Boss Lu is awesome!
The logic is awesome!
Anyway, it's over!
Instead, Liu Chuanzhi was extremely depressed. He was sitting in the villa of Wanliu Academy, watching CCTV's spare no effort to report on Mr. Lu, almost blowing him into the atmosphere.

"Dad, let's stop watching his news."

Liu Qing brought the fruit plate and sighed.

The family has tried their best not to let Liu Chuanzhi get any news about Lu Fei, but it is impossible to guard against it day and night.

After all, there are too many news about Lu Fei.

Seeing his daughter's silence, Liu Chuanzhi covered his aching chest, "You are the executive director of Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific, but he became the major shareholder of Goldman Sachs, what is this?"

"Okay, Dad, stop talking."

Liu Qing patted his back lightly, and couldn't help smiling wryly.

If you let your father know that Mr. Lu is still begging him to invest in Goldman Sachs executives, he will be very angry out of ten.

I have given my father all my strength, why can't I catch up with his all-out efforts?Is the gap between the rich generation and the rich second generation so big?
"Don't watch it, don't watch it, it's boring."

Liu Chuanzhi changed the channel angrily, suddenly his eyes widened, his heart ached, and at the same time as he let out a scream, he broke out in cold sweat.

"Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Qing rummaged through the box, found the medicine and hurriedly fed it to him, followed his line of sight, and saw the broadcast on TV:

"The main shareholder of CICC, Central Huijin Investment Co., Ltd., has entered into an equity transfer agreement with Three Body Fund, holding 4.84% of the total share capital, marking that Three Body Fund has formally invested in CICC..."

"It's saved, haha, Mengniu is saved now!"

Niu Gensheng ran back to the computer, wrote a Wanyan letter on the screen, and checked it up and down several times.

In the midst of entanglement, he still pressed the mouse.

The document was immediately sent to Lu Fei's private mailbox.

　Thanks to Princess Sissy for the 1400 starting coins.
