“We can gradually accumulate technology and talents through cooperation!”

Zhang Tiantian said, “For example, I noticed that the domestic Loongson is licensed for the MIPS architecture.

Based on this technology, polish your own chip architecture!

However, Loongson has no market for the time being, and it mainly focuses on research and development!If our cloud computing develops to the point of purchasing a large number of chips, we can also cooperate with domestic chip design teams such as Loongson!

Place an order and let them share their intellectual property rights with us!

Also, Great Wall can produce hard drives. Although its market share is not high, it can also OEM for overseas hard drive manufacturers, which shows that it has certain production capabilities.

SMIC, which manufactures DRAM and flash memory, has also accumulated some technologies, which can actually be cooperated with.

Quietly, you don’t understand!

After the technologies I make mature, the server field and ecology will be dominated by me!

Because the technical base is developed by me, I can make the system compatible with the hardware, and the hardware used can be based on me.

Besides, after cloud computing virtualizes hardware, it has broken down the hardware compatibility barriers.

At that time, it will not only be as simple as saving money by DIYing server hardware ourselves, but also allowing the industry chain to develop technology according to our wishes.

It can be said that we can even give a large number of orders to some domestically produced hardware that did not originally have orders, and gradually support them to follow our ecological development! "

Later, Loongson has continued to develop. It is not large in scale, but it can be regarded as one of the CPU architectures with completely independent domestic technology lines.

There are manufacturers that license technologies for other architectures such as X86 and ARM in China, but they still rely on licensing and are essentially controlled by others.

The good thing about Loongson is that the parent company of the MIPS architecture later collapsed and no longer developed new instruction sets by itself. Therefore, Loongson usurped the throne and took the lead in the technology development route of the architecture.

Great Wall Computer Company actually had a lot of ambitions to produce hardware independently. In 1999, it produced the first mechanical hard drive with independent property rights in China.

Later, in 2001, Great Wall introduced a joint venture with IBM to register the Yituo hard drive brand, and Great Wall was mainly responsible for foundry manufacturing.

However, the glass hard drive technology authorized by IBM later had technical flaws. It was easy to damage the magnetic heads and bad sectors, and its lifespan was unreliable.In the end, the Great Wall and Yituo mechanical hard drives became the tears of the times.

As for SMIC, it has successively obtained DRAM technology licenses from Elpida and Qimonda, and has OEMed memory for these two companies.Then, these two major customers were eliminated by the market after the 08 financial crisis.Because the technology authorization obtained by SMIC can only be OEM for these two customers, it cannot use itself to OEM for other customers.

Therefore, SMIC later divested all DRAM-related production lines and technologies. The main body of these assets sold by SMIC was Wuhan New Core, which was originally an OEM DRAM, but was later abandoned by SMIC.Wuhan Xinxin regained orders from OEM flash memory, and gradually developed its own flash memory technology. Later, Wuhan Xinxin had a more famous name - Yangtze River Memory!

As if it appeared out of thin air, it started to rise to the top!

But that's not the case. This company was established very early, but it was not called Yangtze Memory before.

Later, another Changxin Storage Company, after Qimonda went bankrupt, went around and bought a series of Qimonda's DRAM patents, thus gaining a ticket to enter the DRAM industry.

Simply put, the reason why SMIC gave up DRAM is that its DRAM authorization is incomplete. Only customers can use these patents to OEM for specific customers.

You cannot use these patents. In essence, many of them are not your own. They are only restricted patents authorized by others for OEM purposes.

But in fact, SMIC has accumulated a large number of DRAM production and R&D talents, as well as flash memory talents, in the country during the cooperation process.

In a sense, before SMIC, the scale of technical talent in the domestic semiconductor industry chain was negligible.

It is not an exaggeration to say that SMIC started the 21st century by single-handedly replenishing the country’s curriculum and teaching hundreds of thousands of practitioners, gaining knowledge and experience in all aspects of the industrial chain.

Perhaps many people later stopped working at SMIC, but most of them stayed in China and contributed their knowledge and skills to other companies in the chip industry chain.

"Yeah! Tiantian is amazing!" Chen Jingjing said, "But is Tiantianyun mature now?"

"No!" Zhang Tiantian shook her head and said, "We have achieved initial results! The main purpose is to apply for more of the company's products to be tested on cloud servers!"

Chapter 482 The largest enterprise in the county

2005 12 Month 20 Day.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

After Zhao Han arrived at the company late, he was quickly caught by Zhang Tiantian and began to report to him issues related to cloud server technology and request resource support.

"Has the cloud server project achieved key results?" Zhao Han couldn't help but feel very excited when he learned that Zhang Tiantian had achieved some results without saying a word.

“It’s just a phased result.”

Zhang Tiantian said, “I hope to apply for a project that is actually in operation and conduct testing.

Otherwise, it is just an internal experiment without a large number of user tests, and the problem will not be discovered. "

"How are you going to test?" Zhao Han asked cautiously.

"Micro applications that are part of the Weibo network can be used to test cloud servers."

Zhang Tiantian said, "For example, some Weibo web games. Originally, the games used independent servers. If these servers are replaced with cloud servers, users will hardly notice the difference. If there is a problem, it is not Weibo, but only the Individual games.”

"Are you sure?" Zhao Han asked seriously.

"I'm sure!" Zhang Tiantian said.

"Okay! Let's use "Weibo Farm" to test the cloud server!"

Zhao Han thought for a moment and said, “If it doesn’t work, just keep polishing the product.

Of course, when you communicate with the microgame team, just tell me what I mean. If there is a problem, we will roll back the file in a timely manner and compensate the user. "

"Probably there won't be any problems!" Zhang Tiantian thought.

"Weibo Farm" currently has about 300 million daily active users, most of which are free users.But the daily payment ranges from [-] to [-] yuan to more than [-] yuan.

Its money-making effect is not as good as those popular client-side online games, but this lightweight casual web game can bring in millions of dollars in revenue every month, which is nothing short of a miracle.

Although there are millions of daily active users, "Weibo Farm" actually has less than 100 servers in use.

The main reason is that the data and bandwidth generated by this game are still very small.

Hundreds of servers are also used to build capacity. Even if the number of users increases to tens of millions per day, there will be no pressure.

Even though "Weibo Farm" is a game, the server resources it occupies are not necessarily much higher than those of a novel website, a web page with mainly text content.

The main reason why Zhao Han dared to let Zhang Tiantian test "Weibo Farm" is that this thing is just one of Weibo's monetization methods. Even if there is a short-term problem, it is just an apology to users.

The core social function of Weibo is as long as it can maintain smooth operation.

Using "Weibo Farm" to test is actually something Zhao Han has learned well.If the user base is too small, testing will be meaningless.

However, it is too large, involves the company's core business, and affects the basic business. If there is a problem when it is used to test the cloud server, the loss may be considerable.

For example, if Jingjing Reading Network is down for a few days, it will not only lose revenue and profits, but also destroy the ecosystem that was originally cultivated.

For example, the author group feels that if your server has been down for so long, they will naturally not believe in the future of the company, and will naturally lose a large number of authors. ,

The number of authors has decreased significantly, and the ecological foundation of novel websites has collapsed.

Weibo, Wenwen Service Network and even Jingjing Input Method will not have a small impact.

"Weibo Farm" is a small game developed by the company itself. The company's losses will be the company's own loss of revenue and reputation. If there is a problem with the game and it goes down, Zhao Han knows it very well, but if he gives some compensation, it will usually get over.

All game operating companies have similar routines.

If users are still clamoring for dissatisfaction, it may be that the game compensation is not enough.Give it a little more and it will pass.

……

"Mr. Zhao, hello! I've long admired your name, but I'm afraid of disturbing Mr. Zhao's purity, so I haven't bothered you too much."

Secretary Yu, a local official in Jiangcheng County, has a smiling face that lacks the authority of a local official, but is full of ingratiation to the company.

Zhao Han shook hands without being humble or overbearing and said: "Secretary Yu, you're welcome! You are more busy with business, and I am the owner of a small business."

"It's not small anymore, it's already very big!"

Secretary Yu said, "Don't talk about the valuation of the Internet, let's talk about the output value. Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company contributed one-fifth of the county's GDP!

Without your company, the county's GDP would probably have grown 15% less, and the growth rate wouldn't have been as amazing as 30%! "

Although Zhao Han is not very interested in the county's GDP.

However, I have heard a little bit, and many people in the market mentioned excitedly that the county's economy is blowing out, with an annual growth rate of 30%.

Such a terrifying growth rate is mainly due to Wenwen Jingjing's company, which probably contributed more than one billion yuan in revenue in 05, which is counted as the county's GDP.

There is actually a bit of moisture in it.

After all, Zhao Han didn't do the exact calculation, but he roughly understood that the company's annual profit in 05 should be less than 1 million.

Many projects have not yet reached the profit release period, and the main purpose is to attract users first and then increase revenue.Then profit will be released.

Of course, the company should directly create employment for no less than 1000 people in Jiangcheng County.The number of jobs indirectly created in various industries should be no less than 5000.

To put it simply, we still took advantage of the Internet dividends and fed back the economic development of the county.As a result, a backward county in central China quickly revitalized its livelihood due to the increase in the Internet economy.

Originally, there were no ready-made competitive industries, mainly agriculture and service industries, which created a large number of high-quality jobs, including working in factories. I'm sorry, but if you think about it, there aren't many factories in counties where you can work.

Most of them work in factories or in factories in other developed areas.

Simply put, in the past few decades, most developed areas in the country have seized the opportunities of industrialization and urbanization.The county seat has not grasped the fact that the output value of the largest factory does not exceed 3000 million a year.

Mainly, traditional agriculture in rural areas, with a small amount of mining and cement industries.

The others are mainly the so-called tertiary industry where you open a store and sell things to me, and I open a store and sell things to you.

Of course, all central counties are also inviting investment.

But the involution is so severe that all kinds of profit concessions cannot be attracted.

Because you have low labor costs and low land costs, but you are far away from the seaport or other transportation hubs, and far away from other supporting supply chains. In summary, it is still not cost-effective for investment.

This is why it is difficult to attract factories to settle just because of cheap labor.

Attracting industries requires systematic attraction. One or two factories are useless. A whole set of industrial systems must be gathered together to achieve high efficiency and low costs.

Industrialization means transportation costs and industrial chains are too expensive.In essence, many areas in Anhui Province are not as developed as Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The reason is very simple. They have coastal port areas that not only connect to the river but also the sea, and even border the Yangtze River Delta.

The geographical location determines that these areas with access to rivers and seas develop first.

When Jiangsu and Zhejiang are saturated, more production capacity will overflow to Anhui Province.

At that time, the supply chain in Anhui Province will gradually improve, and human resources will be cost-effective.At this time, the reason why Badu dominates the province's resources and various industries are prioritized to settle in Badu is too simple. First, it is concentrated to reduce supply chain costs and improve efficiency.After that, industries were gradually spread, and relying on the foundation laid by the hegemonic capital, we could welcome the overflow of industries from coastal provinces in the Yangtze River Basin such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Later, many industries that Jiangcheng County undertook, that is, projects that overflowed from Badu, settled in Jiangcheng County.

But there are still many years to wait for Badu to share the cake.

Zhao Han couldn't help but smile and said: "The leader is so polite!

I started my own business locally just because I am from Jiangcheng County, so living in my hometown is more familiar and comfortable.

Therefore, the company is located in the hometown, and the purpose is to leave tax revenue and employment opportunities to the hometown. "

"Okay! I really hope there can be more outstanding young entrepreneurs like you in the local area!" Secretary Yu said, "I think your company's headquarters is too crowded. I don't know. Are you considering expanding the headquarters?"

Zhao Han was stunned: "We who work on the Internet can squeeze in a little. If there are too many people, if it doesn't work, just buy or rent office space."

"In this way, there will be a 100-acre commercial land in the county next year, which can be given to your company for free." Secretary Yu said.

"Is this such a good thing?" Zhao Han was stunned. Although he knew that free land was often a means for local governments to attract investment, there were usually conditions attached.

"The conditions are also very simple. Your company will not move its headquarters to other places within 10 years. The land will be given away for free. If the headquarters moves within 10 years, you will either have to pay back the land payment or return the land."

Secretary Yu said, "There is also a need to start construction within three years to build the headquarters park, which will house no less than 1000 people."

"Okay!" Zhao Han had no plans to move out of the headquarters.

In addition, it really needs a more spacious headquarters.

Although there were additional conditions for giving land to the local area for free, Zhao Han decided to accept it.

After hearing that Zhao Han agreed.

Secretary Yu was very happy and said: “The county hopes to build an Internet industry cluster around Wenwen Jingjing Company.

I also hope that your company can give more pointers to new Internet startups in the county. "

"Ah?" Zhao Han was stunned, "There are many Internet start-up companies in the county?"

“Originally there was none!

Since your company's successful demonstration, in 05 alone, there were more than 200 newly registered Internet business-related companies in the county.

E-commerce accounts for the vast majority, and many of them are inspired by your company's success. "Secretary Yu said.

Zhao Han couldn't help but understand instantly, it turned out to be an e-commerce company.

It is estimated that most of the goods are sold on Taobao, which can be considered an Internet economy!

And these days, the easiest Internet business model for ordinary people to start is to open an online store to sell goods.
