Technology: Breaking the monopoly global hegemony

Chapter 769 Qualcomm and Nvidia

Silicon Valley is located in the northern part of California and the southern part of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Not only has it been the kingdom of the electronics industry and the computer industry for the past 20 years, but the venture capital in this region also accounts for one-third of the total venture capital in the United States.

Today, these venture capitals have completely become real "venture capitals."

The strong rise of Daxia Technology has caused the profitability of Silicon Valley companies to begin to decline. Google, HP, Intel, Pingguo, Cisco, Nvidia, Oracle, Tesla, Yahoo and other major companies will have different profits in 2022 from the previous ones. decline.

曾经有人统计过，硅谷有大大小小电子工业公司达10000家以上，所产半导体集成电路和电子计算机约占全美1/3和1/6。

These former glory are becoming increasingly tight shackles.

The increasingly stringent requirements of investors have made it more difficult for North American companies to raise funds.

Small and medium-sized enterprises began to go bankrupt, while large enterprises survived because of their strong capital and past glory.

As for investment institutions, more and more began to turn their attention to Daxia, the land full of gold.

The president of Qualcomm and the fourth CEO, An Meng, was looking out of the French windows with a gloomy face at this time, slowly heading for the Rolls-Royce in the distance.

He knew that sitting on this car was a large capital with a total value of hundreds of billions of dollars.

And he just sent the other party away with his own hands, in every sense.

"We will start to consider long-term benefits more carefully. If your company can't let us see stable future benefits, then this investment will be a friendship. Of course, our friendship will always exist."

The words of Gorman, the head of Morgan Stanley, are still ringing in Anmen's ears.

Amon clearly knew that it was impossible for Morgan Stanley's friendly investment to satisfy Qualcomm's development.

But so what?
He looked at the luxury car that disappeared from sight, and heaved a long sigh, and his whole body seemed to be getting old and decadent.

He took out his mobile phone and checked his address book, but he still didn't call another investment bank.

"Perhaps none of today's American investment banks dare to give us low-interest loans, let alone normal financing."

In just one week, the semiconductor industry led by Hanxing in Korea has fallen into a stagnation with no end in sight. The chips that Qualcomm handed over to Hanxing Electronics as an OEM have naturally become extinct.

Can a chip company have a future without chip output?
What's more chilling is that when Qualcomm was about to face foreseeable bankruptcy, former semiconductor alliance partners such as Pingguo and Intel chose to stand by.

Of course, there is language support, but it is limited to language support.

For other support, such as the help to even out TSMC's production capacity share, none of the partner companies asked.

And not only Qualcomm, but Nvidia, which relies on Hanxing Electronics to manufacture chips, is also facing the same experience at this time.

Even worse than Qualcomm, Nvidia President Huang Renxun has even seen letters in his mailbox that some companies want to acquire their own company's patents...

Obviously, many companies want to eat technology companies based on Hansung Electronics' semiconductors.

The danger of Daxia Semiconductor Enterprise is dangerous enough, but the meat on the lips cannot be ignored.

The once "unbreakable" Western Semiconductor Alliance suddenly fell into civil strife.

Carbon-based chips, Yunjin display panels, silicon-based chips, and Lingjing ecology, these four big killers are gradually conquering the city, and they have far exceeded the "expectations" of these Western semiconductor companies.

"Want to watch us die, don't you?!"

At this time, the gaze of Qualcomm President Allan became profound.

His heart is at war with heaven and man.

However, this mentality didn't last long. The arrival of a difficult brother made him feel much better.

The person who came was Boss Huang who once looked confident and felt that he was the God of the game party, Mr. Huang of Nvidia.

"The chip foundry business of our company and your company is extremely dependent on Hanxing Electronics. In the past, Hanxing Electronics' foundry was a little worse than TSMC. We wanted TSMC's production capacity, but these companies led by Pingguo treated us like thieves and strictly guarded against them. .

With the technical support of Kyushu Technology in recent years, the yield rate, manufacturing process, and foundry technology have been significantly improved.

Our company has placed a large order for Hanxing Electronics, and I believe your company will do the same.

But now, the factory of Hanxing Electronics is shut down, and it can even be predicted that the technical negotiation issue will definitely not be properly resolved. "

Huang Renxun's explanation made Qualcomm President Ammona uncomfortable.

"I know, I know what you mean, neither of our two companies have stable chip foundry channels.

I'm sorry if you want us to invest in chip foundry companies with Qualcomm and your Nvidia.

Our company can't provide this level of resources. I believe that not only Qualcomm, but also the whole of the West will not be able to create a semiconductor chip foundry that can replace Hansung Electronics from scratch. "

Huang Renxun pinched his nose and nodded awkwardly.

What An Meng said is correct. With the financial resources of the two companies, it is easy to start a chip foundry company, but if you want to become a semiconductor company like Hanxing Electronics that has both massive chip foundry production capacity and top-level high-end process chip foundry capabilities , That is undoubtedly a fool's dream.

But Huang Renxun's purpose is not here, so he stared straight into An Meng's eyes, and said mysteriously: "We have created such a powerful semiconductor company, and it is impossible for the West to create a third one, but Daxia Woolen cloth?"

"Summer?"

An Meng's heart skipped a beat.

"Yes, Daxia!"

"Our laboratory has cracked and reverse-engineered the chips produced by Kyushu Technology and Xia Wei.

Although Kyushu Technology's chip has very strong anti-disassembly settings, Xia Wei's Kirin chip does not have such a strong protection.

Our laboratory found that the steady-state micro-beam SS1MB light source used in Daxia's second-generation silicon-based chip technology is a powerful light source ahead of our EVU lithography machine.All the semiconductor industries that Daxia Semiconductor depends on for a living use this as the core technology for upgrading.

Although their semiconductors are not the fourth-generation and fifth-generation lithography machines as we define them, they are a semiconductor industry independent of our technology system.It is precisely because it is so special that it can support the unique chip architecture and algorithm of Kyushu Technology.

According to the speculation of our chip engineers and R&D personnel, even if Pingguo's latest chip can have the ordinary level of the Chenxing chip under ideal conditions, it will definitely not have the data processing performance and AI intelligence comparable to the Chenxing chip. "
