In addition to launching solid-state drives that support SATA, DeepBlue Group also launched PCI-E versions of hard drives.

In this era, the M2 interface has not yet become popular, so DeepBlue Group can only launch PC-E hard drives. The speed of PCI-E can reach 984.6MB/S per second, which is 3.0% faster than SATA50.

If you want to popularize M2, the hardware scene must launch the corresponding interface. However, DeepBlue Electronics has already communicated with major manufacturers, and they will launch a hard drive interface with an M2 interface in the future.

The reason why DeepBlue Electronics launched the solid-state drive is to promote solid-state drives to replace mechanical hard drives. What's more, the wafer factory has sufficient production capacity. If chips are not produced, many lithography machines will be left there. The best way is to promote the popularization of solid-state drives.

The news that Deep Blue Group launched a low-priced solid-state drive quickly spread on the Internet.

With the low price of 500 yuan for 599G, it immediately became the protagonist in all major computer chat groups.

"Deep Blue Group is awesome. They directly reduced the price of SSD to 1 2G. The price-performance ratio is really too high."

"Brother SSDs have a limited lifespan. They are not like mechanical hard drives which can last for 10 years. You need to be careful when buying SSDs."

"I guess the guy above didn't read the introduction of Deep Blue. Based on a write volume of 50GB per day, 150TBW can be used for 8.4 years. Deep Blue's SSD is 300TBW, and with a write volume of 50GB per day, it can be used for 16.8 years. The question is, do you have such a large write volume every day? This lifespan is enough for ordinary people to use for a lifetime."

"A computer can basically be discarded after five years of use. Even if Deep Blue's hard drive can only be used for eight years, this lifespan is enough for us to use."

"In fact, the real disadvantage of solid-state drives is that if the hard drive fails, the data cannot be recovered. Storing important data on a mechanical hard drive is the safest option. However, using a solid-state drive as the main drive is very cool. Friends who have used Deep Blue computers know how fast it is.

Whether it is running games or running systems, it is incomparable to mechanical hard drives. Friends who don’t have such a small amount of money can buy a 128GB solid-state drive, which is only 128 yuan. "

“我上个星期刚刚买了个英特尔40G固态硬盘，你们知道我是多少钱购买的吗？800块钱买的40G硬盘，特么的你现在告诉我500G只要599块。”

"I've already ordered a 128GB hard drive to upgrade my computer. I can't afford to lose money or get cheated at 199 yuan."

"128GB is only enough to install an operating system, so it's more cost-effective to buy 500GB, which can hold a lot of things."

“I just don’t know if using a coded SSD can turn it into an uncoded/funny face.”

"Hurry up and send me the seeds, otherwise I will not forgive you."

at the same time.

Western Digital, Seagate, Hitachi and other manufacturers have received news that Deep Blue will launch solid-state drives.

However, they could not find any solution for the time being. Unless a manufacturer could provide them with cheap chips, they could not produce cheap solid-state drives. Moreover, there was a price difference between solid-state drives and mechanical hard drives. In the short term, solid-state drives could not replace mechanical hard drives.

Although solid-state drives cannot replace mechanical hard drives in the short term, they are eroding a large portion of the market share.

After all, ordinary people in this era do not have a great demand for storage, and most people are still using 120G and 250G mechanical hard drives.

However, after learning the news, these manufacturers still reported the relevant information to the headquarters.

In addition to launching solid-state drives, Deep Blue also sends quotations to electronics manufacturers and sells memory chips to the outside world.

The headquarters of Sanxing Semiconductor in South Korea.

President's office.

Li Jiongcai is handling the daily work of Sanxing Semiconductor.

"Boom~boom~boom~"

Just at this moment there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Li Jiong replied.

A man in a black suit, with slicked-back hair and gold-rimmed glasses opened the door and walked in.

"President." Li Chengjun bowed and greeted after entering the door.

"What's the matter?" Li Jiongcai asked.

"Something big has happened to the president. Just now we received news from China that Deep Blue sells solid-state drives and memory chips. The price of their chips is 60% cheaper than the market price. 8GB memory chips are only 19 US dollars, and 64GB storage chips are only 11 US dollars. Memory chip futures fell by 50% in an instant. We lost more than 30 billion US dollars in the futures market." Li Chengjun said.

"What?" Li Jiongcai looked at Li Chengjun in disbelief.

2014 was a low point for the global PC market. With the rise of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, PC sales have been declining year by year, which has led to a decrease in PC manufacturers' demand for memory, which in turn has affected the sales of memory manufacturers.

Since the second half of 2013, global memory manufacturers have announced that they will reduce DRAM production capacity, including well-known manufacturers such as Sansa, SK Hynix, and Micron. The reduction in production capacity has led to a decrease in memory supply and a rise in prices.

Well-known manufacturers such as Sanxing, SK Hynix, and Micron have longed in futures to raise memory prices.

They probably never expected that Deep Blue Group would suddenly emerge and launch its own memory particles into the market. As early as last year, they had asked someone to test whether Deep Blue Group would sell their memory particles into the market.

However, Deep Blue's reply to them was that Deep Blue would not sell memory chips to the outside world for the time being. However, they did not expect that Deep Blue would sell memory chips to the outside world without any warning.

Although Deep Blue's running memory particles are not compatible with existing platforms, Deep Blue's running memory performance is stronger than theirs. Once Deep Blue launches this memory on the market, manufacturers will definitely follow up with compatible Deep Blue's memory particles. As for Deep Blue's storage particles, they are compatible with existing platforms.

Deep Blue's storage particles are not only cheaper but also have larger capacity than theirs.

This is also the reason why the memory futures market plummeted 50% in just half a minute.

"Puff~" Li Jiongcai spat out a mouthful of blood on the monitor.

Because of his misjudgment, Shanxing Semiconductor suffered a loss of at least 50 billion US dollars. He felt that Deep Blue's memory was not compatible with the platforms on the market. He judged that Deep Blue would not sell memory particles to the outside world. Deep Blue also announced that it would not sell memory particles.

However, Deep Blue was unethical and sold the memory granules without any warning. Lee Kun-hee would definitely blame him for all the losses.

The board of directors will definitely not let him go with such a huge loss. Thinking of this, Li Jiong became so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Li Jiongcai fell to the ground after spurting out blood.

Mountain Star Building.

At this moment, I am sitting at the tea table drinking tea with an old friend.

At this time, a man in black came in from outside the door. He whispered something in Lee Kun-hee's ear. After listening to the other party's words, Lee Kun-hee frowned. "Is the person dead?" Lee Kun-hee asked.

"No." The man in black replied.

"If he's not dead, throw him into the Han River to feed the fish," said Lee Kun-hee.

"Okay, President." replied the man in black.

The man in black then bowed and left the tea room.

"Jianjun, something unexpected happened in my company. I may not be able to continue drinking tea with you." Lee Kun-hee said after putting down the teacup in his hand.

"Senior, please go and do your thing first. I can leave by myself. We can make an appointment another day." Jin Jianjun said with a smile.

"Eunhyuk, please help me send Jianjun off." Lee Kun-hee said.

"Okay, President." said the man in black behind Lee Kun-hee.

at the same time.

The futures market was in a state of wailing, with 80% of people's positions liquidated and the combined losses of those who went long exceeding billion.

In a building near the New York Stock Exchange, several white people stood on the rooftop holding bottles of wine.

"This damn Deep Blue Group, I will not let them go even if I go to hell." A middle-aged white man with stubble said after taking a sip of vodka.

As he said this, the white man dropped the bottle of wine in his hand, walked to the edge of the roof and jumped down. This time, the memory futures fell and he not only lost his principal, but also owed the futures company 3 million US dollars.

If he didn't jump, the slum gangs would have caught him and beaten him up.

The young man standing by saw the middle-aged man jump down, stretched his head to look down, then retracted his head.

After all, anyone would be scared before jumping from such a high place.

"Fuck! Deep Blue Group, I'll fuck your whole family." The young man gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and jumped out.

He didn't lose much, only tens of millions of US dollars, but he couldn't afford to pay back so much money, and only jumping could relieve his worries.

In addition to the New York Stock Exchange
There were cases of people leaping from nearby buildings at the London International Futures Exchange, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Kansas City Board of Trade, Frankfurt Stock Exchange and other places.

There is no way around it, the drop in memory futures this time is just too drastic.

Normally, the futures amplitude within three to ten points is considered within the normal range of fluctuations, but it is impossible to avoid a margin call if there is a sudden drop of 50%, not to mention that many people speculate in futures with leverage.

Some investors with three or five times leverage would have to close their positions if their positions dropped by three or five points, not to mention that the decline this time was as high as 50%.

The news of the plummeting price of memory chips quickly spread in the country. After all, the drop this time was really too big.

The incident also exposed the public to the fact that some people jumped off buildings because of futures speculation.

"Brothers, don't rush to buy computers. Memory chip futures have plummeted by 50%. Memory prices will be cut in half tomorrow."

"I saw on Twitter that many people jumped off buildings due to futures trading. My god, the futures market is so scary."

"Do you think only foreign stocks will jump? I believe domestic stocks will jump as well. The spot market follows the futures market. If the futures market falls sharply, the spot market will also fall. There are many people speculating in futures in China. This time, they really lost a lot of money."

"Ahem, it's actually not as scary as you think. Our company is engaged in memory trading. We received the news before the memory price fell, so we directly converted all our orders to short orders. We made a lot of money from the memory price drop this time. As for where the news came from, I don't know."

"This time the price of memory dropped because Deep Blue Group sells memory chips to the outside world. Deep Blue's memory chips are only half of those on the market. This is also the reason why memory futures dropped by 50%. You should know that Deep Blue Group is a Chinese company. This news must have spread in China first. Domestic companies naturally received the news before foreign companies, unless Deep Blue Group did not tell domestic companies the news."

"Brother above, you know too much. This matter has nothing to do with Deep Blue Group. The decline in memory prices was clearly caused by India. India has developed memory that is more advanced than Deep Blue."

"Ah, yes, yes, the big brother above is right. This must have been done by Asanguo. It has nothing to do with the Deep Blue Group."

"I was originally planning to install the computer today. All I had to do was enter the password and pay the boss. Luckily, my brother called me and told me to install the computer a day later. Otherwise, I would have to spend an extra two hundred dollars."

"It's only two hundred dollars, there's no need to be so nervous."

"Young man, you don't know that money is hard to earn and shit is hard to eat. When you save money, you will understand it when you buy a house, get married and have children."

"In fact, the decline in memory prices does not have a big impact on friends who buy computers. Today, 8GB of DDR3 memory is 220 yuan. Even if it drops by half, it will still be at least 120 yuan, which only saves 200 yuan for the whole computer. However, those who speculate in futures will probably cry. I just checked the relevant news on Twitter. There are more than a dozen people jumping off the building near the New York Stock Exchange alone."

"It's still safer to invest in stocks. As long as you don't use leverage, you'll be stuck for at most ten or eight years."

"Brother above, do you know PetroChina? My dad bought PetroChina for 48 yuan, and he has only received 2 yuan in dividends so far. The current price of PetroChina is 5 yuan, so a dividend of 5 yuan is only 6 yuan. My old man still lost 8 yuan per share. It will take at least 1 years to get his money back."

"My condolences to the big brother upstairs."

At this time, Han Chen and Changsun Chuanfu were sitting at the tea table drinking tea. Just 1 second ago, Changsun Chuanfu received a text message.

"Brother Chen, this time we made 270 billion US dollars by shorting the memory futures market. If we had not notified the domestic trading companies, we would have made at least 500 billion US dollars this time." Changsun Chuanfu said after putting down his phone.

"Chuanfu, if we don't notify the domestic trading company this time, the two of us may not live until the end of this month. By then, we don't know how many people will want to kill us." Han Chen said after pouring another cup of tea for his eldest grandson Chuanfu.

As the saying goes, even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered. If they cheat the people in their own country this time, these people in their country will never let them go.

It is unlikely that if they cheat foreigners, foreigners will come to China to retaliate against them.

But if they cheat people in the country, there might be people watching them every day, and they might be hit by a dump truck as soon as they go out.

Some of the more ruthless ones might even take a bomb and die together with them.

As the saying goes, Chinese people don’t cheat other Chinese people.

Han Chen told them the story, not only because he didn't want to cheat his own people, but also because he could gain a good reputation and favors from these people. (End of this chapter)
