Chapter 832 Bald Eagle's Second Boomerang
"The second generation of Panda mobile phones was launched in 1989. Are there any problems?" Liu Hai asked about the second generation of Panda mobile phones again.
"Not a big problem!" Ni Nan knew that Liu Hai was not just asking about the mobile phone, because the second generation of mobile phones is the entire system of digital communication mobile phones. The simplest difference is that they can send text messages.
Although Fenghuo Technology Company is now famous, it is still losing money.
Because there are too many things involved, such as chips in the communication field, computer mobile phones, etc.
Panda mobile phones and Panda computers can be said to be profitable, but the research and development costs of Panda mobile phone communication base station equipment are huge.
However, Liu Hai's current cash flow is very healthy, whether it is the investment in the pharmaceutical research institute of his junior sister, or the Heshun Aviation Aircraft Manufacturing Company, as well as overseas entertainment copyright game consoles and the like.
There are also these applications on the computer, the World of Warcraft text interactive game, and the shares of these companies are also a lot of money.
Since these applications are so profitable, Liu Hai will of course let everyone get rich together.
As for CS, because the user base of the second generation of Panda computers is relatively small, this software is not available separately now.
The life cycle of online games like this is very long. Since we want to make online CS games, we must make them better and better, optimize the characters, optimize the maps, and add many more modes.
Biochemical mode, hide-and-seek mode, etc.
When this game starts to make money, we will then become independent.
If we become independent too early now, we won’t make much money, because I believe many people are now staring at the games on their computers.
Of course, this is also a phenomenon that Liu Hai needs to show the public, that is, the investment cycle of making chips is long and the risk is high.
"How is Intel doing recently?" Liu Hai asked again.
"The military gave IBM an order, which uses Intel chips."
"Some universities in Bald Eagle also use IBM computers, and they also use Intel chips."
"It is said that the university computers have financial subsidies, but their next-generation chip research and development progress has slowed down."
"Their current mainstream chip is still the 386 chip developed in 1985."
Liu Hai knew that in history, Intel launched the 486 chip in 1989, which was the next year.
The 486 integrates 1.2 million transistors and has a clock frequency of 50MHz.
And it used RISC reduced instruction set technology for the first time in X86.
It also uses burst bus transmission.
However, if Intel wants to make the historical 486 chip now, it will encounter some obstacles.
That is the reduced instruction set. Fenghuo Technology Company has many patents. If they want to avoid touching these patents, they have to develop a more complex instruction set system.
And the burst bus is already a patented technology of Fenghuo Technology Company, so they have to choose another way.
486 is actually 386+387+ cache.
Loongson chips are not just embedded chips now. The performance of dual-core Loongson chips completely exceeds that of Intel chips.
"We still have to be vigilant!" Liu Hai knew that since the military gave IBM an order, Intel and Microsoft could also profit from it.
To be precise, these procurement proposals were pushed out by these behind-the-scenes pushers.
Intel, Microsoft, and IBM have a strong influence in the government.
Microsoft's first order that year was a carrot pit order.
So don't say that starting a business in a garage can make you prosperous. First of all, you need to have a garage, and then you can receive designated orders from the government. In this way, not only can you start a business in a garage, but you can also succeed in starting a business in a tent.
"Yeah!" Ni Nan nodded.
"In addition, you should pay attention to carefully identifying researchers who have returned from abroad. Not everyone wants to serve the motherland. Our talents are still mainly cultivated independently, especially core technologies." Liu Hai has no way in this regard.
"I understand this!" Ni Nan nodded. Not to mention those who have returned from abroad, even some people in China should pay attention.
This not only relies on a strict system, but also in the research field, different research is given to different people.
In terms of chips and other aspects, Fenghuo Technology Company is already the best in the world, so it does not need many top foreign researchers.
Of course, it is mainly Liu Hai who can guide the general direction.
In fact, Intel and Microsoft are not having a good time, although they have received many orders from the government and the military.
But the reputation is bad, because these computers are also used by people.
Everyone has overlooked a problem. Computers are just tools. IBM's computers made with 386 chips are much better than the first generation of Panda computers, and their performance is much higher, but why is their reputation so bad?
Because computers are just a port for accessing the Internet ecosystem.
Just like in 2020, mobile phones are just an access port.
Whether it is a mobile phone of a few hundred yuan or a few thousand yuan, what is the use of a simple mobile phone?
If there is no access to the Internet, how much difference is there between a mobile phone of a few thousand yuan and an old phone of a few dozen yuan?
The core of a computer is a tool for connecting to the Internet. If there is no Internet, what is the use of such a high-performance computer?
Isn't this definitely a trick?
So the reputation of IBM computers has declined rapidly, especially many people said that the performance of the previous computers was sufficient and there was no need for new computers.
At the same time, the politicians who promoted this procurement proposal also fell into trouble. The politicians of the Bald Eagle opposed just for the sake of opposition. Moreover, it would be strange if you didn't catch such a big fox tail.
The opposition brought out the remarks made by the Bald Eagle experts on TV and newspapers before, that is, the performance of computers will not lag behind in 10 or 20 years, so why spend so much money to upgrade computers now.
Especially some words said by the founders of some companies themselves.
When the computer is not connected to the Internet, it is just a tool, and people can't experience any happiness on it.
The military is better, and they can use the LAN of Fenghuo Technology Company. There is no patent for military use.
The government procurement cannot steal the LAN of Fenghuo Technology Company..., so the computers purchased by the Bald Eagle government do not have a LAN.
In fact, the earliest application of computer LAN was the Bald Eagle military, but it was said that no patent was applied for.
That is, the computers used by the Bald Eagle government are one by one.
Even the computers used by Bald Eagle College are separate and do not have a local area network.
How can the students of Bald Eagle College not be angry? They are also college students, but others can play games, chat and make friends.
And facing a separate computer, they naturally have no good impression of the computer in front of them.
The straight line of word-of-mouth decline is the decline in stock prices. Although these three companies have used many methods and invited many experts to come out and say that the government units purchased these things to better serve the people.
But investors see it very clearly. Although many people in China are now pouring into the Internet field, Bald Eagle's Internet is a blank sheet of paper.
I don't know where to start, and now everyone is just hyping the concept.
These investors set their sights on London, across the ocean.
So although the three companies received orders, their stock prices fell.
Faced with this situation, Bald Eagle decided to use part of the funds to promote domestic Internet research.
It's a pity that the government is willing to promote research, but the money it takes out is too little.
Because if you want to bypass the current Internet standards, the research and development costs must be increased by at least 10 times.
Internet standards are free!
So Bald Eagle can adopt London's Internet standards!
However, computers and other devices that access the Internet standard will be charged.
This is why first-class companies set standards!
That is to say, if Bald Eagle wants to adopt the current Internet standard, then his computers, routers, servers and other things must adopt the new standard, that is, the equipment developed by Fenghuo Technology Company.
He must pay Fenghuo Technology Company patent fees... .
So as long as Bald Eagle uses the London Internet standard, he must pay.
Of course, patents are not impossible to bypass, but if you want to bypass other people's patents, you have to pay more research costs.
And you don't know what patent barriers the other party has waiting for you.
Being forced into a corner, Bald Eagle used the Pakistan Agreement to say that Niu Niu and Gallic Chicken's actions violated the agreement.
However, Niu Niu and Gallic Chicken later said that we can just withdraw from the agreement.
And in turn, they accused Bald Eagle of violating the agreement first, and whose car factory built factories in certain Eastern countries and sold cars to the world.
What's the matter with the mobile phones and communication systems of American Communications Company.
And what are the mobile phones that Motorola sells all over the world!
You, the bald eagle, are shameless. You make a fortune in silence and don't want us to make money.
Now we withdraw from this agreement!
In fact, this agreement has long been in name only, of course, it is only aimed at certain countries in the East.
If the bald eagle doesn't bring it up, everyone will pretend not to know about it.
Now that the bald eagle has made it clear, the Gallic chicken will simply withdraw.
Fenghuo Technology Company has invested a lot of money in Europe, such as the LCD display R&D center established in Gallic chicken two years ago, and the annual R&D investment is in the billions of US dollars.
Not to mention that Gallic chicken has sold so many helicopters to certain countries in the East, and the total number of transport helicopters and armed helicopters is more than tens of thousands. Most of the maintenance parts of these helicopters are imported from certain countries in the East.
Because it is cheap, the maintenance cost of these thousands of helicopters is a very large amount every year.
Then the newspapers of these two countries also criticized the bald eagle, saying that this is selfish and hinders free trade.
Such an agreement will only make the other camp more united and stronger.
If some countries in the East are forced to move to another camp now, no one wants to see it.
Seeing that the fat bear is in trouble, is he going to push some countries in the East to become the boss of the other camp?
So the Gallic Rooster and the Bull don’t know why the Bald Eagle is so stupid now.
Now some countries in the East are no longer the poor countries they used to be. What will happen if some countries in the East are forced to fall into the camp of the fat bear?
The whole of Europe may be flooded by the overwhelming flying motorcycles.
The Bald Eagle is fine on the other side of the ocean.
Several small countries in Europe did not withdraw from the agreement and wanted to follow the Bald Eagle. The next day, their mobile network was cut off.
In addition, the network operator also said that it would stop operating the network in the country.
Then these small countries were in chaos. First of all, the students in these countries were not happy. If there is no network, how can I live!
The Gallic Rooster and the Bull even said that they would investigate the capital pouring into these countries. The meaning is very clear. Since you countries want to follow the bald eagle, then don’t invest in our home to make money!
Liu Hai smiled slightly when he saw this news during the Chinese New Year. This is what Europe is like in bulk.
However, these countries obviously did not hold on. Although the bald eagle expressed support, the people were not happy. After all, the mobile phones they bought are useless now?
I just spent 6999 US dollars on a high-end Panda 2nd generation computer. Now you say there is no network?
Just see if I smash the glass of your house!
And those merchants who run Internet cafes, if the network is cut off, the new Panda 2nd generation computers they bought with loans of hundreds of thousands of yuan will be wasted?
Who dares to cut off my network? I will hire a gunman to deal with him.
There are many social people in this part of Europe. Politicians in these small countries had to resign because some people actually received warnings of shooting.
And who can open Internet cafes in the local area?
Now the profit of opening an Internet cafe is higher than that of drug trafficking. Dozens of computers are sold, and then people line up to send money!
If there is a problem with the computer or the network, just make a phone call, and the after-sales staff of Panda Computer will automatically come to deal with it.
Such an easy money-making business, can ordinary people do it?
The bald eagle shot itself in the foot. Gallic rooster and bull even openly started doing business with fat bear.
Didn’t you have an agreement to block it before? Now we withdraw.
Fat bear was a little flattered in the face of such changes. Map increasingly believed that his changes were recognized by the world, and decided to increase the intensity of change, and even had the idea of changing the system. (In the later period of history, Map did have this idea.)
The bald eagle originally wanted to use this agreement to restrict the development of certain countries in the East, but he didn’t expect to get himself out of it.
Then the interesting thing came. Xiaobenzi sued Motorola for a huge amount of compensation because he violated the agreement and sold the technology of some eastern countries to our country.
And the lawsuit was filed in the country of Bald Eagle.
Australia saw that there was such a good thing, so I also sued Motorola, this guy sold so many mobile phones in my country.
Bald Eagle hit his head with a boomerang again. The CEO of Motorola publicly stated that the politicians of Bald Eagle are all stupid, just as stupid as donkeys in the countryside, and some actors should play donkeys.
The result of the matter was of course inconclusive. After seeing this result, Liu Hai was relieved. This is the benefit!
Because the Internet circle is big enough, the benefits are enough, and enough people are involved, so it can have such an effect.
