Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

"Hahahaha, number one in the world! Yu Dazui is even more outrageous this time. He's far ahead and there's no stopping him."

"Too late, did we win?"

"We won! Number one in the world! I can't believe it!"

"Why are all the comments like this? Are they so pessimistic about domestically produced chips?"

"Let a professional talk about whether Yu Dazui is bragging again? Has he learned Lei Jun's marketing tactics?"

"If the meta-consciousness has truly broken through the chip packaging technology, we will now be number one in the world in the field of chip manufacturing. This is the universally recognized future development direction of the entire industry. Previously, it was expected that the technical difficulties, such as thermal management, would be solved within ten years."

Unexpectedly, domestic tech companies have been brewing something big.

"Holy crap, does that mean we're ten years ahead of everyone else?"

"In terms of chip manufacturing technology, that is indeed the case, but in terms of chip computing power alone, Nvidia's high-performance chips still occupy an important position in the global market."

However, Yu Chengdong's final statement—that the Taiji 01 chip's manufacturing cost is only a quarter of Nvidia's H100—may change the global market landscape.

...It's already causing quite a stir online.

The influence of CCTV's live broadcast is self-evident.

Multiple overseas streaming platforms and mainstream media outlets also reported on this incident.

It is now certain that domestically produced chips have achieved a leapfrog development, and have surpassed it by a large margin, leading the world by far.

Before Jensen Huang even returned to the United States, Nvidia's headquarters were already in an uproar.

Just like his first reaction, how could Dongda Enterprise possibly have solved the world's difficult problem, "chip packaging" technology?
However, this information was revealed at Huawei's grand event, during a live broadcast on CCTV.

CCTV is quite credible, isn't it?
Once this technology goes into production, its impact will be felt globally.

It can be said that it has directly changed the global landscape of cutting-edge technology.

The idea that "the science and technology center is shifting eastward" in Jiangbei City is slowly being validated.

Huang Renxun was not only shocked that the technology group supported by Jiangbei City could solve global problems, but also had concerns.

With the current manufacturing capabilities of the University of Tokyo, the technology for manufacturing 7-nanometer chips is already very mature, and 5-nanometer chips can already be produced, the only issue being the yield rate. Now, with the addition of "chip packaging", it is entirely possible to package chips that rival or even surpass the computing power of H100 without a lithography machine.

The University of Tokyo has the most complete industrial chain in the world, which allows it to keep production costs to a minimum.

Yu Chengdong said that the manufacturing cost of a single chip is only a quarter of that of Nvidia, but that may be a conservative estimate, after all, subsequent production and pricing must be taken into account.

In reality, if market demand is high, it is possible to reduce costs to one-sixth or even lower.

One H100 chip sells for $3.5 at the University of Tokyo.

The Taiji 01 chip, developed by Huawei and MetaSense, is priced at seven to eight thousand US dollars!

How the hell do you play this?
Huang Renxun was about to blurt it out.

Not only the Tokyo University market, but the global market will change as a result.

Such a low price is enough to break through trade barriers.

Intel, IBM... these American counterparts failed to defeat themselves, but now they're going to be defeated by major companies from the East.

Huang Renxun downed another cup of tea.

Lei Jun was sitting right in front of him, and Huang Renxun's actions and expressions revealed his mood at that moment.

Lei Jun himself was also very shocked and felt very upset.

His years of developing his own chips are more like a marketing gimmick, or simply putting on his own label; the core technology still belongs to someone else.

A completely self-developed chip, especially a high-performance chip, is incredibly difficult to develop.

Even if you have money, you can't necessarily buy it.

It was actually Jiangbei City that managed to pull it off.

How much money did President Jiang actually spend on this, and how many scientists did he send in?

Lei Jun couldn't understand it, and he also felt like he had been slapped in the face by President Jiang.

My face was burning.

He considered himself a relatively influential figure in the AI ​​industry, and with the higher-ups opening the door, his decision to purchase Nvidia chips was seen as setting an example of friendly cooperation. This was a topic that could be used for marketing, hence his high-profile approach.

Xiaomi made a big splash by inviting Jensen Huang to visit the company and by purchasing Nvidia H100 chips. Now, their marketing efforts have failed, and they're likely to face criticism instead.

Being criticized by netizens is a minor issue; being isolated by the industry would be much more difficult.

He'll lose half his life's reputation.

“President Huang, this stalemate is not good for the relationships of all parties. I can think of a way to break the deadlock. How about we ask President Jiang to sit down and talk? If you feel that you can’t save face, I will ask him to come and beg him in person.” Lei Jun put aside his pride and said.

Huang Renxun looked at Lei Jun without saying a word.

Jiang Beicheng refused to sit at the same table with him, so he devised a "choose one of two" tactic and stole Yuan's client.

Now the situation has reversed, and he has to go see Jiang Beicheng again, and he has to be even more humble than last time. In Lei Jun's words, he may really need to adopt a "begging" attitude.

Even so, you might not be seen in Jiangbei City.

If the two sides fail to reach a consensus, and a major battle breaks out, Nvidia will suffer heavy losses.

In the time it takes to eat dinner tonight, Nvidia has already lost several orders, most of which are worth billions.

The direct losses exceeded 10 billion.

This is just the beginning.

Huang Renxun nodded to Lei Jun.

It means asking Lei Jun to arrange another meeting with Jiang Beicheng.

His nod had a hint of admitting defeat.

……

The following morning, Huang Renxun attended the Southeast University Blockchain Expo for the last time.

The main purpose of my visit today is to exchange ideas and learn from the leaders and representatives of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) in Southeast Asia.

They were also surrounded by reporters at the scene.

The questions asked were largely the same as last time.

"Mr. Huang, can the Taiji 01 chip be compared to the H100?"

"President Huang, do you still think that President Jiang's idea of ​​shifting the science and technology center to the east is untenable?"

"Mr. Huang, I'd like to ask if you've had any private dinner appointments with President Jiang these past few days?"

...The reporter's question was like a resounding slap in the face.

The more arrogant we were when faced with these problems last time, the more humble we are today.

He feigned a polite smile, waved and nodded to the media reporters present, made no response, and quickly left the scene under the escort of security personnel.

This trip to the University of Tokyo was a disaster. I failed to impress anyone, lost face, and most importantly, didn't make any money. I might even lose money.

I've witnessed firsthand the power of Jiangbei City.

Their methods are ruthless.

But they do have the ability.

……

Lei Jun made another call to Jiang Beicheng.

Jiang Beicheng guessed that he had come to Quan He, and a smile appeared on his face.

Even Huang Renxun couldn't do it. He made such a big show of it in the first round, but he backed down as soon as he showed his strength in the second round.

Lei Jun: "Mr. Jiang, are you in Jiangnan City? Mr. Huang would like to pay you a visit."

Jiang Beicheng: "I probably won't have time; I'm leaving for Thailand soon."

He also casually reminded Lei Jun, "If you can spare the time, please make an appearance at the Golden Triangle International Free Trade Zone Investment Promotion Conference."

"Of course, I'll definitely be there," Lei Jun readily agreed. (End of Chapter)
