404 The Secret That Can't Be Told

Huaxia, Shenzhen City, Huawei headquarters park.

The Huawei headquarters park has been very lively in the past two days. The welcome banners at the entrance of the park, the luxury vehicles that often enter and exit, and the legal officials who have been working overtime can probably prove that some very important negotiations are underway in the park, and the actual situation is exactly the case.

When Ning Wei set out for the future city to relax, the bosses of foreign high-tech companies had already arrived in Shenzhen City and discussed the future development trends of semiconductors with the Huaxin Precision boss who had also arrived in Shenzhen City early on.

The relevant discussion has been going on for two days, and the discussion on related issues is almost over. The meeting being discussed today is more serious. Everyone is discussing the establishment of the world's first three-dimensional display and metacosmic technology alliance, referred to as the T3DM alliance.

In the words of many big shots, this is an epoch-making thing. The real three-dimensional display produced by Zhang Dingxi's laboratory will bring the world's Internet into a new era. Therefore, it is very important and very necessary to establish such a technology alliance that closely connects all parties in the world...

The original intention of this technology alliance was also extremely high-level, aiming to better serve developers around the world, so that these developers can develop more and better real three-dimensional products through the various interfaces reviewed and released by the alliance, and at the same time constrain major hardware providers around the world to provide various adaptive hardware that meets alliance standards for real three-dimensional displays, and design and develop drivers that can better support three-dimensional displays.

The first batch of alliance initiators include Apple, Google, IBM, Intel, Facebook, Nvidia, AMD-ati and other companies, and of course, they also include Huawei Group, Ningsi Laboratory and Ningxin, Ningsi Laboratory, Huaxin International and its subsidiaries Huaxin Precision, Huaxia Artificial Intelligence Frontier R&D Center, Jitu Group, Minimalist EDA Experiment and March Intelligence Center...

Originally, Huawei also invited representatives of Ningfeng Software, but after Ningfeng Software had agreed to sell its shares, it declined to attend the alliance. In the words of General Manager Lan Jie, if the money has been made, it will not be annoying to come here.

This is actually quite smart.

After all, it is indeed quite hateful to increase the capital of 100 million in three months. Especially the old fox who has been in the mall for a long time is very clear in his heart that those suckers who pay money may not dare to say anything to Ning Wei, and it is even more difficult to argue with Ning She. But if he doesn't have the ability to join in this kind of fun, he will definitely be regarded as the key exporter, and he will not be sure to listen to many ugly words...

So it is natural that things like taking the blame can be pushed if you can push it, and that's great.

Of course, there are still losses. After all, a group of foreign bigwigs are discussing the establishment of a technology industry alliance in the Chinese world.

...

"Okay, everyone, during the separate talks two days ago, we have roughly understood your basic opinions. Today, the meeting will be first commissioned by me on behalf of Huawei and the main investor laboratory of True 3D Display Laboratory to talk about some of our ideas."

After a simple greeting, in a relatively simple conference room, Yan Ming sat in the main seat, which means that the company in China began to make a speech first.

In fact, Yan Ming really didn't want to speak first on this occasion. He wanted to hand over this issue to the president of Ningsi Laboratory, but Ning Wei thought it was more appropriate for him to discuss this issue, so the burden fell on him in the end.

"First of all, I want to say that it is very necessary to establish the T3DM Technology Alliance. Only after unifying various technical standards can we better pave the way for the industrialization of this technology around the world, so that consumers around the world can enjoy the various benefits brought by the upgrading of the Internet industry, and promote the rapid and healthy development of this technology and eliminate vicious competition. Therefore, we are very supportive of the establishment of this alliance."

"However, in the meeting in the past two days, we also realized that many of our opinions are not consistent. It can be said that each company has many ideas. For example, when I talked with Mr. Kirsinger yesterday, he expressed his hope that the goal of expanding the industrial chain can be achieved faster through the method of fully open source and sharing technology within the alliance and mass production as soon as possible. How to say, the original intention is indeed good. Only when the product is mass-produced can the various problems that arise in this process and promote the healthy development of the industrial chain."

"Of course it's not just Mr. Kirsinger. In fact, everyone has their own demands. If our alliance wants to be established, I believe everyone is also thinking of seeking common ground while reserving differences, so we can sit together today and talk about this matter. We have done a comprehensive view of our opinions in the past two days. How to say it, they are all very constructive opinions. After all, everyone has rich experience. So we won't talk nonsense today, let's talk about Huawei's opinions first."

"First of all, everyone knows that we have invested a lot in the CNMD structure. I won't disclose the specific numbers. Ningsi Laboratory has raised 120,000 engineers, which is enough to explain everything. As the main investor of Ningsi Laboratory, and after several discussions with Ningxin No. 1, Academician Ning Wei, after several discussions, we are willing to share the CNMD chip structure with the world, and also include the instruction set."

"We welcome everyone to join the CNMD family, so we will choose a limited open source of CNMD architecture. That is, the entire architecture will be open source for our members in the T3DM alliance, and members in the alliance will be automatically authorized for free to develop their own CPU products through the CNMD architecture. Of course, this involves the only design software that can support CNMD architecture CPUs at present."

"Everyone knows that Minimalist EDA was originally bound to our turbulent algorithm chip products, and the two have always been interdependent. Therefore, for the healthy development of software, Minimalist EDA cannot be used for free for members of the alliance. We must explain this to you first, because in the later stage, we plan to independently carry out the department responsible for Minimalist EDA and jointly invest with the Jiangda Software Laboratory to establish a special EDA software company, and then package the Minimalist EDA products and start a comprehensive commercial operation model."

Yan Ming talked about this, the atmosphere in the conference room was still very harmonious.

After all, it is very satisfying to be willing to open source the CNMD structure within the alliance.

Of course, there are also concerns. After all, this sharing method is actually different from what Intel considered before. But generally speaking, a strict attitude is acceptable.

"The second is the three-dimensional display technology that everyone has more relevant. We have also conducted a series of consultations with the laboratory in this regard. In order to ensure that more hardware can support this product, the laboratory also hopes to promote this technology alliance. Let's study together to solve many technical problems faster. However, we also have some specific small requirements."

"First of all, the old saying is that we support the establishment of the T3DM technology alliance, but one thing is that after the alliance is established, we have a veto on the specific technical standards, and our test-free voting right to implement the technical standards. Everyone should understand this meaning?"

Gu Du/span> Probably knew that once this condition was raised, there would definitely be controversy. Yan Ming stopped speaking after giving a rhetorical question.

...

The atmosphere in the conference room began to become less harmonious with the words Yan Ming, or for those foreign VIPs. The big guys looked surprised, of course, this also means that everyone really understood Yan Ming's meaning.

In fact, to put it simply, they can't get enough of the specific technical standards of this industry in the future. Oh, no, it's not that they can't get enough of it. It should be said that the technical standards they submitted can be passed if most of the entities in the alliance agree and the Chinese side is satisfied.

However, they have no qualifications to say that the standards given by the Chinese side are not satisfied with, but if the standards they propose, if the Chinese side is not satisfied, there is no need to hold a meeting to discuss them. The veto power can directly sentence these standards to death.

How to say, this kind of rule sounds very rogue, there are indeed some rules in reality, and everyone is very good at vetoing the right to vote and is very good at it. The various jokes derived from this power can be heard for a day and a night.

Compared with the veto power that is already enough, what is even more rogue is that all the standards I put forward can be implemented without discussion.

After pondering for a long time, someone spoke: "Yan, you have always been a person I respect very much. We are also good friends in private, but are you sure you have carefully considered this when you say this? Really, this is not the attitude you should have in establishing an alliance. It gives me the feeling that you want to expand and acquire us all, and then issue orders. So... you must be joking, right? Yan."

Yan Ming shrugged and looked at the president of Google Greater China and the current Google President Sandal Pichai who was speaking next to him, smiling slightly, and then explained in a gentle tone: "No, no, no, I am very serious. This is the basic requirement for the establishment of the alliance. In fact, so many years have passed, everyone should have understood it, such as Mr. Cook can testify, how reliable the suggestions and standards we put forward through the March big data system will be."

"Let me put it this way, the rigorous and creative mathematical model has promoted the success of Ningxin 1 and 3D display technology. We are the first to embark on this path, and we are also confident that through the rigorous digital simulation industrial development process, the standardized suggestions given are in line with the interests of most members in the alliance. We have always advocated win-win cooperation. I believe that everyone can still trust us in this regard."

This is what I say...

If trust is so easy to establish, it seems that there is no need for various legal constraints...

"If you are serious, maybe it's hard to continue talking about it. For a technical alliance, the fair voice of internal members is the most basic. Even if you can have some privileges as the rotating chairman of the alliance, these privileges should be limited to a certain range. If there is only a powerful voice in a alliance to control everything, this is a powerful power..." IBM president said slowly.

The tone is not necessarily very tough, but the attitude expressed is still very obvious.

Yan Ming spread his hands, his face smiled, and he said gently and even shyly: "Mr. Crysia, as you said just now, the right to speak fairly is the most basic. But the question is what kind of judgment standard should this fairness be based on, right? For example, should we have a distinction between contribution? For example, we really took out real money to establish this alliance, but we cannot use special right to speak. If I agree with this kind of thing, it will be difficult to explain."

"Oh, by the way, regarding the rotating chairman, in fact, this is exactly what I will mention next. After the establishment of the alliance, we believe that in order to ensure the unity of the ideas within the alliance, there is no need to do the rotating chairman, nor do we have any rotating chairman. We will set up a technical standards committee. Given that we control a relatively advanced digital verification system, we will submit any technical standards that are conducive to the development of the alliance in the future to directly submit them to the technical standards committee and we will verify it. Our ability to integrate resources is also extremely powerful."

This attitude...

"Yan, maybe you don't know that before coming to Shenzhen City, we had a meal with Ning. You don't seem to have the same idea, or you haven't discussed this issue well."

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. In fact, Academician Ning also attaches great importance to the establishment of the T3DM technology alliance. In the past two days, we have been calling for a long time to discuss how this alliance should be managed and developed to avoid detours once it is established. So many of the suggestions I put forward today are actually some of Academician Ning's ideas. I have summarized them. In fact, if you really need to follow the words on Academician Ning's phone, I am afraid that everyone will be even more unacceptable to it..."

Yan Ming explained sincerely.

I subconsciously recalled Ning Wei's words in my mind...

"They have opinions? Why do they have opinions? Are they all the rules invented by them? Isn't they the modern comprehensive and three-dimensional intellectual property protection system proposed? Are they only allowed to chase others and feed them? They are not allowed to urinate on them? There has never been such an explanation. We must decide the rules. If you are unhappy, don't play..."

"Oh? Actually, I really want to hear how Ning evaluates this alliance." Tim Cook asked suddenly.

He was a little bit sensible and responded casually: "Oh, Academician Ning means that the most powerful rule in the world is that whoever is stronger is reasonable. If the weak are not adjusting their mentality well, let them think carefully... There is a saying in China that is... Oh, no, well, that's probably what it means..."
