Chapter 784: A Local Tyrant Is a Local Tyrant (Three Watches, Ask for Subscription)
Jerry Sanders almost didn't suffocate an internal injury.
Once upon a time, AMD struggled. After all, at the beginning of its establishment, whether it was Intel or AMD, in fact, the main employees of the predecessor came from the once prosperous Fairchild Semiconductor Company.
It was only later that Fairchild Semiconductor collapsed, so there was Intel and later AMD. It's just that when AMD's side was founded, Intel was already very powerful.
One of the founders of Intel, Gordon Moore was born in Fairchild Semiconductor. Later, he founded Intel and quickly took over the personal CPU market. Defeated a series of opponents such as IBM, Motorola, etc.
In the personal computer chip market, Dugu seeks defeat.
AMD wants to challenge such a giant, which is undoubtedly difficult. At the beginning, Jerry Sanders worked hard and went through a lot of hard work in order to raise funds. It's not much different from Tang Seng learning scriptures.
There was once a Wall Street guy who canceled how difficult Jerry Sanders was to raise money, saying: Intel wants to raise $5 million, and it only takes 5 minutes. And Jerry Sanders wants to raise $50,000 for AMD, which takes 5 million minutes.
Obviously, this is an exaggeration. However, it has to be said that this also aptly illustrates how difficult Jerry Sanders was to raise funds in the first place. It was only later, after being favored by the Abu Dhabi ATIC consortium, that it passed the difficult period of financing.
But the other party's style of local tyrant really makes people feel a little aggrieved.
But there is no way, people are the owners of money, so you have to endure it.
"We want to borrow a billion dollars!" Jerry Sanders said helplessly.
"A billion dollars! Loans! In other words, there are still so many shares, but I lend you money for nothing. So what's in it for me?" asked the Abu Dhabi tycoon.
Jerry Sanders has no words to describe the anger in his heart at this moment.
It's a dirt bun.
But people have money!
"That way, if our company grows, the shares invested by your consortium will be more valuable. "If we don't continue to invest, then we may not be able to survive this wave of market chaos!"
"Then why not financing, but borrowing?" asked the Abu Dhabi tycoon.
Jerry Sanders was silent. If he wants to raise money again, who will the company belong? At that time, the company will completely change. Then, I'm afraid it's no longer AMD.
"Okay, okay, don't bother with it, I know, don't you just want the management of the company. Okay, isn't it just a billion dollars! I'll lend it to you. However, I have one condition. That is, the next generation of processors, I must name them! If you agree, you will borrow money, and if you don't agree, you will not talk about it!" The Abu Dhabi tycoon said impatiently, "Just invest the little money in your company, and if you lose it, you will be a few more horses, and you will die of illness!"
These words are undoubtedly very heart-wrenching. Rao Jerry Sanders went through eighty-one difficulties to withdraw the gold, but he almost couldn't hold back.
However, after a few deep breaths, the anger in his heart was calmed.
"Yes!" Jerry Sanders asked patiently, "I don't know what you want to name it for?"
"Well, I like dinosaurs the most, they're powerful and powerful, but I don't like Tyrannosaurus rex, I like athlox. That's it, let's call it Athlon!" said the Abu Dhabi tycoon.
Jerry Sanders let out a long breath.
The name doesn't seem too bad. If you choose to name it Tyrannosaurus rex, or long-necked dragon, it will be embarrassing. That's a really bad name.
Athlon, not bad! After all, it has something to do with speed. And CPU, the important thing is speed.
Jerry Sanders, who managed to get a $1 billion loan, returned to the company.
"Now that we have the funds, I'm asking for a brand new CPU, the K7, No, Athlon, and the K6-3, at the beginning of next year. Jerry Sanders said.
With the injection of funds, the entire AMD has once again rejuvenated its endless fighting spirit.
"We're not going to throw in the towel!"
"Intel!" everyone yelled.
Doing it to Intel has always been their purpose. If they don't get down to Intel, they won't give up.
The CPU market is undercurrent. All of this will not be decided until the turn of the year.
No one would have thought that next year would be the first year of the three-kingdom war in the CPU market in the future. Starting next year, the most exciting Romance of the Three Kingdoms in CPU history will officially kick off.
For now, it's just the calm before the storm.
"I'm tired!" In the courtyard, Yi Hannuo massaged Qin Feng's shoulders.
"Oh, yes. There's too much here!" Qin Feng sighed.
This world, running around, is really tired.
"Qin Feng, I've actually wanted to ask you all along, I said, don't be angry!" Yi Hannuo asked timidly.
"Well, Nuno, just ask!" Qin Feng grinned and touched Yi Hannuo's hand.
It's slippery, so uncomfortable.
Iranor blushed slightly.
"Actually, we're already very rich. You see, I have the spice that I worked with Shinji Ono, which brings in millions of dollars every year, and I also have the apartment building I bought before to rent out. Needless to say, although it is said that he has never accepted commercial performances, but he endorses Sister Xiaoxiao, which is a good income. Plus she also has an apartment building for rent. You don't need to say it. Just the Wuzi Lianxing Building, a year's rent will not be enough for a few lifetimes. Not to mention your car factory, steel factory, 4S shop. Why are you so tired!" Iarino asked, puzzled.
At this point, I am already very rich.
In fact, no matter how hard you struggle or not, it's all the same. There will be no change in the quality of life.
Why is this struggle now?
Qin Feng smiled.
Indeed, if we don't struggle now, life will still be very good. But people, they always have to dream or something. If there is no ideal in life, what is the difference between it and a salted fish!" Qin Feng smiled, "Is it just for eating, drinking, and having fun all day long?
In the past, Qin Feng's biggest dream was to eat, drink and be merry all day long. But when I really get to this point, I find it boring to eat, drink and have fun. The first few days were very happy and comfortable.
But after a period of time, the person becomes decadent because he has nothing to do all day long. In the end, man is abolished. Therefore, this man was born to work hard. In other words, people still have to find a spiritual sustenance in some aspects.
Without spiritual sustenance, without a career that you can fight for all your life, that life will be full of regrets. Or rather, it will become empty. That kind of life is empty to the extreme, and there is not much difference between living and dying.
Iranor nodded.
"I still don't understand. But maybe you're right!" Ihanor pouted.
At this time, the Filipino maid came.
"Sir, there's a guy named Liu Qiangdong coming to visit you outside!" said the Filipino maid.
