Technology company, I will become the light of China!

Chapter 40 This may not be a desperate situation!

United States, Gaotong Corporation Building

CEO Office

Mollenkopf shook the decanter and handed the red wine glasses to the three middle-aged men sitting on the sofa one by one, with a very low posture.

“Mr. Ghazi, Mr. Foske, Mr. Rhine, without your help, I think I alone will not be able to truly wipe out that Dragon Kingdom enterprise.”

Not many people in the world can make mobile phone chip giant and Gaotong CEO Mollenkopf pose like this.

The identities of the three people on the sofa are naturally not simple. From left to right, they are:

Sahin Ghazi, President of Synopsys

Fuske, President of Cadence Electronic Technology Co., Ltd.

Rhine, President of Mentor Corporation

The EDA software developed by the company of these three people has firmly locked in 95% of the global chip design market.

Although other EDA software also has similar functions, in the simulation verification stage, the accuracy of other EDA software is completely different from these three.

Let’s put it this way, if you use other EDA software for cheap, even if all the tests in the simulation verification process pass, there will still be a high probability of failure in the trial production process.

What does trial production failure mean?

High tape-out costs!

The tape-out process for trial production costs millions each time. The more advanced the chip nanotechnology, the higher the cost.

In order to reduce the possibility of failure, most chip design companies will not choose to use other EDA software. They only look for the three top three companies in the world, because once they pass the simulation verification of their EDA software, they can reduce the number of chips as much as possible. Possibility of tapeout failure

Sitting on the far left side of the sofa, Sasin Ghazi, who was already bald, took the red wine glass and looked at Molenkov with confusion:

“An unknown small company from the Dragon Kingdom, what exactly did they do? That’s why you, Molenkov, want us to block their software license at all costs.”

“I thought I was the only one who called me, but I didn’t expect both of you guys to come. My God, I dare say that this is a devastating blow to the chip company.”

Rhine sighed

Sitting in the middle, Fuske, who looked serious, said calmly:”I have blocked their ability to use Cadence software. I hope that your company will abide by its promise and pay 30% more usage fees every year.””

“nature”

Mollenkopf raised his red wine glass and signaled

The four of them took a small sip and put the red wine glasses back on the table.

Who would have thought that the gathering of these four CEOs of Fortune 500 companies was just to bring down a small company in Longguo with a valuation of less than 700 million and not even listed on the market?

The purpose of Mollenkopf’s aggressive move is very clear, which is to obtain the DSP multi-core architecture technology patent in the Kaitian baseband chip.

Although the Snapdragon 810 processor has supported the entire 4G network, they have encountered an unavoidable technical problem, that is, the signal decoding speed is too slow. To put it bluntly, the signal is poor and the network is slow.

And just right!

DSP multi-core architecture can solve it perfectly!

They originally wanted to imitate it and then secretly apply for a patent, but Longguo suddenly announced the entire principle of this technology, which was equivalent to a platform for the patent of Longxing Technology Company’s technology.

What can Gaotong Company do?

They can’t be rogue and use it forcefully

Because if they don’t abide by the rules of the game, then others don’t have to abide by them, and the patent rights become a joke, which no one wants to see.

Later, the R&D team of Gaotong Company wanted to redesign the architecture, but they were not satisfied, and the power consumption far exceeded expectations.

What else can I do if I can’t get around it?

The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of possessing the jade. It can only think of robbing it!

Mollenkopf had someone take apart a Longxing X1 mobile phone, use the parts to find the suppliers one by one, and negotiate with them about cutting off supply.

However, the process was surprisingly smooth

Some parts manufacturers even bluntly said that they wish Longxing Technology would close down soon.

The reason is also very practical, that is, the dominance of Longxing Technology Company has caused their order volume to drop too much.

What exactly does it mean?

Before the release of Longxing X1, there were rice phones, hammer phones, Lianxiang phones, Blue and Green Factory, etc. in the Longguo mobile phone market.……

Take mobile phone lenses as an example. The combined production of these mobile phone manufacturers every day consumes at least hundreds of thousands of lenses and as many as millions. This gives lens manufacturers massive supply orders.

But with the announcement of the Longxing X1 mobile phone, these mobile phone manufacturers are waiting and watching and no longer produce mobile phones. Orders from parts manufacturers will naturally drop sharply.

Although Longxing Technology Company is also placing orders, and in recent days it has placed orders of hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands, but compared to the five or six hundred thousand or millions in a single day before, parts suppliers can still tell the difference. Which side is more profitable?

Perhaps Chen Xing never thought that while selling the Longxing X1 mobile phone, it would also damage the interests of parts suppliers.

But is this his fault?

There is no right or wrong in market competition!

In the adult world, there are only interests and positions, and there is no right or wrong!

If you have to say that he was wrong, it would be that he did not expand the Guancheng factory earlier, increase the daily output of Longxing X1, and maintain the interests of parts suppliers. However, another very real problem is that he really had no money at that time!

When the Longxing X1 mobile phone could supply blood to the company, Chen Xing immediately thought of expanding the factory. However, this did not happen overnight. Twenty production lines had already emptied his family fortune.

This can only be said that Mollenkopf took advantage of the right time, place and people.

As for MediaTek, they also want to get the DSP multi-core architecture and develop the second”Kaitian chip””

but! What Cai Mingjie couldn’t refuse the most was Mollenkopf’s promise to let Gaotong’s top chip team solve the technical bottlenecks they encountered.

For this all-round, blind-end sanctions, Mollenkopf has put in a lot of effort, but if he can completely destroy Longxing Technology and acquire it, it will still be a bloody gain.

DSP multi-core architecture technology, he is bound to get it!

Dragon Kingdom Deep City

SEG Technology Park

Faced with the EDA software being blocked, Chen Xing is thinking about how to solve the current dilemma. Since foreign EDA software cannot be used, he can use domestic EDA software. Huatian EDA is a good choice.

As for chip foundries, he is not sure whether they are involved in the sanctions.

However, according to TSMC’s size, it should be disdainful of sanctions, and Gaotong is not that capable.

Seeing Chen Xing’s solemn look, Gao Zhengqian guessed what he was thinking and said in a confident tone:”President, don’t worry, we don’t have those three EDA software. We still have domestic EDA software that can be used. As long as I’m here, there will be no problem.””

Be confident and calm!

Strong people never complain about the environment!

Chen Xing met the fighting gaze and asked for an answer:”Without Synopsys, Cadence and Mentor, can our company really develop chips?”

he wants to know the answer

If possible, today’s difficult situation will be repaid a hundred times

Gao Zhengqian smiled calmly and said confidently:”Of course it is possible. We also have quite good EDA software companies in Longguo. This is not an unbreakable situation.”

“That’s right!”

At this moment, Bai Yan, a golden-quality talent, came over. With a smile on his lips, he announced the results:

“Before the EDA software was deactivated, I had completed the personalized chip architecture design belonging to our Longxing Technology Company. It has ultra-high performance characteristics. Our processor chip parameters should probably be set at ten cores!”
