Chapter 2389 Radical

Lao Ma got out of the car and looked at the increasingly prosperous town at the foot of the Great Wall. It can't even be called a town anymore. It has rapidly expanded into a city with a strong high-tech style.

The strange-looking aircrafts over the airport are a representative of this style.

"What a beautiful country!" Lao Ma put his hands on his hips and looked at the Great Wall over there, then looked at the city over here, and loudly expressed his passion.

As soon as he finished speaking, a drone with several rotors over the airport screamed and fell crookedly, and he suddenly had a toothache.

Is it okay? You are so disrespectful!

"Mr. Ma," Wu Qian was smiling and greeting him next to an electric car with cute big eyes at the side of the parking lot.

"Hello, Wu Qian," Lao Ma pointed over there, "Is there anything wrong with that?"

"No, in Yiping's words, they have already gained experience from falling," Wu Qian said.

"Haha, it sounds like a lot of crashes?" Old Ma laughed, "Then there should be a lot of achievements, right?"

"I think so," Wu Qian said, "Boss Ma, let's go this way,"

Due to the preference of the person in charge Pan Shimin, drones and related departments have now achieved fruitful results, including relatively deep accumulation in aerodynamics, but even so, there is still no guarantee that the drones they developed will not have problems during the verification flight stage.

Fortunately, relatively speaking, the loss of crashing a drone is not great.

In terms of safety, if there is such a large airport for them to test fly, and the crash can still cause an accident, such as hitting someone, then the team can be dismissed.

Old Ma looked at the lush and leafy roadside trees on the roadside, which already had some momentum to cover the sky and the sun, "The greening work here is really first-class,"

Wu Qian nodded, "I heard that these are handled by a team of relevant experts from the Forestry College and the Agricultural University,"

No wonder they look so good and beautiful, Old Ma suddenly felt that everything he saw here had a strong taste of money.

"The e-commerce park must replicate the achievements here," he said immediately.

Wu Qian smiled and said nothing. It was not easy for her to comment on such a thing.

The electric car drove in this very quiet and peaceful town for nearly 20 minutes, and finally stopped in front of a small building surrounded by trees and fenced behind the trees in the central area.

Although this small building looks very simple, it is the only building with a fence outside that Lao Ma has seen in the town. It is conceivable that this small building should not be simple.

It is indeed not simple.

Soon after entering the door, a staff member came up and took away Lao Ma's personal belongings, and then passed a security check gate. "Could it be that there is a big leader inside?" Lao Ma joked.

He knew this was impossible. So far, this town has never been inspected by relevant officials. There may be exceptions in the future, but it is estimated that people will only take a glimpse. Unless it is a big leader, those core departments will be opened.

In a small conference room in the building, Lao Ma finally saw Feng Yiping and his group. He was chatting with the expert-like people around him at this time. Hearing the noise, he smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, you are finally here,"

"Yiping, Mr. Jin, hello!" Lao Ma sat down in the empty seat and looked across at the experts who looked unfamiliar to him.

"Everyone is here, so let's get started," Feng Yiping stood up.

"Before, I asked all the experts to select the areas that the π department should develop. As a result, several experts in different fields mentioned a common direction, chips,"

Lao Ma looked at the participants. It seems that this is the theme of today.

He saw that several people, such as Zhou Xingyu, were a little confused when they heard this topic again.

I don't understand!

"It just so happens that I personally have some ideas about this aspect,"

"I have seen the situation of our country's chip imports over the years. The amount is very large. I think it will not be long before it will exceed the 100 billion US dollar mark,"

"In addition to some predictions about future development, I estimate that it will not be long before the value of our annual chip imports will likely exceed another major item that everyone knows, crude oil,"

Others don't understand how much crude oil imports are, but Lao Ma still understands that the demand for chips will be so high, higher than the amount of imported crude oil?

If so, this can be said to be a field with huge opportunities.

"Mr. Feng is right," said Academician Zhou, an expert in this field, "In the future, with the increase of various smart devices, our demand for various chips will grow rapidly, and the import amount will exceed 100 billion US dollars. It seems that it will not take long,"

"The main reason is naturally because China has not made any achievements in the field of chips. Speaking of this, we insiders are really ashamed," said Academician Zhou, who has some gray hair.

"Academician Zhou, you don't have to blame yourself at all," Feng Yiping said, "Our country's development in the field of chips is indeed not good, but from my analysis, the reason why we lack 'chips' is mainly because we lack money,"

"And through analyzing some successful companies in the industry, I have come to a conclusion that there is actually only one strategy for developing in the chip industry, which is very simple and crude: either you use money to kill your opponent, or you are killed by your opponent's money,"

"How much has our country invested in this area? I roughly counted it. From 1991 to now, it has only been more than 1 billion US dollars."

"For chip research and development, such investment is almost nothing. Compared with such investment, the progress we have made so far should be said to be very consoling."

"Because it is difficult to make chips, it is even more difficult to make core chips. Everyone knows that making chips that require an ecosystem will definitely be more difficult than you think, so not many companies will invest heavily in this area."

"After all, now is a time to make quick money and easy money."

He obviously meant something else. Lao Ma thought he would talk about real estate as usual, but he didn't.

"Mr. Feng means that the company is going to invest in this area?" Academician Zhou asked.

"Yes, Academician," Feng Yiping nodded, "I like such challenging projects,"

"Of course, this decision is not based on such emotional reasons," Feng Yiping smiled.

"We all know that there are two kinds of opportunities in the market: one is certain and the other is uncertain,"

"Chips in the middle and upper reaches of the industrial chain are the core components of most electronic products. Although the industry has cyclical ups and downs, they are necessary at any time, at most they are technological upgrades,"

"So, this is a certain opportunity,"

Hearing Feng Yiping say this, the company executives, including Lao Ma, were all a little excited. No matter how difficult this project is to implement, since Feng Yiping clearly said that this is a certain opportunity, then this must be an opportunity to seize.

Feng Yiping then said, "So, this is an opportunity worth investing in,"

The experts were even happier to hear Feng Yiping's words.

The reasons Feng Yiping analyzed before are indeed rough but true.

The reason why we have not made much progress in the chip field is indeed because we have invested too little in this area.

However, this is indeed a high-risk field.

"Mr. Feng, we are very happy to hear that you have made such a decision, but the development of the chip field will involve a wide range of areas, and you must also know that the success of any chip research and development cannot be separated from a complete ecosystem," said Academician Zhou.

Feng Yiping nodded.

"So, I think it would be safer for us to start the project after getting the country's approval?" Academician Zhou said, "In that case, we should be able to get the corresponding subsidies and support."

He originally wanted to ask if the country could invest together, but even these experts knew Feng Yiping's temper, and he probably wouldn't like such a proposal.

"That would be better, but even if there is no relevant support and subsidy, I think it doesn't matter much. After all, there is no high-tech company in the world that can grow up simply by relying on government support."

"Winning market recognition is more important than getting the country's approval and support."

"Besides, this opportunity is a clear and certain opportunity, so we can bet heavily. Fortunately, we will not be short of RMB or US dollars in the future," Feng Yiping said loudly.

"Haha," although they didn't know why it was like this, everyone laughed at this time.

Because they knew that with Feng Yiping's identity, saying such a thing, then the company would be very rich in the future.

"As for the ecosystem you mentioned, I think that's not a problem either,"

"We can fully predict that in the future, smart mobile devices represented by smartphones will have a huge demand for chips, and our Android system will definitely become the main system installed on smart devices including mobile phones in the future,"

"We are relying on Android to form an open mobile phone alliance, which includes chip companies, operators, well-known Internet companies, and mobile phone companies,"

"It can be said that with Android, it is not difficult to build an ecosystem,"

"At the same time, we can see how many projects we have in this park that will require chips?" Feng Yiping asked.

"I think all the projects in our park are inseparable from chips,"

"Our drone project, our electric car project, and the products of our magic workshop all require a large number of chips,"

"In the future, it will be an era of the Internet of Everything. The clothes we wear, the shoes we wear, our glasses, our watches, and all the equipment in the conference room can be connected to each other... In other words, all of this is inseparable from chips,"

Lao Ma just said to Zhou Xingyu next to him, "Isn't that a scene from a science fiction movie?"

Feng Yiping immediately said, "Yes, the future will be so sci-fi,"

"We have our own chips, which will naturally bring advantages to our own products that require chips, and our products that require chips will also be a guarantee of our chip shipments,"

"Moreover, we can boldly predict that future smartphones will definitely be like home appliances such as color TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, and microwave ovens. Our country will be a major producer. We only need to grasp the domestic market to achieve great development,"

"Mr. Feng," said Academician Zhou, "There is still a great shortage of relevant talents in China,"

"That's not a problem," Feng Yiping said, "We can spend a lot of money to recruit people from South Korea, Japan, the United States, and Europe,"

"There are so many Tsinghua alumni in Silicon Valley. I don't believe that we can't recruit them as long as the conditions are in place?"

At least his current reputation will be a great bonus for recruiting people.

"For those rare talents, we can give them a CEO salary. Isn't it just throwing money? We are not short of money,"

Lao Ma stood up and applauded.

Since there is no shortage of money, it seems that I have to take on more projects.

Feng Yiping pressed his hands down, "Drucker, next, this is one of the key points of the work of the human resources department,"

"Okay Feng," Drucker said.

"Mr. Feng, which chip do you want us to start with?" Academician Zhou asked.

"CPU, we must do it," Feng Yiping said.

Academician Zhou nodded, this is not surprising.

"In addition, GPU is very important,"

"Also, in terms of storage, we should also break the monopoly..."

Lao Ma found that the experts on the other side opened their eyes and mouths wide at this time. What happened?

"Mr. Feng," Academician Zhou spoke, sounding a little uncertain, "In other words, we have to develop all the main chips?"
