Chapter 1407 - The Way of Competition
Between Intel and Chaowei, it's actually very interesting. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Why has there been remarks in the previous life, saying that Chaowei is actually controlled by Inter?
Not only because there are former directors of Intel among the directors of Chaowei, but also because there are former shareholders of Intel among the shareholders of Chaowei, but also because the two parties have a cooperation agreement to exchange authorized technology patents.
The research direction of Intel and Chaowei has always been different, although they are both processors, but the research direction of processors is also different.
Just like this time, Chaowei is slightly better in dual-core processors, but single-core processors, Chaowei still can't be compared with Intel.
But if the two sides exchange technology patents, then they can master the new technology, so that they are far ahead of other semiconductor companies in processor technology, so that the two of them can share the processor market.
Inter's annual turnover last year was almost 10 times that of Chaowei, which had a turnover of less than $4 billion last year, but Inter had a turnover of nearly $40 billion.
Although the PC market is increasing rapidly, and the market for processors and workstations is also expanding rapidly, in the processor market, the market share of Intel has been crushing Chaowei.
However, Inter did not dare to crush Chaowei to death, because that would involve a monopoly and would allow Inter to be forcibly split. Even if Intel does not want to, other semiconductor companies will sue on the grounds of monopoly.
Therefore, Inter has been maintaining a competitive and cooperative relationship with Chaowei.
Competition is naturally the competition of the market, and Inter has always wanted to suppress Chaowei, but it will not use its own influence to make Chaowei have no orders.
The cooperation is the exchange and authorization of the patented technology of the two parties to ensure that they are leading at the same time. Of course, there are also restrictions on the exchange and authorization of patented technologies, and both parties obviously will not license the most core technology to the other party, which means that the most they authorize is the sub-new technology.
In the previous life, Chaowei and Intel often fought lawsuits, accusing each other of patent infringement and accusing each other of monopoly in some aspects.
Most of Chaowei's wins as a disadvantaged group, and at most they lose nearly $1.5 billion at a time, which is much higher than Chaowei's profit in a year.
Almost every time the other party launches a new processor, they will sue them. Either Chaowei sues Inter yet, or Inter sues Chaowei.
Last time, it was Chaowei suing Intel and there was vicious competition in the sales of processors, but this time it was the turn of Intel to accuse Chaowei of using pictures in the technical competition, and propaganda taken out of context was an obvious means of unfair competition.
But Chaowei doesn't care at all, the lawsuit between the two of them has been fought for so many years, and there are not a hundred but eighty, just sue and grab the market first.
Anyway, a lawsuit can't be fought all at once, especially between large companies. All kinds of evidence, all kinds of delays, in less than a year and a half, there will be no verdict. The lawsuit between Microsoft and the European Union has dragged on for six or seven years, as evidenced by this.
If you see that the other party has the intention of winning, you can ask the lawyer to make an appointment with the other party to settle out of court or something. Then the reconciliation talks fell apart, and the court went to court again.
Of course, there are also successful out-of-court settlements, depending on how the two parties exchange interests.
Not only Chaowei and Intel, but also this kind of competition and cooperation between a variety of peer companies.
For example, the earliest Soni and AIWA, the two sides are like this, authorizing each other's patents and borrowing channels from each other, so as to squeeze out other competitors and let them share the market for the Walkman.
It was only after AIWA was acquired by Feng Yu that this cooperation was terminated. After years of development, AIWA has completely surpassed Soni in portable music player products, which may never be imagined by Soni.
Feng Yu has seen many of this kind of competition methods in his previous life. For example, in two domestic milk companies, employees of one company concocted fake news that the other party's milk source was problematic, so as to make the other party's dairy products unsalable and increase their sales.
There are also two beer companies competing, one in order to monopolize the market, let the terminal salesperson buy the other's beer bottles. The beer bottle itself is a recyclable bottle, and when one party wants to produce it, it finds that there are not enough beer bottles, and the loss rate is far more than 100 times the normal loss, so that they cannot produce it.
Another beer company took the opportunity to produce in large quantities and thus occupy the market. Although it cost a lot to buy the other party's beer bottles, the market grabbed it, and it didn't take a year to make it back.
There are also two home appliance promoters, who promote in one place, and then in order to compete for customers, the two sides fight, both lose, and even have a life lawsuit.
There is also the relationship between the two software companies, because the software market makes technical means for each other, if you can use my software, you can't use your software, and the two software are incompatible with each other.
Constant pop-up windows remind the other party that the software is a virus and needs to be uninstalled and deleted. This has caused great inconvenience to users, with some users choosing to delete one of the software, and some users simply deleting both.
But in the end, it was one of the software that won with more and more loyal users. The two sides also patched each other and made compromises under the mediation of the above. One of those companies is Penguin.
The competition between enterprises is originally healthy competition, that is, normal business competition under certain rules. See whose product is better, see whose price is cheaper, see whose service is better, and so on.
However, some companies advocate the so-called wolf culture, that is, corporate competition is either you eat me, or I eat you. In fact, this is only done by small enterprises, and who would dare to swallow all competitors of really large enterprises?
Just like where Coca-Cola is sold, there will be Baishi Cola, and where there is McDonald's, there will be KFC. Although they are competitive, they also promote each other and crowd out other competitors.
Feng Yu asked Chaowei's CEO, but the other party told him that there was no need to worry, it had become the norm for them to accuse each other with Inter, and I believed that it would not be long before they would settle out of court.
As for how long it takes, it should depend on who researches the newer technology first.
But in any case, next year, Chaowei's market share will increase to more than 20 percent. Originally, the Inter was ten times the size of Chaowei, and it would quickly shrink to about four times.
As long as Chaowei can develop a leading processor, then this gap will be quickly narrowed. Five years later, Chaowei's market share has increased to more than 40 percent, and there is great hope.
And at that time, Inter can no longer be so underestimated by Chaowei, or Chaowei really has the ability to wrestle with Inter.
At this time, Feng Yu got together with Liu Chuanzhi and others to discuss the production of a new product.
