I Am the President of the University

Chapter 486 Unreliable Allies

(The first two chapters were revised in the afternoon, you can refresh it again)

"Mr. Mollenkov, regarding the optical core of Guanghua University, I hope Intel and Qualcomm can shake hands and fight against China together!" Intel CEO Swan said with a serious face.

In fact, the relationship between Intel and Qualcomm was not good before. In most cases, they met, and it was in competition.

In the PC era, Intel was the absolute leader in the chip field, but due to the misjudgment of the mobile industry and the missed mobile terminal, Qualcomm's rise led to the domination of mobile communication chips in one fell swoop.

To be precise, these two companies are not pure processor companies. Intel belongs more to the IT (computer industry), and Qualcomm belongs to the CT (communication industry), and the grievances between the two originated in the 3G era.

At that time, the three major international standards in 3G were TD-SCDMA in China, CDMA2000 in the United States, and WCDMA in Europe.

When it comes to CDMA2000, the core patents at that time were all in the hands of Qualcomm.

Forced by the three major standards in 3G are CDMA as the core, so in the three 3G standard products, have to pay huge patent fees to Qualcomm, also known as "Qualcomm tax" by the communications industry.

Later, because Qualcomm charged too much royalties, the entire communications industry was still full of complaints and wanted to kick Qualcomm secretly.

Coincidentally, the telecommunication industry kicked off the dawn of Qualcomm, precisely brought by Intel.

In 2001, Intel attracted a group of small partners and established the Wimax Forum, wanting to bypass Qualcomm and play by itself. Finally, in October 2007, Wimax was accepted by the ITU as the fourth international standard for 3G.

At that time, American operators and equipment manufacturers announced their support for Wimax, which moved the interests of Qualcomm. Not only disparaged Wimax on various occasions, but also refused to produce Wimax chips. At the same time, it also requested Apple to announce its boycott of Wimax by cutting off the supply of cores and high rebates.

In the end, Wimax died due to various reasons, but the beams of Intel and Qualcomm have been forged since then.

Later, the cooperation between the two was almost negligible because of the strong competition in Apple's mobile phone baseband orders and the router chip market.

Today, the two old rivals were scared by Guanghua University's optical core to shake hands and make peace.

"Cooperation is no problem, but how to cooperate? How to fight against the optical core of Guanghua University's research and development center? These are the key points." Qualcomm CEO Mollenkov said calmly.

"Sheet! This is indeed a big problem, but shouldn't we confirm the partnership first, and then discuss how to deal with Guanghua University?" Swan cursed Guanghua University in a low voice,

Unlike Mollenkov, his face is not very good-looking.

The 2020Nature China Forum held in Huaxia this time, the other party seems to have no intention of keeping it secret at all, as long as there is a media application for live broadcast.

Especially in the morning of China time, at the three presentations by Chen Hao, Chen Chong and Ren Hong of Guanghua University, all the executives of Intel Corporation were directly watching in the conference room.

After listening to Ren Hong's report, several technical experts in the conference room fell into silence.

Obviously, it's only a matter of time before Guanghua University's optical core technology was broken, as for a year...

It's not a big hope, but it's still possible.

According to the report made by Lenovo Chen Hao, the other party's photonic screen is no longer satisfied with the mobile phone screen market, and is ready to enter the computer screen, TV screen and other markets.

After the other party's optical core is mass-produced, it is impossible for the other party to focus only on mobile phone chips, and it may also involve the field of PC chips.

When the optical core enters the field of PC chips, how can Intel withstand it?

Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to stop the other party before the development results of the other party.

"What does Mr. Swan think we can do?" Molenkov sneered on his face, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

"Sanction each other?"

"How to punish?"

Through the screen, Mollenkov looked coldly at Swan.

"Photonic chips are different from traditional electronic chips, and can completely bypass many steps, and Huaxia has already seen a number of good companies from EDA software to packaging and testing."

Mollenkov's voice continued.

"And I believe that Mr. Swan should have also received the news, right? Huaxia has set up an optical core industrial park in Ludao, and a group of chip-related companies have already settled in. Under the great power of that country, they have already set up an optical core industrial park. The mass production of optical cores has been adjusted."

Mollenkov's voice was tired, lost, and powerless.

Huaxia is not like ordinary capitalist countries. Many enterprises are state-owned and central enterprises. Under the control of that country, these enterprises can be twisted together like ropes.

This is completely impossible in beautiful countries, in Europe.

Swan can understand, this guy has been timid before the battle!

He sneered and said in a bad tone, "So, has Qualcomm given up?"

"Of course not. Cooperation is certain. As for how to cooperate, we will discuss it slowly." Molenkov shrugged and said.

After the teleconference was over, Swan's face instantly turned purple, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy.

"This damn bastard!"

Swan was furious and spewed fragrance in the conference room.

After venting for a long time, he thought about it.

Qualcomm has served as CEO of Qualcomm since 1985, when founder Irving Jacobs has served as the company's CEO. Mollenkov is the third CEO, and has served since 2013.

It's just that some rumors have come out, and it is no surprise that Molenkov will step down as CEO next year, and Cristiano Ammon, the current president of Qualcomm, will serve as the fourth CEO.

This guy is about to step down, and the stock has gradually dropped a lot, and his attitude towards Guanghua University is also quite negative.

Swan gritted his teeth and said, "This damn Guanghua University, is the mobile chip market too much to feed you?"

As long as Guanghua does not enter the PC chip market, Qualcomm is killed by the other party, and Intel is happier than anyone else.

Sitting at the desk, Swan's eyes flickered.

Allies are unreliable, they are even more stupid than pigs, and they can only rely on themselves.

...

December 23.

On the second day of the 2020Nature Forum, this day mainly focused on the special reports of each sub-venue.

The guests and accompanying people who are interested in the special report can go to the sub-venue to listen to it.

Of course, in addition to the special reports in the sub-venue, there is also a Poster posting area.

Generally speaking, an academic conference is not only a venue, it also includes at least two areas: the sponsor's product exhibition area, and the Poster posting area.

The Poster posting area is mainly for some papers submitted for this conference, but the China Forum held by Guanghua this time does not lack papers and does not need to submit papers.

However, due to the limited number of oral presentations in the sub-venue, all the remaining guests who want to present their research results or want to communicate with others can set up a booth here.

It's just this stall that trades not goods, but knowledge.

The poster posting area is a bit simple, that is, the paper is posted on a thin wooden board, and the stall owner is standing aside, expecting to meet a visitor who knows the goods, and another academic soul collision.

Chen Hao's figure slowly shuttled in the Poster posting area, and his eyes swept across the posters of the papers.

Looking at these titles, he couldn't help laughing.

Because the invited guests are experts in the field of materials and semiconductors, many papers are on polymer materials, metal materials and so on.

"It's interesting, flexible batteries have appeared, so lithium-air batteries must be there, right?"

Chen Hao laughed in a low voice, but his smile hadn't converged yet, and his expression froze in the next second.

Looking at the English poster in front of him, Chen Hao read the title aloud:

"Preparation of key materials for lithium-air batteries and research on their properties..."

ps: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!

The next chapter will be late.
