Chapter 332: Intel in a hurry!
……
On the other side, Medi California, Intel headquarters.
Because of the time difference in the rotation of the earth, 8 o'clock in the evening on the Great Xia side happens to be 8 o'clock in the morning in the United States, which is the official time to go to work one day.
At this time, Barrett, the president of Intel, came to his office with the joy of a new day.
"Mr. President, here's a piece of news information that you have specifically ordered to focus on."
As soon as he entered the office, Barrett was slightly stunned when he heard the secretary's words, and then Barrett's face became solemn.
Because the news information that he instructed his secretary to focus on was the news information of the Dawning R&D Center and the Dawning Technology Movement.
At this time, his secretary mentioned this matter, and there must be something big happening.
So with a solemn face, Barrett spoke:
"Show it to me."
Seeing this, the female secretary handed the newspaper to Barrett, which was none other than the Silicon Valley Daily.
Although this Silicon Valley Daily is not as well-known and influential as other newspapers such as Huanqiu Daily, Los Angeles Chicken News, and Warshengton Post.
However, in the tech world, Silicon Valley Daily is an important channel for many practitioners to learn about the news of the global tech circle.
At this time, Barrett, who took over the newspaper, was attracted by the picture in a secondary headline, because this picture was the picture of Lin Chen meeting with the president of Weisheng Electronics.
"Damn it."
Barrett, the president of Intel, who saw the picture, cursed, and then quickly watched the relevant news content.
When Intel President Barrett saw that the two sides had only just begun negotiations, the specific results were not announced.
Intel President Barrett was also relieved, fortunately there was no result, otherwise it would have been bad.
After all, although the CPU market share of Weisheng Electronics is quite embarrassing, the actual market share is about 0.2%~0.5% after relying on the full support of Wandao official service.
But it is also an indisputable fact that they are the third largest X86 processor manufacturer in the world!
Once the Sugon R&D Center acquires Weisheng Electronics, the Sugon R&D Center will become the world's third largest X86 processor manufacturer, which is quite bad news for their Intel.
Although Intel is in the X86 processor industry, and has maintained a market share of more than 80% for a long time, they should theoretically not be afraid of Dawning Technology.
But the problem is that the fist is afraid of being less strong, or a super fierce young man!
After all, the growth process of Shuguang Technology is simply unscientific to the extreme, and I dare not write like this.
If it weren't for the fact that it appeared before their eyes, then Barrett, the president of Intel, couldn't believe it was true.
But the reality is like this, it is an indisputable fact that Shuguang Technology has indeed become a brother in the global mobile phone industry in only two years from nothing!
Therefore, if you take a closer look at the company's Intel President Barrett of Dawning Technology, he is really quite vigilant about Dawning Technology.
This level of vigilance is even more than that of the second in 10,000 years. D company, after all. Although Company D has risen in recent years, the quarterly sales ratio can even reach 25% at the peak.
But after some efforts by him, he succeeded in suppressing it again. D rising trend, and they can no longer turn the tables.
Because if nothing else, at the moment they are working on a processor called Core that can hang . D Corporation.
However, it is a pity that the Core processor is a processor with a completely new architecture, and the specific launch time may be a little later.
According to the current development schedule, it will probably be completed in the second half of 2005, and then after the process of tape-out trial and error and mass production, the official launch time may not be until the beginning of 2006.
"I'm looking for Weisheng Electronics, this is a trouble, we must not put Weisheng CPU into the arms of Shuguang Technology!"
After reading the news, Intel President Barrett made a decision.
It is okay for Sugon to acquire other companies, but it must not acquire the CPU business of Weisheng Electronics, because Weisheng Electronics is the third company in the world that can produce X86 processors.
If the development progress of Sugon's R&D Center to acquire other X86 instruction sets is 30%, there are other problems to be solved after the acquisition of X86 instruction sets.
After the acquisition of Weisheng Electronics' CPU business, Sugon's progress will jump directly to 100%, and it will directly have the strength and qualification to produce X 86 processors.
Therefore, at this time, the president of Intel, Barret, really realized the importance of Weisheng Electronics, which cannot be ignored.
"I was notified of the company's high-level meeting, and I will do my best to prevent Sugon Technology's acquisition of Weisheng Electronics."
"Yes."
The secretary of Barrett, the president of Intel, agreed, and then began to make arrangements.
In this regard, Lin Chen didn't know at this time that because of his meeting with Chen Wenqi, the head of Weisheng Electronics, it caused Intel to pay so much attention to it.
To this end, Intel President Barrett also has to do everything in his power to prevent them from acquiring the CPU business of Weisheng Electronics.
However, this matter itself cannot be hidden, and Intel will understand the importance of Weisheng Electronics sooner or later, and time is only a matter of time.
In this way, with the notice of the company's high-level meeting being issued, the results of Intel's high-level meeting came out about three hours later.
As a result of this meeting, a resolution was passed to prevent Sugon R&D Center from acquiring the CPU business of Weisheng Electronics.
So at 11 o'clock in the evening in Daxia and 11 o'clock in the morning in Medico, Chen Wenqi, the head of Weisheng Electronics, who was preparing to sleep in the hotel, received an unexpected call.
"It's Mr. Barrett, which is really unexpected."
Chen Wenqi, who answered the phone, said with emotion.
Of course, at the same time, his heart also moved slightly.
Because no matter what, Intel's call this time will definitely provide a little invisible help to the negotiation of Weisheng Electronics.
"There is no way, we Intel can't tolerate the acquisition of Weisheng Electronics' CPU business by Sugon R&D Center."
Intel President Barrett is worthy of being a Westerner, and he directly pointed to the subject of the phone call when he spoke.
"Oh, there's no way if it's not acquired, we can't support it anymore."
Chen Wenqi is crying poverty to Barrett, the president of Intel.
Although I don't know what the real purpose of Barrett is calling this time, Chen Wenqi, who vaguely seems to have guessed something, still decided to cry poorer, maybe this way can get intangible benefits.
In this regard, Barrett, the president of Intel on the other side of the phone, also knew what the other party was thinking.
After scolding "damned Intre traitor" in his heart, he went on to speak:
"As long as your company stops negotiating with Dawning and promises not to consider the sale of the CPU business again.
Then Intel is willing to authorize us to use the SSE3 instruction set to Weisheng Electronics. ”
