Four Seasons Hotel, Shanghai.

The news that Luo Jia will attend the meeting tomorrow reached the Semiconductor Alliance that night and caused quite a stir.

"It's finally time for a showdown." Professor Hawkins smiled and said, "It was January when we came, and now it's mid-April, and those Chinese people have been dragging us with all kinds of excuses. ”

Turning to the window, looking at the past from the height of the 46th floor, the lights of Shanghai at night are brilliant, and the high-rise buildings are lined up, especially after the beginning of spring, the crowd of tourists on the street has increased significantly, and the crowd is crowded, so it is not lively.

Ay~

Professor Hawkins let out a long sigh and sighed: "But in retrospect, it's not all bad, at least we saw what the real China looks like, it's hard to imagine that they actually built roads and connected electricity to all villages, even in the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia, there is still a mobile phone signal, and the infrastructure level of Huaxia is far more developed than many developed countries." ”

After listening to the professor's words, everyone was emotional, and after reading too many reports on CNN's distorted facts, they suddenly came to the real China, feeling like a foreigner who had never seen the world, stunned by the high-rise buildings all over the world.

"There is a CEO in our company, whose nickname is Laiang of India, do you know how this nickname came about?" The representative of Siemens Group joked: "At that time, there were two regional presidents, one was the president of India and the other was the president of Huaxia, but Mr. Lai Ang firmly believed that Huaxia was a poor and backward place, so he resolutely chose to go to India to take office, and gave up the Huaxia region to competitors." ”

"From that day on, the cup has been doomed, watching competitors post photos of themselves in China every day and enjoying food, and then look at their surroundings, cow dung all over the ground and Indian Ah San who defecates on cow dung, Laiang almost wanted to cry, so later, India's Laiang became a famous case of our company, used to ridicule those who have eyes and no beads."

Hahahaha~

After listening to this story, everyone laughed, once upon a time, employees stationed in China had to offer at least three times the bonus, otherwise no one would want to come, and now, the work of the resident in China needs to go through fierce competition and screening, and everyone is eager to do it.

"The shock I received from this visit to Huaxia was too great." Another negotiator said: "While there is still poverty and backwardness here, what country is not, with an average of a dozen shootings a day in the slums of Detroit, yet North America is still the world's only superpower." ”

"That's not the crux of the matter, it's that East Asians are really smart, their average IQ is far ahead of other ethnic groups, and they're not only smart, they're working very hard, for example, if it weren't for the North American crackdown, which led to economic stagnation for 30 years, I don't know how high it would have been today."

The deputy's words caused everyone to think deeply, Japan and South Korea have reached the top of the world, assuming that the giant of China also rises rapidly, the trouble facing the West is not only an economic crisis, but a racial crisis.

It is impossible to imagine the terrible situation if the global center shifts from Europe and the United States to East Asia, and white girls are proud to marry East Asians.

"I think you will remember that in the 80s of the last century, the neon semiconductor industry was booming, and the market share even surpassed that of North America at one point, but so what? Haven't you been suppressed yet? ”

"On the one hand, we signed a semiconductor agreement and a square agreement with Neon to force Neon Semiconductor's market share to be no higher than 20 percent and the price to be lower than similar products in the West, and on the other hand, we are cultivating South Korea as a new semiconductor production base, so that South Korea and Neon can compete, and East Asians will eat dog by themselves."

"After this series of operations, the neon semiconductor industry has finally declined, and South Korea, I'm sorry, Samsung's shares are actually in our hands, it's just a North American company dressed in the skin of South Korea."

"Today's China, the scale of the semiconductor industry is far less than the neon of the last century, and even the neon has been played to death by us, why should they compete with us? Is it just a new lithography machine? ”

Listening to the words of this representative, everyone laughed, until today, the semiconductor alliance encircled and suppressed Huaxia, which is already a consensus, especially after they saw the real Huaxia with their own eyes, they have become more determined.

Therefore, the Chinese masses always complain that the West does not understand the East, and there are too many misunderstandings in it.

But if you think about it carefully, not understanding is not necessarily a bad thing, because if you don't understand, you will despise it, and once the West sees China clearly, they should be afraid.

……

In the afternoon of the next day, Hong Tao and Luo Jia came to Pudong from Baoshan, and when they walked into the conference room, the representatives of the semiconductor alliance were already sitting in danger, with a suit and leather business style, and there was a nameplate in front of each person's seat, indicating the company they represented.

Intel, AMD, Texas Instruments, IBM, Microsoft, Applied Materials, Apple, Google, Facebook, Colin Technologies, Infineon, STMicroelectronics, ASML, Siemens, Philips, GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Toshiba, Hitachi, Samsung, Hyundai, Shin-Etsu, TDK, Taiyo Yuden...

In addition to this, there are representatives of Western academic fields, Princeton, Caltech, Massachusetts, Cambridge, Oxford, etc.

Luo Jia glanced at the nameplates in front of these representatives, and felt very exaggerated, it seemed that all the semiconductor-related companies in the world had sent representatives to attend the meeting, and the market value of these giant companies together was tens of trillions of dollars.

The lineup on Huaxia's side is much more shabby, although Ali and Tencent are bullish, but in the final analysis, most of the shares are still in the hands of foreigners, making the money of the Chinese people, but in the end they have to be distributed to foreign shareholders, no matter how much you think about it, it will be a little uncomfortable.

The reason why people respect Huawei and Xingchen Technology so much, in the final analysis, is because Miao Zhenggen is red, only the two of them are truly 100% national enterprises, and the rest are listed in the Hong Kong government and have foreign shareholders.

Luo Jia sat down, surrounded by Huawei, Spreadtrum, Unisplendour, ZTE, Yangtze River, Jinhua, SMIC, etc., this is the lineup of Huaxia's semiconductor industry.

So far, no one knows the real goal of Xingchen Technology, and the progress they have made now, and the secrecy work is doing a good job, everyone thinks that Xingchen Technology's Plan B is to join forces with David Patterson to engage in RISC-V architecture, but in fact, Xingchen Technology's so-called Plan B is actually just a cover for the crazier Plan C.

Hong Tao stood up and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I have sent today's latest agenda to the tablet in front of you, if there are no problems, we will officially start the discussion next." ”

It's rare for Hong Tao to be so direct today, in normal times, the dead fat man surnamed Hong and the big mouth surnamed Yu always talk about him left and right, and they just can't get to the topic, and the negotiators are annoyed.

It seems that there is really going to be a showdown, everyone has their own thoughts, and they have stood up to speak, explaining their respective positions and requirements, Luo Jia listened quietly on the side, and her brows gradually tightened.

"Xingchen Technology Group must unconditionally restore the supply of photoresist immediately, and open the next generation of lithography machines, all semiconductor companies in the world, can order and use the next generation of lithography machines, including but not limited to technical support and follow-up services." Intel's representative spoke in English about his request.

Hong Tao glanced at Luo Jia, his expression was very helpless, the meaning was very obvious, in the past few months, Hong Tao has been dealing with these guys, and his life has been really hard.

"If we restore the supply of photoresist and sell the next generation of lithography machines unconditionally, what is Intel Group willing to give in return?" Hong Tao asked.

The Intel representative raised the gold wire glasses upward, "We will grant you the right to use the patent library under the x86 architecture." ”

Hong Tao touched his chin, "Use the lithography machine and photoresist for your X86 patent library authorization?" That's a bit excessive, right? As far as I know, you only account for one-third of the X86 patent pool, and even if we get the license, it will still be incomplete. ”

"That's no way, if you want to develop your own CPU technology, you must get the X86 architecture license, you are right, we don't master the entire X86 architecture, AMD, Deyi, IBM, you still have to talk about it one by one, as for what conditions they prescribe, it has nothing to do with us."

"In addition, even if you get the full X86 architecture license, it is still not enough to develop the semiconductor industry, because you still have the instruction set and assembly machine language, even if you get all these three licenses, you will only complete the preparation of the software, etching, packaging, and electrical evaluation required for hardware manufacturing, and these technologies still need to be licensed and exchanged."

Hahahaha~

The representatives of the semiconductor alliance laughed one after another, looking very proud, as if they were watching the jokes of the Chinese people, after all, the semiconductor giants have spent dozens or hundreds of years to create this unrivaled technology patent moat, even if it is a research and development enterprise like Xingchen Technology, it is not easy to cross.

Hong Tao was still dealing with this group of foreigners, but Yu Chengdong smiled wryly, lowered his voice and said to Luo Jia: "Their current strategy is to divide, each company has a separate request, and wants to break us apart, crumple it, and play slowly, such negotiations are obviously not sincere, and it is estimated that in the end, there will be a final showdown." ”

Is that so?

Luo Jia frowned, his focus has always been on the research and development direction of the headquarters, he heard Hong Tao say that the negotiation is very difficult, but Luo Jia is not clear about the specific difficult method.

Using the lithography machine for the X86 architecture authorization, using the energy wave wireless charging technology for the instruction set authorization, and using the Carmen vortex street power generation for the assembly logic, how could Xingchen Technology agree, if the agreement is signed, it will definitely become the Treaty of Shimonoseki in the new century.

Suddenly, there was silence in the audience, because people found that Luo Jia stood up, his face was expressionless, his eyes quickly swept the audience, and then said in a deep voice: "Obviously, you have no sincerity in negotiating, and we cannot accept the conditions proposed." ”

Professor Hawkins, who had come to Shanghai on behalf of Princeton University, stood up, and was considered an academic speaker.

For this negotiation, the academic community also has a demand, that is, the Star Journal should publish an English version, and China cannot continue to challenge Western academic hegemony, and now scholars from many countries have tried to submit Chinese papers to China, which is unbearable for the academic community.

"Mr. Luo misunderstood, the contemptible person is a computer at Princeton University..."

Professor Hawkins said slowly, looking calm and relaxed, but unexpectedly, Luo Jia didn't seem to be interested in him.

"Mr. Professor, please shut up for me." Luo Jia said with a smile: "Because I haven't finished my words yet." ”

Puff~

Hong Tao, who was drinking a bottle of Nongfu Spring, sprayed directly, Luo Jia was really rough enough, Hawkins, as the director of the computer science department at Princeton, has a long reputation in the world, but he was directly told by Luo Jia to shut up, and at this moment, Hawkins's face was as ugly as it was.

Luo Jia said lightly: "We do want to develop semiconductors, but this does not mean that we have to kneel down and beg anyone to allow us to develop semiconductors. ”

At this, Professor Hawkins was even more angry, he stood up again and said loudly, "Do you know what you are talking about? Billions of large and small computing devices in China use all the core technologies from the West! ”

His gaze suddenly became sharp, and a trace of incomparable essence crossed the corner of Luo Jia's eyes, and he snorted coldly and said, "Mr. Professor, why did you stop?" Why don't you go on? ”

"Because we use Western computer technology, we will always be under your control and control? That's what you're trying to say, right? ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Luo Jia said to Hong Tao and Yu Chengdong beside him: "It's all here, I think it's better not to waste time, let's go back and rest and wait for the notice." ”

Since Xingchen Technology no longer wants to talk, it is meaningless for others to stay, under the leadership of Luo Jia, Huaxia began to withdraw, and Western representatives were watching coldly, and seemed to be dissatisfied with Huaxia's unilateral end of negotiations.

When all the Huaxia people were gone, Professor Hawkins raised his eyebrows and let out a cold snort, "Don't worry, it won't be long before they will come back, because Huaxia's so-called Plan B is simply a joke." ”

"They seem to have forgotten that both the RISC-V architecture and the X86 architecture were invented by us in the West."
