#22 - Section: Kunpeng Chip
Lu Haifeng said, "The Kunpeng A1-4-8 chip is a quad-core chip in the Hongmeng X series of processors, but..."
He said while walking, "Generally speaking, the number of cores in a processor represents the number of threads. However, the Kunpeng A1-4-8 is different."
"On this chip, we used hyper-threading technology, achieving hyper-threading for the first time in the field of mobile phone chips."
"Although it is only a quad-core chip, it has eight threads, which is also the origin of the model number Kunpeng A1-4-8."
"The Kunpeng A1-4-8 is a super powerful chip we prepared for the Hongmeng X1, which we call a performance monster!"
Quad-core and eight threads, this is also a highlight of the chip on the Hongmeng X1. After this highlight was revealed, the knowledgeable people in the audience were a little stunned. This is another huge surprise.
"I'm convinced, I'm really convinced this time! This quad-core chip crushes everything!"
"???"
"What happened? Hyper-threading, eight threads?"
Those who knew a little about technology were surprised by Huaxing's eight threads, but those who were not proficient in this field were a little confused!
Threads, what is hyper-threading?
Fortunately, there were knowledgeable people around, and Lu Haifeng also began to explain, and gradually they understood what this so-called hyper-threading technology was.
This is a term that is often talked about when it comes to processor performance. Everyone generally knows about cores. The more cores, the stronger the processor's performance. But if you ask them what a core is, I'm afraid nine out of ten people won't know.
In fact, the so-called number of cores refers to the number of physical cores inside the CPU. One physical core is a single-core CPU, and two physical cores combined together are a dual-core CPU.
When it comes to hyper-threading, you have to understand the kernel. Generally speaking, a kernel can be understood as a set of repair tools. This set of tools contains screws, wrenches, electrical testers, and multimeters.
When the kernel is working and performing computing tasks, this set of tools comes in handy. Sometimes a wrench, sometimes a screw, sometimes a multimeter, using different tools to complete the computing task.
One kernel, one set of tools, one person is working. For multi-threaded kernels, it can be understood as one more person working in the kernel.
After all, there are many tools in this set of repair tools, and not all of them are used at the same time, so an extra set of threads is equivalent to two people using this set of tools.
One person uses a wrench, and the other person uses a screw.
One person uses a multimeter, and the other person uses an electrical tester.
In this way, resources are shared, there is no idle time, and the efficiency of work is immediately improved. Computing power and efficiency are also enhanced. This is a technology that maximizes the performance of the processor.
The competitors originally thought that four cores were powerful enough, but what they didn't expect was that one four-core was not enough, and they even implemented hyper-threading technology on it. How could they survive?
In this market environment where there are almost only dual cores, quad-core eight threads are simply invincible.
Lu Haifeng didn't know about the collapse of his competitors, but even if he knew, it was too late to give them a thumbs up, because he was about to enter the final stage of this press conference after talking about the CPU, which was to announce the price.
The Hongmeng X1 is worthy of the title of flagship. After the announcement of various configurations, the audience already faintly felt that the price of the Hongmeng X1 might be very high.
"I estimate that the Hongmeng S1 starts at 2999, and this configuration is at least three levels higher than the price of the Hongmeng S1. Starting at 8999, I feel it's the lowest."
"8999, it's terrible. I was thinking about four or five thousand, and I could squeeze some money to buy one. Well, I'd better go buy the Hongmeng S1R."
"I feel that those who say 8999 are very optimistic. You must know that this is currently the most configured mobile phone in the world. The global machine king, it's not worthy of the title if it doesn't sell for 9999."
"Alas, I can't afford the Hongmeng X1. Now I only hope that the Hongmeng S1R doesn't increase in price!"
"No matter how much it costs, just buy it all. It's not even as expensive as one of my car wheels. What are you afraid of?"
"Hiss, the boss is domineering."
Seeing that the link to announce the price was coming, there was a lot more discussion at the scene. Some said 8999, and some said 9999.
But no matter how much they guessed, in short, their price estimate for the Hongmeng X1 would never be low. After all, the configuration is there. Is it possible to be cheap?
"Now I announce that the starting price of the Hongmeng X1 is 4999 RMB!"
Suddenly, Lu Haifeng loudly announced the starting price of the Hongmeng X1, announcing a price that everyone did not expect.
Hearing this number, everyone was stunned at once.
"What?"
"4999, damn!"
"Damn, this price is okay!"
"Love it, love it, Huaxing, you really don't rip off the poor!"
"This configuration actually sells for only 4999. No need to say anything, definitely support it."
The price of 4999 exceeded everyone's expectations, but Lu Haifeng did it, and Huaxing did it.
He could have set a higher price, but he gave up and gave a conscientious price of 4999.
"This pricing is simply not giving us a way to survive!"
Unlike the excitement of other viewers, the faces of the mobile phone tycoons watching the live broadcast were a little ugly after hearing this price.
This configuration, this price, Huaxing is trying to lower the price of mobile phones.
The quad-core eight-thread machine king only gives a pricing of 4999. How can they set a high price in the future? Even if they forcibly set a high price, will anyone buy it?
The tycoons were also silent, and at the same time they didn't understand.
The configuration of Huaxing Hongmeng X1 is here. If the pricing is two or three thousand more expensive, no one can say that Huaxing is black-hearted.
Soon, the detailed prices appeared on the big screen:
Hongmeng X1, 16G: 4999
Hongmeng X1, 32G: 5299
Hongmeng X1, 64G: 5699
Hongmeng X1, 128G: 5999
The complete price announcement pushed the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.
After Lu Haifeng announced the price, he said: "I believe the audience is now very familiar with the configuration of Huaxing's two models."
"The Huaxing Hongmeng X1, we are equipped with the Kunpeng series of chips."
"The Huaxing Hongmeng S1R, we are equipped with the Zhulong series of chips."
"Now I am going to introduce to you the brand-new series of chips that will be equipped in the Huaxing Xingchen series."
"That is the Jinwu series of chips."
The emotions of the audience were once again mobilized, but this time they seemed much calmer. This feeling is that Huaxing is going to release chips? Oh, I see.
