The Pro series has a triple-camera design with zoom, wide-angle, and ultra-wide-angle lenses, which can focus on objects up to 2 centimeters in front. The basic iPhone 13 retains the diagonal arrangement of the wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lenses, but the 12-megapixel rear wide-angle lens has a larger sensor and can capture 50% more light.</p><p>In addition, the iPhone 13 Pro series features a display called \"Super Retina XDR with ProMotion,\" with a refresh rate twice that of older Apple phones, meaning smoother swiping and less latency on the iPhone touchscreen.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/510186d223bc22f07d4ce3bbf074c34b\" tg-width=\"562\" tg-height=\"310\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The iPhone 13 and its entire Pro series are powered by Apple's new generation A15 Bionic chip, which greatly improves CPU and GPU performance.

Apple states that \"Movie Mode,\" which is equivalent to being able to make movies with your phone, is a feature exclusive to the entire IPhone 13 series.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2ed54ea991a50d995e8db81c45f143b\" tg-width=\"611\" tg-height=\"384\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>New iPads and Mini with improved performance to ship next week; analysis questions production difficulties for seventh-generation smartwatches; global expansion of fitness streaming subscriptions weighs on stock prices of similar companies.</b></p><p>Before launching its most significant hardware product, the iPhone, Apple CEO Tim Cook first introduced new programs on the Apple TV+ streaming video subscription service, and said that the company is investing billions of dollars to create original content, which will cost $4.99 per month or can be bundled with other Apple services, but the company did not disclose the number of subscribers.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d69edd0fcd0b020405b6fc7b2554e2d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Apple subsequently launched a new entry-level tablet, the iPad, equipped with an upgraded A13 chip, which is 20% faster than the older A12 chip. The 12-megapixel front-facing camera will improve the quality of video calls such as Zoom and FaceTime, and has LTE wireless connectivity. The starting price of the new iPad remains unchanged at $329, but the base model has a larger 64GB of memory. It is available for pre-order now and will officially go on sale next week.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea1f74382c4dabaf50c14f28d15b6875\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"364\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The upgraded iPad Mini features a completely new design and performance improvements, and is described by the company as the most powerful product of its kind in history and the \"biggest upgrade ever.\" It will support 5G networks and have a smaller 8.3-inch screen. It has smaller bezels, a fingerprint sensor built into the top button, a 12-megapixel rear camera and stereo speakers, comes in various colors such as purple, uses a USB-C connector, and supports the second-generation Apple Stylus. Starting at $499, it is available for pre-order now and will officially go on sale next week.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c10fbc996b81d2feb2b18d4975963a9b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"365\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Apple also launched the seventh-generation Apple Watch Series 7, which features a redesigned appearance and software. The screen area is 20% larger than the sixth-generation Watch and can display more information, while retaining the industrial design with rounded edges. The screen is more crack-resistant and charges faster. The entry-level model is available in five colors, with aluminum, steel, and titanium cases, and older straps can be used with new models.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e8aed0154cb2cdec67681c13a5ce8eb8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>It is worth noting that although Apple stated that the new generation of smartwatches will start at $399, it did not disclose a specific release date, only stating that it will be available \"later this fall\". Some analysts suggest that the Apple Watch may encounter manufacturing challenges, leading to production delays.</p><p>In a recent report, Tianfeng International stated that Luxshare Precision, which is responsible for producing panel modules for the Apple Watch 7 series, is actively replicating its production lines and expects all production lines to begin mass production by the end of September. The supply of the Apple Watch 7 will improve significantly after mid-to-late October.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d60b68d36321e616ad8329b40f710f65\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Apple also introduced the Apple Fitness+ Fitness streaming subscription service, which will be launched in 15 additional countries this year, expanding to more than 20 countries worldwide. It will add content such as Pilates, winter Fitness, and guided meditation, as well as a multilingual version. It will also add the social feature \"Group Workouts,\" which allows users to schedule video Workouts with friends. It will be launched in late September and this fall.</p><p>Following the announcement of Apple Fitness+'s global expansion, Interactive Fitness platform Peloton Interactive fell more than 2%, retreating from a three-week high reached yesterday, while WW, formerly known as professional Weight loss consultancy Weight Watchers, fell nearly 5% to an 11-month low.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5174e0d18864d675948eec1105fc9f34\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"317\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Earlier on the day of the launch event, Apple had released a security patch for its mobile operating system iOS to fix vulnerabilities related to the iPhone iMessage feature. Research firm Citizen Lab says an Israeli company has been exploiting this vulnerability since February. The FBI and Israeli officials have been secretly investigating the company.</p><p>Analysts surveyed by financial software data firm FactSet predict that Apple will ship 239 million mobile phones this fiscal year, surpassing the record high of 231 million units in fiscal year 2015, and that iPhone sales will grow by 41% this year to a record $194 billion.<b>But Apple is unlikely to maintain this growth next year.</b>In July of this year, Apple expressed concern about the impact of a chip shortage in the mobile phone industry. Furthermore, sales typically decline 12 months after the launch of major new products such as the iPhone 12.</p>","source":"highlight_wallstreetcn","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The unoriginal \"13 Fragrances\" are here!

Pro等事宜，还有人根据新一代智能手表的发货时间“待定”推测遭遇生产困难。80分钟的发布会结束时，苹果跌幅扩大至1.5%，接近四周最低。\n\n美东时间9月14日周二下午1点（北京时间15日凌晨1点），苹果公司如期举行2021年秋季新品发布会。\n这是苹果因新冠疫情连续第七次举办的线上虚拟发布会，媒体称并无惊艳之处，公司股价下跌，80分钟的发布会结束时跌幅扩大至1.5%，或创8月19日以来的近四周最低。\n苹果新晋推出了新款旗舰智能手机iPhone 13系列、新版入门级iPad和iPad Mini、新一代智能手表Apple Watch，但没有提到外界期待的无线蓝牙耳机AirPods、笔记本电脑MacBook Pro等事宜。\n\niPhone 13全系列升级A15仿生芯片和电影拍摄模式、刘海更小、电池更大，Pro系列增设蓝色和1TB内存\n华尔街见闻曾提到，过去一年里，苹果利润创历史新高，在很大程度上归功于去年秋季推出的iPhone 12系列手机，这令iPhone 13系列成为本次发布会的重中之重。不过，跟踪苹果的分析师预计，与去年具有里程碑意义的5G版iPhone 12相比，新iPhone系列的升级幅度不会太大。\n今日发布的新款iPhone 13系列确实设计基本与去年相同，不过刘海更小、电池更大，均支持5G无线标准，电池续航时间将增加1.5至2.5个小时不等，9月17日开启预定，9月24日起发货。\niPhone 13 Mini和iPhone 13的屏幕尺寸仍维持5.4英寸和6.1英寸，并拥有五种颜色，起售价分别为699美元和799美元，也与去年价格相同，但基本款的储存空间提升至128GB。\n\niPhone 13 Pro和Pro Max的屏幕尺寸仍维持6.1英寸和6.7英寸，增设“Sierra Blue”的蓝色款，起售价分别为999美元和1099美元，与去年价格相同，但都增设1TB的超大内存选项。\n\n苹果发布会结束后，苹果最新款iPhone国行价格出炉：\n\n iPhone 13 mini国行起售价为5199元人民币，iPhone 13起售价为5999元，顶配的iPhone 13 Pro Max起售价为12999元，全系列9月17日起开始预购，9月24日正式发售。新款平板电脑iPad mini起售价为3799元。\n\n\niPhone 13及其Pro版本的最大区别仍为后置摄像头的个数，Pro系列有变焦、广角和超广角镜头的三摄设计，可对前处2厘米的物体对焦，iPhone 13基本款保留广角和超广角镜头的对角线排列，但12兆像素的后置广角镜头带有更大的传感器，可以捕捉多出50%的光线。\n此外，iPhone 13 Pro系列的显示屏被称为“Super Retina XDR with ProMotion”，刷新率是旧款苹果手机的两倍，这意味着iPhone触摸屏的滑动会更流畅、延迟更少。\n\niPhone 13及其Pro全系列都由苹果新一代A15仿生芯片驱动，CPU和GPU性能都大为提升，芯片里还有专门用于运行人工智能算法的部分。\n\n全系列手机都改进相机和摄影功能，增设“电影模式”（Cinematic mode），可对移动主体保持对焦，以及实时自动的对焦变换、创造丰富景深。苹果称，“电影模式”等于能用手机拍电影，是IPhone 13全系列独有的功能。\n\n新款iPad及Mini性能提升下周发货，分析质疑第七代智能手表遭遇生产困难，健身流媒体订阅的全球扩张打压同类公司股价\n发布最重磅硬件产品手机之前，苹果CEO库克首先介绍了Apple TV+流媒体视频订阅服务的新节目，并称正在投入数十亿美元制造原创内容，每月收费4.99美元或可与其他苹果服务捆绑付费，但公司并未透露订户数量。\n苹果随后推出了新款入门级平板电脑iPad，搭载升级后的A13芯片，运行速度较老版的A12芯片提升20%，12兆像素前值摄像头将提升Zoom和FaceTime等视频通话画质，并有LTE无线连接。新款iPad起售价不变为329美元，但基本款内存更大为64GB，即日起可预定，下周正式发售。\n\n升级版iPad Mini获得全新设计和性能提升，被公司称为史上最强大的同类产品和“史上最大升级”，将支持5G网络和拥有更小的8.3英寸屏幕。它的边框更小，指纹传感器内置在顶部按钮中，配置有12兆像素的后置摄像头和立体声扬声器，包括紫色等多种颜色，使用USB-C连接器，并支持第二代苹果触控笔。起售价499美元，即日起可预定，下周正式发售。\n\n苹果还推出了第七代苹果手表（Apple Watch Series 7），外观和软件都经过重新设计，屏幕面积较第六代手表增加20%并可显示更多信息，保留了带有圆角边缘的工业设计，屏幕更抗裂，充电速度更快。入门级型号有五种颜色选择，提供铝、钢和钛外壳，旧款表带可与新型号配合使用。\n\n值得注意的是，苹果虽称新一代智能手表起售价399美元，但没有透露具体发售日期，仅称“在今年秋季晚些时候”上市。有分析称，苹果手表可能遭遇制造挑战、进而导致生产延迟。\n天风国际曾在最新报告中称，负责生产Apple Watch 7 系列面板模组的立讯精密正积极复制产线，预计9月底所有产线开始大量生产，Apple Watch 7的供货自10月中下旬后将会有明显改善。\n\n苹果同时推介了Apple Fitness+健身流媒体订阅服务，今年将在额外15个国家推出，拓展到全球20余个国家，增设普拉提、冬季健身和引导冥想等内容和多语种版本，还将添加社交功能“Group Workouts”（团体健身），可与朋友相约视频锻炼，在9月下旬和今年秋季陆续推出。\n在Apple Fitness+全球扩展的消息发布后，互动健身平台Peloton Interactive跌超2%，从昨日所创的三周新高回落，前身为专业减重顾问公司Weight Watchers 的 WW跌近5%，至11个月最低。\n\n发布会当日稍早，苹果已向其移动操作系统iOS发布了相关的安全修复补丁，以修复与iPhone iMessage功能相关的漏洞。研究机构Citizen Lab称，一家以色列公司自2月份以来一直在利用这一弱点。美国联邦调查局和以色列官员一直在暗中调查该公司。\n金融软件数据公司FactSet调查的分析师预测，苹果本财年的手机出货量将为2.39亿部，超越2015财年2.31亿部的纪录最高，iPhone今年的销售额将增长41%，达到创纪录的1940亿美元。但苹果明年不太可能保持这种增长。今年7月，苹果表达了对手机行业芯片短缺影响的担忧。并且，在iPhone 12等重大新产品推出后的12个月，销售通常也会出现下滑。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4495,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":881034729,"gmtCreate":1631280946261,"gmtModify":1676530517575,"author":{"id":"3457141092286042","authorId":"3457141092286042","name":"价值投机投资","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be23b46444ac2a96142fb1b29256fc15","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3457141092286042","idStr":"3457141092286042"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"?yyds","listText":"?yyds","text":"?yyds","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/881034729","repostId":"1195688156","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1195688156","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1631280716,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1195688156?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-10

However, unexpectedly, it wasn't until Nvidia's self-disclosure on August 12 that people learned that the speech, which was less than 100 words and 14 seconds long, did not feature Jensen Huang himself on camera, but rather a synthetic \"digital avatar,\" a \"virtual Jensen Huang\" image created using Nvidia's GPU processor and the Omniverse software platform.</p><p>This event sparked heated discussions about technologies and concepts such as virtual reality, the metaverse, and AI face swapping, and also brought Nvidia, the American chip giant, out of the semiconductor industry and into the public eye.</p><p>Since its founding in 1993, under the leadership of Jensen Huang, NVIDIA has successfully created and led the GPU (graphics processor) chip category, with products covering the entire PC device GPU to server GPU market. In the past five years,<b>Nvidia's market capitalization grew from $31 billion to $505 billion, making it the world's seventh-largest semiconductor supplier.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/5RE.SI\">smart</a>A hot star company in the (AI) chip field.</b></p><p>At the same time, Nvidia's market capitalization exceeded<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/INTC\">Intel</a>Subsequently, the domestic semiconductor market saw greater market opportunities in the GPU and AI chip sectors.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/300474\">Jing Jiawei</a>Tianshu Zhixin, Denglin Technology, Biren Technology, Suiyuan Technology<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688256\">Cambrian</a>Companies such as Muxi Integrated Circuits are all clustered in the general-purpose processor sector.</p><p>In the past two years, the domestic semiconductor industry has undergone transformation. Due to Huawei HiSilicon,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SMI\">SMIC</a>The impact of the US \"Entity List\" and the chain reaction triggered by the global chip shortage have made it increasingly difficult for Chinese companies to purchase US semiconductor products, and the demand for \"domestic substitution\" has become increasingly strong.</p><p>On June 29, 2020, due to the further upgrade of the U.S. Export Control Regulations and the continuous adjustment of the members of the Entity List, Intel \"temporarily suspended\" its chip supply to Inspur Group.</p><p>Although Inspur announced on July 3 that Intel had resumed supplying it, the temporary supply disruption crisis between one company, the world's largest supplier of x86 architecture chips for PCs and cloud services, and the other, China's largest server manufacturer, serves as a wake-up call for the entire Chinese cloud computing and semiconductor industry.<b>As the demand for computing power grows stronger, China needs to mass-produce domestically produced GPUs and server chips that are fully independent and controllable.</b>This highlights that \"domestic substitution\" is becoming the biggest driving force for the development of China's semiconductor industry.</p><p><b>Furthermore, as a major global chip seller, China has not produced a chip giant like Nvidia, and the large market has not produced a large company to match it.</b>According to statistics from IC Insight, the global semiconductor market size was US$395.7 billion in 2020, of which the Chinese mainland market size was US$43.4 billion, making it the world's largest market and accounting for 36.24% of the global market. However, the total output value of semiconductor companies headquartered in mainland China in 2020 was only US$8.3 billion, accounting for only 5.9% of the market size.</p><p><b>Who can get a piece of this huge pie? When will the semiconductor industry be able to create a \"Chinese Nvidia\"?</b></p><p><h2>Missing the Golden Age</h2>Graphics processing units (GPUs), also known as display chips or vision processors, were originally proposed by NVIDIA in 1999. They are microprocessors specifically designed to run graphics operations on personal computers, workstations, game consoles, and mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, VR devices).</p><p>As the parallel computing advantages of GPUs are gradually explored, the application fields of GPUs have expanded from graphics processing to high-performance computing, gradually becoming the most mature and widely used general-purpose chips in AI computing. In June 2020, NVIDIA launched the A100 Tensor Core GPU based on the Ampere architecture, becoming the world's most powerful AI chip.</p><p>From the perspective of application terminals, GPUs can be divided into PC GPUs, server GPUs, and mobile GPUs, corresponding to three architectures: independent graphics cards composed of dedicated circuit boards and components, shared integrated graphics cards, and mobile GPUs packaged with other chips or modules into highly integrated SoCs—which are used in multiple application scenarios including mobile phones, automotive electronics, and AI.</p><p><b>since<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a>Following the acquisition of Canadian GPU manufacturer ATI in 2006, the global GPU market is currently dominated by the \"US chip giants\"—Intel, AMD, and Nvidia—in the PC and server GPU field. Intel has a clear advantage in the integrated GPU market, while Nvidia and AMD dominate the standalone GPU market.</b></p><p>According to data from Research firm Jon Peddie Research, in the first quarter of 2021, Intel ranked first in the global PC GPU market with a 68% market share, followed by AMD and Nvidia with 17% and 14% respectively, with the three companies holding a combined share of nearly 100%. In the global discrete GPU market, Nvidia is the leader in the data center GPU market, holding an 81% market share, while AMD ranks second with a 19% share.</p><p>In 2019 alone, NVIDIA captured 90% of the Chinese AI training chip market with products such as the V100 series, firmly grasping the huge AI chip sales market in China.</p><p>One of the core reasons why Nvidia has been able to maintain its position as the \"chip leader\" is its \"lightweight design model\". NVIDIA does not manufacture or package chips; it entrusts...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSM\">TSMC</a>With the OEM manufacturing completed, the company enjoys the benefits of advanced process technologies such as 7nm. According to financial reports, Nvidia's revenue increased by 233% between 2016 and 2021, and its operating profit doubled to $4.5 billion. In the three months ending in May this year, sales surged 84% year-on-year, while gross profit margin reached 64%.</p><p><b>In fact, China entered the field of GPU chip design a long time ago, but the results were not satisfactory.</b></p><p><b>Starting in the 1970s, China began to introduce semiconductor and integrated circuit technology and production lines. However, the result was an a vicious circle of \"generation after generation of imports and generation after generation of backwardness\". Coupled with the negative impact of the \"Hanxin No. 1\" fake chip incident on society, which caused China's \"independent processors\" to suffer a serious setback, and China's active promotion of WTO globalization, the company missed the golden age of the global semiconductor industry development, and downstream companies could only \"buy instead of manufacturing\".</b></p><p>It wasn't until 2000, marked by the issuance of the national \"Document No. 18,\" that China's semiconductor industry gradually formed an industrial organizational structure characterized by the separation of design, manufacturing, packaging, and testing, and introduced...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688981\">SMIC</a>A number of chip manufacturing (Foundry) companies, represented by [company name], have been built and put into production in China, resulting in a rapid improvement in their technological level.</p><p>Currently, companies such as Jingjia Microelectronics, Tianshu Zhixin, Denglin Technology, Biren Technology, Suiyuan Technology, Cambricon, and Muxi Integrated Circuits are all clustered in the general-purpose processor track.</p><p>In 2014, Jingjia Microelectronics (300474.SH), which started with military aircraft graphics display control modules, successfully developed the military GPU chip JM5400. Subsequently, in 2018, it successfully developed the second-generation GPU chip JM7200 with a 28nm process. Jingjia Microelectronics has moved from military customization to general-purpose GPUs, becoming one of the few companies in the world and the only one in China to achieve commercial mass production of independent GPUs.</p><p>In addition to Jingjia Microelectronics, in March 2021, Tianshu Zhixin released China's first GPGPU (General Purpose Graphics Processor) manufactured using a 7-nanometer process, which removed 30% of the graphics rendering part of the traditional GPU and was created solely to handle artificial intelligence (AI) applications. In June of this year, Suiyuan Technology released the \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip, China's largest AI computing chip to date, the \"Yunsui T20\" training accelerator card based on Suisi 2.0, and the \"Yunsui T21\" training OAM module.</p><p>However, it is worth noting that the JM7200 chip developed by Jingjia Microelectronics only has performance equivalent to that of the 2012 NVIDIA GTX 640, which is difficult to meet the application needs of enterprise customers. Even Suiyuan Technology's \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip only managed to match NVIDIA's A100, with two of the six Benchmark tests significantly surpassing the NVIDIA A100's performance. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"Suiyuan Technology Releases China's Largest AI Computing Chip, Accelerating the Implementation of Three Major Business Directions\")</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15cb73d2787595547a9ed01926f4dfbe\" tg-width=\"570\" tg-height=\"1926\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p><b>The main reason behind this is that China's semiconductor industry started late, with high technological thresholds, high cost elasticity, and high industrial concentration. As a result, the overall R&D investment, technology, and talent of Chinese GPU chip companies lag behind those of foreign countries. As a result, they still lag behind chip giants in terms of product performance and technology, and downstream companies still find it difficult to escape the situation of the \"Big Three American chip companies\".</b></p><p>Taking R&D investment as an example, from 2011 to 2020, Jingjia Microelectronics' total R&D investment was RMB 627 million, while Nvidia's R&D investment in 2020 alone reached US$3.924 billion, equivalent to approximately RMB 25.323 billion. Over the ten years, Nvidia's total investment exceeded RMB 120 billion, a difference of more than 190 times.</p><p>In terms of talent, as of the first half of 2021, NVIDIA had as many as 18,975 employees, while Jingjia Microelectronics had a total of 1,174 employees, far fewer than AMD's 2,000 employees at its Shanghai R&D center.</p><p>\"The AI chip and GPU chip market is quite unique. Unlike traditional dedicated processors, the technology is very complex. It requires a large amount of data and needs to be combined with specific algorithms in order to be put into market use.\"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNPS\">Xinsi Technology</a>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App in April this year, Xie Zhonghui, deputy general manager of China, said that if a company wants to make its first AI chip solid, it usually takes more than two to three years.</p><p>In his view, the chip and semiconductor industry itself is an industry with large investment, long cycles, and slow returns. The complete localization of technology requires long-term and continuous capital, talent, and technological accumulation, which is difficult to handle with the Internet mindset of \"throwing money and seeing returns\".</p><p><b>In addition, the hardware and software ecosystem combined with CUDA technology is another important reason why domestic chip companies have formed a significant gap with Nvidia.</b></p><p>In 2006, NVIDIA released the parallel computing platform CUDA, which includes a series of development tools. Only by installing and using this platform can complex parallel computing be performed. Anyone with a laptop equipped with an NVIDIA GPU can use CUDA to perform scientific and convenient programming computations, such as deep learning and AI algorithms, and develop related software. For more than a decade, NVIDIA has been relentlessly promoting CUDA, enabling more government and enterprise-level software to be developed based on the platform, combining NVIDIA's self-developed GPU hardware with CUDA software to efficiently achieve application implementation.</p><p>In contrast, there is currently no series of platforms in China that are deeply integrated with CUDA and NVIDIA hardware, indicating a significant gap in technological barriers. Most domestic GPU manufacturers, such as Tianshu Zhixin and Denglin, have adopted a strategy of being compatible with the CUDA open-source framework, preparing to cultivate their own software ecosystem on this basis.</p><p>\"In the short term, CUDA-compatible domestic GPUs are easier to develop. After all, writing operators is a labor-intensive industry, and user migration requires 100% migration, with the entire code set running on your chip. If the amount of code is small, fewer operators are needed, making the difficulty relatively low. However, in the long run, we still need to move away from compatibility thinking and develop our own core technologies,\" said an industry insider. He added that choosing compatibility mainly ensures that existing software remains usable, and in the future, they will continuously improve their own platforms to better match their own chips, thereby attracting developers to migrate.</p><p>However, some companies choose not to be compatible with the CUDA ecosystem. For example, Suiyuan Technology, which makes AI training and inference chips at the same time, comprehensively upgraded its \"Yusuan TopsRider\" software platform and the new \"Yunsui Cluster\" this year, hoping to gain ecosystem dominance.</p><p><b>In summary, these domestic chip companies that compete with Nvidia are still in the early stages of development. Their industrialization and marketization capabilities for AI chip technology are relatively weak, and they have not yet generated actual large-scale use. They still have a long way to go before they can surpass or replace \"China's Nvidia\".</b></p><p>In an interview with Titanium Media App, Yan Guihai, CEO of Zhongke Yushu, said that although China's demand side is still the world's largest single market with one of the highest growth rates and the \"demand side\" is still very strong, there is still a considerable gap in both design and manufacturing of high-end chips, and the \"supply side\" is not strong enough. He pointed out that the quality of the supply side depends not only on a single company, but on the capabilities of the entire industry chain. It is unrealistic to build such a large-scale and comprehensively leading enterprise in the short term.</p><p>Founded in 2018, Zhongke Yushu is a dedicated computing architecture developer incubated by the State Key Laboratory of Computer Architecture at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The company's valuation has now exceeded 1 billion yuan. On July 27 this year, Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan, led by Huatai Innovation, with Lingjun Investment and existing shareholder Guoxin Sichuang participating.</p><p>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App, Huang Liming, a partner at Hillhouse Capital and head of software and hard technology at Hillhouse Capital, stated that although the GPU market has broad prospects, China...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V03.SI\">Startup company</a>It's difficult to directly turn it into \"Nvidia\". Besides the technical difficulty, it also needs to be combined with strong applications—involving a software system and software ecosystem, which is extremely demanding for startups.</p><p>In February 2020, Hillhouse Capital launched its independent VC brand, Hillhouse Capital. Since then, it has invested in the chip and semiconductor field, including semiconductor IP company Xin Yaohui, EDA manufacturer Xin Huazhang, GPU platform Biren Technology, DPU company Nebula Intelligent Connectivity, as well as Tianke Heda in the silicon carbide field, Minxin Semiconductor in the optical chip field, and Xingsi Semiconductor in the mobile phone baseband field.</p><p>Huang Liming emphasized that Hillhouse Capital believes that there will ultimately not be many companies that can emerge in this direction, whether overseas or domestically.</p><p><h2>The trend has arrived.</h2>“Let’s not dwell on how to replace Nvidia right now; we’ll take it one step at a time. I think China first needs to have domestically produced AI chips, general-purpose GPUs, FPGAs, and other underlying computing power. As long as there is market demand in China, we will definitely have many opportunities,” Zhang Gaonan, managing partner of China Reflection Capital, told Titanium Media App. He added that the domestic semiconductor industry has reached its peak, and China now has the right timing, geographical advantages, and human resources to enter the GPU market. In particular, semiconductors and next-generation AI technology are areas where China must break through.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan gave an example,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688111\">Kingsoft Office</a>Although the product is inferior to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>The Office suite, but the market has given it a market value of more than 110 billion yuan. One of the important reasons behind this is that China must have a domestically produced Office, and the same principle applies to the domestically produced GPU market.</p><p>China Reflection Capital is one of the earliest private equity funds in China To invest in the mobile internet and cultural industries. In recent years, the B2B sector has also become a key investment area for China Reflection Capital. Currently, China Reflection Capital has invested in more than 30 projects in the B2B sector, with a total investment exceeding 700 million yuan. The ecosystem is being built by technology investor Zhang Gaonan. In the fields of data middleware and underlying computing power, China Reflection Capital has invested in projects such as Biren Technology, Tianyun Big Data, and Zhongke Haiwei.</p><p>In fact, as a general-purpose platform that spans visual computing and AI computing, GPUs have a huge market potential.<b>according to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601555\">Dongwu Securities</a>It is estimated that by 2027, the market size for domestic substitution in the GPU field will exceed US$34.1 billion. In addition to the existing gaming market, there is room for further development in areas such as industry, healthcare, and military aerospace.</b></p><p>In March of this year, Biren Technology, a general-purpose intelligent chip designer co-founded by Zhang Wen, former president of SenseTime, completed its Series B financing. Since its establishment in September 2019, the company has raised a total of over RMB 4.7 billion, with investors including Hillhouse Capital, China Reflection Capital, and others.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601318\">Ping An</a>China Merchants Capital, BAI Capital, Guosheng Group State-owned Assets Reform Fund, and other companies have valuations exceeding 10 billion yuan, making them one of the fastest-growing \"unicorn\" companies in the semiconductor industry.</p><p><b>Besides Biren, companies such as Muxi Integrated Circuits and Moore Threads that have entered the GPU field have also completed financing.</b></p><p>On August 25, GPU manufacturer Muxi Integrated Circuits announced the completion of a RMB 1 billion Series A financing round.

Investors include China State-owned Enterprise Restructuring Fund Co., Ltd.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00810\">Internet Investment in China</a>Funds include Matrix Partners China, Heli Capital, Sequoia China, Lightspeed China, Guochuang Zhongding, Smart Internet Industry Fund, Shanghai Science and Technology Innovation Fund, and Lenovo Ventures. Moore Threads, founded in 2020, claimed to have completed two rounds of multi-billion yuan financing within 100 days. The team members were mainly from Nvidia, and investors included Shenzhen Capital Group and Sequoia Capital.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CHN\">China Fund</a>China Merchants Venture Capital, ByteDance, Pony.ai, Five Sources Capital, etc.</p><p><b>However, an interesting phenomenon is that the three startups mentioned above, Biren, Muxi, and Moore Thread, are veritable \"PPT financing chip manufacturing\". At the time of financing, none of them completed the tape-out (trial production on the assembly line) of their first chip.</b></p><p>Why are market investors willing to open their wallets to this? Several investors interviewed by Titanium Media App said that these projects can receive a lot of capital support because they are in the early stages of investment, mainly focusing on the team and the track: the AI chip track has reached its peak, and the senior management team is all from the \"Big Three American chip giants\".</p><p>“I think we need to give these companies opportunities and patience. It’s impossible for 500 people to write PowerPoint presentations. Manufacturing chips takes 5 to 10 years, and the reason we’re willing to invest is not for speculation or deception. I believe that investing in the semiconductor sector is inherently risky. You need to have a long-term plan and a strong risk tolerance, which is completely different from investing in innovative models in the internet industry,” the aforementioned investor told Titanium Media App.</p><p>However, some semiconductor industry investors pointed out that the aforementioned investment projects are essentially aimed at boosting market capitalization and achieving higher returns. Especially in the \"chip boom\" environment, venture capital institutions need to continuously seek out these GPU and AI chip companies in the early to mid-stages, hoping to gamble on a higher return.</p><p>In addition, in this wave of GPU startups, the founding team gave rise to the \"Big Three American chip giants\". For example, Zheng Jinshan, chief scientist of Tianshu Smart Chip, previously served as chief technology expert at AMD; Mu Xi's founding team mainly comes from AMD. CEO Chen Weiliang previously served as Senior Director of Graphics R&D at AMD, and CTO Yang Jian previously served as an AMD Fellow. Li Xinrong, the newly appointed co-CEO of Biren Technology, previously served as AMD's global vice president, and Chen Wenzhong, senior vice president of Biren Technology, also previously worked at AMD.</p><p>In response, Zhang Gaonan stated that AMD is one of the top two chip giants in the GPU field. The core research and development of GPUs is all in Shanghai, while the research and development of graphics rendering is in the United States. Companies can contact executives from AMD and Nvidia to communicate, and the person they ultimately choose will definitely be a leader in the semiconductor industry.</p><p>Yan Guihai believes that in emerging niche markets, leveraging the demand-side application \"momentum,\" Chinese chip companies are concentrating their superior resources, serving local enterprises, and emphasizing development agility, giving them the opportunity to surpass chip giants like Nvidia in product definition and solution iteration cycles.<b>He predicts that a number of technologically advanced domestic GPU and DPU companies will emerge within 10 years.</b></p><p>\"Among the five stages of the chip industry: design, manufacturing, packaging and testing, materials, and EDA, design is the most relevant to applications. Our greatest advantage lies in applications, so we have a great opportunity to achieve breakthroughs in the 'design' stage and then gradually expand our successful empire by using these points to drive overall development.\" The so-called \"leapfrogging\" is still a catch-up strategy. Only by entering a new track facing the future and accelerating at full speed can we more likely occupy a new strategic high ground. We hope that within 10 years, a number of technologically advanced, product-solid, and strategically minded companies will emerge. Yan Guihai told Titanium Media App.</p><p>Zhang Wen, founder of Biren Technology, said that the capability requirements for chip companies have been raised from the product level to the system and ecosystem levels. In less than five years, China will catch up with or even lead international standards in the field of AI chip design. He emphasized that surpassing Nvidia requires redefining a product and a market.</p><p><h2>The multi-billion dollar DPU chip market is booming.</h2>According to Jensen Huang, the data processing unit (DPU), which is responsible for transmitting and processing data in data centers, together with the CPU and GPU, forms the \"three pillars of future computing\". While Chinese chip companies are focusing on GPUs, Nvidia is setting its sights on the two new markets of CPUs and DPUs.</p><p>In September 2020, Nvidia announced its plan to acquire British chip designer Arm from Japan's Software Group for $40 billion, which is expected to be the largest merger and acquisition in the semiconductor industry. However, the deal is controversial and currently awaits approval from governments such as the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and China. However, in April 2021, Nvidia announced its entry into the data center CPU market, releasing the Grace CPU processor, which is what Jensen Huang mentioned at the beginning of this article. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"UK government intervenes, Nvidia's $40 billion acquisition of Arm changes\")</p><p>In addition to CPUs and GPUs, Nvidia is also developing DPUs. In 2019, Nvidia announced its acquisition of Israeli network chip manufacturer Mellanox for $6.9 billion in all-cash, and ultimately acquired it. In this largest acquisition in Nvidia's history, Jensen Huang valued Myloros's unrivaled capabilities in areas such as data center technology.<b>In October 2020, NVIDIA launched its first DPU — the NVIDIA BlueField series of data processors.</b></p><p>Ultimately, DPUs are more flexible and secure. More importantly, they can free up CPU computing power, relieve server load, significantly reduce overall costs through low power consumption, and even improve the performance of AI and machine learning applications.</p><p>According to IDC statistics, the global demand for computing power doubles every 3.5 months, far exceeding the current growth rate of computing power. Driven by this, global computing, storage and network infrastructure is also undergoing a fundamental transformation: various \"X\" PU chips have emerged to cooperate with some workloads with excessive data volumes and excessive CPU resources. In addition to chips such as GPUs and FPGAs, DPUs are the next \"X\" PU.</p><p>Industry insiders used a vivid analogy: the internet is like building a road. In the 1G and 10G era, roads were no longer wide enough, and there were more and more cars. In order to balance the pressure, by increasing traffic lights and deploying more traffic police to better coordinate resources, efficiency has been greatly improved, but it is still not enough. The first step is to widen the roads, which means increasing bandwidth. However, reducing the number of roads from two to four will still cause congestion relying solely on traffic lights and a limited number of traffic police. But we cannot increase the number of traffic police indefinitely. This requires the roads to be more intelligent and help solve congestion.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan pointed out that a large amount of network management is in the CPU, which occupies container capacity, while the DPU intelligently provides space capacity for the server. A large amount of virtualized space can increase computing power requirements.</p><p><b>By 2020, DPUs had surpassed competitor Intel's Infrastructure Processors (IPUs) and SmartNICs in popularity, giving every company eyeing the data center business a share of the pie. DPUs have become a new track that major chip giants and startups are vying to develop. Domestic DPUs are now in a state of flourishing, with Sequoia Capital, Hillhouse Capital, CDH Investments, and SoftBank China all entering the market.</b></p><p>In April of this year, according to data from Tianyancha, domestic DPU chip supplier \"Yunbao Intelligent\" completed...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00700\">Tencent</a>Angel round financing jointly raised by investors, Sequoia Capital, Yaotu Capital, and others; At the end of May, Xinqiyuan completed a Pre-A round of financing worth hundreds of millions of yuan, with investors including SoftBank China and Pudong Science and Technology Innovation Group. On July 27, DPU chip developer Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan led by Huatai Innovation. On August 30, Nebula Intelligent, a DPU chip developer, announced the completion of a hundreds of millions of yuan angel round of financing, led by Hillhouse Capital, with CDH Investments VGC and Walden International China Fund participating in the follow-on investment. In early September, IDG Capital launched its \"Yunmai Xinlian\" angel round financing project.</p><p>\"DPUs may become the third computing chip after CPUs and GPUs, but structurally speaking, DPUs will be more heterogeneous and specialized,\" Yan Guihai said in an interview with Titanium Media App and other platforms. He added that the background to the emergence of DPUs is the demand for computing latency, data security, and resource virtualization brought about by the trend of end-edge-cloud integration caused by the data explosion in the intelligent era. The CPU is overwhelmed by these non-business loads and urgently needs an ideal object to share these computational loads.</p><p><b>Leopard Research Institute predicts that the Chinese DPU market is expected to reach $3.74 billion by 2025. The global DPU market is projected to reach US$13.57 billion by 2025.</b>The report also points out that data circulation is the largest application market for DPUs, with bare metal services having a strong demand for DPUs. DPUs are mainly used in edge computing scenarios in the telecommunications market, with a penetration rate of less than 5%. DPUs for the field of intelligent driving are still in the exploratory stage, and it is expected that DPUs will not be deployed in the field of intelligent driving until 2023.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7170c585dab44018726df81a32c63d62\" tg-width=\"808\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p>China DPU Market Size, Forecast 2020-2025, Source: Toubao Research Institute</p><p>Yan Guihai pointed out that CPU performance has increased from 30% per year 5-10 years ago to less than 3% per year three years ago. Network bandwidth is still growing by about 35% annually.</p><p>With<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/600918\">Zhongtai Securities</a>For example, the challenge the company faced at the time was that compliance checks on transaction reports were too slow, and it needed to improve transaction efficiency. Therefore, Zhongke Yushu, together with Zhongtai Securities and Shanghai Stock Exchange Technology Co., Ltd., jointly developed a high-speed risk control system solution to accelerate this process. Zhongke Yushu has successively developed a number of products and solutions, including ultra-low latency smart network cards and data computing acceleration cards, which are mainly aimed at high-bandwidth, low-latency, and data-intensive scenarios. The company has already achieved quarterly revenue in the tens of millions this year. Zhongke Yushu's next-generation DPU chip is expected to be designed by the end of 2021 and is expected to be able to process up to 200G of network bandwidth data.</p><p><b>However, although the DPU market is booming, the concept is relatively new, there are many unknowns, and the investment risks are also greater.</b></p><p>Lu Sheng, CEO of Xinqiyuan, pointed out that the barriers to entry in the DPU sub-sector are still relatively high. In addition to technical barriers, there are also market barriers, which require customers to continuously iterate, especially in conjunction with the continuous upgrading of open-source software to adapt to the rapidly changing software and hardware environment of customers. Therefore, before investing, VCs (venture capitalists) must first identify the sector and have sufficient patience. He emphasized that investors need to constantly observe the market and adjust their judgments, as no one can predict the future development prospects of DPUs.</p><p>Some media outlets believe that Nvidia's entry into the newly opened CPU and DPU battlefield may be beneficial for Chinese GPU manufacturers, especially since Nvidia is still investing a lot of energy in the $40 billion acquisition of British chip designer Arm. This may be an opportunity for startup GPU companies to catch up.</p><p>As Zhang Gaonan told Titanium Media App, \"Logically speaking, things with low barriers to entry are usually not very scarce. (In the chip and semiconductor industry) some things are very difficult and require long-term investment. Although they are high-risk, someone has to do them. This is a long-term investment that is truly beneficial to the country, and investment should actually be encouraged. Otherwise, if no one does these difficult things that require long-term investment, you will never get to the top.\"</p><p>Zhang Gaonan emphasized that while venture capital must pursue returns, he believes that, given the overall reasonable allocation of funds, investing in startups in the semiconductor sector not only has strong social significance but is also an important manifestation of a kind of long-term value investing.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>When was \"Nvidia\" born in China?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhen was \"Nvidia\" born in China?\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1065587721\">\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/72948639b39fd795a430fcaa2772851c);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">TMTPost </p>\n<p class=\"h-time smaller\">2021-09-09 15:02</p>\n</div>\n</a>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01e0bbbfdbdc6f8f2f7ce512582f7c3e\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"750\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">NVIDIA</a>CEO Jensen Huang (Image source: Nvidia official website)</p><p>\"The product I am about to showcase incorporates new GPU-accelerated computing capabilities and features the Mellanox high-performance network.

Intel has a clear advantage in the integrated GPU market, while Nvidia and AMD dominate the standalone GPU market.</b></p><p>According to data from Research firm Jon Peddie Research, in the first quarter of 2021, Intel ranked first in the global PC GPU market with a 68% market share, followed by AMD and Nvidia with 17% and 14% respectively, with the three companies holding a combined share of nearly 100%. In the global discrete GPU market, Nvidia is the leader in the data center GPU market, holding an 81% market share, while AMD ranks second with a 19% share.</p><p>In 2019 alone, NVIDIA captured 90% of the Chinese AI training chip market with products such as the V100 series, firmly grasping the huge AI chip sales market in China.</p><p>One of the core reasons why Nvidia has been able to maintain its position as the \"chip leader\" is its \"lightweight design model\".

Subsequently, in 2018, it successfully developed the second-generation GPU chip JM7200 with a 28nm process. Jingjia Microelectronics has moved from military customization to general-purpose GPUs, becoming one of the few companies in the world and the only one in China to achieve commercial mass production of independent GPUs.</p><p>In addition to Jingjia Microelectronics, in March 2021, Tianshu Zhixin released China's first GPGPU (General Purpose Graphics Processor) manufactured using a 7-nanometer process, which removed 30% of the graphics rendering part of the traditional GPU and was created solely to handle artificial intelligence (AI) applications. In June of this year, Suiyuan Technology released the \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip, China's largest AI computing chip to date, the \"Yunsui T20\" training accelerator card based on Suisi 2.0, and the \"Yunsui T21\" training OAM module.</p><p>However, it is worth noting that the JM7200 chip developed by Jingjia Microelectronics only has performance equivalent to that of the 2012 NVIDIA GTX 640, which is difficult to meet the application needs of enterprise customers. Even Suiyuan Technology's \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip only managed to match NVIDIA's A100, with two of the six Benchmark tests significantly surpassing the NVIDIA A100's performance.

As a result, the overall R&D investment, technology, and talent of Chinese GPU chip companies lag behind those of foreign countries. As a result, they still lag behind chip giants in terms of product performance and technology, and downstream companies still find it difficult to escape the situation of the \"Big Three American chip companies\".</b></p><p>Taking R&D investment as an example, from 2011 to 2020, Jingjia Microelectronics' total R&D investment was RMB 627 million, while Nvidia's R&D investment in 2020 alone reached US$3.924 billion, equivalent to approximately RMB 25.323 billion. Over the ten years, Nvidia's total investment exceeded RMB 120 billion, a difference of more than 190 times.</p><p>In terms of talent, as of the first half of 2021, NVIDIA had as many as 18,975 employees, while Jingjia Microelectronics had a total of 1,174 employees, far fewer than AMD's 2,000 employees at its Shanghai R&D center.</p><p>\"The AI chip and GPU chip market is quite unique. Unlike traditional dedicated processors, the technology is very complex. It requires a large amount of data and needs to be combined with specific algorithms in order to be put into market use.\"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNPS\">Xinsi Technology</a>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App in April this year, Xie Zhonghui, deputy general manager of China, said that if a company wants to make its first AI chip solid, it usually takes more than two to three years.</p><p>In his view, the chip and semiconductor industry itself is an industry with large investment, long cycles, and slow returns. The complete localization of technology requires long-term and continuous capital, talent, and technological accumulation, which is difficult to handle with the Internet mindset of \"throwing money and seeing returns\".</p><p><b>In addition, the hardware and software ecosystem combined with CUDA technology is another important reason why domestic chip companies have formed a significant gap with Nvidia.</b></p><p>In 2006, NVIDIA released the parallel computing platform CUDA, which includes a series of development tools. Only by installing and using this platform can complex parallel computing be performed. Anyone with a laptop equipped with an NVIDIA GPU can use CUDA to perform scientific and convenient programming computations, such as deep learning and AI algorithms, and develop related software. For more than a decade, NVIDIA has been relentlessly promoting CUDA, enabling more government and enterprise-level software to be developed based on the platform, combining NVIDIA's self-developed GPU hardware with CUDA software to efficiently achieve application implementation.</p><p>In contrast, there is currently no series of platforms in China that are deeply integrated with CUDA and NVIDIA hardware, indicating a significant gap in technological barriers. Most domestic GPU manufacturers, such as Tianshu Zhixin and Denglin, have adopted a strategy of being compatible with the CUDA open-source framework, preparing to cultivate their own software ecosystem on this basis.</p><p>\"In the short term, CUDA-compatible domestic GPUs are easier to develop. After all, writing operators is a labor-intensive industry, and user migration requires 100% migration, with the entire code set running on your chip. If the amount of code is small, fewer operators are needed, making the difficulty relatively low. However, in the long run, we still need to move away from compatibility thinking and develop our own core technologies,\" said an industry insider. He added that choosing compatibility mainly ensures that existing software remains usable, and in the future, they will continuously improve their own platforms to better match their own chips, thereby attracting developers to migrate.</p><p>However, some companies choose not to be compatible with the CUDA ecosystem. For example, Suiyuan Technology, which makes AI training and inference chips at the same time, comprehensively upgraded its \"Yusuan TopsRider\" software platform and the new \"Yunsui Cluster\" this year, hoping to gain ecosystem dominance.</p><p><b>In summary, these domestic chip companies that compete with Nvidia are still in the early stages of development. Their industrialization and marketization capabilities for AI chip technology are relatively weak, and they have not yet generated actual large-scale use. They still have a long way to go before they can surpass or replace \"China's Nvidia\".</b></p><p>In an interview with Titanium Media App, Yan Guihai, CEO of Zhongke Yushu, said that although China's demand side is still the world's largest single market with one of the highest growth rates and the \"demand side\" is still very strong, there is still a considerable gap in both design and manufacturing of high-end chips, and the \"supply side\" is not strong enough. He pointed out that the quality of the supply side depends not only on a single company, but on the capabilities of the entire industry chain. It is unrealistic to build such a large-scale and comprehensively leading enterprise in the short term.</p><p>Founded in 2018, Zhongke Yushu is a dedicated computing architecture developer incubated by the State Key Laboratory of Computer Architecture at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The company's valuation has now exceeded 1 billion yuan. On July 27 this year, Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan, led by Huatai Innovation, with Lingjun Investment and existing shareholder Guoxin Sichuang participating.</p><p>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App, Huang Liming, a partner at Hillhouse Capital and head of software and hard technology at Hillhouse Capital, stated that although the GPU market has broad prospects, China...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V03.SI\">Startup company</a>It's difficult to directly turn it into \"Nvidia\". Besides the technical difficulty, it also needs to be combined with strong applications—involving a software system and software ecosystem, which is extremely demanding for startups.</p><p>In February 2020, Hillhouse Capital launched its independent VC brand, Hillhouse Capital. Since then, it has invested in the chip and semiconductor field, including semiconductor IP company Xin Yaohui, EDA manufacturer Xin Huazhang, GPU platform Biren Technology, DPU company Nebula Intelligent Connectivity, as well as Tianke Heda in the silicon carbide field, Minxin Semiconductor in the optical chip field, and Xingsi Semiconductor in the mobile phone baseband field.</p><p>Huang Liming emphasized that Hillhouse Capital believes that there will ultimately not be many companies that can emerge in this direction, whether overseas or domestically.</p><p><h2>The trend has arrived.</h2>“Let’s not dwell on how to replace Nvidia right now; we’ll take it one step at a time. I think China first needs to have domestically produced AI chips, general-purpose GPUs, FPGAs, and other underlying computing power. As long as there is market demand in China, we will definitely have many opportunities,” Zhang Gaonan, managing partner of China Reflection Capital, told Titanium Media App. He added that the domestic semiconductor industry has reached its peak, and China now has the right timing, geographical advantages, and human resources to enter the GPU market. In particular, semiconductors and next-generation AI technology are areas where China must break through.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan gave an example,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688111\">Kingsoft Office</a>Although the product is inferior to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>The Office suite, but the market has given it a market value of more than 110 billion yuan. One of the important reasons behind this is that China must have a domestically produced Office, and the same principle applies to the domestically produced GPU market.</p><p>China Reflection Capital is one of the earliest private equity funds in China To invest in the mobile internet and cultural industries. In recent years, the B2B sector has also become a key investment area for China Reflection Capital. Currently, China Reflection Capital has invested in more than 30 projects in the B2B sector, with a total investment exceeding 700 million yuan. The ecosystem is being built by technology investor Zhang Gaonan. In the fields of data middleware and underlying computing power, China Reflection Capital has invested in projects such as Biren Technology, Tianyun Big Data, and Zhongke Haiwei.</p><p>In fact, as a general-purpose platform that spans visual computing and AI computing, GPUs have a huge market potential.<b>according to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601555\">Dongwu Securities</a>It is estimated that by 2027, the market size for domestic substitution in the GPU field will exceed US$34.1 billion. In addition to the existing gaming market, there is room for further development in areas such as industry, healthcare, and military aerospace.</b></p><p>In March of this year, Biren Technology, a general-purpose intelligent chip designer co-founded by Zhang Wen, former president of SenseTime, completed its Series B financing. Since its establishment in September 2019, the company has raised a total of over RMB 4.7 billion, with investors including Hillhouse Capital, China Reflection Capital, and others.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601318\">Ping An</a>China Merchants Capital, BAI Capital, Guosheng Group State-owned Assets Reform Fund, and other companies have valuations exceeding 10 billion yuan, making them one of the fastest-growing \"unicorn\" companies in the semiconductor industry.</p><p><b>Besides Biren, companies such as Muxi Integrated Circuits and Moore Threads that have entered the GPU field have also completed financing.</b></p><p>On August 25, GPU manufacturer Muxi Integrated Circuits announced the completion of a RMB 1 billion Series A financing round. Founders Chen Weiliang and Yang Jian, among others, are from American chip giant AMD. Investors include China State-owned Enterprise Restructuring Fund Co., Ltd.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00810\">Internet Investment in China</a>Funds include Matrix Partners China, Heli Capital, Sequoia China, Lightspeed China, Guochuang Zhongding, Smart Internet Industry Fund, Shanghai Science and Technology Innovation Fund, and Lenovo Ventures. Moore Threads, founded in 2020, claimed to have completed two rounds of multi-billion yuan financing within 100 days. The team members were mainly from Nvidia, and investors included Shenzhen Capital Group and Sequoia Capital.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CHN\">China Fund</a>China Merchants Venture Capital, ByteDance, Pony.ai, Five Sources Capital, etc.</p><p><b>However, an interesting phenomenon is that the three startups mentioned above, Biren, Muxi, and Moore Thread, are veritable \"PPT financing chip manufacturing\". At the time of financing, none of them completed the tape-out (trial production on the assembly line) of their first chip.</b></p><p>Why are market investors willing to open their wallets to this? Several investors interviewed by Titanium Media App said that these projects can receive a lot of capital support because they are in the early stages of investment, mainly focusing on the team and the track: the AI chip track has reached its peak, and the senior management team is all from the \"Big Three American chip giants\".</p><p>“I think we need to give these companies opportunities and patience. It’s impossible for 500 people to write PowerPoint presentations. Manufacturing chips takes 5 to 10 years, and the reason we’re willing to invest is not for speculation or deception. I believe that investing in the semiconductor sector is inherently risky. You need to have a long-term plan and a strong risk tolerance, which is completely different from investing in innovative models in the internet industry,” the aforementioned investor told Titanium Media App.</p><p>However, some semiconductor industry investors pointed out that the aforementioned investment projects are essentially aimed at boosting market capitalization and achieving higher returns. Especially in the \"chip boom\" environment, venture capital institutions need to continuously seek out these GPU and AI chip companies in the early to mid-stages, hoping to gamble on a higher return.</p><p>In addition, in this wave of GPU startups, the founding team gave rise to the \"Big Three American chip giants\". For example, Zheng Jinshan, chief scientist of Tianshu Smart Chip, previously served as chief technology expert at AMD; Mu Xi's founding team mainly comes from AMD. CEO Chen Weiliang previously served as Senior Director of Graphics R&D at AMD, and CTO Yang Jian previously served as an AMD Fellow. Li Xinrong, the newly appointed co-CEO of Biren Technology, previously served as AMD's global vice president, and Chen Wenzhong, senior vice president of Biren Technology, also previously worked at AMD.</p><p>In response, Zhang Gaonan stated that AMD is one of the top two chip giants in the GPU field. The core research and development of GPUs is all in Shanghai, while the research and development of graphics rendering is in the United States. Companies can contact executives from AMD and Nvidia to communicate, and the person they ultimately choose will definitely be a leader in the semiconductor industry.</p><p>Yan Guihai believes that in emerging niche markets, leveraging the demand-side application \"momentum,\" Chinese chip companies are concentrating their superior resources, serving local enterprises, and emphasizing development agility, giving them the opportunity to surpass chip giants like Nvidia in product definition and solution iteration cycles.<b>He predicts that a number of technologically advanced domestic GPU and DPU companies will emerge within 10 years.</b></p><p>\"Among the five stages of the chip industry: design, manufacturing, packaging and testing, materials, and EDA, design is the most relevant to applications. Our greatest advantage lies in applications, so we have a great opportunity to achieve breakthroughs in the 'design' stage and then gradually expand our successful empire by using these points to drive overall development.\" The so-called \"leapfrogging\" is still a catch-up strategy. Only by entering a new track facing the future and accelerating at full speed can we more likely occupy a new strategic high ground. We hope that within 10 years, a number of technologically advanced, product-solid, and strategically minded companies will emerge. Yan Guihai told Titanium Media App.</p><p>Zhang Wen, founder of Biren Technology, said that the capability requirements for chip companies have been raised from the product level to the system and ecosystem levels. In less than five years, China will catch up with or even lead international standards in the field of AI chip design. He emphasized that surpassing Nvidia requires redefining a product and a market.</p><p><h2>The multi-billion dollar DPU chip market is booming.</h2>According to Jensen Huang, the data processing unit (DPU), which is responsible for transmitting and processing data in data centers, together with the CPU and GPU, forms the \"three pillars of future computing\". While Chinese chip companies are focusing on GPUs, Nvidia is setting its sights on the two new markets of CPUs and DPUs.</p><p>In September 2020, Nvidia announced its plan to acquire British chip designer Arm from Japan's Software Group for $40 billion, which is expected to be the largest merger and acquisition in the semiconductor industry. However, the deal is controversial and currently awaits approval from governments such as the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and China. However, in April 2021, Nvidia announced its entry into the data center CPU market, releasing the Grace CPU processor, which is what Jensen Huang mentioned at the beginning of this article. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"UK government intervenes, Nvidia's $40 billion acquisition of Arm changes\")</p><p>In addition to CPUs and GPUs, Nvidia is also developing DPUs. In 2019, Nvidia announced its acquisition of Israeli network chip manufacturer Mellanox for $6.9 billion in all-cash, and ultimately acquired it. In this largest acquisition in Nvidia's history, Jensen Huang valued Myloros's unrivaled capabilities in areas such as data center technology.<b>In October 2020, NVIDIA launched its first DPU — the NVIDIA BlueField series of data processors.</b></p><p>Ultimately, DPUs are more flexible and secure. More importantly, they can free up CPU computing power, relieve server load, significantly reduce overall costs through low power consumption, and even improve the performance of AI and machine learning applications.</p><p>According to IDC statistics, the global demand for computing power doubles every 3.5 months, far exceeding the current growth rate of computing power. Driven by this, global computing, storage and network infrastructure is also undergoing a fundamental transformation: various \"X\" PU chips have emerged to cooperate with some workloads with excessive data volumes and excessive CPU resources. In addition to chips such as GPUs and FPGAs, DPUs are the next \"X\" PU.</p><p>Industry insiders used a vivid analogy: the internet is like building a road. In the 1G and 10G era, roads were no longer wide enough, and there were more and more cars. In order to balance the pressure, by increasing traffic lights and deploying more traffic police to better coordinate resources, efficiency has been greatly improved, but it is still not enough. The first step is to widen the roads, which means increasing bandwidth. However, reducing the number of roads from two to four will still cause congestion relying solely on traffic lights and a limited number of traffic police. But we cannot increase the number of traffic police indefinitely. This requires the roads to be more intelligent and help solve congestion.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan pointed out that a large amount of network management is in the CPU, which occupies container capacity, while the DPU intelligently provides space capacity for the server. A large amount of virtualized space can increase computing power requirements.</p><p><b>By 2020, DPUs had surpassed competitor Intel's Infrastructure Processors (IPUs) and SmartNICs in popularity, giving every company eyeing the data center business a share of the pie. DPUs have become a new track that major chip giants and startups are vying to develop. Domestic DPUs are now in a state of flourishing, with Sequoia Capital, Hillhouse Capital, CDH Investments, and SoftBank China all entering the market.</b></p><p>In April of this year, according to data from Tianyancha, domestic DPU chip supplier \"Yunbao Intelligent\" completed...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00700\">Tencent</a>Angel round financing jointly raised by investors, Sequoia Capital, Yaotu Capital, and others; At the end of May, Xinqiyuan completed a Pre-A round of financing worth hundreds of millions of yuan, with investors including SoftBank China and Pudong Science and Technology Innovation Group. On July 27, DPU chip developer Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan led by Huatai Innovation. On August 30, Nebula Intelligent, a DPU chip developer, announced the completion of a hundreds of millions of yuan angel round of financing, led by Hillhouse Capital, with CDH Investments VGC and Walden International China Fund participating in the follow-on investment. In early September, IDG Capital launched its \"Yunmai Xinlian\" angel round financing project.</p><p>\"DPUs may become the third computing chip after CPUs and GPUs, but structurally speaking, DPUs will be more heterogeneous and specialized,\" Yan Guihai said in an interview with Titanium Media App and other platforms. He added that the background to the emergence of DPUs is the demand for computing latency, data security, and resource virtualization brought about by the trend of end-edge-cloud integration caused by the data explosion in the intelligent era. The CPU is overwhelmed by these non-business loads and urgently needs an ideal object to share these computational loads.</p><p><b>Leopard Research Institute predicts that the Chinese DPU market is expected to reach $3.74 billion by 2025. The global DPU market is projected to reach US$13.57 billion by 2025.</b>The report also points out that data circulation is the largest application market for DPUs, with bare metal services having a strong demand for DPUs. DPUs are mainly used in edge computing scenarios in the telecommunications market, with a penetration rate of less than 5%. DPUs for the field of intelligent driving are still in the exploratory stage, and it is expected that DPUs will not be deployed in the field of intelligent driving until 2023.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7170c585dab44018726df81a32c63d62\" tg-width=\"808\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p>China DPU Market Size, Forecast 2020-2025, Source: Toubao Research Institute</p><p>Yan Guihai pointed out that CPU performance has increased from 30% per year 5-10 years ago to less than 3% per year three years ago. Network bandwidth is still growing by about 35% annually.</p><p>With<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/600918\">Zhongtai Securities</a>For example, the challenge the company faced at the time was that compliance checks on transaction reports were too slow, and it needed to improve transaction efficiency. Therefore, Zhongke Yushu, together with Zhongtai Securities and Shanghai Stock Exchange Technology Co., Ltd., jointly developed a high-speed risk control system solution to accelerate this process. Zhongke Yushu has successively developed a number of products and solutions, including ultra-low latency smart network cards and data computing acceleration cards, which are mainly aimed at high-bandwidth, low-latency, and data-intensive scenarios. The company has already achieved quarterly revenue in the tens of millions this year. Zhongke Yushu's next-generation DPU chip is expected to be designed by the end of 2021 and is expected to be able to process up to 200G of network bandwidth data.</p><p><b>However, although the DPU market is booming, the concept is relatively new, there are many unknowns, and the investment risks are also greater.</b></p><p>Lu Sheng, CEO of Xinqiyuan, pointed out that the barriers to entry in the DPU sub-sector are still relatively high. In addition to technical barriers, there are also market barriers, which require customers to continuously iterate, especially in conjunction with the continuous upgrading of open-source software to adapt to the rapidly changing software and hardware environment of customers. Therefore, before investing, VCs (venture capitalists) must first identify the sector and have sufficient patience. He emphasized that investors need to constantly observe the market and adjust their judgments, as no one can predict the future development prospects of DPUs.</p><p>Some media outlets believe that Nvidia's entry into the newly opened CPU and DPU battlefield may be beneficial for Chinese GPU manufacturers, especially since Nvidia is still investing a lot of energy in the $40 billion acquisition of British chip designer Arm. This may be an opportunity for startup GPU companies to catch up.</p><p>As Zhang Gaonan told Titanium Media App, \"Logically speaking, things with low barriers to entry are usually not very scarce. (In the chip and semiconductor industry) some things are very difficult and require long-term investment. Although they are high-risk, someone has to do them. This is a long-term investment that is truly beneficial to the country, and investment should actually be encouraged. Otherwise, if no one does these difficult things that require long-term investment, you will never get to the top.\"</p><p>Zhang Gaonan emphasized that while venture capital must pursue returns, he believes that, given the overall reasonable allocation of funds, investing in startups in the semiconductor sector not only has strong social significance but is also an important manifestation of a kind of long-term value investing.</p>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01e0bbbfdbdc6f8f2f7ce512582f7c3e","relate_stocks":{"NVDA":"英伟达"},"is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2166195813","content_text":"英伟达CEO黄仁勋（图片来源：Nvidia官网）\n“我即将展示的产品，融合了新的GPU加速计算能力，拥有Mellanox高性能网络，补足我们最后一块拼图的产品是——全球首款专为TB级数据中心加速计算而设计的CPU处理器，它的秘密代号是Grace。”\n这是2021年4月英伟达（NVIDIA）CEO黄仁勋在GTC峰会演讲中的一段话。然而，让人意想不到的是，直到8月12日英伟达自曝后人们才知道，这段不足100字、14秒的演讲内容竟然不是黄仁勋本人出镜，而是使用了合成的“数字替身”，即利用英伟达GPU处理器与Omniverse软件平台共同形成的“虚拟黄仁勋”形象。\n这一事件引发了人们对虚拟现实、元宇宙、AI换脸等技术和概念的激烈讨论，同时也让“英伟达”这家美国芯片霸主从半导体行业“出圈”，走入了大众视野。\n自1993年成立至今，在黄仁勋的带领下，英伟达成功创造且引领了GPU（图形处理器）芯片这一类别，产品覆盖整个PC设备GPU至服务器GPU市场。过去五年内，英伟达市值从310亿美元增长到5050亿美元，跻身成为全球第七大半导体供应商，是人工智能（AI）芯片领域炙手可热的明星企业。\n与此同时，在英伟达市值超过英特尔之后，国内半导体市场看到了GPU、AI芯片赛道更大的市场机会，景嘉微、天数智芯、登临科技、壁仞科技、燧原科技、寒武纪、沐曦集成电路等企业均在通用处理器这一赛道中集聚。\n近两年，国内半导体产业发生着转变。由于华为海思、中芯国际等企业受美方“实体清单”影响，以及全球芯片短缺引发的连锁反应，使得中国企业愈加难采购到美国半导体产品，对于“国产替代”需求愈加强烈。\n2020年6月29日，由于美国《出口管理条例》再升级，实体清单企业成员在不断调整，英特尔“临时性暂停”对浪潮集团的芯片供货。\n尽管随后在7月3日，浪潮方面宣布英特尔已恢复对其供货，但一家是全球最大的PC、云服务x86架构芯片供应商，另一方是中国最大的服务器厂商，两家公司之间的临时断供危机，为整个中国云计算、半导体行业提了一个醒：随着算力需求越来越强烈，中国需要大规模生产全面自主可控的国产GPU、服务器芯片产品。从而凸显了“国产替代”正成为中国半导体行业发展的最大驱动力。\n另外，作为全球芯片销量大国，中国却没有出现一家“英伟达”这样的芯片巨头，大市场并没有产生与之匹配的大公司。根据IC Insight的统计显示，2020年全球半导体市场规模为3957亿美元，其中，中国大陆市场规模是434亿美元，为全球最大市场，占全球比例达到36.24%。然而，总部位于中国大陆的半导体公司2020年总产值仅为83亿美元，仅占市场规模的5.9%。\n偌大的蛋糕，究竟谁能切下一角？半导体产业何时才能造出“中国英伟达”？\n错失黄金时代\nGPU图形处理器又被称为显示芯片、视觉处理器，最初于1999年由英伟达提出，是个人电脑、工作站、游戏主机以及移动设备（智能手机、平板电脑、VR设备）上专门运行绘图运算的微处理器。\n随着GPU的并行计算优势被逐步挖掘，GPU的应用领域从图形处理扩展到高性能计算，逐步成为Al计算最成熟、应用最广泛的通用型芯片。2020年6月，英伟达推出基于安培（Ampere）架构的A100 Tensor Core GPU，成为全球性能最强的AI芯片。\n以应用终端角度分类，GPU可分为PC端GPU、服务器GPU和移动端GPU，对应三种架构，即与专用电路板及组件组成的独立显卡，共享集成显卡，以及移动端GPU与其他芯片或模块一起封装成高集成度的SoC——应用于手机、汽车电子、AI在内的多个应用场景。\n自从AMD在2006年收购加拿大GPU厂商ATI之后，目前，在PC及服务器GPU领域，全球GPU市场呈现“美国芯片三巨头”——英特尔、AMD和英伟达垄断的局面。集成GPU市场英特尔优势明显，独立GPU市场英伟达和AMD两强割据。\n根据研究机构Jon Peddie Research的数据显示，2021年第一季度，全球PC端GPU市场中，英特尔（Intel）以68%市场份额位居榜首，AMD和英伟达分别为17%和14%，三家共计份额接近100%；全球独立GPU领域中，英伟达是数据中心GPU市场领导者，占据81%的市场份额，拥有领先优势，AMD则以占比19%位居第二。\n仅2019年，英伟达凭借V100系列等产品，占据了中国AI训练芯片市场90%份额，牢牢掌握着中国这一庞大的AI芯片销售市场。\n英伟达能持续作为“芯片霸主”地位的核心原因之一在于其“轻设计模式”。英伟达不做芯片制造和封装，交由台积电代工完成，自身享受7nm等先进制程工艺技术红利。根据财报显示，2016年至2021年期间，英伟达收入增长了233%，营业利润翻了一番，达到45亿美元。在截至今年5月的三个月内，销售额同比猛增84%，毛利率则达到了64%。\n事实上，中国很早就进入了GPU芯片设计领域，但结果并不如意。\n从20世纪70年代开始，中国开始引进半导体与集成电路技术和生产线。但结果却是陷入了“代代引进、代代落后”的恶性循环，加上“汉芯一号”假芯片事件给社会带来的不良影响，让中国的“自主处理器”遭受严重挫败，以及中国积极推动WTO全球化等因素，从而错失了全球半导体产业发展的黄金时期，下游企业只能“造不如买”。\n到2000年，以国家“18号文件”出台为标志，中国半导体才逐渐形成设计、制造、封装测试“三业分离”的产业组织形态，引进以“中芯国际”为代表的一批芯片制造（Foundry）企业在华建设、投产，技术水平也因此得到快速提升。\n目前，景嘉微、天数智芯、登临科技、壁仞科技、燧原科技、寒武纪、沐曦集成电路等企业均在通用处理器这一赛道中集聚。\n2014年，以军机图形显示控制模块起家的“景嘉微”（300474.SH）成功研制出军用GPU芯片JM5400，随后在2018年成功研发出28nm制程工艺的第二代GPU芯片JM7200。景嘉微从军用定制走向通用GPU，成为全球少数、国内唯一实现独立GPU商用量产的公司。\n除景嘉微外，2021年3月天数智芯发布了国内首颗7纳米工艺制造的GPGPU（通用图形处理器），即去掉了传统GPU 30%的图形渲染部分，只为处理人工智能（AI）应用而生；燧原科技则在今年6月发布了迄今中国最大的AI计算芯片“邃思2.0”AI芯片、基于邃思2.0的“云燧T20”训练加速卡和“云燧T21”训练OAM模组。\n但值得注意的是，景嘉微研发的JM7200芯片，性能只相当于2012年英伟达GTX 640水平，难以满足企业客户的应用需求。即便燧原科技的“邃思2.0”AI芯片，也仅和英伟达的A100达成平手，Benchmark测试的6个项目中有2项大幅超越了英伟达A100的性能表现。（详见钛媒体App前文：《燧原科技发布中国最大的AI计算芯片，加速推进三大业务方向落地》）\n\n背后的原因，主要由于中国半导体产业起步晚，芯片的技术门槛高、成本弹性大、产业高度集中，使得中国GPU芯片企业的整体研发投入、技术、人才都滞后于国外，从而在产品性能和技术上依然和芯片巨头有差距，下游企业依然难以脱离“美国芯片三巨头”的境地。\n以研发投入为例，2011年至2020年的十年间，景嘉微的研发投入费用总额为人民币6.27亿元，而英伟达2020年这一年的研发投入就达到39.24亿美元，约合人民币253.23亿元，十年间英伟达总计投入超过1200亿元人民币，两者相差超190倍。\n在人才方面，截至2021年上半年，英伟达员工人数高达18975人，景嘉微总员工人数为1174人，远低于AMD在上海研发中心的2000名员工。\n“AI芯片、GPU芯片市场比较特殊，跟传统的专用处理器不一样，技术十分复杂。它需要大量的数据，需要和特定的算法结合，才能够付诸市场运用。”新思科技中国副总经理谢仲辉在今年4月接受钛媒体App独家专访时表示，如果企业想把首颗AI芯片做扎实，通常需要两三年以上。\n在他看来，芯片半导体本身是一个投入大、周期长、见效慢的行业，技术完全国产化需要长期持续的资金、人才和技术积累，很难用“砸金钱见回报”这种互联网思维来处理。\n此外，结合CUDA技术的软硬件生态，也是国内芯片企业与英伟达形成较大差距的另一重要原因。\n2006年，英伟达就发布了并行计算平台CUDA，其中包含一系列开发工具，只有安装使用这个平台才能够进行复杂的并行计算，任何人只要拥有一台配有英伟达GPU的笔记本电脑，就可以利用CUDA可以进行科学、便捷编程计算，比如深度学习、AI算法等，开发相关软件。过去十多年，英伟达坚持不懈地推广CUDA，使更多政企级类型软件都基于该平台开发，将英伟达自研GPU硬件与CUDA软件相结合，高效实现应用落地。\n相比之下，目前国内却没有一个类似CUDA和英伟达硬件深度绑定的系列平台，技术壁垒差距十分明显。大部分国产GPU厂商均采取兼容CUDA开源框架的策略，如天数智芯、登临等，准备在此基础上培育自己的软件生态。\n“短期来看，国产GPU兼容CUDA更容易发展，毕竟写算子是人力密集型行业，用户迁移的话是需要100%迁移、整套代码都要在你的片上跑，如果代码量很小，需要的算子不那么多，难度就比较低。但是长期来看，还是要摆脱兼容思路，发展自有的核心技术。”芯片行业内人士表示，选择兼容主要是确保已有软件依然可用，未来会不断改进自家平台，使其更加匹配自己的芯片，从而吸引开发者迁移。\n但也有企业选择不兼容CUDA生态，比如同时做AI训练和推理芯片的燧原科技，今年全面升级了其“驭算TopsRider”软件平台以及全新的“云燧集群”，希望能拥有生态主导权。\n总结来看，对标英伟达的这些国内芯片企业依然处在发展的初级阶段，AI芯片技术的产业化、市场化能力较弱，没有产生实际的大规模使用，距离超越或取代“中国英伟达”仍然有很长的路要走。\n中科驭数CEO鄢贵海在接受钛媒体App采访时表示，虽然目前中国需求侧虽然还是全球最大的单一市场，增速也名列前茅，“需求侧”还是很强劲的，但在高端芯片方面无论是设计还是制造还有不小差距，“供给侧”不够强大。他指出，供给侧的优劣不仅取决于一家企业，而是全产业链能力。短期内要想打造出这样大体量和全面引领性的企业还是不太现实的。\n中科驭数成立于2018年，是一家专用计算架构研发商，孵化自中科院计算所的计算机体系结构国家重点实验室，如今公司估值已超10亿元。今年7月27日，中科驭数完成数亿元A轮融资，由华泰创新领投，灵均投资以及老股东国新思创跟投。\n高瓴合伙人、高瓴创投软件与硬科技负责人黄立明在接受钛媒体App的独家专访时表示，虽然GPU市场前景广阔，但中国创业公司很难直接做成“英伟达”。除了技术难度外，还要结合很强的应用来做——涉及到软件系统软件生态，这对创业公司来说要求是极高的。\n高瓴于2020年2月推出独立VC品牌高瓴创投，此后其对芯片半导体领域进行投资入局，其中包括半导体IP企业芯耀辉、EDA厂商芯华章，GPU平台壁仞科技、DPU公司星云智联，加上碳化硅方面的天科合达、光芯片领域的敏芯半导体、以及手机基带星思半导体等。\n黄立明强调，能在这个方向跑出来的公司，无论海外还是国内，高瓴判断最终都不会有很多。\n风口已至\n“我们现在先不纠结于怎么去取代英伟达，路都是一步一步走的。我觉得首先中国得有国产AI芯片、通用GPU、FPGA等底层算力。只要国内有市场需求，我们一定有很多机会。”华映资本主管合伙人章高男对钛媒体App表示，国内半导体产业风口已至，中国现在切入GPU市场是“天时、地利、人和”皆备，尤其半导体和下一代AI技术都是中国必须突围的领域。\n章高男举了一个例子，金山办公产品虽然逊于微软Office套件，但市场给出1100多亿元市值，背后重要原因之一是，中国必须得有国产office，同样道理也适用于国产的GPU市场。\n华映资本是国内最早布局移动互联网和文化产业的私募股权基金之一，近几年To B领域也成为华映资本重点关注的投资领域。目前华映资本在To B领域投资的30余个项目，投资总额超7亿元生态，由技术型投资人章高男负责搭建。在数据中台及底层算力相关领域，华映资本投资布局了壁仞科技、天云大数据，中科海微等项目。\n实际上，作为横跨视觉计算和AI计算的通用平台，GPU拥有巨大的市场空间。据东吴证券测算，预计到2027年，GPU领域国产替代的市场空间规模超过341亿美元。除了既有的游戏市场，在工业、医疗、军事航天等方向都有进一步的发挥空间。\n今年3月，原商汤科技总裁张文联合创立的通用智能芯片设计商“壁仞科技”完成了B轮融资。2019年9月成立以来，公司总融资额超47亿元人民币，投资方包括高瓴创投、华映资本、中国平安、招商局资本、BAI资本、国盛集团国改基金等，估值已超过100亿元，成长半导体行业势头最为迅猛的“独角兽”企业之一。\n除壁仞外，沐曦集成电路、摩尔线程等入局GPU领域的企业也都完成了融资。\n8月25日，GPU厂商沐曦集成电路宣布完成10亿元人民币的A轮融资，创始人陈维良、杨建等均来自美国芯片巨头AMD，投资方包括中国国有企业结构调整基金股份有限公司、中国互联网投资基金、经纬中国、和利资本、红杉中国、光速中国、国创中鼎、智慧互联产业基金、上海科创基金、联想创投等；而2020年成立的摩尔线程，宣称100天内就完成了两轮数十亿元融资，团队成员主要来自英伟达，投资方包括深创投、红杉资本中国基金、招商局创投、字节跳动、小马智行、五源资本等。\n不过，一个有趣的现象是，壁仞、沐曦、摩尔线程上述三家初创企业是名副其实的“PPT融资造芯”，融资时无一家完成首颗芯片的流片（流水线试生产）。\n为何市场投资人愿意对此敞开钱包？数位投资人在接受钛媒体App采访时表示，这些项目能够获得大量资本支持，原因都为投资早期，主要看的还是团队、赛道两部分：AI芯片赛道风口已至，高管团队也均出自“美国芯片三巨头”。\n“我觉得需要给这些企业机会和耐心，不可能500个人都在写PPT。制造芯片是一个5年到10年的事情，我们愿意去投的原因，并非是投机或者是忽悠。我认为，投半导体赛道本身风险就高，需要做好长周期的打算，需要有足够强的风险承担能力，这和投资互联网的模式创新完全不一样。”上述投资人对钛媒体App表示。\n但也有半导体行业投资人指出，上述投资项目本质上还是希望市值撑高，有更高的回报率，尤其“芯片热”环境下，风投机构需要不断在中早期寻找这些GPU、AI芯片企业标的，希望从中赌得一份更高的回报。\n此外，在这一波GPU创业浪潮中，创始团队师出“美国芯片三巨头”。例如，天数智芯首席科学家郑金山曾任AMD首席技术专家；沐曦的创始团队主要来自AMD，CEO陈维良曾在AMD担任图形研发高级总监，CTO杨建曾任AMD Fellow（院士）；壁仞科技最新上任的联席CEO李新荣，曾任AMD全球副总裁，壁仞科技高级副总裁陈文中也曾在AMD任职。\n对此，章高男表示，AMD是GPU领域排名前二的芯片巨头，关于GPU核心研发都在上海，而图形渲染的研发是在美国，企业可以去找AMD和英伟达两家公司高管去沟通，而最终选择的人肯定是半导体行业内的佼佼者。\n鄢贵海认为，在细分新兴赛道，凭借需求侧的应用“势能”，中国芯片企业集中优势兵力，立足服务本土企业，突出开发的敏捷性，是有机会在产品定义、方案迭代周期上超越“英伟达”这些芯片巨头。他预计，10年内会出现一批技术领先的国产GPU、DPU企业。\n“芯片产业五个环节：设计、制造、封测、材料、EDA五个环节中，与应用最相关的是设计，我们最大的优势又在于应用，所以非常有机会在“设计”这一环节取得突破，然后以点带面，逐步扩大胜利版图。所谓“弯道超车”还是追赶策略，切入面向未来的新赛道并且全力加速才更有可能占据新的战略制高点。希望能在10年内能出现一批技术领先、产品扎实而且富有战略意识的企业。”鄢贵海对钛媒体App表示。\n壁仞科技创始人张文表示，对芯片公司的能力要求从产品级提升到系统级和生态级。时间上不超过5年，中国在AI芯片设计领域赶上甚至领先国际水准。他强调，超越英伟达，需要重新定义一个产品，以及重新定义一个市场。\n百亿DPU芯片市场“爆火”\n在黄仁勋看来，负责在数据中心传输和处理数据的数据处理单元（DPU），正与CPU、GPU共同组成“未来计算的三大支柱”。当中国芯片企业发力GPU时，英伟达则把目光放在了CPU、DPU这两个新市场中。\n2020年9月，英伟达宣布拟以400亿美元，从日本软件集团处收购英国芯片设计商Arm，预计写下半导体行业最大的并购案。但这笔交易存有争议，目前还等待欧盟、英国、美国和中国等政府的批准。但2021年4月，英伟达则宣布进军数据中心CPU市场，发布Grace CPU处理器，也就是本文开头黄仁勋所讲的那一段话。（详见钛媒体App前文：《英国政府出手干预，英伟达400亿美元并购Arm交易生变》）\nCPU和GPU之外，英伟达还在布局DPU。2019年，英伟达宣布以69亿美元全现金的形式收购以色列网络芯片商迈络思（Mellanox），并最终将其拿下。而这笔英伟达有史以来规模最大的收购，黄仁勋最看重的就是迈络思在数据中心技术等方面独步天下的能力。2020年10月，英伟达首次推出了DPU — NVIDIA BlueField系列数据处理器。\n究其根本，一方面DPU更灵活安全，更重要的是，DPU可以解放CPU的算力，释放服务器的负载，并凭借低功耗显著降低综合成本，甚至还可以改善AI和机器学习应用的性能。\n据IDC统计，全球算力的需求每3.5个月就会翻一倍，远远超过了当前算力的增长速度。在此驱动下，全球计算、存储和网络基础设施也在发生根本转变：一些数据量过大的工作负载，过多占用CPU资源，与之协同作战的各种“X”PU芯片便应运而生，GPU、FPGA等芯片之外，DPU就是下一个“X”PU。\n业内人士就此做了一个形象的比喻，网络就像造马路，以前1G 10G时代马路已经不够宽了，车子越来越多，为了平衡压力，通过增加红绿灯和投入更多的交警来更高的协调资源，这样已经让原来的效率提高很多，但是仍然不够。必须第一扩大马路，这就是带宽增加，但是马路从2道变为4道，仅仅依靠红绿灯和有限的交警还是会堵塞，但是我们不能无限增加交警，这就需要马路能更加智能，帮助解决拥堵。\n章高男指出，大量的网络管理在CPU里面，占据了容器能力，而DPU则是将服务器智能提供空间能力，大量虚拟化空间可以提高算力需求。\n随着2020年，DPU的名声超出了竞争对手英特尔所推出的基础设施处理器(IPU)和SmartNIC，也让每个对数据中心业务虎视眈眈的企业都要在这个领域分一杯羹。DPU成为了各大芯片巨头、初创公司争相研发的新赛道，国产DPU现在几乎处在百花齐放的状态，红杉、高瓴创投、鼎晖、软银中国都开始入场。\n今年4月，天眼查数据显示，国产DPU芯片供应商“云豹智能”完成腾讯投资、红杉资本、耀途资本等联合的天使轮融资；5月末，芯启源完成数亿元Pre-A轮融资，投资方包括软银中国、浦东科创集团等；7月27日，DPU芯片研发商“中科驭数”完成华泰创新领投的数亿元A轮融资；8月30日，DPU芯片研发商星云智联宣布完成了数亿元天使轮融资，由高瓴创投领投，鼎晖VGC、华登国际中国基金参与跟投；9月初，IDG资本豪掷“云脉芯联”天使轮融资项目。\n“DPU有可能成为继CPU和GPU之后的第三颗算力芯片，但从结构上来看，DPU会更异构、也更专用。”鄢贵海在接受钛媒体App等采访时表示，DPU产生的背景是智能时代数据爆发导致的端-边-云一体化趋势带来的对计算延迟、数据安全、资源虚拟化需求。CPU对这些非业务性负载已不堪重负，迫切需要一个理想的对象来分担这些计算负载。\n头豹研究院则预测，中国DPU市场规模预计将在2025年达到37.4亿美元。全球DPU市场规模2025年预计将达到135.7亿美元。同时报告也指出，数据流通是DPU最大的应用市场，其中裸金属服务其对DPU存在刚需。DPU在电信市场的应用主要为边缘计算场景，渗透率不足5%。针对智能驾驶领域的DPU仍在探索阶段，预计在2023年DPU才有望布局在智能驾驶领域。\n中国DPU市场规模，2020-2025年预测，来源：头豹研究院\n鄢贵海指出，CPU的性能从5-10年前每年30%的增幅，到三年前大概只有每年不到3%的性能增幅。而网络带宽每年依旧还有35%左右的增长。\n以中泰证券为例，当时该公司遇到的挑战是，交易报单合规检查太慢，需要提高交易效率。于是，中科驭数与中泰证券、上交所技术有限责任公司联合研发了一套极速风控系统解决方案，来加速这一流程。中科驭数相继研发了超低时延智能网卡、数据计算加速卡等多套产品和解决方案，主要面向高带宽、低时延、数据密集型等场景。该公司今年已经实现千万级别的季度营收。中科驭数的下一代DPU芯片预计将于2021年底完成设计，预计可处理高达200G网络带宽数据。\n不过，DPU市场虽然火爆，但概念较新，未知更多，投资风险也会更大。\n芯启源CEO卢笙指出，目前DPU细分赛道的壁垒还是相对较高的，除了技术壁垒之外，还有市场的壁垒，需要客户不断迭代，尤其是配合开源软件不断升级去适配客户快速变化的软硬件环境。因此VC（风险投资）在投资之前，一定要先认可赛道，且有足够的耐心。他强调，投资人需要对市场进行不断地观察并调整判断，现在谁也无法预料未来DPU发展前景。\n也有媒体认为，当英伟达进入新开辟的CPU和DPU战场，对中国的GPU厂商或许是个利好，尤其英伟达依然花大量精力放在400亿美元收购英国芯片设计商Arm公司的并购交易上，这对新创GPU企业而言，可能是个追赶的时机。\n正如章高男对钛媒体App所说，“从逻辑上讲，门槛不高的事情通常稀缺性都不高。（芯片半导体赛道）有些事情是很难的，需要长时间投入，虽然是高风险，但总归得有人去做。这是真正对国家有利的长远投入，其实应该鼓励投资。否则的话，这些需要长时间投入的难事，谁都不去做，你永远上不了台阶。”\n章高男强调，虽然风险投资肯定要追求回报，但他认为，在整个资金分配合理情况下，拿出一部分投资半导体赛道的初创企业，不仅有极强的社会意义，更是某种长期价值投资的重要体现。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"NVDA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3616,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835181518,"gmtCreate":1629693720734,"gmtModify":1676530102079,"author":{"id":"3457141092286042","authorId":"3457141092286042","name":"价值投机投资","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be23b46444ac2a96142fb1b29256fc15","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3457141092286042","idStr":"3457141092286042"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"smart&nbsp;money","listText":"smart&nbsp;money","text":"smart

China cannot go from being a bottleneck for oil to a bottleneck for cobalt and nickel. Batteries used on a truly large scale cannot rely on rare metals.</strong></p><p>The development of electric vehicles has brought many safety problems: spontaneous combustion, explosion, and combustion. BYD launched its pioneering blade battery last March, paving the way for a healthier and more sustainable battery development.</p><p>Today's blade batteries have solved not only the energy density problem but also the safety issue, removing \"spontaneous combustion\" from the vocabulary of new energy vehicles.</p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210612114324403d17321fmbv59acs\"/>In 2008, everyone was most concerned about the driving range of new energy vehicles; now, everyone is most concerned about safety.<strong>Only by solving market pain points can blade batteries truly capture the market.</strong></p><p>The proportion of electric vehicles in China equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries has risen to 50% and continues to rise.<strong>Lithium iron phosphate batteries are safer, less bottlenecked by rare metals, and more competitively priced.</strong></p><p>In addition, Wang Chuanfu also stated that the development momentum of new energy vehicles this year is very good, and BYD is ushering in an unprecedented period of development and growth. BYD's achievements today are due to perseverance.</p><p>When BYD released a promotional video in 2008, many people couldn't understand it at the time. Is battery energy storage possible? Is electric vehicles possible?</p><p>An entrepreneur needs to have a good strategic vision, but more importantly, perseverance.<strong>BYD announced it was developing electric vehicles, causing its stock price to fall by 40%.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/000591\">solar energy</a>Despite losing a lot of money, BYD persevered.</strong>In 2008, electric vehicles could only achieve a range of 300 kilometers, but now they can reach 600 kilometers.</p><p>BYD, build your dream, this dream is a \"green\" dream. In the 260 years since the First Industrial Revolution, we have used up half of our fossil fuels. What will happen to humanity in another 250 years?</p><p>How to solve the energy problem? How to solve the sustainable development problem? This is the responsibility of entrepreneurs.</p><p>In 2008, BYD proposed to utilize inexhaustible energy sources—solar energy—and battery energy storage—iron batteries—to develop electric vehicles. China relies on imports for 72% of its oil, and 70% of the imported oil is transported to shore through the South China Sea. Of all oil, 70 is used in automobiles.

In the past five years,<b>Nvidia's market capitalization grew from $31 billion to $505 billion, making it the world's seventh-largest semiconductor supplier.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/5RE.SI\">smart</a>A hot star company in the (AI) chip field.</b></p><p>At the same time, Nvidia's market capitalization exceeded<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/INTC\">Intel</a>Subsequently, the domestic semiconductor market saw greater market opportunities in the GPU and AI chip sectors.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/300474\">Jing Jiawei</a>Tianshu Zhixin, Denglin Technology, Biren Technology, Suiyuan Technology<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688256\">Cambrian</a>Companies such as Muxi Integrated Circuits are all clustered in the general-purpose processor sector.</p><p>In the past two years, the domestic semiconductor industry has undergone transformation. Due to Huawei HiSilicon,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SMI\">SMIC</a>The impact of the US \"Entity List\" and the chain reaction triggered by the global chip shortage have made it increasingly difficult for Chinese companies to purchase US semiconductor products, and the demand for \"domestic substitution\" has become increasingly strong.</p><p>On June 29, 2020, due to the further upgrade of the U.S. Export Control Regulations and the continuous adjustment of the members of the Entity List, Intel \"temporarily suspended\" its chip supply to Inspur Group.</p><p>Although Inspur announced on July 3 that Intel had resumed supplying it, the temporary supply disruption crisis between one company, the world's largest supplier of x86 architecture chips for PCs and cloud services, and the other, China's largest server manufacturer, serves as a wake-up call for the entire Chinese cloud computing and semiconductor industry.<b>As the demand for computing power grows stronger, China needs to mass-produce domestically produced GPUs and server chips that are fully independent and controllable.</b>This highlights that \"domestic substitution\" is becoming the biggest driving force for the development of China's semiconductor industry.</p><p><b>Furthermore, as a major global chip seller, China has not produced a chip giant like Nvidia, and the large market has not produced a large company to match it.</b>According to statistics from IC Insight, the global semiconductor market size was US$395.7 billion in 2020, of which the Chinese mainland market size was US$43.4 billion, making it the world's largest market and accounting for 36.24% of the global market. However, the total output value of semiconductor companies headquartered in mainland China in 2020 was only US$8.3 billion, accounting for only 5.9% of the market size.</p><p><b>Who can get a piece of this huge pie? When will the semiconductor industry be able to create a \"Chinese Nvidia\"?</b></p><p><h2>Missing the Golden Age</h2>Graphics processing units (GPUs), also known as display chips or vision processors, were originally proposed by NVIDIA in 1999. They are microprocessors specifically designed to run graphics operations on personal computers, workstations, game consoles, and mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, VR devices).</p><p>As the parallel computing advantages of GPUs are gradually explored, the application fields of GPUs have expanded from graphics processing to high-performance computing, gradually becoming the most mature and widely used general-purpose chips in AI computing. In June 2020, NVIDIA launched the A100 Tensor Core GPU based on the Ampere architecture, becoming the world's most powerful AI chip.</p><p>From the perspective of application terminals, GPUs can be divided into PC GPUs, server GPUs, and mobile GPUs, corresponding to three architectures: independent graphics cards composed of dedicated circuit boards and components, shared integrated graphics cards, and mobile GPUs packaged with other chips or modules into highly integrated SoCs—which are used in multiple application scenarios including mobile phones, automotive electronics, and AI.</p><p><b>since<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a>Following the acquisition of Canadian GPU manufacturer ATI in 2006, the global GPU market is currently dominated by the \"US chip giants\"—Intel, AMD, and Nvidia—in the PC and server GPU field. Intel has a clear advantage in the integrated GPU market, while Nvidia and AMD dominate the standalone GPU market.</b></p><p>According to data from Research firm Jon Peddie Research, in the first quarter of 2021, Intel ranked first in the global PC GPU market with a 68% market share, followed by AMD and Nvidia with 17% and 14% respectively, with the three companies holding a combined share of nearly 100%. In the global discrete GPU market, Nvidia is the leader in the data center GPU market, holding an 81% market share, while AMD ranks second with a 19% share.</p><p>In 2019 alone, NVIDIA captured 90% of the Chinese AI training chip market with products such as the V100 series, firmly grasping the huge AI chip sales market in China.</p><p>One of the core reasons why Nvidia has been able to maintain its position as the \"chip leader\" is its \"lightweight design model\". NVIDIA does not manufacture or package chips; it entrusts...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSM\">TSMC</a>With the OEM manufacturing completed, the company enjoys the benefits of advanced process technologies such as 7nm. According to financial reports, Nvidia's revenue increased by 233% between 2016 and 2021, and its operating profit doubled to $4.5 billion. In the three months ending in May this year, sales surged 84% year-on-year, while gross profit margin reached 64%.</p><p><b>In fact, China entered the field of GPU chip design a long time ago, but the results were not satisfactory.</b></p><p><b>Starting in the 1970s, China began to introduce semiconductor and integrated circuit technology and production lines. However, the result was an a vicious circle of \"generation after generation of imports and generation after generation of backwardness\". Coupled with the negative impact of the \"Hanxin No. 1\" fake chip incident on society, which caused China's \"independent processors\" to suffer a serious setback, and China's active promotion of WTO globalization, the company missed the golden age of the global semiconductor industry development, and downstream companies could only \"buy instead of manufacturing\".</b></p><p>It wasn't until 2000, marked by the issuance of the national \"Document No. 18,\" that China's semiconductor industry gradually formed an industrial organizational structure characterized by the separation of design, manufacturing, packaging, and testing, and introduced...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688981\">SMIC</a>A number of chip manufacturing (Foundry) companies, represented by [company name], have been built and put into production in China, resulting in a rapid improvement in their technological level.</p><p>Currently, companies such as Jingjia Microelectronics, Tianshu Zhixin, Denglin Technology, Biren Technology, Suiyuan Technology, Cambricon, and Muxi Integrated Circuits are all clustered in the general-purpose processor track.</p><p>In 2014, Jingjia Microelectronics (300474.SH), which started with military aircraft graphics display control modules, successfully developed the military GPU chip JM5400. Subsequently, in 2018, it successfully developed the second-generation GPU chip JM7200 with a 28nm process. Jingjia Microelectronics has moved from military customization to general-purpose GPUs, becoming one of the few companies in the world and the only one in China to achieve commercial mass production of independent GPUs.</p><p>In addition to Jingjia Microelectronics, in March 2021, Tianshu Zhixin released China's first GPGPU (General Purpose Graphics Processor) manufactured using a 7-nanometer process, which removed 30% of the graphics rendering part of the traditional GPU and was created solely to handle artificial intelligence (AI) applications. In June of this year, Suiyuan Technology released the \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip, China's largest AI computing chip to date, the \"Yunsui T20\" training accelerator card based on Suisi 2.0, and the \"Yunsui T21\" training OAM module.</p><p>However, it is worth noting that the JM7200 chip developed by Jingjia Microelectronics only has performance equivalent to that of the 2012 NVIDIA GTX 640, which is difficult to meet the application needs of enterprise customers. Even Suiyuan Technology's \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip only managed to match NVIDIA's A100, with two of the six Benchmark tests significantly surpassing the NVIDIA A100's performance. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"Suiyuan Technology Releases China's Largest AI Computing Chip, Accelerating the Implementation of Three Major Business Directions\")</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15cb73d2787595547a9ed01926f4dfbe\" tg-width=\"570\" tg-height=\"1926\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p><b>The main reason behind this is that China's semiconductor industry started late, with high technological thresholds, high cost elasticity, and high industrial concentration. As a result, the overall R&D investment, technology, and talent of Chinese GPU chip companies lag behind those of foreign countries. As a result, they still lag behind chip giants in terms of product performance and technology, and downstream companies still find it difficult to escape the situation of the \"Big Three American chip companies\".</b></p><p>Taking R&D investment as an example, from 2011 to 2020, Jingjia Microelectronics' total R&D investment was RMB 627 million, while Nvidia's R&D investment in 2020 alone reached US$3.924 billion, equivalent to approximately RMB 25.323 billion. Over the ten years, Nvidia's total investment exceeded RMB 120 billion, a difference of more than 190 times.</p><p>In terms of talent, as of the first half of 2021, NVIDIA had as many as 18,975 employees, while Jingjia Microelectronics had a total of 1,174 employees, far fewer than AMD's 2,000 employees at its Shanghai R&D center.</p><p>\"The AI chip and GPU chip market is quite unique. Unlike traditional dedicated processors, the technology is very complex. It requires a large amount of data and needs to be combined with specific algorithms in order to be put into market use.\"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNPS\">Xinsi Technology</a>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App in April this year, Xie Zhonghui, deputy general manager of China, said that if a company wants to make its first AI chip solid, it usually takes more than two to three years.</p><p>In his view, the chip and semiconductor industry itself is an industry with large investment, long cycles, and slow returns. The complete localization of technology requires long-term and continuous capital, talent, and technological accumulation, which is difficult to handle with the Internet mindset of \"throwing money and seeing returns\".</p><p><b>In addition, the hardware and software ecosystem combined with CUDA technology is another important reason why domestic chip companies have formed a significant gap with Nvidia.</b></p><p>In 2006, NVIDIA released the parallel computing platform CUDA, which includes a series of development tools. Only by installing and using this platform can complex parallel computing be performed. Anyone with a laptop equipped with an NVIDIA GPU can use CUDA to perform scientific and convenient programming computations, such as deep learning and AI algorithms, and develop related software. For more than a decade, NVIDIA has been relentlessly promoting CUDA, enabling more government and enterprise-level software to be developed based on the platform, combining NVIDIA's self-developed GPU hardware with CUDA software to efficiently achieve application implementation.</p><p>In contrast, there is currently no series of platforms in China that are deeply integrated with CUDA and NVIDIA hardware, indicating a significant gap in technological barriers. Most domestic GPU manufacturers, such as Tianshu Zhixin and Denglin, have adopted a strategy of being compatible with the CUDA open-source framework, preparing to cultivate their own software ecosystem on this basis.</p><p>\"In the short term, CUDA-compatible domestic GPUs are easier to develop. After all, writing operators is a labor-intensive industry, and user migration requires 100% migration, with the entire code set running on your chip. If the amount of code is small, fewer operators are needed, making the difficulty relatively low. However, in the long run, we still need to move away from compatibility thinking and develop our own core technologies,\" said an industry insider. He added that choosing compatibility mainly ensures that existing software remains usable, and in the future, they will continuously improve their own platforms to better match their own chips, thereby attracting developers to migrate.</p><p>However, some companies choose not to be compatible with the CUDA ecosystem. For example, Suiyuan Technology, which makes AI training and inference chips at the same time, comprehensively upgraded its \"Yusuan TopsRider\" software platform and the new \"Yunsui Cluster\" this year, hoping to gain ecosystem dominance.</p><p><b>In summary, these domestic chip companies that compete with Nvidia are still in the early stages of development. Their industrialization and marketization capabilities for AI chip technology are relatively weak, and they have not yet generated actual large-scale use. They still have a long way to go before they can surpass or replace \"China's Nvidia\".</b></p><p>In an interview with Titanium Media App, Yan Guihai, CEO of Zhongke Yushu, said that although China's demand side is still the world's largest single market with one of the highest growth rates and the \"demand side\" is still very strong, there is still a considerable gap in both design and manufacturing of high-end chips, and the \"supply side\" is not strong enough. He pointed out that the quality of the supply side depends not only on a single company, but on the capabilities of the entire industry chain. It is unrealistic to build such a large-scale and comprehensively leading enterprise in the short term.</p><p>Founded in 2018, Zhongke Yushu is a dedicated computing architecture developer incubated by the State Key Laboratory of Computer Architecture at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The company's valuation has now exceeded 1 billion yuan. On July 27 this year, Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan, led by Huatai Innovation, with Lingjun Investment and existing shareholder Guoxin Sichuang participating.</p><p>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App, Huang Liming, a partner at Hillhouse Capital and head of software and hard technology at Hillhouse Capital, stated that although the GPU market has broad prospects, China...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V03.SI\">Startup company</a>It's difficult to directly turn it into \"Nvidia\". Besides the technical difficulty, it also needs to be combined with strong applications—involving a software system and software ecosystem, which is extremely demanding for startups.</p><p>In February 2020, Hillhouse Capital launched its independent VC brand, Hillhouse Capital. Since then, it has invested in the chip and semiconductor field, including semiconductor IP company Xin Yaohui, EDA manufacturer Xin Huazhang, GPU platform Biren Technology, DPU company Nebula Intelligent Connectivity, as well as Tianke Heda in the silicon carbide field, Minxin Semiconductor in the optical chip field, and Xingsi Semiconductor in the mobile phone baseband field.</p><p>Huang Liming emphasized that Hillhouse Capital believes that there will ultimately not be many companies that can emerge in this direction, whether overseas or domestically.</p><p><h2>The trend has arrived.</h2>“Let’s not dwell on how to replace Nvidia right now; we’ll take it one step at a time. I think China first needs to have domestically produced AI chips, general-purpose GPUs, FPGAs, and other underlying computing power. As long as there is market demand in China, we will definitely have many opportunities,” Zhang Gaonan, managing partner of China Reflection Capital, told Titanium Media App. He added that the domestic semiconductor industry has reached its peak, and China now has the right timing, geographical advantages, and human resources to enter the GPU market. In particular, semiconductors and next-generation AI technology are areas where China must break through.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan gave an example,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688111\">Kingsoft Office</a>Although the product is inferior to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>The Office suite, but the market has given it a market value of more than 110 billion yuan. One of the important reasons behind this is that China must have a domestically produced Office, and the same principle applies to the domestically produced GPU market.</p><p>China Reflection Capital is one of the earliest private equity funds in China To invest in the mobile internet and cultural industries. In recent years, the B2B sector has also become a key investment area for China Reflection Capital. Currently, China Reflection Capital has invested in more than 30 projects in the B2B sector, with a total investment exceeding 700 million yuan. The ecosystem is being built by technology investor Zhang Gaonan. In the fields of data middleware and underlying computing power, China Reflection Capital has invested in projects such as Biren Technology, Tianyun Big Data, and Zhongke Haiwei.</p><p>In fact, as a general-purpose platform that spans visual computing and AI computing, GPUs have a huge market potential.<b>according to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601555\">Dongwu Securities</a>It is estimated that by 2027, the market size for domestic substitution in the GPU field will exceed US$34.1 billion. In addition to the existing gaming market, there is room for further development in areas such as industry, healthcare, and military aerospace.</b></p><p>In March of this year, Biren Technology, a general-purpose intelligent chip designer co-founded by Zhang Wen, former president of SenseTime, completed its Series B financing. Since its establishment in September 2019, the company has raised a total of over RMB 4.7 billion, with investors including Hillhouse Capital, China Reflection Capital, and others.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601318\">Ping An</a>China Merchants Capital, BAI Capital, Guosheng Group State-owned Assets Reform Fund, and other companies have valuations exceeding 10 billion yuan, making them one of the fastest-growing \"unicorn\" companies in the semiconductor industry.</p><p><b>Besides Biren, companies such as Muxi Integrated Circuits and Moore Threads that have entered the GPU field have also completed financing.</b></p><p>On August 25, GPU manufacturer Muxi Integrated Circuits announced the completion of a RMB 1 billion Series A financing round. Founders Chen Weiliang and Yang Jian, among others, are from American chip giant AMD. Investors include China State-owned Enterprise Restructuring Fund Co., Ltd.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00810\">Internet Investment in China</a>Funds include Matrix Partners China, Heli Capital, Sequoia China, Lightspeed China, Guochuang Zhongding, Smart Internet Industry Fund, Shanghai Science and Technology Innovation Fund, and Lenovo Ventures. Moore Threads, founded in 2020, claimed to have completed two rounds of multi-billion yuan financing within 100 days. The team members were mainly from Nvidia, and investors included Shenzhen Capital Group and Sequoia Capital.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CHN\">China Fund</a>China Merchants Venture Capital, ByteDance, Pony.ai, Five Sources Capital, etc.</p><p><b>However, an interesting phenomenon is that the three startups mentioned above, Biren, Muxi, and Moore Thread, are veritable \"PPT financing chip manufacturing\". At the time of financing, none of them completed the tape-out (trial production on the assembly line) of their first chip.</b></p><p>Why are market investors willing to open their wallets to this? Several investors interviewed by Titanium Media App said that these projects can receive a lot of capital support because they are in the early stages of investment, mainly focusing on the team and the track: the AI chip track has reached its peak, and the senior management team is all from the \"Big Three American chip giants\".</p><p>“I think we need to give these companies opportunities and patience. It’s impossible for 500 people to write PowerPoint presentations. Manufacturing chips takes 5 to 10 years, and the reason we’re willing to invest is not for speculation or deception. I believe that investing in the semiconductor sector is inherently risky. You need to have a long-term plan and a strong risk tolerance, which is completely different from investing in innovative models in the internet industry,” the aforementioned investor told Titanium Media App.</p><p>However, some semiconductor industry investors pointed out that the aforementioned investment projects are essentially aimed at boosting market capitalization and achieving higher returns. Especially in the \"chip boom\" environment, venture capital institutions need to continuously seek out these GPU and AI chip companies in the early to mid-stages, hoping to gamble on a higher return.</p><p>In addition, in this wave of GPU startups, the founding team gave rise to the \"Big Three American chip giants\". For example, Zheng Jinshan, chief scientist of Tianshu Smart Chip, previously served as chief technology expert at AMD; Mu Xi's founding team mainly comes from AMD. CEO Chen Weiliang previously served as Senior Director of Graphics R&D at AMD, and CTO Yang Jian previously served as an AMD Fellow. Li Xinrong, the newly appointed co-CEO of Biren Technology, previously served as AMD's global vice president, and Chen Wenzhong, senior vice president of Biren Technology, also previously worked at AMD.</p><p>In response, Zhang Gaonan stated that AMD is one of the top two chip giants in the GPU field. The core research and development of GPUs is all in Shanghai, while the research and development of graphics rendering is in the United States. Companies can contact executives from AMD and Nvidia to communicate, and the person they ultimately choose will definitely be a leader in the semiconductor industry.</p><p>Yan Guihai believes that in emerging niche markets, leveraging the demand-side application \"momentum,\" Chinese chip companies are concentrating their superior resources, serving local enterprises, and emphasizing development agility, giving them the opportunity to surpass chip giants like Nvidia in product definition and solution iteration cycles.<b>He predicts that a number of technologically advanced domestic GPU and DPU companies will emerge within 10 years.</b></p><p>\"Among the five stages of the chip industry: design, manufacturing, packaging and testing, materials, and EDA, design is the most relevant to applications. Our greatest advantage lies in applications, so we have a great opportunity to achieve breakthroughs in the 'design' stage and then gradually expand our successful empire by using these points to drive overall development.\" The so-called \"leapfrogging\" is still a catch-up strategy. Only by entering a new track facing the future and accelerating at full speed can we more likely occupy a new strategic high ground. We hope that within 10 years, a number of technologically advanced, product-solid, and strategically minded companies will emerge. Yan Guihai told Titanium Media App.</p><p>Zhang Wen, founder of Biren Technology, said that the capability requirements for chip companies have been raised from the product level to the system and ecosystem levels. In less than five years, China will catch up with or even lead international standards in the field of AI chip design. He emphasized that surpassing Nvidia requires redefining a product and a market.</p><p><h2>The multi-billion dollar DPU chip market is booming.</h2>According to Jensen Huang, the data processing unit (DPU), which is responsible for transmitting and processing data in data centers, together with the CPU and GPU, forms the \"three pillars of future computing\". While Chinese chip companies are focusing on GPUs, Nvidia is setting its sights on the two new markets of CPUs and DPUs.</p><p>In September 2020, Nvidia announced its plan to acquire British chip designer Arm from Japan's Software Group for $40 billion, which is expected to be the largest merger and acquisition in the semiconductor industry. However, the deal is controversial and currently awaits approval from governments such as the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and China. However, in April 2021, Nvidia announced its entry into the data center CPU market, releasing the Grace CPU processor, which is what Jensen Huang mentioned at the beginning of this article. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"UK government intervenes, Nvidia's $40 billion acquisition of Arm changes\")</p><p>In addition to CPUs and GPUs, Nvidia is also developing DPUs. In 2019, Nvidia announced its acquisition of Israeli network chip manufacturer Mellanox for $6.9 billion in all-cash, and ultimately acquired it. In this largest acquisition in Nvidia's history, Jensen Huang valued Myloros's unrivaled capabilities in areas such as data center technology.<b>In October 2020, NVIDIA launched its first DPU — the NVIDIA BlueField series of data processors.</b></p><p>Ultimately, DPUs are more flexible and secure. More importantly, they can free up CPU computing power, relieve server load, significantly reduce overall costs through low power consumption, and even improve the performance of AI and machine learning applications.</p><p>According to IDC statistics, the global demand for computing power doubles every 3.5 months, far exceeding the current growth rate of computing power. Driven by this, global computing, storage and network infrastructure is also undergoing a fundamental transformation: various \"X\" PU chips have emerged to cooperate with some workloads with excessive data volumes and excessive CPU resources. In addition to chips such as GPUs and FPGAs, DPUs are the next \"X\" PU.</p><p>Industry insiders used a vivid analogy: the internet is like building a road. In the 1G and 10G era, roads were no longer wide enough, and there were more and more cars. In order to balance the pressure, by increasing traffic lights and deploying more traffic police to better coordinate resources, efficiency has been greatly improved, but it is still not enough. The first step is to widen the roads, which means increasing bandwidth. However, reducing the number of roads from two to four will still cause congestion relying solely on traffic lights and a limited number of traffic police. But we cannot increase the number of traffic police indefinitely. This requires the roads to be more intelligent and help solve congestion.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan pointed out that a large amount of network management is in the CPU, which occupies container capacity, while the DPU intelligently provides space capacity for the server. A large amount of virtualized space can increase computing power requirements.</p><p><b>By 2020, DPUs had surpassed competitor Intel's Infrastructure Processors (IPUs) and SmartNICs in popularity, giving every company eyeing the data center business a share of the pie. DPUs have become a new track that major chip giants and startups are vying to develop. Domestic DPUs are now in a state of flourishing, with Sequoia Capital, Hillhouse Capital, CDH Investments, and SoftBank China all entering the market.</b></p><p>In April of this year, according to data from Tianyancha, domestic DPU chip supplier \"Yunbao Intelligent\" completed...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00700\">Tencent</a>Angel round financing jointly raised by investors, Sequoia Capital, Yaotu Capital, and others; At the end of May, Xinqiyuan completed a Pre-A round of financing worth hundreds of millions of yuan, with investors including SoftBank China and Pudong Science and Technology Innovation Group. On July 27, DPU chip developer Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan led by Huatai Innovation. On August 30, Nebula Intelligent, a DPU chip developer, announced the completion of a hundreds of millions of yuan angel round of financing, led by Hillhouse Capital, with CDH Investments VGC and Walden International China Fund participating in the follow-on investment. In early September, IDG Capital launched its \"Yunmai Xinlian\" angel round financing project.</p><p>\"DPUs may become the third computing chip after CPUs and GPUs, but structurally speaking, DPUs will be more heterogeneous and specialized,\" Yan Guihai said in an interview with Titanium Media App and other platforms. He added that the background to the emergence of DPUs is the demand for computing latency, data security, and resource virtualization brought about by the trend of end-edge-cloud integration caused by the data explosion in the intelligent era. The CPU is overwhelmed by these non-business loads and urgently needs an ideal object to share these computational loads.</p><p><b>Leopard Research Institute predicts that the Chinese DPU market is expected to reach $3.74 billion by 2025. The global DPU market is projected to reach US$13.57 billion by 2025.</b>The report also points out that data circulation is the largest application market for DPUs, with bare metal services having a strong demand for DPUs. DPUs are mainly used in edge computing scenarios in the telecommunications market, with a penetration rate of less than 5%. DPUs for the field of intelligent driving are still in the exploratory stage, and it is expected that DPUs will not be deployed in the field of intelligent driving until 2023.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7170c585dab44018726df81a32c63d62\" tg-width=\"808\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p>China DPU Market Size, Forecast 2020-2025, Source: Toubao Research Institute</p><p>Yan Guihai pointed out that CPU performance has increased from 30% per year 5-10 years ago to less than 3% per year three years ago. Network bandwidth is still growing by about 35% annually.</p><p>With<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/600918\">Zhongtai Securities</a>For example, the challenge the company faced at the time was that compliance checks on transaction reports were too slow, and it needed to improve transaction efficiency. Therefore, Zhongke Yushu, together with Zhongtai Securities and Shanghai Stock Exchange Technology Co., Ltd., jointly developed a high-speed risk control system solution to accelerate this process. Zhongke Yushu has successively developed a number of products and solutions, including ultra-low latency smart network cards and data computing acceleration cards, which are mainly aimed at high-bandwidth, low-latency, and data-intensive scenarios. The company has already achieved quarterly revenue in the tens of millions this year. Zhongke Yushu's next-generation DPU chip is expected to be designed by the end of 2021 and is expected to be able to process up to 200G of network bandwidth data.</p><p><b>However, although the DPU market is booming, the concept is relatively new, there are many unknowns, and the investment risks are also greater.</b></p><p>Lu Sheng, CEO of Xinqiyuan, pointed out that the barriers to entry in the DPU sub-sector are still relatively high. In addition to technical barriers, there are also market barriers, which require customers to continuously iterate, especially in conjunction with the continuous upgrading of open-source software to adapt to the rapidly changing software and hardware environment of customers. Therefore, before investing, VCs (venture capitalists) must first identify the sector and have sufficient patience. He emphasized that investors need to constantly observe the market and adjust their judgments, as no one can predict the future development prospects of DPUs.</p><p>Some media outlets believe that Nvidia's entry into the newly opened CPU and DPU battlefield may be beneficial for Chinese GPU manufacturers, especially since Nvidia is still investing a lot of energy in the $40 billion acquisition of British chip designer Arm. This may be an opportunity for startup GPU companies to catch up.</p><p>As Zhang Gaonan told Titanium Media App, \"Logically speaking, things with low barriers to entry are usually not very scarce. (In the chip and semiconductor industry) some things are very difficult and require long-term investment. Although they are high-risk, someone has to do them. This is a long-term investment that is truly beneficial to the country, and investment should actually be encouraged. Otherwise, if no one does these difficult things that require long-term investment, you will never get to the top.\"</p><p>Zhang Gaonan emphasized that while venture capital must pursue returns, he believes that, given the overall reasonable allocation of funds, investing in startups in the semiconductor sector not only has strong social significance but is also an important manifestation of a kind of long-term value investing.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>When was \"Nvidia\" born in China?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhen was \"Nvidia\" born in China?\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1065587721\">\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/72948639b39fd795a430fcaa2772851c);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">TMTPost </p>\n<p class=\"h-time smaller\">2021-09-09 15:02</p>\n</div>\n</a>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01e0bbbfdbdc6f8f2f7ce512582f7c3e\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"750\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">NVIDIA</a>CEO Jensen Huang (Image source: Nvidia official website)</p><p>\"The product I am about to showcase incorporates new GPU-accelerated computing capabilities and features the Mellanox high-performance network.

In June of this year, Suiyuan Technology released the \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip, China's largest AI computing chip to date, the \"Yunsui T20\" training accelerator card based on Suisi 2.0, and the \"Yunsui T21\" training OAM module.</p><p>However, it is worth noting that the JM7200 chip developed by Jingjia Microelectronics only has performance equivalent to that of the 2012 NVIDIA GTX 640, which is difficult to meet the application needs of enterprise customers. Even Suiyuan Technology's \"Suisi 2.0\" AI chip only managed to match NVIDIA's A100, with two of the six Benchmark tests significantly surpassing the NVIDIA A100's performance. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"Suiyuan Technology Releases China's Largest AI Computing Chip, Accelerating the Implementation of Three Major Business Directions\")</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15cb73d2787595547a9ed01926f4dfbe\" tg-width=\"570\" tg-height=\"1926\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p><b>The main reason behind this is that China's semiconductor industry started late, with high technological thresholds, high cost elasticity, and high industrial concentration. As a result, the overall R&D investment, technology, and talent of Chinese GPU chip companies lag behind those of foreign countries. As a result, they still lag behind chip giants in terms of product performance and technology, and downstream companies still find it difficult to escape the situation of the \"Big Three American chip companies\".</b></p><p>Taking R&D investment as an example, from 2011 to 2020, Jingjia Microelectronics' total R&D investment was RMB 627 million, while Nvidia's R&D investment in 2020 alone reached US$3.924 billion, equivalent to approximately RMB 25.323 billion. Over the ten years, Nvidia's total investment exceeded RMB 120 billion, a difference of more than 190 times.</p><p>In terms of talent, as of the first half of 2021, NVIDIA had as many as 18,975 employees, while Jingjia Microelectronics had a total of 1,174 employees, far fewer than AMD's 2,000 employees at its Shanghai R&D center.</p><p>\"The AI chip and GPU chip market is quite unique. Unlike traditional dedicated processors, the technology is very complex. It requires a large amount of data and needs to be combined with specific algorithms in order to be put into market use.\"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNPS\">Xinsi Technology</a>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App in April this year, Xie Zhonghui, deputy general manager of China, said that if a company wants to make its first AI chip solid, it usually takes more than two to three years.</p><p>In his view, the chip and semiconductor industry itself is an industry with large investment, long cycles, and slow returns. The complete localization of technology requires long-term and continuous capital, talent, and technological accumulation, which is difficult to handle with the Internet mindset of \"throwing money and seeing returns\".</p><p><b>In addition, the hardware and software ecosystem combined with CUDA technology is another important reason why domestic chip companies have formed a significant gap with Nvidia.</b></p><p>In 2006, NVIDIA released the parallel computing platform CUDA, which includes a series of development tools. Only by installing and using this platform can complex parallel computing be performed. Anyone with a laptop equipped with an NVIDIA GPU can use CUDA to perform scientific and convenient programming computations, such as deep learning and AI algorithms, and develop related software. For more than a decade, NVIDIA has been relentlessly promoting CUDA, enabling more government and enterprise-level software to be developed based on the platform, combining NVIDIA's self-developed GPU hardware with CUDA software to efficiently achieve application implementation.</p><p>In contrast, there is currently no series of platforms in China that are deeply integrated with CUDA and NVIDIA hardware, indicating a significant gap in technological barriers. Most domestic GPU manufacturers, such as Tianshu Zhixin and Denglin, have adopted a strategy of being compatible with the CUDA open-source framework, preparing to cultivate their own software ecosystem on this basis.</p><p>\"In the short term, CUDA-compatible domestic GPUs are easier to develop. After all, writing operators is a labor-intensive industry, and user migration requires 100% migration, with the entire code set running on your chip. If the amount of code is small, fewer operators are needed, making the difficulty relatively low. However, in the long run, we still need to move away from compatibility thinking and develop our own core technologies,\" said an industry insider. He added that choosing compatibility mainly ensures that existing software remains usable, and in the future, they will continuously improve their own platforms to better match their own chips, thereby attracting developers to migrate.</p><p>However, some companies choose not to be compatible with the CUDA ecosystem. For example, Suiyuan Technology, which makes AI training and inference chips at the same time, comprehensively upgraded its \"Yusuan TopsRider\" software platform and the new \"Yunsui Cluster\" this year, hoping to gain ecosystem dominance.</p><p><b>In summary, these domestic chip companies that compete with Nvidia are still in the early stages of development. Their industrialization and marketization capabilities for AI chip technology are relatively weak, and they have not yet generated actual large-scale use. They still have a long way to go before they can surpass or replace \"China's Nvidia\".</b></p><p>In an interview with Titanium Media App, Yan Guihai, CEO of Zhongke Yushu, said that although China's demand side is still the world's largest single market with one of the highest growth rates and the \"demand side\" is still very strong, there is still a considerable gap in both design and manufacturing of high-end chips, and the \"supply side\" is not strong enough. He pointed out that the quality of the supply side depends not only on a single company, but on the capabilities of the entire industry chain. It is unrealistic to build such a large-scale and comprehensively leading enterprise in the short term.</p><p>Founded in 2018, Zhongke Yushu is a dedicated computing architecture developer incubated by the State Key Laboratory of Computer Architecture at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The company's valuation has now exceeded 1 billion yuan. On July 27 this year, Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan, led by Huatai Innovation, with Lingjun Investment and existing shareholder Guoxin Sichuang participating.</p><p>In an exclusive interview with Titanium Media App, Huang Liming, a partner at Hillhouse Capital and head of software and hard technology at Hillhouse Capital, stated that although the GPU market has broad prospects, China...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V03.SI\">Startup company</a>It's difficult to directly turn it into \"Nvidia\". Besides the technical difficulty, it also needs to be combined with strong applications—involving a software system and software ecosystem, which is extremely demanding for startups.</p><p>In February 2020, Hillhouse Capital launched its independent VC brand, Hillhouse Capital. Since then, it has invested in the chip and semiconductor field, including semiconductor IP company Xin Yaohui, EDA manufacturer Xin Huazhang, GPU platform Biren Technology, DPU company Nebula Intelligent Connectivity, as well as Tianke Heda in the silicon carbide field, Minxin Semiconductor in the optical chip field, and Xingsi Semiconductor in the mobile phone baseband field.</p><p>Huang Liming emphasized that Hillhouse Capital believes that there will ultimately not be many companies that can emerge in this direction, whether overseas or domestically.</p><p><h2>The trend has arrived.</h2>“Let’s not dwell on how to replace Nvidia right now; we’ll take it one step at a time. I think China first needs to have domestically produced AI chips, general-purpose GPUs, FPGAs, and other underlying computing power. As long as there is market demand in China, we will definitely have many opportunities,” Zhang Gaonan, managing partner of China Reflection Capital, told Titanium Media App. He added that the domestic semiconductor industry has reached its peak, and China now has the right timing, geographical advantages, and human resources to enter the GPU market. In particular, semiconductors and next-generation AI technology are areas where China must break through.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan gave an example,<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/688111\">Kingsoft Office</a>Although the product is inferior to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>The Office suite, but the market has given it a market value of more than 110 billion yuan. One of the important reasons behind this is that China must have a domestically produced Office, and the same principle applies to the domestically produced GPU market.</p><p>China Reflection Capital is one of the earliest private equity funds in China To invest in the mobile internet and cultural industries. In recent years, the B2B sector has also become a key investment area for China Reflection Capital. Currently, China Reflection Capital has invested in more than 30 projects in the B2B sector, with a total investment exceeding 700 million yuan. The ecosystem is being built by technology investor Zhang Gaonan. In the fields of data middleware and underlying computing power, China Reflection Capital has invested in projects such as Biren Technology, Tianyun Big Data, and Zhongke Haiwei.</p><p>In fact, as a general-purpose platform that spans visual computing and AI computing, GPUs have a huge market potential.<b>according to<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601555\">Dongwu Securities</a>It is estimated that by 2027, the market size for domestic substitution in the GPU field will exceed US$34.1 billion. In addition to the existing gaming market, there is room for further development in areas such as industry, healthcare, and military aerospace.</b></p><p>In March of this year, Biren Technology, a general-purpose intelligent chip designer co-founded by Zhang Wen, former president of SenseTime, completed its Series B financing. Since its establishment in September 2019, the company has raised a total of over RMB 4.7 billion, with investors including Hillhouse Capital, China Reflection Capital, and others.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/601318\">Ping An</a>China Merchants Capital, BAI Capital, Guosheng Group State-owned Assets Reform Fund, and other companies have valuations exceeding 10 billion yuan, making them one of the fastest-growing \"unicorn\" companies in the semiconductor industry.</p><p><b>Besides Biren, companies such as Muxi Integrated Circuits and Moore Threads that have entered the GPU field have also completed financing.</b></p><p>On August 25, GPU manufacturer Muxi Integrated Circuits announced the completion of a RMB 1 billion Series A financing round. Founders Chen Weiliang and Yang Jian, among others, are from American chip giant AMD. Investors include China State-owned Enterprise Restructuring Fund Co., Ltd.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00810\">Internet Investment in China</a>Funds include Matrix Partners China, Heli Capital, Sequoia China, Lightspeed China, Guochuang Zhongding, Smart Internet Industry Fund, Shanghai Science and Technology Innovation Fund, and Lenovo Ventures. Moore Threads, founded in 2020, claimed to have completed two rounds of multi-billion yuan financing within 100 days. The team members were mainly from Nvidia, and investors included Shenzhen Capital Group and Sequoia Capital.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CHN\">China Fund</a>China Merchants Venture Capital, ByteDance, Pony.ai, Five Sources Capital, etc.</p><p><b>However, an interesting phenomenon is that the three startups mentioned above, Biren, Muxi, and Moore Thread, are veritable \"PPT financing chip manufacturing\". At the time of financing, none of them completed the tape-out (trial production on the assembly line) of their first chip.</b></p><p>Why are market investors willing to open their wallets to this? Several investors interviewed by Titanium Media App said that these projects can receive a lot of capital support because they are in the early stages of investment, mainly focusing on the team and the track: the AI chip track has reached its peak, and the senior management team is all from the \"Big Three American chip giants\".</p><p>“I think we need to give these companies opportunities and patience. It’s impossible for 500 people to write PowerPoint presentations. Manufacturing chips takes 5 to 10 years, and the reason we’re willing to invest is not for speculation or deception. I believe that investing in the semiconductor sector is inherently risky. You need to have a long-term plan and a strong risk tolerance, which is completely different from investing in innovative models in the internet industry,” the aforementioned investor told Titanium Media App.</p><p>However, some semiconductor industry investors pointed out that the aforementioned investment projects are essentially aimed at boosting market capitalization and achieving higher returns. Especially in the \"chip boom\" environment, venture capital institutions need to continuously seek out these GPU and AI chip companies in the early to mid-stages, hoping to gamble on a higher return.</p><p>In addition, in this wave of GPU startups, the founding team gave rise to the \"Big Three American chip giants\". For example, Zheng Jinshan, chief scientist of Tianshu Smart Chip, previously served as chief technology expert at AMD; Mu Xi's founding team mainly comes from AMD. CEO Chen Weiliang previously served as Senior Director of Graphics R&D at AMD, and CTO Yang Jian previously served as an AMD Fellow. Li Xinrong, the newly appointed co-CEO of Biren Technology, previously served as AMD's global vice president, and Chen Wenzhong, senior vice president of Biren Technology, also previously worked at AMD.</p><p>In response, Zhang Gaonan stated that AMD is one of the top two chip giants in the GPU field. The core research and development of GPUs is all in Shanghai, while the research and development of graphics rendering is in the United States. Companies can contact executives from AMD and Nvidia to communicate, and the person they ultimately choose will definitely be a leader in the semiconductor industry.</p><p>Yan Guihai believes that in emerging niche markets, leveraging the demand-side application \"momentum,\" Chinese chip companies are concentrating their superior resources, serving local enterprises, and emphasizing development agility, giving them the opportunity to surpass chip giants like Nvidia in product definition and solution iteration cycles.<b>He predicts that a number of technologically advanced domestic GPU and DPU companies will emerge within 10 years.</b></p><p>\"Among the five stages of the chip industry: design, manufacturing, packaging and testing, materials, and EDA, design is the most relevant to applications. Our greatest advantage lies in applications, so we have a great opportunity to achieve breakthroughs in the 'design' stage and then gradually expand our successful empire by using these points to drive overall development.\" The so-called \"leapfrogging\" is still a catch-up strategy. Only by entering a new track facing the future and accelerating at full speed can we more likely occupy a new strategic high ground. We hope that within 10 years, a number of technologically advanced, product-solid, and strategically minded companies will emerge. Yan Guihai told Titanium Media App.</p><p>Zhang Wen, founder of Biren Technology, said that the capability requirements for chip companies have been raised from the product level to the system and ecosystem levels. In less than five years, China will catch up with or even lead international standards in the field of AI chip design. He emphasized that surpassing Nvidia requires redefining a product and a market.</p><p><h2>The multi-billion dollar DPU chip market is booming.</h2>According to Jensen Huang, the data processing unit (DPU), which is responsible for transmitting and processing data in data centers, together with the CPU and GPU, forms the \"three pillars of future computing\". While Chinese chip companies are focusing on GPUs, Nvidia is setting its sights on the two new markets of CPUs and DPUs.</p><p>In September 2020, Nvidia announced its plan to acquire British chip designer Arm from Japan's Software Group for $40 billion, which is expected to be the largest merger and acquisition in the semiconductor industry. However, the deal is controversial and currently awaits approval from governments such as the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and China. However, in April 2021, Nvidia announced its entry into the data center CPU market, releasing the Grace CPU processor, which is what Jensen Huang mentioned at the beginning of this article. (See the previous article on Titanium Media App: \"UK government intervenes, Nvidia's $40 billion acquisition of Arm changes\")</p><p>In addition to CPUs and GPUs, Nvidia is also developing DPUs. In 2019, Nvidia announced its acquisition of Israeli network chip manufacturer Mellanox for $6.9 billion in all-cash, and ultimately acquired it. In this largest acquisition in Nvidia's history, Jensen Huang valued Myloros's unrivaled capabilities in areas such as data center technology.<b>In October 2020, NVIDIA launched its first DPU — the NVIDIA BlueField series of data processors.</b></p><p>Ultimately, DPUs are more flexible and secure. More importantly, they can free up CPU computing power, relieve server load, significantly reduce overall costs through low power consumption, and even improve the performance of AI and machine learning applications.</p><p>According to IDC statistics, the global demand for computing power doubles every 3.5 months, far exceeding the current growth rate of computing power. Driven by this, global computing, storage and network infrastructure is also undergoing a fundamental transformation: various \"X\" PU chips have emerged to cooperate with some workloads with excessive data volumes and excessive CPU resources. In addition to chips such as GPUs and FPGAs, DPUs are the next \"X\" PU.</p><p>Industry insiders used a vivid analogy: the internet is like building a road. In the 1G and 10G era, roads were no longer wide enough, and there were more and more cars. In order to balance the pressure, by increasing traffic lights and deploying more traffic police to better coordinate resources, efficiency has been greatly improved, but it is still not enough. The first step is to widen the roads, which means increasing bandwidth. However, reducing the number of roads from two to four will still cause congestion relying solely on traffic lights and a limited number of traffic police. But we cannot increase the number of traffic police indefinitely. This requires the roads to be more intelligent and help solve congestion.</p><p>Zhang Gaonan pointed out that a large amount of network management is in the CPU, which occupies container capacity, while the DPU intelligently provides space capacity for the server. A large amount of virtualized space can increase computing power requirements.</p><p><b>By 2020, DPUs had surpassed competitor Intel's Infrastructure Processors (IPUs) and SmartNICs in popularity, giving every company eyeing the data center business a share of the pie. DPUs have become a new track that major chip giants and startups are vying to develop. Domestic DPUs are now in a state of flourishing, with Sequoia Capital, Hillhouse Capital, CDH Investments, and SoftBank China all entering the market.</b></p><p>In April of this year, according to data from Tianyancha, domestic DPU chip supplier \"Yunbao Intelligent\" completed...<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00700\">Tencent</a>Angel round financing jointly raised by investors, Sequoia Capital, Yaotu Capital, and others; At the end of May, Xinqiyuan completed a Pre-A round of financing worth hundreds of millions of yuan, with investors including SoftBank China and Pudong Science and Technology Innovation Group. On July 27, DPU chip developer Zhongke Yushu completed a Series A financing round of hundreds of millions of yuan led by Huatai Innovation. On August 30, Nebula Intelligent, a DPU chip developer, announced the completion of a hundreds of millions of yuan angel round of financing, led by Hillhouse Capital, with CDH Investments VGC and Walden International China Fund participating in the follow-on investment. In early September, IDG Capital launched its \"Yunmai Xinlian\" angel round financing project.</p><p>\"DPUs may become the third computing chip after CPUs and GPUs, but structurally speaking, DPUs will be more heterogeneous and specialized,\" Yan Guihai said in an interview with Titanium Media App and other platforms. He added that the background to the emergence of DPUs is the demand for computing latency, data security, and resource virtualization brought about by the trend of end-edge-cloud integration caused by the data explosion in the intelligent era. The CPU is overwhelmed by these non-business loads and urgently needs an ideal object to share these computational loads.</p><p><b>Leopard Research Institute predicts that the Chinese DPU market is expected to reach $3.74 billion by 2025. The global DPU market is projected to reach US$13.57 billion by 2025.</b>The report also points out that data circulation is the largest application market for DPUs, with bare metal services having a strong demand for DPUs. DPUs are mainly used in edge computing scenarios in the telecommunications market, with a penetration rate of less than 5%. DPUs for the field of intelligent driving are still in the exploratory stage, and it is expected that DPUs will not be deployed in the field of intelligent driving until 2023.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7170c585dab44018726df81a32c63d62\" tg-width=\"808\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p><p>China DPU Market Size, Forecast 2020-2025, Source: Toubao Research Institute</p><p>Yan Guihai pointed out that CPU performance has increased from 30% per year 5-10 years ago to less than 3% per year three years ago. Network bandwidth is still growing by about 35% annually.</p><p>With<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/600918\">Zhongtai Securities</a>For example, the challenge the company faced at the time was that compliance checks on transaction reports were too slow, and it needed to improve transaction efficiency. Therefore, Zhongke Yushu, together with Zhongtai Securities and Shanghai Stock Exchange Technology Co., Ltd., jointly developed a high-speed risk control system solution to accelerate this process. Zhongke Yushu has successively developed a number of products and solutions, including ultra-low latency smart network cards and data computing acceleration cards, which are mainly aimed at high-bandwidth, low-latency, and data-intensive scenarios. The company has already achieved quarterly revenue in the tens of millions this year. Zhongke Yushu's next-generation DPU chip is expected to be designed by the end of 2021 and is expected to be able to process up to 200G of network bandwidth data.</p><p><b>However, although the DPU market is booming, the concept is relatively new, there are many unknowns, and the investment risks are also greater.</b></p><p>Lu Sheng, CEO of Xinqiyuan, pointed out that the barriers to entry in the DPU sub-sector are still relatively high. In addition to technical barriers, there are also market barriers, which require customers to continuously iterate, especially in conjunction with the continuous upgrading of open-source software to adapt to the rapidly changing software and hardware environment of customers. Therefore, before investing, VCs (venture capitalists) must first identify the sector and have sufficient patience. He emphasized that investors need to constantly observe the market and adjust their judgments, as no one can predict the future development prospects of DPUs.</p><p>Some media outlets believe that Nvidia's entry into the newly opened CPU and DPU battlefield may be beneficial for Chinese GPU manufacturers, especially since Nvidia is still investing a lot of energy in the $40 billion acquisition of British chip designer Arm. This may be an opportunity for startup GPU companies to catch up.</p><p>As Zhang Gaonan told Titanium Media App, \"Logically speaking, things with low barriers to entry are usually not very scarce. (In the chip and semiconductor industry) some things are very difficult and require long-term investment. Although they are high-risk, someone has to do them. This is a long-term investment that is truly beneficial to the country, and investment should actually be encouraged. Otherwise, if no one does these difficult things that require long-term investment, you will never get to the top.\"</p><p>Zhang Gaonan emphasized that while venture capital must pursue returns, he believes that, given the overall reasonable allocation of funds, investing in startups in the semiconductor sector not only has strong social significance but is also an important manifestation of a kind of long-term value investing.</p>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01e0bbbfdbdc6f8f2f7ce512582f7c3e","relate_stocks":{"NVDA":"英伟达"},"is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2166195813","content_text":"英伟达CEO黄仁勋（图片来源：Nvidia官网）\n“我即将展示的产品，融合了新的GPU加速计算能力，拥有Mellanox高性能网络，补足我们最后一块拼图的产品是——全球首款专为TB级数据中心加速计算而设计的CPU处理器，它的秘密代号是Grace。”\n这是2021年4月英伟达（NVIDIA）CEO黄仁勋在GTC峰会演讲中的一段话。然而，让人意想不到的是，直到8月12日英伟达自曝后人们才知道，这段不足100字、14秒的演讲内容竟然不是黄仁勋本人出镜，而是使用了合成的“数字替身”，即利用英伟达GPU处理器与Omniverse软件平台共同形成的“虚拟黄仁勋”形象。\n这一事件引发了人们对虚拟现实、元宇宙、AI换脸等技术和概念的激烈讨论，同时也让“英伟达”这家美国芯片霸主从半导体行业“出圈”，走入了大众视野。\n自1993年成立至今，在黄仁勋的带领下，英伟达成功创造且引领了GPU（图形处理器）芯片这一类别，产品覆盖整个PC设备GPU至服务器GPU市场。过去五年内，英伟达市值从310亿美元增长到5050亿美元，跻身成为全球第七大半导体供应商，是人工智能（AI）芯片领域炙手可热的明星企业。\n与此同时，在英伟达市值超过英特尔之后，国内半导体市场看到了GPU、AI芯片赛道更大的市场机会，景嘉微、天数智芯、登临科技、壁仞科技、燧原科技、寒武纪、沐曦集成电路等企业均在通用处理器这一赛道中集聚。\n近两年，国内半导体产业发生着转变。由于华为海思、中芯国际等企业受美方“实体清单”影响，以及全球芯片短缺引发的连锁反应，使得中国企业愈加难采购到美国半导体产品，对于“国产替代”需求愈加强烈。\n2020年6月29日，由于美国《出口管理条例》再升级，实体清单企业成员在不断调整，英特尔“临时性暂停”对浪潮集团的芯片供货。\n尽管随后在7月3日，浪潮方面宣布英特尔已恢复对其供货，但一家是全球最大的PC、云服务x86架构芯片供应商，另一方是中国最大的服务器厂商，两家公司之间的临时断供危机，为整个中国云计算、半导体行业提了一个醒：随着算力需求越来越强烈，中国需要大规模生产全面自主可控的国产GPU、服务器芯片产品。从而凸显了“国产替代”正成为中国半导体行业发展的最大驱动力。\n另外，作为全球芯片销量大国，中国却没有出现一家“英伟达”这样的芯片巨头，大市场并没有产生与之匹配的大公司。根据IC Insight的统计显示，2020年全球半导体市场规模为3957亿美元，其中，中国大陆市场规模是434亿美元，为全球最大市场，占全球比例达到36.24%。然而，总部位于中国大陆的半导体公司2020年总产值仅为83亿美元，仅占市场规模的5.9%。\n偌大的蛋糕，究竟谁能切下一角？半导体产业何时才能造出“中国英伟达”？\n错失黄金时代\nGPU图形处理器又被称为显示芯片、视觉处理器，最初于1999年由英伟达提出，是个人电脑、工作站、游戏主机以及移动设备（智能手机、平板电脑、VR设备）上专门运行绘图运算的微处理器。\n随着GPU的并行计算优势被逐步挖掘，GPU的应用领域从图形处理扩展到高性能计算，逐步成为Al计算最成熟、应用最广泛的通用型芯片。2020年6月，英伟达推出基于安培（Ampere）架构的A100 Tensor Core GPU，成为全球性能最强的AI芯片。\n以应用终端角度分类，GPU可分为PC端GPU、服务器GPU和移动端GPU，对应三种架构，即与专用电路板及组件组成的独立显卡，共享集成显卡，以及移动端GPU与其他芯片或模块一起封装成高集成度的SoC——应用于手机、汽车电子、AI在内的多个应用场景。\n自从AMD在2006年收购加拿大GPU厂商ATI之后，目前，在PC及服务器GPU领域，全球GPU市场呈现“美国芯片三巨头”——英特尔、AMD和英伟达垄断的局面。集成GPU市场英特尔优势明显，独立GPU市场英伟达和AMD两强割据。\n根据研究机构Jon Peddie Research的数据显示，2021年第一季度，全球PC端GPU市场中，英特尔（Intel）以68%市场份额位居榜首，AMD和英伟达分别为17%和14%，三家共计份额接近100%；全球独立GPU领域中，英伟达是数据中心GPU市场领导者，占据81%的市场份额，拥有领先优势，AMD则以占比19%位居第二。\n仅2019年，英伟达凭借V100系列等产品，占据了中国AI训练芯片市场90%份额，牢牢掌握着中国这一庞大的AI芯片销售市场。\n英伟达能持续作为“芯片霸主”地位的核心原因之一在于其“轻设计模式”。英伟达不做芯片制造和封装，交由台积电代工完成，自身享受7nm等先进制程工艺技术红利。根据财报显示，2016年至2021年期间，英伟达收入增长了233%，营业利润翻了一番，达到45亿美元。在截至今年5月的三个月内，销售额同比猛增84%，毛利率则达到了64%。\n事实上，中国很早就进入了GPU芯片设计领域，但结果并不如意。\n从20世纪70年代开始，中国开始引进半导体与集成电路技术和生产线。但结果却是陷入了“代代引进、代代落后”的恶性循环，加上“汉芯一号”假芯片事件给社会带来的不良影响，让中国的“自主处理器”遭受严重挫败，以及中国积极推动WTO全球化等因素，从而错失了全球半导体产业发展的黄金时期，下游企业只能“造不如买”。\n到2000年，以国家“18号文件”出台为标志，中国半导体才逐渐形成设计、制造、封装测试“三业分离”的产业组织形态，引进以“中芯国际”为代表的一批芯片制造（Foundry）企业在华建设、投产，技术水平也因此得到快速提升。\n目前，景嘉微、天数智芯、登临科技、壁仞科技、燧原科技、寒武纪、沐曦集成电路等企业均在通用处理器这一赛道中集聚。\n2014年，以军机图形显示控制模块起家的“景嘉微”（300474.SH）成功研制出军用GPU芯片JM5400，随后在2018年成功研发出28nm制程工艺的第二代GPU芯片JM7200。景嘉微从军用定制走向通用GPU，成为全球少数、国内唯一实现独立GPU商用量产的公司。\n除景嘉微外，2021年3月天数智芯发布了国内首颗7纳米工艺制造的GPGPU（通用图形处理器），即去掉了传统GPU 30%的图形渲染部分，只为处理人工智能（AI）应用而生；燧原科技则在今年6月发布了迄今中国最大的AI计算芯片“邃思2.0”AI芯片、基于邃思2.0的“云燧T20”训练加速卡和“云燧T21”训练OAM模组。\n但值得注意的是，景嘉微研发的JM7200芯片，性能只相当于2012年英伟达GTX 640水平，难以满足企业客户的应用需求。即便燧原科技的“邃思2.0”AI芯片，也仅和英伟达的A100达成平手，Benchmark测试的6个项目中有2项大幅超越了英伟达A100的性能表现。（详见钛媒体App前文：《燧原科技发布中国最大的AI计算芯片，加速推进三大业务方向落地》）\n\n背后的原因，主要由于中国半导体产业起步晚，芯片的技术门槛高、成本弹性大、产业高度集中，使得中国GPU芯片企业的整体研发投入、技术、人才都滞后于国外，从而在产品性能和技术上依然和芯片巨头有差距，下游企业依然难以脱离“美国芯片三巨头”的境地。\n以研发投入为例，2011年至2020年的十年间，景嘉微的研发投入费用总额为人民币6.27亿元，而英伟达2020年这一年的研发投入就达到39.24亿美元，约合人民币253.23亿元，十年间英伟达总计投入超过1200亿元人民币，两者相差超190倍。\n在人才方面，截至2021年上半年，英伟达员工人数高达18975人，景嘉微总员工人数为1174人，远低于AMD在上海研发中心的2000名员工。\n“AI芯片、GPU芯片市场比较特殊，跟传统的专用处理器不一样，技术十分复杂。它需要大量的数据，需要和特定的算法结合，才能够付诸市场运用。”新思科技中国副总经理谢仲辉在今年4月接受钛媒体App独家专访时表示，如果企业想把首颗AI芯片做扎实，通常需要两三年以上。\n在他看来，芯片半导体本身是一个投入大、周期长、见效慢的行业，技术完全国产化需要长期持续的资金、人才和技术积累，很难用“砸金钱见回报”这种互联网思维来处理。\n此外，结合CUDA技术的软硬件生态，也是国内芯片企业与英伟达形成较大差距的另一重要原因。\n2006年，英伟达就发布了并行计算平台CUDA，其中包含一系列开发工具，只有安装使用这个平台才能够进行复杂的并行计算，任何人只要拥有一台配有英伟达GPU的笔记本电脑，就可以利用CUDA可以进行科学、便捷编程计算，比如深度学习、AI算法等，开发相关软件。过去十多年，英伟达坚持不懈地推广CUDA，使更多政企级类型软件都基于该平台开发，将英伟达自研GPU硬件与CUDA软件相结合，高效实现应用落地。\n相比之下，目前国内却没有一个类似CUDA和英伟达硬件深度绑定的系列平台，技术壁垒差距十分明显。大部分国产GPU厂商均采取兼容CUDA开源框架的策略，如天数智芯、登临等，准备在此基础上培育自己的软件生态。\n“短期来看，国产GPU兼容CUDA更容易发展，毕竟写算子是人力密集型行业，用户迁移的话是需要100%迁移、整套代码都要在你的片上跑，如果代码量很小，需要的算子不那么多，难度就比较低。但是长期来看，还是要摆脱兼容思路，发展自有的核心技术。”芯片行业内人士表示，选择兼容主要是确保已有软件依然可用，未来会不断改进自家平台，使其更加匹配自己的芯片，从而吸引开发者迁移。\n但也有企业选择不兼容CUDA生态，比如同时做AI训练和推理芯片的燧原科技，今年全面升级了其“驭算TopsRider”软件平台以及全新的“云燧集群”，希望能拥有生态主导权。\n总结来看，对标英伟达的这些国内芯片企业依然处在发展的初级阶段，AI芯片技术的产业化、市场化能力较弱，没有产生实际的大规模使用，距离超越或取代“中国英伟达”仍然有很长的路要走。\n中科驭数CEO鄢贵海在接受钛媒体App采访时表示，虽然目前中国需求侧虽然还是全球最大的单一市场，增速也名列前茅，“需求侧”还是很强劲的，但在高端芯片方面无论是设计还是制造还有不小差距，“供给侧”不够强大。他指出，供给侧的优劣不仅取决于一家企业，而是全产业链能力。短期内要想打造出这样大体量和全面引领性的企业还是不太现实的。\n中科驭数成立于2018年，是一家专用计算架构研发商，孵化自中科院计算所的计算机体系结构国家重点实验室，如今公司估值已超10亿元。今年7月27日，中科驭数完成数亿元A轮融资，由华泰创新领投，灵均投资以及老股东国新思创跟投。\n高瓴合伙人、高瓴创投软件与硬科技负责人黄立明在接受钛媒体App的独家专访时表示，虽然GPU市场前景广阔，但中国创业公司很难直接做成“英伟达”。除了技术难度外，还要结合很强的应用来做——涉及到软件系统软件生态，这对创业公司来说要求是极高的。\n高瓴于2020年2月推出独立VC品牌高瓴创投，此后其对芯片半导体领域进行投资入局，其中包括半导体IP企业芯耀辉、EDA厂商芯华章，GPU平台壁仞科技、DPU公司星云智联，加上碳化硅方面的天科合达、光芯片领域的敏芯半导体、以及手机基带星思半导体等。\n黄立明强调，能在这个方向跑出来的公司，无论海外还是国内，高瓴判断最终都不会有很多。\n风口已至\n“我们现在先不纠结于怎么去取代英伟达，路都是一步一步走的。我觉得首先中国得有国产AI芯片、通用GPU、FPGA等底层算力。只要国内有市场需求，我们一定有很多机会。”华映资本主管合伙人章高男对钛媒体App表示，国内半导体产业风口已至，中国现在切入GPU市场是“天时、地利、人和”皆备，尤其半导体和下一代AI技术都是中国必须突围的领域。\n章高男举了一个例子，金山办公产品虽然逊于微软Office套件，但市场给出1100多亿元市值，背后重要原因之一是，中国必须得有国产office，同样道理也适用于国产的GPU市场。\n华映资本是国内最早布局移动互联网和文化产业的私募股权基金之一，近几年To B领域也成为华映资本重点关注的投资领域。目前华映资本在To B领域投资的30余个项目，投资总额超7亿元生态，由技术型投资人章高男负责搭建。在数据中台及底层算力相关领域，华映资本投资布局了壁仞科技、天云大数据，中科海微等项目。\n实际上，作为横跨视觉计算和AI计算的通用平台，GPU拥有巨大的市场空间。据东吴证券测算，预计到2027年，GPU领域国产替代的市场空间规模超过341亿美元。除了既有的游戏市场，在工业、医疗、军事航天等方向都有进一步的发挥空间。\n今年3月，原商汤科技总裁张文联合创立的通用智能芯片设计商“壁仞科技”完成了B轮融资。2019年9月成立以来，公司总融资额超47亿元人民币，投资方包括高瓴创投、华映资本、中国平安、招商局资本、BAI资本、国盛集团国改基金等，估值已超过100亿元，成长半导体行业势头最为迅猛的“独角兽”企业之一。\n除壁仞外，沐曦集成电路、摩尔线程等入局GPU领域的企业也都完成了融资。\n8月25日，GPU厂商沐曦集成电路宣布完成10亿元人民币的A轮融资，创始人陈维良、杨建等均来自美国芯片巨头AMD，投资方包括中国国有企业结构调整基金股份有限公司、中国互联网投资基金、经纬中国、和利资本、红杉中国、光速中国、国创中鼎、智慧互联产业基金、上海科创基金、联想创投等；而2020年成立的摩尔线程，宣称100天内就完成了两轮数十亿元融资，团队成员主要来自英伟达，投资方包括深创投、红杉资本中国基金、招商局创投、字节跳动、小马智行、五源资本等。\n不过，一个有趣的现象是，壁仞、沐曦、摩尔线程上述三家初创企业是名副其实的“PPT融资造芯”，融资时无一家完成首颗芯片的流片（流水线试生产）。\n为何市场投资人愿意对此敞开钱包？数位投资人在接受钛媒体App采访时表示，这些项目能够获得大量资本支持，原因都为投资早期，主要看的还是团队、赛道两部分：AI芯片赛道风口已至，高管团队也均出自“美国芯片三巨头”。\n“我觉得需要给这些企业机会和耐心，不可能500个人都在写PPT。制造芯片是一个5年到10年的事情，我们愿意去投的原因，并非是投机或者是忽悠。我认为，投半导体赛道本身风险就高，需要做好长周期的打算，需要有足够强的风险承担能力，这和投资互联网的模式创新完全不一样。”上述投资人对钛媒体App表示。\n但也有半导体行业投资人指出，上述投资项目本质上还是希望市值撑高，有更高的回报率，尤其“芯片热”环境下，风投机构需要不断在中早期寻找这些GPU、AI芯片企业标的，希望从中赌得一份更高的回报。\n此外，在这一波GPU创业浪潮中，创始团队师出“美国芯片三巨头”。例如，天数智芯首席科学家郑金山曾任AMD首席技术专家；沐曦的创始团队主要来自AMD，CEO陈维良曾在AMD担任图形研发高级总监，CTO杨建曾任AMD Fellow（院士）；壁仞科技最新上任的联席CEO李新荣，曾任AMD全球副总裁，壁仞科技高级副总裁陈文中也曾在AMD任职。\n对此，章高男表示，AMD是GPU领域排名前二的芯片巨头，关于GPU核心研发都在上海，而图形渲染的研发是在美国，企业可以去找AMD和英伟达两家公司高管去沟通，而最终选择的人肯定是半导体行业内的佼佼者。\n鄢贵海认为，在细分新兴赛道，凭借需求侧的应用“势能”，中国芯片企业集中优势兵力，立足服务本土企业，突出开发的敏捷性，是有机会在产品定义、方案迭代周期上超越“英伟达”这些芯片巨头。他预计，10年内会出现一批技术领先的国产GPU、DPU企业。\n“芯片产业五个环节：设计、制造、封测、材料、EDA五个环节中，与应用最相关的是设计，我们最大的优势又在于应用，所以非常有机会在“设计”这一环节取得突破，然后以点带面，逐步扩大胜利版图。所谓“弯道超车”还是追赶策略，切入面向未来的新赛道并且全力加速才更有可能占据新的战略制高点。希望能在10年内能出现一批技术领先、产品扎实而且富有战略意识的企业。”鄢贵海对钛媒体App表示。\n壁仞科技创始人张文表示，对芯片公司的能力要求从产品级提升到系统级和生态级。时间上不超过5年，中国在AI芯片设计领域赶上甚至领先国际水准。他强调，超越英伟达，需要重新定义一个产品，以及重新定义一个市场。\n百亿DPU芯片市场“爆火”\n在黄仁勋看来，负责在数据中心传输和处理数据的数据处理单元（DPU），正与CPU、GPU共同组成“未来计算的三大支柱”。当中国芯片企业发力GPU时，英伟达则把目光放在了CPU、DPU这两个新市场中。\n2020年9月，英伟达宣布拟以400亿美元，从日本软件集团处收购英国芯片设计商Arm，预计写下半导体行业最大的并购案。但这笔交易存有争议，目前还等待欧盟、英国、美国和中国等政府的批准。但2021年4月，英伟达则宣布进军数据中心CPU市场，发布Grace CPU处理器，也就是本文开头黄仁勋所讲的那一段话。（详见钛媒体App前文：《英国政府出手干预，英伟达400亿美元并购Arm交易生变》）\nCPU和GPU之外，英伟达还在布局DPU。2019年，英伟达宣布以69亿美元全现金的形式收购以色列网络芯片商迈络思（Mellanox），并最终将其拿下。而这笔英伟达有史以来规模最大的收购，黄仁勋最看重的就是迈络思在数据中心技术等方面独步天下的能力。2020年10月，英伟达首次推出了DPU — NVIDIA BlueField系列数据处理器。\n究其根本，一方面DPU更灵活安全，更重要的是，DPU可以解放CPU的算力，释放服务器的负载，并凭借低功耗显著降低综合成本，甚至还可以改善AI和机器学习应用的性能。\n据IDC统计，全球算力的需求每3.5个月就会翻一倍，远远超过了当前算力的增长速度。在此驱动下，全球计算、存储和网络基础设施也在发生根本转变：一些数据量过大的工作负载，过多占用CPU资源，与之协同作战的各种“X”PU芯片便应运而生，GPU、FPGA等芯片之外，DPU就是下一个“X”PU。\n业内人士就此做了一个形象的比喻，网络就像造马路，以前1G 10G时代马路已经不够宽了，车子越来越多，为了平衡压力，通过增加红绿灯和投入更多的交警来更高的协调资源，这样已经让原来的效率提高很多，但是仍然不够。必须第一扩大马路，这就是带宽增加，但是马路从2道变为4道，仅仅依靠红绿灯和有限的交警还是会堵塞，但是我们不能无限增加交警，这就需要马路能更加智能，帮助解决拥堵。\n章高男指出，大量的网络管理在CPU里面，占据了容器能力，而DPU则是将服务器智能提供空间能力，大量虚拟化空间可以提高算力需求。\n随着2020年，DPU的名声超出了竞争对手英特尔所推出的基础设施处理器(IPU)和SmartNIC，也让每个对数据中心业务虎视眈眈的企业都要在这个领域分一杯羹。DPU成为了各大芯片巨头、初创公司争相研发的新赛道，国产DPU现在几乎处在百花齐放的状态，红杉、高瓴创投、鼎晖、软银中国都开始入场。\n今年4月，天眼查数据显示，国产DPU芯片供应商“云豹智能”完成腾讯投资、红杉资本、耀途资本等联合的天使轮融资；5月末，芯启源完成数亿元Pre-A轮融资，投资方包括软银中国、浦东科创集团等；7月27日，DPU芯片研发商“中科驭数”完成华泰创新领投的数亿元A轮融资；8月30日，DPU芯片研发商星云智联宣布完成了数亿元天使轮融资，由高瓴创投领投，鼎晖VGC、华登国际中国基金参与跟投；9月初，IDG资本豪掷“云脉芯联”天使轮融资项目。\n“DPU有可能成为继CPU和GPU之后的第三颗算力芯片，但从结构上来看，DPU会更异构、也更专用。”鄢贵海在接受钛媒体App等采访时表示，DPU产生的背景是智能时代数据爆发导致的端-边-云一体化趋势带来的对计算延迟、数据安全、资源虚拟化需求。CPU对这些非业务性负载已不堪重负，迫切需要一个理想的对象来分担这些计算负载。\n头豹研究院则预测，中国DPU市场规模预计将在2025年达到37.4亿美元。全球DPU市场规模2025年预计将达到135.7亿美元。同时报告也指出，数据流通是DPU最大的应用市场，其中裸金属服务其对DPU存在刚需。DPU在电信市场的应用主要为边缘计算场景，渗透率不足5%。针对智能驾驶领域的DPU仍在探索阶段，预计在2023年DPU才有望布局在智能驾驶领域。\n中国DPU市场规模，2020-2025年预测，来源：头豹研究院\n鄢贵海指出，CPU的性能从5-10年前每年30%的增幅，到三年前大概只有每年不到3%的性能增幅。而网络带宽每年依旧还有35%左右的增长。\n以中泰证券为例，当时该公司遇到的挑战是，交易报单合规检查太慢，需要提高交易效率。于是，中科驭数与中泰证券、上交所技术有限责任公司联合研发了一套极速风控系统解决方案，来加速这一流程。中科驭数相继研发了超低时延智能网卡、数据计算加速卡等多套产品和解决方案，主要面向高带宽、低时延、数据密集型等场景。该公司今年已经实现千万级别的季度营收。中科驭数的下一代DPU芯片预计将于2021年底完成设计，预计可处理高达200G网络带宽数据。\n不过，DPU市场虽然火爆，但概念较新，未知更多，投资风险也会更大。\n芯启源CEO卢笙指出，目前DPU细分赛道的壁垒还是相对较高的，除了技术壁垒之外，还有市场的壁垒，需要客户不断迭代，尤其是配合开源软件不断升级去适配客户快速变化的软硬件环境。因此VC（风险投资）在投资之前，一定要先认可赛道，且有足够的耐心。他强调，投资人需要对市场进行不断地观察并调整判断，现在谁也无法预料未来DPU发展前景。\n也有媒体认为，当英伟达进入新开辟的CPU和DPU战场，对中国的GPU厂商或许是个利好，尤其英伟达依然花大量精力放在400亿美元收购英国芯片设计商Arm公司的并购交易上，这对新创GPU企业而言，可能是个追赶的时机。\n正如章高男对钛媒体App所说，“从逻辑上讲，门槛不高的事情通常稀缺性都不高。（芯片半导体赛道）有些事情是很难的，需要长时间投入，虽然是高风险，但总归得有人去做。这是真正对国家有利的长远投入，其实应该鼓励投资。否则的话，这些需要长时间投入的难事，谁都不去做，你永远上不了台阶。”\n章高男强调，虽然风险投资肯定要追求回报，但他认为，在整个资金分配合理情况下，拿出一部分投资半导体赛道的初创企业，不仅有极强的社会意义，更是某种长期价值投资的重要体现。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"NVDA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3616,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":882116470,"gmtCreate":1631666707990,"gmtModify":1676530603339,"author":{"id":"3457141092286042","authorId":"3457141092286042","name":"价值投机投资","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be23b46444ac2a96142fb1b29256fc15","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3457141092286042","idStr":"3457141092286042"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"Apple

Pro等事宜，还有人根据新一代智能手表的发货时间“待定”推测遭遇生产困难。80分钟的发布会结束时，苹果跌幅扩大至1.5%，接近四周最低。\n\n美东时间9月14日周二下午1点（北京时间15日凌晨1点），苹果公司如期举行2021年秋季新品发布会。\n这是苹果因新冠疫情连续第七次举办的线上虚拟发布会，媒体称并无惊艳之处，公司股价下跌，80分钟的发布会结束时跌幅扩大至1.5%，或创8月19日以来的近四周最低。\n苹果新晋推出了新款旗舰智能手机iPhone 13系列、新版入门级iPad和iPad Mini、新一代智能手表Apple Watch，但没有提到外界期待的无线蓝牙耳机AirPods、笔记本电脑MacBook Pro等事宜。\n\niPhone 13全系列升级A15仿生芯片和电影拍摄模式、刘海更小、电池更大，Pro系列增设蓝色和1TB内存\n华尔街见闻曾提到，过去一年里，苹果利润创历史新高，在很大程度上归功于去年秋季推出的iPhone 12系列手机，这令iPhone 13系列成为本次发布会的重中之重。不过，跟踪苹果的分析师预计，与去年具有里程碑意义的5G版iPhone 12相比，新iPhone系列的升级幅度不会太大。\n今日发布的新款iPhone 13系列确实设计基本与去年相同，不过刘海更小、电池更大，均支持5G无线标准，电池续航时间将增加1.5至2.5个小时不等，9月17日开启预定，9月24日起发货。\niPhone 13 Mini和iPhone 13的屏幕尺寸仍维持5.4英寸和6.1英寸，并拥有五种颜色，起售价分别为699美元和799美元，也与去年价格相同，但基本款的储存空间提升至128GB。\n\niPhone 13 Pro和Pro Max的屏幕尺寸仍维持6.1英寸和6.7英寸，增设“Sierra Blue”的蓝色款，起售价分别为999美元和1099美元，与去年价格相同，但都增设1TB的超大内存选项。\n\n苹果发布会结束后，苹果最新款iPhone国行价格出炉：\n\n iPhone 13 mini国行起售价为5199元人民币，iPhone 13起售价为5999元，顶配的iPhone 13 Pro Max起售价为12999元，全系列9月17日起开始预购，9月24日正式发售。新款平板电脑iPad mini起售价为3799元。\n\n\niPhone 13及其Pro版本的最大区别仍为后置摄像头的个数，Pro系列有变焦、广角和超广角镜头的三摄设计，可对前处2厘米的物体对焦，iPhone 13基本款保留广角和超广角镜头的对角线排列，但12兆像素的后置广角镜头带有更大的传感器，可以捕捉多出50%的光线。\n此外，iPhone 13 Pro系列的显示屏被称为“Super Retina XDR with ProMotion”，刷新率是旧款苹果手机的两倍，这意味着iPhone触摸屏的滑动会更流畅、延迟更少。\n\niPhone 13及其Pro全系列都由苹果新一代A15仿生芯片驱动，CPU和GPU性能都大为提升，芯片里还有专门用于运行人工智能算法的部分。\n\n全系列手机都改进相机和摄影功能，增设“电影模式”（Cinematic mode），可对移动主体保持对焦，以及实时自动的对焦变换、创造丰富景深。苹果称，“电影模式”等于能用手机拍电影，是IPhone 13全系列独有的功能。\n\n新款iPad及Mini性能提升下周发货，分析质疑第七代智能手表遭遇生产困难，健身流媒体订阅的全球扩张打压同类公司股价\n发布最重磅硬件产品手机之前，苹果CEO库克首先介绍了Apple TV+流媒体视频订阅服务的新节目，并称正在投入数十亿美元制造原创内容，每月收费4.99美元或可与其他苹果服务捆绑付费，但公司并未透露订户数量。\n苹果随后推出了新款入门级平板电脑iPad，搭载升级后的A13芯片，运行速度较老版的A12芯片提升20%，12兆像素前值摄像头将提升Zoom和FaceTime等视频通话画质，并有LTE无线连接。新款iPad起售价不变为329美元，但基本款内存更大为64GB，即日起可预定，下周正式发售。\n\n升级版iPad Mini获得全新设计和性能提升，被公司称为史上最强大的同类产品和“史上最大升级”，将支持5G网络和拥有更小的8.3英寸屏幕。它的边框更小，指纹传感器内置在顶部按钮中，配置有12兆像素的后置摄像头和立体声扬声器，包括紫色等多种颜色，使用USB-C连接器，并支持第二代苹果触控笔。起售价499美元，即日起可预定，下周正式发售。\n\n苹果还推出了第七代苹果手表（Apple Watch Series 7），外观和软件都经过重新设计，屏幕面积较第六代手表增加20%并可显示更多信息，保留了带有圆角边缘的工业设计，屏幕更抗裂，充电速度更快。入门级型号有五种颜色选择，提供铝、钢和钛外壳，旧款表带可与新型号配合使用。\n\n值得注意的是，苹果虽称新一代智能手表起售价399美元，但没有透露具体发售日期，仅称“在今年秋季晚些时候”上市。有分析称，苹果手表可能遭遇制造挑战、进而导致生产延迟。\n天风国际曾在最新报告中称，负责生产Apple Watch 7 系列面板模组的立讯精密正积极复制产线，预计9月底所有产线开始大量生产，Apple Watch 7的供货自10月中下旬后将会有明显改善。\n\n苹果同时推介了Apple Fitness+健身流媒体订阅服务，今年将在额外15个国家推出，拓展到全球20余个国家，增设普拉提、冬季健身和引导冥想等内容和多语种版本，还将添加社交功能“Group Workouts”（团体健身），可与朋友相约视频锻炼，在9月下旬和今年秋季陆续推出。\n在Apple Fitness+全球扩展的消息发布后，互动健身平台Peloton Interactive跌超2%，从昨日所创的三周新高回落，前身为专业减重顾问公司Weight Watchers 的 WW跌近5%，至11个月最低。\n\n发布会当日稍早，苹果已向其移动操作系统iOS发布了相关的安全修复补丁，以修复与iPhone iMessage功能相关的漏洞。研究机构Citizen Lab称，一家以色列公司自2月份以来一直在利用这一弱点。美国联邦调查局和以色列官员一直在暗中调查该公司。\n金融软件数据公司FactSet调查的分析师预测，苹果本财年的手机出货量将为2.39亿部，超越2015财年2.31亿部的纪录最高，iPhone今年的销售额将增长41%，达到创纪录的1940亿美元。但苹果明年不太可能保持这种增长。今年7月，苹果表达了对手机行业芯片短缺影响的担忧。并且，在iPhone 12等重大新产品推出后的12个月，销售通常也会出现下滑。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4495,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":881034729,"gmtCreate":1631280946261,"gmtModify":1676530517575,"author":{"id":"3457141092286042","authorId":"3457141092286042","name":"价值投机投资","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be23b46444ac2a96142fb1b29256fc15","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3457141092286042","idStr":"3457141092286042"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"?yyds","listText":"?yyds","text":"?yyds","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/881034729","repostId":"1195688156","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1195688156","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1631280716,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1195688156?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-10

These data show that China's urgency in developing electric vehicles far exceeds that of other countries.</p><p>As an entrepreneur, you have little power; you can only solve problems from a technical perspective.<strong>At the time, solar energy cost 1.6 euros per watt, which was equivalent to 15 yuan. From a technological perspective, BYD believed that it would achieve 1.3 yuan per watt ten years later, and it has done so now.</strong></p><p>Batteries had a cycle life of only 3,000 times back then, but now iron batteries can do 16,000 cycles. Electric vehicles at that time<span>Market share</span>From approximately 0, the penetration rate has now reached as high as 11.3%. Last September, the government proposed to achieve carbon peaking by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, bringing development opportunities to new energy sources.</p><p>BYD identified three future opportunities as early as 2008:<strong>Solar and energy storage power plants, electric vehicles, and electric vehicle-based semiconductors—these three growth opportunities have ushered in unprecedented opportunities.</strong></p><p><img src=\"https://fid-75186.picgzc.qpic.cn/20210612114329910d173aee0i7s0tp5\"/></article></body></html></p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a href=\"http://gu.qq.com/resources/shy/news/detail-v2/index.html#/?id=nesSN202106121143317c13add3&s=b\">腾讯新闻</a></p>\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c98d33d3369990730a901b19fedfe1d4","relate_stocks":{"002594":"比亚迪","01211":"比亚迪股份","00285":"比亚迪电子"},"source_url":"http://gu.qq.com/resources/shy/news/detail-v2/index.html#/?id=nesSN202106121143317c13add3&s=b","is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/9a95c1376e76363c1401fee7d3717173","article_id":"2142057207","content_text":"6月9日晚上，2021年亚布力中国企业家论坛“中国商业心灵”举行，比亚迪股份有限公司董事长兼总裁王传福，也发表了对比亚迪战略和新能源汽车行业的看法。王传福表示，比亚迪从2008年就决定坚持使用磷酸铁锂电池，这背后的主要原因是，三元电池用了很多钴、镍，中国没有钴、镍也很少，中国不能从石油的卡脖子转成钴、镍的卡脖子，真正大规模使用的电池不能依赖稀有金属。电动车发展带来了很多安全问题：自燃、爆炸、燃烧。比亚迪在去年3月推出了首创的刀片电池，让电池的发展走上更健康、可持续的道路。如今的刀片电池解决了能量密度问题，更解决了安全问题，将“自燃”从新能源车的字典中删除。2008年关于新能源车大家最关心续航里程，如今大家最关心的是安全问题。刀片电池解决了市场痛点，才能真正抓住市场。中国电动车装载磷酸铁锂电池的比例已上升至50%，还在继续上升。磷酸铁锂电池更安全，不被稀有金属卡脖子，成本也更有竞争力。此外，王传福还表示，今年新能源车发展势头都很好，比亚迪迎来从未有过的发展期和成长期，比亚迪今天的成绩靠的是坚持。2008年比亚迪发布宣传片，当时很多人都看不懂，电池储能可能吗？电动车可能实现吗？一个企业家要有很好的战略眼光，但是更重要的是坚持。比亚迪宣布做电动车，股价跌了40%，太阳能亏了很多钱，但比亚迪始终在坚持。2008年电动车只能做到300公里里程，现在可以达到600公里。BYD，build your dream，这个梦想是“绿色”的梦想。人类从第一次工业革命到现在260年，260年，我们已经用掉了一半的化石能源，再过250年人类怎么办？如何解决能源问题？如何解决可持续发展问题？这就是企业家的责任。比亚迪在2008年提出，要利用用之不竭的能源——太阳能，利用电池储能——铁电池，发展电动车。中国72%的石油依靠进口，进口石油中70%通过南海运到岸上。在所有石油中，70用于汽车。从这些数据看出，中国发展电动车的紧迫性远超其他国家。作为企业家没有什么权力，只能从技术角度解决问题。当时的太阳能1.6欧元/瓦，相当于15元人民币，当时比亚迪从技术的眼光，相信十年后会做到1.3元/瓦，现在做到了。电池当时的循环寿命只有3000次，现在铁电池可以做的16000次。电动车当时的市场占有率从约等于0，现在的渗透率已经高达11.3%。去年九月国家提出2030年碳达峰，2060年碳中和，新能源迎来发展的机遇。比亚迪在2008年就发现了未来的三个风口：太阳能和储能电站、电动车、基于电动车的半导体，这三个风口迎来了前所未有的机遇。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"002594":1,"00285":1,"01211":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4339,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
