Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 173 One month later, mass production of Ascend 910 chips
Hu Jiangshan said this casually, and Yu Sheng and his wife were unable to react.

"……what?"

"Boss, what did you say just now?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "Now that the power facilities have been taken over, you can use electricity. There is no need to save it. There is plenty of electricity."

Yusheng was stunned for a moment: "Is there electricity on the island now?"

Cui Xiuqin couldn't help but ask: "Boss, where is the electricity?"

Hu Jiangshan did not answer immediately. He turned his head to look outside the door and found something special near the door.

It was a black pillar, very short, probably only thirty or forty centimeters.

To be precise, it is a black stool.

If you don't look closely, it would look like stone.

This is not the power transmission terminal that comes with a tidal power station.

Such terminals are evenly distributed throughout the island at a very high density, which means that there are power outlets everywhere on the island.

I don’t know what materials these power transmission terminal facilities are made of, but they are anti-corrosion, waterproof, dustproof, and even fireproof and lightning-proof. They can be said to be very sturdy.

If it is not bombed with a nuclear bomb, it will definitely not be destroyed.

It may not be destroyed even by a nuclear bomb, it is definitely indestructible.

Hu Jiangshan walked over and lifted the cover on the side of the power transmission terminal, revealing the cables and interface terminals inside.

There are five or six interface terminals alone, which can meet the access needs of a large number of facilities and equipment.

Yu Sheng and Cui Xiuqin were shocked. They didn't expect that their family had stayed on the island for such a long time and hadn't noticed such a thing.

Cui Xiuqin said in surprise: "When did this appear? I have never seen it before!"

Yusheng also shook his head: "I haven't seen it either."

Hu Jiangshan smiled slightly: "It's normal that you haven't seen it. This was only recently completed."

The couple looked at each other with incredible and unbelievable expressions.

How come there is no movement at all when doing these things? They have been staying on the island the whole time. Even if they have something to do, they will not go to Hong Kong Island for more than a day.

Hu Jiangshan said: "The rest is not important. You should be able to connect the electricity, right?"

Yusheng immediately asked, "Boss, is there really electricity here?"

"You'll know after you try it."

Yusheng quickly took out a power strip from the house, skillfully connected it to the power terminal, and then tried to plug in the electric fan.

Soon, the couple exclaimed in unison.

The fan actually started turning.

"There's really electricity!"

"Oh my God!"

Wow! The two were so excited that they couldn't help but dance.

Yu Sheng then remembered and immediately expressed his gratitude to Hu Jiangshan, wanting to hug him and give him a kiss.

What a great boss in China! A fighter among bosses!
Having electricity is simply a luxury for them.

Just now they were still discussing the impossibility of solving these problems, but unexpectedly they were solved in the blink of an eye.

Hu Jiangshan waved his hand: "Okay, tell Awang and the others about this."

Yu Sheng and Cui Xiuqin nodded quickly.

Cui Xiuqin, in particular, ran happily to Awang's house to inform him of the news.

Hu Jiangshan spoke to Yu Sheng for a few more words, and after arranging these things, he returned to the Seahorse.

After working for a long time, Hu Jiangshan was indeed hungry.

Hu Jiangshan found some frozen pasta on the boat, heated it up using the equipment on the boat, and took a bottle of soda, drinking and eating at the same time, which was quite refreshing.

I remember that in his previous life, Hu Jiangshan ate like this so often that he even developed chronic stomach problems.

There is no other way. Research and experiments are extremely time-consuming tasks. I am so busy that I have no time to relax and have no time to eat properly.

Now the electricity problem on Tenglong Island has been completely solved.

Both Yusheng and Awang’s families must be very happy.

But this is just a preliminary achievement, and there will be many better things to come.

In another month, the infrastructure will be basically completed, and they will be able to use fresh water, inexhaustible fresh water.

Hu Jiangshan will also solve the island’s communication network problems recently.

It’s nothing more than building a signal amplifier, which is not a problem for Hu Jiangshan.

More importantly, the semiconductor production line will be completed in more than a month.

By then, Huayao’s chip needs will be met and even new customers can be developed.

Hu Jiangshan felt that the future development path was about to become clear.

Just then, the cell phone rang.

I looked at the caller ID and saw it was Chen Xiu Li calling.

Chen Xiu Li is the assistant appointed by Hu Jiangshan in the Shanghai Stock Exchange to help Hu Jiangshan handle liaison matters with Huaxin International.

With the help of Chen Xiuli, Hu Jiangshan also greeted the leaders of the branch of Hezhong Group in Shanghai.

The leader has no objection and fully supports it.

Of course the leaders must give their full support.

Who is Hu Jiashan?
Although he does not work in Hezhong Group, he is the son of a big boss. Maybe he will become their immediate superior someday.

At this time, Hu Jiangshan felt that the status of a rich second-generation and a young master was indeed very useful.

Chen Xiu Li called, most likely because something happened at Huaxin International.

Hu Jiangshan pressed the answer button and Chen Xiuli's gentle voice came from the other end.

"Mr. Hu, is it convenient to talk now?"

"It's convenient. What's the matter? Tell me."

"Mr. Hu, Huaxin International is urging us to deliver the goods and asked when we can prepare them. Their logistics vehicles are ready."

Hu Jiangshan laughed. Huaxin International was indeed very anxious.

The delivery deadline was one month, but less than half a month had passed and Huaxin International was already anxious to get the goods.

But it doesn’t matter. The sooner the goods are delivered, the sooner we can feel at ease.

Now the matters on General Island and Tenglong Island have come to an end.

Hu Jiangshan thought for a moment and said, "Three days later. If nothing unexpected happens, we can ask them to go to Guangwan Market to pick up the goods in three days."

"Okay, Mr. Hu, I'll go to Guangwan City to help you with some chores then."

"Okay, no problem. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's my duty, Mr. Hu."

Chen Xiuli's voice makes people feel tingling.

She is truly a beauty.

Hu Jiangshan thought of the day when he drank coffee with Chen Xiuli in the hotel.

After hanging up the phone, Hu Jiangshan lay on the large sofa and browsed social media on his mobile phone.

The information on the Internet seems to be no different from before.

[Huayao P30 mobile phone is selling well, and the number of orders is said to have exceeded 600 million]

[Huayao P30 mobile phone may become the best-selling P series mobile phone in Huayao's history]

[Orders for Huayao's new flagship mobile phone surge, whether it can be delivered becomes the key issue]

[Huayao customer service received a large number of user complaints, and slow delivery became a major complaint]

[The chip problem is only solved as it seems, Kirin chips are still in short supply]

You can find news like this just by browsing.

And now there are still many people on certain blogs showing off the P30 phones they just received.

However, the confrontation between the two sides in the comment section was very intense. Moreover, the comments that sang the opposite tune now seemed to have the upper hand.

"This is fake. I have seen similar pictures many times."

"You're right, it was posted by the troll army. How could so many people buy the P30 phone? It's expensive and not easy to use."

“P30 is just a tax on your IQ!”

“Many people bought it, but none of them received the goods.”

"Two of my friends have ordered P30 phones, and it's been almost a month, but they haven't been shipped yet."

“I heard that Huayao is also having a headache because it can’t produce mobile phones at all.

"Hey, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Huayao is just holding on. In fact, there is no mobile phone chip available."

"How ridiculous! Huayao is trying to fool the public, and sooner or later it will be exposed!"

"It feels like Huayao is going to fail this time."

Although there are still many netizens in the comment section who support Huayao and refute these negative comments, their voices are still relatively weak and their momentum is not high.

This shows that even netizens who support Huayao feel that Huayao has encountered considerable trouble this time.

Of course Hu Jiangshan knew what was going on.

He had communicated with Wang Chengdong before.

The reason for the slow production of Huayao P30 mobile phone is not entirely due to chips. It is mainly because several production lines in the southern factory had to be shut down due to parts supply problems.

Anyone who has worked in high-end manufacturing knows that once a production line is shut down, it is difficult to restart it and it takes time to debug.

Huayao should be solving this problem during this period.

Of course, Kirin chips do have insufficient production capacity.

This is Hu Jiangshan’s fault.

Now Hu Jiangshan is working with all his strength, and the semiconductor production line is running till smoke comes out, but the production capacity cannot meet Huayao's needs.

That’s an order for more than 600 million mobile phones, which means more than 600 million Kirin chips.

However, this major shortcoming can be resolved in more than a month.

As long as Tenglong Island’s second semiconductor production line is started and enters mass production, Huayao’s chip crisis will be completely resolved.

This happened several years earlier than what Hu Jiangshan experienced in his previous life.

Just then, a Weibo post caught Hu Jiangshan's attention.

It is also about Huayao, but it is not about the P30 phone, nor is it about the Kirin chip.

[Insider: Huayao AI chip Ascend 910 cannot be mass-produced in a short period of time]

Such topics are relatively unpopular, but this one is different, with a certain number of clicks and comments.

After all, it is also about Huayao and is the focus of attention on the Internet.

By the way, Hu Jiangshan recommended Huayao's Ascend 910 to the chief engineer of HKUST Feixun some time ago.

At this time, HKUST Feixun was already working on an artificial intelligence project and was in urgent need of AI computing chips.

And they are accustomed to using Eagle NVIDIA's GPU graphics cards as computing cards.

Due to various reasons, Eagle Weida has started to ask for exorbitant prices and has raised prices significantly.

So Hu Jiangshan recommended Huayao's Ascend 910.

Ascend 910 is a dedicated chip developed by Huayao specifically for artificial intelligence computing.

Huayao is the first company to take the plunge.

During this period, the performance of the Ascend 910 chip was very powerful.

You should know that at this time, Eagle NVIDIA had not yet officially launched its dedicated computing chip.

EagleVision should also be developing it now, and will launch the two top-level AI chips, a100 and h100, in two or three years.

So at this time, Huayao has taken the lead in artificial intelligence chips.

Unfortunately, the beacon country on the other side of the ocean is exporting it crazily, so the Ascend 910 chip will be discontinued for a long time in the future.

This has led to the dominant position of EagleVision AI chips.

This is what happened in Hu Jiangshan’s previous life.

If Huayao had not been affected, EagleVision's AI computing chip would not have been so outstanding.

Come to think of it, Huayao is indeed unable to produce the Ascend 910 now.

It is no longer possible for TSMC to produce any chips for Huayao.

Hu Jiangshan clicked on this Weibo post and read the content.

Obviously, this so-called insider might actually be an insider of Huayao.

What he described was pretty much the same as reality; the details weren't so clear, but that was the situation.

Looking at the comment section, most of the people who posted the comments are indeed people in the industry.

There are also some technology enthusiasts and netizens who are concerned about the chip industry.

"What a shame. I heard that the AI ​​computing power of the Ascend chip is very strong."

"We can't help it. The Lighthouse Country is too crazy right now. Huayao's Kirin chip mass production is in trouble, not to mention Shengteng."

“The Ascend 910 should be a 990-nanometer chip, right? If even this can’t be mass-produced, then the Kirin probably can’t be either.”

"It's over. This chip is stillborn."

"We originally wanted to purchase this chip for our artificial intelligence project, but I'm afraid we can't get it done now."

"Forget about it, husband, just use Eagle Nvidia graphics card."

“I heard that Eagle NVIDIA is also developing the same dedicated AI chip, but the price will definitely be very high.”

"This time, Eagle Weida has no competitors, so it will definitely raise prices like crazy."

"It's a pity that Huayao's development has been curbed."

Just then, Hu Jiangshan's cell phone rang.

【Caller ID: Wang Chengdong】

Hu Jiangshan was stunned at first. If he mentioned Cao Cao, Cao Cao would appear.

Hu Jiangshan answered the phone immediately.

"Brother Hu, are you busy recently?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "Busy? Of course I am busy, otherwise how can I deliver the chips to you?"

Wang Chengdong laughed and said, "Thank you very much, thank you for your cooperation, Brother Hu."

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "I just checked online, and your mobile phone production capacity has not yet been increased."

"Hi! I'm working on it now. It should be almost done by next week."

Hu Jiangshan didn't say anything, waiting for Wang Chengdong to get down to business.

"Brother Hu, can you spare some chip production capacity?"

Hu Jiangshan was stunned: "What are you doing? What kind of chips are you producing?"

"We have a chip that needs to be mass-produced urgently, but the manufacturing process is less difficult than Kirin 990+. You should be able to handle it, but the production capacity... I am mainly worried that the production capacity pressure on your side is too great. At this time, you still have to give priority to the production of Kirin 990+."

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "Boss Wang, is this Shengteng 910?"

"Ah? How do you know?"

Obviously, Wang Chengdong was very surprised. He didn't expect that Hu Jiangshan could guess it so quickly.

The Shengteng chip project has not yet been made public, and only some people in the industry have heard of it.

Of course, Hu Jiangshan is also an insider in the industry, but he has been in Hong Kong Island for many years, so theoretically he is not so well-informed.

Hu Jiangshan said: "I just saw on a blog that the Ascend chip was difficult to produce."

Wang Chengdong smiled bitterly and said, "Good news never travels far, but bad news travels a thousand miles."

Hu Jiangshan said, "Mr. Wang, please have someone send the IC design over so that we can try it out first."

Wang Chengdong quickly asked: "How do we solve the problem of production capacity?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled slightly: "Boss Wang, give me a month, and then the production capacity will be completely solved!"
