Chapter 844

Dafeng Group became the storm center of the global semiconductor industry for a while, and the outside world was already in chaos.

Intel’s stock plummeted that night. Fortunately, under the pressure of Dafeng Group, Intel also worked harder than another time and space. Intel issued a statement that night that it will fully mass-produce 10nm this year and directly launch 10nm+ next year.

And Intel spent a lot of effort to promote that its 10nm+ is no worse than 7nm, of course, it is necessary to criticize Dafeng Group's technology for being too radical.

But in fact, most users don't care about these things. Everyone just looks at the most direct results. No matter what 10nm+ or 7nm5nm, the performance is king.

For industry insiders, they are most concerned about whether Intel's 10nm+ can compete with Gale Semiconductor's 7nm, but at least one thing is certain. Intel's 10nm+ does not use EUV lithography technology. On this issue, Intel It was just a beat slower.

In Taiwan Province, TSMC also made a statement immediately. TSMC said that it will produce 7nm energy next year, and it will use EUV technology like Dafeng Semiconductor, and TSMC will give you a popular science. Dafeng Semiconductor has invested more in launching 8nm processors this year. a lot of money.

TSMC is directly attacking 7nm in one step, so this year is still the standard of 10nm.

Although Dafeng Semiconductor's doing so is definitely helpful in terms of experience, and it can take a step forward in technology one year in advance, but in terms of revenue, Dafeng Group's 8nm processor is indeed a bit radical. It can only be said that Dafeng Semiconductor is really Too rich.

TSMC is envious online, and because 7nm will be produced next year, TSMC is relatively calm.

However, in fact, Dafeng Semiconductor is not because it is too rich, but because Meng Qian knows that there is a high probability that he will encounter trouble this year, so he has to spend more money to prevent it. Fortunately, the company does have the economic strength to support it. thing.

As Intel and TSMC continue to speak out, everyone will naturally focus on Samsung. Although Samsung has sold half of its property, the semiconductor foundry business has been kept.

However, Samsung chose to remain silent, because Samsung really has no money to fight the money-burning war with semiconductors in the past two years. Dafeng Semiconductor has pushed the speed of the entire industry forward, which is even more difficult for Samsung. .

Samsung's image has once again declined in the entire industry. If Samsung has fallen out of the first echelon of chip production, then Samsung is now at best a second-rate company.

The outside world was turbulent, but the center of the storm was peaceful. Meng Qian arranged for the company's executives to receive the various people who came here one by one, while some middle-level managers continued to promote the Dafeng Global Developers Conference.

On the second day of the conference, everyone saw a lot of "unpopular" products as soon as they came. The reason for putting double quotation marks is because some products are really indifferent, and some products are familiar to everyone, but the common point is that they do not belong to The most common consumer electronics products in our daily life.

For example, not long after the opening session in the morning, Shen Lin brought everyone something that Dafeng Group had never heard of before, unmanned ships.

"The Gale is a civilian unmanned ship jointly developed and manufactured by the Dafeng Group and the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is characterized by the use of the most advanced cloud intelligence technology and edge computing technology to realize the unmanned voyage of the ship.

Gale is about 15 meters long, 5 meters wide, 1.6 meters deep, and has a maximum speed of 50 knots. It is equipped with Beidou navigation system, radar and fire control system. It started a sea trial last month.

In this experiment, Gale carried five research modules equipped with sensors and scientific instruments. The purpose of this experiment is to verify the feasibility of unmanned driving at sea on the one hand. Conducting missions including maritime cybersecurity, marine mammal research, sea level mapping and marine pollution observations.

After fifteen days of sea experiments, you can take a look at the results of our experiments. The Gale successfully completed all the set goals, successfully returned and brought back a large amount of data.

The success of going to sea this time means the beginning of civilian unmanned ocean exploration, and there is great significance behind this.

In the future, we will start from the three major areas of environmental protection, marine scientific research, and marine safety, accelerate the promotion of intelligent unmanned technology at sea, and activate the ocean, a huge unknown place, through unmanned ship technology.

At the same time, we have also launched a marine protection responsibility commitment activity with the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The fundamental basis for all future maritime activities is not to damage the environment. "

Many people don't understand why the Gale Group wants to build unmanned ships, and they are still civilian-grade. This is because many people don't know that the civilian ocean race has quietly started in the past few years. A group of companies headed by IBM in the United States The research and development of civilian unmanned ships is being accelerated, and the next batch of related companies that are ready to go are ready to accelerate the commercialization of marine resources.

But in the end, Dafeng Group took the lead again.

Although most ordinary people don't know much about the competition of marine resources, everyone is quite familiar with another thing that was exhibited later in the morning of the second day of the conference.

On June 12, 2019, the Huaxia Manned Space Engineering Office and the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs jointly announced in Vienna that 9 projects from 17 countries stood out from 42 applications and became the first batch of selected projects for the scientific experiment of Huaxia Space Station. This marks that the international cooperation of Huaxia Space Station has entered a new stage.

Among the 9 projects in this life, one project of our Gale Group was also selected, that is, the commercial manned spacecraft.

Everyone is familiar with commercial manned spacecraft. On the one hand, it is mentioned in various novels and film and television works. The companies are Boeing and SpaceX.

And why let commercial companies come in to build commercial manned spacecraft, in fact, it is a matter of maximizing the use of resources, just like NASA handed over the work of launching more satellites to commercial companies to help the United States establish satellite hegemony.

Regarding the space station and space exploration, there are too many things that need to be developed. If all of them are handed over to the national team, the investment will be large and the time period will be long. Just like NASA, after a period of research and development, gradually realized that the use does not leave the low-Earth orbit. There are still many challenges in the continuous propulsion of manned space vehicles.

So after developing the Orion spacecraft, the Space Launch System rocket mission, and the Journey to Mars program, NASA began to authorize low-Earth orbit spacecraft and cargo missions to commercial companies.

At this time, if we can find a few powerful commercial companies to come in and play together, and hand over some relatively non-core things to commercial companies, the national team will have more energy to do more and more important research.

At the same time, for commercial purposes, commercial companies naturally want to make products well, so they can use the research and development strength and capital investment of commercial companies to jointly promote a country's space exploration capabilities from both official and commercial ends, which is naturally more efficient.

So the Mars immigration plan has always been NASA's plan, but they pushed Musk out when facing the media.

On this issue, the Huaxia National Space Administration is obviously going to be slow, so it became Meng Qian who took the initiative to find the space agency to discuss this matter. Back then, when private enterprises were playing satellites, Huaxia was much slower. Now that private enterprises are playing space exploration, Meng Qian hopes that Can hurry up.

Fortunately, the space agency still trusts Meng Qian. Of course, the most important thing is that the Gale Group does have the ability to do this.

This time, Huaxia did not slow down too much. Boeing and Space Exploration Company also just took over the manned mission of NASA's commercial company not long ago, and now the Dafeng Group is also going to do it.

Regarding NASA's Mars immigration plan, Gale Group said that Mars is too far away, we still want to be more practical and start a lunar travel plan.

In 2017, Gale Group's lunar travel plan kicked off.

Regarding the content on the second morning of the conference, many netizens ridiculed that the Dafeng Group began to go to the sky and enter the sea.

But netizens are just teasing, because everyone is not so clear about what it means behind it, and those who know it are not in a good mood at the moment.
