Chapter 338

Henry then reorganized. All the AI talents of Fairchild Semiconductor Company were transferred to alpha company, and all the original staff of Alpha Company were transferred to Fairchild Semiconductor Company. That is to say, the processor in the future will be designed and produced by Xiantong semiconductor company, while Alpha Company will carry out robot research!

Henry merged Alpha Company into Williams X company, and then faded out of people's sight! The CEO of Xiantong semiconductor is Richard, and all the capital of alpha is transferred to Xiantong semiconductor company. Henry will redefine and inject capital into alpha company!

Henry's action, the outside world also thought that alpha company merged into Fairchild Semiconductor Company!

Many media want to interview, Henry thought about it and asked ABC TV station to come.

Fat water doesn't flow to outsiders

ABC reporter asked, "Mr. Williams, what is your purpose of acquiring Fairchild Semiconductor?"

"Reappear the glory of Fairchild Semiconductor in the past!" Henry said solemnly, but there seemed to be a faint taste of forced.

ABC reporter heard this answer, can not help but Leng for a while.

"What about alpha? Is alpha incorporated into Fairchild Semiconductor and become a subsidiary of Fairchild Semiconductor? Will alpha be used in the future? " ABC reporter asked several questions in a row.

Henry laughed and replied, "first of all, alpha is not incorporated into Fairchild Semiconductor. You can think of the two companies as independent companies without direct connection. However, the alpha brand will still be used, and alpha will license the brand name to Fairchild Semiconductor, "said Henry Leighton." the name of our next new processor is called "alpha power."

"Mr. Williams, as we all know, AMD and Intel were founded by the" eight rebels "who came out of Fairchild Semiconductor. So, do you have any other intention in your acquisition of Fairchild Semiconductor? "

"Ha ha, how to say it?" Henry couldn't help laughing. "Well, that's a little bit. Compared with AMD and Intel, Fairchild Semiconductor naturally has higher seniority! "

“……”

That night, a video of Henry's interview on ABC was broadcast.

After reading it, netizens began to talk about it.

"Mr. Henry Williams seems to like some old companies very much. Last time it was Atari, this time it was Fairchild Semiconductor!"

"Henry Williams is a wonderful genius. He bought Atari, which is now the hottest game console. He bought Xiantong semiconductor company. I can predict that Xiantong semiconductor company will surpass Intel company and become the largest semiconductor company in the world! "

Some older netizens sighed: "I miss the original Fairchild Semiconductor Company. At its peak, it was much stronger than Intel now. Most of the talents in Silicon Valley were trained there!"

“……”

Intel.

"Henry Williams must have bought Fairchild Semiconductor on purpose! By doing so, he can take advantage of us in publicity. For example, "Intel company is from Fairchild Semiconductor Company" and "AMD company is from Fairchild Semiconductor Company". Do you feel uncomfortable listening to these words? "

"That's the truth. We can't argue, and we don't have to. As long as the products are well done, Intel's position in the semiconductor field will remain unchanged with its reputation! "

"Yes, that's right!"

In a beautiful Gran town 40 miles west of San Jose, Henry bought a relatively wide factory with about 150000 square meters for alpha company as its headquarters. There, they will be engaged in robot research. At present, there are only over 500 people in alpha company, and Henry plans to expand the number. On the one hand, it recruits employees from the outside world, on the other hand, it directly acquires a robot company.

What kind of robot company to buy is worth studying.

In Henry's mind, the robot company that Google acquired in the previous life suddenly came out of his mind - Boston power.

Boston power was founded in 1992 by Leibert, a member of the National Academy of engineering. Since its establishment, Boston power has started research on bionic robots, and the company has been cooperating with DARPA, the U.S. Army, the Navy and the Marine Corps, and has received funding from DARPA to produce many shocking achievements, And the most important use of these robots is military applications.

Henry saw the video released by Google, and felt that Boston power company was absolutely awesome. It produced big dog, small dog, PETMAN, rhex and atlas. After watching the video, he called "Skynet plan"!!!

So, for such a powerful company, Henry can't wait to buy it.

In fact, Henry also has a company that started the research of robots very early. Nicholas express company has a department called "Nicholas robots", which is mainly engaged in the development of warehouse robots. However, the warehouse robot is completely different from the robot studied by Boston Dynamics. Boston Dynamics researches bionic robots, which belong to multi legged robots, while Nicholas robots researches biped robots, which use wheels to move.

Obviously, Boston power's research is more difficult. But it's not that Nicholas robots can't do it. In Henry's view, it's easier to commercialize the biped robots. The development of multi legged robot is very difficult, I am afraid that it will not be effective for a long time. How to stand and walk, but also maintain stability, which needs to solve many problems.

There are many technical interlinkages between the development of robots, unmanned aircraft and unmanned vehicles. The development of robots can accumulate technology, and once the technology is mature, the development of unmanned aircraft and unmanned vehicles will be natural.

Henry asked people to buy Boston Dynamics and transferred Nicholas robots to alpha.

Technology concentration, strength concentration, brainstorming, in order to develop faster!

Nicholas robots has been able to make a robot to transport goods, but the accuracy is still poor, often failure, not very practical, still need to be studied!

Boston dynamics was surprised when it suddenly received an offer from Henry Williams. In fact, the development of robots, especially bionic multi legged robots, is still used for military robots, and now there is no money at all. Boston Dynamics has always been supported by the military, otherwise, the company would have been finished. Leibert and others like to develop bionic robots for their dreams. Making money is only the second. Therefore, in the face of Henry's acquisition and commitment to invest a large amount of money in R & D, they agreed decisively.

Henry then spent only $100 million to complete a wholly-owned acquisition of Boston power company. After that, Boston power company was merged into Alpha Company, and its previous name was cancelled. Five days later, Boston power transferred all its personnel and equipment to alpha.

Nicholas robots moved faster, and they started moving the day after Henry gave the order. Similarly, after Nicholas robots was incorporated into alpha, the name of the former company was cancelled and the alpha brand was used uniformly!

Robot, terminator, Skynet project!

Henry shook his head. Whatever

Five o'clock today, tomorrow
