Chapter 1018

Let's talk about the development history of CPU dual core.

As early as many years ago, IBM introduced dual core CPU.

However, the dual core CPU launched by IBM at that time was too expensive for ordinary people to afford.

And at that time, such a CPU was server oriented, and ordinary people couldn't use it.

So by 2006, there was not much news and information about dual core processors on the market.

However, as the overlord of the processor, Intel's release of dual core processor is earth shattering.

This news not only shocked the whole industry, but also shocked Chen Yu.

What shocked Chen Yu was not dual core.

With decades of vision in previous life, let alone dual core, four core, eight core, 32 core... Chen Yu has experienced it.

What makes Chen Yu feel wrong is the impact of Intel dual core on Vista.

After all, why did Vista fail.

In addition to a series of incompatibilities, the same hardware is also a reason that can not be ignored.

It can even be said that he is one of the most important reasons.

If all computers are dual core by this time, will Vista still be unable to push out?

Chen Yu can't answer this question.

But he has a hunch that if Intel and Microsoft reach close cooperation in hardware, Vista may not fail.

This gave Chen Yu a great danger signal.

As a party, facing the sudden emergence of dual core, Chen Yu is a little uneasy.

"Brother Jian, call the president, Kaifu, Zhang Rujing, he Tingbo, Lin Benhan... All to the headquarters."

Aware of the seriousness of the problem, Chen Yu immediately told Zhang Jianming.

Intel's dual core processor affects not only vista, but also Huanyu technology's processor business and semiconductor OEM business.

At the first time, Chen Yu called all the persons in charge of the semiconductor business of Huanyu technology.

"Tingbo, you are responsible for chip design. Is it difficult for dual core processor?"

"It's not difficult in theory. It's just to integrate two computing cores on one processor."

"How much does he promote the main frequency?"

"Very big."

He Tingbo explained: "with the development of chip technology, in fact, some have reached the bottle shank. This has something to do with the chip process. At present, the mainstream lithography machines in the world can not achieve the process below 60 nm."

Speaking of this, Chen Yu looked at Lin Benhan.

Lin Benhan also said: "Mr. Chen, our wet lithography technology is under full development, and there have been some breakthroughs. If everything is normal, our wet lithography process can break through the 60 nm process, or even below 10 nm. However, for the time being, our process is still under research, and I expect it will take one to two years before our wet lithography process can be fully mature 。”

With that, Lin Benhan continued: "in the chip manufacturing process, Intel can not exceed 60 nm, so Intel can only adopt the way of dual core processor to improve the main frequency. However, it still depends on the market acceptance."

"Payment, you have been at Microsoft. Do you think Microsoft Vista and Intel's dual core processor have reached a strategic agreement this time?"

"Mr. Chen, Microsoft and Intel have always been strategic partners, and they are the most solid strategic partners in the world. They deeply know that both glory and loss will be lost. Therefore, Intel will definitely help when vista is released. I think this dual core processor has a great impetus to improve the performance of Vista."

When Li Kaifu finished, Zhang Rujing, who was in charge of the center international, also said: "Intel's dual core processor may be handed over to TSMC for OEM this time. If the promotion of dual core processor is successful, we will lag behind them for another generation in OEM technology."

Zhang Rujing's words are extremely heavy.

Originally, the International Center was 2-3 generations behind TSMC. It is very difficult to catch up with and surpass TSMC.

This time, the dual core burst out, another generation behind, to catch up with TSMC, I really don't know.

"In fact, we don't have to be discouraged. Compared with the time when we had nothing, it has opened a good situation for the first time."

Dean Li Biqing said with a smile when he saw that the atmosphere was wrong.

"The dean is right. I just talked nonsense."

Zhang Rujing apologized and said, "Mr. Chen, you can rest assured that no matter how far away we are from TSMC, we will never give up."

"So are we."

He Tingbo and Lin Benhan nodded one after another.

"OK."

A group of responsible persons expressed their opinions, and Chen Yu also had a bottom: "high-rise buildings can not be built in one day. As long as we work together, we can do nothing. However, Intel's dual core processor is really a trouble. Do you have any solutions? For example, prevent the launch of Intel's dual core processor."

The people were stunned at this statement.

"Prevent the introduction of Intel dual core processors?"

"How is this possible?"

Several responsible persons looked at each other and shook their heads.

The processor is developed by Intel. Can you stop them from publishing?

However, Zhang Jianming does not think so: "I think there are still some ways."

"Oh, brother Jian, what can you do?"

"Some measures should be taken on the domestic side."

Zhang Jianming thought for a moment and said: "If Intel wants to launch its dual core processor, it needs the support of many computer manufacturers. Huanyu technology already has Huanyu, Shenzhou, Tsinghua Tongfang, founder... And other brands in the domestic PC, while maintaining cooperation with Acer. At the critical moment, the top may also exert pressure on Lenovo. However, in the foreign market, we don't think we can do anything."

As the general manager of Huanyu technology, Zhang Jianming's ability to coordinate the overall situation is becoming stronger and stronger.

Chen Yu is also very pleased with this.

"Brother Jian, it's good. It's comprehensive enough."

Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, don't laugh at me. However, it's not safe at all. Although we can take certain measures in China, it also depends on the acceptance of dual core processors in the market. If the market is fully opened and dual core processors are fully accepted, we can't even accept them."

The world is one, not if you don't want to accept it.

For example, for a series of computer brands controlled by Huanyu technology, if a series of other computers are equipped with dual core processors, you have not installed them.

How will consumers choose?

Even if you don't want to use Intel's dual core processor, you're forced to use it.

If you just don't want to use it, you can't stop the promotion of Intel dual core processor, but also scrap your computer business.

So sometimes, why did a series of domestic mobile phone enterprises use American chips in their previous lives.

No, they don't want to use domestic chips.

One is that there are no chips in China, and the other, even if there are, does not have their advanced technology.

As for Huawei's chips, they can only be used by themselves.

What do you want them to do at this time?

Does the dead bar use garbage chips?

It seems to have backbone, but at the same time, your mobile phone brand disappears in the eyes of the public.

It's more than that.

What makes you more disgusting is that if you disappear, foreign brands will be robbed by Chinese people again.

At that time, you will see that all mobile phones in the country are the time for foreign brands to unify the Jianghu.

"Brother Jian, what you said is wrong."

Although Chen Yu can't stop Intel from releasing chips, some other actions are OK.

For example.

Chen Yu said: "what does market acceptance depend on? Generally speaking, it depends on sales. What does it depend on when it is just promoted in the early stage? Product performance? This is one reason, but I think it depends more on the publicity and promotion of public opinion. If we strangle Intel's dual core in public opinion, will consumers still be interested in dual core processors?"

But when they said this, they remembered it.

In terms of public opinion, Huanyu technology also has a huge market share abroad.

Friends network, Huanyu video... These two are famous positions of public opinion.

Although they are not sure whether Huanyu technology can completely suppress Intel's dual core in public opinion.

But it doesn't matter.

As long as their dual core processors are popularized a year or two later, this is another situation.
