Chapter 1046 Ming Lord
The competition between Zhou Shi and Zuckerberg may not be considered a competition. The two move in different directions, and there will be more or less friction in the middle. The relationship between the two is pretty good, especially Zhou Shi calls him or his secretary from time to time, about Wang Xirui.
The NBA's finals reached the fifth game, and it was still the Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers. The score of the first four games was 2-2, and the two teams drew. The fifth game was called the "Fight of Kings Mountain" and was a key game to win the final. Although there was little hope, Zhou Shi was originally planning to invite Wang Xirui to watch the game again. However, after receiving a call from someone, he gave up this idea.
"Are you really going to quit?" Zhou Shi asked Jim Keller in the Warriors' box. He is the chief architect of Amd and later called the father of "zen" architecture by the media.
"Yes, the new architecture design has been completed, and with the advanced process of licensed semiconductors, amd has the capital to challenge Intel, and there are not many places to need me here." Jim Keller
"How is it possible? You can improve the technical level of amd!" Zhou Shi
"There are a group of geniuses in amd that they are on the right path and can succeed without me." Jim Keller
Amd's CEO was replaced by Su Zifeng, the woman who was related to Nvidia's leather jacket Huang. In the past two years, Amd has not developed much, except to move closer to artificial intelligence and autonomous driving, and has improved its position as the GPU department, and has basically done nothing in the market. However, since Franchise Semiconductor acquired part of Grofontein's business and Amd's foundry contract was transferred to Franchise Semiconductor, the stock price began to rise.
Advanced processes have a great impact. Even if the existing CPUs do not make any improvements, they only improve process technology, and their performance and power consumption can be greatly improved. Not to mention the emergence of the Zen architecture, which almost surpasses Intel in performance. So Jim Keller said that Amd was successful, which was not surprising at all.
"Have you really made a decision?" Zhou Shi knew that geniuses always had all kinds of quirks, and they were not short of money and were unwilling to work for money. Since he had made a decision, it would be difficult for him to change anything.
"Yes, I've decided!" Jim Keller
"That's really a pity... It's really a pity, I..." Zhou Shi was a little
"What are the regrets?" Jim Keller
"I regret that we don't have the opportunity to work together. I was going to wait for Amd to have hope, so I invited you to help me build the open source architecture of mips, and lay a solid foundation for future AI chips and create a new legend..." Zhou Shi
"Are I leaving Amd, Mr. Zhou not going to cooperate with me?" Jim Keller
"How could it be, but..." Zhou Shi was a little nervous
"Don't Yahoo welcome me to join?" Jim Keller
"Welcome, of course, welcome, this is what I dream of..." Zhou Shi stood up excitedly and stood up.
"So I hope we can cooperate happily!" Jim Keller
"Happy cooperation!" Zhou Shi was still a little confused.
Until the game was over, Zhou Shi and Jim Keller had a lot of chatting, but he was still a little confused.
"This is very simple. He was moved by your sincerity!" Wei He said calmly after hearing Zhou Shi's doubts.
"My sincerity?" Zhou Shi was confused
"Jim Keller is a genius person. You want him to join the mips open source architecture team. After learning that Jim Keller decided to work at Amd, he resolutely decided to acquire Amd. Although he was only a major shareholder of Amd, your desire for talent has deeply touched many people. Especially Jim Keller, this was not a favor of knowing his feelings in ancient times, but a rare wise master, and it was the priority that most people would give priority to. Jim Keller's choice is not surprising." Wei He
"I, I didn't choose to acquire Amd because of Jim Keller. He just reminded me that Amd still has great value..." Zhou Shi
"Then let this matter become a beautiful misunderstanding!" Wei He thought about it and said
"But do other geniuses feel unfair..." Zhou Shi, not to worry about being weak but injustice, this is a famous saying, one of the natures of human nature. Jim Keller is a genius, but Zhou Shi needs not only a semiconductor chip design genius, but a genius in all aspects. Many geniuses with personality are many people with introverted and weird scrupulous people. If Zhou Shi treats Jim Keller with special preference, then what should he do to satisfy the other party if he meets a genius who is better than him? Will that genius choose a company with lower actual treatment than him because he feels that he has not received the expected respect? A boss cannot even pay the company's bonus at will, let alone the super-national treatment, and should be more cautious.
"This is a big problem!" Wei He heard Zhou Shi's concern and felt that this matter was a bit complicated, mainly because the unclear way of spreading rumors made it difficult to refute rumors.
"It's better not to misunderstand everyone!" Zhou Shi
"Then find a reporter and ask about this matter at the right time!" Wei He
"That's all!" Zhou Shi
Although Amd lacks Jim Keller, Zhou Shi is not very worried. First of all, although Jim Keller is the chief architect, the soul of this architecture, or plays a key role, on the one hand, he has completed the foundation laying, and the remaining work of Amd is qualified. On the other hand, even if the technology is not so advanced, Zhou Shi can still make up for it with the market.
In terms of CPU, as long as it can control energy consumption well, whether it is time or Yahoo, it can use amd chips in large quantities to ensure its lower limit.
Time Games are becoming more and more powerful, and the popularity of League of Legends and the rise of e-sports driven by this has given it enough ability to influence graphics card manufacturers. If the gap between A and N cards is not big, if you insist on negative optimization of Nvidia's chips for a long time, you can imagine the sourness of the results. You should know that the world's most mainstream game engine companies Unit and Epic have been invested by Time and become its major shareholders...
In addition, A-cards specially made for Bitcoin mining can also make a lot of contributions to Amd's business. If necessary, there are also Tesla, Saab New Energy (a time series), mobileye (a subsidiary of Guokel), and Yahoo's cooperation on driverless cars and AI chips, which are enough to drive the development of Amd.
Whether technology is leading is often not based on the judgment of experts, but on the back-the-scenes promotion of capital. As for doing so, it is fair to Nvidia, and those who can ask this should be very, very naive!
"Do we control the board of directors of amd?" Zhou Shi
"There are seven seats on the board of directors of amd, including Yahoo, but our shares in amd account for 42.8% in total. Unless the remaining shares are acquired publicly, it is basically impossible to buy them." Wei He
"It's a pity..." Zhou Shi bdshare();
