"You're too cunning. ”

In the villa, when Chen Jing and Qin Si listened to the meeting between Su Yuanshan and Andy Grove, they came to say this almost at the same time.

"The main thing is to know oneself and the other, these old-school elites are still very face-saving. ”

Su Yuanshan crossed his legs on the coffee table, enjoying the difficulty of relaxation.

When meeting with Andy, he not only explained all the ideas of the USB bus, but even wanted to tell Andy all the technical indicators on the spot - which directly pushed Andy into a corner.

Either Intel pinched its nose and added it, or it didn't hear it.

As for Intel itself pulling Microsoft to build a small group - unless Intel can find a suitable expansion bus in addition to USB and FireWire, no one will dare to use the USB solution to start anew.

Even if it's not theft, it's not even infringement.

That's a scandal, and in the tech world, it's a terrible scandal.

Su Yuanshan looked at the time and got up from the sofa: "Let's go, two eldest sisters, I invite you to eat at the Chinese restaurant recommended by Mr. Gates!"

"Not waiting for your sister-in-law?"

"Sister-in-law and Senior Brother Chen, they are too busy, so I won't bother them. Su Yuanshan stretched his waist and said with a wry smile: "It's just quiet today, and I'll be busy again tomorrow." ”

Chen Jing and Qin Siyi looked at each other, and both of them laughed.

Because Xinghai is rooted in Silicon Valley, it is a major domestic enterprise and even government agencies, as long as they come to Silicon Valley to investigate, they will take time to come and have a look.

It's not that everyone wants to come and eat and drink.

Although Xinghai is registered in Silicon Valley, and the current CEO is also a serious Westerner, in the eyes of everyone in China, Xinghai was founded by Su Yuanshan who sent Xi Xiaoding and a few local students.

Abroad, that's your own people.

Not to mention that half of it is Chinese and international students, and they can communicate in Chinese without barriers.

In the face of domestic visitors, Xinghai will of course help and take care of them as much as possible. But there are more receptions...... It's always a bit of a hassle.

In particular, Chen Haoming and Yang Yiwen and others jokingly said that Xinghai has now become the "silicon office" of domestic enterprises.

......

The next day, Xinghai sent two buses to the airport to meet the domestic members who were going to come to Silicon Valley after participating in the exhibition.

In addition to Qin Weimin and Jiang Wanchao, these people also have Qiu Bojun of Jinshan and Shi Dazhu of Giant - they all want to come to Silicon Valley to investigate and see if they can open up a second "battlefield".

In addition, there are inspection teams composed of Zhongxin, Inspur, Huawei and other enterprises and domestic communication and computer-related departments.

Well, there are also some leaders of the provincial science and technology bureau - they came to invite major enterprises to participate in the software exhibition.

So much so that it took half an hour just to meet and greet all the guests on the bus.

This was followed by a meal, a visit, and even a guided tour...... So much so that when Su Yuanshan returned to the villa in the evening, he felt more tired than staying up all night.

Fortunately, everyone in China came for a purpose, and only "bothered" Xinghai to talk about things for a day, and to investigate the investigation, Su Yuan took the time to meet Shi Dazhu and Qiu Bojun in the villa.

The focus of these two people coming to the exhibition this time is different, Qiu Bojun still wants to see the commercial software market and talents here, and Shi Dazhu came straight to the PS press conference because he recognized the game.

"Ken Kutaragi is ambitious? Also courageous? This man can do great things. Shi Yuzhu looked at the small villa and chatted with Su Yuanshan about his feelings about Kutara Mujian: "But I always feel it? He has an indescribable sense of arrogance about domestic enterprises? Does the army always feel this way?"

Qiu Bojun was looking at the computer magazine on the table, and shook his head when he heard this: "I think it's okay?" Everyone is in their early forties, and they are still nodding their heads. ”

"Then you're wrong? It is a habit for Ni people to nod their heads and bow their waists. Shi Dazhu smiled: "Is the waist bent down?" But you can stand straight in your heart. ”

"I agree with Lao Shi. Su Yuanshan said with a smile: "But Yuanxin is okay, the semiconductor industry, Niguo still has help in the domestic market." But the gaming industry ...... Now that Ni and the West are two giants, both of them are looking to Europe? Ready to seize the European market. For domestic? It's really not very eye-catching. ”

"So there's a long way to go. Shi Dazhu sighed.

"It's okay, just stand firm and take it one step at a time. Xinghai is already developing a new display core, and once it is launched, it is no exaggeration to say that it will destroy the world. ”

Shi Dazhu was stunned: "Is it so sharp?"

"It's so sharp. Su Yuanshan smiled and nodded.

Launching GPUs directly in the 95 and 96 phases? But what is it that is not destroying the world?

You know, although there are thirty or forty large and small graphics card companies on the market now? But there are not many people who really have the ability to design 3D chips.

The current graphics giant is still SGI.

But the SGI still has the common problem of giants - they are too focused on monopolies in their own field? Just look at the pot in front of you, and don't notice that countless stoves have been set up in the distance? Even curling smoke rises.

The reason why countless players in the past life were interested in 3DFX? HAVE A SPECIAL AFFECTION FOR VOODOO? It's not that this company is awesome.

But if it weren't for the 3DFX guys, I don't know how long it would have been before 3D applications could enter the civilian world.

But now, with the intervention of Xinghai, the former VOODOO will be born one year earlier, and the GPU will be three years ahead of schedule.

- Unlike other fields, in the field of graphics cards, there is no situation where the technology is too forward and no one cares about it - there are always only applications that hardware can't catch up, and there are no applications that can't be eaten up with hardware.

Again, there's the fun thing — NVIDIA was founded at the beginning of the year.

At the beginning of its establishment, Qin Si, known as the pioneer of blind investment in Silicon Valley, poured $1 million into the two Sun-born engineers.

Then, Huang hesitated for a long time in choosing to join Yuanxin's startup team and join a friend, and finally went to NVIDIA as president and CEO with the idea of being a chicken head rather than a phoenix tail.

This kind of trivial matter was not noticed until Su Yuanshan looked through the mid-year report sent by Qin Si later, and he was so happy at that time.

But he doesn't really care about having Lao Huang's NV, after all, he already has a 3DFX team.

As long as these people are there, as long as they don't go astray, all the enemies are scum.

This is the crushing brought about by technology.

Just like the current situation in the West at home, it is sometimes very incomprehensible.

......

On the 27th, Su Yuanshan and Chen Jing saw off the domestic visitors in batches, and then embarked on a flight to Texas.

The wings slid through the clouds, and Su Yuanshan withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at the document in Chen Jing's hand.

"Don't look at the papers, take a break, and then look at me. ”

"It's not for the sake of cooperation and negotiation preparation, it's mainly for the convenience of chatting with Zhang Rujin. Chen Jing silently memorized the contents of the document without raising his head.

She even came out with a northeastern accent.

"By the way, what kind of person is Zhang Rujin?"

Su Yuanshan squinted his eyes and thought for a few seconds, until Chen Jing looked up at him, he said softly: "People with feelings." ”

Su Yuanshan looked at Chen Jing, paused and added, "It's the same as you." ”

An Siying, who was next to her, chuckled lightly and whispered, "Mr. Shan, your fart is so smooth." ”

Chen Jing bit her lip, her eyes fluttered, and she wanted to glare at Su Yuanshan, but she couldn't hold back her laughter.

"Hehe...... Su Yuanshan closed his eyes, lay on the back of the chair and sighed softly: "I really hope that the birdmen on the board of directors of Deyi are more interesting, otherwise they will ......"

"It's so difficult that you don't have confidence?" Chen Jing couldn't help frowning slightly.

Su Yuanshan shook his head: "They have always wanted us to do multiple-choice questions, but the problem is that multiple-choice questions are only done by children." ”

"The world is safe and perfect, and it lives up to its promise"

"I'm neither a child nor a monk, so why do I have to do multiple-choice questions?"

Chen Jing and An Siying were stunned for a moment, no longer ignoring the fact that there were two white uncles in the business class, the two of them covered their mouths and smiled wildly.

......

Mr. Vincenti, President of Deyi, stood at the gate to greet Su Yuanshan and his party to show respect for their close partners.

In the evening, Deyi held a small high-level cocktail party to welcome, and at the reception, Su Yuanshan also met Zhang Rujin, who returned to Deyi to report on his work.

Those who have a tacit understanding do not need to say much when they meet.

When Su Yuanshan introduced Chen Jing to Zhang Rujin, the two of them, as fellow villagers, chatted in their hometown dialect on the side. It's just that Zhang Rujin stays in the west all the year round, and even his passport is here, so he wants Chen Jing to help him "correct" his hometown dialect from time to time.

As for Su Yuanshan, he got acquainted with several members of the board of directors at the cocktail party, that is, a group of people who he was going to "talk to the crowd" tomorrow.

Of course, Westerners typically do a good job of face work, and everyone is very warm and polite to Su Yuanshan at night, although it is not flattering and sycophant, but at least it gives people the feeling that they are treating him as a "friend".

The next day, in the Deyi Cafe, the "business meeting" hosted by Vincenti was launched in a peaceful atmosphere.

......

"Mr. Su, about the market advantage you mentioned – we believe that a market of 1.3 billion people has a bright future. But we have the analysis and expectation of the mainland market here, and we don't quite agree that you can make a profit by spending more than a billion dollars to build a fab. ”

A board member named Addison pulled out a document and looked at Su Yuanshan: "And the mainland's chip demand is now in a state of saturation. ”

Su Yuanshan glanced at the document, shook his head and said, "What do you mean by saturation and the number of imports?"

Addison nodded: "You can understand that." ”

"Then I can tell you that if the import price of chips can be half cheaper, then the market can more than double. ”

Addison smiled: "Oh, Mr. Su, the price of imports is expensive because of the high taxes at customs. ”

Su Yuanshan also smiled: "That's because the tariff agreement has not been signed, and there is no such thing as letting the mainland join the GATT." ”

Addison shook his head: "...... That's not something we should be thinking about. ”

"Mr. Addison, this is not something that someone like you should say. Su Yuanshan paused: "The fate of any enterprise is inseparable from the direction of national policy - if there is no semiconductor agreement, believe it or not, the entire world's semiconductor industry will be monopolized by Ni Guo?"

No one will answer this sentence - because everyone here has experienced the crazy offensive of Japanese semiconductors in the last era.

It was an era when even Intel was forced to give up storage.

If it weren't for the FBI and IBM to carry out phishing law enforcement, thus tearing up the beginning of the semiconductor agreement, it is not certain how long it would have been desperate.

——In 82, in the face of the menacing attack of Ni Guo Semiconductor, an agent of the FBI pretended to be an IBM employee and deliberately sent 10 of IBM's 27 volumes of top-secret design materials to Hitachi Kenji Hayashi, a senior engineer.

Lin Xianzhi was quickly fooled, saying that he wanted to exchange for more information, and the FBI agents immediately got the evidence and made it public, saying that "Ni Guo enterprises stole the technology of the lighthouse country".

At the same time, Mitsubishi and Fujitsu are eager to try.

The fishing enforcement was so successful that it became known as the "Pearl Harbor Incident" of the new era. (Detailed search: "IBM Traps Japanese Spies" was written in several magazines at the time)

As a result, this allows the West to push forward with the semiconductor negotiations in a grand manner.

In 85, the lighthouse country issued extremely harsh conditions to the neon country Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), which was in charge of negotiations, requiring the lighthouse country to increase the semiconductor market in the neon country to 20%-30%, and at the same time establish a price monitoring mechanism to stop dumping in third countries.

Just like all Lao Tzu teaches his son, slapping a sweet date is an old craft.

At the same time as proposing the semiconductor agreement, the lighthouse country also signed the square agreement with the neon country.

——Different from the perception of countless people in later generations, at that time, the Plaza Agreement was not "forced" at all, but was requested by Ni Guo itself.

The Plaza Agreement, for Ni at that time, was a "sweet date".

(There is already a lot of information about what the Plaza Accord is all about, so I won't continue to water...... ）

......

Vincenti smiled and broke the silence.

"But now Niguo Semiconductor is not to be afraid, is it?"

"Yes, they can't get to the west, but they can get to the mainland. Su Yuanshan also smiled and said: "The reason why I am here is because I think Deyi is our friend." It may seem naïve, but it is. ”

What age can you say anything, Su Yuanshan has a very accurate grasp of his age advantage.

"I don't want to compromise the partnership we've built so hard to build because of a partnership with other businesses. Moreover...... As I can probably guess, your current financial situation is not very good. ”

Vincent coughed lightly.

No matter how nervous Westerners are, they don't like to hear people point their noses and say that you don't have any money now.

But what Su Yuanshan said is also true.

Under Su Yuanshan's "flickering", Deyi first spent one billion dollars to acquire 20% of Xinghai's shares, and it didn't take long for another 400 million dollars to invest in Yuanzhong EDA.

Is it distressing to spend all this money? distressed, but is it worth it?

It's not worth it!

Xinghai and Yuanzhong EDA are both high-tech star enterprises that have not yet been listed, once listed, it is too exaggerated to say that the market value will increase tenfold, but there is no problem at all if it is tripled or five.

Especially Xinghai, as the second largest shareholder, when Xinghai completed the cooperation with Sony one after another and launched a mobile phone, Deyi and his party were eager to take out loans.

Xinghai now has a cordless phone on his left hand, a mobile phone on his right hand, and a CEO who is an AT&T executive......

Anyone who has even a modicum of confidence in mobile communications will think about what a bright future this company will have.

"Therefore, in the newly established wafer fab, you can complete the cooperation in the form of technology equity without capital contribution or moving the existing production line. ”

After Su Yuanshan finished speaking, he looked at everyone.
