"Here's how we play this," he began. "We'll divide the first year of production into segmented allocations. NVIDIA takes forty percent of the wafers for GPU and accelerator production, twenty percent goes to strategic partnerships, companies like Meta, Google, and OpenAI, and the remaining forty percent is sold through long-term contracts. That last group will be our biggest cash generator."
Timothy listened quietly, nodding slightly. "And the pricing model?"
"Tiered," Jensen said immediately. "We start with a premium access fee, about thirty percent above market, for companies who want priority fabrication. Then we tie it with an exclusivity clause. OpenAI's already showing interest in exclusivity for their AI compute chips. They'll pay double the base rate to guarantee throughput priority. Once they're locked in, the others will follow, none of them can afford to lag behind in this race."
