Recently, due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the world has fallen into a "squatting at home" mode, and normal life and work have to be affected. For factories, many countries also have to order shutdowns. Intel CEO Siribo said in an interview recently that they were not affected much because CPU production is so important that it is not restricted.
In an interview with CNBC, Siribo also talked about the impact of the current epidemic. Siribo said he did not know when the current epidemic would end and when the economic situation would normalize.
However, the suspension of production has little effect on Intel. SRB is proud to say that in almost all countries in the world where production is restricted, Intel ’s products are exceptional, because their production is regarded as vital and necessary of.
Siribo said that products such as notebooks, desktops and servers are more important during isolation than normal work. Facts have proved that people cannot rely on mobile phones to work remotely and still cannot do without laptops or desktops.
According to Intel ’s previous news, Intel ’s production, assembly, testing and supply chain in the United States, Israel, Ireland, Malaysia, Vietnam and other regions are running normally, and the current on-time delivery rate exceeds 90%-in this way, 14nm and 10nm The supply of the two most core processors is still guaranteed.
It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the previous cumulative donation of US $ 10 million, Intel announced in the past two days that it will donate another US $ 50 million to help fight the epidemic, of which US $ 40 million is used for related technology research and development, scientific research and online teaching. Ten thousand US dollars support external partners and internal staff rescue projects, so that Intel's total donation reached 60 million US dollars.
