Technological Hegemony

? Silicon Valley, California.

During the period when Chinese people were happily celebrating the Spring Festival, a storm swept through Silicon Valley like a hurricane. Unfortunately, Mr. Roy and his world's largest EDA tool company, Cadence, were in the midst of this storm. center.

In this world, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests.

The announcement of Stellar Technology's withdrawal from the North American market has harmed the interests of too many North American companies, so they were extremely angry and pointed their finger at Cadence.

All companies that use EDA tools usually also use CFD and CAD tools. Now all the company's customers quit, and they called Mr. Roy one after another, threatening to stop Cadence's products.

Mr. Roy finally experienced the feeling of wanting to cry without tears. Luo Jia's quick action and resolute strikes exceeded everyone's expectations. He didn't even plan to go to Congress to defend himself, but directly countered his opponent.

Luo Jia’s statement said that because Cadence and Synopsys sued the company’s products in Congress for national security, out of prudence, the company decided to withdraw from the North American market, but considering the interests of customers, it will withdraw Thirty days later.

What a righteous speech, it is not that we want to withdraw, but our competitors force us to withdraw.

Moreover, we are a very responsible company, and we specially set aside 30 days for you to switch to other design tools.

Anyway, in the eyes of everyone, Xingchen Technology is very innocent. The cost of industrial software is so high, and it is free for global use. Give up serving everyone.

Of course, anyone who believes Luo Jia's nonsense must be out of their minds. Business is more cruel than war, and free is more expensive than charging. This is an eternal truth.

But human nature is greedy, businessmen are profit-seeking, and everyone likes to eat this. If anyone stops them from using the free Star Industry, they will bite.

"If I knew now, why did I have to!" Mr. Roy moaned painfully in the office with his head in his hands.

He left the office in a daze, and saw the president, Raj, who was having fun with a group of Indian engineers. He couldn't see that they had any worries about the company's current predicament.

But as soon as he turned around, when Raj saw the boss, his face immediately changed.

A group of people ran over and frantically flattered the Chairman,

At this juncture, the Indian engineers still swear that they must have the ability to bring down the group of Chinese people who don't know how to flatter them.

Mr. Roy raised his forehead and thought, you should not be engineers, you should go to Bollywood to make movies!

Mr. Roy began to miss those unknown Huaxia employees. They always worked with their heads down, didn't like flattery, and didn't engage in office politics. They worked hard day after day.

It's a pity that it's too late to say anything. Cadence's entire Huaxia team collectively jumped to Star Technology and became their most terrifying opponent.

 …

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, the Spring Festival holiday of Xingchen Technology is over.

As the straight men of steel returned to work from their hometowns, good news came from North America. In the face of surging public opinion, the Republican Party announced that it would give up submitting a restraining order against Star Industrial Software.

Such a result did not surprise Luo Jia at all. There has never been a free lunch in the world. The reason why Xingchen Technology is willing to provide industrial software for free is to get this trump card in the global game and pave the way for longer-term plans in the future.

At the first regular meeting after the festival, the company's executives gathered together again. The Spring Festival and the good news from North America were a double blessing, and everyone seemed very happy.

"Of course we will continue to stay in the North American market." Luo Jia said with a smile, "After all, the more people use industrial software, the more people can't do without it, which is in our best interest."

"This is like Microsoft's operating system. Back then, Microsoft knew that piracy was rampant in China, but they were still willing to stay in this market in order to obtain greater profits and global domination in the future."

"With Microsoft's technical strength, are they incapable of completely solving the piracy problem?"

"No, they just don't want to solve it."

"Know how to make trade-offs, so Microsoft is a great company. People who only look at immediate interests often find it difficult to achieve real success."

Everyone nodded. Luo Jia was right. Star Industry, which does not make money, is actually one of the most successful products since the company was founded. With the power of Star Industry, Luo Jia tied the whole world to his chariot , mastered a sharp sword of Damoris.

Li Moran said with a smile, "Then I will make an announcement when I go back. Since North America gave up banning us, Xingchen Industry will continue to open."

Luo Jia shrugged, "There's no need to be in such a hurry. Let's wait a few more days. After all, in the matter of industrial software, they are begging us, not us begging them."

"In addition, the software department still has to maintain the current development progress. Industrial software is a huge category, and it is very critical to the company's next plan. Only after we have completed our own EDA software can we start with semiconductors. "

When it comes to semiconductors, everyone becomes extremely excited. After all, it is the top of the pyramid in the field of science and technology, and EDA tools are important software for completing semiconductor design.

If you want to engage in semiconductors, you must first design semiconductors, and if you want to design semiconductors, you must first have EDA. Both industry and technology are closely linked.

Of course, this plan will be relatively long, because EDA tools are the most difficult of all industrial software, and the EDA project department led by Wei Jianing has just started.

"Is there anything else?" Luo Jia looked around the conference room and asked.

Hong Tao frowned, "Mr. Luo, Huawei and Xiaomi are fighting again. They are both our partners. Do you want to mediate?"

Luo Jia shook his head with a smile and said, "It's just a partner, not a subsidiary company. It's inappropriate for us to intervene."

"Besides, back then, everyone united to fight against Samsung and Apple. Now that Samsung and Apple have been disabled, it is normal for the Big Four to start fighting each other again. For business, brutal competition has always been the essence of business."

"I see, if they are willing to fight, let them fight. We will not help anyone."

"And we really don't have the energy. The hardware department and software department are already full of jobs. In addition, we will soon face the problem of recruiting students from Star University. How can we have the energy to manage them?"

"Please remember that business competition will never stop, and we, Star Technology, must put research and development first at any time, and other issues are secondary issues. As long as we can improve research and development Go up, and everything will be solved."

 …

The first regular meeting after the Spring Festival set the tone for the company's future development, which was to overcome all difficulties and devote all efforts to research and development.

Luo Jia, as the head of the Tough Guys Group, will inevitably go to various departments after the festival, ask for their health, give everyone a welcome red envelope, and so on.

In general, except for the practice of gaining three catties every Spring Festival, I can't see any changes for everyone. After returning to their respective posts, they continued their previous work.

Enterprises, like people, will gradually mature. Compared with the early days of entrepreneurship, everyone worked as hard as chicken blood. Today's Star Technology has become more stable.

We have seen all kinds of storms and waves, even if we were almost banned by North America a few years ago, everyone didn't take it too seriously, thinking that the difficulties are only temporary, and as long as we work harder, we can always overcome them.

Two days later, BYD's boss Wang personally delivered the commercial vehicle ordered by Xingchen Technology to the company, which caused quite a stir.

Luo Jia also ran to look at it immediately, and saw a total of 120 custom-made commercial vehicles in the parking lot, all of which were white, with a huge rotating Galaxy logo on the car, and four large characters printed on it, Star University!

Open the rear compartment, there are dense electronic equipment inside, mainly the host computer for processing data, and the medium-sized receiver responsible for sending and receiving signals, etc.

There are four seats in the rear compartment. After the technical specialist in charge of admissions sits on it, he can monitor the whole venue, which is equivalent to a mobile information processing center.

Luo Jia has ordered a total of a thousand mobile data processing vehicles like this, and these are just some of them. According to his vision, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and the opening of elementary and middle schools across the country, the temporary admissions team of Star University, Going to go all over the country.

Such a large-scale operation cannot be handled by Xingchen Technology alone, and it also needs the cooperation of the education department.

In this regard, Luo Jia has already received full support from the top, and schools across the country are also very happy. After all, which school can send students to Star University is quite an honor.

As for the parents of the students, they are even more enthusiastic.

In this world, there is no parent who doesn't want their children to be famous. Star University has such a high level and such good treatment, which is unprecedented. Parents have been eagerly looking forward to this day. Star University, that's really a hit.

Luo Jia checked several cars in a row, showing a satisfied smile.

As his important partner, Boss Wang is very concerned about the special vehicles of Xingchen Technology, which can be seen from the fact that he personally delivered the vehicles to the door.

"In order to catch up with this batch of cars, we didn't have a holiday during the Spring Festival." Boss Wang said, "Fortunately, your mission has been fulfilled, and all your orders have been completed. These vehicles to be used in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai will be delivered directly to your company. The ones used in remote provinces are already on the way.”

Luo Jia nodded again and again. These 120 cars are used near Shanghai, and in remote areas such as the northeast and southwest, the cars are directly transported to the local area first. After the company's admissions officer arrives, he can pick up the car locally, which can avoid Laughton on a long drive.

Luo Jia thanked Boss Wang, and invited him to sit in the office for a while, chatting about the current progress in the field of electric vehicles and batteries, and then he got up to leave.

Standing in the middle of the company's parking lot, looking at those brand-new admission vehicles, Luo Jia and everyone in Xingchen Technology were all filled with emotion.

It's not easy to get to this point. Now that everything is ready, after the school starts, the national enrollment work of Star University will start quickly.
