Liu Chuanzhi has a stooped back. Since the "wrestling scandal", his health has been deteriorating and he has to use a cane to walk.
Yang Yuanqing did not dare to neglect for a moment and was always ready to support him: "Anyway, Mr. Liu, we have to go to this press conference. After all, so many department leaders have gone, waiting to see the surprise Lu Fei has prepared.
It would be inappropriate for Lian Xiang to be absent."
"What is a surprise?"
Liu Chuanzhi turned his head, his eyes sharp.
"What a surprise..."
Yang Yuanqing opened his mouth, but couldn't answer for a long time.
"What the hell is Lu Fei's surprise!"
Liu Chuanzhi squinted his eyes, with anger in his eyes.
Yang Yuanqing shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't know, Lu Xiaoji did a great job of keeping things secret. I'm afraid we won't know what a surprise is until we get to the scene."
"No matter what the surprise is, it's hard to hold it in."
Liu Chuanzhi smiled coldly, "With such a huge effort, even we are invited. It doesn't take much to guess that Lu Fei wants to use the press conference to let manufacturers across the country purchase Yangtze Memory products."
"Best regards, Mr. Liu!"
Yang Yuanqing gave a thumbs up, "Now that the United States, Japan and South Korea are fighting a price war, when will the Yangtze River Storage be chosen? If it is chosen at this time, without our help, it will definitely be ruined. I heard that Lu Fei persuaded the leader to agree.
zhengfu gives priority to computers equipped with Yangtze storage products when purchasing, do you think this makes sense?"
"Have the leaders agreed?"
Liu Chuanzhi's face was grim.
Yang Yuanqing said in an uncertain tone: "I haven't received the confirmation letter."
"Don't make false claims if you don't have accurate information, and don't say anything that is not conducive to unity." Liu Chuanzhi gave him a look.
"I'm just afraid..."
"What are you afraid of?"
"Mr. Liu, you don't know."
Yang Yuanqing sighed and said that Wu Haijun relied on Lu Fei's backing, logic and Toshiba's technical support. Shenzhou not only grabbed Lianxiang's market share, but also kept grabbing Zhengfu's purchase orders, accounting for 51.17% all the way.
dropped to 40.2%.
Shenzhou has soared from a marginalized 1.03% to 14.8%, and is still devouring the shares of Lianxiang, Tongfang, Dell, and HP. If it colludes with Yangtze Memory——
Even if the procurement plan does not pass, it will definitely be a bonus!
Although Micron, which Lianxiang cooperates with, is definitely far ahead in terms of performance, it cannot resist Shenzhou's "patriotic card". Lianxiang will be passive at that time. Should it follow up or not?
"Lu Xiaoji can indeed do such disgusting things!"
Liu Chuanzhi felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten nine rounds of large intestine.
If you don’t follow up, you will ruin the Lianxiang national brand!
If you follow up, you will fall into Lu Fei's trap!
But when I think of Lianxiang Computer equipped with Yangtze Memory products, I feel an inexplicable discomfort of being NTR'd.
"So, we have to purchase more or less."
Yang Yuanqing specially explained that even if the sales of Lianxiang mobile phones plummeted and profits were cut in half, they would never adopt the "turnkey" solution and would rather cooperate with MediaTek.
It’s because Liu Chuanzhi hates Lu Fei to death!
In fact, making money is not shabby.
But Liu Chuanzhi felt shabby and disgusted from the bottom of his heart, "Well, if you are really asked to purchase to support Yangtze River Storage at that time, just do whatever you want. In short, don't take the initiative, don't refuse, be irresponsible, and don't buy more."
"clear!
"
Yang Yuanqing smiled and said: "I just said that Yangtze Memory's products have not been tested by the market. Lianxiang was conservative and bought 500 memory modules and solid-state drives to test the water first."
Liu Chuanzhi said with a smile: "Yuan Qing, you are too ignorant. Lu Xiaoji has been busy working on this matter, so you gave someone a thousand orders? Why do you have to double it, two thousand!"
"Then I...am I wrong?"
"You are so wrong. Lianxiang is the boss of domestic PCs after all. We must pay attention to unity."
"Hey, Mr. Liu, I must pay attention to unity."
Yang Yuanqing said weakly: "Then you will see if you will attend this press conference..."
Liu Chuanzhi immediately changed his face, "You are in charge now, and I have retired. In the past, I always wanted the world to know me, but now I hope the world will forget me."
You old fox!
Yang Yuanqing cursed secretly: "Mr. Liu is very upright and honest."
…………
On July 15, Yangtze River Storage in Jiangcheng Donghu Technology Development Zone held an open-air opening ceremony and press conference.
On this day, the weather was beautiful and the sky was clear.
On this day, not only the mainstream media and almost influential financial and technology media in the mainland, but also Internet media such as New Wolf, NetEase, Sohu, Penguin, and even media in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and American reporters in China also got wind of the news.
Come to the scene.
It was just a press conference, but the event was unprecedented.
After all, this is the first IDM integrated circuit company in the mainland that integrates flash memory and memory design and manufacturing. Like Fuxin, it has epoch-making and record-breaking historical significance.
Also because this is Mr. Lu’s second attempt to fill the gap in domestic semiconductors after Logic and Complex Core!
At this time, the stage was set up and the open space filled with seats was already overcrowded. In addition to the media, the guests present included Infineon, Qimonda, Samsung, Nanya, Toshiba, Huawei, Lianxiang, and Shenzhou
Waiting for domestic and foreign friends.
In addition, the more important ones are experts and academicians in the IC field including Ni Guangnan, as well as the heads of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Association for Science and Technology and other departments.
At this time, you can see the difference in severity.
Even Toshiba, Qimonda, Huawei, and Infineon, which work closely with Lu Fei, can only be placed in the second row. In addition to major newspapers, there are only Penguin, New Wolf, and NetArt among the online media.
"I declare that the ribbon-cutting ceremony has officially begun!"
With the support of Sabine Ning, the hostesses took the lead and stood in two rows with the person straightening the red ribbon.
Lu Fei, Lin Jiaqing and others picked up the scissors from the tray and cut the red ribbon with a solemn expression.
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
Along with the sound of fireworks, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
Then, it was the turn of leaders such as Lin Jiaqing to give speeches.
One round after another, it was finally Lu Fei's turn to make his debut.
"Every era has its own symbols."
“The symbol of the agricultural era is slash-and-burn farming, and the iron plow and ox farming are the symbols of that era!”
"The symbol of the industrial age is the steam engine, and the machine is the symbol of that time!"
"As we enter the information age and the intelligent age, whether it is the Internet, computers, or smartphones, in the final analysis, data has become the symbol of our era."
“Data can transform many industries!”
"So how you store data is crucial!"
"Currently, global memory chip companies include Micron and Western Digital in the United States, Toshiba, Elpida, and Kioxia in Neon, Samsung and Hynix in Bangzi, Infineon and NXP in Europe, and China is mainly concentrated in Bay Area.
Such as Nanya."
"And from now on, there will be the first one in the Mainland——"
“That’s Yangtze River Storage!”
Seeing Lu Fei speak so eloquently, Yang Yuanqing felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and said in a sour tone: "What's so great about it? I don't know why I thought I was number one in the world. I'm arrogant."
Wu Haijun curled his lips at Yu Dazui: "This is what a computer company should do. If you don't do it, forget it. Stop talking sarcastically. Are you cheap?"
"Mr. Wu, what are you talking about?"
Yang Yuanqing glared angrily.
"I said Mr. Lu is awesome!"
Wu Haijun grinned and said: "Mr. Yang, we are all solution integrators. The storage components that the old foreign sellers priced us at are so high. Isn't it just bullying that there is no decent storage manufacturer in China? Now, Mr. Lu is here.
Spring is here, Yangtze River Storage is here, and the spring of domestic computers is also here, isn’t it?”
"Mr. Wu's words are exaggerated."
Yang Yuanqing flatly denied that what level of Yangtze Memory is worthy of being compared with Micron and Samsung? We must face up to the gap!
At this moment, Lu Fei raised his voice and announced loudly:
First, Yangtze Memory has teamed up with Toshiba to develop EMMD and the first solid-state drive based on MLC SATA, which will be installed in Logic's new generation of smartphones and the iPhone equipped with 4G and 8G flash memory.
Second, Yangtze Memory will expand its partnership with Qimonda, extend its Dram production line to 80nm, and produce various computer-specific Dram components for Qimonda.
third……
fourth……
He didn't speak very fast, but the amount of information was so dense and astonishing that it was like missiles exploding in the brains of everyone in the room, barely giving him much time to think.
"Snapped."
"Pop."
Although they knew it was not the time to clap, some people just couldn't help it, and the applause came one after another, interrupting Lu Fei's speech many times.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Lin Jiaqing smiled from ear to ear, "Is this the surprise Mr. Lu mentioned? Very good, I'm very satisfied!"
Gao Qiquan, who specially arranged to accompany him, said modestly: "Boss, these are actually not the surprises Mr. Lu said."
"These are not enough surprises!"
Lin Jiaqing has never seen big winds and waves, but at this moment, I can't help but feel curious. How many surprises does Lu Fei have that I don't know about?
This doubt is also present, especially the doubts of domestic manufacturers, what is the surprise?
Under great expectations, Lu Fei revealed a surprise——
Yangtze Memory and Toshiba jointly developed and took the lead in realizing 24-layer 3D NAND flash memory chips, which will be mass-produced by the end of the year!
“3D NAND?!”
In addition to insiders from Fuxin, Yangtze Memory, Toshiba and Samsung, as well as first- and second-tier manufacturers such as Qimonda and Hynix, almost everyone at the venue looked confused.
Isn’t NAND flash memory 2D? Where does it come from 3D?!
Many media and experts subconsciously doubt whether it is a scam. After all, the "Hanxin scam" and "Ark scam" have only been in the past few years, and they are already almost suffering from emergency disorder.
But then I thought about it, Mr. Lu didn’t have this need.
With his current wealth and prestige, he would not be able to cheat or sneak attack, let alone jointly develop it with Toshiba.
It’s unlikely that Little Neon will also lie, right?
There was a commotion in the venue. After receiving Toshiba's affirmation and Ni Guangnan's endorsement, it gradually calmed down. However, I was still confused, but I knew that it would not be something that could be explained clearly in a short time.
"Everyone, please don't be impatient."
Lu Fei has long expected this scene, so for the time being, he only announced the 24-layer BICS structure 3D flash memory with Toshiba, and did not announce the self-developed 32-layer V-NAND flash memory. This is called——
Squeeze toothpaste!
He called Zhu Yiming to the stage and showed a memory card with 3D NAND flash memory particles in front of everyone. Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, and he explained the technical details that did not involve confidentiality:
"According to Moore's theorem, 2D memory has reached a bottleneck in technology. 3D memory has great advantages in terms of physical characteristics and architecture. It can provide higher capacity, excellent performance, and higher reliability at a better cost.
sex."
Starting from the structure of 3D flash memory, talking about performance, the difference with 2D flash memory, etc., keywords such as "far ahead", "complete technical system", "independent property rights", "world's first", etc. appear frequently between the lines.
When the venue heard such words, there was a lot of discussion.
Lin Jiaqing and other leaders surrounded Gao Qiquan and asked questions, academicians and experts surrounded Ni Guangnan and others, and Hynix, Qimonda and other manufacturers surrounded Fuxin, Yangtze Memory and Toshiba, eager to pry out from their mouths.
More information about 3D memory.
Even Lian Wu Haijun was bombarded with various questions.
It is really,
Once 3D flash memory comes out, the entire memory chip market, and even the entire consumer electronics market, will face a major reshuffle!
And this technological breakthrough did not come from Europe, the United States, or Bangzi, but it was actually a joint effort between China and Japan?
"Impossible! How is this possible! Absolutely impossible!"
Yang Yuanqing's eyes widened and he didn't believe it, but reality didn't allow it. Even so, he refused to admit that Mr. Lu was awesome and Yangtze River Storage was awesome. His tone became more sour and said:
"It's just that, it's just a matter of money."
"Mr. Yang understands again?"
Wu Haijun was not happy immediately.
Yang Yuanqing pouted: "This 3D flash memory must be owned by Toshiba. Can Yangtze Memory provide technology and talents? I thought about it for a long time. What else can it provide besides money?"
"Why don't Lian Xiang give one a try?"
“Lianxiang has acquired IBM’s PC division!”
"Then have you obtained IBM's core technology and patents?" Wu Haijun revealed mercilessly.
"Haha, compared to these, we have gained more, such as global sales network, international operation experience, brand reputation, etc. Even if we do not make operating systems and chips, we will be number one in the world in the future. What Lianxiang wants to do is
Just do what you have to do well.”
Yang Yuanqing raised his chin proudly.
"So what exactly should Lianxiang do?"
Wu Haijun responded angrily.
"It's not convenient to disclose it."
Yang Yuanqing's words were full of disdain. How dare you, the seventh oldest person in the world, to point your fingers at me, the third oldest person in the world and the future boss?
No, it’s okay for Lu Fei to bully me!
How dare you, Lu Fei's younger brother, bully me?
Just when the needle was facing the wheat, Zhu Yiming's technical explanation also ended. Lu Fei took over the conversation again and said plausibly:
"With the support of the state, Chinese chip companies have continued to increase investment in research and development, improve independent innovation capabilities and international competitiveness. Especially in the field of NAND flash memory chips, Yangtze Memory has achieved a historic breakthrough from following to running alongside."
"but!"
"R&D is only the first step in a long journey of thousands of miles. The next step is commercialization, and this step is critical and requires the support of manufacturers. After all, there is an unwritten rule in companies, and they all want to purchase mature products. This is understandable.
Original."
"but!"
"There should not be any discrimination in the evaluation criteria. Domestic brands are directly excluded from the procurement process without even trying. Why, if others are good, we must not be good and we will be lower than others?"
"Is this happening a lot?"
Lin Jiaqing's face was ashen and extremely ugly.
"Hard to say."
Gao Qiquan quoted Lu Fei's words and quietly revealed that many companies' bidding scores will classify products into three, six or nine grades. The first grade is imported, the second grade is joint venture, and the third grade is domestically produced.
“Wouldn’t this mean that whoever innovates suffers the consequences?”
Lin Jiaqing frowned.
"In fact, there are many corporate supports, such as Shenzhou and Patriot, who are very willing to cooperate with us, but there are some..."
"What are the 'some' you are talking about?"
"For example, Lian... I'd better not say anything. Mr. Lu asked us not to say it. It would be bad if we offend our friends and businessmen."
"Lian?"
After Lin Jiaqing thought deeply for a moment, he said earnestly: "Tell Mr. Lu for me that as long as he doesn't do bad things, no one can harm him. We will never let honest people suffer."
After saying that, he looked up at the high-spirited Lu Fei on the stage.
Facing the camera, he said passionately: "Discrimination against domestic brands, especially 'first set' products, must be eliminated! Who is good and who is bad will be known once you try it. You cannot suffer a loss or be cheated."
Then he pointed his finger to the sky and vowed: "Friends and businessmen are welcome to verify the technical strength and business prospects of Yangtze Memory."
The atmosphere in the venue became subtle and weird.
Some want to obtain technical authorization, some want to establish cooperative relationships, some want to compete for OEM orders, and some want to purchase new products...
Wu Haijun even patted his chest and immediately placed an order for 50,000 yuan, installing everything from computers to mobile phones.
"Mr. Yang, I am ranked third in the country. As our leader, Lianxiang can't be less than Shenzhou, right?"
"No, no, right?"
"you you……"
Yang Yuanqing immediately noticed countless pairs of eyes looking at him, and had to change his words: "Haha, Mr. Wu, you are right."
