Chapter 226 Hualong chips are slashed globally
Intel also followed suit with the launch of its own flagship chip, the Besturn M.
The chip also uses the superposition technology of Hualong series CPUs.
Although the number of transistors is not as good as alongII.
However, with its strong comprehensive performance and number of fans, Pentium M still overwhelmed AM company.
……
Although everyone's lithography machines use deep ultraviolet light.
But exposure technology is not yet at a level.
Relative to the two hundred and fifty nanometers of Hualong H3.
One hundred and thirteen nanometers is twice as much.
For the two companies, the cost and profit margin are more than Longhan Microelectronics.
……
Of course, Su Han is not used to children.
His R&D progress has not stopped.
Although the lithography machine is still 250 nanometers, when it comes to superposition technology, he is the grandfather.
Intel and AM are just junior brothers.
Hualong Microelectronics immediately officially announced its new generation of products.
Hualong H3s.
Although it is still 250 nanometers, this time the chip is more than twice as large as the H3, and the number of transistors is as high as 230 million.
Although it is only thirty million more than alongII.
However, due to the fact that the instruction set of the Hanlin Academy is a reduced instruction set, the operation speed is faster than the complex instruction set of X86.
Therefore, the Haohan X system with the instruction set of the Hanlin Academy runs faster.
Overall, it is still the new flagship that crushes the two companies.
This naturally makes the two major companies angry.
Hualong H3s is as large as Hualong H3.
Such a big chip.
In the eyes of both companies, this is simply insane.
Su Han didn't care about that.
The process is not large enough to make up.
Even if Lao Tzu loses money, he will play with you to the end.
Hualong H3s is priced at 1,500 meters of gold.
In fact, the price of this flagship chip has dropped a lot.
After all, the three companies are constantly upgrading and iterating one after another.
Although there is competition is good.
But the product iteration is too fast, and the consumer's pockets can't stand it.
In recent years, the consumption of the computer market has shrunk, and consumers have also learned well, and it is no longer the era when fools were everywhere before.
……
Intel and AM immediately adjusted the new flagship chip to 900 meters of gold.
Hualong H3 has also been adjusted to seven hundred.
The price of the previous CPU is also getting lower and lower.
The cheapest is only 200 meters of gold.
Hualong H1a1 is even sold for only 700 yuan in China.
Relative to Su Han's previous life.
The processor in this life is already the price of cabbage.
……
NV has also released a new version of its graphics card, the GF5.
Relative to the CPU market you live and die.
There are only NV companies and AT companies in the graphics card market.
However, the market share of AT companies is very low, and the current graphics card market is still dominated by NV companies.
……
May.
The number of lithography machines of Longhan Microelectronics has reached more than 40 units.
The daily output of chips is close to 400,000.
At this time, the production capacity of Longhan Technology is basically enough for 90% of the world's production capacity.
Su Han decided to officially launch a price war against Intel and AM.
Su Han adjusted Hualong H1a1 and H2a2 from 700 to 600 in China.
In fact, the price of Hualong H2 in China has always been more expensive than H1.
But this time, Su Han not only adjusted the price to the same, but even lowered it by 100 yuan from the original.
In fact, whether it is an Internet company or an AM company, there is almost no market in China.
Because Huaxia is also the same as Mi Federation, the chips of the two companies have been adjusted by several times the tax rate, so no matter how cheap the two companies are, they are more expensive than Hualong CPUs.
In the end, both companies almost abandoned the domestic market in China.
For them, the international market is what they want.
Hualong series processors will be dominated by Longhan Electronics in China.
This will allow Su Han to raise the price of domestic chips and use the profits of the domestic market to subsidize foreign prices.
But Su Han knows that although the country's per capita income is higher than in the previous life. But compared with those foreigners with deep pockets, there is still a big gap.
No matter what, he will not become one of those comprador enterprises, cutting the flesh of his own people, more ruthless than foreigners.
Although the price of domestic processors is already very low, Su Han decided to continue to reduce the price.
Because he wants to promote the development of parallel trading.
When a commodity is 100 percent profitable, global capital will take risks for it.
At present, the cheapest chips sold by the Intel company and the AM company in the country of the Mi Federation are also sold for more than 300 meters of gold.
And his own chip is only a few tens of meters of gold.
With such a big price difference, he doesn't believe that those underground capitalists in the Mi Federation will not look for opportunities?
Dumping at a low price is the result that Su Han wants.
……
In the international market, Suhan has also slightly adjusted the price of CPUs.
Hualong H1a1 and H2a2 were adjusted from 200 meters of gold to 150 meters of gold.
Hualong H3 has been adjusted from 500 meters of gold to 350 meters of gold.
Hualong H3s has been adjusted from 1,500 meters of gold to 850 meters of gold.
It's even fifty meters cheaper than the flagship CPUs of Intel and AM.
International users are of course overjoyed to see this.
Although the CPU process of Intel and AM is more advanced.
But it's also an indisputable fact that the Hualong series processors are faster.
The computer system market is vast again.
Therefore, a large number of users turn to buy Hualong series CPUs.
Sales of products from Intel and AM have declined rapidly.
……
Of course, Intel and AM were a little dumbfounded.
Because of the price of the Hualong series processors.
They simply can't take it.
This is obviously a loss of money and making money.
Although Intel can design and produce chips by itself, the consumables need to be purchased from outside. Moreover, the design and development of a chip consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, and the investment is not a few.
This is also why the new model chip must make a big profit when it is first launched.
But now in the market, because of the-stirring stick of Longhan Microelectronics.
It's been a long time since the company has made money on flagship chips.
With a flagship product, it must also be sold as a second-generation product.
This has greatly increased the pressure on the R&D of Intel.
There is no output without income.
Even if it is a wealthy Intel company, it can't stand it for a long time.
What's more, Intel is not only at high R&D costs.
The cost of manufacturing is also high.
Chip design is constantly iterative, and if you want to produce the most advanced chips, you need to buy the most advanced lithography machine.
Even if the process is only improved by tens of nanometers, the lithography machine production line needs to be replaced.
And the most advanced lithography machine in the world.
Basically, it starts from tens of millions of meters of gold.
After the lithography machine is replaced, the related equipment production lines such as etching machines, polishing machines, ion implanters, and packaging machines must be replaced.
So many things to swap out.
It's not just a matter of tens of millions of meters.
It is often an investment of hundreds of millions of meters.
There are also consumables needed to process chips that are not cheap.
What silicon wafers, specialty gases, photomasks, photoresists, wet chemicals, targets, auxiliary materials, etc......
