Chapter 700: A Unique IT Industry
It should be said that the political views of donkeys and elephants are completely different, and their attitudes towards the real economy are also completely different.
In Elephant's view, only very large computers are considered high technology. What kind of personal PC is yours, is it different from that PS game console?
Now it seems that there are still rumors claiming that the calculation speed of the PS3 game console is much faster than that of the current mainstream PC.
"Export restrictions? Tom, are you sure you're not joking, silly Damu is going to use the game console to launch missiles? You're playing Red Alert, right?"
Pfft, the little assistant at the side couldn't hold back anymore, and maybe felt a little rude, twisted his waist and disappeared. Probably hid somewhere to laugh.
"Well, boss, I don't know if the idiot plays games or not. Those high-income groups in Iraq are not against these electronic products."
"Fuck, let's limit it, let's keep a low profile at this time.
By the way, you can make a statement to the outside world. The world of legends is peace-loving. We don't want our products to be used for military purposes. In the next version, we may weaken some functions. "
What, Tom is so hung up that he didn't pass out, and he has never seen you like this. In this way, can you still buy PS3 in the market? This is a wave of extreme promotions.
"Ahem, well, I know the boss, I'll go get ready right away." Tom walked away lightly. His task now is to quickly replenish the stock. As for William White, he was educating Lisa. Well, it's really rude to have to give a serious education.
Unlike the ignorance of elephants, donkeys have always supported the IT industry. These bigwigs in Silicon Valley also like to treat donkeys as their own.
If you want to counterattack Shenma in the United States, the possibility of success is actually very limited. You don't even have to think about the traditional field, even William White dare not set foot in it lightly.
Silicon Valley is different. Even if there are several IT giants here, they cannot form any monopoly. As long as you have a good idea, it is possible to realize your ideal.
When you stand on the streets of Wall Street today, you must hear many people say that the world is difficult. Meanwhile, the heartland of Silicon Valley is a different story.
No one has time to sigh, they are either busy making money, or they are busy fooling around with money. The traces left by the great earthquake have basically disappeared.
"Boss, the boy from Arkansas won, which may be a major benefit for the IT industry."
"Yeah, the elephant is too pedantic and too old. If these guys don't change, they really can't do as well as donkeys." Although he knew this result, William White was still a little sad. The times are advancing, how can you do it if you don’t change.
Yes, since the world has the Internet, its pattern has been changing.
Speaking of which, why did the ancient aristocratic families have been able to continue, even if there were some wars, they would not cut off their inheritance. This magic weapon is actually knowledge. Even if you become an emperor riding a horse and herding sheep, you cannot govern the country at all without the help of literati.
As for the role of the Internet?
It actually lowers the barrier to entry for you to acquire knowledge. Before that, if you lived in a small town, you really had no way to learn about the world. The world in your eyes, the very real world, really doesn't matter.
However, not many people understand all this right now, at least, a group of elephant politicians don't quite understand. Computers are of course useful in their eyes. For example, if you plan to land on the moon, the speed of this calculation is very important.
The United States is a very strange place. You say that its technology is very good13, which is basically a fact. As for the actual application, the gap is really too big.
This is the case in the Internet era, and it is still the case in later mobile terminals. Apart from playing games and watching the news, I think that's basically all there is to it.
mobile payment?
Ahem, this thing should not be possible within a hundred years. Rabbit Country popularized mobile payment before credit cards were popularized. This is simply a miracle, or leapfrog development.
If you are not abroad, you will have no way to understand what a credit card means to a foreign financial system.
This shit is not a technical problem at all. If a company like Alipay appears, a large number of banks will have to close their doors and go out of business.
There are very few banks that survive on the spread between deposits and loans. Not to mention whether there are losses or gains in investment, credit card income occupies a considerable proportion, which is what people rely on for survival.
Well, it seems that the interest rate is not too high.
Cough cough, if you pay it off in one go, of course there is no problem, there is basically no interest. Of course, if there are too many people like you, the bank will go bankrupt.
Yes, minimum repayments. Quite a few people in Laomei pay this back every month. This Nima is much higher than the interest on housing loans.
"Filson, the economic recovery has slowed down a bit. If it had been two months earlier, the outcome would have been hard to tell."
"Yes, boss, the stock market has already reacted in advance. If they care more about the IT industry..."
William White smiled wryly, what do you have to say to a group of cowboys. For them, game consoles are very good, and this thing has nothing to do with high technology.
However, Intel and IBM should not sit still. Nima, personal PCs are not as good as game consoles, is this black humor?
"Michael, you don't have to worry about it. P5 will be released soon. This embarrassing situation won't last for too long." While comforting his good friend, Qiao Dashen was actually aggrieved. Dell's computer was complained about, and so was he, Qiao Dashen.
"Steve, those computers of yours are different. If you didn't sell them too expensive, no one would say anything."
Master Qiao is a little depressed, we don't bring such a face-slapping old iron, if we continue talking like this, we won't have much to talk about.
"Michael, how many units you sell in a year and how many units I sell in a year are completely different things. By the way, third-party GPUs have already appeared. What are you struggling with?"
"William White, bastard, do you know that the one you bought is called the professional version, and the one you provided to us is called the public version. I heard that there will be a game version in the future. The core chips are all the same, why does he have so many tricks. "
William White didn't know that the two bastards were complaining about him, and if he knew, he wouldn't care. Nima, why am I the richest man in the world, but you are not, this is the gap.
GPU and CPU are the same, the same assembly line, the physical fitness is not the same. Some 40 Hz will not work, basically like an oven, some 60 Hz are very good, if you don't disassemble them and sell them, wouldn't it be a disadvantage for you guys.
Of course, with the continuous improvement of production technology, the quality of products will also get better and better. At this time, some functions need to be artificially castrated.
Shameless?
Hehe, I saw that Intel didn't have it later, they just don't use 7nm technology. Since 14nm can beat AMD, if their bosses hadn't had their brains twitched, they would definitely not change it.
From this point of view, monopoly enterprises are indeed a stumbling block to technological progress. As long as these guys exist, the advancement of technology must go according to their wishes.
Of course, this group of guys will definitely be killed by themselves in the end. If you continue to squeeze toothpaste like this, the mobile terminal will not give up the chance to catch up. In three to five years at most, computers may also become unnecessary.
Hehe, by then, there will be many dead technology companies.
