Chapter 76 It’s so rude

"It makes sense to target us. Unexpectedly, even Yinglong chip design software has not been spared. So no matter who wants the wafer factory to produce high-end chips, they still have to use overseas software and macro modules."

When Peng Xiangqian mentioned the chip problem, Ren Yuanwei couldn't help but feel grievances about future technology.

Originally, chip design software only accounted for a very small share of the entire semiconductor market, and most of them relied on the licensing fees generated by designing high-end chips to make profits.

Now that Yinglong EDA has been dealt with in this way, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has directly withdrawn from the market.

Other chip design companies simply won't use it.

Even though its performance is better than that of overseas software.

It comes down to it.

It’s just that overseas companies have a firm grasp on manufacturing technology, so they have the final say in everything.

Fortunately, Future Technology mainly relies on the engine licensing business. Otherwise, relying solely on Yinglong's chip design software to maintain the company's operations, I am afraid that it is very likely to be on the verge of bankruptcy.

"Doesn't this just prove that the enemy is afraid of Yinglong's performance." At this time, Peng Xiangqian intervened in response.

"you are right."

Ren Yuanwei paused and continued: "However, we have directly ordered 50 million Tamron chips in advance, which is enough for us to meet the needs of the market for the time being. Later, we still have to find ways to solve the problem of domestic high-end lithography machines. Relying on others will eventually no promises."

The words just fell.

Then he opened his mouth and asked Peng Qianqian a question.

"correct."

"How is the situation at the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"

"Dean Yang personally visited Binjiang City last month and has officially reached a cooperation with Future Technology. The artificial intelligence assistant developed by Future Technology will be used in the technological upgrade of lithography machines."

“I just don’t know how long it will take to see results.”

Faced with Ren Yuanwei's inquiry, Peng Xiangqian did not dare to hesitate and quickly introduced Yang Senping's affairs in detail.

And he did not forget to compliment after saying: "If Tamron chips are only used in high-end flagship phones, 50 million chips can indeed sustain us for a long time. Speaking of which, when Director Ren made this decision, the board of directors Many people raised objections.”

It is the first batch of new chips completed using domestic chip design software to be directly produced in such a large quantity without being tested by the market and users. It is probably the only one in the entire industry.

After all, if sales are not good by then, everything will be lost.

But it turns out.

Ren Yuanwei's decisiveness is correct.

"Okay, I'll do the hard work for you this time. Let's set off as soon as we're ready."

"It's Director Ren."

After finally hearing Ren Yuanwei's words, Peng Xiangqian stopped lingering too much.

After nodding in response, he turned and left.

He planned to take the nearest flight directly to Binjiang City after handing over the work at hand.

Who knows that the current operating system is related to whether the new flagship machine can be successfully launched, and it cannot be underestimated.

Let’s talk about future technology.

With Xingtong, an intelligent assistant that integrates information from the entire network at all times, Xu Lei knew about this troublesome matter before anyone else in the country.

The whole mood can only be described in two words.

accurate.

You must know that the core program of Yinglong chip design software was also typed out by his hands.

Now we have just designed a mobile phone chip, but before it has time to reflect its own value, it has been forcibly banned.

Obviously, he can't play tricks behind the scenes.

I can only say that these overseas colleagues are really rude.

Regardless of whether any company is willing to use Yinglong EDA, even if the value it creates is zero, Xu Lei will not worry about it.

But you can’t just block your account.

As this incident spread rapidly on the Internet, Lu Hongbo, Liang Fuxing, Zhang Xia and Hange, and even Fang Yuan and Song Jie from Huanxing Studio all came to Xu Lei's office.

I want to discuss how the company will handle this matter as soon as possible.

"Mr. Xu, although the company does not rely on Yinglong EDA to make money, it will still have a considerable impact on the company's image."

"We should respond."

Compared to the usually crowded office at this moment, after a short silence, Zhang Xia finally took the lead in provoking the topic and explaining the powerful relationship.

The words just fell.

Others immediately expressed their opinions.

"Warwick has just expressed its position and emphasized in the announcement that this matter will not affect them, and the new flagship phone will be released as normal."

"This time overseas parties are targeting us so much. It seems that the previous success of the Phantom Star Engine has attracted their attention."

"It's really abominable that they actually use this method to prevent our development in the field of chip design software."

"Mr. Xu, Yinglong EDA is a product that can bring huge progress to the industry. We cannot let its value be sealed away like this." After listening to the words of others, Liang Fuxing shouted not to be outdone.

As for Lu Hongbo, who is in charge of the Magic Star engine business, he has other concerns.

While the others were silent for the time being, he immediately asked: "Mr. Xu, will our Phantom Star engine also become a target of the other party?"

Now that the company is encountering something like this, it is actually equivalent to being actively provoked by a competitor.

No matter what decision you make, you must respond, otherwise it will inevitably leave the impression that someone is easy to bully.

In fact, when Xu Lei learned about this incident, he already had a plan in mind.

The Magic Star Engine now occupies more than 90% of the global market, and covers many industries such as games, animation, film and television. If they take action against the Magic Star Engine, it will only affect them.

After all, because of the existence of the Phantom Star engine, game animation, film and television have been raised to a new level.

If relevant companies want to ensure the survival of their own products, they must rely on the Magic Star Engine, otherwise they will quickly be taken away by competitors.

But as the saying goes, it is disrespectful to reciprocate. Since overseas companies can ban the development of Yinglong chip design software, Future Technology can also stop the Magic Star Engine's services to companies in the United States.

Although this will reduce the company's revenue, Xu Lei thinks it is well worth it.

It is considered an exchange of equal value.

If I feel uncomfortable, I will definitely cause trouble for others.

After thinking about this clearly, Xu Lei finally broke his silence and announced in front of everyone present: "Huanxing Engine has issued a global announcement and will stop providing service support to companies in the United States."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was surprised. It seemed that they did not expect Xu Lei to be so decisive.

Even if it means sacrificing part of the company's profits, we must fight back.

However, everyone was surprised, but in the end they did not raise any objections.

Because each of them knows Xu Lei's character very well, the decisions will never be changed easily, especially in this situation.

What they have to do as subordinates is to cooperate with the boss in implementing this decision and let others know that future technology is by no means a soft persimmon, and everyone must consider the consequences before making any mistakes.
