After Wang Xianzong left, Xia Tian pondered about the information he knew about the chip industry and the communication industry, and wrote down these materials one by one.

He regretted not having an in-depth understanding of these two industries at the beginning, so now he thinks about it all in a few words.

For example, he knew that in the future, Finland's Nokia will become the world's number one mobile phone brand, with excellent quality and can be used to smash walnuts. Moreover, Nokia is also very good at cheating money, and if the shell is changed to a new color, it will be said to be a new model. However, this leading giant in the industry fell after Apple launched its iPhone, which only took a few years.

He also knows that in the future, Android will surpass indos to become the most widely used operating system in the world. Not only mobile phones, tablets, robots, VR, and Ar technology, drones, TV boxes, and even servers have Android systems.

He also knows that there is an arm company in the UK that will provide technical licenses to chip manufacturers in the future. Chips can make their own chips based on the designs it provides. For example, Huawei's HiSilicon, Xiaomi's Pinecone, Qualcomm, MediaTek, Apple, etc., companies also make profits of hundreds of billions of dollars a year with this.

He also knew that Qualcomm, which is now an unknown company, will make a big profit in the 3G era with its CDMA patent in the future and become the overlord of global mobile communications. MediaTek (Mtk) will be defeated by Qualcomm in the field of high-end chips, and will not even be able to maintain the mid- and low-end markets.

He also knew that Taiwan's TSMC will be the world's largest wafer processing factory in the future. The chips produced by Qualcomm, Apple, MediaTek, etc. are all handed over to foundry. However, because the mainland is blocked by European and American technology and cannot buy the latest lithography machine, the production process is far inferior to TSMC.

By summing up this information, Xia Tian came to three conclusions.

First, the Android system developed based on Linux must be in your own hands. Moreover, in order to avoid repeating the tragedy of Nokia, the Android system must also learn from Google and provide free authorization. Although this has led to a loss in the early stage, when the Android ecosystem is built, the income from the application store alone will be enough to make a fortune.

Second, the arm company must be in its own hands, and if it can be bought, it will definitely be purchased. In this way, Tianxia Technology can directly adopt the arm design, which saves time and effort.

Third, if you invest in TSMC, it is best if you can buy it. Even if you can't, you have to be the largest shareholder. In this way, if Tianxia Technology produces chips, you don't have to invest in building production lines by yourself.

In addition, Qualcomm, he actually invested in a few years ago. Now he is the largest shareholder, accounting for 30% of Qualcomm's shares.

Although Qualcomm was a popular player in the past, it was not in the first place in the smartphone era. In fact, it is now unable to rank at all. The current giant of mobile communications in the United States is Motorola, which mainly promotes analog signals. Europe has formulated the GSM standard, which mainly promotes digital signals.

As for Qualcomm's CDMA technology, although it is more advanced, because it is weak and without the capital to promote this technology, it naturally cannot compete with these giants.

Therefore, Qualcomm is actually very down and out. When he bought it three years ago, he only took one million US dollars to acquire 30% of his shares. If these 30% of his shares were placed in his previous life, they would be worth at least 30 billion US dollars.

In fact, he wanted to invest more shares, but the two founders were worried about losing control, so they never agreed. After trying a few times in Xia Tian, ​​they had to see that they couldn't speak out.

...

After making the following conclusion, Xia Tian immediately instructed Ye Zhiming to send someone to the UK to investigate if there is a company called Arm engaged in chip design.

In addition, he called Wang Xianzong and asked him about TSMC.

When Wang Xianzong saw Xia Tian inquiring about TSMC, he asked in confusion, "A Tian, ​​how did you know that there is TSMC in Taiwan?"

"Oh, I read a report in the newspaper before, saying that it seems to be doing wafer foundry, right?" Xia Tian explained with a smile.

"Yes, TSMC is the world's first professional wafer foundry." Wang Xianzong nodded, "Mr. Zhang Zhongmou is indeed very courageous."

"I think we can talk to him and see if we can invest in a stock." Xia Tian immediately said, "In the future, we must have a processing plant. It will not only take a long time, but also not necessarily economical. If we can leave it to TSMC for production, I think it is both economical and worry-free. What do you think?"

"However, TSMC has not developed very well in recent years. Apart from helping Intel with some OEM, it has almost no decent business. Since its establishment in 1987, it has been losing money for three years, and even the "Zhenfu" is not willing to take the blame. Now we invest in it, aren't we throwing the money into the water?" Wang Xianzong asked in surprise when he heard this.

"It is normal to lose money in business. In my opinion, wafer foundry is the future trend, and Zhang Zhongmou is very sensible." Xia Tian smiled slightly, "Think about it, the future world is the world of computers and the world of chips. The importance of chips will become higher and higher, and more and more manufacturers will design it. But its production lines are very expensive and cannot be easily built, so wafer foundry will inevitably become the mainstream in the future. Therefore, don't look at its losses now, as this industry has great potential."

"Well, I understand." After hearing him, Wang Xianzong nodded, "Then I'll talk to him immediately."

"Okay." Xia Tian smiled, "In addition, you recruit a group of programmers to start doing the Chineseization of Linux systems. We develop and manufacture chips ourselves. If there is no supporting operating system, wouldn't it be useless to study?"

"What linux?" Wang Xianzong asked strangely when he heard this.

Xia Tian blinked. As far as he knows, there are three most well-known operating systems in the world, one is Microsoft's indos, the other is Apple's macos, and the other is open source Linux.

The Android mobile phone system was developed based on Linux, and in the summer, Wang Xianzong asked someone to find someone to Chinese-made Linux, and he also wanted to use this open source system to build his own computer.

You should know that Microsoft has not yet launched indos95, and there is no world that can unify the operating system. If you launch a computer with Linux system now and seize the mainland market, even if indos enters the mainland in the future, you will have the power to fight with it.

Even if you can compete in the home machine market, indos will not lose to it in the fields of scientific research, education, military, and server markets.
