Rise of the Wasteland Chapter 1782: Big fanfare
Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
The rapid development of Eagle Sauce in the decades after World War II is not bragging, and the technical system established in decades is extremely terrifying. For latecomers with a low starting point, it is impossible to surpass this system, and they can only be integrated from the low end and slowly climb up.
We often joke about ‘crossing the river with eagle sauce’, but how many people know how helpless is behind this joke? Being sprayed without moving can only make a cottage without innovation. This psychological pressure and decadence have created a large number of well-known big Vs.
What a big bull IBM is in the industry! How many people want to hold it thighs can not hold it. No one can look down on low-margin projects, package and sell PC and low-end server services, and only do high-end ones.
The high-end large-scale manoeuvrable machine has millions of tens of millions of RMB, and even hundreds of thousands of small machines. If you just sell one, you can sell hundreds or thousands of PCs. Why not IBM?
It is said that if an ordinary company wants to pry the server market, it must be suppressed by IBM in terms of technology and standards. It can only start from the low end, and the cold soup that people don't want to eat slowly develops, and it may take a chance to climb to the middle position in a decade or two.
But this is not the same for Uncle Zhou-I do n’t have any restrictions on shipping goods, I naturally choose expensive ones for Mao to ship cheap and low-end products. The server segment extends upwards, and the best ones are IBM's various minicomputers and mainframes.
IBM products have won praise from the industry for their extraordinary stability, security, and reliability. It is used in finance, scientific research, communications, medical, military, manufacturing, public safety, and government agencies. And users trust this brand and are reluctant to change other products.
China also wants to make high-end products, but the performance is worse, it will hurt if there is a comparison. Domestic banks have regulations that half an hour after the server crashes, the leaders of the relevant banks have to go to the CBRC to explain what happened. If it crashes for more than an hour, someone will have to lose the official.
If you are a bank leader, you wo n’t joke about your official position as a mouse. So Xiao Yi thought it was not easy to sell machines in China. She simply pulled foreigners as targets and established her reputation.
Xiao Yi talked to IBM through government channels and asked for patent licenses for related chips and software architectures-you must either cooperate with us or wait to be cleared from the market.
Executive orders are so domineering. IBM initially disagreed and even threatened to withdraw from the rabbit market. Rabbit is very happy about this-it is better for you to quit, I do n’t have to pay for patents, I can force domestic companies to use ‘picked up’ servers.
In the course of secret negotiations, "Radiant Electronics" displayed its "design" and "improved" chips, equipment and software. There is a full set of things, not at all ambiguous.
This situation stunned IBM's negotiators-Fuck, you secretly used our software and hardware architecture, not to mention, the performance is better than ours?
Xiao Yi, who is in charge of negotiation, can only whistle in his heart-yes, my man feels that the IBM brand is big and the product performance is good, specially selected your high-end Z series machines to sell. This was originally your next generation product, just changed our logo.
When encountering such a situation, IBM is also very helpless!
In fact, all countries in the world use similar methods to develop their own economies and enterprises. Even when rabbits go to other countries to sell products, they are also required to build factories locally, hire workers, and share technology.
In fact, Rabbit used the same method to clean up the boss ‘Qualcomm’ in the mobile phone chip industry-either fined you billions for monopoly or obediently handed over the technology to cooperate with our domestic enterprises. Qualcomm chose to cooperate obediently.
Now IBM can only recognize it by pinching its nose-the global server market is shrinking, and the rabbit family is expanding. It is absolutely unacceptable to throw away this market. It is better to sell the patent right for some money.
The result is that without the knowledge of the industry, Radiation Electronics announced that it has achieved a "strategic" partnership with IBM and will launch high-end servers and mainframes based on three-nanometer process chips-our best with IBM Z series is compatible!
Port compatible, protocol compatible, and software compatible. It ’s strange that it ’s incompatible. This was originally IBM ’s thing. It just changed its shell and trademark.
Waiting for the agreement to be announced, a senior executive in the IBM Rabbit District only realized that he had been pitted by someone at the headquarters—you really put the wolf in the sheepfold! Believe it or not, they will eat the entire market clean in a few years, and no longer have our share.
If others want to make progress, they all eat from the low end. Uncle Zhou was a destructive direct bomb drop, suppressed from the high-end volley, forcing others to go nowhere.
Informed by a series of explosive news, the executives of the IBM rabbit district who were with Fidel could not sit still. He does n’t want to be the ‘giant shoulder’ under the ‘radiation electron’, he has to fight back. And how to fight back?
"You guys are going to bid openly, right?" IBM executives asked Citi's deputy general manager.
"Yes." Citigroup shrugged at the Shanghai's deputy general manager, saying that we can't help, "We are also under pressure from the rabbit government, but I believe that this" radiation electronics "will be authorized by your headquarters in a short time It's impossible to really surpass you. "
This is a bit of morale, but IBM executives are also thinking in their minds: You say we are ahead of our generation? Can we easily surpass our decades of technological accumulation? Do you know how complicated our entire system architecture is, you must be bragging!
"We must participate in this open tender, and we must make a big impact and attract the media to report. We will come up with our best equipment to bid, and use actual conditions to prove that we are the best."
The executives of IBM ’s rabbit district are thinking more and more right. He slaps fiercely and shouts: "I have to admit that the radiation electron is very clever. They must have a strong government background.
However, there is no way for the government to influence the technical field. They may have created chips with good performance, but our IBM system optimized for various businesses is not so good to beat. "
I do n’t know if IBM ’s executives are tough or confident. In short, he strongly urges to compete with the radiated electronic ‘radiation 1’ series servers. Even if Citibank's purchase volume is not large this time, it has also become a meeting place for industry rookies and bigwigs.
For Citibank, this is also a good opportunity to advertise yourself, there is no reason to disagree. As a result, an open tender has gradually turned into a competition for hegemony. The media is very happy to see such tit-for-tat news, and the report is particularly exciting.
A rabbit company wants to openly challenge IBM's hegemony in the market? This matter has been widely concerned even in the world, and countless people want to know the inside story. For Chinese people, this matter is more likely to cause a sensation. If this is successful, it will be more enjoyable than how many Olympic gold medals.
But just before the hegemony of high-end servers has begun, "Radiant Electronics" suddenly announced that it will enter the market of civilian PC main chips, challenging Intel's dominance.
The intel, who was originally watching the drama, also jumped up and scolded-radiating electrons, are you **** wrong? You did IBM, and I would only clap my hands. What do you do when you suddenly come here? I did not trouble you again!
Zhou Qingfeng's explanation for this is that anyway, one is dry, and the other is dry. Anyway, sooner or later, if there is a conflict, it is better to save something.
