In all walks of life, as long as it is a hot-selling product, it will be difficult to keep it in stock, unless it is deliberately hoarding to raise the price.
This kind of shameless thing is often done by small and medium-sized companies or large companies with no structure, but after all, Nvidia's market value is approaching two trillion US dollars, and it is impossible to engage in such low-level marketing methods at this time.
Therefore, except for the graphics cards that have not yet been produced, NVIDIA currently has finished products that are ready for delivery.
Since the chips of the H100 graphics card are manufactured by TSMC, the chips are shipped from the other side of the world to the United States, and then are repackaged by NVIDIA's own production lines before being delivered uniformly by them.
For example, Company A ordered 3,000 graphics cards last year, and these 3,000 graphics cards were delivered in three installments. Now, there may be exactly 1,000 graphics cards that have already arrived, and they are preparing to notify the other party to pick up the goods. Only these 1,000 graphics cards will remain in Nvidia's hands temporarily.
Normally, according to the current production capacity, the number of graphics cards that can be delivered every day is around four to five thousand.
The key is that many companies have very strong demand for this graphics card, and there is no need to notify them to pick up the goods. They usually go to the delivery center of the assembly plant to pick up the goods two or three days in advance, and some even fly directly to the assembly plant by helicopter. As soon as the graphics card was delivered offline, it was immediately taken to his company by helicopter.
After all, AI is now the biggest trend among technology companies in the world. Not to mention the world's top companies, even small and medium-sized enterprises in Silicon Valley are tightening their belts and purchasing H100 graphics cards to try to train their own AI models. , some companies have even announced All In AI, so the demand for this graphics card has never been stronger.
However, the total number of graphics cards ready to be delivered is only more than 10,000.
He could only grit his teeth and said: "Mr. Rothschild, we here can see the production, packaging and delivery status of all H100 graphics cards in real time. Currently, all the graphics cards that we have not yet delivered to customers, there are only There are more than 11,000 graphics cards. There are almost 13,000 graphics cards that can be offline in the next three days. I can make my own decision and give you all these graphics cards. I will find a way to appease the customer, but you want 40,000 graphics cards. , I really can�t do this..."
Howard didn't hesitate and said directly: "Okay, you can help me collect 25,000 yuan. I will not miss you the money. I will think of other ways for the rest."
The other party quickly said: "Okay Mr. Rothschild, within three days, 25,000 pieces will be absolutely no problem, I guarantee you!"
Howard said with satisfaction: "Very good, thank you for your hard work. I owe you this once. If you need my help in the future, please call me directly."
The other party quickly expressed his gratitude.
Howard hung up the phone and immediately called Zuckerberg again.
Zuckerberg, who has risen to prominence in just over ten years, is almost like the biological son of the financial giants on Wall Street.
The venture capital fund behind the Rothschild family is itself a shareholder of Zuckerberg. Out of admiration for this young upstart, Howard met with him a few years ago. He was very humble and understanding in front of him. , left a good impression on Howard.
However, even if he got Howard's appreciation, Zuckerberg didn't dare to call Howard casually, so when he suddenly received a call from him, he was very shocked and said very respectfully: "Rothschild Sir, please call me, how can I help you?"
Howard said directly: "Zach, I need fifteen thousand H100 graphics cards. I heard that you have hundreds of thousands of them. Can you help me solve this gap?"
Zuckerberg was a little flattered when he heard Howard call him Zuckerberg. After all, Zuckerberg is his full last name, and calling him Zuckerberg was obviously a bit affectionate.
But when he heard that Howard wanted to ask him for a graphics card, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if someone had cut off a piece with a knife.
Sometimes, human nature is very contradictory.
When you have no money, you don't feel bad even if you spend all your money at once or even go into debt. But when you have money, you will feel extremely painful even if you only spend a fraction of your total assets. JrNovels.com
