Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 1472
Computer cost control belongs to the category of hardware.

The technology researched by Chen Jianghai's computer company must be related to software or hardware assembly.

These two aspects are completely complementary to each other.

Only when software develops better will it drive the development of hardware.

The development of software is very fast, but the development of hardware is not as fast as software.

In Lei Dajun's view, it is not easy for hardware to improve in the past few years.

If hardware equipment does not improve, then the price of computers will not come down.

The idea mentioned by Chen Jianghai naturally no longer exists.

"Mr. Chen, the computer company you set up is not trying to do hardware, right?" Lei Dajun raised his own question.

Chen Jianghai smiled slightly and asked, "Why not?"

Upon hearing the news, Lei Dajun was in a daze.

Regarding this computer company, people all over the country are speculating on what software Qiu Hai will develop first.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jianghai made a decision that was contrary to everyone else's. He wanted to develop hardware first!

In terms of software, Huaxia is at least somewhat technical.

But in terms of hardware, basically all patented technologies are in the hands of large foreign companies.

It is extremely difficult for China to fight its way out of this field.

Therefore, almost all Chinese technology companies will not consider this matter.

After all, it is no different from an idiot telling a dream.

This is true even for Lenovo Group, which is recognized as the strongest.

At this time, Lei Dajun really admired Chen Jianghai's decision and courage.

It is really admirable that a successful person like Chen Jianghai dares to make such a decision in an unfamiliar field.

Because usually, those who dare to make such a decision are either newborn calves or out-and-out dreamers.

Even if Lei Dajun owned a company as big as Qiu Hai, he would not dare to make such a decision.

It is really a technical blockade in the hardware field, which is too serious.

If China wants to make a breakthrough, it will encounter more problems than usual.

This is not to say that scientific researchers and the scientific research environment are not good, but that the international environment is not good.

Computer hardware technology is all in the hands of large foreign companies.

China has been lagging behind others for more than ten years. It is a fantasy to catch up in such a short time with completely independent research.

Especially in terms of high-precision technology such as chips, China has no advantage at all.

As for why this is so, of course there are historical reasons.

In fact, as early as the 70s, China's chip technology was more advanced than many countries.

But that time was precisely the most difficult time in China.

Almost everyone believes that heavy industry is the focus of development.

At the same time, the country still has a planned economy.

From establishment to implementation of a chip project, it takes two to three years just for approval.

By the time the project starts, foreign technology has already surpassed China's.

With the arrival of the 90s, the country began to pay attention to chip projects.

However, the domestic chip consumption market has not yet been formed.

Under such circumstances, no one dares to risk investing all such a large sum of money in chip research.

Even if the chip is developed, there will be no way to sell it in the end.

Without income, it is almost impossible for this enterprise to survive.

The chip project simply cannot be carried out solely relying on government policy support.This is a vicious cycle of paradoxes that almost no one can change.

Almost everyone has recognized the fact that the gap between China's research on chips and foreign countries is really too big, and it is simply impossible to achieve overtaking in corners.

To take a very simple example, the current foreign chip manufacturing process is about 250 nanometers.

China's current chip manufacturing process is still around [-] to [-] nanometers.

From this data, we can see how big the gap is between the two.

This huge gap is difficult to make up even without any interference.

Not to mention the country’s technological blockade, it will be even harder to catch up.

In 91, the domestic chip manufacturing process had developed to [-] nanometers.

At this time, foreign chip manufacturing processes have reached terrifying single digits.

It can only be said that China did not focus on this in the early stage, and it is normal for the gap to be widened in the later stage.

Lei Dajun feels that it is completely unrealistic to catch up with foreign technology in this aspect.

Even if Chen Jianghai owns a large enterprise like Qiu Hai, there is nothing he can do.

The technological gap cannot be bridged simply with money.

At this time, Lei Dajun looked at Chen Jianghai with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Logically speaking, as the most successful entrepreneur in the country, Chen Jianghai is still his idol, so he shouldn't have such an expression.

However, in Lei Dajun's view, Chen Jianghai's decision was too arrogant.

It can be described as extremely crazy and completely unrealistic.

The industry gap that cannot be bridged by any country cannot be shortened by Chen Jianghai alone.

No matter how good Chen Jianghai is, no matter how powerful the Qiuhai Group he controls, they can't change this fact!

"Mr. Chen, I think your idea is a bit far-fetched." Lei Dajun shook his head and replied.

Lei Dajun couldn't believe what Chen Jianghai said.

If we talk about the free model mentioned by Chen Jianghai, Lei Dajun thinks it is still possible.

But Lei Dajun didn't believe it at all about this chip.

Even if Chen Jianghai is his idol, it cannot change Lei Dajun's understanding of the chip industry.

Compared with China's domestic chip industry and its foreign counterparts, the gap is as insurmountable as a chasm.

In just a few years, it is simply wishful thinking to catch up with the technological level of foreign countries.

Chen Jianghai was not surprised at all by Lei Dajun's reaction and suddenly laughed.

"You haven't done it, how do you know it won't work? What's the difference between a person without ideals and a salted fish?"

Lei Dajun didn't know how to answer Chen Jianghai's statement for a moment.

But he also saw Chen Jianghai's determination.

Obviously, Chen Jianghai was determined to deal with this matter.

After being silent for a while, Lei Dajun suddenly stood up and said, "Mr. Chen, I understand what you mean. I can't make the decision on this request. I have to report it to our chairman."

After the exchange just now, Lei Dajun felt that the cognitive gap between him and Chen Jianghai was too far.

In other words, the business model advocated by Chen Jianghai was so subversive that he could not recognize it at all.

Jinshan is now in an era of financial difficulties.

If all adopt a free model, it will be a disaster for the company.

Because it is simply impossible to have that much money to cope with expenses.

Will go bankrupt soon.
