Technology derived

Chapter 390 Intel on the Road
GlobalFoundries is now in the same situation as HTC, but it used to be brilliant, but now it is overwhelmed by Taiwanese companies such as TSMC and UMC.

Coupled with the upgrading of fab equipment and technology research and development, it is very expensive.

Even an existence like GlobalFoundries can hardly support this endless technical battle!
Therefore, facing Mortal Technology's acquisition offer and its undeniable sincerity, GlobalFoundries agreed without hesitation, and directly sold all three good overseas fabs to Mortal Technology.

As for Intel, its purpose is a bit more complicated.

On the one hand, Intel's embarrassing situation in the field of mobile chips makes the production capacity of their fabs somewhat elusive.

Nowadays, Intel's mobile chips are very good and sales are booming, so Intel's existing fabs will not only not be redundant, but even slightly insufficient.

But if Intel's mobile chips are mediocre and the market response is mediocre, then Intel's existing fabs will inevitably have overcapacity.

Therefore, Intel must be cautious about the acquisition of Mortal Technology, and must fully analyze and evaluate the market and future sales.

In addition, what makes Intel even more helpless is that the sales of Intel's mobile chips are not entirely determined by Intel, but by the market.

On the contrary, it is largely determined by mortal technology!
Because Intel's actions in mobile chips are really not worth mentioning.

Even this perfect counterattack, the well-received AtomS1 chip was jointly developed with Mortal Technology.

Moreover, the most critical integration service is provided by Mortal Technology, and the most outstanding advanced baseband is also provided by Mortal Technology.

Therefore, at this level, Intel owes Wang Fan a favor.

Or to be more realistic, it was Wang Fan who held Intel's lifeblood.

You have to be aware of Intel, and Wang Fan may continue to support it vigorously.

If you have no idea about Intel, Wang Fan may control it, and even take a weaning action directly!

The simplest, as long as Mortal Technology finds an excuse, saying that the baseband production capacity is limited and cannot continue to provide.

This cut off Intel's baseband supply, so Intel's hot-selling AtomS1 chip can only be blinded.

In addition, what worries Intel the most is that Mortal Technology can do so well in the field of baseband, and now that it has acquired such a fab, it has a great attitude to do a lot.

Therefore, once Mortal Technology enters the field of mobile chips, Intel can only eat ashes.

Although such a phenomenon may come sooner or later, there is no doubt that the later the better.

As a result, Intel had a roughly unanimous opinion, and sold the two fabs to Mortal, and let Mortal Technology record this favor.

In this way, even if mortal technology makes another move in the future, there may be some room for it.

In addition, selling the fab to Mortal Technology is undoubtedly the best blow to competitors TSMC and UMC!
Not only now, the provincial government of Taiwan Island has provoked Mortal Technology, and Mortal Technology wants to block all Taiwanese companies.

It is because Samsung and Intel's fabs, in addition to large third-party customers, also have their own chips that can be mass-produced, so there is more room for maneuver.

But TSMC is different!
TSMC, like Foxconn, does not have its own brand or products, and only manufactures and produces for other companies!
In this way, as long as Mortal Technology expands in the field of chip foundry, TSMC must be the hardest hit, while Samsung and Intel may be able to support it with their own large chip orders.

Therefore, after careful consideration and meticulous analysis, all Intel executives finally reached a consensus to sell 2 overseas fabs to Mortal Technology!

…………

At this moment, Mortal Technology's actions in the field of semiconductors and chips have completely expanded the pace.

Even the branch factories of GlobalFoundries and Intel have been acquired. This kind of handwriting is definitely not ordinary.

If we say that before, the smaller fabs purchased by Mortal Technology were nothing more than low-end goods and could not become big.

Then the GlobalFoundries and Intel branches acquired this time are actually large fabs!

Undoubtedly, if this continues, as long as the large and small fabs in the hands of Mortal Technology are all mature and become a climate, then the great achievements of Mortal Technology's fabs are set.

Even if the comprehensive production capacity is not comparable to TSMC, it is still possible to compare with UMC.

The impact on TSMC and UMC is not so powerful.

Therefore, in the face of such a reality, facing Wang Fan's crazy actions, the Taiwan Island Provincial Government really felt a little chilled, and even began to regret, did they really do something wrong?

As for TSMC, it couldn't help but start to panic.

You know, the current posture of Mortal Technology is completely a posture of sharpening a knife and rushing towards pigs and sheep.

If Intel is like this, maybe TSMC doesn't care.

After all, no matter how powerful Intel is, it is not necessarily much better than TSMC in terms of chip foundry, especially in the mobile field, which is even more incomparable.

But mortal technology is different, this is a company that always loves to create miracles.

Sure enough, misfortunes never come singly, mortal technology has amplified its tricks again!
Six days later, in the morning, TSMC's 6 senior executives, 10 middle managers, and 30 other employees all quit and joined Mortal Technology.

6 days later, in the afternoon, 15 senior executives, 40 middle managers, and 300 other employees from UMC all quit and joined Mortal Technology.

6 days later, at night, the Intel fab announced the layoff of 800 people!
All these backbone technical staff were immediately recruited by Mortal Technology!

Some people even speculate that this is Intel's second big gift for Mortal Technology, or in other words, another compromise Intel has made to Mortal Technology!
On a deeper level of analysis, Intel has almost completely abandoned the field of mobile chips, and instead concentrates its efforts on developing the field of PC chips.

This change is not due to the strength of Qualcomm and Samsung in the field of mobile chips, forcing them to do so.

It's the powerful addition of mortal technology!
Through this cooperation with Mortal Technology to develop the AtomS1 chip, Intel has become more aware that the technology of Mortal Technology is really not ordinary.

Therefore, once Mortal Technology enters the field of mobile chips, others, whether it is Samsung or Qualcomm, are likely to be powerless to fight back.

Therefore, instead of being forced to have nowhere to go in the end, it is better to quit freely and freely, and sell the mortal technology as a favor by the way!
Of course, Wang Fan is also very pleased that Intel is so good.
