The rise of nanometers

The atmosphere was silent for a while. Knowing that there is no free lunch in the world, Su Hua tried his best:

"Of course we want to enter the consumer electronics market, but that's not realistic."

Zhang Weixin shook the juice in his hand and said calmly: "I heard that Nokia suffered a very serious loss in Q2 this year. The fragmentation of the Symbian system and Nokia's stubbornness are destined to be defeated by Android and Apple."

Although the three Xizhou semiconductor giants focus on automotive electronics and industrial electronics, they still have some perspective on the evaluation of semiconductors as a whole and consumer electronics.

At present, Samsung and Sony Ericsson, the two mobile phone manufacturers based on Symbian system, have changed their flags and switched to Android system.

Only Nokia is left playing the Symbian system, and Nokia is very arrogant and sticks to the thinking of the feature phone era. As a result, the Symbian system does not support touch screens, and even downloading application software is very troublesome. This has led to a large number of application software suppliers to change Cast Android system.

Now with the rise of dragon totem mobile phones, domestic mobile phones equipped with Fuxi system will spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

The impact on Nokia's mobile phone business will exceed the original historical process.

Bob was quite sober: "But we have no experience in consumer electronics."

Whether it is its parent company STMicroelectronics, Infineon or NXP, it only has part of the production capacity of electronic components at most. It has basically no design experience and manufacturing technology in the core CPU, GPU and screen.

Bob and others still know how much their company has.

"We can provide CPU, GPU, and screen, as well as the system." Zhang Weixin replied with a smile.

Haha...Bob directly hehe.

These core components are all provided by Dragon Totem, so if I want to build a crappy mobile phone and computer, I might as well call it Dragon Totem Xizhou Branch, or Dragon Totem Xizhou Distributor.

Bob refused directly: "Zhang, this is impossible. Even if we agree, those gentlemen will not agree."

"Mr. Zhang, it won't do us any good to purchase CPUs or other things to make mobile computers." Li Er had the same idea.

Zhang Weixin shrugged: "That's such a pity."

Then Zhang Weixin changed his tone: "However, if you design the CPU yourself, it is not impossible to consider. With the intellectual property rights of Nokia and Ericsson in the field of communications, we have many chip foundry companies here."

"This..." Su Hua showed a thoughtful expression, then he looked at Li Er and Bob and made eye contact.

Obviously this proposal aroused their interest.

Although Xizhou Alliance is not well-known in consumer electronics, its accumulation of intellectual property rights in semiconductor and communication technology is still very strong.

In the field of communication technology and mobile phones, there are Nokia and Ericsson; in terms of system design, the British ARM company has the ARM architecture with a simplified instruction set; in the field of chip design and manufacturing, there are Italian Microelectronics, Infineon and NXP.

If we really put our efforts together, we can compete with Silicon Valley.

Bob asked hesitantly: "If the chip we design does not belong to the Fuxi architecture, can it still be manufactured in your company's factory?"

Lin Baijie pointedly reminded: "One more choice is better than no choice."

All the smart people present knew the implication of Lin Baijie's words. The semiconductor industry of Xizhou Alliance itself was outside the Silicon Valley system.

In terms of closeness to Silicon Valley, the semiconductor industries of Samsung, Japan, and Nanbo Bay are higher than those of STMicroelectronics, Infineon, and NXP.

Once there is any disturbance in the United States, such as technology export restrictions, it is easy to severely damage the semiconductor industry of the Western Continent Alliance.

This is why, after losing the lead in the field of consumer electronics, Xizhou Semiconductor companies dare not step in because they have no choice.

It's different now. If there is a problem with the Silicon Valley system of photolithography, they can still use the Suiren system of textile method, so that they will not fall into passivity.

After thinking about this key issue, Bob and the others became active. They watched the market of the Western Continent Alliance being taken over by the upstarts of the New World. It was impossible for them not to have grudges in their hearts.

There was no opportunity before, but now the opportunity is in front of us.

Bob thought for a while and said, "Lin, Zhang, I need to discuss it with the headquarters. After all, this matter is not something I can decide alone."

"This is natural. If you are willing to cooperate, it is not impossible to consider selling chip production lines." Lin Baijie threw out another bait.

Bob, Li Er and Su Hua smiled and said nothing. They were all sober about Lin Baijie's promise to sell the chip production line.

The key to textile chip manufacturing technology is not on the production line, but on those nanowires. Nanowires that can be produced in a large-scale standardized manner are the key core of this technology.

Even if they get the chip production line, the key core is still in the hands of Suiren. Just like Huawei, ZTE and Ziguang now, they have figured out the production line equipment of the textile method, but they do not have nanowires made of Suiren materials. The chip production line is A pile of junk.

Therefore, in their view, instead of purchasing a production line, it is better to let Datang, Ziguang and Dragon Totem manufacture it, so that they do not need to take unnecessary risks.

It's quiet at night.

The three Bobs each took their own cronies and left the headquarters of Suiren Company.

On the top floor of the Industry Department Building at Suiren Company's headquarters, Lin Baijie reported on the discussion just now: "...This is the result of the discussion just now, Xiuyuan, do you think those Xizhou guys will take the bait?"

Under the cover of night, Shanmei became more and more prosperous. The highway not far away was still busy with traffic. Huang Xiuyuan in front of the floor-to-ceiling window turned his head and said with a smile:

"They will take the bait. The Prism incident has not passed for too long, and the economic growth of the Western Continent Alliance is weak. Taking back consumer electronics and the Internet can boost their economy. Now it depends on how determined they are."

"I see it this way too." Jiang Hailin agreed with this view.

In the past, there was only one choice, but now there is one more choice. If they don't take advantage of Huaguo Semiconductor to take the lead and take advantage of the Silicon Valley system to develop their own semiconductor industry and Internet, then they will really lose their last chance.

Based on Huang Xiuyuan's understanding of these Xizhou troublemakers, they have long been very wary and wary of Apple, Google and Microsoft that monopolize the market.

Those billions and billions of fines are no joke.

Now that there is an opportunity to get rid of the control and infiltration of the Silicon Valley system in the United States, these guys will definitely be tempted.

But Huang Xiuyuan did not count on the Xizhou Alliance. The purpose of this move was to alienate the Western world.

Regardless of whether the Western Continent Alliance succeeds or not, as long as the other party begins to deploy semiconductor autonomy, the cracks in the North Atlantic will not be healed so easily.

Huaguo Semiconductor needs time to settle down, but the Silicon Valley system will definitely not give up. Therefore, it is the last word not to let the opponent pull the entire West. It is the last word to defeat them one by one.

Supporting the semiconductor industry in Xizhou can start a fire in the backyard of the Silicon Valley system and delay the Suiren system for some time.

Huang Xiuyuan can see now how courageous these Xizhou guys are.

On the other side, Bob and the other three took their respective teams back to the hotel and reported to the head office of the Xizhou Alliance overnight.

Thank you for your support (ω｀)
