Chapter 907: Downstairs
"Director He, can we meet?" Qin Feng called ATI president He Guoyuan.
"Qin Feng?" He Guoyuan was stunned, but he still recognized Qin Feng's voice.
"Qin Feng, I made it very clear last time that I have no interest in your proposal!" He Guoyuan said helplessly.
After all, He Guoyuan is a young and promising compatriot from the motherland, but He Guoyuan still doesn't want the two sides to break up.
"I know, so I came here this time for other things! Can we meet?" Qin Feng asked.
"Then let me check the time..." He Guoyuan began to check his schedule.
"It's already noon, let's have a light lunch. I'll be downstairs in your company." Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Ah? Well, there is a Chinese restaurant on the street. The Chaoshan hot pot in this restaurant is quite good!" He Guoyuan couldn't laugh or cry.
Later, Qin Feng met He Guoyuan in this Chaoshan hot pot restaurant.
Although the middle-aged man is over fifty, he exudes a heroic spirit.
"Mr. Qin, you are so quick. It reminds me of the scene when I just created ATI more than ten years ago!" He Guoyuan sighed.
Qin Feng smiled.
"Mr. He is so complimentary. Compared with my achievements, your achievements are truly admirable. You made a desperate move, gave up your generous annual salary, and came to a foreign country to start a business. I admire you for being here today!" Qin Feng complimented.
.
Of course, this is not hypocritical, but the other person really deserves the compliment.
After the two chatted for a while, as the hot pot was served, they started to get to the point.
"Mr. He, I am here for two things. The first thing is the most important. The second thing, if you are willing to agree, then agree. If you are not willing, we will not be able to cooperate with each other!" Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Say!" He Guoyuan nodded.
"The first thing I want to do is acquire your company's CPU business department. All technical copyrights, plus corresponding technical information, if there are talents, it's best to package them together!" Qin Feng said.
"Ah?" The pissed beef balls in He Guoyuan's hand fell directly into the hot pot.
"Sorry, sorry!" He Guoyuan apologized quickly.
"Mr. He, I want everything from your company's abandoned CPU project! I don't know how much Mr. He is asking for?" Qin Feng asked.
He Guoyuan paused.
"Mr. Qin, may I know why you want this project?" He Guoyuan smiled bitterly, "Also, how did you know about it? This project is very secretive."
Qin Feng shrugged.
"Gerry from voodoo told me." Qin Feng said.
"This guy!" He Guoyuan shook his head.
He and Gray naturally knew each other. Although they were far apart, they were both in the same industry after all, so they naturally had some intersection. He once had dinner with him and had a chance chat about this matter.
After all, ati was under a lot of pressure when faced with Intel's aggressiveness. He also thought about seeking outside help. As a veteran of a chip company, Gray was also a talented person.
However, the other party has already created voodoo. So he just consulted.
"How is it? Is Mr. He willing to give up his love?" Qin Feng asked.
"Qin Feng, you should know that my CPU project has been abandoned because it is not mature enough and not cost-effective. If you buy it, you may not be able to compete with Intel." He Guoyuan said.
"I know, but my CPU has congenital defects, poor architecture, and it is difficult for me to upgrade it. So, I must seek external technical strength!" Qin Feng said seriously, "Currently, AMD is good, but obviously
It’s something I can’t get involved in. In the industry, no other company manufactures desktop CPUs, only your company.”
He Guoyuan nodded.
"If you don't talk about this first, what is the second thing you want to do?" He Guoyuan asked.
"The second thing is that I have reached an agreement with voodoo. I didn't need to talk to Mr. He originally. But I think we can definitely cooperate." Qin Feng said, "voodoo's strength lies in 3D games, but it is weak in 2D.
, plus 3D is more extreme, it is a very professional game graphics card. But for ordinary 3D scenes, voodoo’s processing is very average. It can even be said to be terrible!”
This 3D graphics card is not just for processing games.
In addition to games, there are many application scenarios for computers.
For example, 3D Max, a modeling software, also has 3D scene applications in mechanical manufacturing. Various industries have more or less needs. As for voodoo, its game performance is good, but other 3D scene applications are too poor. This is why it specializes
Being good at the game is the result.
"How do you mean cooperation?" He Guoyuan asked curiously.
"It doesn't involve equity, it's just business cooperation. Didn't voodoo put forward the concept of 1+1 crossfire? I think it can completely form the concept of crossfire between voodoo and ati graphics cards. Between the two parties, your company provides ordinary 3D graphics cards, and
voodoo can provide professional game rendering." Qin Feng said.
"But this way, the price is too expensive. Besides, although our company's 3D performance lags behind voodoo for the time being, it will not always lag behind." He Guoyuan frowned.
He was a little unhappy to hear Qin Feng's words.
"I know. So, I mean low-end!" Qin Feng said.
"What do you mean?" He Guoyuan was stunned again.
"Now all users need to buy a graphics card when buying a computer. My idea is to integrate the graphics card into the CPU. Then I will directly integrate the voodoo graphics card and the ATI graphics card into the CPU. However, for the sake of cost, I must only
It is a low-end display chip. Therefore, I hope to use a CPU with the same price to achieve game display with a higher-performance CPU and mid-range graphics card." Qin Feng said.
He Guoyuan was shocked by Qin Feng's idea.
"You have to integrate the display chip into the CPU!" He Guoyuan was surprised, "And you also have to implement crossfire inside!"
"Yes!" Qin Feng nodded.
"This is very difficult!" He Guoyuan thought about it.
"I know. In the short term, I'm afraid it will be difficult to realize. However, we can implement crossfire on the motherboard. Integrate the chip on the motherboard." Qin Fengxiao said, "This is much simpler. Directly integrate the video memory chip on the motherboard."
"Motherboard! You seem to have just purchased an STB motherboard!" He Guoyuan understood.
"So, I wonder if Mr. He is willing to cooperate?" Qin Feng asked, "I don't care about high-end graphics cards. You guys compete by your own means. But on the low-end side, I hope to cooperate. Bind it to the motherboard!"
He Guoyuan pondered.
"Give me a reason why I must agree to you!" He Guoyuan said, "If you can give me a good reason, I will agree to you. Not only will I agree to you, but I will also sell you the CPU department for $1!"
He Guoyuan was curious about how Qin Feng planned to persuade him.
