The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

Chapter 479 Chapter 494: Comprehensive restrictions on Deep Blue

"Boom~boom~boom"

At this moment the office door rang.

"Come in," Max said after hearing a knock on the door.

A woman in her early forties opened the door and walked in. The woman's expression looked a little panicked.

"What is it?" Max asked.

"Boss, there are a large number of funds in the market that are secretly buying the bottom. They are buying the bottom while smashing the market. Now the stock price has dropped to $100." Emily Stiller said.

"What?" Max said in horror.

In the blink of an eye, Tesla's stock price has dropped to 100 yuan. When it fell to 100 yuan, Tesla's market value fell below 100 billion. The speed of the crash was comparable to an iron ball plummeting down on a 30-story building. , the most important thing is that someone is secretly collecting Tesla’s chips.

"Boss, there are more and more negative news in the market. Should we announce a buyback?" Emily Stiller asked.

Max would like to use the company's funds for repurchase, but these funds are used for production and were written in the contract during last year's financing. If he uses these funds for repurchase, it will violate the financing contract signed with the financier. .

"Announced to the outside world that I personally repurchased 100 million shares, and also released information to all media. Tesla is confident of defeating Deep Blue Motors. The new products Tesla released this afternoon will definitely be the first choice of the entire European people." Max gathered his emotions. Said later.

"Okay, boss." Emily Stiller said and left the office.

at the same time.

The American Semiconductor Association held a meeting again.

Originally, this meeting was supposed to be held the day after Deep Blue Technology released XR glasses. However, because the association's bosses could not coordinate their schedules, it was postponed to today. This meeting was also initiated by Sanjay Melotra of Micron.

Sanjay Melotra initiated the meeting again because he could no longer hold back the spotlight.

DeepBlue Technology's two memory products already account for 68% of the memory market share. Micron's market share has dropped from 22% to less than 6%. The rest of the share has basically been taken away by Korean memory brands.

Shanxing occupies 12% of the market share and Hynix occupies 14% of the market share.

"Everyone knows that Deep Blue Technology released XR glasses. Deep Blue Technology has developed a CPU with its own architecture. They can also independently develop GPUs. Deep Blue Technology's technology has surpassed ours in all aspects.

We can no longer allow Deep Blue Technology to continue to grow. I request the association to comprehensively restrict the development of Deep Blue Technology.

Deep Blue Technology is prohibited from using EDA, manufacturing chips for Deep Blue Technology, and Deep Blue Technology products are prohibited from being sold in Europe. ” said Sanjay Melotra.

"I disagree." Brian Krzanich was the first to jump out and object.

"Brian, the CPU developed by Deep Blue Technology is much stronger than your Intel CPU. If we don't restrict the development of Deep Blue Technology, and Deep Blue Technology will produce and sell CPU chips in the future, what will you use to compete with Deep Blue Technology cards?" Sanjay Melotra said.

Sanjay Merlot had already guessed that there would be objections, but he didn't expect Brian to be the first to object.

"Deep Blue Technology's chips are basically for our own use. If we take action against Deep Blue Technology, we will definitely suffer backlash from Deep Blue Technology, although we can restrict Deep Blue Technology from using the latest chip technology.

But it doesn’t mean that Deep Blue Technology can’t produce chips.

You must know that they can also find SMIC as an OEM. Although SMIC's 28nm is lagging behind, it does not mean that the chips produced are not good.

Since the launch of the XR glasses, I have asked the R&D department to evaluate the Pegasus chip. Even if Deep Blue Technology uses 28 nanometers to produce chips, the chips produced may be comparable to our top products.

If we impose comprehensive restrictions on Deep Blue Technology, Deep Blue Technology will definitely enter the CPU and GPU industries to retaliate. By then, we will not only lose the entire Chinese market, but we may also lose the markets of other countries.

The power of Deep Blue Technology has exceeded our imagination. Peaceful development with Deep Blue Technology is our only choice. What we can do now is to increase research and development efforts and defeat Deep Blue Technology on a technical level.

It is possible to restrict the development of Deep Blue Technology through comprehensive restrictions.

You should have not forgotten what the major memory manufacturers did against Deep Blue Technology. What methods did Deep Blue Technology use to retaliate against them? What if Deep Blue Technology uses the same method to retaliate against us?

I don’t know if anyone has any way to deal with this situation.

You must know that Deep Blue Technology, in addition to producing chips, also has independently developed systems.

Once we take action, it will not only be our semiconductor industry that will suffer, but also the software industry will be implicated, and the entire American high-tech industry will collapse as a result.

The collapse of the high-tech industry will definitely cause a financial tsunami. I wonder if you can bear the consequences? ” said Brian Krzanich.

Brian Krzanich's words made everyone fall into silence. Deep Blue Technology's research and development capabilities are really terrible, and there is no way to stop Deep Blue Technology with such despicable methods.

The only way now is to crush Deep Blue Technology on a technical level.

"Brian, do you think that if Deep Blue Technology doesn't take action, they won't go to war with us? This war will happen sooner or later. If we don't take action, it will just delay it for a period of time. In the future, Deep Blue Technology will definitely start a full-scale war against us.

It is better to restrict the development of Deep Blue Technology before it becomes stronger.

This will buy us more development time. ” Sanjay Melotra sneered.

Many people think Sanjay Melotra's words are very reasonable. A war between Deep Blue Technology and them will happen sooner or later. In this case, why let Deep Blue Technology develop? It is better to take action against Deep Blue Technology now.

"I think Sanjay is right," Kirk Pound said.

"As long as we prohibit TSMC and Sunstar from manufacturing for Deep Blue Technology, their Deep Blue Technology process will always stay at 28 nanometers. We can use the most advanced technology to crush Deep Blue Technology," Cristiano Amon said.

"I agree to limit Deep Blue Technology." Monte Deschanel said.

"In that case, let's vote," Kevin Roach said.

More than half of the Semiconductor Association's directors raised their hands.

"More than half of the people agree to restrict Deep Blue Technology, then the matter of restricting Deep Blue Technology is settled. The cost of lobbying Congress will be shared equally by everyone. I will handle the matter of lobbying Congress." Kevin Roach announced.

In a blink of an eye, it was 02:30 in the afternoon.

In a hotel convention hall in Southern California.At this time, the guests and media invited by Tesla were already present.

"Good afternoon to all my friends here and in front of the TV," the host in a suit said standing in the center of the stage.

"My name is Frank Watto Kachila, and I am the captain of the Tesla design team." Frank Watto Kachila continued.

“I am very happy to invite you to Tesla’s new product launch. Today we are here to talk about Tesla’s new Model 3. Without strong motivation, enthusiasm for the team and unswerving mission, We won't get here.

Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of all my colleagues at Tesla, I would like to invite Mr. Marks. "Frank Wattou Kaqila continued.

At this time, Max walked onto the stage from the right side of the stage. Frank high-fived Max and left.

The audience cheered when Max came on the stage, and of course most of the people replaced were Tesla employees.

“Welcome everyone to the Model 3 launch conference. Today we are going to show off an amazing product. I believe everyone will be shocked, but before that, I want to talk about why we are doing this.

Why does Tesla exist? Why do we make electric cars? Why is this important?

This is because it is very important to accelerate human development towards sustainable transportation.

This is really, really important for the future of the world.

Our carbon dioxide levels are at a new high.

The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has recently exceeded [-] parts per million, and as you can see on this graph, it looks like a vertical line, and it's rising upwards.

The last time there were such high concentrations of carbon dioxide was 1000 million years ago.

Around that time, animals were just beginning to walk upright.

The world is very different than it is now, and we don’t want to go back to where we were before.

As a result, the sharp increase in carbon dioxide at that time will cause the temperature to rise, so we have now allowed the temperature to rise by 2 degrees, but the fact is not only that, because the limit of temperature rise is 20 degrees, if the current situation continues, humans are very likely to thus became extinct.

Therefore, it is very important to accelerate the development of human beings towards sustainable transportation.

It makes all the difference.

In addition to the global warming factor, conventional internal combustion engines also release toxic gases.

According to a study by MIT, 53000 people in the United States die each year due to vehicle exhaust emissions.

As long as cars are still emitting toxic gases, it will be very harmful to human health. In order to solve the problem of car exhaust, we have Tesla’s top-secret plan.”

In the blink of an eye, 10 minutes passed.

The Tesla Model 3 launch event ended in just 10 minutes.

After the press conference, the staff took several reporters to the designated place for an interview with Max.

Several reporters came from The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Journal, The New York Times, The Times.
"Everyone has three opportunities to ask questions. I hope everyone will cherish their opportunities." Max said after arriving at the scene.

"Mr. Max, why is Tesla's power system still using such backward technology? As far as I know, China has completely phased out ternary lithium batteries. Now all electric cars on the market are using graphene batteries." Sang from the New York Times Della Luthor raised her hand first and asked.

"That's because they are afraid of Tesla, so they refuse to sell graphene batteries to Tesla because of insufficient production capacity." Marks said.

"Then I don't know how Tesla plans to solve this problem. As far as I know, the safety of ternary lithium batteries is very poor, and the lifespan of ternary lithium batteries is not as good as graphene batteries, and ternary lithium can also cause pollution to the environment." Sang Della Luther asked again.

"Our laboratory has made certain technological breakthroughs, and I believe new batteries will be used in the near future." Max replied.

"I wonder how Mr. Marks saw the dark blue car?" Sandra Luther asked first.

"Tesla has been immersed in the electric vehicle industry for so many years before it can build a qualified electric vehicle. How do you think it can be better if it takes one year to build an electric vehicle?" Max said with disdain.

"Although Deep Blue Motors only spent a year developing the car, its safety has already reached G level, which is a level that no Tesla has reached. Why does Mr. Marks say Tesla is better than Deep Blue Motors?" ." Sandra Luther asked again.

However, Max did not answer his words, but he had just told them that he would only answer three questions for each person.

Seeing that Max didn't answer, Sandra Luther had no choice but to sit down.

"Mr. Marks, that's the first question I want to ask you," asked Wally Owens of the Washington Daily News.

"The retail price of Model 3 is only US$3.5. If Model 3 sells for US$10, it will not be a problem to achieve G-class." Max replied.

"As far as I know, no Tesla model has reached the G level, and Teslas in the same price range are not as good as Deep Blue. You know, Deep Blue sells for only $4.4 in China. Mr. Marks, what you just said I don’t agree with that statement.” Wally Owens laughed.

"All this is just the promotion of Deep Blue Technology. Have you seen the actual Deep Blue Car? Have you seen a G-class car at this price? The promotion of Deep Blue Car is obviously fake," Max said.

"Mr. Max, Deep Blue Cars conducted live tests during the test. I believe that no one here will agree with your statement." Wally Owens shook his head.

"You will know whether it is true or not when the Deep Blue car is launched. If you think there is really no problem, then you can buy a Deep Blue car yourself. Your opportunity to ask questions has been used up. The next reporter can ask questions." Max said.

Wally Owens curled his lips and sat down. He didn't believe that Deep Blue Technology would fake it. Max was obviously tough-talking.

"Mr. Marks, do you think Deep Blue Technology's cars are better than Tesla's cars? Which one is better, Tesla's technology or Deep Blue's technology?" Wall Street Journal reporter Shatila Dagan asked.

"When will Deep Blue Technology be able to build rockets? Let them compete with our car-making technology. They will be our little brothers. You have to know that building cars is not making mobile phones. As long as you have money, you can build mobile phones." .

But building electric cars is not as simple as you think. Building cars is much more complicated than building mobile phones. Max said with a proud look on his face.

"If making a mobile phone is really that easy, why doesn't Tesla make a mobile phone?" Shatila Dagan said.

"I have already answered your question just now, because making mobile phones is too simple for us, and mobile phones cannot change the earth's environment." Max said.
