Chapter 436 Times have changed
Half a month later, the entire Yanguo auto chip industry ushered in a historic reshuffle.

Local auto brands in Yanguo, led by Changan, BYD, and Geely, took the lead in firing the first shot, directly issuing notices to North American chip companies such as Qualcomm, Nvidia, and Texas Instruments to terminate chip supply contracts.

The reason is simple, you have not joined the "Chip Development Alliance", and your chips have not been certified by the alliance, then we cannot cooperate.

Immediately afterwards, a series of joint venture automakers such as Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Toyota also proposed to terminate the supply contract.

Overnight, North American auto chip companies were almost uprooted.

Phoenix Group, Infineon, STMicroelectronics, and some small and medium-sized chip manufacturers quickly divided up the market share that originally belonged to North America, and new chip production factories sprung up one after another.

And just when North American auto chip companies were devastated by the loss of the Yanguo market, they found that...

Many overseas chip companies around the world supported by Phoenix Group have also begun to bring them considerable competitive pressure.

Texas Instruments, ADI, and Skyworks are the top three automotive chip giants in North America, and they are also the top five automotive chips in the world.

With their mature and stable performance and strong sales network, their previous automotive chips ranked among the top in global sales. Many automakers in India, Spain, Brazil and even Vietnam are their customers.

And now.

They found that these auto companies that had cooperated well began to reduce orders for auto chips!

The reason.

Naturally, because the Phoenix Group has supported their local auto chip companies, those chips that originally needed to be fully imported can now be partially replaced by domestic products!
Although it will not achieve complete replacement, there is no doubt that this is a very bad signal!

The sharp drop in market share and the plunge in global sales have deeply hurt the North American automotive chip manufacturers. The voices of various companies wishing to join the "Chip Development Alliance" of the Phoenix Group have grown louder.

It's not that they don't want to join.

But at this time, the peace talks between Yanguo and North America had reached a deadlock. After Yanguo announced the "Chip Development Act", the two sides were tearing their skins apart. No one dared to join the Phoenix Group's "Chip Development Alliance" without authorization at this juncture.

Just when there was a huge disagreement within North America, Yan Kingdom didn't give a chance to breathe, and struck again!

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of Yanguo released a new plan for the development of computer products.

"In order to improve the quality of Yanguo computer products and protect user privacy and security."

"All notebook computers, desktop computers and all kinds of computer hardware sold in Yanguo must be certified by the 'Chip Development Alliance' association before they can be sold and circulated."

"After half a year, the program will be fully implemented."

As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation all over the Internet.

If automotive chips are certified by the "Chip Development Alliance", only some automotive chip manufacturers and auto companies will be affected, and the impact will not be too large.

So now there are too many companies involved in electronic products such as laptop computers and desktop computers.

CPU, graphics card, memory stick, hard disk, there are more than dozens of related companies involved in the entire computer industry chain!

The number of domestic and foreign companies is hundreds of scales!
and.

The most important thing is that compared to cars, computers have a greater impact on ordinary people's daily life and are more closely related!
and so.

The news from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has just been released, and the attention on the domestic Internet has skyrocketed.

Netizens have never seen such a strong implementation of industrial policies by the Yan Kingdom government, and they all called it awesome on the Internet!
"Yoxi, good guy, 'Chip Development Alliance'! Although I don't understand it, I think it's very powerful just by hearing the name!"

"Haha, the one upstairs made me laugh so hard, it's called unconsciousness."

"Hell, let me explain. In fact, this is because the country is going to vigorously develop our own computer products."

"Now 75% of our domestic computer products are hardware from foreign manufacturers. The mainstream CPUs are from Inet and AMD, and the mainstream graphics cards are also from AMD and Nvidia. Although Phoenix Group's CPUs and graphics cards have sold well recently, their market share is still not enough."

"On the memory stick, Kingston is also a North American company, and on the hard drive, Western Digital is also a North American company..."

"Now the country is engaged in the 'chip development alliance', which is to kick out North American chip companies such as Inet, AMD or Nvidia, so as to make room for the rapid development of our domestic computer industry."

"Okay, thank you upstairs, if you don't say that I have been a Mongolian (drum) person all my life."

"66666..."

It is different from all kinds of teasing and guessing by netizens on the Internet.

With the lessons learned from the automotive chip companies, no one thinks that Yanguo officials are false.

North American companies Inet, AMD, Nvidia, Kingston, Western Digital...these big brands that are well-known in the computer industry immediately felt tremendous pressure.

For them, the Yanguo market is definitely a piece of meat that is hard to give up easily!

But they also knew in their hearts that in the past, Yan Kingdom didn't have the technology and dared not do it.

Now after so many years of development, Yanguo is no longer in the same breath in the computer industry chain.

The domestic computer companies headed by the Phoenix Group have already carried the banner of domestic computers, and it is no longer the Yan country that cannot even produce domestic computers!

On the computer CPU, Phoenix Group's Qinglong series has fully covered Inet's I series CPU.

on the graphics card.

Phoenix's "Yaoguang Series" graphics cards mainly focus on high-end graphics cards, while graphics chip companies such as "Jingjiawei" and "Moore Thread" that have been supporting focus on the mid- and low-end graphics card market.

To be honest, now domestic graphics cards have completed the full coverage of high, middle and low-end graphics cards.

And on the memory stick and hard disk.

Although North American companies such as Kingston, Western Digital, and Seagate have monopolized for so many years, in recent years, Tsinghua Unigroup (under Tsinghua Unigroup), Kimtigo (Shencheng), Asgard (Shencheng), Yangtze River Storage, Taipower, Guangwei, etc. Jiayan country's local enterprises still managed to find a way out in the sea of ​​swords and flames, occupying a place in the market!
said with no exaggeration.

Now that Yan Country's local computer industry replaces foreign companies, there are no technical problems anymore!

What they lack is just a "Dongfeng", an opportunity to completely reshuffle the industry!

and so.

Two hours after the news from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology was sent out, the blood of various computer companies in the country was boiling, and everyone knew that the opportunity to counterattack that had been waiting for many years had come!
The chip companies in North America held an emergency meeting, and they encountered the same problems as the previous automotive chip companies.

Either join the "Chip Development Alliance" led by the Phoenix Group.

Either give up the Yan country market.

The hardware manufacturers were in a hurry, all kinds of information were gathered to the other side of the ocean, and countless pressures were fed back.

The various notebook computer manufacturers are also holding emergency meetings.

Computer manufacturers are different from hardware manufacturers. They do not produce chips, but purchase hardware from various manufacturers in the market, assemble and debug them before selling them.

On the other side of the ocean, Aramco, the world's second-largest notebook sales brand - HP is also holding a high-level meeting!
"Everyone, with the lessons learned from the automotive chip companies, we don't have to doubt whether Yan Guo is serious!"

"The trend of the times, we must act now to confirm the cooperation with hardware manufacturers who have passed the verification of the 'Development Alliance' as quickly as possible."

It was the marketing manager of HP who spoke.

There was no hesitation in his words. Obviously, HP has already prepared for a big reshuffle.

When his voice fell, George, the purchasing manager next to him, said:
"Jess, it's not a big problem to find an alternative hardware manufacturer."

"After the Phoenix Group authorized us the 'future operating system', we launched two laptops with the Phoenix 'Xingyao series' CPU as the main configuration, and the hardware compatibility is good."

"Next, we only need to replace a part of the computer hardware to fully meet Yan Country's official sales requirements."

"only……"

Having said that, George showed a sad expression.

"Just by doing this, it means that we will significantly reduce hardware orders with Inet, Nvidia, Kingston and other companies..."

"They are really likely to be completely kicked out of the Yan Country market."

"Ha ha."

Hearing this, the marketing manager Jess sneered.

He looked at George and said coldly:
"George, put away your poor Virgin's heart, do you want us to be buried with them?"

"Our current global market share has been greatly impacted by Yanguo companies such as Phoenix Group, Huawei, and Rice. Do you mean that we are going to offend Yanguo officials?!"

"Do not……"

"That's not what I mean, Jess, I just think Yan Kingdom is too domineering..."

George said quickly.

"overbearing?"

Jess shook his head, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"If you want to blame it, you can blame the group of idiots who made the strategy in Washington. It is their failure in strategy that angered Yan Guo and completely attracted their revenge!"

"Okay, let's not talk about it, let's move on to the next topic, let's screen the suppliers from the memory stick first, Ziguang and Kimtigo have passed the certification of the 'Chip Development Alliance'..."

……

There are not a few notebook computer manufacturers that quickly switch strategies like HP.

Hewlett-Packard, Dell, Hongji, and ASUS adjusted their strategies for the Yanguo market one after another, and began to develop notebook computers to meet the Yanguo market.

It has to be said that the acumen of capital is the highest.

On the third day after the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the news, Dell took the lead in launching a notebook computer with a national production and a new national standard on its Yanguo official website.

Good guy.

Dell's preemption directly triggered imitation of all brands in the entire Yanguo market.

All of a sudden, well-known domestic and foreign manufacturers such as Huawei, Rice, Conscience, HP, etc. launched laptop models with the gimmick of "new national standard, national production", and began to publicize them.

No one expected that less than a week after the announcement of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the gimmick of "new national standard, national production" became popular in the entire IT circle and gained extremely high popularity!
Even more unexpected.

The time is far from waiting for the half-year deadline mentioned by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. In just one week, major computer manufacturers began to prepare to significantly reduce the production of computers configured with "Inet processors" and instead focus on the production of Phoenix "Qinglong series CPU" + "Future CPU" Operating system"-based "new national standard" computer.

Everyone knows that this will be the general trend of the Yanguo market in the future.

The sudden order made the companies in the entire Yanguo computer industry chain ecstatic.

Domestic companies such as Ziguang Guowei, Jingjiawei, Kimtigo, YMTC, Guangwei, etc. saw orders from major manufacturers that were difficult to obtain in the past, and now they are flying towards themselves like pieces of paper, almost waking up from a dream!
Many enterprises have fully opened their production capacity and started a new round of production expansion plans. At the same time, various bosses expressed that they must seize the opportunity of this industry reshuffle to gain a firm foothold!

And Yan Country's consumers are also very powerful.

During this period of time, due to the chip price war fought by the Phoenix Group, the prices of a large number of chips have dropped significantly.

Almost all CPUs, graphics cards, and memory have fallen below the reserve price, which has also led to a general decline of more than 1200 yuan for electronic products.

When the "new national standard, nationally produced" computers came out, many consumers saw that they were all domestic enterprises, domestic brands, and cost-effective, and they were a little moved.

When a comment "We can't buy such a cheap computer without domestic chips, so I support domestic production" appeared, countless netizens liked it.

As a result, a wave of domestic replacements quickly arose on the Internet.

soon.

Enthusiasm for sales has swept across the entire network. It can be seen with the naked eye that the share of North American computer companies headed by Inet has suffered a precipitous decline, and the share of the entire Yanguo computer company has risen rapidly!
Yanguo enterprises headed by Phoenix Group began to truly grasp the right to speak in the Yanguo market!
And just when domestic computers made a big counterattack and occupied the mainstream market, more and more people noticed a company that plays a pivotal role in the notebook computer industry.

That's right.

It is red fruit!

The MacBook Pro of the Hongguo notebook computer, and the IMac Yanguo sales of the desktop computer are very good.

This time, Yanguo officials proposed that if they want to sell in Yanguo, they must use chips certified by the "Chip Development Alliance"...

Then.

For such a powerful company as Hongguo, the world's top technology company, and a giant in the IT industry, will Hongguo agree? !
Or, will Hongguo directly withdraw from the Yanguo market? !

This topic has gradually spread on the Internet. Countless people are waiting and holding their breath. Everyone wants to see what choice Hongguo, the top company in Ami, will make!

And Hu Lai is also waiting for Hongguo's choice.

Two days later, the capital.

Director Wang's Office of the Ministry of Industry welcomed a special person—Kerry, Manager of Overseas Marketing Department of Hongguo Group.

Without too much politeness, the conversation between the two sides was on the verge of breaking out.

"Director Wang, thank you very much for meeting me in your busy schedule. This proves that we can talk."

"I'm not going around the corner anymore. Recently, your country officially released a series of plans that are very unfriendly to us. Obviously, they are forcing us to withdraw from the Yan country market. This is obviously very different from what you promised us at the beginning."

From the beginning, Carey got straight to the point.

Director Wang smiled lightly, obviously prepared for Kaili's arrival, and said in a leisurely manner:
"Mr. Carey, I must correct your wording error."

"I can say with great certainty that we have never forced any company to withdraw from the Yanguo market. We have always upheld an open attitude and welcome all companies from all over the world to come to build factories and invest. This is our consistent policy!"

"No, Chief Wang."

"The 'chip development alliance' you established is to force us to withdraw from the Yan country market."

Director Wang smiled slightly, and asked back:
"Are we restricting you from joining the 'Chip Development Alliance'?"

Carey was speechless.

After a while, he slowly shook his head:

"No, but..."

Director Wang directly interrupted him.

"Since we have not restricted you from joining the 'Chip Development Alliance', how can we say that we have forced you to withdraw from the Yan Country market?"

"As long as you join the 'Chip Development Alliance' and your products meet the sales requirements of our country, our market welcomes your products at any time."

"Could it be that... our Yan Kingdom formulates its own industrial rules, and we still have to satisfy you?"

Speaking of this, Director Wang squinted at Kaili, and continued:

"As for forcing you to withdraw from the Yan Country market, you can ask the authorities how they treat our company and what they have done to the Phoenix Group? I believe you know better than me!"

"Or, in your mind, only you can restrict the Phoenix Group and our companies from entering North America, and we can't?"

"That's not what I meant, Director Wang."

Carey quickly waved his hand. In just a few words, he realized that Director Wang's attitude in front of him was much tougher than before.

He didn't intend to get entangled in this topic, he quickly organized his words, and then said:
"Director Wang, we now have some differences on this issue."

"However, over the years, you should also know how much tax our Hongguo mobile phone has brought you, how many jobs it has provided, and how many upstream and downstream enterprises have been supported."

"so……"

"I hope that for the sake of these benefits, can you open a hole for our Hongguo company in terms of policy..."

After hearing these words, Director Wang's face became more relaxed.

His eyes slowly opened, revealing infinite reverie in his eyes.

It is undeniable.

The introduction of Hongguo mobile phone to Yanguo has brought a huge catfish effect to Yanguo's mobile phone industry, ushering in a huge development of the entire mobile phone industry chain.

Carey was right.

A large number of mobile phones are produced in Yan Country, which provides Yan Country with a lot of tax revenue and jobs...

but!

Get out!

Why does capital paint itself so high!
What did Hongguo get when they brought tax revenue and employment to Yan Country? !

They have received a lot of subsidies and benefits from Yan Country!

They got 30% of the revenue from Yan Country!
They get 4760 billion soft sister coins in annual revenue from Yanguo, and the net profit is as high as 2000 billion!

A profit of 2000 billion a year!
This is obviously a cooperation in which everyone takes what they need and trades with each other, but Hongguo insists that it is a charity for us!
It was they who helped us!

I bother!

it's so funny!

Why did Hongguo, who helped the people of Yan Kingdom so selflessly, withdraw from Yan Kingdom in the past two years, and then transfer the factory to Ganges and Annan, where labor costs are lower? !
Isn't it just that Yan Guo's bonuses have been eaten up, and he patted his ass to find another home?

They are all out to make money, why bother to sell and make money!

Chief Wang straightened his back slowly, took a sip of his tea, and looked at Kaili.

"Mr. Carey, times have changed."

"Join or get out."
