Global Monopoly of Technology

Chapter 615 [The aggrieved SIA]

The people in SIA are not stupid, and it is impossible for the parliament to pass this kind of funding proposal, and those technology companies in North America are even more stupid. In the tearing scene in the conference room at the moment, one of the executives of SIA mocked:

"You have come up with DNA storage technology, and the infrastructure of the current data center will soon be obsolete, so you want us to take over and rot in our hands? Excuse me, which of you genius came up with this idea? ?"

If you want to talk about the biggest pain point of cloud computing services, it is undoubtedly the infrastructure such as data centers. This is the main culprit that leads to the high investment cost of cloud computing services. High hardware investment and huge electricity bills This has led to higher operational investment costs for cloud service providers year after year as data demands continue to grow.

Even some big companies seem to be overwhelmed. After all, Bluestar Technology, Microsoft, and Google are only a few technology giants that are not short of money.

However, DNA storage technology perfectly solves these problems. The cost can be said to have dropped sharply, almost no maintenance costs are consumed, and it can last for thousands of years. It turns out that a super data center has a site area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters, with the same specifications. The amount of data, DNA storage technology only needs one or two small bottles to fit in.

When using this new technology to build a data center in the future, the cost can be reduced to about 80% of the traditional data center, and the competitiveness of the sudden cost conversion is unparalleled.

The cloud services provided by providers with this technology will inevitably be cheaper. In other words, the cost of Bluestar Technology's Star-Cloud service will be further reduced on a large scale after connecting to emerging technologies. Better market competitiveness.

The worst thing is that even if the price is cut by more than half, there is still profit to be made, which is absolutely disastrous news for other competitors.

At this time, I am either stupid or I want to die faster.

It can be said that the previous 1 trillion US dollar stimulus plan of the old and the United States has been lost again. Now both outside media industry insiders and competitors have suddenly realized that when North America’s 1 trillion US dollar technology industry stimulus plan was launched, Luo Sheng announced that Bluestar Technology was directly confronting the front, and announced that the company had also begun to cut prices. At that time, everyone thought that he was out of control.

Now that I saw the birth of emerging technologies such as DNA storage, I realized that I was superficial. It turned out that people had already prepared big moves.

At the end, everyone was a little tired of spraying, and they also quit the 'Zuan state' one after another, and Zhang Bowen said again: "There is no point in arguing like this, otherwise, I will say it straight, Bluestar Technology bottom line.”

Hearing this, John Nordell and the others immediately turned their ears away,

Zhang Bowen said in an orderly manner: "Don't think about forcibly taking it. To tell you the truth, we have taken this into consideration for all data, including backups in Europe and Southeast Asia. If you play rogue tricks, we will definitely have fish and nets, and each other. The determination to hurt, in the words of our chairman: as long as you lose more than Bluestar Technology, I will earn blood."

John Noel and the others looked condensed. This is where they are the most angry. If it wasn't for the fear that Luo Sheng, a lunatic, would really do such a crazy thing, Bluestar Technology's assets in North America would have been destroyed long ago. Freeze and took over.

This matter was brought to the negotiating table by Zhang Bowen and threatened, which made them angry and helpless.

Anyway, everyone has already torn their skins, and in the negotiation in today's closed-door meeting, both sides have let go of their hypocrisy. This kind of performance can be shown to the outside media. The closed-door meeting is playing reality.

John Northell said coldly: "Are you talking about the bottom line or a threat?"

Zhang Bowen smiled and did not respond to him, but continued to say his own words: "First of all, it is no problem for Bluestar Technology to withdraw from the North American market, but the legal assets belonging to our company must be taken away, we will not sell, this is the last time I emphasize, However, we can place these production materials around your country, such as Mexico and Canada, and continue to operate in the United States. However, if users jump out of North America by themselves, we have the right to continue to provide them with corresponding services if they use it on the external network. ."

"Secondly, we have calculated the cost of the migration and implementation of the infrastructure. It will cost roughly 28 billion US dollars. You have to bear 65% of this money, or 18.2 billion US dollars. Don't stare at me, it's you Provoked, I really want to completely liquidate the incalculable losses of my Bluestar Technology, we have the sincerity of reconciliation, but it does not mean that we have no bottom line, this is our bottom line."

Lao Zhang enumerated the conditions, and immediately provoked the other party's fury, and then Zuanhuan again.

The people on the old American side couldn't grasp the handle of Bluestar Technology the most. The legal team of the other party almost fully understood the laws of North America. After the "Prism Gate" scandal was exposed, Bluestar Technology was highlighted.

The influence of brand value and the degree of dependence of Bluestar Technology on the user habits of netizens in the United States in the past ten years will prompt many local users to use "scientific" means to surf the Internet.

John Noel said: "OK, let's put aside the Bluestar Technology business for the time being, Mr. Yao, as for the Cote d'Azur, I would like to hear if the company you represent is going too far."

Looking at the expressionless face of the old man John, Yao Jianhong smiled innocently and brightly: "Mr. John, the Cote d'Azur is not only not excessive, but as always, I still say that, Cote d'Azur walks on two legs, don't think about it. Let me give up the road of self-research, if so, there is no need to talk about it."

John was noncommittal, still expressionless, and said nothing.

Yao Jianhong put away his smile and continued: "So, it's actually very simple, we must adhere to the road of technological independence, and we are also willing to continue to communicate with SIA. As long as your chips are sold to us, we will continue to buy them, of course. , is the most advanced."

"In exchange, I can withdraw from the North American market, but you must lift the blockade of high-end equipment on me, and speed up the advancement of my plan for the entire industry chain of Côte d'Azur semiconductors."

John sneered: "Can I understand that your plan does not seem to be as smooth as you advertised, and it is not so easy to rebuild a closed loop of the integrated circuit industry."

Yao Jianhong spread his hands and said: "You are right, we still have technical links that have not been completed, but it is only limited to the first-class top-level craftsmanship, and it is only a matter of time before reaching this level. We have been preparing silently for ten years. In the words of the chairman, the big deal is another ten years, and we have already deduced the matter of turning your face and ignoring people ten years ago."

The last sentence of this sentence made the people at SIA extremely unhappy, but they didn't know how to retaliate, so they had to hold back uncomfortably.

At this time, Yao Jianhong added: "But I need to remind you, Mr. John, if we get through all the links by ourselves, it will be a life-and-death competition, not a win-win cooperation. To be honest, I Let’s say it clearly here, although the Côte d’Azur is working hard to keep and develop the international market as much as possible, we are also ready to lose all overseas markets.”

"Sitting on the Greater China market, we can't die, and the ICT companies in Silicon Valley will die a lot without their market share in Greater China. We will eat their share step by step. In the end, we are still alive, and the next step is Silicon Valley. I'm not saying that we have a certainty of victory, but neither do you, do you?"

"The decline of Kodak, the decline of Motorola, the decline of Nokia, why can't Qualcomm and Intel decline? The same is true for the Cote d'Azur, but for now, the technological innovation strength of my Cote d'Azur laboratory is the best in the world, and we have also done extreme survival. Assumptions and deductions, in general, our future is promising, and it is still in a high-speed upward stage, and the capital market's bet on us has already explained a lot."

Full of threats, the key is that the people from SIA didn't dare to retaliate.

Even with the cards that the Cote d'Azur has turned up and played, SIA is hard to catch, let alone some cards that are not revealed.

If the media reporters guarding outside saw what happened in the conference room, it would definitely be the scene of a famous painting of the century. If there were no pictures and only voice communication, they would definitely think that Yao Jianhong was on the side of SIA at this moment.

Luo Sheng's team was too strong during the negotiation, and with the home field advantage, SIA was very embarrassed.

In the final analysis, it lies in mastering the core technology and cutting-edge technology. This is the biggest confidence of Luo Sheng's team. The turbulent torrent of the big wave of technology cannot be transferred by personal will, and anyone who blocks the general trend will be ruthlessly washed away.

After a while, John said decisively: "I ask to adjourn the meeting and reschedule the negotiations in three days."

In an extremely passive situation at the moment, John Noel resolutely chose "intermission" and had to think about coping strategies, and it was impossible to reach a consensus at such a meeting.

The people on Luo Sheng's side said that there was no problem. The first interview and negotiation had just ended, and no substantive consensus had been reached, and they were exploring each other's bottom line.

The door of the conference room was reopened again, and the negotiators from both sides also came out. When the reporters who were standing guard in the outer hall saw this scene, they immediately fell into the chaos of the vegetable market.

Zhang Bowen was immediately surrounded by a group of reporters, and all the microphones were handed over in front of him.

At this point, Lao Zhang stopped and temporarily accepted an interview with the media, only to see him smiling and saying in an elegant and easy-going manner: "In the first consultation, both parties had a frank conversation, fully exchanged opinions and suggestions, and the atmosphere of the exchange was They are very active and have enhanced mutual understanding. Both sides agreed that the talks were beneficial and satisfactory, and the next consultation will be arranged as soon as possible, please continue to pay attention.”

Lao Zhang only said so much, and then he escaped from the besieging army of reporters under the protection of a group of bodyguards.

A reporter from a domestic media looked at Zhang Bowen who was leaving, and said to himself: "How do I feel that he is talking nonsense? The subtext of a positive atmosphere can be interpreted as a lot of opinions, and the subtext of a frank conversation can be interpreted as you finally. To tell the truth; the subtext of the exchange of opinions can be interpreted as saying each other, and the subtext of satisfaction can be interpreted as the two sides have explored some of each other’s bottom lines, and they have reached a little consensus without turning their faces.”

The partner is very sure: "It's definitely slang, and it has an inner taste."
