Chapter 0524 ridiculous lobbying
"The visiting lineup is so neat, and the purpose is indeed not that simple." Tang Huan, whose thought flashed, made a gesture of calming his ears.
"Although there is no accurate data statistics, we can basically draw a conclusion that Fangyuan Computer Company is currently the largest memory buyer in the world. Among them, Japanese semiconductor companies account for a large part of the market."
Observing Tang Huan's expression, Robert Noyce slowly said: "At present, in the US-Japan trade, the friction intensity of semiconductor products ranks among the forefront. In this international trade war, the entire US semiconductor industry is already at a disadvantage and is in danger of collective collapse. Therefore, Intel has formed a response alliance with some peers. But this is not enough. We hope to get support from Fangyuan Computer Company. After all, if the situation really deteriorates to an uncontrollable step, the market price will be controlled by Japanese manufacturers at will."
The alliance that Robert Noyce mentioned is not a simplicity. The American business elites who have always liked to develop alone and compete freely have indeed produced practical results.
For example, in October 1981, Intel reached a cooperation agreement with Amd. The two parties agreed to develop new semiconductor products together and could also produce each other's chips. Amd's Intel80286 compatible product, which Amd is about to complete its research and development, is an example.
Of course, in the original time and space, when Intel completely turned its main business to microprocessors and launched Intel80386, it unilaterally terminated the agreement, otherwise Amd would not have been stubborn and dragged the lawsuit into the 1990s.
Last year, in February 1982, 50 American companies secretly agreed to carry out technical cooperation when developing new semiconductor technology to avoid wasting resources caused by repeated investment in funds and manpower.
However, they were soon hit by a headache, with Japan's Fujitsu taking the lead in launching a 256kb dynamic random memory chip.
To be honest, Tang Huan was not interested in this loose alliance that could leave the matter or turn the table up at any time according to his own interests.
You should know that although the entire semiconductor industry carries an extremely brilliant halo of high technology, there are also differences in technical content.
At present, dynamic random memory that has been hit hard by the Japanese and American semiconductor wars is important, but it is not the most valuable area. For example, CPU and digital private gnalprocessor - digital signal processors, namely DSP, are better.
Tang Huan is developing such products including Japanese SSC processors, video chips, audio chips, network chips, etc. While avoiding this kind of industry war with national background behind it, he also enjoys the convenience brought by Japan's cheap Dram to its computer hardware products.
Now Robert Noyce suddenly came and lobbled Fangyuan Computer Company, the world's largest memory buyer, with compassion, to support the US side, which was at a disadvantage in the Japan-US semiconductor war. Tang Huan immediately became vigilant.
How to support it? Could it be that I let my brother take the initiative to give up the cheap and affordable Dram - this convenience delivered to the door?
For the overall interests of your semiconductor company alliance, let me sacrifice local interests?
Isn't this a joke!
If you collapse, you will collapse. Anyway, besides you, I also have Tsai Island, Singapore, South Korea, and even Europe, to make spare tires to avoid the ambition of Japanese manufacturers monopolizing prices in the future.
Tang Huan, who had just participated in a movie and had further improved his acting skills, had a smile on his face and nodded repeatedly with deep consent, "The lips were gone and the teeth were cold. I have to say that your analysis is indeed reasonable. I wonder what Robert wants Fangyuan Computer Company to do?"
"It's very simple. Fangyuan Computer Company tilted the share of purchase orders to the members of our alliance." Robert Noyce indeed made a request according to Tang Huan's guess.
Hearing this, although Tang Huan had already expected it, he still felt angry. "You are determined to be Fangyuan Computer Company and I, don't you dare offend the entire semiconductor industry in the United States?"
"That's it..." Tang Huan raised his voice, "Robert, you may not have noticed that Fangyuan Computer Company has always supported its American counterparts and has handed over considerable orders to Intel, Amd, Motorola and other industry companies. Take Intel80286's purchase for example. There were 100,000 recently, and 300,000 in the medium term, and all of them were very generous prices."
"Intel is a memory company after all." Robert Noyce shook his head slightly with grace, "and we hope that the support provided by Fangyuan Computer Company will also focus on dynamic random memory."
"What is the attitude of ibm, hp, dec, cdc and other large companies that also produce computer products, as well as many other personal computer manufacturers?" Tang Huan asked intriguingly.
"Their purchasing volume cannot be compared with Fangyuan Computer Company. As long as Fangyuan Computer Company takes the lead in making a statement, I believe it will respond. At that time, Fangyuan Computer Company and Tang will become leaders of the entire industry." Robert Noyce bewitched with clever words.
Is my brother's company isolated and helpless like Wang'an Computer Company? Don't try to use the big picture to kidnap me!
Tang Huan sneered in his heart and replied lazily, "Fangyuan Computer Company, like Intel, is a listed public company. Therefore, we need to be responsible for the interests of shareholders. We obviously violate the laws of business operations. We must think twice before we act. Please allow me to consider and hold a meeting to study."
Tang Huan's high-sounding rhetoric made Robert Noyce lose his word for a moment, and the scene suddenly became cold.
Seeing this, Gordon Moore quickly smoothed out the situation and smiled and changed the topic. "I heard that after Ea moved from Cupertino to Redwoodcity - Redwood City, Fangyuan Computer Company also had a migration plan and got land in City Untainview - Mountain View City?"
"Yes, these two companies are already mature enough. If you still stay under my nose and do things, you will only become more and more timid. The eagle will always leave the nest and spread its wings and fly high." Tang Huan showed a sigh of grief of sending her daughter to get married. "This also shows that my influence on ea and Fangyuan Computer Company is inevitably declining."
"Okay, let Tang Huan, the cunning guy, find an excuse to refuse!" Gordon Moore glanced at Robert Noyce in embarrassment, and the meaning was clearly, "Is it necessary to continue talking?"
