Chapter 152: Rogue Strategy
Headquarters, Chen Nuo's office.
Liu Jiangfeng, Zhang Yi, Liu Kai and other senior executives of Bluestar Technology gathered together.
The market version of the smart chip and Starlight OS have been debugged for a while, but there has been no mass production and no public announcement, and everyone is waiting for the boss's final decision.
Chen Nuo listened to Zhang Yi and Liu Kai's opinions respectively, and then asked Liu Jiangfeng.
Although Liu Jiangfeng is not responsible for technology, but he still has the right to speak in the company's future planning, Liu Jiangfeng thought for a while and said: "This still depends on what is the future positioning of Bluestar Company, if Bluestar Technology positions itself in Intel and AMD, then I agree with Mr. Zhang's opinion, the chips and operating systems we have developed are sold to the outside world, whether it is Huawei or Lenovo in the future, as long as we are willing to purchase our chips and operating systems, we are welcome."
If Bluestar Technology positions itself in a company similar to Alphabet (umbrella company, Google's parent company), similar to smart chips and Starlight OS, we are better off taking it into our own hands. When the product is derived and upgraded, some backward technologies can be transferred to downstream companies. ”
Chen Nuo nodded, "Technology products are different from other products, its industrial chain extends from top to bottom, from high-end to low-end. Whether it is a computer or a computer, smart chips can only be optimally played with the cooperation of graphene moore memory and carbon crystal batteries.
Bluestar Technology can produce its own computers and mobile phones, and can even produce its own wearable devices in the future, but we must be positioned at the high-end, and our products must become the industry's standard and become the industry's fashion, and use this as a radiation to make consumers flock to any level of Bluestar Technology's products.
We not only want to launch our own high-end equipment to set a benchmark for the industry, but also sell castrated chips to seize the market of Intel, AMD, Qualcomm and Liankefa! ”
Chen Nuo has set the tone for the future development of Bluestar Technology, and there will be two types of chips for the market in the future.
One is a chip with lower performance, but 25% higher performance than the existing chips on the market, this kind of chip is named Bluestar Aurora, which can be well combined with hardware and software on the market, and can replace the existing Qualcomm or Intel position.
The other is a smart chip that is more than twice as high as the equivalent chip on the market, but much lower than the performance of the Bluestar supercomputer. This kind of chip is the real smart chip, named Bluestar Wisdom, which is only used in mobile phones and laptops developed by Bluestar Technology, and can run Starlight OS and Xiaoyou at the same time, focusing on the high-end market.
Whether it is Bluestar Aurora or Bluestar Wisdom, the performance is stronger than the existing chips on the market, in which the core computing can divide a part of the computing function to replace the function of the GPU of the feature phone of the current computer graphics card.
In the future history of human computers, graphics cards and GPUs will disappear completely.
Judging from the cost data calculated by the laboratory, the production cost of smart chips is less than a quarter of Intel's corresponding level, and if mass production is achieved and brought to the market, the profit will be quite terrifying.
In 2013, China's chip imports exceeded crude oil to 231.3 billion meters, and in 2017, the chip import amount has reached twice that of crude oil.
If the Aurora chip and the wisdom chip are mass-produced, this will not only alleviate the dilemma of China's big country without cores, but also bring great benefits to Bluestar Technology!
With the boss's decision, Zhang Yi and Chen Kai's work will be much faster.
Chen Kai is responsible for the development of electronic equipment equipped with Bluestar Wisdom chips, and Zhang Yi is responsible for the development of Bluestar Aurora chips.
Soon, the Bluestar Aurora chip was the first to be launched.
Because graphene stacked particles are used as raw materials, the performance of Aurora chips cannot be measured by traditional CPU frequencies and nano processes.
Therefore, Zhang Yi used a crude and simple method to describe the performance, "The performance of Bluestar Aurora 1.0H is 25% higher than that of the most powerful Intel 18-core i9-7980XE on the market today!" ”
Zhang Yi said rather shamelessly: "Our research team purchased the i9-7980XE and adjusted it up according to its performance standards. At the same time, Aurora can replace the core processing power of the graphics card GTX1080Ti with some more processing power, but because of the core computing method of the smart chip, the power consumption is quite low, and it only needs 3V to run at full capacity, and there is almost no heating. It should be added that the chip must be paired with more than 16G of graphene mole memory to run well. ”
At the same time, Zhang Yi's team developed the Aurora 1.0M and Aurora 1.0L computer chips corresponding to the mainstream Intel i7-8700k GTX1060Ti and i5-8600k GTX1050Ti on the market, respectively, with 25% higher performance than them.
Among them, the suffix names H, M, and L of the Aurora chip represent high, medium, and low performance, respectively.
Zhang Yi said even more shamelessly: "In the future, if the performance of Intel's chips at each level increases a little, we will also improve it a little until he goes bankrupt." ”
On mobile phones, Zhang Yi's team also launched the Bluestar Unicorn 1.0 chip, which is 25% higher than the Xiaolong 845 launched by Qualcomm this year, focusing on the mobile phone and tablet market.
When the work report was completed, Zhang Yi was quite stunned, and seemed to have seen Intel and AMD deflated.
The offensive strategy adopted by Zhang Yi is really disgusting, and the performance ratio is always 25% higher is that you will never be able to catch up.
"What about capacity?" This is what Chen Nuo is concerned about.
"We now have 20 chip production lines, which can produce 100,000 Aurora chips and 100,000 unicorn chips per day, and we can also outsource the production lines in the future."
Chen Nuo nodded, "Let's try the market's reaction before announcing the news." ”
……
A few days later, an old Internet café near Jiangcheng University closed its doors for a week and reopened after replacing its equipment.
The decoration style has not changed, but the equipment has been replaced.
The boss Zhang Yi held a cigarette and asked the workers to post a big welcome at the door and free Internet access for three days.
Nowadays, computers are very common, and most students come to Internet cafes to play games and open up black.
In the afternoon, some students who did not have classes were attracted by the free activities, and Zhou Bin, who has his own LOL competitive team, also came here with four brothers.
"It's free, go in and try it?" Zhou Bin consulted his teammates for advice.
"Forget it, the machine card of this Internet café is called Desire to Die, let's go to the cloud network to be better."
"But it's free!" Zhou Bin licked his tongue, isn't it stupid to take advantage of it!
Captain Zhou Bin made up his mind and said, "Go!" Let's go in and try it, this opening reward must have changed the machine! ”
