As the "beacon of technology", the United States has created many technological miracles in the past few decades, especially the underlying technology of the Internet, which has always been in the hands of American companies. For example, the "win+intel" and "ARM+Android" systems dominate the PC and mobile phone markets. Even though , apple, , and macOS later became popular, this was still American technology. It is precisely because of the monopoly of American core technologies that the problems of "cut-off", "eavesdropping" and "security risks" have become more and more serious around the world. For this reason, it is urgent to have independent and controllable core technologies!
In terms of operating systems, Huawei independently developed Hongmeng has filled the technical gap in domestic operating systems and is one of the few times in my country that has broken the monopoly of US companies in core technologies. This It is an operating system based on the Internet of Things that can be adapted to most IoT devices including smartphones, PCs, smart TVs, etc. In order to fully leverage the value of Hongmeng, Huawei donated Hongmeng to the Open Atomic Foundation. Other developers can use it directly and expand our own ecosystem on this basis.
The emergence of Hongmeng has given the domestic operating system its own soul, and a decision by Loongson Zhongke has given the body with a "soul" its own "heart".
Loongson and Hongmeng jointly
According to reports, Loongson Zhongke, my country's leading PC processor company, has completed the adaptation work with Hongmeng. is the leader in PC processors and the leader in operating systems. The strong alliance between the two giants indicates that our country has begun to establish its own ecosystem, and domestic operating systems based on domestic chips are getting closer and closer to us.
Loongson Zhongke, this is a "national team" that truly fights for "national beliefs", backed by Chinese Academy of Sciences , and its chairman Hu Weiwu is a doctoral supervisor at the Institute of Computer Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences. In order to prevent core technologies from being controlled by others, Loongson does not accept investment from overseas capital, and has set a very high standard for the company from the beginning. Core technologies must be 100% independently developed.
The loongarch architecture independently developed by Loongson not only has completely independent intellectual property rights, but also breaks the monopoly of Intel X86 in the PC processor architecture for many years. The exposure of Loongson’s new generation products has made Loongson a Chinese chip “dark horse” in the global market!
Chinese chip dark horse
According to reports, the design of Loongson 3A6000 has been completed, and samples are expected to be available in the first half of 2023. This 3A6000 uses the 14nm process technology . Although it is the same as the previous generation process, this chip has achieved a qualitative leap in performance by upgrading the core architecture and reduced the cost. It is reported that the simulation running score of 3A6000 has increased by 30%, the floating point running score has increased by 60%, and the overall performance has caught up with the Zen3 architecture of AMD and Intel's 11th generation Core. It can fully meet the performance needs of Adobe's family bucket and 3A large-scale games.
For a long time, Loongson processors have been mainly used in government agencies, and the consumer market has been dominated by win+intel. The key to whether a technology can ultimately succeed lies in how to build an ecological moat. In the operating system market, Hongmeng has entered the 3.0 era. Currently, there are more than 320 million devices equipped with and Hongmeng OS, and there are more than 2 million developers. However, due to the influence of chip rules, Huawei also needs in-depth cooperation with a chip company.
Chinese computer expert, Academician Ni Guangnan has warned many times that if we want to avoid being stuck, we must achieve independence in root technology. Faced with more and more companies being choked by American technology, the powerful alliance between Hongmeng and Loongson will surely drive the development of domestic software and hardware companies, further expand the independent model, and ultimately bring about its own "win+intel" combination. This is exactly the case with
. Regarding the rise of Loongson and the alliance between Loongson and Hongmeng, some foreign media expressed emotion: The technical barriers established by the United States in the PC field over the past few decades will be completely broken by Chinese companies!
