One EL and one MEU. After they were made public, many partner companies said they would suspend or terminate cooperation due to risk considerations.

It is normal to directly lose hundreds of millions - the loss of 2.1 billion is mainly due to the fact that Frontier Angel Global did not bring back reasonable profits, which totaled more than 1.8 billion yuan.

Indirect losses are also related to the above reasons, but more are due to the liberalization of cooperation led by companies such as AMD and ASML.

Especially with the open licensing of X86, the Desktop Processor Pan-Technology Alliance advocated by Frontier was immediately disbanded.

Some companies that followed Loongson to join this alliance directly ‘rebeled’.

Although CB12 has a good name, the development of the application ecosystem is still unknown, and we dare not bet on the future.

X86 is different, it can be applied from desktop computers to general servers to supercomputers.

The breadth of the market is simply not on the same level.

They simply put their interests before their eyes.

If I were just Fang Nian, I would have thought that as a domestic manufacturer, it would be possible for me to compete with Frontier Baize.

After all, Baize's Shenlong series is also based on the ARM architecture.

As for the White Dragon series based on CB12, the future is not very bright either.

Starting a company is not about drinking tea and chatting, it is not about fighting and killing, it is not about being worldly, it is about putting profits first.

You have to survive first before you have the opportunity to think about how to carry the banner of completely independent and controllable localization.

Not every company is cutting edge.

Have the courage to commit suicide at all costs and invest in research and development.

Anyway, according to rumors, even Godson is a bit shaky.

Licensing the X86 architecture is really tempting.

Secondly, the wafer factory can purchase DUV immersion lithography machines like ArFi directly from ASML, which also has a great impact.

And then there is...

In order to survive, AMD even licensed ATI graphics cards. Jing Jiawei suddenly lost his strong desire to do self-research.

After all, this thing is really bottomless.

In addition, Intel suddenly released its plans, severely impacting Bai Ze's large CPU project that had not yet been exposed.

Coupled with the large-volume purchases from big brother Lenovo and other companies, even Miao Wei is a little less confident.

Fang Nian felt that Miao Wei, a bad old man, would have stopped the project if he didn't think there was no way to get the project funds back from him.

Well... of course I'm joking.

Miao Wei just had some doubts.

All in all, Wen Ye, Gu Yu, Wu Fucheng, Bai Zhi, Guan Qiuhe, and Lu Weiyu all made countless efforts in this process.

Everyone knows that the cooperative relationship will definitely break down, but how it breaks down is also very particular.

If it were hit in one fell swoop, the fragile foundation of the frontier might really be destroyed.

After all, MindOS is the only cutting-edge commercial product that is fully autonomous and controllable.

Others are vulnerable to impact.

but……

Again, although the Xuande Islands were the cause of the incident, Frontier was not qualified to intervene at all and had been trying its best to maintain business stability.

Try to reduce the damage on the front line.

Therefore, even though there was obviously a solid plan submitted by Fang Nian, and at least Fang Nian knew the result, Wen Ye, Gu Yu and others were still asked to work in two shifts to guard the front office 24 hours a day for a whole month!

Fang Nian briefly said a few words about everyone's work.

Expressed approval.

Then he explained: "I deliberately didn't talk about the things in Xisha because it's not something we need to get involved in."

"It's great to be able to do our best to maintain the current situation. Everyone has worked hard."

After a pause, Fang Nian looked at Wen Ye: "Secretary Wen, draft an announcement."

"Our goal has been basically achieved. Starting today, the frontier will be fully reduced and the low-key strategy will be officially launched;

When necessary, Mr. Guan will come forward to say hello and let the Internet and traditional media proactively and naturally reduce relevant reports."

"..."

The meeting didn't last long.

After all, most of the things had already happened before the 24th.

The global outbreak of Frontier Angels is just to prepare for the overall contraction of Frontier and the launch of a low-key strategy.

As for the reason, it’s actually very simple:

Cutting-edge and low-key, it is in the interests of more people.

For example, Big Brother, which has made little public noise in this process, and a series of ‘technological innovation’ companies that bear the brand of so-called national enterprises;

I don’t want the frontier to keep advancing rapidly.

The existence of the cutting edge has torn up too many fig leaves.

In the current situation, if we continue to be high-profile, the balance will be broken.

It’s that simple…

It is also easier for a company to keep a low profile, as long as it has no new products and no exposure.

For example, there was basically no big news about Dangcom Games in 2011. People who played games continued to play, that’s all.

This also has something to do with Qiu He’s greeting.

Today's cutting-edge low-key strategy is different. It not only reduces exposure, but also shrinks the apparent scope of business.

Anyway, breakthroughs in basic science cannot be achieved by relying on Internet popularity.

"..."

Speaking of which, Fang Nian prefers this proactive and low-key strategy.

As the old saying goes: Only by keeping silent can you make a fortune.

Now that Frontier has passed the early user accumulation stage, it’s time to keep a low profile and practice your big moves before coming out.

Like Fang Nian himself, there have been endless speculations about the other party on the Internet, but let alone the news about Shi Chui, there is not even a slightly concrete image.

This is also a proactive and low-key strategy.

But this was not because Fang Nian said hello, but because he had enough say as soon as he stepped forward. After showing such an attitude, everything happened naturally.

After all, Robin Li, Ding Sanshi, Charlie Zhang, Maperli, Lei Jun and others who have the right to speak in the Internet industry are all close partners of Mr. Fang.

"..."

Later, Frontier released an announcement through official channels.

"..."

First some official words.

Then go straight to the topic: "For corporate development, company strategic considerations, and after discussion at the shareholders' meeting, in view of the extremely unfriendly attributes of the American market, our company has made the following decision:

The prices of our hardware products, technologies, intellectual property rights, and services exported to the American market will be increased. In order to respect the spirit of the contract, if the partners cannot accept it, they can terminate the cooperation on their own.

Our company and its subsidiaries have stopped importing technology, intellectual property rights, etc. from the American market.

Our company and its subsidiaries will permanently withdraw from the American market and will no longer enter the American market.

Due to business adjustments, our company will no longer accept new third-party business cooperation from now on, including but not limited to Nuwa MindOS authorization and nwK closed source commercial authorization.

From now on, our company only accepts business contracts settled in RMB."

"Thank you for your cooperation."

"..."

As soon as the news came out, the whole Internet was in an uproar.

Many people were confused.

Frontier Angel Global was forced into liquidation and bankruptcy this morning. This morning, Frontier issued such a statement that was not in line with commercial behavior?

"What do you mean, are Frontier going to go into seclusion to cultivate immortality collectively?"

"E L, MEU didn't come out just today. Why did you mention stopping imports today? What do you mean?"

"I don't understand. I can't understand it, but I can see that there is a lot of resentment in the frontier and words like extremely unfriendly are used."

"..."

Then, while holding the key, something bubbled up: "I just got off the spacecraft, the coordinates are ominous."

"I suggest you think about the things that happened this month, such as X86 licensing and so on... I think many people know how many cooperation projects at Frontier were canceled this month;
To be continued...
