I'm curious. Why do you think Huawei is interested in your chip open source plan? "
Ren Zhengfei didn't shake his head or nod. Instead, he asked curiously.
Of course, he did come for this.
But other than him, no one in Huawei knew why he came to Huanyu Technologies.
How would Chen Yu know?
"If Boss Ren isn't interested in our chip open source plan, I'm afraid he wouldn't be interested in coming here."
"That's not necessarily true. Your company is doing well in all kinds of business. I've been paying attention to it."
"Our business doesn't overlap with Huawei's business. For the time being, I believe Boss Ren isn't particularly interested."
"Are you sure?"
"Half and half."
Chen Yu smiled. "If Boss Ren didn't come, I wouldn't be so sure. But since Boss Ren is here, my guess should be correct. After all, with Boss Ren's insight, he should be able to see that our chip open source plan isn't just for us. It's also very beneficial for Huawei. "
"That's true."
Ren Zhengfei nodded. "I've seen your chip open source plan. It's not just about mobile phone chips and computer chips. It's about the entire Internet of Things. In other words, it's about integrating all electronic chips. This is very beneficial for Huawei. But … "
"Boss Ren wants to say that you want to see more of our capabilities, right? Or rather, why do you believe me? "
Ren Zhengfei nodded with a smile.
Although he was very interested in Huanyu Technologies' chip open source plan, he was an extremely rational person.
He clearly knew that even if you had a strict plan and sufficient funds, you might not be able to break the European and American chip open source plan.
Although Huanyu Technologies had made a good start.
"I don't know how to put it. But if I had to say it, I would say that Huanyu Technologies has the capability. Of course, Boss Ren and some other company leaders may have a lot of doubts. For example, they suspect that Huanyu Technologies doesn't have any technology at all, but insists on making mobile phones. But in fact, we're very good at making mobile phones. "
There was a hint of self-mockery in his words, but they were filled with incomparable confidence.
This reminded Ren Zhengfei of Huawei.
Huawei was the first company to enter the field of communications technology, but they had not developed very well. Many people doubted Huawei's capabilities.
But many years later, Huawei used its own strength to prove to its competitors that if they could do it, so could they.
However, Ren Zhengfei still said, "Chips can't be compared to mobile phones. Although mobile phone technology is very complicated, it can't be compared to chips. After all, the A.I. Chip involves too many things … "
"Everything has to be done step by step. It's impossible to perfect it all at once. It's the same for mobile phones and chips. "
"May I ask, how long will your chip project take?"
"I don't know. There's no timetable for now."
"How much will it cost?"
"For the time being, I can't do any specific statistics."
"Hehe, Boss Chen, your reason won't convince me to join."
"The chip project can't be convinced. No matter how eloquent I am, those who don't agree won't agree. Our chip project needs people who share our dreams."
"Dreams."
Ren Zhengfei said these two words, "Isn't it too ideal to talk about dreams in the capital market?"
"I don't think so. On the contrary, a lot of capital has achieved the dreams of countless people."
"This is a very new way of saying it."
After that.
Ren Zhengfei looked at Chen Yu, "Is the agreement ready?"
"It's ready."
Chen Yu took out the agreement that had already been prepared.
Both of them were smart people.
In fact, what was said above was not a reason.
The reasons were that Chen Yu wanted to do it, and Ren Zhengfei also wanted to do it.
If there was no Chen Yu, Ren Zhengfei might do it himself.
But since Chen Yu did it, it didn't matter whether Ren Zhengfei did it or not.
After all, this chip project was an open source plan. At the same time, the members of the founding group could use it without restrictions.
At the same time, according to the agreement, the members of the founding group could also name the chip.
In other words.
In the future, if the chip was successfully built, Huanyu Technologies could call it Huanyu Chip.
Huawei could also call it Huawei Chip.
The chip was the same chip, but the name could be decided by you.
In this way, the members of the founding group would be fair, and there would be no disputes because of the chip brand.
Of course, the premise was that a sum of money must be provided.
Or not just a sum of money, but more.
The specific amount of money to be provided depended on the future situation.
"The first batch of funds will be transferred to the Foundation's account in three days."
"Thank you, Boss Ren."
"Don't thank me. As you said, for the dream."
Everything about the chip open source plan was public.
Not only the chip architecture, but also the agreement.
Ren Zhengfei had already studied the agreement before. He approved of the agreement drafted by Chen Yu, so this time, he just looked at it for a while and signed his name.
"Boss Ren just said that I was wrong. I didn't expect Boss Ren to have a dream."
"People always have dreams. Although it seems ridiculous in the capital market, you are right. But what you said just now is right. Sometimes, capital can achieve the dreams of countless people. By the way, when will you be free to come to China? "
"Don't worry, I will definitely come."
"Then it's settled. I will wait for you at Huawei."
"Okay."
After signing the agreement, Ren Zhengfei said goodbye. Chen Yu sent Ren Zhengfei to the door.
Looking at Ren Zhengfei leaving, Chen Yu clenched his fist.
Finally, there was a company involved in the chip open source plan.
Moreover, it was an important giant in the future.
With Huawei's participation, his chip open source plan had a higher probability of success.
…
"I didn't expect a company to join our chip open source plan so soon."
With the agreement, Chen Yu told Li Biqing about Huawei's participation.
"Director, didn't you say that no company wanted to work with us?"
"I was just complaining at that time."
Li Biqing sighed and said, "With our technology and strength, I thought it would be a year later."
"Director, you see, outsiders have better foresight than you do."
"You little brat, do you think I would come here if I didn't have foresight?"
"Don't say that, I'm just kidding. You have great foresight. When I was still in high school, you tricked me into coming to Shencheng. You're amazing."
"Come on."
"However, to be honest, I didn't expect Huawei to join us. At that time, I thought they wanted to do it themselves."
This was not impossible.
In his previous life, Huawei was secretly doing their own chip business.
And they did it for more than ten years.
Until the United States banned Huawei and did not allow them to use ARM chips, the backup plan of more than ten years became official overnight.
Speaking of which, according to the history of his previous life, Huawei started to do chips around this time.
But now, he was one step ahead of them.
"They might do it themselves, but our chip open source plan is more advantageous."
Li Biqing analyzed and said, "It's not only because of our open source plan, but also because of our cooperation plan with the founding group. It can balance everyone's interests and will not be controlled by any one company. This is also why Ren Zhengfei was willing to join. "
"That's true."
Chen Yu nodded.
When he started the chip project, he had considered this point.
In order to break out of this situation, he could only join forces with everyone he could.
And how to join forces was to balance the interests of everyone as much as possible.
Otherwise, if you started a chip project that was controlled by yourself, who would want to join?
Unless you were now Microsoft or a giant like Intel.
"From the looks of it, Chen Yu, you have to recruit more talents."
"Recruit more talents, Dean. Don't we have you?"
"My hair is already white. How many more years can I work? At most, I can help you set up this business. In the future, the real chip project will have to depend on the young people. "
"This …"
Looking at Li Biqing, Chen Yu nodded.
Li Biqing was about to retire. At most, he could help him manage the project for a few more years.
But the chip project was not one or two years, nor was it three or four years. It could take five or even ten years.
"Dean, do you have a suitable candidate to take over your position?"
"I haven't found one yet, but you can go to Huawei."
"Huawei?"
"Hehe, you might not know, but Huawei has a lot of super experts in it."
"This …"
Chen Yu was a little embarrassed. "Dean, are you asking me to poach people?"
"Talents can't grow on their own. Huanyu Technologies' foundation is too weak. It can't cultivate too many talents. If you don't poach people, you'll have nothing to eat. Besides, didn't you poach me? "
"But you just signed an agreement with Huawei. Isn't it too shameless to poach people from them?"
"Dean, why are you looking at me?"
"Okay, okay, I admit, I've done a lot of shameless things."
Chen Yu quickly surrendered.
He knew his own business.
More than half of Huanyu Technologies' talents were poached.
Zou Tao, who was involved in online games, was poached from Jinshan.
Xu Bo, who was involved in fantasy, was poached from NetEase.
Li Xuelin, who was involved in portal management, was not a talent cultivated by Huanyu Technologies.
Looking at it this way, he had to use the opportunity of his visit to Huawei to poach some talents.
Who should he poach?
He had to think about it carefully.
