Chapter 367: Cobalt Element

Hearing this, the old man, the representative of the Locksied Company, smiled and slowly turned his head to look at the new president of Intel, Pat Singer, and said with a smile:

"I wonder if there's any good news for Intel?"

"Our Intel's second-generation Core processors have been developed and will be released soon!"

Pat Singh, the new president of Intel, said a word that was enough to make Lin Xuan's secretary Chen He's heart tremble.

First, the high-end mobile phone was hit by Pingguo's powerful mobile phone, and then Moto Luola will also release their new mobile phone chip platform using 14nm process technology.

Now even in the computer market, Intel is releasing their second-generation Core processors!

Hantang Technology is in danger!

A full-scale competition from mobile phones to computers is about to begin!

And this competition is Hantang Technology against the entire Meidi mobile phone industry and computer industry!

Once Hantang Technology competes unfavorably with these two major companies, Hantang Technology will lose 90% of its cash source.

At that time, Hantang Technology may not collapse immediately with its huge volume, but it will also collapse!

So Hantang Technology is in danger!

At this time, Patsinger did not stop his words, only to see him smile and speak:

"Ladies and gentlemen, Hantang Technology is a powerful enemy, and it is also a disaster for our Meidi technology enterprises.

I don't think normal business competition alone is enough to make Hantang Technology collapse, and there is a weakness in Hantang Technology that I discovered.

I think that once this weakness is attacked, Hanergy Technology will face a huge bankruptcy crisis, even if it will not be wiped out because of this! ”

"Oh?!"

Hearing the words of the new president of Intel, Pat Singh, the people at the scene turned their curious eyes to him.

Among the curious people naturally include Steve Jobs, the president of Pingguo Company, and Jia Sanjie, the new president of Moto Luola.

In this regard, the corners of the mouth of the new president of Intel Corporation, Pat Singh, curled slightly, and then slowly said a term that made people slightly stunned.

"Cobalt metal."

"Cobalt?"

The people at the scene showed curious expressions, but at this time, the major technology companies related to chips showed expressions of sudden realization.

Because as Patsinger mentioned the cobalt metal thing, they found that the cobalt metal thing is indeed the weakness of Hantang Technology!

Because Hantang Technology's 45-nanometer chip uses cobalt interconnection technology!

Before Hantang Technology launched the cobalt interconnection technology, cobalt has been used in the manufacture of various special alloys.

Among them, because those alloys are only doped, and the amount of doping is not much, the price of cobalt, a rare metal, is not expensive.

However, the price and mining volume of this rare element have changed a lot recently, because Hantang Technology's chips use a large number of rare element metals, cobalt.

Therefore, the mining volume of cobalt metal has increased significantly, and along with the increase in mining volume, the price of cobalt, a rare metal, is also rising.

So far, the price of cobalt, a rare metal, has increased by a full 30% compared to before!

At this time, the new president of Intel, Pat Singh, mentioned cobalt, a rare metal, and then thought of the use of cobalt interconnection technology in the CPU of Hantang Technology.

At this time, people were naturally bright-eyed, and they found that as long as the price of cobalt was moved, Hantang Technology could not make a single chip!

"Mr. Patsinger is really sharp-eyed, and he has grasped their weaknesses at once, amazing!"

At this time, Jia Sanjie, the new president of Moto Gongla, praised with a smile.

In this regard, the old man on the side of the representative of the Locksied Company couldn't help but praise:

"It is indeed keen-eyed, cobalt, a rare element, is rare in the world, and as long as there is a slight turmoil, the price of cobalt can skyrocket globally!

I have to say that Mr. Pat Singh is really powerful, and he caught the Achilles heel of Hantang Technology at once.

Although this weakness will not make Hantang Technology collapse immediately, it is enough for Hantang Technology to make them no longer able to use cobalt interconnection technology to create multi-core processors! ”

"That's right, cobalt is already scarce, as long as we all purchase a little cobalt for reserves, it can make the price of cobalt soar hundreds of times!"

The company representatives at the scene agreed with the words of the old man of the Locksied Company, and obviously they agreed with this way of purchasing cobalt to suppress Hantang Technology.

After all, they are only collectively purchasing a little cobalt to use for reserves, and there is no loss in this behavior.

After all, cobalt is a rare metal that is scarce in the world, and the purchase of a little bit is a little less, and its natural value is there.

So to a certain extent, the reserve value of cobalt is not weaker than that of gold.

As the representatives of the major companies spoke their words of approval, the major companies jointly purchased cobalt for reserves to increase the price of this rare metal!

Hantang Technology's chips are in danger, and the 45nm process technology can't beat other people's 14nm processors.

Previously, Hantang Technology's CPU processor could beat the 14nm Core processor, and it was completely more cores to beat the Core processor.

But now the price of cobalt is about to rise, and the cobalt interconnection technology has suffered a blow, which will undoubtedly deeply shake the computer CPU and mobile phone chips of Hantang Technology!

It can be said that with the decision to raise the price of cobalt at this meeting, the price of cobalt as a metal has risen sharply.

Hantang Technology may not be as profitable as it is to buy cobalt metal in the future!

But at this time, Lin Xuan didn't know this, and he didn't know that there was a meeting going on here that was not good for him.

In this meeting, in addition to Pingguo, Motoluola, and Intel jointly releasing their products, while cracking down on the business of Hantang Technology and deciding to jointly purchase cobalt, a metal, to raise the price of cobalt.

Major companies have also reached a resolution not to cooperate with Hantang Technology!

In this resolution, they reached a resolution that they would never cooperate with Hantang Technology and not sell various high-precision equipment products and special materials to Hantang Technology.

After this meeting, the major companies of the entire Meditech country will not sell any high-tech materials or even metals and equipment to Hantang Technology.

After this resolution, Hantang Technology has become an island in the global market, and all high-tech enterprises in Meidi will refuse to cooperate with Hantang Technology!

Among them, photoresist, chemical materials used in chip production and other chip production materials will also be out of stock on the spot after this resolution!

So a crackdown more severe than ever has taken shape!

At this time, the suppression suffered by Hantang Technology may be several times more cruel than the suppression suffered by Guowei technology companies in the previous life!

Although at this time, various foreign countries did not prohibit Hantang Technology's products from entering their national markets.

But after this meeting, all major domestic companies in Meditech cannot cooperate with Hantang Technology, and cannot sell their products, equipment, materials, and technologies to Hantang Technology.

In this case, although Hantang Technology lives on the earth, it is actually isolated from the earth!

After all, no one dares to offend the giants of Huaer Street in Medita, and since Hantang Technology has become the target of Huaer Street, who dares to cooperate with Hantang Technology at this time? !

Therefore, although the knife called "Can't Cooperate" can't make Hantang Technology die immediately, it can make Hantang Technology gradually weaken!

After all, a company can't produce everything by itself, although domestic companies can purchase corresponding parts and accessories, but domestic things are usually at the world's third-rate level.

In this case, it is naturally very difficult for Hantang Technology to develop, after all, Hantang Technology is only a technology company, and it is not a company that can solve everything by itself.

For example, Hantang mobile phones, high-end screens or some material components of Hantang mobile phones, Hantang Technology is actually not 100% self-produced.

In this case, it is impossible to purchase high-tech materials and accessories led by the American Empire, and can only use domestic third- and fourth-rate materials and accessories, which is naturally a very serious blow to Hantang science and technology products.

Therefore, Hantang Technology is in danger!

……

The following day, 6 April 2006.

Hantang Technology Headquarters.

"Boss, it's not good."

Chen He knocked on the door of the two rooms with a panicked face.
