Factories that do miscellaneous parts need experienced technicians, very mature technical workers, and good enough equipment to ensure that the next step can be carried out quickly enough after the parts arrive.
And factories with this kind of strength often have the ability to make batch parts. What about small factories? We can’t afford the people and equipment alone, so this is a very contradictory thing, rising to the realm of philosophy.
"Eleven sets of equipment. When we process them overseas, our quotation for each set is US$110,000. This is the FOB price. As long as the price is lower than this, we can do it! There is also a set of spare parts. Among them, several products are our core products and cannot be produced by a factory according to the company's regulations, but..."
Although Lu Lu was not an expert in mechanical processing, he was definitely an expert in business. He paused here. Ji Donglai knew what the other party meant and motioned for the other party to continue.
"How much does Mr. Ji plan to invest in our mobile phone factory? I am very optimistic about the huge domestic market. There are more than one billion people. If only one fifth of the people use mobile phones, our sales volume can support us." retired."
"Moreover, if we launch more tricks in the future, we can gain more market share by relying on our customer base! Also, I'm not kidding, I can really find mobile phone circuit boards, including chips, and I can guarantee they are cheap..."
Lu Lu said that the problem with the mobile phone was that there were little stars in his eyes. Ji Donglai knew the other party's purpose, but was not in a hurry to express his opinion.
After all, in this era, mobile phones are luxury goods, and few people can lower their prices.
Even chipsets dismantled from foreign garbage are extremely expensive to sell on the second-hand market.
"Have you heard of MediaTek?"
Looking at Ji Donglai's silence for a long time, Lu Lu guessed what Ji Donglai meant, and then said a name. Ji Donglai thought in his heart that he had ignored it.
Talking about MediaTek has to be associated with one word: integration.
Until 2001, all mobile phone manufacturers were still designing mobile phone motherboards to be extremely complex. Various functions on the mobile phone required separate chips to complete. This resulted in a very high threshold for mobile phone manufacturing. This led to the creation of a certain domestic miracle phone. PHS was born out of nowhere.
At this time, MediaTek took the lead in proposing the concept of functional integration internally, integrating all functions into one chip, and then cooperated with mobile phone software manufacturers.
Such a mobile phone chipset means that mobile phone equipment manufacturers only need to care about the mobile phone panel and appearance. To put it bluntly, they only need to care about the hardware, simple operating interface and texture.
The rest is all completed by MediaTek chips. To put it bluntly, the boss of this group pioneered the integration of the electronic field and is almost the same boss-level figure as Gang Leader Qiao.
It's just that MediaTek has just started to put forward these things as a concept. In my memory, it didn't officially launch chips until 2003.
At this time, MediaTek was still working on the development of C and V chips, and Ji Donglai repeatedly pondered the various information in his mind.
"A friend of mine told me that MediaTek has just begun to consider the concept of mobile phone chips and has not launched any good chips. Where do you think good motherboards come from?"
After recalling all kinds of information, Ji Donglai turned his attention to Lu Lu. Lu Lu couldn't help but be surprised. He thought that he was indeed a figure favored by the bosses of state-owned enterprises, and he was not on the same level as those ordinary domestic private entrepreneurs.
Of course, the more such a big boss, the more worthy of cooperation, because the other party has a global perspective and can do better.
"Yes, this development process is very long, and many project teams are working on it. They need suitable machine dealers to help with the experiment. Motherboards at this time are almost free. We can have a long time before they launch the official chip. You can eat the dividends.”
"Once they successfully develop it, we will be the first batch of businessmen to enjoy the dividends. Because we have been developing it with this big boss, and the rest of us have not had this process."
"Boss Cai is a big boss we respect. He is an entrepreneur who is willing to spend money. As long as you follow his footsteps, you will not go wrong. You believe me
, we will definitely be able to eat more in the future. "
"Of course, there may be problems with our mobile phones during this process. It's okay. Just return it to her. Or replace it. Boss Cai will help us bear this loss, as long as we dare to do it."
"Being the first to eat crabs may cost you, but it's definitely worth it. When they find other partners, we won't have a chance, what do you think?"
Lu Lu is indeed a person who can travel around the world with a schoolbag on his back. A few words directly hit the point. Ji Donglai has to admire the elites of this era, who are not inferior to those Internet giants who came later. .five
As for investing? Ji Donglai was really moved.
This era is an era of opportunities, and it happens to be a time when many domestic private capitals are timid. Now that I have a little money... why not register an overseas capital, so that as an equipment manufacturer, I can still enjoy huge dividends.
Thinking of this, Ji Donglai picked up the phone and sent a text message to Zhao Shuying, asking him to think about the idea of setting up an offshore fund overseas.
"Give me some time, I need to think about it. Building a factory is not a trivial matter. Now we need to find someone to do it for the mobile phone license, otherwise we won't be able to apply. Also, regarding funding, we need to talk to the fund boss. Let’s talk about it, the last time we applied was BH Capital.”
"This time we need to change our company. We can't let the same capital control our company. In addition, you can't just rely on your own words to persuade me. I need to meet the big leaders of MediaTek, otherwise I won't believe what you say. Do you really understand?"
"This is not because I don't trust your character, Director Lu. This is the first time we have cooperated. I think you can understand what I mean. Nowadays, the quality of products in China is becoming more and more important, and all aspects need to be considered."
"After all, I am in the processing of mechanical equipment. To really do this, I need to find professional talents. Managers are very important! This preparation process will not be short, so let's talk about the processing of this set of chemical equipment first. , what do you think?"
It doesn't take much effort to talk to people who understand. Ji Donglai directly raised the core issue, and Lu Lu was more positive about Ji Donglai in his heart.
Apart from anything else, at least Ji Donglai always maintained enough sense in doing business. He traveled almost all over China with his schoolbag on his back and met too many private capital bosses on land.
