industrial maniac

All along, Xu Fei has never forgotten his original intention.

Always make dealing with disasters a top priority in life.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to invest 1.3 million US dollars to reproduce the "day after tomorrow" in the expansion film into the real world, and shoot it into a movie to warn the world.

Although Lou Xiaohu didn't believe it, Xu Fei was relieved that someone believed it.

For example, the top rich people who travel around the world in Kirov.

These wealthy people have traveled across the Antarctic and the North Pole, not only seeing a series of adverse effects caused by the hole in the ozone layer, but also listening to the cross talk actors specially invited by their own family to describe various disasters brought about by warming weather.

What is the global freeze, what are the torrential floods, what are the hailstones the size of goose eggs, what are the incurable new viruses...

At the beginning, the rich people sneered, just like Lou Xiaohu's mentality: what kind of international joke.

However, after investigation, it was found that earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanoes have occurred frequently in the past two years, especially the spread of Ebola, and camel flu was also exposed in the Iraq Krypton campaign.

The rich are not short of money, they just want to live a good life, seeing that their home planet is not suitable for living, and they cannot fly out of the solar system, so they can only form a group to urge countries to sign the 'Climate Change Act'.

For all walks of life, reduce carbon emissions, reduce chlorine emissions, reduce harmful gas emissions, and even accelerate the deindustrialization process of the American continent.

Especially JP Morgan, who has already begun to secretly form private armaments.

And the film used to warn the world - the day after tomorrow, has been sought after by people from all walks of life.

Released for 25 days, it almost broke all film and television records, became the highest-grossing work in the world's film history, and also won the annual championship. Compared with No.2 Harry Potter, its sales were five times higher, reaching US$11.3 billion.

Of course, you need to be hardworking yourself, and for the box office, I have made a lot of efforts.

Not only did the filming take place in Berlin, New York, the North Pole, the South Pole, Washington D.C., Boston, Houston, Jamaica, Petroleum, the Emirates, the Balkans and other cities, but also handed over the crew to the famous German science fiction director 'Roland Emmerich' Directed, and invited many international first-line stars to participate.

Moreover, since there is no 'Director Xu' in the expansion film, and there is no base, in order to repair the loopholes between the expansion film and the reality, the company dispatched three Kirovs and handed them over to the world's top special effects company - Industrial Light & Magic for post-production.

Plus B-2, army, aircraft, fleet, airport...

The frozen scene completely surpassed the expansion pack and was directly listed as epic.

The most important thing is the filming rate.

In Massachusetts, where Boston is located, all movie theaters only show the day after tomorrow, and you can't watch anything else if you want to.

It's pretty much the same in Texas.

Movie theaters in other states, under the dual effects of capital and top rich people, almost gave the 'day after tomorrow' maximum concessions.

Needless to say, Germany, even if it opposes Forman's eight states in southern Germany, it dare not go against the general trend.

Faguo is now following Germany, letting everything go all the way. Naturally, no one objects to the screening of a movie.

The two leaders of the European League are like this, and so are North America, and other countries must follow suit.

Except for the half-push and half-acceptance of Wajima in the Asia-Pacific region, the rest are not a problem.

The Balkans are even less of an issue.

The West Asian Alliance needs armaments, which is not a problem.

Bingxiong has a contract for self-production of crude oil, and it will not refuse it either.

The world's major film and television markets are basically like this.

Therefore, no one understands 'box office' better than Director Xu.

But does the great director Xu care about the box office?
surely not.

What he cares about is the warning effect.

Let the world act to respond to disasters in advance.

Unfortunately, even if someone believes it, there are very few countries that actually take action.

"Hopefully it's just a temporary climate anomaly."

"Otherwise, in such a short period of time, even with the assistance of the base, we will not be able to save 12 billion."

Xu Fei sighed melancholy, and walked towards the crowd looking up at the sky.

……

The foundation stone laying ceremony of the West Factory was held with great ceremonies.

In addition to local leaders, the five major investors of TEP University, many technology companies controlled by TEP, and Leizer companies that have begun to take shape with the help of industrial innovation, the participants included.

There are also many semiconductor manufacturers at home and abroad who came to learn about the business of the West Factory, and many high-tech material manufacturers who are interested in the large-scale particle collider project.

And dozens of famous physicists from overseas who have made achievements in the field of physics.

The arrival of physicists is mainly because there is no large particle collider in North America, and the situation in Europe is confusing. If one day the European Nuclear Research Center is destroyed due to war, the only equipment in the world that can discover the God particle is here.

Therefore, coming here this time is considered as submitting the application for admission in person.

Under the guidance and introduction of the second sister, Xu Fei shook hands and chatted with people from all walks of life present.

Since it was still early, after saying hello, IBM took the lead in chatting.

IBM is part of Morgan Stanley and, like General Electric, is an industry of JP Morgan.

General Electric invested in a large-scale particle collider, and IBM will naturally not invest again. This time, it is mainly for OEM.

Including optical drive, radiator, ATX standard large board, MATX small board, Xu's sound effect metal player...

And signed a procurement contract for the Voodoo series with 3dfx, which has settled in the West Factory.

In today's PC market, a hundred schools of thought contend, Pingguo in North America, HP in North America, ASUS in Taiwan, Acer (qi) in Taiwan, and LG in Nanbangzi are rising one after another, and IBM is already lonely, otherwise it will not decide to sell the PC business to the header.

And the other party looking for its own OEM is also to enhance market competitiveness with the help of low manufacturing costs.

It's a pity that although they are all owned by JP Morgan, the other party obviously didn't realize how confident Director Xu, who made Welch bow his head, had the confidence to propose a series of restrictions.

For example, if you manufacture IBM products, you cannot manufacture other brands.

Xu Fei took a serious look at the other party's face, then turned to discuss with the representative of the HP manufacturer.

Then Asus, Acer, LG...

The more manufacturers there are, the more business types there will be.

As small as a headphone jack, a memory hard drive, and a power adapter.

As large as the display panel, body shell, keyboard and mouse wire.

Xu Fei chatted for a while, and let the military division take down all of them.

If the west factory is too busy, it will be subcontracted to the Lei Ze series of enterprises in the north.

This is called two packs.

Just like Moutai wine, there is the original Moutai factory and the Moutai town.

Soon, the chairman of KS Group, who came specially from the prison, came forward to shake hands enthusiastically.

"Director Xu, we finally meet."

"I always think that instead of leasing Kirov, it is better to purchase three ships."

"You are joking."

Many things are not secrets in the upper class of society.

The chairman of KS Group got straight to the point: "The head of the North American station in South Bangzi was transferred as early as the year before last. Although I lived in a luxurious villa in prison, my industry was gradually eroded by Samsung. In other words, they did not let me Come out to give Samsung time."

"Is that so? But the situation on your side is special and complicated, and I don't seem to be able to help you much."

"Director Xu, Samsung snatched KS Group's communication business and established Samsung Electronics, which is dedicated to the research and development and manufacture of communication equipment. In order to strengthen the screen technology, they also invested in OLED and IPS hardware in the LED field. screen LCD.

Director Xu, your company's XLED has just started. If no one restricts Samsung in Nanbangzi, they will definitely become your biggest competitor in the display panel field in the future. "

"What are you going to do?"

"KS Group introduced XLED, and with the help of your OEM capabilities, first launched KS feature phones, and then launched KS smartphones. In addition to the OEM fee, we will also give 30% of the profit, but we hope that it can be sold on the supply and marketing system."

"can."

Xu Fei thought for a while, and agreed on the spot.

Now the country is full of foreign goods, not bad for this one.

If the other party makes money, the family will follow suit.

If the other party does not make money, they can get the OEM fee.

If the other party is disobedient, the supply and marketing system will be removed from the shelves directly.

Moreover, Samsung's technology is really strong, especially the newly launched OLED, which is almost the same as XLED, and the mature IPS hard-screen LCD has also been recognized by Pingguo.

Now Pingguo is the purchaser of its own screen panels, but the future may be uncertain.

Thinking of this, Xu Fei signaled the chairman of KS Group to come closer, "Have you considered letting the chairman of Samsung go in to play mahjong with you?"

"Ok?"

"I have a friend named James. You should know that the other party is not only the chairman of TEP, but also the chairman of United Defense. Now United Defense is doing business with overseas bases in North America. Let Camp Humphreys go out and Samsung Chairman It’s basically not a problem to bring it into the prison where you are.”

The chairman of KS Group was blessed to the heart, and said seriously: "Director Xu, Mahjong needs four people. I think the chairman of Hyundai, Lotte and LG should also come in."

The chairman of LG, who was standing in the distance, seemed to hear something, his face froze, and he turned his head slowly.

Xu Fei coughed, ignored the chairman of KS Group who was not aware of this scene and continued to come up with bad ideas, and walked towards the physicists.

My family does have some influence in Nanbangzi, but how could it be possible to send so many chaebols in.

However, think about the chairman of KS Group sending in four general managers within 10 years...

This matter is also uncertain.

……

11:40am.

At the scene of the groundbreaking ceremony, hundreds of hot air balloons with banners were raised.

Another five Kirov airships are hoisted side by side for a gigantic aerial view.

20 minute later.

Three thousand female workers in cheongsams waved flowers, forming a sea of ​​flowers.

The two rows of giant cannons lined up on the side of the provincial road were also stuck at 12 o'clock, firing in unison in turn.

Xu Fei stood in such a background, faced the scene, and read out his speech in front of the cameras of hundreds of reporters.

"The Daze Industrial Complex is the first superfactory of a 'combined' nature on the mother planet."

"Our philosophy is not to waste any consumables, not to leave a factory empty, and not to let any employee idle, and to use scientific management methods and strong scientific research capabilities to continuously enhance the business capabilities of the consortium."

"According to the survey results of multiple statistical agencies on the parent planet, the resource utilization rate of the Daze Industrial Complex is as high as 95%, which is twice that of similar external enterprises. The energy utilization rate exceeds 2%, which is three times that of similar external enterprises."

"Thanks to this, we have achieved good results that have attracted worldwide attention in the past year."

"The three countries of machinery have a daily output of 200 million sets, and a daily output of 5000 vehicles of various brands, electrical equipment, household appliances, PLC controllers, display panels, etc. The speed of supply also satisfies the purchasers."

"The most important thing is that we control the cost to the lowest in the industry!"

"After discussions with investors: Iron Sheet Company, TEP Group, Hongqi Automobile, Daze Group, Leifei Technology, and many partners, we have decided to transfer the microelectronics and semiconductor businesses of the Daze Industrial Complex to the west of the expressway. side, named 'West Factory'."

"I, Xu Fei, hereby declare."

"Whether it's the east factory or the west factory, our processing and manufacturing are definitely not aimed at monopoly."

"We sincerely hope and invite more manufacturers to join us to jointly promote the industrial development and technological development of the parent star!"

"At the same time, the West Factory solemnly welcomes General Electric, Volkswagen, General Motors Electronics, Great Wall Group, Hongqi Computer (Qixi), Lei Ze Technology, FAW-Volkswagen, Modu GM, Guangqu Automobile, Dongshan Heavy Truck, Gree, Haier , Duck...became the first batch of all-round partners of West Factory."

"In addition, we welcome KS Group, HP, Dell, ASUS, LG... to become the first batch of foundry business partners of the West Factory."

clap la la...

There was thunderous applause at the scene, and the doves of peace released were like white clouds.

With the accumulation of many resources, West Factory has reached the peak of the foundry enterprise when it comes out.

But this is not the pinnacle of Xichang, but the beginning.

Because lithography machines, etching machines, new materials, robots, etc. have not yet appeared.

……

After the groundbreaking ceremony.

Xu Fei hosted a banquet for everyone at the Daze Hotel.

I didn't return to the workshop office until 5 pm.

If a super foundry wants to survive, it must not be completely dependent on large manufacturers.

It is also necessary to rely on countless small factories to stimulate large factories to quickly update products in order to generate the next OEM order.

Like Pingguo, which launched iPhone1 this year, it plans to launch iPhone10 in October next year, and iPhone2G or iPhone10GS in October of the following year.

But in May of this year, Nokia, Motorola, Blackberry, and Sony Ericsson launched better models.Wait until August this year, they launched a better model.

Other small factories have also followed suit.

According to this speed, the iPhone 10 that Pingguo plans to launch in October next year must be brought forward to August this year to ensure that the performance and functions will not lag behind.

Therefore, Pingguo advanced the OEM order by half a year.

In the past, there was only one iPhone order per year, but now, there are two orders per year in advance.

Of course, this is just a metaphor, which also involves 'order quantity', 'process technology', 'processing and manufacturing equipment update' and so on.

However, the increase in business volume means an increase in foundry fees.

Therefore, it is necessary for any small factory to exist.

Therefore, Xu Fei is much more lenient to the domestic manufacturers who come to him.

Directly arrange the operation center and sign a cooperation agreement with the other party.

In addition, in the name of the first factory director of a central enterprise, a large subsidy ranging from 5 to 10 billion red notes will be given to each technology company. This is called a policy and support plan.

In official terms: the environment has improved.

The first batch of manufacturers include: Bird, Amoi, and Panda.

In turn, a large number of new brands were born, including Tianyu, Jinli, Tianshida, and Jinpeng.

It's just that chips hinder development, most of them are functional machines, there is no so-called 'intelligent system', and there is no fully localized computer.

Moreover, if this continues, referring to the rising Pingguo, Sony Ericsson, Samsung Electronics, KS Electronics, etc., as well as Qualcomm, which is about to monopolize the 3G era and RF chips, it is estimated that its own brand will be eliminated collectively in about five years.

After Xu Fei flipped through the copywriting, he lay down in the boss's chair with a little melancholy, clasped his hands behind his head, and quietly thought about the countermeasures.

Technology is something that is honed over time.

No matter how much you open up your home, you won't be able to catch up with the West in a short time.

Just like a PLC.

Obviously very simple, but I just don't have it.

If it is not provided by General Electric, who knows when the industrial innovation will be completed.

And the processor.

Although the company intends to use materials and manufacturing techniques to win, after all, it must have its own set to support domestic production.

Just like opening a restaurant, we use the best for everything, but there is no chef.

Do you serve takeout to your guests?
Xu Fei thought for a long time before contacting Wan Tao of TEP Computer Service Company.

Soon, the other party recommended the infrastructure of several processors.

X86, arm, PowerPC, Alpha, APARC.

Xu Fei didn't understand, so he asked the other party to recommend it.

Wan Tao explained:
"X86 is Intel's 16-bit microprocessor, which uses the 8086 central processing unit instruction set and is backward compatible. The advantage is that the hardware decoding speed is fast, and the disadvantage is that it will get stuck when encountering complex instructions."

"ARM is the first RISC microprocessor designed by Acom. It is equipped with a 16-bit instruction set. It is a 32-bit design, but it saves 32% compared to the equivalent 35-bit code."

"The more the code is saved, the less memory it takes to run, the faster it runs, the lower the power consumption, and it has more advantages than similar products."

"But if ARM wants to approach X86 in performance, it will consume more power."

"Power consumption means that electronic components age faster and the life of electronic products is reduced, which is why we need to have high-end chips as soon as possible."

"Other architectures, compared with the two, have their own advantages and disadvantages. I suggest ARM."

"However, although in the world, ARM is a general-purpose technology, and it is free of patent fees in the field of terminal equipment, but when Dongfang uses this thing, it may not be free for Yingge Lan."

Xu Fei nodded upon hearing this.

Free patents are said to be free, and sometimes they can be changed to fees.

For example, ARM is owned by Yingge, and it is free now. When the other party sees the large-scale use in the East, Yingge transfers ARM to Switzerland, and Switzerland announces the fee.

This kind of nonsense gameplay abounds in the business field.

The problem is, no matter if United Defense goes to England to acquire ARM or Ironhide acquires them, both companies are foreign companies, and ARM is still not its own.

But when Hongqi and Daze go to buy it, Yingge will probably not sell it if he dies.

"It's a pity that the chips that come with the products of the base are all analog circuits, which can be used, but cannot be studied thoroughly."

(Actually, it is a cloud chip, centered on the base vehicle database. Within a range of 50 kilometers, any device can log in to the cloud, download personal data at any time, and borrow the computing power of the base vehicle at any time. If the range is expanded, radar assistance is needed, but this era has no People are aware of cloud chips, even though TEP Computer Service Company has created a 'cloud server', they have not considered chips.)
After Xu Fei chatted with Wan Tao, complaining about his own base, suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind.

He hasn't checked the expansion pack for half a year, maybe it will unlock the scene of chip research and development.

Go in and experience it a few times by yourself, and carry out the design plan little by little. Don't you have a future architecture plan?
Take the path of others' future, so that others have no way to go in the future?
Xu Fei's eyes lit up, and he called out the translucent page to view the expansion packs unlocked in the past six months.

then.

"Where do so many oversized engines come from on the surface of the parent planet?"

"Planetary engine? Home planet to wander?"

Looking at the scene in the ice and snow, and the sign of Jishui City Police Station next door, Xu Fei felt his scalp go numb.

"Has it deteriorated?"

"Is it impossible to stay in the solar system?"
