When Minion Chip Technology Company's new product launch conference was successfully held, as expected, none of the Wanwan merchants invited by Su An showed up at the venue.

Although computer manufacturers with Wawan Capital background did not attend the on-site press conference, it does not mean that these people are really arrogant to the extreme.

In official dealings, these manufacturers refused fair visits.

However, staff were still dispatched to enter the venue with the public in the name of consumers.

After all, it is the manufacturer that developed the first dual-core chip, and the manufacturing process used is comparable to Intel's factories.

This form of unannounced visit is not for future cooperation, but purely to satisfy inner curiosity.

Anyway, the dispatched staff will not identify themselves, let alone carry the company's work badge, so no one will pay attention to such a person.

As the venue was filled with people, the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Some fanatical users of Minion mobile phones are out of love for their homes and birds. Many people have already understood their firm support attitude without seeing the specific performance data of the chip models launched by Minion Chip Technology Company.

"For me, as long as I have access to the Internet and can browse forums to my heart's content, it's enough.

It would be better if it could decode high-definition images and watch high-definition DVDs.

Anyway, as long as the price of this chip is almost the same as Intel's Pentium 4, I will definitely support it without any hesitation." In order to show his firm attitude, some people directly promoted their needs for computers to the people around them.

But the people around me obviously didn’t understand the function of the chip, so they asked curiously: "Can a computer watch high-definition DVDs? Isn’t this decoding problem controlled by the playback software? What does this have to do with the CPU?"

If you want to watch high-definition DVD movies, just buy a DVD.

Using the CD-ROM drive on your computer to watch DVDs is too luxurious for you.

DVD drives on computers are so expensive, and they don’t have error correction functions.

Like our home DVD player, if there is a scratch error on your disc, the DVD player can automatically skip it. However, the optical drive on the computer will keep reading data crazily and will not automatically skip this section at all.

content.

Eventually, if you watch bad movies often, such an expensive DVD drive will be damaged."

It was obviously a new product launch conference for CPU, but the two of them actually talked about home DVDs.

The people in the seats behind them watched the two people in front of them chatting with little understanding, so they took the initiative to join in.

"The working mode of a computer's DVD drive is actually different from that of our home DVD players.

The purpose of the computer's optical drive is to read data, and even if the data is missing one byte, it is not allowed.

As for our home DVD players, if they encounter content that cannot be played, the system will automatically skip this section.

This setting is widely promoted by many manufacturers, claiming that their DVDs have magical digital error correction capabilities.

In fact, this function is basically a gimmick to defraud money.

There is no so-called digital error correction in this world, it is just a quick skip.

In addition, there is the decoding problem you just mentioned.

When playing videos on a computer, there are two decoding working modes.

One is software decoding and the other is hardware decoding.

If the CPU supports decoding, it is naturally the best mode.

If the CPU does not support it and relies entirely on software decoding, the software will occupy a lot of CPU resources.

Although we consumers can't see any difference in our eyes, software decoding that consumes a lot of CPU is destined to be eliminated by the market.

If a computer is watching a video, the CPU usage will exceed 50% or even higher. Then this computer is like a waste. It is better to buy a DVD player at a higher price.

I heard,

The next generation of CPUs and graphics cards will be able to hardware decode 1080p high-definition film sources.

If all this is true, when our country holds the Olympic Games, it is estimated that the videos seen on the entire Internet will be 1080 high-definition videos." This person had a look of longing on his face when he spoke.

However, this longing expression only lasted for a moment, and his face immediately darkened again.

Although I thought of a higher-definition picture, this kind of high-definition picture requires paying a high price.

Not to mention that this kind of picture requires a higher-performance CPU or graphics card.

Just thinking about the capacity of a 1080p video made the speaker frown.

The current mainstream videos are all in 480p format.

Even 720p high-definition video sources are rare online.

Although some forums provide downloads of high-definition film sources, a 90-minute movie with a 720p high-definition film source can reach about 400MB.

Nowadays, 80 GB hard drives are the mainstream in the market, but a hard drive of this size is a very luxurious investment for any consumer who likes to watch movies if it wants to store a large number of high-definition movies.

If a computer user stores a large number of videos, another hard drive must be attached.

As a result, additional costs will inevitably be incurred.

And the current market environment of hard disk prices remains high.

The 720p video format has put pressure on consumers. As for the higher-definition 1080p, I heard that a 90-minute movie requires two or three gigabytes of capacity.

This means that an 80G hard drive can only store up to 30 videos.

Even if it is an uncompressed high-bitrate film, some media have reported that the size of a standard movie-length high-definition film can reach 30 GB.

This means that an 80G hard drive can only store two videos.

Perhaps, this is the price to pay for enjoyment.

If a person has no desires or needs, radish and green vegetables can be eaten three times a day.

But once a person has extravagant hopes and desires, and wants big fish and meat every day, the price he pays will naturally increase.

Today, there are still many people enjoying the welcome experience of DVD quality in the 480p video world.

And these trendsetters who want to be at the forefront of the times already want to experience what it means to have two movies on one hard drive.

[Recommended, the Changyuan app for chasing books is really useful, everyone should try it soon.]

Just as a few people were chatting, the lights in the venue suddenly turned on.

The dim lights mean that the product launch is about to begin.

For a moment, the noisy background of the scene gradually became quiet.

This time, the speaker at the product launch was not Ni Nanguang as everyone expected, but a very young face.

When some people saw this face, they turned around and whispered to the people around them: "Can you imagine? The boss behind the scenes who dominates the entire mobile phone industry is this young man in front of me.

It was this young face that instantly disgraced Nokia and Motorola, which dominated the world.

Before these two companies could sit on the throne, they were pulled by their hair and thrown to the ground, and they even stomped on the faces of Motorola and Nokia mercilessly."

When people around me heard such words, they couldn't believe what they heard.

"Isn't it said in the industry that Ni Nanguang is from this company..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a look from the person next to him.

"Ni Nanguang is just the head of the R&D department of this company.

It is said that Ni Nanguang recruited a team from overseas.

It is such a young team that has transformed our country's integrated circuit production technology into a new one in just a few years.

Overtaking on a curve.

Although Ni Nanguang is a meritorious official, he is not the actual controller of this company.

It's just that I don't understand it now.

At the last mobile phone conference, this young man pushed Ni Nanguang to the front desk.

But this time, he actually stood in the spotlight himself." Those who have business dealings with Su An know that Su An is a very low-key young man in life.

If it hadn't been pointed out specifically, who would have thought that the young man in front of him would be the actual owner of Minions Technology Company.

However, it is precisely because of this that many people who do business with Su An are full of curiosity.

Everyone wants to see what kind of magic this product has that can make Su An break his low profile and move to the front desk, which can make him willing to be exposed in the spotlight.

Soon, as the sound of electricity when the microphone was turned on came from the speakers around the venue, the scene became completely quiet.

"Welcome everyone to our company's new product launch event.

In the next two hours, each of you will witness an important piece of history taking place.

But unfortunately, just before I took the stage, I got the list of all the guests.

What our company is launching today is a desktop-level chip for computer products. To this end, our company has specially invited all computer manufacturers in the world, especially some brand manufacturers from Wanwan.

However, our invitation to victory went unanswered.

None of these companies were present. I can only say that our company was looked down upon.

As a latecomer to the i industry, our company’s status in the world is naturally difficult to invite these seniors.

But as the leader in the mobile phone industry, we don't get any respect or face.
