Chapter 100 The Decline of Giants
With the finalization of the first aircraft, the research direction of the master company began to be determined, and it entered the high-speed channel. At least with a full set of civilian technology, the master company did not need to conduct a lot of research before producing ordinary jet aircraft. .
In fact, the difference between civilian technology and military technology is not very big. Taking airplanes as an example, a huge passenger plane can be modified into a transport plane—used in national defense!It's just that some functions need to be modified.And such a modification is not difficult for an airliner production company!The technical content of a huge airliner is not necessarily much less than that of a fighter jet!
For the master company, the most difficult thing is actually the cultivation of grassroots personnel. Now, with the first aircraft taking shape, grassroots workers have also begun to grow rapidly.
A thriving master company is like a gold-absorbing machine. Whether it is chipsets, software or special materials, it can bring profits far beyond gold mines for master companies.Of course, when a master company rises, it is inevitable to infringe upon the interests of other companies and countries!
The market is so big, if you start a small company, it's fine, you won't be able to take a few bites at all; but the master company is now using its own strength to show that it is not a small company, but a greedy wolf, open its mouth casually, and let the market destroy !
Gordon Monassen, as the CEO of this term of Intel, is now having a headache.The strong rise of master companies has brought a lot of troubles to Intel!
The first is the high-end market. In fact, the high-end market is very narrow. There are very few people who can afford high-end computers and have the need!Especially with the rise of master companies, a large number of core customers who used to be Intel have shifted their positions.For these users, functionality comes first.
However, when it comes to the price, the products of the master company may not match the hardware, but the performance cannot be said.Theoretically, because the chip of the master company uses the magnetic field calculation function, as long as the voltage is sufficient, the computing power can be infinitely improved.Of course, due to the reality of the material, the voltage of the chips exported by the master company is limited to below 36v; the highest voltage of the chips released in China has reached 220v.
As the most direct competitor, Intel has not adopted other means.For example, discrediting the master company-do you think the price that the master company sells is completely rip-off!They only have 2000 Huaxia coins for the same product in China!It is equivalent to only [-] US dollars; but their products abroad have sold millions of dollars!Too bad.
This is a fact, and the master company's reply to this is: love or not!Powerful mess!
In fact, even now that Intel has lowered the price, the core performance of a million-dollar processor is only comparable to that of a master company.But one is the size of a small USB flash drive; the other requires a box the size of a suitcase to be installed, and the judgment is judged.Of course, Intel has not lost all the market through price cuts, etc., but it is undeniable that this situation is already very pessimistic.
As the master company's chips continue to introduce new ones, the pressure on Intel has been increasing.Although the low-end market has huge benefits, once the high-end market is lost, the low-end market cannot support the survival of an international company!What kind of market determines what kind of survival height!
Today, Intel Corporation is having a meeting, a very crucial meeting!
Gordon sat upright, followed by those in sales and production.
"Sit down and report on sales first." Gordon opened his tired eyes, never thinking that Intel would have such a difficult day.
A middle-aged sales director turned on the computer and began to display: "As of the end of March, 3 million low-end and mid-end sales have been completed this year, with an operating income of about 500 billion U.S. dollars. A year-on-year increase of 80%. High-end and mid-to-high-end market sales 1 sets, operating income of 5000 billion US dollars; year-on-year, a year-on-year decrease of 23%!
For this reason, we cut prices by about 14% to maintain some customers. "
Today, Intel has lost almost all of its market in China.Gaoshou Company implements the development strategy of benefiting the people in China. It is estimated that, as the Gaoshou Company said, they do not make any money at all on civilian chips, and rely entirely on foreign blood transfusions.But even so, foreign buyers are still eager to buy chips, and even master companies once reduced their supply.
Listening to the investigation report of the Marketing Strategy Department, Gordon felt even more depressed.
"In the technical department, how is our research going?"
"Executive Officer, I'm sorry. We have completed the upgrade research on the hardware, which is compatible with the chip of the expert company. However, on the core processor, our research still has no progress.
A magnetic field is something you can't see or touch, unlike electricity.In terms of electricity, we can realize calculation by opening and closing circuits; however, in terms of magnetic field, what we can touch now is only one point: the master company uses the wave performance of the magnetic field, and uses the peak and valley calculations.
However, the waves of the magnetic field are fundamentally different from normal physical ripples.The physical ripple is up and down; and the magnetic field ripple is dense and alternate.How to control the confining magnetic field, we don't know anything. "
"Since the supporting hardware has been researched, why can't the chipset be researched? Our Cosway master company paid a full price of [-] million U.S. dollars to find several sets of different products for your laboratory to research! "Gordon got a little angry.
"Executive Officer, this, Gaoshou Company uses chips for calculations, but the output is still electronic signals. Obviously, in order to integrate existing technologies, Gaoshou's chips have conversion functions. Therefore, we It can keep up with the development of the market by upgrading the existing hardware technology.”
"That is to say, now, in the high-end market, we have been reduced to the accessories production of expert companies!!!"
"Although I don't want to say it, I still want to say it! Yes!" The technician's answer made the venue a little dull.Could it be that Intel is going to fall from the high market!
Gordon was silent for a long time before he spoke again: "From the Strategy Department, how is your talk with Chaowei going? Let's gather the strength of the two companies to resist the attack of Gaoshou Company."
"Chaowei agreed to form a strategic partner. But the specific talks are still at a stalemate. We mean Intel as the main body, and Chaowei as the deputy. But obviously the other party disagrees, and even proposes that unless the benefits are shared, otherwise the discussion will be avoided!" The leader of the strategy department rubbed his nose in embarrassment.
"Sharing? Huh, their technology is so far behind ours, why should they share it!" Of course Gordon was also depressed; but that's all.In fact, with the rise of master companies, the former two chip giants are finally in danger!Also starting to think about merging issues now!
