Chapter 292 Domestic X86 Chip Released
Chapter 292 Domestic X86 Chip Released
At the Lin family in Shenzhen City, Lin Yaxian's eldest brother looked at the sea blue SLC in front of him. Although he had never been very interested in cars and only used them as a means of transportation, he couldn't help but take a closer look at it, then got in the driver's seat and drove around on the roads in the community.
After a while, he got out and said, "This car is more advanced than I thought. It's much better than those Mercedes-Benz and BMW. It's also very comfortable to sit in. The seats in our car are really comfortable to sit in."
The eldest brother of the Lin family is interested in this car, but it is not because of how good or advanced it is. On the one hand, the car was manufactured by his brother-in-law Xu Shenxue's company. On the other hand, the supplier of the car's seats is their Lin family's company. Three years ago, Lin's father started a second business and acquired an automobile seat company and developed it into a large company, whose core customer is Hailan Automobile.
Father Lin said, "Not bad, our seat system is quite good. I even built a new laboratory to develop this seat system."
"We have already received orders for our car seats from several domestic manufacturers, and we are also in contact with BMW, hoping to get some orders."
Speaking of the car seat business, Lin's father is also quite proud.
Although the business was started with the support of his son-in-law, the rest was achieved through the hard work of Lin's father himself, especially in product research and development, otherwise it would not have passed the supply chain review of Hailan Automobile.
Hailan Automobile has very high requirements for the supply of various spare parts and will not lower the quality standards just because the supplier is Xu Shenxue's father-in-law. At most, it will provide some additional help and guidance to enable Lin's father's company to meet technical indicators.
It would be even more difficult to win seat orders from other automobile manufacturers in the future, as his company did not have any unique advantages in terms of personal connections compared to other automobile manufacturers. In the end, the company was able to enter this market because of its good product R&D capabilities, good quality control and overall good cost-effectiveness.
Only then will we be able to eventually gain a share of the mid- to high-end car seat market.
For this, Lin's father is quite proud.
Not everyone can successfully start a second business at the age of sixty.
As a seat supplier, Lin's father would purchase a few of each generation of Hailan cars after they were launched on the market. In addition to using them himself, he would also buy a few for other companies under his umbrella to use as company cars.
At the beginning, he drove a Hailan coupe, but the coupe was not suitable for him after all, so he basically threw it in the garage after buying it. So after the Hailan SUV was launched, he changed to another SUV. This car is good, tough and atmospheric enough, and he sometimes drives it when he drives himself.
The current Hailan SLC is a large luxury car, which he thinks is more suitable for him.
Mature, stable, grand, advanced and safe...
Safety is more important. In order to meet the needs of global listing, all Hailan models will undergo various safety tests in major market countries before listing to meet the laws and regulations of each market and obtain listing qualifications.
Hailan's models have achieved very good results in many tests. Among them, the Hailan SEC even scored extremely high in various safety tests at the time, beating a group of other cars. Hailan even shamelessly boasted that it was the safest car in the world.
Safety has always been the core technical indicator that Hailan Automobile pursues most... For this reason, it is even willing to give up some battery life just to make the battery safer.
In order to ensure the safety of the battery, not only the iron phosphate battery with a slightly lower energy density is used, but it is safer and will not burn too violently even if it catches fire... instead of using the ternary lithium battery with a higher energy density but lower safety, and once it catches fire, it will burn very quickly and even explode.
In addition, the self-developed battery structure that pays great attention to safety, the battery safety management system, the battery automatic cooling and fire extinguishing system, and the extremely solid chassis and body, even a violent collision will not cause the internal battery to deform, which will lead to a collision short circuit and fire.
Various safety measures have resulted in the Hailan car having a relatively large weight and being particularly strong.
Especially the SUV model Hailan SEV, which drives like a small tank on the road. Except for the plastic shell in the front to absorb energy and protect pedestrians, the steel body frame inside the car is actually very strong and uses high-strength steel.
If the Hailan SEV collides with an ordinary car at normal speed, the ordinary car will be deformed. Except for the damage to the plastic lights, the internal structure will be fine.
Nothing can happen either. Once the body structure is deformed, the internal battery will catch fire in minutes!
Therefore, in order to be legal and compliant, the body structure of electric vehicles produced by major brands is relatively solid and the bodies are heavier. There is no other way.
Hailan Automobile, on the other hand, is more extreme in this regard and pays a greater price for safety.
This also means that the Hailan car's range, maximum speed and acceleration are actually slightly worse, at least worse than the Tesla next door.
However, HaiLan Automobile did not take it seriously and continued to do so.
Because for a high-end brand like Hailan Automobile, acceleration, maximum speed, and endurance are important, but not as important as safety.
Because everyone is afraid of death, and rich people are even more afraid of death!
If you want rich people to buy your car, put aside other things, but its safety must be good.
Therefore, you rarely see rich people driving small cars. They either drive large SUVs or high-end sedans.
According to statistics from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the death rate among registered owners of small cars and mass-produced high-horsepower sports cars is relatively high.
The high mortality rate among owners of some hatchbacks and compact sedans, especially low-end models, is due to the lack of protective measures for these vehicles, and the mortality rate is relatively high once an accident occurs.
Especially when colliding with larger and heavier vehicles, such as SUVs and mid-to-large sedans.
As for the high mortality rate among owners of high-horsepower sports cars, it is purely because some owners of these vehicles pursue excitement and commit suicide... thereby raising the mortality rate.
Relatively speaking, large SUVs, pickup trucks, and luxury cars have a lower death rate because they have better protection measures and the cars are larger and heavier, which gives them an advantage in collisions.
This is also why large SUVs and pickup trucks are becoming increasingly popular in the US market, because they are safer.
The above refers only to the US market and US car owners, and does not include models and owners in other markets.
After all, Americans are not that idle, and they won't count the lives of car owners in other countries...
Therefore, the first two models of Hailan Automobile are actually in line with the preferences of Americans. Hailan SEC is a coupe model with various technological elements and super fast acceleration, which young people like very much.
The Hailan SEV is a large SUV, which has always been the mainstream model in the United States.
As for the third model, the Sea Blue SLC, it is a large luxury sedan. This car has obvious business attributes and most people will not buy it as a family car, so let’s not talk about it for now.
But its sales in the country are actually pretty good. It received orders for more than a thousand units right after it was launched. Don't underestimate this number, but you have to know that the starting price is more than 800,000 yuan, and after adding automatic assisted driving and other options, the price is over one million yuan. The market capacity for this kind of large luxury car is very small, and it is considered good to have received orders for more than a thousand units right after it was launched.
While the Lin family father and son were experiencing the Hailan SLC, some car owners from different places were also experiencing this large luxury car, which is said to be the most advanced at the moment and is full of high-tech. It was specially built for Hailan Automobile's boss, the world's richest man Xu Shenxue.
The same car as Xu Shenxue is a core promotional point of the Hailan SLC.
However, HaiLan Automobile will naturally not disclose that the HaiLan SLC used by Xu Shenxue as his car is a specially customized version, just like the HaiLan SEV that Xu Shenxue used as his previous car.
It's not just a bulletproof version, all aspects of safety configuration are maxed out. Because it needs to be bulletproof, great emphasis is placed on safety while also requiring weight reduction. Therefore, many materials used are unconventional. Many places that were originally made of steel are now made of titanium alloy because it is stronger and can effectively reduce weight.
Each of these specially customized Sea Blue SEV or Sea Blue SLV costs nearly 20 million yuan, which is more expensive than some armored vehicles.
This vehicle, which was specially customized for Xu Shenxue, is not only different from ordinary mass-produced Hailan cars, but is also very different from the bulletproof version sold to the outside world.
In appearance, it is the same as the mass-produced model, but with some subtle differences.
However, not many people know these differences. What ordinary people can see is that the vehicle Xu Shenxue rides in is either HaiLan SEV or HaiLan SLC.
In early May, not long after the launch of the Hailan SLC, Xu Shenxue left the Zhiyun headquarters park in a black Hailan SLC customized version, accompanied by several other mass-produced Hailan SLCs or Hailan SEVs in the fleet, and then came to Weizhi Technology Co., Ltd. not far away.
The fleet of all-sea blue SLC or sea blue SEV cars was very conspicuous on the streets, attracting a lot of attention.
After the convoy arrived at Weizhi Technology Co., Ltd., Xu Shenxue had just gotten off the car when he saw Ji Chenghe getting off the car behind him with a smile on his face: "Boss Xu, this Hailan SLC bulletproof car is pretty good. Sitting in it makes me feel a lot better. I feel like I have become a high-tech person, not just a mobile phone seller!"
Hearing Ji Chenghe say this, Xu Shenxue laughed and said, "When did you learn to be modest? If you were a mobile phone seller, then I would be even more miserable. I don't understand technology or sales, and I can't even manage a business properly!"
Ji Chenghe laughed: "Come on, we both know nothing about technology, let's go and take a look at the little treasure of Weizhi Technology. I heard that the WZ2000 chip is pretty good."
Today is the day when Wichi Technology holds a new product launch conference. It is expected that Wichi Technology's first consumer-grade X86 chip, the WZ2000 desktop chip and the WZ2000U mobile chip will be released at the conference.
This series of chips is not only the first X86 commercial chip of Vichi Technology, but also the first X86 chip in China that can be used for commercial purposes and keep up with mainstream technology.
It is of great significance!
So although today's press conference was not hosted by Xu Shenxue or Ji Chenghe, but by Zhao Wangge from Weichi Technology, the two of them still came.
Not only did they come, but a large number of executives from various companies in the technology industry, especially senior executives from PC manufacturers and media from the technology industry also came.
The first domestically produced commercial X86 CPU is of great significance.
This means that the country's huge X86 computer ecosystem has finally achieved independent control of hardware. Even if it is impossible to import chips from Intel or AMD, Weichi Technology can still provide advanced X86 chips.
And the most important thing is that behind Weichi Technology is Zhiyun Group. They are not using X86 chips that are just for backup, but the most advanced technology at present, X86 chips that can compete commercially.
The meaning is different.
Especially according to some information disclosed by Wichi Technology in advance, this WZ2000 chip is worth looking forward to.
As an entry-level chip, it uses Zhiyun Microelectronics' top-level 28NLP process. The 28NLP process in Zhiyun Microelectronics is one of the top mass production processes currently available.
Except for Intel's 28nm process which can surpass it, who else dares to say that it is more advanced than Zhiyun Microelectronics' NLP process?
As for TSMC’s 20-nanometer process… it’s the same as Zhiyun Microelectronics’ 18-nanometer process. It’s hyped up a lot, but it’s not yet in mass production!
This advanced technology alone, coupled with the title of the first domestically produced commercial X86 chip and the four words "independent and controllable", is worthy of the attention of many people.
So not many ordinary people knew about today's press conference before, but many people in the computer industry knew about it.
At the same time, many computer manufacturers are somewhat envious of Tongfang Technology, because this time, Wichi Technology will not only release the first domestically produced commercial chip, but also directly introduce the new generation of Tianfang series computers launched by Tongfang Technology at the press conference in order to demonstrate the performance of WZ2000 and WZ2000U, including desktops and notebooks.
This is like holding on to a super thigh!
After today's press conference, I'm afraid that Tongfang Technology's Tianfang series of computers will spread across the entire Chinese Internet and become a truly household computer brand.
It’s not because of how powerful Tongfang Technology is, or even because it’s the first domestically produced commercial X86 chip, but because of the Zhiyun Group behind it!
Only an enterprise like Zhiyun Group, which has top strength and reputation, can make a product quickly become a hot topic of discussion among the public after its release.
Moreover, Zhiyun Group doesn’t even need to conduct any additional large-scale publicity. A large number of media outlets, including mainstream media, online media, and the huge number of self-media that have emerged in the past two years will not miss the opportunity to ride on the popularity and will all rush in to make various reports!
These media need Zhiyun's influence to attract traffic, so as to obtain more traffic and greater commercial value.
Zhiyun Group also saved a lot of advertising costs.
It's something that has benefits for both.
Of course, only a company with the strength and influence of Zhiyun Group can do this.
Other companies have little influence, so there won’t be so many media outlets that would proactively pay for them and rush to report relevant information.
After all, when Zhiyun releases a new product, that is news, it has news value and can drive traffic to media platforms or self-media.
When other companies release new products, it is advertising... the media needs to use their own influence and traffic to divert traffic to the company's products and gain attention. In this case, the company has to pay money before the media will report on you, just like when Zhiyun first released the C1 mobile phone a few years ago.
It is worth noting that although Zhiyun Group's annual marketing expenses are quite high, reaching the level of 20 to 30 billion US dollars, it is mainly used for product placement in film and television dramas, billboard production, flyers, posters, shooting of promotional videos, sponsorship of public welfare undertakings, and some online advertising after product launch, such as APP splash screen advertising to attract traffic.
These two or three billion dollars may seem like a lot, but compared to the huge size of Zhiyun Group and the huge sales volume of its products, they are actually insignificant.
This is also a common feature of high-tech giants, that is, the total amount of marketing expenses is large, but the proportion is extremely low. This is the case with Fruit, Six Star and Zhiyun.
How to describe this uniqueness...Now Weiku Electronics' annual investment in marketing expenses is more than that of Zhiyun Group.
With such a big brand as Zhiyun, the WZ2000 chip released today is bound to become extremely hot news, directly rushing to the top of the hot search list, or even ranking first.
Especially on the domestic Internet, it will definitely become the most sensational news today.
Under such circumstances, Tongfang Technology, which is taking advantage of this opportunity, will inevitably usher in a new round of development.
This made other computer manufacturers very envious.
————
Xu Shenxue and Ji Chenghe got off the car after arriving, and then took a group of people to the small conference room on the top floor of the Weichi Technology office building.
After having a brief chat with Zhao Wangge and a few other core managers and technical staff of Weichi Technology, they went downstairs to the conference center in the building as the press conference was about to begin.
After arriving at the conference center, many people saw Xu Shenxue and looked over one by one. Some corporate executives or CEOs who claimed to have sufficient status came over to greet him and said some nice words.
"Mr. Xu, congratulations! Today, Zhiyun is going to fill another gap in the country!"
"Mr. Xu has achieved such results at such a young age. It really makes us ashamed!"
"There are not many entrepreneurs in China who care about their country like Mr. Xu."
"Yes, in order to break the foreign monopoly on X86, President Xu forcibly acquired VIA's X86 business, and then invested heavily just to obtain domestic X86 chips and solve the security problems of the domestic X86 ecosystem. Such sentiments make me admire them very much!"
But after saying the nice things, they began to shamelessly look for various cooperation opportunities to get orders.
"Mr. Xu, we are also a world-class computer brand manufacturer. We can cooperate in the future. We are also very interested in domestic X86 computers."
"Mr. Xu, our company is quite good in the field of large-size screens, and is not worse than other companies. Moreover, we have developed some new technologies this year, which not only improve the quality, but also reduce the price a lot."
"Mr. Xu, I've heard that you like tea. I'll visit you later with some tea!" Xu Shenxue didn't have any bad feelings towards those people who took every opportunity to sell their products... They tried to seize every opportunity to develop their business, and this mentality was worthy of admiration.
As for being thick-skinned and stuff, haha, it's much better to say a few nice words with a thick face and then try to get orders than to drink several kilograms of liquor.
Besides, it’s not shameful to say a few nice words to a big shot of Xu Shenxue’s level and then humbly try to get orders.
Among domestic private entrepreneurs, whoever meets Xu Shenxue has to automatically bow down to him... Whether it's money, company size, world reputation, or even employment and tax contributions to society, who among private entrepreneurs dares to say that they do better than Xu Shenxue?
No one's.
Xu Shenxue smiled at all these people and gave them a few simple answers. Although these people seemed to be trying to please him, they were actually CEOs or executives of large and influential companies and were also members of the wealthy circle.
Furthermore, in these public occasions, Xu Shenxue usually does not put on airs and always looks quite friendly... There are a bunch of cameras nearby, and the cameras are pointed at him, with their flashes lighting up from time to time.
It’s not okay to be unfriendly!
After simply dealing with this group of people, Xu Shenxue continued to move forward, while the assistant of Manager Dong who was following behind him paused for a moment, then began to accept the business cards of the corporate executives or CEOs present and gave them their contact numbers.
One CEO even asked: "Mr. Xu has WeChat, right? Can I add him?"
The assistant immediately took out an S13 Pro and said, "Yes, come on, you can add one. All the bosses can also add one. We can form a group later!"
After hearing this, many people showed joy: "Come on, let me add one too. I am Xu Shenong, the CEO of Jinglong Technology. Our company makes PC peripherals."
The assistant added it immediately and also added a note.
Xu Shenong from Jinglong Technology looked at the WeChat message that came in and saw that it was Xu Shenxue's avatar, and his name was also Xu Shenxue. He also took a quick look at the circle of friends, and there were not many people, all of which were some forwarded public Zhiyun press releases.
Later, other people also added it. During the whole process, no one asked even a question whether this was Xu Shenxue’s personal mobile phone number or personal WeChat... No one knew without asking. This must be for public use only. It couldn’t be a personal mobile phone number.
Not everyone can get the personal contact information of someone like Xu Shenxue. Even if someone gives him the so-called personal contact information, such as mobile phone number and WeChat, it is likely to be kept in the hands of Dong Jingban's assistant.
Xu Shenxue's personal cell phone is only accessible to his family, core executives of his companies, a few assistants who follow him every day, a few CEOs of major cooperating companies, and some special bigwigs.
Except for special groups such as family members and assistant drivers, outsiders cannot get Xu Shenxue's personal mobile phone number unless they have a certain status, and even if they get it, it will be useless.
Because Xu Shenxue's personal mobile phone is set up as a whitelist, only numbers on the whitelist can call in...numbers not on the whitelist cannot call in.
In fact, the so-called private number of Xu Shenxue that many people got was actually the private mobile phones that his accompanying assistants were responsible for answering and managing. There were many of them... several of them, used to contact people in different groups.
If these people want to contact Xu Shenxue, they have to go through his assistants first and then they can contact Xu Shenxue.
Because if there is no restriction, Xu Shenxue's phone will ring from morning to the next morning... there will be endless calls.
The entrepreneurs present at the event were basically aware of these things... They were all old hands who had been in the business world for many years, so they naturally knew these things. Some of them even did the same themselves, and would not easily leak their private phone numbers.
Xu Shenxue, who was in the front, got rid of a group of over-enthusiastic entrepreneurs and sat in the first row of the audience with Ji Chenghe and several other executives of the company, waiting for the product launch conference to begin.
After many other invited industry insiders, representatives of cooperative enterprises, and media personnel took their seats, the press conference started on time.
Zhao Wangge, as the CEO of Weichi Technology, came on stage and began to host the press conference.
"As we all know, the current Internet system and even the entire modern society are built on computers."
"Computers not only allow people to connect to the Internet, but can also serve as office equipment to improve people's office efficiency and are used in all walks of life!"
"Computers are so important to us that our lives and production cannot be separated from them!"
"And the most core device in a computer is the CPU."
"In every corner of society, a large number of CPUs maintain the operation of various computer terminals, and then build the Internet and even all walks of life. From finance to transportation to factories, they can be seen in almost every corner."
"It is so important that modern society cannot do without it. We can hardly imagine what modern society would be like without the CPU, but no matter what, it would be a disaster!"
"And this is also the meaning of our existence at Vichi Technology, to research and develop CPUs to maintain the operation of the modern social system and to provide computers with chips."
As Zhao Wangge was speaking, the large screen behind him started to display some pictures, introducing some information about computers and CPUs.
"We at Zhiyun have been working in the CPU field for many years. Starting from the early mobile S100 chip, we have achieved great success in the mobile CPU field and have accumulated rich experience and technology!"
"So far, our Zhiyun's S series chips and W series chips have become the world's top chips, and the CPU cores they contain have top performance."
"We also launched the P series chips with our own SOP instruction set, which have been used in Pangu computers."
"But this is not enough. We are still missing a CPU, which is the CPU in the X86 ecosystem."
"In the modern computer field, almost all computers, including servers, are composed of CPUs under the X86 architecture, but we don't have such a CPU!"
"Can our Zhiyun be absent from such an important field?"
"Of course not!"
"So under the leadership of Mr. Xu, we solved the X86 patent issues and then designed and developed our own X86 chip."
"And in March of this year, it was successfully taped out. After a series of tests, the performance of this chip has reached the world-class level!"
"And this is the WZ2000 we are talking about today. It adopts our self-developed Shenlong architecture design and uses the current top-level 28NLP process to manufacture the dual-core multi-threaded CPU."
"As an entry-level product, this chip has amazing performance. It has two powerful cores, the highest main frequency can reach 3.5GHZ, and supports four threads."
“还拥有超大的3MB的L3缓存,支持双通道DDR3 1600内存,支持最大32GB内存。”
"And most importantly, we adopted a 64-bit design from the beginning, so it supports a range of 64-bit systems and software."
"It is equipped with a new generation OP300 graphics processing core that is very mature and reliable and has a very strong support for large-scale graphics processing and other professional software. The maximum frequency of the CPU reaches 1GHZ!"
"While having the above powerful performance, thanks to our use of low-power technology, the power consumption of the chip is only 60 watts."
"At the same time, as an entry-level product, the 2010 model in this chip only costs yuan, which is good value for money!"
"Next are some tests we ran on our chip!"
"In terms of multi-threaded operation, our WZ2000 chip has great advantages in supporting multi-tasking operation because it has our group's exclusive super multi-threaded technology, dynamic main frequency technology and other advanced technologies."
As he finished speaking, a test score comparison chart appeared on the big screen behind him.
The CPUs for comparison are entry-level CPUs of the same level from Intel and AMD... After all, WZ2000 is just an entry-level CPU, priced at only yuan, so it is naturally impossible to compare it with CPUs that cost yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan.
The only objects of comparison are other entry-level CPUs, including Intel's I3, Pentium Dual-core, and AMD's dual-core and quad-core series.
Even when making comparisons, some of the higher-performance models of the fourth generation of Intel I3 were deliberately removed...
After all, the press conference is just an advertising meeting, and the performance comparison charts released need to highlight their own products, but they cannot be faked, otherwise the negative impact will be too great if they are exposed.
So what is the best way? On the one hand, it is Tian Ji's horse racing, and on the other hand, it is to ignore some opponents that you cannot beat.
The WZ2000 chip developed by Wichita Technology is just an entry-level chip. In terms of performance alone, it is between the second-generation I3 and the third-generation I3. Intel and AMD have a lot of chips with better performance, and even the older generation chips can beat it.
For example, the old second-generation I5 and even the Q2 in the Core 9700 Quad series in the nm era can outperform it.
Therefore, some of the comparative tests released by Weichi Technology today are only compared with some mainstream CPUs.
So people saw that the WZ2000 chip seemed to be quite good.
In the Fritz Chess 4.3 benchmark, which is used to test multi-threaded computing, the WZ2040's score exceeded that of the third-generation I3 and is almost the same as the fourth-generation I3... and also exceeded AMD's similar competitors.
But what was not mentioned at the press conference was that there are actually many software programs for testing multi-threaded computing, such as wPrime. However, in this test software, the performance of WZ2000 was relatively average, so there was no running score comparison in this test software at the press conference.
The benchmark tests at the press conference all choose the parts that are beneficial to them and then release them for publicity. You can't let other manufacturers' CPUs beat your own products at your own press conference.
The same was true for the subsequent physical calculation test. The press conference did not choose the new version of 3DMark for the physical calculation test, but specially selected the old version of 3DMark for the test... because the WZ2000 chip performed better in the running test of Boss 3DMark. Although it was slightly worse than the third-generation I3, it was only a little bit, and there was no obvious difference.
Then there are the comparison charts of compression file test and image processing test. The performance of WZ2000 is very good... at least it seems to beat the second-generation I3, and is on par with the third-generation I3, and occasionally even exceeds it.
Especially in the area of image processing, it has always been the strong point of Zhiyun chips, and the WZ2000 is no exception. Its performance is far ahead of Intel and AMD's competing products. This means that the WZ2000 CPU is more suitable for office areas that need to process images.
For example, in the comparative test of PhotoShop CC, WZ2000 relied on its inherent ability to better process images, and the test time for performing the same operation on the same image (the faster the better) was only seconds.
The 3 in the fourth generation I4050 takes 5 seconds, the 4590 in the fourth generation I7 takes only 4790 seconds, and the K in the fourth generation I takes seconds.
The new Pentium dual-core chip takes 110 seconds.
The FX8300 in the AMD camp takes seconds, and the others take more than seconds, even the so-called high-end chips.
The data from this comparative test was also highly praised by Zhao Wangge on the stage. He boasted about the core architecture of his own WZ2000 chip, that is, the superiority of the Shenlong architecture, saying that this is the current top-level CPU core architecture that is ahead of its time and can beat its peers.
This has indeed given Wichita Technology an advantage as a latecomer. While others are using old architectures, Wichita Technology has no baggage and can develop a top-level 64-bit architecture that keeps up with the technological trends right from the start, allowing it to design to its heart's content.
The following 3D rendering and video conversion tests are also the strengths of the WZ2000 chip, or the Shenlong architecture, so they are highly praised.
From this series of comparative tests, especially Zhao Wangge's emphasis, we can actually see the advantages and disadvantages of this WZ2000 chip compared with Intel and AMD.
The advantages are more advanced architecture and lower power consumption, and it performs very well in image processing in the design and office fields, including video conversion and audio conversion.
However, the gaming performance of the integrated graphics card is very ordinary, ranking at the bottom of the two...
There is no way, the OP graphics processing core architecture is not suitable for playing large-scale 3D action games, so the game support performance is very limited. Zhiyun's OP graphics processing core architecture is better at supporting large-scale office software, especially various video processing software, image processing software and 3D design software.
But, no one uses integrated graphics to play games!
Therefore, the game tests at the press conference were directly conducted using NVIDIA's independent graphics cards in combination with various CPUs, and the scores were basically the same. After all, these large-scale 3A games depend on the graphics card's performance, and the CPU has a relatively smaller impact. Therefore, the final test results are very interesting: they are all about the same!
Then at the press conference, it is easy to give people a misunderstanding that Wistron's chips are also suitable for playing games, at least at the same level as Intel and AMD.
Of course, Zhao Wangge would not say much about this kind of selective publicity. On the contrary, he repeatedly emphasized in the press conference the advantages of his own chips in the office field, especially in image processing and audio processing.
After various comparative tests, in the words of Zhao Wangge, our WZ2000 chip is very powerful, it is a powerful chip of the same level as I3, and it is even more powerful in the office field... As for which generation of I3 it is, I won’t go into details.
After Zhao Wangge introduced the desktop version of WZ2000, he also introduced the mobile version of WZ2000U, which is a low-voltage version for laptops.
This time, the focus is still on supporting the office field with integrated graphics and low power consumption.
The WZ2000U chip uses the 28NLP process, which is a low-power -nanometer process. Although its power consumption control is not as good as Intel's -nanometer process, it is worse than AMD products that still use the conventional -nanometer process.
Coupled with its relatively cheap price, this WZ2000U chip is still competitive in the market.
After introducing the chips, Lord Zhao stepped down, followed by people from Tongfang Technology who came up to introduce their Tianfang series of computers, including desktops and notebooks.
Of course, introducing the computer is one aspect, but the focus is still on the WZ2000 chip, which mainly reflects the various advantages brought by the WZ2000 chip, not just that the computer itself is good.
They also demonstrated a large-scale 3A game on site using a Tianfang Computer desktop... In order to achieve a good demonstration effect, this desktop was actually equipped with a high-end NVIDIA graphics card. The price of this graphics card alone exceeded the total price of all other components of the console.
When the representative of Tongfang Technology was introducing computers on the stage, Xu Shenxue and Ji Chenghe were watching from the audience.
Ji Chenghe said, "This Tianfang Computer laptop is pretty good. It's good enough as an entry-level laptop!"
"A desktop computer is fine, but the high-end graphics card is a bit redundant. I can get a batch of integrated graphics cards instead of independent graphics cards to use as office computers. Not every position in the company requires a high-performance computer. Many positions can just use an ordinary desktop computer."
Xu Shenxue said: "You can discuss these matters with the logistics department later."
The purpose of finding Tongfang Technology to develop a co-branded computer was to meet the group's own computer purchasing needs, and also to promote X86 chips and other corresponding chipsets and other products.
Zhiyun Group does not sell ordinary computers. Instead, it sells a variety of chips, including CPUs and chipsets, and then graphics cards, memory, and flash memory...
In essence, we are in the semiconductor business, not the computer business.
This is also the development direction that Zhiyun Group has been vigorously promoting recently, that is, while paying attention to various types of smart terminals, it has begun to strengthen its layout and market development in the semiconductor field.
