Chapter 273: Weisheng Electronics, which committed crimes against the wind

Because Intel has too many patents on the X86 instruction set system, other companies that want to develop processors may touch one of the spider webs at any time and infringe Intel's patents.

In this case, it is equivalent to wearing shackles and fighting with Intel, in this case, how can other companies win Intel?

In the face of this situation of dancing in shackles, there are only . Company D and Intel can fight each other without worrying about their own demise.

Onigiri reads a book

Because. The reason why 64-bit processors were the first to be introduced that year, . Company D also holds a number of patents for 64-bit processors with the X86 instruction set.

Intel, as the company that later developed and launched the 64-bit processor, Intel was also forced to use . Company D's extensive patents for 64-bit processors.

In this case, both parties hold each other's core patents and key technologies, and both parties do not dare to set off a patent war again, which will affect the whole body.

After all, both parties hold and use each other's core patents, and both have handles in each other's hands, and if you sue others, others will sue you, and in the end, everyone will have to finish playing.

Therefore, under the threat of the iron fist of the anti-monopoly law, Intel has been in the company since the new century, or since . Company D was the first to introduce a 64-bit processor.

Intel was forced to pinch his nose and swallow. D's 64-bit X86 instruction set architecture, the two CPU processor companies have never set off any large-scale patent lawsuits, and this situation has not happened until 2022!

But in the face of Hantang Technology, Intel will not turn a blind eye, but will go all out to suppress Hantang Technology!

It's like when Intel suppressed it with all its might. Like Company D, even if a lawsuit has been fought for ten years, Intel has bitten Hantang Technology like a mad dog.

Therefore, at this time, Intel Company is a sure winner, and it does not take Hantang Technology in its eyes at all!

In terms of other fields, Intel is undoubtedly the king in the field of general-purpose CPU processors.

Although Hantang Technology is very large, all the employees of many subsidiaries have reached nearly 70,000 people, and it is also the strength of a super state-owned enterprise in Daxia.

But in the field of general-purpose CPU processors, Intel is undoubtedly the king, and at this time, such a king regards Hantang Technology as a thorn in his side.

All-out suppression, all-out containment, all-out targeting......

In this case, Hantang Technology wants to develop a CPU, which is really difficult to describe......

……

On June 7, 2005, on this day, there was still a heated discussion on the Internet about Hantang Technology, and it was still hot about whether it was possible for Hantang Technology to successfully develop a computer CPU.

In the Modu Airport, a reporter from the Modu Times photographed the head and wife of Wandao VIA (Weisheng Electronics) Company landing in Shanghai and transferring to Rongcheng News in Sichuan Province.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of countless media.

So that night, major media and even Internet media reprinted the news report of the Magic City Times.

So the Magic City Times once again shocked the whole country because of this, and the Magic City Times published two big news that detonated the whole country one after another, and countless media colleagues envied the good luck of the Magic City Times.

In this case, as major newspapers and even Internet media reprinted the article of the Magic City Times.

People across the country are in despair, believing that Hantang Technology will never succeed in developing CPUs.

Mr. Shen, the wife of the chairman of the chairman and the general manager of VIA (Weisheng Electronics) on Nawan Island, actually flew all the way from Wandao to Modu, and then transferred to Rongcheng, Sichuan Province in Modu!

What is the purpose of this Weisheng Electronics, people can naturally see it at a glance, and their purpose must be to find Hantang Technology!

Previously, Hantang Technology failed to obtain the X86 instruction set from Intel, but it made countless people depressed and even despaired, thinking that Daxia would never be able to make a computer CPU.

And at that time, the president of Intel, Paul Odeus, also said three "absolutely not allowed".

The three "never allow" attitudes were so tough that the mood of countless people who heard Paul Odeus's words became more depressed and desperate.

At this time, there are only 4 companies left in the world, and Weisheng Electronics, which still holds the X86 instruction set and is the most powerful CPU manufacturing company in the world, found Hantang Technology.

Doesn't this mean that if Hantang Technology can reach a cooperation with Weisheng Electronics, then Hantang Technology may be able to obtain the production authorization of X86 instruction set from Weisheng Electronics, and finally manufacture the first computer CPU in Daxia!

Countless people who are in despair see this news, as if they are in hell but see the warm light of heaven.

The darkness in my heart was dispelled in an instant, and I became curious about whether Hantang Technology could cooperate with Weisheng Electronics.

But at this time, people don't know that later Weisheng Electronics also had a joint venture with Daxia Consulting in 2013.

Weisheng Electronics produced the X86 instruction set architecture and related processor patents, while Daxia Consulting contributed money, scientific researchers, and equipment, and finally established Zhaoxin, which is also famous in later generations.

This Zhaoxin did not disappoint after its establishment, and it took 6 years of research and development, and finally launched the first X86 instruction set CPU in Daxia in 2019.

However, although Zhaoxin launched Daxia's first X86 instruction set CPU with independent intellectual property rights, its performance is very weak.

Not to mention the I5 or I7 processors of the Intel Core series, even the weakest I3 can't win.

And this can't win refers to the fact that it is not as good as the Core i3 processor of Intel more than 10 years ago, so it goes without saying that the processor launched by Zhaoxin is weak.

However, this can't be blamed on Zhaoxin, because Zhaoxin's instruction set is still the instruction set of the 486 or even 586 era in the early 90s.

In the past ten or twenty years, the processor's X86 instruction set has changed dramatically.

Because Zhaoxin can't get Intel as well. The instruction set authorization that Company D has introduced over the years.

And trying to develop a new instruction set and a new processor is the equivalent of dancing in shackles, and they have to be careful to move back and forth.

There can be no infringement of Intel as well. It is possible for Company D's patent, after all, Zhaoxin cannot afford to pay the patent fee.

I can't afford to play the Intel company and . Company D, which has been in a lawsuit for ten years, does not have that strength.

Once Zhaoxin fell into the year Intel with . If the D lawsuit is fought for ten years, it will seriously drag down the development of Zhaoxin.

So it's good that their processors can do that, and it's very difficult to surpass Intel.

However, it is better than nothing, and Great Xia can be regarded as a solution to the problem of having and not in the future generations.

Although this processor is too rubbish, people will not buy Zhaoxin's processor at all, but in any case, it also solves the problem of having and not having it.

Therefore, Zhaoxin and Loongson in later generations are the two pillars of the domestic computer CPU processor industry.

……

Medico, Silicon Valley, Intel President's Office.

Paul Odes was furious when he saw the news in today's newspaper that Weisheng Electronics on the other side of Daxiawan Island was going to Rongcheng, Sichuan Province, or would reach an X86 instruction set authorization with Hantang Technology!

"Damn Weisheng Electronics, you dare to defy the wind, it seems that the lesson of the year is not deep enough!"

For this Weisheng Electronics, Intel was also nervous once.

Because they acquired two companies that hold the X86 instruction set in 1999, they have obtained the production authorization of the X86 instruction set, and have the potential to become the third largest CPU manufacturing company in the world.

So at the beginning, Intel was also nervous and worried that this seemingly powerful company would launch a powerful processor, and then do it again. D counterattack incident.

Therefore, in the second year after the successful acquisition of the two companies by Weisheng Electronics, Intel Company immediately rushed to suppress it after collecting evidence.

Therefore, the processor patent scandal that entered the history of the Bay Island chip industry broke out, and Intel's lawsuit against Weisheng Electronics lasted for many years.

The outbreak of this large-scale patent lawsuit also successfully dispelled the determination of Weisheng Electronics to enter the field of general-purpose processors.

In addition to launching an X86 processor in 2001, which no one wanted, the next generation of processor research and development plans was also cancelled.

So the ending becomes the current ending, and in the end only Intel and . Processors from both companies.

The next generation of Weisheng Electronics' processors has not been launched, and it has been stranded for nearly 45 years.

Of course, why Weisheng Electronics, which was obviously not very strong at the beginning, was able to acquire two companies with X86 instruction set licenses at the same time may not be so simple.

Maybe Intel deliberately let Weisheng Electronics buy those two companies, and then wait for the matter to be completed and then play a game of unloading and killing donkeys......

But no matter what happened back then, it is no longer possible to study it, and this is not what Lin Xuan cares about.

Lin Xuan is concerned about the fact that Weisheng Electronics still holds the X86 instruction set.

"This Weisheng Electronics dares to defy the wind, no!

They must be dealt a devastating blow. ”

I have to say that Weisheng Electronics's trip to Rongcheng, Sichuan Province, has deeply angered Paul Odes, the president of Intel, and made him angry with Weisheng Electronics.

Therefore, at this time, the two husband and wife bosses of Weisheng Electronics may not know that their behavior of going to Rongcheng, Sichuan Province, has ushered in a devastating anger blow for them.

However, judging from the fact that they are willing to take great risks to go to Rongcheng in Sichuan Province despite the three threats of "never allowed".

They may have been prepared in their hearts, but of course, they may not know these things, and they don't know the contradiction between Hantang Technology and Paul Odeus.

However, no one knows exactly what the two couples think, but that doesn't stop Paul Odes from picking up the phone.

The other side of the phone is an important pillar of Weisheng Electronics' chipset business. A phone call between the President of Company D and the President of Visoft Systems, Bill Gai Ci.

Paul Odez called Bill Gei's phone number, but he even dialed. The phone call of the president of Company D is enough to surprise people.
