Chapter 403 Sadness is always in the rainy season North America sanctions Xingchen Technology!
Chen Haonan, the leader of Hongxing Society, once said that there are three things that depend on walking in the world: they are cruel, loyal and have many brothers.
It sounds simple, but it is definitely not easy to truly be friends in the world. When Huawei was sanctioned by Western sanctions, it received crazy support from the people of the country, sales surged, and mobile phones were in full swing, taking half of the industry, which made all peers breathless.
At the same time, Boss Li, who is also a big shot in the industry, was poured with mineral water at the AI conference. It was very embarrassing, but the whole country was cheering, and the waterers suddenly became a national hero, and Boss Li was as embarrassed as a rat crossing the street.
Behind this huge gap is what people want. After all, in this world, everyone is responsible for what they do. They look gentle and elegant, but in fact, they are full of bad things and are full of thieves and prostitutes. They may be able to deceive for a while, but they cannot deceive for a lifetime.
Eating alone will not last long, cooperation will only lead to win-win results. Luo Jia, who upholds this belief, likes to recruit and treats all partners well, brings strength together, and forms a Chinese army in international competition.
From April to May, Star Technology Group is busy writing textbooks, not for themselves, but for all partners, as well as students and teachers in the education industry, so that everyone can understand as soon as possible and use this brand new platform.
As time comes in mid-May, major global media, partners, and related companies finally received an official invitation letter. Next Saturday, May 21, Star Technology will hold its first semiconductor and chip future developer conference.
The so-called developer conference can be simply understood as an enterprise-level gathering. Ordinary consumers will not be invited. Those who go to the scene are companies such as Unigroup, Huawei, or related media, academic experts, etc.
The reason why Xingchen Technology holds a developer conference rather than a product launch conference is very simple. Take Intel as an example. Although they produce the most powerful CPU in the world, a single CPU is actually useless.
"Son, in order to reward you with good results in this final exam, my dad will give you a cpu."
If you say that, my son will definitely roll his eyes at you. What can a CPU do? It needs to be matched with other hardware, operating systems, office software, and VPNs you need to use to log in to the H website to create a complete computer.
According to the plan, the passive components made by Star Technology will be used to produce various boards, Star photolithography machines and photoresist, which will be used for chip foundry, and Star series CPUs will be used to build various computer systems, mobile phone systems, and even super-large servers.
In short, Xingchen Technology is only responsible for core components, peripherals and surrounding areas, and still requires a huge number of supporting companies.
How many companies do we need to cooperate to support this brand new semiconductor architecture?
To be honest, even Luo Jia didn't know about this problem. He only knew that semiconductors are the longest industrial chain in the history of world industry. So far, no country has ever been able to have a complete industrial chain.
Chinese people often proudly claim that we are the only country in the world with a full industrial system. According to the United Nations Isic standards, industries are divided into 39 major categories, 121 medium categories, and 525 small categories. China is the only country that masters all categories, but some of them are classified, and we have not yet achieved global leadership.
However, if this problem is changed to the semiconductor industry, no country in the world dares to make promises because the industrial chain is too long and too complicated.
Not long ago, Neon and South Korea had a feud. Neon unilaterally announced that it would not sell fluoropolimide and hydrogen fluoride to the rod in the future. This news seems to be less important to ordinary people. It is just two types of chemical products that no one has ever heard of. If you don’t sell them, you won’t sell them. At worst, you can buy them with someone else.
However, when South Korea gets news, it goes crazy!
Without hydrogen fluoride and fluoropolyimide, their OOLED panel production lines are all about to fall into their pockets. In the long industrial chain of semiconductors, you have already had me and I and I have you. No one can do without the other. The types and quantities of products involved are even more difficult to count. Even if they are as powerful as North America, they cannot guarantee that they can create a semiconductor industry.
"I hope everyone can make the right choice." After the 14,637 invitation letter was sent, An Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "But we cannot force it. Now we are offending North America to death. Anyone who comes to attend our meeting will risk being targeted and may be targeted in future international trade."
Li Moran said optimistically: "Of course there are risks, but I think the result should not be bad. Except for those overseas companies and media, there are about 10,000 domestic supporting companies. A large part of them have become our partners in the past, and the rest should also take into account the overall situation. After all, we have never cheated on partners, and everyone knows this very well."
Luo Jia didn't say anything. He didn't feel pessimistic. It was just that the semiconductor industry cluster was too large and it was a bit troublesome. Although Xingchen Technology has hundreds of R&D bases, subsidiaries of all sizes, and millions of employees, it still couldn't support such a long front alone.
Back then, when Apple was at its peak, it would have produced a ranking of top 500 suppliers every year, including Samsung, TSMC, Foxconn, and other giants. If Chinese companies can be among them, they would have to set off firecrackers to celebrate. As for companies that are not on the top 500 suppliers, there would be more, and there are at least four or five thousand.
The semiconductor industry is hundreds of times larger than Apple. Even if StarChen Technology is just starting out, it will need more than 10,000 companies to support its upstream and downstream supply chains. With the development of its business, the number of companies and talents will be needed.
After the news spread, China was in full swing and the whole world was shocked.
The media, domestic enterprises, overseas enterprises, superior authorities, all the Double First-Class universities in the country, hundreds of scientific research institutes, all of which are combined, with more than 14,000 enterprises and institutions, and the number of people attending the meeting is expected to be at least 50,000!
Such an amazing big deal quickly attracted serious global attention!
"This time it's going to explode! That's the 80,000-people stadium in Shanghai. Many big guys are going to go. If you are not sure, how dare Xingchen Technology set up such a big formation!?"
"Is that true? Whoever goes? Is Mr. Liu who I think of?"
"Whether pot is not open to pick up, I want to have the face to go? I don't even have to think about it!"
"Whatever those grandsons do, they are serious. It is said that Xingchen Technology has created a general CPU, not x86, but based on the open source risc-v architecture."
"Domestic CPU? Xingchen Technology is awesome!"
"By the way, who can give me some information about what is this Risc-V architecture? Is it really easier to use than Intel Core?"
"Bad! Star Technology's stuff, no matter whether it is easy to use or not, just buy it without any brainstorms!"
"Although the above is a bit rough, the principle is that. If it is almost the same, it is best to support domestic semiconductors. Otherwise, not only will our generation look at the face of the West, but our son, our son, will be colonized by the Western economy for generations."
"You don't have to be too pessimistic. If Xingchen Technology takes action, it has never failed. I heard that Xingchen Technology has prepared more than CPU. SMIC uses graphene as the substrate and has an ultra-ultraviolet hybrid laser process with a process less than one nanometer. It has also been officially mass-produced!"
"Really and false!"
"Awesome! How did they solve the hardware and software compatibility problem?"
"Hehehe, have you forgotten that Xingchen Technology has always been a desktop computer system, but it has not been fully promoted yet. As for Huawei, there is also a magical tool called Ark Compilation."
There are a lot of discussions among Chinese people, but even the most optimistic Chinese people could not guess the true intention of Xingchen Technology. Everyone was confused by the news of the risc-v architecture.
But it’s no wonder that Xingchen Technology’s performance is realistic. There is really a team in Shenzhen developing a risc-v architecture and is busy every day.
It seemed that everything was going well, developing at the pace of Luo Jia's pre-expression.
However, no one expected that on June 17, when there were only four days left before the press conference, the situation suddenly took a sharp turn.
North America publicly claims that Star Technology is suspected of stealing intellectual property rights. The Risc-V architecture has been a MIT project from the beginning. The project leader David Patterson is also a North American who is a fake.
As for the risc-v architecture is an open source project, don’t forget that Android was still open source at the beginning, did Google still put Huawei on the pivotal stage at critical moments?
I think that foreign open source things can be used and there is no need to develop them by myself. This idea is really naive and cute.
Immediately after June 18, three days after the press conference, the North American Ministry of Commerce held a press conference and officially announced that it would include Xingchen Technology on the entity list and ordered Xingchen Technology to accept North American investigation unconditionally.
According to the infamous Long-arm Jurisdiction Act, companies related to Star Technology must cooperate with the North American authorities' actions. The relevant banks must immediately report Star Technology's financial data to the North American Department of Commerce. They don't care about commercial privacy or something.
As a private enterprise that is not listed, how much foundation does Xingchen Technology have, what kind of blow can withstand, and how to make it go to bankrupt Xingchen Technology are the most concerned things about the North American authorities. After all, Sun Tzu's Art of War is well said, knowing yourself and your enemy will never be defeated.
Only one day passed, and on June 19th, only two days left before Star Technology's semiconductor plan was officially implemented, North America's third set of combination punches finally completely purified the whole world.
The North American Ministry of Commerce claims that according to the preliminary investigation of Xingchen Technology, they have already mastered the evidence that Xingchen Technology has stolen North American technology. The semiconductor summit to be held in Shanghai is a shameless technology sales stolen. Any company that dares to cooperate with Xingchen Technology and uses technology from North America will be included in the entity list.
As soon as the news came out, China was in a panic! The whole world was completely exploded!
Simply put, whoever attends the Star Technology press conference will severely punish North America!
Any company that dares to cooperate with Star Technology will be driven out of the North American market and will be surrounded and suppressed by many North American allies.
The friend of Star Technology is the enemy of North America. The fierceness and viciousness of this move exceeded the expectations of the whole world. You should know that most markets in the world are controlled by the West and are enemies of North America. Not only will the North American market not be able to enter in the future, but Australia, Neon, Denmark, and even the small Luxembourg market will all be out!
Even if a giant company like Huawei is on the entity list, life is still extremely difficult, and it will almost be a disaster for other Chinese companies with weaker ability to resist strikes.
On June 21st, plum rain, even God is not good. Shanghai hasn't seen the sun for a whole week. The rain has been falling, and thick dark clouds are pressing over the city. The streets are wearing umbrellas, and the pace is rushing, and the atmosphere is as depressing as the rainy season.
The press conference was scheduled in the afternoon, but since the morning, An Ran has been staying outside the stadium, anxiously checking the electrical forecast over and over again.
All signs indicate that the rain should not stop. An Ran couldn't imagine how bleak the afternoon press conference would be. Ironically, he was afraid that the place would be too small, so he rented the 80,000-person stadium in Shanghai.
