Big Country Intelligent Manufacturing

"Xu Dong...Xu Dong!" At that moment, Yang Yurong's call came, waking up Xu Zhenming.

Xu Zhenming put down the wet towel in his hands and twisted back his wet head. "You quickly go and get ready, make a PowerPoint document of the news of VIA's acquisition of Cyril, I need it for the meeting this afternoon!" He commanded thoughtfully. Since the Mickey had already made his move, the Yiming Group Company couldn't just foolishly wait to be beaten.

At around half past one in the afternoon, on the eighth floor of Yiming Group's office building, in the second public meeting room, the leaders of the electronics lab had all arrived, gathered together for the first special meeting after Xu Zhenming's return.

Presiding over this meeting was Director Zhou Jiawei, Zhang Guoli, Zhang Neodymium Jin, Hu Mingzhen, He Changlin, Guo Liansheng and other big names in semiconductor chip professions came to the meeting. Even Director Manning Gu, who was in charge of materials development, was invited by Xu Zhenming to join today's special meeting.

"Colleagues, Director Xu, we have received bad news one after the other today, the semiconductor industry in the rice country has undergone big changes, the external environment is very unfavorable for us. Chairman Xu has called you all here for a meeting today to discuss a perfect solution."

After the meeting room started, Zhou Jiawei briefly introduced the actions of VIA Corporation and Intel Corporation in the meeting, allowing all the technical cadres who attended the meeting to come together to analyze the main objective of their opponents.

"Er? Yonkers already have a 300MMX CPU? It's a bit tricky!"

"VIA's love affair with Cyril has been all over the city, and now that's a good outcome. We have another CPU in China."

"No! Hu, I disagree with you.VIA owns the intellectual property of the Cyril chip, which will impact the low-end product market of our Vermillion CPUs."

"What are you afraid of, Cyril's 686 chip can still threaten us?"

After Zhou Jiawei's words fell, the conference room buzzed with talk, and the technical cadres who had come to the meeting all spoke with very different views.

Some were optimistic, looking down on VIA at all, even Intel; some were pessimistic, believing that the Vermillion Bird CPU was already two generations behind the Pentium 300MMX CPU, and that the development of the Vermillion Bird III-Reliance 260MMX CPU should be accelerated immediately, preferably by releasing the Rely 260MMX CPU next month!

There are still people who look down on VIA and think that Cyril CPUs will only be a flash in the pan, but Intel is a bit scary and the speed of development seems to be on the ropes and not normal at all!

"Xu Dong, we shouldn't have sold our immersion lithography process technology and FinFET process quota technology to Intel in the first place. Without these two Foundry process technologies, Intel wouldn't have been able to catch up with us!"

After a discussion, everyone came to this conclusion.

In their opinion, as long as the Yiming Group of Companies learns from the Mickey Mouse approach and blocks the latest Foundry process technology, they will be able to rest easy.

"Cough, cough ......" sweeping a glance at the technical bigwigs with different attitudes, Xu Zhenming dryly coughed a few times to remind everyone to quiet down.

"Gentlemen, first of all, I disagree that blocking technology would allow us to keep room for technological advancement. We can't afford to burn without these two technologies in exchange for a huge amount of American knives." Xu Zhenming believed that the team of Yiming Group Company could not be stagnant, or they would slack off and not have the courage to overcome the technical difficulties.

Besides, the Mickey, the islanders, the Goliaths and the bay's corporate world, in order to obtain the process technology of the immersion process and FinFET, have already given heads to the Yiming Group Company, and their own research and development funds will be greatly compressed a lot.

This ploy should be considered as a ploy to kill two birds with one stone, hitting the enemy and growing themselves! As for the new moves by VIA Corp. and Intel, they are actually one of the signs that their rivals are overwhelmed.

"It is because they are short of money that they are thinking of attracting capital by this means and cutting the leeks of capital only!" By stirring up the storm in the Hong Kong stock market, Xu Zhenming has developed a deep understanding of capital and enterprise, enterprise and technological innovation.

In his view, enterprises through research and development of new technologies, the release of new products to tell the story, to attract capital investment, cutting the market leek, but also in cutting the leek of capital.

These truths are simple enough to be understood between capital and companies, but no one will say them in public. The serial technique of cutting leeks is not to be publicized, and publicity will change the taste. If it wasn't for the internal meeting of the Yiming Group of Companies, Xu Zhenming wouldn't have said out such unwritten rules.

"Alright, let's not discuss who's right and who's wrong. We should discuss the current situation we're facing!"

In Xu Zhenming's opinion, VIA will definitely make a big move after acquiring the Cyril CPU system technology, to gang up on the Bay microelectronics industry and divide the ecosystem of the Vermilion Bird series CPU system architecture.

"With VIA having a fist product, will SIS defect, will ALI change its mind? That's what we're talking about today!"

Xu Zhenming brought up a point that was surprising to everyone.

It seemed to everyone that SIS and ALI had signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Yiming Group and were also preparing to build a brand new chip Foundry base in the Bay.

"How did they defect? How does it change the CPU ecosystem?" Everyone was thinking like this, and their puzzled eyes looked at Xu Zhenming.

Xu Zhenming was a reborn person, and knew very well about the decline of the three major motherboard manufacturers in the Bay.

In another time and place, after VIA gained Cyril, SIS and ALI suddenly shifted sides and went over to Intel, joining Intel and AMD in crushing VIA.

Within a few years, VIA, SIS and ALI, three of the world's top motherboard companies, all began to decline, and Intel's motherboard chipsets began to emerge. Gone were the three motherboard companies ruling the roost in the Bay, and the Cyril CPUs went right out the window!

The sobering situation that has arisen is actually due to the lack of unity of the three main board companies in the Bay, which have been divided and defeated by their rivals.

This is the power of capital!

Nowadays, the inertia of history had not changed because of Xu Zhenming's appearance.

That was the main purpose of the special meeting Xu Zhenming held today, either to get inspiration from the team personnel's heads or to give the team personnel a wake-up call.

"Xu Dong, do you think that SIS Corporation and ALI Corporation are unreliable and we should make a plan to deal with it?"

"In my opinion, we should support SIS and ALI companies so that they can also develop CPUs and go to the fire with VIA companies. This way, their three companies will be depleted and will exit the market for motherboard chipsets and CPU chips early. Wallflowers are the most hated and should be out of the competition early!"

"I agree with Director Zhou. the path of CPU development also requires faith and loyalty!"

After listening to Xu Zhenming's hypothetical analysis and reasoning process, the technical cadres in the conference room have made this suggestion that Yiming Group should sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and first use the three main board enterprises of the bay as cannon fodder.

But Xu Zhenming didn't see it that way.

"How about we immediately switch our viewpoints and start supporting VIA Corporation?" He believed that Yiming Group of Companies should change its business philosophy and divide the camp of x86 architecture CPUs by supporting VIA companies.

This is also a poisonous tactic that Xu Zhenming came up with on the spur of the moment at noon today, ready to be evaluated by the technical backbone.
