Li Yunhai and Professor Ni entertained media reporters.

The reporters asked a variety of questions, and most of them had nothing to do with the profession, and they were most interested not in how much the Longteng chip was better than its peers, but more worried about sales than Li Yunhai.

Ask questions like this: "Mr. Li, you have formulated a standard for a chip, rewritten the architecture of the chip, and invested a lot of money, aren't you afraid that there will be no sales?" ”

There is also such a question: "Mr. Li, what do you do to compete with the old chip manufacturers?" Now the global chip market is almost all occupied by Intel and AMD. How much market share do you think your chips can have? ”

These gossip and backstabbing questions are obviously secretly belittling the chips of Sihai Group.

Li Yunhai would reply: "The times are developing, and science is progressing. X64 will definitely replace X86, this is not the choice of consumers, nor the choice of the market, but the choice of the times! Let's wait and see! ”

Consumers and the market do not have the right to choose, and they accept what capital offers to them.

The capitalists say that you can only drink milk for five dollars a bottle, and if the milk is less than that, they would rather throw it away than sell it to you at a low price. So we really only had to drink five dollars a bottle of milk.

In the field of chips, the superior performance of the X64 architecture will gradually be highlighted, and it will eventually become the king of installations.

Although Li Yunhai knows the trend, he is also worried that his X64 architecture cannot become the industry standard and cannot occupy the market as soon as possible.

Sihai Group can successfully develop X64, and other peers may also succeed.

What if competitors abandon Sihai Group's X64 and start anew, re-establish new standards, and perfectly bypass Sihai Group's patented technology?

It's like after the invention of VCD in China, foreigners quickly created DVD, and used a different set of standards to defeat VCD and replace VCD.

This is also the most customary means of capital, and it is precisely the most effective means.

Li Yunhai bypassed X86 and switched to X64, in fact, this method was also used.

He wants to let his X64 occupy the market before his peers develop it!

Journalists are asking questions.

Li Yunhai didn't want to delay too much time, and after coping with it, he raised his hand and hugged his fist, saying thank you for coming, and please say a few kind words in the report.

A male reporter snorted coldly: "Mr. Li, our reporter's duty is to report truthfully, why do you want to speak for you?" Are you trying to buy good news? ”

Li Yunhai was stunned.

He was just a very ordinary polite remark, and it didn't mean anything, but I didn't expect this reporter to hold on.

Fortunately, he didn't prepare red envelopes for these reporters, otherwise it would have been unclear.

If the reporter seizes this handle, reports indiscriminately, and says that Sihai Group uses money to buy praise, wouldn't it be wronged?

Li Yunhai's sharp eyes slowly swept over the reporter and said, "Your truthful reporting is the greatest help to us!" ”

The male reporter said sarcastically: "Report truthfully? That's interesting, let's write: Sihai Group's chips, the market share is zero? That's exactly what happened! Hahaha! ”

Li Yunhai said lightly: "The readers of your newspaper are all cultural people, and their level is not so incompetent!" They know that our chips have just been launched, where does the market share come from? Want to fool or even fool the reader? I guess you'll have a hard time getting there. You are not the only media on the scene, there are so many media reporters who report on our chips, and I believe that the vast majority of journalists on the scene are the real uncrowned kings who can report our chips fairly and objectively. Thank you! ”

The male reporter was speechless.

Other reporters have expressed their attitudes: "Mr. Li, we will definitely report your chips truthfully and fairly." We all hope that domestic chips will rise, come on! ”

Li Yunhai clasped his hands into fists and said thank you.

The reporters slowly dispersed.

Su Hong brought the water over and handed it to Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai drank the water in the cup in one sip of water.

Professor Ni drank water and said, "There are always people who can't see us!" Mr. Li, we want to promote Longteng chips, but I'm afraid there is still a long way to go. ”

As long as there is competition, there will always be peers who will make it bad.

Therefore, there will definitely be people who will jump out and sing the opposite tune and sing the chips of Sihai Group.

Li Yunhai didn't care about all this.

He is ready to fight with people and with his peers.

Li Yunhai cares more about whether Sihai Group's products can be recognized by consumers and the market.

The X64 chip is definitely the trend of the times, there is no doubt about it.

But can this trend be grasped by Sihai Group?

What Li Yunhai yearns for is not only the domestic market, but he also wants to win the global market! Today's Canton Fair is a test of the waters.

The launch of any product will be slandered, criticized and obstructed by peers.

The emergence of Longteng chips has moved the vested interests of many people.

If Li Yunhai wants to share a piece of cake, he has to snatch a piece from someone else, how can others allow him to take it easily?

But no matter how bumpy the road ahead is, Li Yunhai will unswervingly go to the end.

Just as he was thinking, Shen Xiulan's shouting came.

"A sea of clouds! Clouds! Shen Xiulan smiled happily, "We signed a big order!" Longteng computer, 10,000 units! ”

"Good! That's great! Li Yunhai's eyes lit up and asked, "Have you explained it to the customer?" Our Longteng computer uses Longteng CPU. ”

Shen Xiulan handed the contract she had just signed to Li Yunhai: "Of course, you have to make it clear, he said that you can even make chips, it must be a very good computer company, equivalent to a combination of Intel and IBM, he said that he is very optimistic about our development prospects." ”

Li Yunhai smiled with satisfaction, someone praised his company, which made him happier than praising himself.

One hero and three gangs, Sihai Group to succeed, need the sincere cooperation of dealers and agents around the world in order to achieve great causes.

After the launch of the X64 chip this time, Li Yunhai talked on the phone with big dealers such as Hebrew, Mike, James, Mark, and Helen alone, and personally explained to them the benefits of the new chip.

Hebrew and others expressed optimism about this chip and are willing to continue to cooperate. But they didn't buy tens of thousands of units, but only 1,000 units, saying that they would try it.

The attitude of these partners really made Li Yunhai uneasy.

Although it is reasonable to take fewer new products, he is still worried that dealers will resist the new chips.

Now someone finally recognized this new chip, and bought 10,000 Longteng PCs at once!

The wholesale price of a Longteng PC is $3,999 per unit.

The price has not changed, but the chip has been replaced with the X64 architecture of the Dragon, and the company's profitability has increased significantly, while the performance has not decreased, but has also increased by 30%.

10,000 computers, a total price of $39.99 million!

This can be regarded as a good start to this Canton Fair!

Li Yunhai stretched out his thumb to Shen Xiulan and praised her a few words.

Shen Xiulan pursed her lips and smiled, the happiest moment in her life was every time she received an order for the company, and then was praised by Li Yunhai.

That's why she's striving for a higher degree and learning more foreign languages.

Everyone wants to be recognized by others, especially someone. Some people spend their lives trying to get their father's approval, and some people want to prove it to someone!

And Shen Xiulan wants to get Li Yunhai's affirmation the most.

Because in the past love life, Shen Xiulan was a loser, and she lost to Lin Zhi.

So she really wants to prove that she is stronger and better than Linzhi.

In addition to her family background, she can't be compared with Lin Zhi, Shen Xiulan worked hard to prove that she was better than Lin Zhi everywhere and was more suitable for Li Yunhai.

She gave birth to a son, but Lin Zhi gave birth to two daughters in a row. In this matter, although Shen Xiulan didn't say anything, she was still quite proud in her heart.

Every time she participates in an exhibition, Shen Xiulan receives more orders than Lin Zhi, which is also what she is most proud of.

Li Yunfang was receiving a foreign business team, and he didn't know what he was talking about, so he walked over and said to Li Yunhai: "Brother, their request is a little strange. ”

"Requirements? What kind of requirements? ”

"Brother, they said they wanted to customize a batch of chips."

"What kind of chips are customized? This is a normal demand, what's so strange? We produce chips, but we also sell individual chips. ”

"No, brother, I doubt that they want to use these chips to make munitions!"

"Oh!"

Li Yunhai groaned slightly.

Shen Xiulan looked at the foreign businessmen and said in a low voice: "Yunhai, we sell chips, what do they use them for!" Just like a merchant who sells kitchen knives, kitchen knives were originally used to cut vegetables, but if someone uses them to cut people, then the merchant who sells knives can't be blamed, right? ”

Li Yunhai smiled with emotion and said, "That's what I said in theory, and that's also true in theory. But if one day, when we know that they have slaughtered tens of thousands of living beings with weapons made from our chips, will we be at ease? ”

Li Yunfang kept nodding: "I think so too." ”

Li Yunhai waved his hand and said, "That's not right! What kind of weapon needs such a high-end chip? ”

"Brother, what they want is a custom chip, and the precision of the chip is not high, and the stability of the chip is extremely high. That's why I suspect that they customized these chips, most likely because they wanted to make weapons. I said I can't be the master, and I want to ask you. Li Yunfang stated the reason for her suspicions.

Shen Xiulan said: "I'll go and meet them!" ”

Li Yunhai nodded in agreement.

Shen Xiulan stepped forward and chatted with those people.

Civilian chips cost $1,000 each, which is extremely profitable, and is not even lower than selling complete products.

And the price of military chips is higher.

In terms of manufacturing process, military chips are even inferior to ordinary chip manufacturing processes on the market. However, there is a very big gap between them in price, and the highest price of an ordinary chip on the market is only more than 10,000 yuan. But a military chip can sell for more than $200,000 at most.

To put it simply, there is an essential difference between commercial chips and military chips, and they cannot be compared. The so-called high-end chips on the market cannot be used in military equipment, and the difference between the two is too great in terms of performance.

On the consumer side, consumers are concerned about specific needs in terms of performance, power consumption, and functionality.

In contrast, the chips used in the military do not have high requirements for chips, and the most important thing is stability and anti-interference capabilities. Because the environment in which military equipment is used is generally harsh, the requirements in this regard are bound to be stricter.

In the use scenarios of military chips, there are deserts, snow-capped mountains, and the bottom of the sea, and even may appear in outer space and alien planets, so the stability and anti-interference requirements of the chip are higher, and more advanced packaging processes are required.

For example, the U.S. F22 fighter used 138nm chips at the beginning, and later changed to 45nm. Later, the chip used in the main fighter F35 of the United States was only a 98nm process chip.

But the price of these chips will be much more expensive than commercial chips.

These chips need to be designed and manufactured separately.

The design ability of chips, like manufacturing capabilities, tests the comprehensive strength of a chip manufacturer.

Driven by huge profits, it is not impossible to help people customize chips.

Li Yunhai is not the only person in the world who has lithography machines and chip manufacturing capabilities.

If Li Yunhai doesn't do it, others will do it.

Shen Xiulan's thoughts coincided with Li Yunhai.

She said to the foreign businessmen: "Hello, sir, do you want to customize the chip?" We can customize. ”

A tall and thin foreign businessman said, "Great! You can build your own lithography machine, and you can produce your own chips, and I believe you will definitely be able to make the chips we need. ”

Shen Xiulan asked, "Excuse me, do you need us to help design your chip?" Or have you already designed it and just need us to do the OEM production? The price of the two is not the same. ”

The tall and thin man said, "Oh, we need your help with the design, and we'll tell you what you want." It doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive, the most important thing is that you can design it. ”

Shen Xiulan is a person who knows how to bargain, and knows that the initiative is now in her own hands, so she said: "Sir, if we need to design chips, the price will be very expensive." The exact price depends on what kind of design you want and how many chips you buy. ”

The tall and thin man said indifferently: "As long as you can design it, the price is not a problem!" ”

It was the first time Shen Xiulan had met such a person and had such a negotiation.

But this did not bother her, she raised the price, and said: "$200,000 a piece, the total price starts at $20 million to pre-order." You order ten chips, it's also $20 million, and a hundred chips are $20 million! ”

The thin and tall man discussed a few words with the people around him, and said generously: "Yes, 20 million is 20 million." If we can accept it, then we will order a hundred chips. ”

Shen Xiulan quickly negotiated with the other party and sold 100 custom chips to the other party at a price of $200,000 per piece.

The other party said that if it is easy to use, more orders will be placed in the future.

As for the specific chip design requirements, they will send someone to communicate.

100 custom chips worth $20 million!

No wonder it is said that arms are really profiteering!

However, Li Yunhai doesn't know where the other party's customized chips are used, and it may not be military products, but scientific research products, such as aerospace and the like.

Li Yunhai earns the cost of designing and manufacturing chips, and what the other party is going to do with the chips is not within his consideration.

Shen Xiulan asked a little worriedly: "Yunhai, is the price I opened too low?" Does it make sense? Does the company make any money? ”

Li Yunhai couldn't help but smile: "I thought you would offer a maximum price of tens of thousands of dollars for a chip, but I didn't expect you to directly quote $200,000 a chip, which was very unexpected to me!" ”

Shen Xiulan sighed: "Then is my offer high or low?" ”

Li Yunhai smiled happily: "Of course it's high, we must have money to make!" ”

Shen Xiulan took a long breath and signed a supply and procurement contract with the thin and tall man.

Today is the first day of the Canton Fair, and Shen Xiulan successfully won two orders, with a total turnover of 60 million US dollars, refreshing the historical achievements of Sihai Group in the Canton Fair.

When others saw it, they were naturally red-eyed, but this was an order made by Shen Xiulan with her real skills, and no matter how red she was, she could only look at it.

Shen Xiulan's success inspired everyone, and everyone cheered up, entertained foreign businessmen well, and worked hard to open bills.

What makes Li Yunhai happy is that when many foreign businessmen purchase computers, they don't care what manufacturer's spare parts are used in this computer. They only look at an overall parameter, CPU performance, memory size, hard disk size, what operating system is installed, and whether there is a mouse and keyboard as a gift.

As for who produces the CPU, memory, and hard disk, few people consider it.

In this era, computers have just become popular, even in foreign countries, laptops are a rare thing, too many people don't understand the structure inside, as long as they can use it!

The quality of foreign dealers and buyers is also uneven, many of them also belong to the nouveau riche type, do not understand a lot of computer knowledge, only know that this industry has profits to do, so they blindly follow.

The first day passed quickly.

In addition to the $60 million won by Shen Xiulan, we received more than a dozen small orders, the smallest of which was only 200 ink cartridge printers.

Shen Xiulan counted that the total turnover on the first day was 72 million US dollars!

The scene erupted in warm applause!

The battle of Sihai Group has achieved an obvious victory!

But this is just the beginning, can Longteng chip really be able to divide the world with Intel and AMD? It depends on the performance in the future.

Li Yunhai's current goal is not ambitious, as long as he can stand with the other two chips.

Intel's market share was too large, and its position as the chief chip was difficult to shake for a while.

As long as it can account for about 10% of the global market, it is enough to feed the chip sector in the four seas.

In fact, Li Yunhai came to the Canton Fair this time, mainly to promote the most advanced server.

But the new server, a new product, suffered a Waterloo, and none of it was sold.

There are still 14 days left, and Li Yunhai racked his brains to find a way to sell the server.

Once the server is sold, it opens up a whole new way to make money! (End of chapter)
