Back To 1995

  Chapter 769 Painting Pie

  Song Yang didn't need the founder's name. Anderson and Anduran still needed it. Hearing that his name appeared on the list of founders, Anderson was relieved.

   "Manager Anduran, President of Siebel Electric Vehicles, Mr. Anderson as Chief Software Engineer..."

  Marcus announced several appointments, basically not unexpected, basically Anduran is responsible for the hardware development of electric vehicles, and Mark Anderson is responsible for electric vehicle systems, autonomous driving and other software development related to electric vehicles.

   "Sibell Electric Vehicle will exist as a brand under the Sibel Automobile Club. Using Sibel Automobile's brand, technology and patents, Sibel Automobile Club will hold 15% of the shares of the electric car company!

The North American Global Investment Foundation will be the largest shareholder of Siebel Electric Vehicles, holding 55% of the shares. President Anderson will own 20% of the shares of Siebel Electric Vehicles, and the rest of the equity will belong to PA Semiconductor and Siebell Automobiles. some executives. "

   North America Global Investment Fund, which represents Song Yang, which is Siebel Electric Vehicle, Song Yang can get 55% of the equity, Anderson can get 20%.

It seems that Anderson has taken a lot of money, but in the next few years, Siebel Electric Vehicles will definitely continue to accept venture capital from Wall Street institutions. Song Yang will not really invest money in it. When it goes public, Anderson's equity will be 10% is a lot.

   This is still, on the premise that Song Yang does not cheat him, otherwise there are means to dilute the equity held by Anderson!

  Like the Internet, America now does not have a set of federal laws that stipulate the standards for electric vehicles, and license plates have not been issued. Siebel electric vehicles can only borrow the license plates of traditional cars.

Siebel electric vehicles can only be affiliated with Siebel Automobile Club. Like Pagani, it has become one of the brands of Siebel Automobile Club. This makes Siebel Automobile Club also own three major brands, Siebel Sports Car, Siebel The three major brands of electric vehicles and Pagani, regardless of their value, still sound very bluffing!

After    became "my own person", the atmosphere in the conference room was naturally better. Song Yang first looked at Hobuluo, the person in charge of the Saipan system.

Now Hoblo has the style of a big man in Silicon Valley. The users of the Saipan system officially exceeded 150 million this month, that is, the global shipment of mobile phones equipped with the Saipan system has exceeded 150 million. 150 million, the Saipan system has officially become the orthodox in the mobile phone industry.

  Compared to making money, the Saipan system is not as good as Microsoft, but then again, looking at the entire software industry, computers plus mobile phones, which software company can make more money than Microsoft.

But in addition to Microsoft, the Saipan system is already one of the most used operating systems in the world. It also owns products such as Firefox browser, a product with "100 million" users, Saipan Music Store, Saipan Software Store and other products. , relying on advertising, digital music, etc., the Saipan system is also considered to be a gold medal last day.

   "The Saipan system will provide a group of software engineers for the system department of Siebel Electric Vehicles to help Siebel Electric Vehicles develop a driving system!"

   Now the Siebel electric car is just an empty shelf without even an office space. Anderson has a group of engineers from the original Netscape, but there are too few personnel to support a top-level development department.

The most direct way is to transfer a group of engineers from the Saipan system and other departments to join Anderson's driving system department. Of course, in addition to enabling Anderson to quickly build a development department, there is another layer of meaning. , someone from the Saipan system can ensure Song Yang's influence on this department!

  Song Yang didn't doubt that Anderson would play any tricks, but he still had to take precautions. Otherwise, one day, when he woke up, Anderson suddenly ran away with the entire development department. At that time, he was only dumbfounded.

   The probability of such a thing happening is very small, but it has to be guarded against. The companies in Silicon Valley are really ruthless, and they can do it by any means.

  Anderson has no objection to this point. Netscape's brand was very bright back then. As long as the Netscape brand was played, those top technology giants would get together and enter Netscape.

But now, it’s already the yellow flower of yesterday, and Netscape itself is yellow, not to mention the use of Netscape’s brand to recruit technical geniuses. Anderson prepared his own team. Development engineer, is the fastest way.

   As for whether Song Yang had mixed sand in it, Anderson couldn't care about that. Everything would have to wait until the first Siebel electric car went on sale.

   "The two most important parts of an electric car are the driving system and the battery, and the car chip is the most important part of the driving system. I hope that PA Semiconductor can develop the top-level car chip for Siebel electric cars!"

  Song Yang gave PA Semiconductor a 5% stake in Siebel Electric Vehicles, and pulled PA Semiconductor into the chariot for this.

   Dobble nodded, without any hesitation, Song Yang smashed so many beautiful knives on PA semiconductors, not for listening to Dobble complain.

Before and after, within a few years, PA Semiconductor has acquired dozens of large and small acquisitions, including ARM, Samsung's chips, DEC semiconductor departments, etc., all of which have been acquired by PA Semiconductor, and Song Yang smashed it on it. The US knife is almost a lot more than that of Alcatel mobile phones. Now it is time for PA Semiconductor to perform.

   "PA Semiconductor will establish an automotive chip department to provide qualified chips for Siebel electric vehicles!"

Dobble said that if there are too many lice, there is no fear of biting. Now PA Semiconductor has a lot of business, supplying mobile phone chips for Alcatel mobile phones, computer chips for Apple, TV chips for Panda TV, and game console chips for Sega. , supplying set-top box chips for Fortinet TV boxes, and now adding a car chip, PA semiconductors are already a bit numb.

Other chip manufacturers, including Intel, Texas Instruments, AMD and other manufacturers, are trying their best to find partners. If they want to sell more chips, PA Semiconductor does not need to look for them at all. What they need to do is to double their production capacity. Double it again and repeat.

  Because it is visible to the naked eye, the sales of Alcatel mobile phones, Panda TVs, Sega consoles, etc. will be higher and higher in the future. It is difficult for PA Semiconductors to meet the needs of their own people, not to mention finding new partners.

Although it was promised, Dobble also "said the ugly words in front", "Automotive chips are different from chips in other industries, and research and development may take longer. In addition, the most important thing to pursue is not how advanced the performance is, but the safety. and reliable…”

   When he said this, Dobble looked at Song Yang, Anderson, Anduran and the others, full of desire to survive.

Cars are different from mobile phones, computers, game consoles, etc. If the car is stuck, it is a big deal to restart. The car cannot be restarted on the road, and as long as there is an accident caused by the car chip, the brand of the car chip will basically be yellow. , because of a problem with the chip of the mobile phone, it's a big deal to buy a new one. You can't buy a new life if there is a problem with the car chip, right? !

A car today, even a high-end car, uses no more than 30 chips. Among them, in the automotive chip industry, the most popular one is Texas Instruments. In this regard, Intel and NVIDIA are still far away. far less.

In the chip industry, Texas Instruments has always dared to be the first in the industry. In addition to mobile phone chips, analog chips, automotive chips, satellite chips, etc. have played. No other peers have touched these things, and Texas Instruments has smashed them all. Big money in.

According to Siebel's estimates, a large number of chips will be used on the car to improve the "technical content" of the car. Now, a traditional car uses up to 30 chips, but with Siebel's electric car, the basic starting point is There are more than 100 of them, and it is impossible for Dobble to be careless. This is not a problem of taking the blame, but it can really kill you!

  Song Yang nodded, giving PA Semiconductor enough time to develop a variety of chips including automotive chips, MCU control chips, and sensors.

   "Sibell Electric Vehicle's first car, in terms of performance, does not require much advanced, 100 km acceleration, etc., but safety and reliability must be guaranteed!" Song Yang said to the crowd.
