Changhe 3 with integrated 4G baseband was also Chen Zifan’s initial goal. At the same time, Changhe 3 was also the reason why he dared to set the price of Stardust 3+ to 5,999 in the plan. Otherwise, why would it be 2,000 yuan more expensive than Stardust 3?
It is one thing to popularize 4G and build 4G base stations. Whether or not there is a product is another matter. Let’s develop the product first and then discuss the popularization later. He cannot control other cities, and Haicheng must be the first to popularize it.
Then let’s start from Haicheng, but releasing too many things at once may cause unnecessary risks. Chen Zifan plans to follow the previous plan, register patents bit by bit, and develop steadily.
Given the area of Haicheng, at least 5,000 4G base stations are needed to achieve basic coverage of the 4G network. Not only can Stardust Technology not afford this money, but as a technology supplier, it must also earn some profits.
After the heads of the three major operators return, Chen Zifan will send people to contact them. The sooner this part of the work is promoted, the better, so that there will be no 4G network after the release of Stardust 3+.
At least not in Haicheng...
Of course, the current main work should still be on the production of chip processing equipment. The drawings are available, but production is not that easy. The polishing and assembly of each part must be very precise.
Just one etching machine requires the support of more than a dozen large-scale processing and precision processing equipment to produce it. This is the result of streamlining [Analysis of Counterfeit Products]. If it is the original version, it cannot be produced.
After sorting out all the technology and throwing it into the [Stardust Technology] w w w..com in his mind, Chen Zifan began to purchase equipment according to the drawings, and by the way, divided the core area of the Stardust Factory into a separate area for production.
Just by looking at this movement, the employees of Stardust Technology also knew that Chen Zifan was coming back to make a new move. As for what it was... Not to mention that they didn't know, even some cadres and senior leaders didn't know yet.
But Chen Zifan still explained to them: "Stardust Technology has further cooperated with the officials. Next, we will allocate part of our energy to specialize in chip manufacturing and use it in our next generation products..."
Chen Zifan is very skillful in using the official as a shield. Such a good shield does not need to be used in vain. Among other things, Stardust Technology has withstood the main public opinion attack due to the recent promotion of motorcycle bans and restrictions in Haicheng.
Many experts have made it clear in news interviews: "Expanding the scope and intensity of motorcycle bans and restrictions, and promoting electric vehicles will not make Haicheng more environmentally friendly. On the contrary, it will cause Haicheng to lose a large number of migrant workers..."
After all, electric vehicles should be sold as they should, and the owners of car dealerships are not fools. If the government wants to get rid of motorcycles, do they have to go against it? Instead of complaining every day, it is better to switch to selling electric cars or mobile phones as soon as possible.
It's a money-making business on the surface, but who would have trouble with money? Brick family? Of course people can say whatever they want if they don’t have to worry about eating and drinking, but ordinary people don’t have this condition.
In fact, what Zhuan said this time is correct. The new round of motorcycle bans and restrictions has caused many migrant workers to consider changing to another city, such as the more developed Beijing, or Jincheng, which is also along the coast and is comparable to Haicheng...
But this loss of migrant workers is not a problem at all for the development of Haicheng. The officials know what they want, and naturally they also know the price to pay. ….
This is just a motorcycle. When new energy vehicles develop in the future and compete head-on with traditional fuel vehicles, they will encounter much greater resistance than this.
The news that Chen Zifan was preparing to devote his energy to cooperating with the government to enter chip manufacturing quickly spread within Stardust Technology. After hearing this, the cadres became more and more excited. They had long been unhappy with MediaTek.
It’s not that MediaTek has breached the contract or something, but they think Stardust Technology should be better. Being restricted by MediaTek and TSMC also makes them unhappy. Now they have finally released their inhibitions:
"Haha, I knew it! Cooperating with MediaTek is just a stopgap measure! We have chip enhancement technology, why can't we make our own chips!"
"We at Stardust Technology are different from those rubbish and scammer companies! We receive less subsidies in the early stage, but we have more technology and products than they put together!"
"Why compete with that kind of embarrassing thing? It will only lower our level! Besides, do those scammers have products? Not even when they run away, right?"
"We really have technology and products! We should look for someone more powerful to compete with!"
"I knew before that Director Chen had a Changhe chip plan, but we didn't dare to talk nonsense. Now it's good. The Changhe chip project has finally started!"
"So will it be a 3G chip?"
"It must be! Otherwise, why would Mr. Chen go to Barcelona all the way? There must be something related!"
"What are we going to do with the J300 that day? The already approved Stardust 3 uses this chip... Hey, I forgot that there is also a Stardust 3+. Director Chen is so brave..."
"If this overturns, I'm afraid I will suffer a blow...but I believe that Director Chen will not overturn!"
"..."
The cadres of Stardust Technology are not sure why they trust Chen Zifan so much. Although what Chen Zifan has done is already very radical, they still believe that Chen Zifan can lead Stardust Technology to become better.
At present, the launch of the Changhe chip project has only been spread on a small scale and has not been announced to the whole society. There is no need for it, and Chen Zifan has always advocated that the product should be available first before promoting it.
And judging from the current situation, Stardust Technology has made enemies on all sides, and it would be inappropriate to promote its entry into chip manufacturing in a big way.
But he is not afraid of others finding out, so what if he finds out? Stardust Technology just makes chips, so what? Use whatever tricks you have.
Chen Zifan has already started construction. Officials will see if this will work? They also immediately sent people to start contacting Stardust Technology. According to the previous plan, Stardust Technology provided the technology and the government provided people and land to build the factory together.
In terms of funding, they will all contribute. Stardust Technology will contribute a small amount, the official will contribute a large amount, and some other funds will be absorbed. The premise is that Stardust Technology has perfect technology. As long as the technology is in place, the rest of the process can be accelerated.
The core area of the Stardust Factory will retain a production line dedicated to supplying Stardust products, taking a specialized route. The best will always be reserved for itself, and the rest will be considered for others.
When MediaTek learned that Stardust Technology was entering chip manufacturing, there was not much reaction. Many people even thought that this was Stardust Technology overestimating its capabilities:….
"They are too naive and don't understand TSMC's strength at all. How can chips be so easy to manufacture..."
"Globalization is an inevitable trend. With mobile phones so highly integrated, how can one family do everything?"
"Stardust Technology and Stardust Ecological Chain cannot solve all problems... they will definitely fail!"
"..."
If Chen Zifan heard that he had to compare words with them, and he was still global, he would always target this and that. Assuming that everyone cooperates and develops win-win, does he need to work so hard?
But this is impossible. Once Changhe chips are mass-produced, he will have to face greater pressure, but he doesn't care. This is the path he has chosen.
The last word is that you have a strong fist, and you cannot rely on others. Today, the chip is a fire dragon, tomorrow the screen has a viewing angle problem, the day after tomorrow the sensor has poor imaging effect...it's all annoying.
How could Chen Zifan tolerate this situation with his product requirements? At the very least, the core things must be in your own hands, such as communication technology, chip design, chip processing, lithium batteries, screens, etc.
Just leave the rest to the manufacturers in the Stardust ecological chain, or buy it directly from international manufacturers, such as sensors, lenses, etc. In terms of imaging, Chen Zifan has never paid much attention to it, but it is also improving steadily and orderly.
Recall that after 2018, major Android manufacturers have made photography and quick use their main tracks, and half of a press conference is spent promoting photography.
Chen Zifan believes that smartphones should develop more comprehensive functions. 3D imaging of radar scanning is an example. Of course, he will try his best to improve the Stardust phone to a certain level before doing anything else.
Just as Stardust Technology was busy preparing for its new job, another thing happened. The last interview revealed
Come on, interviews originally only accounted for a small part of the program, but they were magnified infinitely.
The source of this round of attacks comes from major imported car companies. The reason is that in an interview with the Technology Channel, Chen Zifan declared that "we are the future" and maliciously hyped Xinghan Zhixing to the forefront.
"Are new energy vehicles the future? This is the funniest joke I've heard this year. They don't even have a decent product, and they don't know where the confidence comes from. Our car factory has experienced a hundred years of development..."
Then these car companies began to talk about how profound the history of their brands is, how big the car factory is, how advanced the technology is, how professional the factory workers are, how superb their craftsmanship is, etc. ~
Chen Zifan knew at a glance that this was just commercial hype. He first stepped on Xinghan Zhixing and then promoted how good he was. Isn't the purpose of entering the Chinese market? Don’t you just want to make money from Chinese consumers?
As they said, Xinghan Zhixing's products were not mass-produced, but they did not form a direct conflict of interest with them. Chen Zifan really couldn't figure it out. Why would he come here to do such a thing when he could clearly promote it in the right way?
In the end, he reluctantly came up with a reasonable explanation: the fuel vehicle market is fiercely competitive and has serious internal conflicts. It is better to shift the conflicts away than to fight back and forth, so new energy vehicles have become their target.
The popularity of Stardust Technology and Chen Zifan is very high. This intensification of conflicts has caused a huge commotion on the Internet. With a little guidance from the trolls, more people can get to know the car and their brand.
By the way, I want to strengthen your confidence in buying fuel vehicles and tell everyone that fuel vehicles will not be eliminated in the future. With the existing technology, one car can be driven for 20 years without any problem!
After all, this is still a world of fuel vehicles. What is the use of your new energy vehicles in the future? Everyone also knows that interstellar battleships can be built in the future, so what? Don’t you have to run around every day for firewood, rice, oil and salt?
Chen Zifan didn't care, he was very calm, but Mo Shaokun and others were so angry that they blushed and had thick necks after seeing it. The most frustrating thing was that they couldn't refute...
"Damn! I'm so angry! You guys! They're all waiting for you! If you can't do it, so what? You can't do it in three to five years. I don't believe you can do it in ten years!"
"Hey, hey, let's stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and get Xinghan's test car ready! We just need the last few things. If we work harder this month, we can complete it!"
