Now no one may be able to see Zhang Yi's purpose, the so-called tablet-specific central processing unit, although it is not taken into account at present. But in the future, with the rise of the mobile Internet, this field that no one cares about will become a blue ocean for capitalists to chase.

Low power consumption, low heat, and multiple cores are the future development direction of mobile processors.

Intel's tablet CPU for Microsoft, and the dedicated high-density integrated chip motherboard, are technically mature enough to cope with ordinary web browsing and e-book reading.

It's just that Microsoft's tablet operating system is just too much of a failure. In fact, Microsoft's mobile dream is always failing and never succeeding. Even in 2018 before Zhang Yi's rebirth, Microsoft's so-called two-in-one tablet and notebook product was a niche product, just losing money and making money.

Intel is a publicly traded company, and any decision must be disclosed on its website.

After seeing the news reported on its official website that it will package and sell all the chips and processor patents of the tablet to the micro-hardware and software Sam Guo Branch. Zhang Yi was anxious, paying attention to the major newspapers in Sam's Country, and he was afraid that those habitual and anti-Celestial Guys would jump out and attack the chip transfer plan.

Unexpectedly, the content of the agreement announced by Intel did not have any impact in public opinion, and it seems that everyone has not paid attention to Intel at all, nor does it care which company Intel cooperates with and what confidential things are sold.

The reaction in the market made Zhang Yi feel for the first time that he really didn't know much about the Sam people, and he really didn't know what these Sam uncles were thinking all day long. Don't they really know what this will mean in the future?

In fact, the Sam's Country government and Congress are strictly guarding against computer chip technology, because they understand that chip technology is the core of Sam's Country's national competitiveness.

And the tablet, to say that it sounds good, is a miniature computer, and to say that it is ugly, in their eyes, it is just a large-screen calculator.

Most Sam's people don't know anything about tablets, and even those who know a little more think that tablets are just a joke made by Intel and Microsoft.

So, in this strange atmosphere, the agreement was successfully signed and the patent was transferred smoothly.

When Otellnine announced to the tablet group that the micro-hardware and software would be acquired as a whole. The most unexpected scene appeared, and none of the more than 20 employees in the entire tablet chip design team objected to joining the micro-hardware software.

This surprised Otellin, who didn't think there was any other company in the hardware industry that had a better salary package than Intel.

Therefore, the acquisition plan of micro-hardware software will definitely meet with the resistance of these employees, but, however, he thought of the beginning, but did not expect the end.

As an Intel executive, Otellan never cared about hardware

In other industries outside of the industry, he can proudly believe that Intel is second to none in the hardware industry.

But what about outside the hardware industry!

Micro-hardware and software is an outlier, maybe the salary is not the highest, but all kinds of hidden benefits must be the best. More importantly, the company actively understands the needs of its employees and addresses them.

Money is important, but there are some things that money can't buy.

For example, after the acquisition, Blizzard's wages and salaries have indeed increased, but if you ask them, compared with the previous Blizzard, which aspect has changed the most?

Any employee will tell you that working here, you will feel at ease and comfortable from the heart, your family has no worries, and all your difficulties will be solved by the company. You just have to work hard!

Blizzard's changes have provoked strong repercussions in the gaming industry.

What Zhang Yi did was to buy horse bones, build a nest, and attract phoenixes.

Now it seems that this move has really succeeded.

In the case of Intel's tablet chip development team, the previous approach worked wonders, making the acquisition process and the poaching plan a natural and natural fit.

The chip is there, but the foundry is still missing.

In the future, TSMC, which has the highest level of chip manufacturing in the world, is still in the process of difficult exploration.

As for the assembly foundry, there is no Foxconn yet, but there are three major motherboard manufacturers, and even ASUS, one of them, in the previous life, also helped Google OEM the NEX tablet.

The board production capacity of the three major companies has the momentum to catch up with and surpass that of Japanese companies.

However, TSMC, like other treasure island companies, does not have its own core technology, so it can only fall into a vicious circle of foundry to obtain profits, then upgrade the level of wafer manufacturing, and then to obtain profits, and the core lifeblood is all in the hands of Qualcomm, Intel and other upstream companies that have mastered core technologies.

Even the lithography machines used to make wafers are produced by Toshiba or Siemens.

At the beginning of its establishment, the "Treasure Island Development Fund" accounted for 483 shares, the largest shareholder, Philips of the Netherlands accounted for 275, and 7 private companies including Formosa Plastics accounted for 242. After TSMC went public, the "Treasure Island Development Fund" gradually withdrew, and by 2001 it held 121 shares, still the second largest shareholder.

Thanks to the rich information stored in the brain domain, Zhang Yi also retrieved some information about TSMC in the future.

Next year, that is, after 2003, Philips of the Netherlands gradually withdrew, and the "Treasure Island Development Fund" still held 638 shares, making it the largest shareholder.

At this time, TSMC is very unique in management.

The founder, Zhang Zhongmou, at the beginning of the establishment of TSMC, established the business philosophy of "employees are the owners of the company", and established an effective salary system and incentive mechanism. Before the listing, it was stipulated that 8 percent of the annual after-tax profit would be used as a reward for all employees.

Such a salary system also makes

Many foreign capitals that pursue the ultimate profit are very disdainful, so that TSMC can only develop silently for a long time, and no one cares.

Think about it, even if the bullish Huawei HiSilicon designs the chips in the future, they will have to be handed over to TSMC to OEM.

At present, TSMC was pressed on the head by Intel when the computer industry was in full swing, and it was at a low point.

Zhang Yi, who pursues an expansion strategy, is unwilling to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

However, if he goes into battle shirtless, with the black miasma of the political arena of Treasure Island, it is estimated that good things will definitely be disrupted.

What I didn't say is that Apple, which has been coveting the chip industry for a long time, is exactly what it can use.

You must know that in the previous life, Apple was delayed by the chip manufacturer Samsung from time to time for various reasons, in order to achieve the sinister purpose of affecting Apple's mobile phone sales and promoting Samsung's own mobile phone sales.

Qualcomm, who was even more rogue-like, stripped patent taxes according to the price of mobile phones, and sucked blood on Apple.
