Coquettish Rebirth

"Sister Wang, how is your VIA company doing recently?" After Jia Hongjian called Wang Xuehong, he chatted for a while and then asked such a question.Originally, according to Jia Hongjian's understanding, VIA should be doing pretty well. Last year, didn't they say that AMD produced [-] million chipsets?Logically speaking, this day should be very good.As a result, who knows, Wang Xuehong sighed and said, "Hey, don't talk about it, it's really going downhill. You don't know, Hung-chien, I'm planning to reorganize the company sometime in the second half of the year and integrate several business departments." It's three. Integrate the platform business department, central processing unit department, and embedded R&D department into one embedded platform business department, otherwise life will be really difficult... If you want to fire some people at that time, I hope our joint venture The company was able to accept them, those people are really good, I personally interviewed and recruited them, but our business has dropped too much..."

Huh?Is this VIA so miserable?But when you think about it, it is true that Jia Hongjian has gradually lost the voice of VIA in the past few years. If you think about it seriously, this VIA is at least in the desktop or consumer market. So gradually retreated to the embedded market, focusing on the industry market and commercial users.Such a retreat is very similar to Sony, like the TV industry of Sony's later generations, isn't that also a serious loss?In the end, if such a brand is not divested, it will gradually withdraw from the consumer market in the end, and then it can only go to the professional market.On the surface, it seems that the professional market should be very profitable, just like the professional market that was the main focus of de back then.But the problem is that desktop computers in the professional market are different from other things!The desktop computer companies in the professional market are willing to spend money, and then they need to maintain it from time to time, especially with the development of the times, there are things like servers, which of course need to be updated and serviced. IBM relies on These live!But the embedded market is different.For example, can the embedded PU in a large aircraft be updated every few years?Even something like a professional monitor with hundreds of thousands of TV stations, is it normal for people to use it for decades!Like the consumer market, people buy new ones every day!From such a perspective, the decline of VIA in such an era.It's reasonable, and it's reasonable.Even Jia Hongjian knew that although it seemed that Huaxia VIA had won such a big contract from Huaxia Hi-Tech for netbooks before.But don't forget that after the big contract was over, Jia Hongjian has never said that he will develop follow-up products until now!Don't you know what it means until now?Even if everyone has a good relationship, it is unlikely that Huaxia Hi-Tech will buy VIA's consumer-grade PU later on. Even if you buy it, you will only buy embedded ones. So for VIA, isn't embedded technology the kingly way?

And to be honest, VIA retreated to the embedded market, in fact, this is not necessarily a sad thing!You must know that the installed capacity of PCs in the world will gradually shrink in the future!Even Lianxiang had to start making phones and tablets.Isn't this market situation obvious?People can't make enough money selling desktops!Moreover, mobile phones and tablets will greatly replace desktops and notebooks in the future, especially after Microsoft's "Sophie" comes out in the future, and even after the legendary in600 tablet of 8 RMB comes out, the notebook market will definitely Shrink further!At such a time, Intel is forced to have no way to enter the embedded market!They also developed low-power Atom series pus in 08!Therefore, even if VIA insists on consumer-grade pu, it will not be able to please in the next four or five years!It can be said that sooner or later you will have to quit! ...and the mobile market for mobile phones and tablets will greatly increase in the future. In history, arm companies have made money like crazy by relying on such a trend!Why can't Huaxia VIA catch up with such a trend?Right? In fact, the design of arm's pu is not much different from VIA's!It's just that arm's selling architecture allows people to modify and produce it by themselves.But they don't sell designs for Qualcomm's PUs, they just sell finished products, isn't it pretty cool to sell?So this matter actually depends on the performance, as long as the performance is good, as long as the energy consumption is low enough.As long as it's cheap enough, who wouldn't buy it?Therefore, other companies have not fully entered such a field, even when amd and Intel have not developed low-power pus.Let's staking the land first, and at that time, we will become the market leader just like arm in the market!

After thinking of this, Jia Hongjian was really ready to tell Wang Xuehong about his plan. "Sister Wang, sometimes it's a blessing in disguise...Let me feel it. In fact, it might not be a good move for VIA to enter the embedded market..." As he said, Jia Hongjian expressed his feelings towards VIA and Invista's idea of ​​cooperation came out.It can be said that he really shocked this Wang Xuehong at once with such a statement!Wang Xuehong just retreated passively before. Although she really wanted to develop well in such an industry, she really didn't expect to do this!After all, she is not a Reborn.He doesn't have Jia Hongjian's magical eyes that can penetrate the fog of time and space!

After hearing Jia Hongjian's words at that time, she asked half-believingly: "Really...do you really think the market will change like this?" Isn't this nonsense?If Jia Hongjian didn't think so.Why did you say it?Do you really think Jia Hongjian is someone who likes to fool people?Is he that kind of person?So at such a time, I only listened to Jia Hongjian's seriousness and said, "Of course, sister. Because we are designing a mysterious new product now, and such a new product needs your PU, it is best It is still a pu with a built-in display chip... At the same time, we also hope that VIA can provide us with a built-in south bridge chip, which is used to control audio and ifi control... and the demand may be 3000 to [-] million worldwide. The level of Taiwan. This is only a demand within one or two years. After one or two years, it is very likely that our mobile phones will also need this configuration. At that time, the demand for our VIA output will be large, and it may need [-] million a year. about a chip..."

"Really?" Wang Xuehong asked in great surprise at the time, she really wanted to hug Jia Hongjian and kiss him fiercely!She was so glad that she actually met Jia Hongjian!This is really good to know!With such a Jia Hongjian, her Weisheng suddenly felt that she could live on Jia Hongjian's orders, and she might still be able to live well!Even according to what Jia Hongjian said just now, first relying on Huaxia Hi-Tech's orders to live well, and then cooperate with Huaxia Hi-Tech to provide a complete set of solutions, that day will definitely be extremely nourishing!And such a good opportunity was given by Jia Hongjian!If Jia Hongjian doesn't give face, it has nothing to do with them that Weisheng really went bankrupt, doesn't it?

Thinking of this, Wang Xuehong is of course grateful to Jia Hongjian, and besides being grateful, she started to promote a new product of their VIA—"Mr. Jia, by the way, there is one more thing. We have developed a chip code-named 7-m. This chip is specially designed for the notebook market and embedded market. The average daily power consumption is only 2 watts, the standby power consumption is only 0.2 watts, and the power consumption is 1.5g Hz when running at full speed. The speed is only 12! And most importantly, our PU also has exclusive hardware encryption and decryption technology, which can store key information through PU code to encrypt and then store it in a dedicated storage body..."...

Huh?What?Does this VIA have such a baby?Such a kind of pu can still achieve such a speed of 1.5g Hz?Even if the performance of such a pu is not as good as other desktops, can it be compared with the 1.5g Atom pu that Intel will make in the future?Even if it can't be compared, it should be comparable to other people's 1g, right?Point again, 800mhz can always compare?In this way, it is more powerful than the high-end pu currently being designed!And such a power consumption is even more surprising!The full work is only 12, and the average working power consumption is only 2. What is this concept?According to the internal working voltage of 3.7v supplied by a lithium battery, for a power of 4800 mAh, multiplied by the end, it will be able to make such a pu work for 8 hours at an average power consumption!What is this concept?

要知道4800毫安时这还只是一个电池的容量，历史上的ipad那背面是一共装了3个电池！如果贾鸿渐他们这边用差不多总共12000毫安时的电池组的话，那更是可以让这么一个pu以平均工作功耗运行22个小时！如果是全速工作的功耗的话则是可以跑快4个小时！这是一个什么概念？就算是加上了液晶屏这么一个耗电大户，顿时感觉以平均功耗来说运行个8个小时到10个小时完全没问题啊！至于全速工作只能两到三个小时之类的……谁没事儿在不能充电的地方不带充电宝玩这种游戏啊？再说运行游戏也不是每时每刻都全速运行啊！如果一个消费者玩玩普通游戏，可以说整体电力续航时间保持6个小时甚至8个小时没问题！如果待机的话靠着0.2瓦的耗电量以及屏幕关闭的话，更是搞不好放20天都没什么问题！

How good is this?Even if such a PU is relatively large, even about the size of a computer PU, it is not a big problem. Our tablet is bigger than a mobile phone, and the space is also large. If the PU is bigger, it is not a big problem!Even if the above calculations are all theoretical data, these theoretical data alone gave Jia Hongjian the urge to try to make a tablet now, okay?After all, it feels like it can be made immediately, and it feels like it can be realized immediately!
