Chapter 151 Daxia's Strong Support
Hearing Colonel Hao Yang's earnest words, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility on his shoulders.
In some ways, he has become the epicenter of the times.
Whether he can promote the birth of domestic high-end graphics cards has become the key to influencing the century-long development plan of a country or even an organization.
"Colonel Hao, don't worry, I'll take over this matter.
I will definitely make domestic high-end graphics cards available quickly to solve the problem that the "anti-spyware and hidden danger elimination system" cannot be expanded nationwide due to the high price of graphics cards. "
Lin Feng made a promise. This was his original plan, and now he was just making his plan public.
"Thank you so much."
Colonel Hao Yang was also very happy when he heard this, and the uneasiness in his heart was finally put to rest.
Colonel Hao Yang couldn't help but feel uneasy. After all, this matter was not a good thing for Xingtu Technology. It was something that required Xingtu Technology to spend real money on research and development to solve.
Given the current highly monopolized situation in the global graphics card market, Xingtu Technology wants to break the monopoly of NVIDIA and AMD in the graphics card field.
To develop a domestic high-end graphics card that can rival the Asus GTX 980Ti graphics card, it would cost at least tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of Xia yuan to have any hope.
Otherwise, it is simply a fantasy to want to spend hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars to develop a domestic high-end graphics card that can rival the ASUS GTX 980Ti graphics card.
After all, there is such a thing as technology patents in this world, and those companies often register thick technology patent barriers.
If you don't want to be sued for patent infringement, you must find a way to bypass their technology patents, which requires spending real money on research and development.
Under such circumstances, it is not an exaggeration to say that if you want to produce a domestic high-end graphics card with performance comparable to that of the ASUS GTX 980Ti graphics card, you will need to spend tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.
Burning tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars is naturally unacceptable to Daxia, so after Daxia could no longer afford it, it could only place its hopes on the people.
So they looked around and found that only Xingtu Technology could afford it and had the motivation to do so, so they finally sent Colonel Hao Yang to complain and plead.
And now it’s great that Lin Feng is willing to take on the task of developing domestic high-end graphics cards.
This also means that Daxia can save tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of Xia yuan for other purposes, which naturally makes Colonel Hao Yang feel relieved.
"Mr. Lin, we are very grateful to Xingtu Technology for taking on this important task.
In order to thank you for your contribution to the country, after the above discussion, we decided to give you two major supports.
The first support is policy support. Next, we will formulate corresponding support policies and tax incentives to reduce your burden.
The second support is that we have decided to support a group of your scientific research and development talents, let them join Xingtu Technology Company, and speed up the development of graphics cards. "
"Oh?"
Hearing Colonel Hao Yang's words, Lin Feng's face flashed with joy.
Policy support is easy to say, the more the better, and Lin Feng will naturally not refuse it. The second support is to allow relevant scientific research talents to join Xingtu Technology, which represents a different meaning.
Because this means that after those R&D talents join Xingtu Technology, the scientific research results will be exclusive to Xingtu Technology and have nothing to do with Daxia.
This is equivalent to giving away talents for free without any scientific research results of its own.
I can only say that Da Xia is worthy of being Da Xia. In response to Lin Feng's courageous behavior, the government also gave Lin Feng a reward that satisfied him.
I just don't know what the level of R&D talents provided by Daxia is. If they are counterfeit, it would be better to recruit them ourselves.
Colonel Hao Yang was obviously well prepared for this, and he took out a list of 68 people from his bag. The list included their names, education, work experience, scientific research results, and when they participated in what projects.
Through this list, Lin Feng can understand their general situation.
In general, Daxia’s top scientific research talents, namely, Daxia academicians, are not included in this list.
But everyone on the list has a master's degree and relevant graphics card or computer hardware research and development experience, which is a small sweet spot.
In general, it is impossible to ask them to develop mainstream high-end graphics cards that are comparable to AMD and NVIDIA. They do not have the experience or the strength to do so.
But because they all have experience in graphics card development or other computer hardware development, and their academic qualifications and knowledge are very good, they are qualified R&D backbones.
In this case, if a strong R&D expert appears as the head of the graphics card R&D project team.
With the cooperation of these 68 key R&D personnel, it may be possible to develop a domestically produced high-end graphics card with performance comparable to the ASUS GTX 980Ti graphics card.
"I am very satisfied with this group of scientific research talents and I am very grateful for the country's support."
Closing the list in his hand, Lin Feng expressed his thanks as usual.
"fine."
Colonel Hao Yang smiled and then asked:
"I don't know much about research, but I wonder when a domestically produced high-end graphics card can be launched?"
After hearing Colonel Hao Yang's words, Lin Feng hesitated for a moment, then slowly explained:
“It is hard to say when the product will be launched, as it takes time to initiate R&D, time to tape out the product after R&D is completed, and time to mass-produce it.
But I can guarantee that the graphics card R&D department will be officially established in the next two days, and we will also find ways to purchase a large number of technical patents to speed up the launch of graphics cards."
"Is that so? I see."
Colonel Hao Yang was a little disappointed as he had no way of knowing the exact time, but since Lin Feng had already promised to speed up, there was nothing he could do no matter how anxious he was.
At present, the "Anti-spying and Pre-elimination of Hidden Dangers System" can only be applied in more critical places. If it cannot be rolled out nationwide, there is no way to roll it out nationwide.
Having and not having are two concepts. If applied in critical areas, they can produce good results.
So Lin Feng and Colonel Hao Yang went out to have a meal, and then they parted ways.
After receiving the transfer notice from above, the R&D talents on the list also set off for the Xingtu Technology headquarters.
Before this, they had actually been interviewed, and because they had no objection to being transferred to Xingtu Technology Company, their names appeared on the list.
……
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye a week has passed.
During this week, Xingtu Technology spent 30 billion yuan to buy the graphics card department of VIA in Taiwan.
The VIA graphics card department on the Bay Island includes a series of technical patents and technical patent licenses held by VIA regarding graphics cards.
In other words, from now on, Xingtu Technology officially had the qualifications to officially get involved in the graphics card industry, and this naturally caused a stir among the two major graphics card companies, AMD and NVIDIA.
