Reinventing the Millennium

According to Intel's original plan, although it has released the 14nm Core processor in the middle of the year, it will still be officially launched in early 2015.

This is undoubtedly the time for Intel to continue to improve the yield and polish the process. After all, it has the world's number one process technology.

However, the breakthrough of Bingxin shocked the world, and the title of "world's number one" changed hands, which made Intel unable to sit still. After weighing the pros and cons, a new decision was made.

Dongfang's Bingxin will be launched this year, so ours will not only be launched this year, but also in 2014.

Coincidentally, as soon as Intel had such a rumor, another leader in wafer manufacturing also released the latest news through communication with customers, that Taiji will complete the introduction of customer products on 16nm in Q1.

This time is also earlier than the original arrangement.

With the actions of Intel and Taiji, Samsung, which was hit hardest by Yike + Bingxin this time, also took action. It, it... its head Lee Kun-hee appeared and spoke.

Intel and Taiwan News are making moves on the process technology, while Samsung is making trouble in public opinion. However, it is not capable of mentioning the process technology.

Samsung already has problems with the 28nm process technology. It has finally survived a year. On the one hand, it faces the abandonment of its major customer Apple, and on the other hand, it is only advancing the 20nm process step by step.

28nm is desperately patched, which is still satisfactory, and 20nm is adapted to the front gate solution again. Its process progress is actually very satisfactory to Samsung.

Samsung is quite ambitious in wafer manufacturing this year, but...

But, the next door Bingxin International directly pulled the full strength and overtook the curve and launched 16nm, and Samsung's high-end mobile phone Trump series was the first to bear the brunt!

This manufacturing process is difficult to give a strong response like Intel and Taiwan News, so the only thing to do is to invite the respected head Lee Kun-hee.

Although Lee Kun-hee took over Samsung from his father, he has developed Samsung from a second-rate enterprise to an electronics giant over the years, and is well-known not only in Korea but also in the world.

People at the time commented on him, "He speaks softly, but as long as Lee Kun-hee coughs, the whole of Korea will catch a cold."

The head of Samsung, this time because of the progress of Yike and Bingxin, he rarely accepted an interview in recent years, and used a lot of space to evaluate this news that also shocked him.

"Yike is rooted in the advantages of the Chinese market and has become a global mobile phone giant."

"The most important thing is that Yike has completed the control of upstream and downstream industries. Whether it is hardware or software, whether it is self-designed chips or persistent manufacturing, this system with Yike as the core has taken shape."

"It is surprising that Bingxin International took the lead in launching 16nm this time, but under the effect of such a complete system, its progress is only sooner or later."

"I admire the achievements of this company in such a time, but, as the vice president of Taiji said, the linkage between Yike and Bingxin is a serious damage to the global supply chain."

"It's time to take more competitive actions against it, otherwise, a new Nokia will be born."

"No, a new Nokia has already appeared vaguely."

"Nokia has fallen, and the world does not need the emergence of a second Nokia, let alone a Nokia from China!"

Lee Kun-hee highly praised Yike's achievements. As for his accusations and appeals, the former pulled Taiji, and the latter was undoubtedly a call to the leader of the international order.

It has to be said that the voice from the old head of Samsung really added fuel to the public opinion and was widely reprinted by many well-known media.

Yike products are still selling well. There is no major coverage of Samsung's troubles in China, and the limited reports have also attracted unanimous ridicule from netizens.

Fang Zhuo also received many interview requests from overseas media after the interview with the aging Lee Kun-hee. He hesitated for two days and finally agreed to the interview from Bloomberg.

This kind of public opinion offensive has always existed, but it is particularly strong because of Yike's Mars 8.8, and blindly avoiding it is not a good way to deal with it.

If even Yike's people have no voice, the situation, which is not good, will become worse, and naturally no one else will follow suit.

Bloomberg is an old friend, and this interview was not a phone call, but an interview that flew directly to Shanghai.

Fang Zhuo in the interview camera was energetic and seemed to be unaffected by some recent American public opinions. He responded politely to the concern of the head of Samsung.

"I noticed that some people were talking about Yike's products recently, but I was still surprised that Samsung's Lee Kun-hee also came out."

"I had wanted to visit Samsung's CEO Lee several times, but I always failed. This time, I heard CEO Lee's evaluation of Yike. I was grateful for his concern, but I also felt complicated."

Fang Zhuo suddenly laughed when he said this: "After all, Samsung brought Mr. Lee out of the hospital to speak out. It really cares about the decline in the global mobile phone market share this year."

He knew that the health of the Samsung boss was not very good, and Samsung was obviously speeding up the transfer of work to the hands of the crown prince Lee Jae-yong.

"Samsung is not satisfied with Yike's lead, which is understandable to me. The direct competition between the two companies has already been decided. As for the destruction mentioned by CEO Lee..."

"It is strange that Yike has been relatively pioneering in smartphones in recent years. We have participated in the construction of the Android system with Google, breaking the closed systems of the past and using open source."

"Yike has been troubled by patents since entering the mobile phone market. We have fought hard with companies such as Nokia, promoted progressive ideas, and finally formed a new patent framework and established the PRO Alliance for cross-patent licensing. A number of well-known manufacturers such as HTC and Sony Ericsson are members of the alliance, and Samsung is also a beneficiary."

"Also, Yike has made high investments and extensive cooperation in hardware. I We have satisfactory connections with world-renowned suppliers such as Schott Glass Factory in Germany and Sharp in Japan. "

"Yi Ke actively participates in promoting the global supply chain, actively leads the development of smartphones, and actively provides better products for global consumers. "

"Yi Ke has never intended to become Nokia, but will only be the unique Yi Ke. "

"We are responsible to our partners, consumers, and also to the vast number of investors in Nasdaq."

Fang Zhuo talked freely in front of the camera, mentioned some of Yi Ke's construction in the past few years, and also mentioned the investors who shared the growth benefits with Yi Ke.

As a listed company, Yi Ke is stimulated by recent good news and is one of the few listed companies in Nasdaq, which in itself links the interests of many institutions and shareholders.

The head of Yi Ke did not avoid the problem, and as expected, it still had some effect.

Yu Hong, who had just planned to fly back to Shanghai, called and mentioned the latest invitation received. Washington invited Yi Ke's senior management to discuss measures that are more in line with the company's development interests.

"Just let Schroeder go. Yike's development in China still needs someone to keep an eye on it." Fang Zhuo frowned when he received the call from President Yu.

"You don't avoid the problem. People are also paying attention to the label of Huaxia. I have to show up anyway. What's there to avoid?" Yu Hong smiled, "Letting Schroeder go doesn't seem to be sincere. Let's try our best to mediate."

She said the company's established policy, no matter what kind of challenges are faced, both stick to the bottom line and mediate if they can.

"I don't avoid the problem, but I don't avoid the problem when I'm in China..." Fang Zhuo has some concerns.

"Yes, you, President Fang, are the most flexible and cunning." Yu Hong said, "It hasn't happened yet. If you are really anxious to slip back, you have to wait until the situation is intense. I think the recent public opinion is not very good, but the real attitude of Washington is quite ambiguous."

Fang Zhuo said "hmm". After all, there are friends in power, so they won't shout and kill so quickly.

Yu Hong was actually handed over some authority in the United States recently, not only in the affairs of Yike, but also in the lobbying leader Zhao Zhishan and the fund leader Kong Yu, who would provide information for reference.

This made Yu Hong more confident than before.

Fang Zhuo was still convinced. Yike was not only his own, but also... it belonged to the shadow shareholders. It was still possible to inform everyone in advance and avoid danger.

Even the Washington meeting mentioned by President Yu was only announced shortly after the phone call ended, and even the main measures they wanted were revealed, which was to cut off the connection between Yike and Bingxin.

Fang Zhuo thought about the changes that had come, the actions of his opponents, and the sense of ceremony of Intel's listing on December 31 at the end of the year. He also gave YMS an order with a little melancholy.

"Let Yisou go online on December 31 as well. Everyone should have some sense of ceremony to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new. Intel should have it, Yike should have it, and Duji should also have it."

Qi He received the order and understood that the responsibility for bidding farewell to the old was entirely on Intel.

While he was determined to execute it, he also asked about one thing. According to the plan, the short video software invested by Yike would also be launched online. How would this sense of ceremony be handled?

Fang Zhuo did not hesitate and gave the answer: "Next year on the 1st, this is to welcome the new students."

Ahem, outrageous, there was a temporary job, which disrupted the coding plan...
