Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

There are many car companies vying to appear in the parade. Biradi has made a new energy garbage truck. If it really wants to become a review vehicle, technical strength is not the most important. Identity is important. Hongqi Automobile has a natural advantage.

Of course, Qiancheng is not impossible. As a representative of new energy vehicles, it has also made good achievements in the field of fuel vehicles. It would be a bit exaggerated to say that Qiancheng and Lantu's fuel vehicles are the best among domestic independent brands, but they can surpass them. Definitely limited.

The relevant departments gave a more precise answer. They will definitely use it, but there is no guarantee that it will be the only special review car. Even so, the Geometry Y9 still needs to make some adjustments, such as raising the wing doors to 90 degrees, so that if it does not affect the standing position, there is no need to make major changes.

Well, the Geometry Y9 has 6 doors, which can be combined into several modes, including several modes that are very suitable for guests to watch ceremonies and show off their aura on grand occasions.

"I heard that you don't like flashy cars?" Leaders who come to Geometry Auto to meet Qu Li these days often ask this question. Geometry Y9 is really "low-key" and not "flashy" at all, let alone "flashy". It's impossible. . Qu Li still insists on this. He prefers a more stable and majestic car.

Fortunately, the relevant departments need to keep it confidential. Many details of this car have not been leaked. The Tesla Model It was said that the electronic and electrical architecture of the vehicle would be changed to prepare for autonomous driving, but the specific details were not made public and there was no pre-sale.

Many people at home and abroad speculated that the Geometry Y9 may have changed too much and made it difficult to produce, and that they were going in the wrong direction. However, Qu Li never gave a positive answer. He has not yet decided when it will be officially released. Now that something has happened, it is It's time to prepare.

After Qu Li returned to "work" at Honor, news about Geometry Auto was "leaked". Someone took a spy photo of Geometry Y9 and posted it on Instagram, which was then "quickly" deleted. Someone took a screenshot and retained the low-resolution picture. Geometry Y9 actually Is it Zhanyimen?

Screenshots were circulated on Weibo, and many netizens started discussing. Everyone knows these routines, and detailed data information will be revealed bit by bit. It will build momentum in July, start pre-sales in August, conduct a military parade in September, and then officially release the new car at the German Auto Show.

From the Tesla model When they saw the wingspan doors, many fans of Geometry cars understood that because the Geometry Y9 collided with the Tesla model X, the design was temporarily changed. However, there are still many doubts. Looking at the wingspan doors, it seems...

As they discussed, Qu Li handed over the publicity work and returned to Honor to understand the situation. Since the release of Honor's flagship phone in March, it has returned to the title of Android phone king and continues to reduce the gap between the user experience and the iPhone. Maintaining the leading edge in photography and strengthening the capabilities of Klun voice assistant...

I thought that the gap between Kirin CPU performance and Apple's A series would have a big impact, but I didn't expect that the actual situation was not as bad as they imagined. There are no coarse-grain mobile phones in China to disrupt the situation, although cost-effective mobile phone companies have also emerged, emphasizing the importance of CPUs. , but not as "feverish" as a coarse-grain mobile phone.

More importantly, the Honor Kirin chip has stepped out of its own way and transformed from a mobile phone SOC into a heterogeneous computing platform, integrating CPU+GPU+NPU+ISP+DSP (digital signal processor Hanxin is this thing).

The first Kirin chip is emergency, and the second official one will be released in the second half of this year. This is a series that not only includes mobile phone chips, but also car chips. Of course, the formal application of car-grade chips requires verification time. Qualcomm 8155 seems to be used for more than 2 years. It was released in January 2019 and will be installed in cars in early 2021.

Another good news is that Qualcomm will not release a flagship chip this year. It may just be a barely high-end Snapdragon 650 with 6 cores. It can be said that this year’s big stage can be used by Spreadtrum Kirin chips.

At this time, the news of Su Zifen, the creator of Kirin chips, leaving Honor to join AMD has already been made public. Public opinion has mixed praise and criticism for Honor, and is full of concerns about the future of Spreadtrum chips.

Qu Li did not see this. He had always had his own plan. Within three to five years, the main team of Spreadtrum Chip must be in mainland China, and the main person in charge must be of Chinese nationality.

As Su Zifen joined AMD, Fanxing Fund, Tianming Fund, and Honor Spreadtrum provided him with an investment of US$200 million to help the company transform. I will not go into the specific details. Qu Li was finally able to obtain about 10% of AMD. of shares.

This has caused a lot of discussions at home and abroad. Some people believe that this is a precursor to Honor's acquisition of AMD, which then caused opposition from all over the United States. The Chinese cannot be allowed to control such an advanced company.

"Qu Li has been stealing our wealth, technology and talents..."

"Kick Qu Li out of the United States. Glory is not an American company..."

Every time he sees this group of people causing trouble, Qu Li feels a headache. It is too difficult for a Chinese high-tech company to go abroad. Honor has to deal with similar things every year. Think of Chrysanthemum Factory, which has enjoyed this kind of treatment for nearly twenty years.

Since you can't resist, let's explain. Su Zifen was the first to speak and explained the origin of the two hundred million US dollars: "I believe AMD is a very good semiconductor company. When I was at Spreadtrum, I never discussed acquiring AMD, and I don't now. Exception. Spreadtrum’s direction is mobile phones and automotive chips..."

The chairman of AMD also said that Qu Li would not join the AMD board of directors, and he entrusted the voting rights to Ms. Su Zifen...

Qu Li reiterated his promise of non-interference: "If I must say the purpose, then my only thought is not to let Intel lose competitors. In addition, I believe in Ms. Su Zifen's ability, and this investment can bring me huge profits." income……"

In fact, the opposition mainly came from the private sector. The relevant departments did not object to Qu Li's investment, indicating that the investment was not "sensitive" enough, or that he avoided "risks"

People related to this investment have all spoken out, and there are mixed reactions from the outside world. AMD's stock price has skyrocketed, doubling in just one week. I don't know if I believe Su Zifen or that Qu Li may want to acquire AMD.

Various conspiracy theories emerged at home and abroad, but Qu Li had no time to pay attention and refute them. He still did his own thing and insisted that Spreadtrum Kirin develop towards a heterogeneous computing platform, based on the ARM instruction set and using chips with its own architecture...

This is not enough. Qu Li asked them to develop the RISC-V open source instruction set architecture at the same time. Self-developed ones are also acceptable. They also need to cultivate system development and Rust language talents. Honor’s car system at this time is based on the Linux kernel and may be abandoned in the future. Linux, an operating system with self-developed kernel developed using Rust.

Qu Li has great ambitions but lacks confidence. He always looks at the financial situation. Honor's revenue data and net profit in the first half of the year continued to grow, which is the source of his confidence growth.
