My Return to Life

In fact, several people in the frontier office are very clear in their hearts.

Once the developer conference starts, Fang Nian personally unveils products such as "梼杌lithography machine", "Candle Dragon", "Ice Dragon" and other products, and the frontier will face unprecedented pressure.

The fog created by the low-key strategy will all be lifted by the opening speech.

No matter whether we continue to maintain a low-key strategy or not, domestic and foreign competitors in related fields will regard Frontier as their biggest imaginary enemy.

Especially overseas technology giants, because for them, the frontier is out of control——

It is breaking away from the 'conventional' standard!

It is perfecting the new standard led by itself!

It is challenging the whole world!

This is absolutely not allowed!

But all of this will have new changes due to the big news that was detonated in advance.

At the very least, no matter whether domestic companies are willing or not, under the constraints of a certain bottom line, they must stand at the forefront.

On the other hand, because of this exposed plan, those giants entrenched in Silicon Valley, including the bald eagle, will be overwhelmed by the scandal.

No region will accept all this without resistance...

Seeing the peaceful smile on Fang Nian's face, Wen Ye turned his mind and asked softly, "Mr. Fang, is there anything we can do?"

Fang Nian said lightly, "No, I've already told Liu Xi to watch Wall Street experience Black Thursday."

"Fortunately, the demo video is not too long."

"..."

"It's time to appease the 'panicked' friends at the venue."

After finishing speaking, Fang Nian strode towards the podium, stood still in the middle, and glanced across the unquiet venue.

Fang Nian smiled slightly: "It seems that everyone is not very satisfied with the introduction of the video."

As soon as the voice fell, some shouts immediately sounded in the venue.

"President Fang, do you know what happened just now?"

"right!"

"Mr. Fang, did you already know what would happen?"

"..."

Hearing the clatter of shouts from all around,

Fang Nian pressed his hands lightly, and said intriguingly, "It's just some shady things that are destined to be discovered."

"At least... for those of you who live in China, your personal privacy data has been getting more and more secure."

"Since the emergence of the Nuwa system, have the violations of app permissions that you used to face when using Android and iOS decreased or even disappeared? Of course, the premise is that you did not take the initiative to download some unreviewed software;

The Nuwa system does not need to be jailbroken like iOS, nor does it install unknown software inexplicably like Android. "

"..."

"I know there is a common saying that all problems will eventually converge on hardware, and software security alone does not mean hardware security;

But Frontier is also working hard to improve the hardware layout;

For example, the Candle Dragon, Hetu, Ice Dragon, and Yu Qiang we just mentioned. "

"Everyone has seen how the level is, no more, no less, it just happens to be the number one in the world."

"..."

The VIP guests who were invited to the venue looked calm, but each had their own thoughts in their hearts.

The news came so timely.

Lei Jun and the others are well aware of how 'sharp' the series of things Fang Nian released just now are.

This is not a provocation anymore, it is a direct declaration of war.

Plan to single-handedly challenge the established standards of the entire world.

But as soon as the news came out, Lei Jun and the others, especially Ma Poli and the others suddenly understood why Fang Nian invited him and others.

I'm afraid I won't wait here.

Brand-new standard hardware products mean brand-new application ecological adaptation, which may require the full cooperation of some giant-level application software providers.

They are not misunderstood, but the difference is that no matter whether the Prism Project breaks out or not, Fang Nian intends to forcibly promote the application ecology under the new standard.

But now there is less resistance.

"..."

The mood of everyone in the venue gradually calmed down.

The same goes for live viewers.

"It seems... that's really the case. In the field of personal consumption, Frontier has launched independent and controllable products."

"The frontier is really awesome, it seems that everything has been done ahead."

"So we really have nothing to worry about. As long as cutting-edge products are popularized, privacy and security issues are at least limited to the domestic market."

"And frontier's protection of privacy seems to have always been a model in the industry, and it has been like that since the Nuwa system first came out."

"I should say it or not. Before, I was still wondering why the frontier suddenly launched a brand new ice dragon. Now I understand a little bit, for the sake of autonomy and control."

"I'm thinking that it's the same as the previous nwK, and it has already been filed on it."

"Speaking of which, if our country really values ​​my little privacy, we can just take it away, but Western devils can't, who knows what they want to do."

"The key is that Frontier has become the number one in the world, and it is far ahead in terms of hardware indicators. This is where Frontier's terror research and development capabilities are demonstrated!"

"..."

Speaking of which, the number one in the world that everyone talked about in Nian is not so caring.

Because they take it for granted.

The subconscious already thinks that the frontier is so awesome.

This is the idea that Frontier instills in the public through developer conferences and other forms.

But in fact, the cutting-edge global No. 1 this time is more or less using the rules to bully others.

Especially ice dragons.

An ice dragon that took two years to complete, if it is produced with a 28-nanometer silicon process, its overall performance is actually inferior to that of the Shenlong 521.

It might even be behind Apple's upcoming A7.

When Bai Ze got the urgent authorization of arm's 64-bit instructions, Apple must have also got it. Obviously, A7 will also be a 64-bit processor.

The improvement in overall performance can be terrifying.

No matter who Apple finds as an OEM, the silicon process will be upgraded to 28 nanometers. Even if the ice dragon leads, it will be extremely limited and will not stand out.

So after knowing the relevant expected goals, Fang Nian directly asked Guan Qiuhe to discuss a new cooperation with TSMC.

I used a simple reason to persuade TSMC to make a special trip for Bai Ze to use the 20nm new process as an exclusive OEM:

Only Baize has enough sales, and only Baize has such a strong pursuit of performance.

TSMC will understand at once.

If TSMC disagrees, Baize will immediately switch to another foundry and force them to upgrade their technology. Then TSMC will have a strong competitor and lose Baize, its largest customer.

This is the truth that Ice Dragon 01 leads the world.

It's nothing more than bullying people by the superiority of craftsmanship.

On the contrary, Zhulong and Yu Qiang are really awesome.

This is also a breakthrough from quantitative change to qualitative change triggered by technology accumulation after Qianhai’s mass investment.

"..."

…………

Fang Nian on the stage paced slowly: "It's still a while before 12 o'clock, and it seems that all the important things have been released."

"This may be the longest two hours of my life. I need to talk constantly to avoid silence, and I need to keep everyone from falling asleep as much as possible."

"too difficult."

"..."

As he spoke, Fang Nian sighed vaguely.

Then he said: "Combined with the breaking news just now, let everyone be very afraid of personal privacy security in the past, present, and future;

Not only limited to the ones used by hand, but also panic about deeper things;

so……"

"I brought something new."

"There are slides prepared, but it's still an old rule. Let me briefly talk about it first."

"..."

Live audience: "I have a hunch that Mr. Fang is going to act aggressive again."

"That's right, but personal consumer-grade core hardware has been iterated to be autonomous and controllable, so what else is there?"

"It's too much, let's just talk about the direct collection of data from the servers of the Silicon Valley technology giants mentioned by Snow Deng. Is there some kind of back door that can directly collect the servers that use their products?"

"Oh……"

"Is it going to release server products?"

"..."

As everyone expected, Fang Nian directly mentioned the server field.

"Compared with mobile phones, computers and other items that people often use, servers are unfamiliar areas on a broader level;

But many people also know that this kind of thing is used to provide various services, such as game servers and so on...

As we all know, the server field has always been controlled by European and American technology giants, whether it is the system or the processor, especially the processor, has been almost exclusively monopolized by Intel in recent years;

At first, Frontier did not intend to explore this deep-rooted field, but it is a pity because the large amount of computing power resources required by various researches need to be carried out through servers;

The cost is too high and it's not very useful, so..."

"On the basis of nwK, we have developed a service version of the operating system, the name is very simple, called:"

"Nuwa Service·Dongfanghong."

"There is no English title for this series."

"I can't say how easy it is to use or how good the experience is. I can only say that our frontier has basically been replaced with this system..."

After a while, Fang Nian added: "Because I am the founder of Dangkang, the Dangkang game server has also launched a replacement plan, and the results are not bad;

After all, this is the cloud era, and our cooperative relationship with Bifangyun can be traced back to the day when Bifangyun was established. "

"..."

Before everyone could react too much, Fang Nian immediately mentioned something new.

"Of course, Bai Ze is world-renowned for his chip design capabilities, and it seems that he has sold more than 100 million pieces of various core chips;

Therefore, Bai Ze tried to design a large CPU for the field of high-performance computing by the way;

The result is okay, not satisfactory. "

"Just a little better than Intel's Xeon high-end series, um...whether it is single-core performance or multi-core performance."

"The name is: Ying Long."

"There are also three series of high, middle and low. This is not something in the field of personal consumption, so I won't talk about it. Let's go through the slides."

"..."

This time, the audience was really not excited.

Didn't give too much applause.

No way, I got used to it.

Now even if Frontier takes out a spaceship, saying that it will take interstellar travel tomorrow, they may not be surprised.

The slideshow is still pretty good.

Whether it is "Nuwa Service·Dongfanghong" or "Yinglong", they all focus on introducing some of the key modules.

"Hey, the performance index is quite strong, isn't it?"

"In comparison, it just exploded."

"What do you think of Intel pills?"

"Of course it is so in terms of parameters, but it is far behind in terms of specifics, because these new products do not have the corresponding software environment support, and it is a new system and a new processor, all of which need to be re-adapted , unlike foreign products, which are originally adapted by the software."

"..."

"That is to say, now from mobile phones to computers to servers, the core software and hardware are covered by cutting-edge integration?"

"That's what it means. It's just covered, but whether it can really develop depends on luck. The software environment is too far behind."

"..."

After finishing the slideshow, Fang Nian looked down at the audience: "As everyone expected, Nuwa and Bai Ze's laboratories have made a lot of efforts on behalf of the representatives, and realized the independent research and development of core software and hardware. The key core technology has been established, and the foundation has been established;

But the software, applications, etc. on this basis can be said to be blank;

Today, we also invited several giants of domestic application software providers. Please don’t be stingy and support one or two. "

"Starting from this generation of Nuwa system, we will fully promote the development of 64-bit architecture, which also requires the active cooperation of the majority of development engineers."

"..."

Fang Nian just mentioned one thing, and didn't have any big plans for everyone to answer.

So, after finishing speaking, Fang Nian made a gesture: "Finally, let me spare you a few minutes to watch this comprehensive video."

"..."

There is only one person who appeared on the scene this time: Academician Chen Jianye.

"I am Chen Jianye, a scientist of Frontier Group. I am very happy to bring you a new understanding of Frontier's achievements in the field of hardware."

"..."

"This is our first-generation mobile phone SoC, Shenlong 1."

"..."

"This is our first generation desktop processor: Bailong D1."

"..."

"This is our first generation server processor: Anonymous."

In the video, Academician Chen Jianye introduced each chip prototype placed on the workbench one by one.

Some were launched successfully, some were not.

Products like the prequels of 'Ying Long' are not eligible to be launched.

"..."

Then, Academician Chen Jianye pointed to a new chip: "This is our first-generation FPGA (Field Programmable Logic Gate Array) chip, which does not yet have a name."

"This is our first generation ADC (analog-to-digital converter) chip...

The first generation of DAC (digital-to-analog converter) chips..."

"..."

"The first generation of MEMS (micromachined gyroscopes)..."

"..."

The audience at the venue couldn't help but boil again.

How can you be so good, and start to pervert after talking?

Damn you, you're on the front line!

What the hell is there?

"Damn it, I haven't even heard the names of these chips, what are they doing?"

"Why is the venue so excited?"

"If you have a little understanding of integrated circuits, then you will understand what the frontier does."

"Damn!"

"It's really invincible!"

"..."

Finally, Academician Chen Jianye concluded with a smile: "Although we still have many shortcomings, for example, we are struggling to design FPGA chips with higher requirements;

However, I believe that time will change people's perception of us.

Frontier, starting from the frontier, ending at the frontier, and always the frontier. "

"..."

This is what Chen Jianye is busy with after leaving the mobile phone SoC project team.

What he is better at is not the design of these personal consumer-grade chips, but the design of these industrial-grade, military-grade, and aerospace-grade chips.

To put it simply, before the developer conference, after Fang Nian reported to Miao Wei, Miao Wei had to apply for funding on the spot.

It can be summed up in one sentence: the unit price of a sufficiently good aerospace-grade FPGA chip can be as high as several million, and it is absolutely embargoed.

After the video was played, there was loud applause from the venue.

Most of the 10,000 people present understand the significance of the video just now.

Amid the applause, Fang Nian took the stage calmly again...
