And why did Wei Soft do this?

The most fundamental reason is that the manufacturers of mobile phone platforms are too fierce, and they are attacking wildly in the field of laptops, desktop computers, and servers.

If Wei Soft doesn't change and doesn't try to attack the mobile terminal, then it will be the Wei Soft system that will be eliminated!

"In that case, then we will go all out to acquire SIS and develop the Dawning computer multimedia instruction set."

Ni Guangnan said a word with a smile and left slowly, while Lin Chen also continued to be busy with his affairs.

As a result, in the following time, the negotiations between Sugon R&D Center and Weisheng Electronics fell into a stalemate, but the negotiations between Sugon R&D Center and Wandao SIS Company were relatively smooth.

On July 3, 2004, Sugon R&D Center officially reached an agreement with SIS.

Sugon used $380 million in cash to win the company's CPU business, graphics card business, and chip business.

The reason why the price is so cheap is because their CPU business does not even have an X86 processor R&D team, but only has the authorization of the X86 instruction set.

The only thing they have assets is the graphics card and chipset business, but their graphics cards and chipsets are quite average in the world, and they only serve as a background board.

Not to mention that compared with companies such as Asus, MSI, ATI, and Invida, even Weisheng Electronics can't compare, and in this case, the price of their CPU, graphics card, and chipset business naturally can't be raised.

Sugon spent $380 million to win the CPU, graphics card, and chipset business of Bay Island SIS, which caused an uproar around the world after the news broke.

Among them, the media of Bay Island and Daxia reported this matter in the form of headlines, and the headlines were the news of the rise of domestic chips and the official entry of Shuguang into the computer industry!

After the news came out, Intel President Barrett's face was very stinky, and he lamented in his heart that there was really no way to prevent Shuguang Technology from entering the X86 processor world.

Of course, at the same time, Chen Wenqi, the head of Wandao Weisheng Electronics, felt a little empty in his heart.

After all, Sugon 380 million has already bought SIS's CPU, graphics card, and chipset business, and they will naturally not purchase Weisheng Electronics' CPU and graphics card business, at least they will not continue to give high prices.

Thinking that Weisheng Electronics will face Shuguang Technology at the same time in the future. D Intel, these three strong enemies.

Chen Wenqi regretted that he raised the price and insisted on quoting a high price after obtaining the three major authorizations, allowing Sugon to bear the loss of their CPU and graphics card business for many years.

If he hadn't raised the price at the beginning, would he have been able to sell the CPU and graphics card divisions that had been burning for several years?

If you didn't stick to the bottom line of $2 billion, but took a step back and was willing to sell the CPU and graphics card business at a loss, would it be a different scenery at this time?

However, the final outcome has already appeared, and it is useless to think about another future at this time.

After all, Sugon has already bought the CPU, graphics card, and chipset business of Wandao SIS, and will not continue to spend high prices to buy their CPU and graphics card business of Weisheng Electronics.

Thinking of this, although Chen Wenqi felt a little melancholy, he could only calmly put down this matter, and was ready to spend a large amount of money to develop a new processor.

However, the facts told him to think too much, because within a few days, Chen Wenqi received a shocking bad news.

On July 5, 2004, Weisheng Electronics received a contract liquidated damages of $10 million in its corporate account, and then Weisheng Electronics also received a notice from Intel to tear up the contract.

Obviously, Intel directly refused to fulfill the technology patent licensing contract they had promised.

In other words, Intel refuses to license the SSE3 instruction set and the hyper-threading technology to Weisheng Electronics as promised in the contract!

You have to know this result, Chen Wenqi was stupid on the spot!

Although Chen Wenqi received the news of Sugon's acquisition of SIS, he actually had a faint premonition in his heart.

But I didn't expect Intel to be so simply willing to pay 10 million contract liquidated damages, rather than to provide them with SSE3 instruction set authorization and hyper-threading technology authorization.

And the consequence of this behavior is that they Weisheng Electronics have been pitted!

Although Weisheng Electronics has already gained. With the authorization of Company D's X86-64-bit processor architecture, Weisheng Electronics can officially develop and produce 64-bit X86 processors.

But the problem is that this authorization alone is not really much of a help to Weisheng Electronics, and it is almost equivalent to standing still.

Because now both . D or Intel's X86 processor, which of them is not a 64-bit X86 processor?

Weisheng Electronics obtained the authorization of the X86-64-bit processor architecture, but it only regained the foundation of standing with them, but whether they can stand together or win others is another matter.

Therefore, without SSE3 instruction set authorization and hyper-threading technology authorization, Weisheng Electronics' X86 processor will not be able to win at all.

Therefore, although Weisheng Electronics has obtained the authorization of X86-64-bit processor architecture, it is not of much practical help and has no practical effect, and the market share is estimated to be between 0.2% ~ 0.5%.

Thinking about this joint, Chen Wenqi, the head of Weisheng Electronics, was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and he gritted his teeth with hatred for Berret, the head of Intel.

According to later grapevine, Chen Wenqi, the head of Weisheng Electronics, scolded "despicable villain!" "Shameless!" "Damn Barrett Ann dare to bully me!" It took more than ten minutes for him to calm down.

But after the calm, you have to face the cruel reality, and anger and swearing will not solve anything.

After all, he Chen Wenqi can scold Lin Chen, the head of Dawning Technology, and Barrett, the president of Intel, just by mouth.

So Chen Wenqi, who calmed down, began to face the cruel reality.

However, I think that in the future, Weisheng CPU will continue to maintain that sad and shameful market share.

Thinking that in the future, the CPU business will continue to frantically devour the profits of Weisheng Electronics and drag Weisheng Electronics to the quagmire of the abyss.

Chen Wenqi took a deep breath and made a crazy decision, which is the bottom line of Weisheng Electronics' quotation to reduce the CPU and graphics card business!

Naintle would rather pay 10 million liquidated damages than sell them the remaining two patent licenses, and not give them the opportunity to struggle to rise.

Then don't blame him for Weisheng Electronics's ruthless lowering of the bottom line of the quotation and selling Weisheng's CPU and graphics card business to invest in the enemy, as for whether it can be sold, Chen Wenqi is still confident.

Because although the Sugon R&D Center has acquired the CPU, graphics card, and chipset business of Wandao SIS Company, there are actually many CPU technology patents that the Sugon R&D Center has not obtained.

After all, in addition to the X86 instruction set, an X86 processor has many other technical patent licensing, and Chen Wenqi believes that Sugon R&D Center should be interested in those technology patent licensing. (End of chapter)
