Big Country Intelligent Manufacturing

"Backing VIA Corp? Isn't that going back on its word?" Among the crowd, Zhou Jiawei was the first to raise his objection.

Nowadays, the x86 architecture and the Vermilion Bird CPU architecture system were sworn enemies, how could they support the enemy? Although the Cyril chip's x86 architecture system is licensed from Intel, it's also a commercial rival, so how can the Yiming Group of Companies do something stupid like funding an enemy?

"Yeah, Director Zhou has a point, we're at a disadvantage but we can't surrender!"

"I don't approve of surrendering to the enemy either!"

"We've completed the physical circuitry verification process for our Reeley 260MMX CPU and will soon be able to release the finished product to the market, nothing to fear from Intel!"

In the meeting room, the majority of the key members of the group spoke up, offering their opinions on the issue.

There was also a small group of people who were contemplating and looking at Xu Zhenming with furrowed brows. They should be speculating about Xu Zhenming's main intention in voicing this opinion, finding logical reasoning for Xu Zhenming's opinion.

After looking at these technical cadres who are proficient in technology but not in politics, Xu Zhenming smiled wanly, "Will Intel keep licensing x86 architecture technology to VIA? What would VIA do if they suddenly stopped authorizing it?"

"Hiss ...... That's a problem. But Mickey has an anti-monopoly law, and Intel can't even authorize it without it." At this time, Hu Mingzhen, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air and give a reason that he couldn't even convince himself.

As a Chinese who grew up in the Bay, Hu Mingzhen certainly hoped that the Bay area would have a Chinese company that could develop and manufacture its own CPUs.

However, Xu Zhenming's assumption was also very reasonable, the Mickey Mouse was a rogue businessman who never kept his word and would turn over a new leaf when he said he wanted to for the sake of profit.

One day in the future, it is also very likely that Intel will cancel licensing x86 architecture technology to Cyril's CPUs. At that time, VIA could fall for the trick, and be viciously shaded by Mickey Mouse.

Thinking of this, Hu Mingzhen involuntarily shook his head slightly, "The MiG wouldn't do that, would they... although Cyril has been sold to VIA Corporation, it's also a MiG company, paying taxes to the MiG."

"No, Boss Chen and Big Sister Wang are very ambitious and will definitely move Cyril back to Bay Island." At this point, Xu Zhenming spoke out another hypothesis that had happened in the future.

If this hypothesis really came true, the Cyril CPUs would completely belong to the brand of China's Bayview. At the same time, Cyril lost its identity as a MiG company, would MiG's monopoly law still protect it?

Hiss ......

After hearing Xu Zhenming introduce this kind of deduction, a sound of cold air was sucked out of the conference room. Everyone had understood and agreed with Xu Zhenming's judgment of Cyril's future.

This is called too greedy people, get a sesame and lose a watermelon, often lose the future. If Big Sister Wang and Chairman Chen were to go ahead, VIA's prospects of developing their own CPUs would be very slim!

"Xu Dong, even if we are willing to support VIA Corporation, they may not be willing to accept our good intentions, right?" After understanding Xu Zhenming's analysis, Zhang Neodymium Jin hesitantly asked Xu Zhenming. He still didn't like Xu Zhenming's idea and thought that Miss Wang wouldn't accept Xu Zhenming's good intentions.

In other words, Chairman Chen's wife Big Sister Wang is not simple, her father is the richest man in Wanwan, she has founded several high-tech companies, and is very famous in the microelectronics industry in Wanwan. She is strong-tempered, and is a strong woman. In this moment of complacency, can she accept Xu Zhenming's good intentions?

At this time, everyone here looked at Xu Zhenming with half-hearted suspicion, believing that the words of big brother Zhang Neodymium Jin were also very reasonable.

But after Xu Zhenming heard the words, he smiled slightly, "We made the gesture of wanting to support VIA Company, we actually don't report hope, but just want to convey a kind of goodwill to VIA Company."

After messing around for half a day, this kind of decision of his was a bluff, and the purpose was to divide VIA Corporation's superstition about the x86 architecture system.

According to Xu Zhenming's speculation, if he uses the ARM architecture system to cooperate with VIA, he might even be able to get the technical secrets of the x86 architecture from VIA.

That was the root of Xu Zhenming's decision to make such a decision!

He's going to want to get the technology for the x86 system architecture through normal means, not by amplifying the Pentium CPU theft technology, or by bribing technicians to steal the technology.

"Wow ...... "After hearing Xu Zhenming's explanation, the conference room burst into applause.

Only now did the crowd know that their boss wasn't an idiot, the calculations were particularly special!

"Okay, everyone, quiet down. It's time for us to discuss the development of the Riley 260MMX CPU." Zhou Jiawei jawed at the crowd as he applauded, smiling and reminding everyone to be quiet.

According to the flow of the meeting, the rest of the time was mainly going to be spent discussing the Vermillion Bird III chip. Intel's Pentium 300MMX CPUs had already started to be released, leaving little time for the Vermillion Bird III chip.

"Ahem. Xu Dong, colleagues, first of all, I have to return the favor. This morning, our Rely 260MMXCPU R&D team has already met and discussed various measures on how to remedy this chip." After the applause had died down, Zhou Jiawei took out the solutions that his department had discussed for everyone's reference.

Because even if the Rely 260MMX CPU accelerates the development process and can be distributed in July, it's actually a generation behind Intel's product.

Therefore, after discussion, Zhou Jiawei's team came up with three salvage plans.

The first one is to cancel the model of the Riley 260MMX CPU and not release it even if the development is completed. The second one is to cancel the L2 cache of the Riley 260MMX CPU and release it as a low-end chip.

None of these three options is a perfect solution, but there's nothing that can be done about this current situation. In the face of the enemy's harsh downscaling and suppression offensive, the Yiming Group of Companies must always resist, right?

"I think we should cancel the release procedure of the Sharp CPU. Our Yiming Group Company has always made fine products that can't be inferior to Intel's products. Therefore, we won't be able to use the backward generation of Reeley CPUs against the Pentium 300MMX CPUs!"

"I disagree with Director He's opinion. Even if our Sharp CPU is going to be a generation behind the Pentium CPU, we still have to release this product. Our customers in China need our own CPUs!"

"The Sharp CPU is to be released on time, but we should choose a suitable entry point."

After hearing Zhou Jiawei's introduction, the technical backbones and bigwigs in the conference room couldn't agree again.

But most of the technical backbone still preferred that Yiming Group Company was going to release the Reeley 260MMX CPU at its own pace.

"Good! I agree with the majority opinion. We, the Yiming Group of Companies, should stick to our own path and not be led off the beaten path by the Mickey Mouse. You hit you and I'll hit me, killing pigs and asses, each has its own way of killing!"

After looking at the arguing tech gurus, Xu Zhenming was happy to give his opinion.

Although the Vermilion Bird III-Reliance 260MMX CPU lagged behind Intel's CPU by a generation, he was instead more at ease.
