Vol 2 Chapter 1153: Intel with a headache

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Three

Intel with a headache

At the headquarters of the "ibm" company, many directors frowned and looked contemplative. This kind of situation is extremely rare. We must know that since "ibm" became the world's largest business giant, this phenomenon has rarely appeared in the faces of many directors. Whether it is a world war or an economic crisis, "ibm" will always stand firm and absolutely powerful. Therefore, in the face of any situation, "ibm" can be calm, and it is no exaggeration to say that "ibm" people are born with a sense of watching all beings.

This is a sense of superiority that "ibm" has been at the forefront of contemporary science and technology for decades, leading the development of computers, and it is also a cultural precipitation and historical vicissitudes. This is not a mentality that can be achieved in a short time. Therefore, "ibm" people have always been able to calmly deal with any changes. But this time, after Oracle acquired the companies "sun" and "NVIDIA" in a short time, it finally moved "ibm".

Although "Oracle" acquired "sun" and "Nvidia", it still cannot be compared with "ibm". Although the gap between the two is still huge, it is definitely not the same as before. With Ellison's personality, Palmisano knows that in the future, Ellison will definitely challenge "ibm".

Although Ellison often rants on various occasions, looking at the first goal in life is to surpass "Microsoft", but those who really know Ellison know that "Microsoft" is only Ellison's first goal. There is actually another goal in Sen's heart, which is ibm.

For a long time, although the industry has been amazed by the magic of "Oracle", it can become the No.1 in the database commercial field in a short time, but many people think that this is because Ellison is lucky and saw the "ibm" researcher Ed Ga-Coutt’s thesis has the "Oracle" as it is today. Within "ibm", this view is also quite common. Many "ibm" people even believe that this is because "ibm" did not want to develop in the commercial field, so they turned to specialize in the professional field and left the commercial field to others, denying that there would never be "Oracle".

For Ellison, who has always been arrogant, this view is undoubtedly very angry. However, although Ellison was crazy, he still remained sane and calm. "Microsoft" he can still provoke a bit, but in the face of "ibm" he is almost weak and unable to fight back. Therefore, although Ellison desperately wanted to defeat "ibm", he proved that although he relied on "ibm"'s thesis hairpin at the beginning, he could have the strength to defeat "ibm" through hard work, but "ibm" was too strong. It was so powerful that Ellison, a lunatic, did not dare to go mad.

However, after acquiring "sun" and "Nvidia" this time, "Oracle" finally made itself one of the super giants in the industry. It can be regarded as having the strength to challenge "ibm", and it is no longer just a mouthful as before. He was poor and happy, but they didn't take him seriously.

It is precisely because of the realization that Ellison has the qualifications to attack "ibm", so many directors of "ibm" have such serious faces. Although, at present, they are not afraid of Ellison, after all, the strength and background of the two sides are too far apart, which can not be settled in the short term. But in the future, what will this lunatic do after the integration of "Oracle"?

When everyone thinks about it, they feel a headache. This Ellison's personality is really a bit unreasonable, but his company got into this kind of person. They all say that the King of Yama is very annoying, and the little devil is hard to deal with. This Ellison is probably one of the most difficult people in the world.

Seeing everyone discussed and discussed, there was no conclusion. On the contrary, the topic got farther and farther, even a bit like a trend of shrews cursing the street. He shook his head and coughed to stop everyone's cursing behavior. At this moment, Watson III on the side shook his head even more, with a disgusted expression on his face. Obviously, Watson III was even more disdainful of the ugly faces of people in the business world.

When Peng Mingsheng saw Watson III's expression, he sighed in his heart. I'm afraid that in the next ten years, "ibm" may no longer be named Watson. If this is the case, it is really a embarrassing thing. I am afraid that this will also become a special case where a family business, which is rare in American family history, is controlled by others.

auzw.com"Okay, everyone. In fact, we don’t have to worry too much about'Oracle'. On the bottom line,'ibm' is in the computer industry. The cutting-edge technology mastered in the field is far from what Oracle can compare by acquiring Sun and Nvidia. What's more, it is only commercial technology, and ours is absolutely cutting-edge technology, military technology!" Peng Mingsheng Between the eyebrow color is proud.

Indeed, no matter how arrogant "Oracle" is, its technology is only limited to commercial use. As we all know, commercial technology is second-rate, and the real first-class technology lies in the military. And "ibm" is to serve the military. Of course, at the same time making some money in the business world. Therefore, regardless of the current stock market value of "ibm" is only more than 170 billion U.S. dollars, which is far lower than "Microsoft"'s more than 220 billion U.S. dollars, but in fact it is because many of the strengths of "ibm" are hidden, and its financial statements are often They only declared the profits of the business community, and the military never declared them. Of course, there is no need to declare.

This time, Palmison’s board of directors was held with great fanfare to let everyone discuss Ellison’s affairs. It was not that he was worried about Ellison’s future provocation of "ibm", but that he wanted to give this "blue giant" whose thinking has become a bit rigid due to monopoly "Sprinkle a little energizer, hoping that they won't make mistakes again, and be as stupid as before.

Ellison's "Oracle" may be able to spur everyone, so that everyone can be more sober and more vigilant. The world is changing with each passing day. Although "ibm" is now dominating one side, if it continues to be as turbulent as before, it will definitely make an unforgivable mistake. For example, the previous "ibm" incorrectly estimated the use of computers in the business field, and categorically abandoned this market, and its loss of money was in the hundreds of billions of dollars. "Ibm" can no longer make this kind of mistake.

It is a pity that at present, in the view of Peng Mingsheng, everyone is not alert at all. With this in mind, Palmisano can only sigh. An overly stable life may have made "ibm" people rigid and overly optimistic. Believe that the world will always be its own world.

When the directors of "ibm" Palms are too rigid, there are even more headaches.

Originally, in this acquisition, the protagonist was "Oracle", and although Ellison was crazy, he was not going to shoot randomly and make enemies everywhere. But now for a certain company, it is by no means good news. This company is not another company, but - Intel.

For Intel, when it heard that "Oracle" acquired "sun", it was indifferent. For "Intel", it has nothing to do with it. But then, when "Oracle" acquired "Nvidia", the entire "Intel" was shaken across the board. For "Intel", this news is too shocking. Of course, what makes "Intel" so shocking is not that "Oracle" acquired "Nvidia", but because "Oracle" and "Phantom Technology" acquired "Nvidia", and both parties hold 50% of the shares.

"Phantom Technology", a company that is mainly engaged in electronic products, has only been established for three years, is it worthy of such attention from "Intel"? ——The answer is naturally worth it! Because the boss of this company is not someone else, but the richest man in the world today-Lin Feng.

Of course, if this is the case, "Intel" is not afraid. You must know that a super company like Intel, an absolute oligarch in the commercial chip industry, would not care too much about Lin Feng, the world's richest man. After all, the market value of "Intel" is as high as US$192 billion, and its cash reserves are as high as US$20 billion. For such a company, it can be said that for Lin Feng, the richest man, it is only respect, but not afraid.

But Lin Feng is not an ordinary richest man after all. Lin Feng himself owns the "Second World", and the "amd" hardware development department under the "Second World" is the enemy of "Intel". Of course, for "amd", "Intel" has not been taken seriously. After all, no matter whether it is technology or financial resources, "amd" and "Intel" can not be compared, even if you add a "second world" and "ati". , Can't be compared with "Intel".

But when Linfeng’s "Phantom Technology" acquired 50% of "Nvidia", everything was different, it was really different. Although the strength of "Nvidia" is not worth mentioning in the eyes of "Intel", the influence it brings is enough to shock, alert, and even worry about "Intel".

Because, in the personal computer industry today, there are only two manufacturers of graphics cards, one is the "ati" of the "Second World", and the other is the "Nvidia". Today, "ati" is in the hands of "Second World", and half of "Nvidia" is in the hands of "Phantom Technology". These two companies are owned by Lin Feng, which means that Lin Feng now controls the graphics card market alone. Although the other half of "Nvidia" is in the hands of "Oracle", because of the relationship between Ellison and Lin Feng, I am afraid that "Nvidia" can say that Lin Feng is the master.

headache! "Intel" really feels a headache!
