Samuel, the head of IBM on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, also watched the press conference of Lens Semiconductor in the middle of the night, and he was inexplicably angry when he learned the news.

Because IBM learned about Bluestar Technology's "Kunpeng Plan", it is also working on corresponding solutions, once Bluestar Technology succeeds, IBM can provide the servers needed for the submarine data center, so as to earn a lot of dollars.

This is a big order that has the potential to reach billions of dollars, and who doesn't want to see it.

I never thought that Luo Sheng would actually give the order to a more technologically expensive and more expensive ploughshare as a server, and it was obvious that he wanted to get rid of the North American supply chain partners in planning.

At the same time, the scene of the Lens Semiconductor press conference.

Xu Zhijun said aloud to everyone: "The following applause is to invite Mr. Luo Sheng, the founder, chairman and CEO of Cote d'Azur and Bluestar Technology, to take the stage to introduce the details of this cooperation. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of warm applause from the scene, Luo Sheng also stood up from his seat, turned back to the audience to salute his eyes, and then calmly walked onto the stage of the press conference, and after shaking hands with Lao Xu, he also took over the press conference from the other party.

On the stage, Xu Zhijun came to the side, and Luo Sheng stood in the middle of the stage.

"I am glad that Lens Semiconductor is the closest and most important link between the Cote d'Azur and Huawei, and the relationship and communication between the directors has become even closer." Luo Sheng's voice resounded throughout the audience, and as soon as he took the stage, he instantly held the audience.

The Cote d'Azur holds a 34% stake in Lens Semiconductor, which is equivalent to a veto on major matters at the shareholders' meeting, but it has never been used so far, and Luo Sheng only dominates the mobile processor part of Lens Semiconductor.

More than half of Lens Semiconductor's board of directors is controlled by the company, so the two sides have reached a balance point.

"Recently, I have seen some news media hype, the possibility of a merger of Cote d'Azur, Bluestar Technology, and Hua, and such a topic seems to be very marketable, but Cote d'Azur has no communication genes, and Bluestar Technology is an Internet company, even if it doesn't merge, it comes together now, isn't it?"

Luo Sheng said unhurriedly, but when he said the word "merger", the IT people in the audience were still startled, this is terrifying to think about, several companies are giants themselves, if they go to merge, it will be the rhythm of super technology giants.

After a while, Luo Sheng, who was pacing back and forth on the stage, continued: "It reminds me of a quote made by Google CEO Dr. Eric Schmidt at the first developer conference on the Côte d'Azur, which is still very meaningful at this moment. Every company should try to do what they do best, and the communication business is the strength of Huawei, but not the strength of the Cote d'Azur. ”

"From the perspective of the Cote d'Azur, what we do is try to cooperate with other companies, especially Huawei, the company's culture is very similar, and at the same time cooperate with many data services, Lao Xu showed what he can do, but you should know that a person or a company has not done it personally will not understand how difficult it is to integrate these things together, the right time and place are indispensable."

"But today we are talking about Bluestar Technology, the 'Kunpeng Project' has made us aim at the underwater, the project has made exciting breakthroughs since its launch, and we believe that it has the possibility of commercial use, so this time we signed a contract order with 'Kunpeng Server' for 4 large submarine data centers, a server order contract of 11.7 billion yuan, and this is just the beginning."

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng pressed the small remote control in his hand, and the large screen showed a map of Huaguo, and at the same time, four markers appeared in the area of the Bohai Rim Economic Belt, the Yangtze River Delta Economic Belt, the Pearl River Delta Economic Belt and the Qinghai Lake in the west.

Luo Sheng turned back to all the audience: "But this is only the trial operation stage of the 'Kunpeng Project', and we haven't even included it in the official commercial phase internally, because our engineers still have more room for improvement in the technology of the submarine data center, so this is the technology accumulation stage." ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience at the scene felt a stomachache when they heard it, especially the international friends and businessmen who wanted to spit fragrantly.

Is this human talk?

The server alone cost 11.7 billion, and the construction of the entire four submarine data centers will cost 200 billion, and then you say it's to test the water?

If you have money, you can do whatever you want?

But then again, the friends who are working on the submarine data center who are crossing the river with the 'Kunpeng Project' are really anxious, because there are too many behind.

"Bluestar Technology Group plans to budget $30 billion to build new data centers in the following regions around the world."

Luo Sheng didn't know what international friends and businessmen thought, and he wouldn't care too much if he knew, but he pressed the small remote control, and the big screen behind him became a world map.

There were 12 markers near the coast of China, 2 markers in Southeast Asia, 2 markers in the Sea of Japan, 1 mark on the southeast coast of Japan, 1 mark on the Arabian Gulf, 1 mark in the interior of the Persian Gulf, 4 markers in the northern part of the Mediterranean Rim, 1 mark on the French coastline, 1 mark on the German coastline, and 1 mark on the southeastern coastline of England.

Then there are 8 marks on the west coast of North America, 9 marks on the east coast, 3 marks on the Caribbean, 2 marks on South America, and 1 mark on Australia.

It is mainly concentrated in the northern temperate zone, basically covering the main densely populated areas of the world.

……

Samuel, who was following the press conference with "My Heavenly ......", saw these marks and wondered why, and it was heartbroken to think that these orders for undersea data centers had been preferred.

Spending $30 billion to build 49 undersea data centers, if IBM undertakes the server order, it means a super order of nearly $15 billion.

But more is panic, this is not just a simple loss of a big order, but an opportunity to carry the rise of a competitor.

"No, no, we have to stop the expansion of the ploughshare." Samuel muttered to himself.

……

At the same time, Luo Sheng said at the press conference: "We are very confident that we will achieve the world's leading submarine data center in 2015, that is, we will be really put into use from 2015, with 49 ultra-large submarine data centers in these areas, and if it goes well, we will achieve this exciting goal in 2020, so this cooperation is just the opening game, and we are looking forward to the future, thank you." ”

After speaking, Luo Sheng walked off the stage in a burst of warm applause, and Lao Xu appeared again to put the finishing touches on the "Kunpeng 0611" press conference.

At the end of the press conference, witnessed by all the media and industry insiders, Lao Xu, on behalf of Huawei and Lens Semiconductor, and Luo Sheng, on behalf of Bluestar Technology, officially completed the signing ceremony of the order of up to 11.7 billion yuan for four submarine data centers.

Submarine data center, this keyword has become the focus of the scientific and technological community after the press conference, and of course, the self-developed "Kunpeng 0611" server chip is indispensable.

This is undoubtedly another exciting news in the field of science and technology, the submarine data center, which is a cutting-edge technology field proposed, led, innovated and led by domestic technology companies, is a very rare example.

High-tech companies in North America, such as Microsoft, Google, IBM, and Amazon, are also working on technologies for undersea data centers, but they are clearly lagging behind.

Although Luo Sheng said that it was a trial run, this is also a sign of modesty, such a large investment is smashed, and the trial run is also an operation, and it is also to make money to recover the cost.

Peers are well aware that the pioneers in this field are already a big step ahead of them, and they are also well aware that the advantages of reduced operating costs brought by submarine data centers will soon be applied to cloud computing services.

Bluestar Technology's Nebula Star-Cloud will provide better solutions and lower costs, which will inevitably bring stronger international competitiveness.

This undoubtedly makes Bluestar Technology, which is already the hegemon in the field of cloud services, even more invincible in this field.
