High School Belle Fell in Love with Me

Chapter 649: Chapter 276: Men Smell So Good Ahhh_2

The GPU priced at 699 US Dollars is offered to Aurora Studio for 499 US Dollars.

The order volume is calculated at 699 US Dollars, otherwise, Aurora Studio would have to take on ten million units, which might not sell even if heavily discounted.

Li Yang’s additional condition is that they have preferential agency rights for new products and can adjust the order list according to their own needs, such as NVIDIA’s supercomputing GPUs...

Zheng Yi agreed to this too, as selling to anyone is still selling.

The market for supercomputing GPUs isn’t large, mainly some big companies purchase them to provide computing power support, each priced from several tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of US Dollars.

Zheng Yi also set some boundaries, such as Aurora Studio’s products not directly entering primary markets and not being able to open stores for sales, but only for after-sales services.

At the same time, Li Yang also added some conditions, mainly about the payment method.

Aurora Studio will only pay 30% of the payment each year, with the remaining 70% paid at 10% annually; the first year’s payment will be fully settled by the seventh year.

This point was also fine since it won’t affect NVIDIA’s finances.

Lastly, there were various breach agreements.

Both parties set the breach penalty very high, fearing the other side would bail, amounting to a total of two billion US Dollars.

...

Li Yang waited in Jiangbei for a week, and Zheng Yi called people over to sign all the contracts.

After signing the contracts, Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

He had long wanted to prepare his own computing power center, and this contract happens to last until the end of 2023, allowing him to take a large number of H100s from NVIDIA.

It would be difficult to obtain them later, as NVIDIA’s CEO, Huang the Dog, isn’t a good character and wouldn’t cooperate with them then.

Moreover, domestic alternatives are about to come out.

Bai Qing came up behind him, gently squeezing his shoulders, "Honey, is there any work arrangement coming up next?"

Li Yang turned to look, and Bai Qing was actually wearing black stockings.

Who wears black stockings every day casually?

This is even inside the office.

"No, next it’s just training, preparing for the world competition."

"Huh? Not taking a break?"

Bai Qing felt that Li Yang was already very strong, barely playing for the past six months yet still great in competition.

"There can be no mistakes in the world competition, I must get well-coordinated with my teammates. They haven’t participated in the world competition before, anything could happen then."

Bai Qing whispered, "Then why don’t I change my name to the world competition, so you can beat me first..."

"Hey...beating is impossible, but I can eat!"

The matter of marrying Jiang Banxia was something everyone tacitly didn’t mention.

Bai Qing pretended she never saw the news, she never goes online.

As for Li Yang... he just has a moral void emotionally that can never be filled.

...

Li Yang indeed entered a training state, and could basically only video chat with Jiang Banxia every day.

He invited Jiang Banxia over several times since it wasn’t far.

Yet Jiang Banxia just wouldn’t come.

He had no choice but to wait until the world competition started to discuss it.

This year’s world competition is in Po County, where they sponsored a million US Dollars.

That’s what tourist cities like most, inviting projects with wide audiences to come and host competitions, esports projects offer the best value for money.

Not only is the audience broad, but it’s also full of young people, and it doesn’t cost much.

If you invited two NBA teams over for a match, the cost would be too high, five to six million US Dollars, and they wouldn’t care.

The standards between esports players and athletes are different.

During Li Yang’s training period, Aurora Studio specifically established an assembly machine brand.

Apart from GPUs and CPUs, everything else was used from domestic brands, priced at 6999, promising unconditional replacement for non-human faults within two years and five years of after-sales service.

Anyway, after-sales were attributed to NVIDIA, and they had to cover it if there were product issues.

The price of the whole machine wasn’t expensive, averaged out, Li Yang only made ten percent on the graphics card, mainly because some domestic brands were slightly more expensive.

That’s unavoidable, as Li Yang demanded high quality and the best after-sales service from them, plus they started relatively late and invested heavily in R&D, needing to recoup costs.

Li Yang took some of his profits to cultivate the related supply chain.

As for graphics cards and processors, there are also companies in the country.

Those companies aren’t lacking funds, anyone with a bit of core technology has investors willing to step in, so he didn’t want to muddy the waters.

The only core-related area he touched was storage, as Yangtze River Storage just broke through with their new technology and needed orders, otherwise competing with South Korea would still take a few years.

...

"Xue, I’m about to go abroad to compete, probably for a month, I have to head back to Jiang City tomorrow, if you don’t leave the door open for me tonight, I’ll break in!"

"Are you asking for trouble?"

"I can’t hold it any longer!"

"You you you... come in the later half of the night..."

...

Li Yang felt that Xue Ning was acting strange.

After having a child, she didn’t care much about him anymore.

Although she eased a lot of his pressure, easing it too much made him feel a bit guilty.

He always needed a bit of discipline; without any discipline, would she still be Xue Ning?

If she wasn’t disciplined one more time, he wouldn’t be surprised if Xue Ning took the child and ran someday.

At night, he sneaked from the balcony into Xue Ning’s room.

The house in Jiangbei is good, as Li Yang’s bedroom connects directly to Xue Ning’s room, usually separated by a glass door, no one pays attention.
