Chapter 74 Reaching Consensus

When the three major overseas chip design software giants including Xinsi Technology joined forces, it can be said that the two sides have completely lost face, and there is no need to save face for each other.

As one of the earliest companies to deploy in the 5G market, Huawei's vision will certainly not be limited to the domestic market.

After all, Tamron chips are targeting the global market.

So while domestic popularity is skyrocketing, overseas branches have also begun promoting Tamron chips and the first 5G flagship machine.

There is a strong intention to launch a complete attack on the semiconductor industry.

Faced with Warwick's aggressive performance, the domestic branches of Qualcomm Xinsi Technology and other related companies could not sit still at all, and reported the situation to the headquarters one after another.

However, it is worth mentioning that this time Zhou Dehao almost didn't suffer from high blood pressure.

When the Tamron chip was first released, he had a video call with the company's CEO Kronov to report.

However, the headquarters unanimously believed that chips designed using immature chip design software were not enough to compete with Qualcomm, so they did not take it seriously to formulate countermeasures.

Now that Tamron chips are showing performance far beyond their expectations, the headquarters has thrown the responsibility to him.

He said that he did not figure out the exact strength of his opponent in time, and was reprimanded by his boss through the screen.

If he hadn't wanted to be transferred back to the headquarters, he would have fallen out with him long ago.

But there is no doubt about it.

Because Tamron chip has secured the top spot in the industry, major overseas related companies can no longer sit still. In order to ensure that the market share is not occupied by Warwick, a high-level research meeting within the company was quickly held.

Discuss what to do next.

Licanife Island.

In the core conference room of the Xinsi Technology Headquarters Building, compared to the relaxed and indifferent tone last time, Dr. Hubert was sitting in the main seat with a gloomy expression and fell into silence.

The senior company officials sitting on both sides of the conference table didn't know how to speak.

besides.

On the screen not far away, two other video images of similar scenes were also displayed.

It is the two remaining industry giants.

The three companies that provide chip design services occupy more than 90% of the global market share and have always maintained a balanced state. When encountering external pressure, they must advance and retreat together to ensure that their own interests are not harmed. .

When Huawei first announced the use of domestic chip design software, after analysis and judgment, they believed that Yinglong EDA could not achieve the artificial intelligence and cloud technology mentioned in the promotional video.

In the end, they adopted the right approach, hoping to force the other party to find them again for new cooperation.

As a result, the development of things was very different from what they expected.

Tamron, the 5G chip designed using Yinglong EDA, actually surpasses Qualcomm in terms of performance.

And there are no crashes or problems.

What does this mean?

This shows that this newly developed chip design software is not worse than theirs at all, and it is even possible that the other party has truly realized a new route of artificial intelligence plus cloud technology.

The essential.

There are also macro modules that can be directly used in chip design.

Moreover, from the previous promotional video of Yinglong, it can be seen that the entire charging model is to be more favorable to them. Now that the Tamron chip has rectified its name, I am afraid that the Asian market will soon be occupied by Yinglong.

Perhaps even these overseas chip design companies and their old customers will switch to others.

After all, for most companies, all they care about is their own self-interest.

"I didn't call you here just to be in a daze. If you have any good suggestions, just tell me."

At this time, Hubert obviously noticed the depressing atmosphere in the conference room. He immediately raised his eyes and immediately spoke loudly. He looked much more serious than usual.

For others, this is the first time in so many years that they have encountered chip design software that can compete with their products.

But even though I didn’t have much experience to draw from, I had no choice but to change the subject after hearing what the big boss said.

"Doctor, it is now a fact that Yinglong EDA poses a huge threat to us. We must not let him continue to grow, otherwise it will lead to a reshuffle of the industry."

"I suggest contacting the wafer factories we cooperate with immediately and asking them to ban the foundry of chips designed using Yinglong EDA."

"This method is indeed feasible, but it is difficult to do it just relying on our right to speak."

"Next, Yanguo will definitely strongly support Yinglong EDA, and we don't have much time left."

"This Tamron chip has now become the highest-performing chip in the world. I believe chip companies such as Qualcomm do not want them to achieve such great success in the 5G market. We can jointly apply to the higher authorities to impose restrictions on them."

When Hubert heard this, his brows quickly relaxed, and he seemed to agree with this suggestion.

Then he turned his attention to the other two company leaders in the video and asked directly: "What do you two think about this matter?"

"I have no problem with that. This industry only occupies a small part of the huge semiconductor market and does not need new chip design software."

"Do it as soon as possible."

Among the three companies, Xinsi Technology has the largest market share. Now that Hubert has made a decision, the heads of the other two companies will definitely not have any objections. After all, this matter is to safeguard their own interests.

However, Hubert was surprised and even frightened that Future Technology, a company established only two years ago, could develop chip design software of this level.

So after the meeting, I still couldn't help but sigh: "This is really a company that can create miracles, but we must not let it go."

Considering the terrifying spread of Yinglong EDA and Tamron chips in the industry, Xinsi Technology moved very quickly, without giving future technology any time to react.

After contacting Qualcomm CEO Kronoff, many parties immediately hit it off.

We jointly request that major wafer factories are not allowed to OEM chips designed using Yinglong EDA.

Perhaps this request just met the plan above, and an accurate reply was successfully received in less than ten days.

The top management officially issued an announcement, announcing that from now on, the wafer factory will no longer be allowed to accept chip foundry orders using Yinglong EDA design. The most important thing is that Gouge also stated that it will stop providing operating system services to Warwick.

For mobile phone manufacturers, this news is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, which is equivalent to being completely cut off.

When the relevant information was transmitted back to China, it immediately caused an uproar. No one expected that overseas companies would act so decisively and quickly.

Not only did it become a hot search topic in a very short period of time, it also sparked heated discussions among people from all walks of life and netizens, and almost everyone was filled with indignation.
