Technology: breaking the hegemony that monopolizes the world

Intel CEO Pat, said in front of the media, "The business of High Tower Semiconductor has not increased enough in recent years, mainly because of the vicious competition of certain semiconductor manufacturers, but its professional technical capabilities, broad geographical coverage, and deep customer relationships have made a difference. Help expand Intel's semiconductor manufacturing operations and advance our goal of becoming a global semiconductor leader.

Our company will build new factories in Europe, America and other regions within three years to increase production capacity at the fastest speed. "

Although everyone knows on the bright side that the reason why Intel has made such a big move is because Pingguo abandoned it, which gave it a sense of crisis.

But as soon as it was included in the report, it was obvious and secretly related to Daxia.

In the past two years, Intel has entered a mode of aggressive expansion under the leadership of its CEO Pat.

In March 1021 of the Xiayin Star Calendar, it announced that it will invest 20 billion US dollars to build a fab in North America, and also launched a 1 billion US dollar fund to establish a foundry innovation ecosystem.

When the Anxi problem came up, they went to Europe and the United States to set up factories. Not only did the work be done, but they also showed their loyalty and set up the flag.

North America and the European Union have also introduced their own chip bills, and plan to invest 52 billion US dollars/43 billion euros to encourage local semiconductor production. At the same time, global semiconductor leaders such as TSMC, Texas Instruments, and Intel have raised their capital expenditure guidance, and global semiconductor production capacity is going through a new round of expansion cycle.

Coincidentally, AMD followed suit, and its official website officially announced that it had completed the acquisition of Xilinx in an all-share transaction.

Everyone knows the name of AMD Su Ma, but Xilinx, a little-known "small company", is rarely known.

Officially, it is the world's leading provider of complete programmable logic solutions. It is also an advanced research and development company of software design tools.

Even in the year 1018 of the Xiayin star calendar, it also acquired Shenjian Technology, a star start-up company in the field of AI chips in Daxia.

Regarding this acquisition, AMD President and CEO Su Ma said: "The acquisition of Xilinx brings together a series of highly complementary products, customers and markets, as well as differentiated IP and world-class talents, bringing us together. To be the industry leader in high-performance and adaptive computing.Xilinx's leading FPGAs, adaptive SoCs, artificial intelligence engines and software expertise will empower AMD to bring a powerful portfolio of high-performance and adaptive computing solutions , and help us capture a larger share of the estimated $135 billion cloud computing, edge computing and smart device market opportunity that is foreseeable."

The former Xilinx CEO chose to join AMD as president of the newly formed Adaptive and Embedded Computing Group.

He said excitedly in front of the media: "The combination of AMD and Xilinx will provide a very comprehensive portfolio of adaptive computing platforms that will power a wide range of intelligent applications, thus accelerating our ability to define a new era of computing."

Su Ma was laughing, and Lao Huang was crying.

Last year, SoftBank Group announced that it had agreed to sell chip design company ARM to chip giant Nvidia for as much as $40 billion.

This transaction has been criticized since the moment it was exposed. After all, ARM is too big in the field of semiconductor chips. In a sense, the life and death of many chips can be decided with one word.

It is conceivable that such an important transaction will eventually fail. Softbank will receive a "breakup fee" of up to US$1.25 billion and plans to list ARM before the end of the year.

At the same time, Nvidia's performance in the capital market was naturally hit, and its stock price plummeted by more than $30.

However, Nvidia is not in a slump. The failure of this acquisition is at best a pain in the neck. After all, N-series graphics cards are among the best in the field of gamers and servers, and the graphics cards with the highest market share.

Originally, Han Xing’s new mobile phone was released, and it received a lot of attention through crazy advertising around the world. After all, even though Han Xing has been bouncing around a few times, he has cultivated some brand fans over the years.

However, with the efforts of Nvidia, AMD, and Intel, the popularity of the Korean Galaxy S22 series has suddenly cooled. When the official launch on the 25th, there are almost no Korean mobile phone stores around the world except Korea.

Although Han Xing put in a lot of money and "explained in detail" the airline's blacklist, only those mobile phones that had accidents before were banned, and other mobile phones can already board the plane normally, but customers seem unwilling to buy it.

Or is it to wait and see?

After all, it is not necessary to use Korean mobile phones these days. Daxia's mobile phone manufacturer Pingguo mobile phones have given users around the world a very good experience in recent years.

Once this user calms down, the senior management of the Hanxing Group will not be able to calm down.

Li Zairong no longer knows how many sedatives he needs to take every day to maintain a normal mood, and many senior executives of Hanxing's mobile phone department have been optimized and dismissed.

If it weren't for Hanxing Semiconductor and many foreign companies' orders, I am afraid that the senior management of Hanxing Semiconductor would not be able to escape the end of being optimized.

This is that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if it is deflated in the world, Hanxing’s mobile phone brand influence is still among the top ten in the world. Semiconductors are beaten by Daxia Semiconductor and TSMC, but they are also among the top three global foundry companies. Lack of orders to make money.

After this battle, Li Zarong also wanted to understand one thing.

Fighting against the mobile phone manufacturers like Daxia and Pingguo Baba in the mobile phone industry is not only thankless, but also easy to provoke a whole body of sao, so after a few days of sedatives, he held a high-level meeting of Han Xing and decided to transfer the group The focus of scientific research is on the semiconductor manufacturing business, not only wafer manufacturing but also chip foundry, Han Xing has to be at the forefront!

Of course, this decision is not a final decision. The major shareholders in Europe and the United States have received a report from the head of Li Da before the meeting. The content is a bit long, but his heart is very loyal.

To sum up: Daxia Semiconductor is eyeing, TSMC’s production capacity is limited, Intel, AMD, and Nvidia’s chip production capacity is insufficient, and I, Han Xing, are willing to make another effort to expand production capacity and improve technology. The adults will have more than 90% of the dividends.

Among the heads of so many business giants and technology giants in the world, Li Zairong's attitude cannot be said to be low, it can only be said to be extremely humble.

But he also told the truth. The Li family is the head of Han Xing's face, but Han Xing's shares have been sold to foreign capital long ago. The fact that the Li family can control the management right now is the result of compromise between all parties.

But to be a dog, as long as the owner is strong enough.

With the development of the situation, sky-high price acquisitions and new product developments are constantly emerging in the global semiconductor industry.

The competition among giants in the semiconductor industry has set off an unprecedentedly fierce "Technology War".

After holding back for so long, the foundation was finally laid.

The events in the novel are all nonsense, please do not take it seriously.
