Rebirth of the Cyber ​​Hegemony

With Friends.com and the launch of Huanyu Video, Chen Yu became more and more confident in financing.

Previously, friends.com and Huanyu Video were invested by a group of venture capital giants chasing after themselves.

This time, Chen Yu also had to make a full gesture.

"Okay, about the financing, let's wait for Mr. Chen to come back."

Although Weibo is short of money, financing is not at this moment.

After communicating with Wang Chang, Chen Yu was going to visit several companies in the United States.

"Mr. Chen, where are you going?"

"Nvidia."

There are many layouts of Huanyu Technology, but they are not comprehensive.

Chen Yu only laid out some key places, but there are still many more important places that he failed to take care of.

For example, the GPU.

The so-called GPU, that is, graphics display chip, you can also think of him as a graphics card.

Among PC products, there are three most important chips.

One is the CPU, also known as the central processing unit.

The other is the GPU, the graphics display chip, which determines the quality of the image of an electronic product.

The third is the motherboard chipset.

At present, Universal Technology only has a layout of CPU, but GPU and motherboard chipset have not entered much.

At the most critical moment in the future, GPU and motherboard chipset can sometimes become a fatal limitation.

The reason why Chen Yu wants to go to Nvidia is that Nvidia is the most famous graphics chip manufacturer in the world.

A more important reason is that the founder and CEO of Nvidia is called Huang Renxing.

Yes.

He is a Chinese American.

You may be a little unfamiliar with NVIDIA, but you must have seen the NVIDIA logo.

NVIDIA is the English name of Nvidia.

At the same time, you can often see the NVIDIA discrete graphics card logo on many computers or notebooks.

Huang Renxing was very interested in Chen Yu's visit.

"Mr. Chen, I have admired your name for a long time."

"Mr. Huang, you are too polite. You are my senior. This time, I have come here specially to learn from you."

"What are you studying? I have something worthy of your learning. By the way, don't call me Mr. Huang. People who know me well call me Lao Huang, so you can call me Lao Huang."

"Old Huang, haha, I heard your nickname before I came here."

Chen Yu nodded and was not polite: "Then you don't want to talk to Mr. Chen, I'm too embarrassed to call you, just call me by my name."

"It's just right, Chen Yu, it's refreshing to talk like this."

Huang Renxing slapped his hands: "Come on, let me make you a cup of tea. Congratulations, you Huanyu Technology has won a big victory recently."

"Victory?"

"Why, isn't it? Your Weibo stopped the promotion of Intel's dual-core processors, and also affected the market share of Microsoft Vista. What is this if it's not a victory?"

"This is..."

Chen Yu smiled bitterly: "This can only be regarded as a small partial victory at best, not a victory. Moreover, facing Intel and Microsoft, we have always been passive defensive."

"Intel and Microsoft are very powerful. Any company in the world facing them is similar to you."

The IT circle looks big, but it's actually very small.

Anything that happens in this market is clearly seen by other companies.

But Chen Yu didn't come to Nvidia today to discuss their battle with Intel.

The purpose of his coming today is to fool Mr. Huang.

"Old Huang, I heard that AMD contacted you not long ago?"

"Contact us?"

Lao Huang said with a smile: "We deal with AMD almost every day. I don't know what contact you are talking about?"

"About the acquisition."

"Acquisition?"

When he said this, Lao Huang seemed a little surprised: "amd's main business is cpu, and they haven't entered the graphics card business much."

"Because they haven't entered the graphics card business much, they have more demand for the graphics card business."

"Chen Yu, tell me your point of view."

"In fact, everyone understands the truth. The latest Intel dual-core incident will affect AMD's future layout. There is no doubt that in the CPU field, no matter how hard AMD works, no matter how innovative their technology is, they will not be able to compete with Intel. And , Intel has a graphics card business, and will even enter the discrete graphics card business in the future. This will be a bigger challenge for amd.”

"Makes sense."

Huang Renxing nodded, but shook his head after a while and said, "But it's true that AMD has never had contact with us in this regard."

"strangeness."

Chen Yu pretended to be surprised: "But the news I got is that amd has already contacted ATI."

Of course Amd didn't contact ATI, this was completely fooled by Chen Yu.

As for why Chen Yu dared to fool around like this.

Because after chatting with Lao Huang this time, he will go to ATI.

Chapter 1027: After fooling ATI, then continue to fool AMD

"ATI willing to sell?"

"What do you think?"

"It's hard to say."

"It is true. No one can say for sure about this kind of thing."

If you want to say that Nvidia's biggest competitor is ATI, which is also a discrete graphics card.

Even, ATI was once the leader in the graphics card industry.

However, in recent years, Nvidia has performed well, but some have robbed ATI of the limelight.

"It is."

Hearing the news suddenly, Huang Renxing looked very surprised.

However, the news that Chen Yu suddenly told him made Huang Renxing suspicious.

"Chen Yu, where did you hear the news?"

"Where did you hear the news? It's a commercial secret, so I can't tell you, Huang."

Huang Renxing's suspicion was heard, but Chen Yu remained calm.

He was going to fool Huang Renxing today, so he was well prepared.

Huang Renxing, who can become an industry leader, is definitely not something that can be fooled by simply saying a few words.

Immediately, regarding Huang Renxing's suspicion, Chen Yu said unhurriedly: "Old Huang, don't you think this is an opportunity?"

"Chance?"

Huang Renxing was a little surprised: "AMD is buying us, not us buying AMD. What kind of opportunity is this?"

Obviously, the market value of Nvidia is far lower than that of AMD.

If you really want to buy, AMD will buy Nvidia, it is impossible for Nvidia to buy AMD.

However, Chen Yu changed the subject and said, "Mr. Sanders is over 60."

Huang Renxing suddenly realized what he said.

He suddenly understood what Chen Yu meant.

In fact, Huang Renxing really doesn't have much interest in AMD's acquisition.

He has always been used to being the boss, so he is not willing to be inferior to others.

The reason why Chen Yu said that he was still very interested in chatting with him was because he wanted to inquire about the future direction of the industry.

However, when Chen Yu mentioned that Mr. Sanders was over 60, he immediately understood what Chen Yu meant.

If Nvidia was acquired by AMD, but he was the CEO, that would be another matter.

of course.

This is impossible for some other companies.

But in the case of AMD, there is really a trace of feasibility.

Although Mr. Sanders is the founder of AMD, he is old after all, and he has managed AMD for nearly 30 years.

Although Sanders performed well in 30 years, after all, the business was not particularly improved.

Even if there is still some market share, it has been suppressed by Intel.

As early as a few years ago, at the AMD shareholders meeting, it was mentioned to look for a professional manager again.

But because firstly, there is no suitable target, and secondly, more people support Sanders for the time being on the issue of shares.

In the end, Mr. Sanders has always controlled AMD.

But if AMD intends to acquire Nvidia at this time, Sanders' stake will definitely change.

As long as other shareholders are willing to support Huang Renxing as the general manager of AMD, everything will be a matter of course.

It has to be said that Huang Renxing was very interested in this challenge.

Although the graphics card business is good, where is the processor business so challenging?

Moreover, whether it is popularity or influence, AMD is much better than Nvidia.

If he serves as the general manager of AMD, he can manage AMD's CPU business and take care of his graphics card business.

Even if Nvidia is sold to AMD now, what's the point?

"Chen Yu, I have to say, you fooled me."

Huang Renxing told the truth.

"I never fool around. Well, I will handle this matter. However, I can't guarantee it."

"no problem."

Huang Renxing nodded happily: "Anyway, I have nothing to lose. I only have one request, and I want to be the CEO. If I can't agree, then I can't sell Nvidia."

"learn."

Chen Yu also nodded: "However, we at Universal Technology must acquire 1% of AMD's shares."

"make a deal."

Talking to smart people is that simple.

After talking with Huang Renxing, Chen Yu went to ATI.

Nvidia's biggest competitor is ATI.

He Guoyuan, the founder of ATI.

Isn't it strange, why is it a Chinese name again?

The world is so wonderful.

In fact, many talented Chinese have created countless amazing legends in the IT industry.

The founder of Nvidia is Chinese, and He Guoyuan, the founder of ATI, is also Chinese.
