2019 was a year full of drama.
The samples and reports brought back by Anhetang prove that the world is not the broken ball it once was.
Although water pollution by impurities is still serious, some deadly germs do not exist, so Boss Gu's psychological pressure has been relieved a lot.
However, the requirement that foreign users who use bionic mechanical prostheses in the Jiuzhou Science and Technology Park in Chengdu must be quarantined for seven days has not been lifted.
The establishment of the system did not change overnight, and the isolation measures did help a lot.
Within a few months, the people involved in Aiya Mei's affairs were put on a plane leaving Chengdu directly after being quarantined.
Daxia has long refused to introduce foreign garbage and the like.
In addition, various dramas regarding technology companies have also begun to unfold.
Initially, considering supply chain issues, Xiawei had two screen suppliers for Mate 20, one was Korean Star and the other was Beijing Northern.
In those days of Han Xing, there was a fire in the memory factory, which caused considerable losses along with the lithography machines. Therefore, in order to build new factories and new industrial lines, Xia Wei, who was a big order maker, greeted them with a smile.
When it comes to making money, as long as you give enough, then no problem is a problem.
As for Beijing North Screen, it is more about supporting domestic production and adjusting the characteristics of domestic screens. If Beijing North Screen Technology becomes the world's top in the future, Xia Wei has this technical reserve and can directly crush other peer manufacturers. cut.
In the long run, these two preparations are extremely strategic.
But from the current point of view, since there are two screen suppliers, there is a phenomenon of mixed use of screens.
At the same price, some users buy products made by Korean Star, while others buy products made by Jingbo North.
Some consumers are not used to whether you are domestically produced or not. For them, if the product is not good, it is not good. Even if you are decades behind and desperately trying to catch up to the front line, as long as you can't compare with the best, it is a failure.
Therefore, Beijing North’s screen has become a major “failure” of Mate 20 among many people.
But things are now turning around.
One of the big dramas at the beginning of the new year: Xia Wei received specific "treatment" from several countries led by the United States.
The indictment against Xia Wei was announced, including 23 counts of suspected intellectual property theft, obstruction of justice, and suspected fraud to evade sanctions.
Since then, the intensity of suppression has been increasing, and some countries have even begun to ban the use of Xiawei's network equipment.
Although Xiawei Company has always denied any wrongdoing and is asserting its own rights through appeal.
But in the short time it takes, the judicial appeal process is undoubtedly a long march. Although it is in the right direction, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive and requires great perseverance. If something goes wrong along the way, it will be completely ruined.
Those technology companies that have just gone public and have a market value of tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars are taking action after hearing the news.
Such as rice companies.
Although Rice Company now has a wide range of businesses, including smart home and rice selection projects, it is "strengthening OEM", but its main business and foundation is still rice mobile phones.
Even though Mr. Lei has been saying that DaMi is an Internet company, the suppression of Xia Wei caused a shock to the mobile phone manufacturers in Xia State.
The stock price of Rice Company, which was listed not long ago, fell a lot.
However, Mr. Lei is also an understanding person. He later held a press conference to explain the story of the rice "industry chain" to major media and consumers. After seeing that the former executives of Qualcomm and Korean Star were among the current executives of the rice company, The market responded very quickly and began to rise continuously, eventually reaching a market value of HK$5338.65, equivalent to US$68.024 billion.
Some other companies have followed suit and announced the suppliers of their flagship phones, which is somewhat disappointing.
Xia Wei is the only first-tier manufacturer that uses Beijing North Screen for its flagship phones.
Mobile phone memory is basically made by Korean, British and American manufacturers.
Although domestically produced products have related products, their technical capabilities and yield rate cannot be compared with those of these first-tier companies.
High-end manufacturing cannot be solved by attracting investment.
Patented technology, professional equipment, special production processes, and mature technical talents, none of these most important things are easy to solve.
As for real "big Internet companies" like Penguin and Ali, the high-end manufacturing turmoil related to mobile phones cannot affect them at present.
After all, you buy a mobile phone and you need to use it.
Without Penguin's software, we would lose the largest online social circle, convenient payment and entertainment industry.
Without Ali's software, "convenient online payment" and the convenience of major related shopping and takeout industries will be lost.
In such a bloody time, some greedy companies will naturally not be absent.
Last year, due to the loss of the semiconductor market, the chip foundry process was blocked by the fire, resulting in half a step behind TSMC.
Relying on the profits of Daxia mobile phone manufacturers, the global Korean star mobile phone market, and the production and life of the Korean people, Korean stars quickly recovered.
So I see that Xia Wei is being suppressed, and other mobile phone manufacturers in Daxia are so dependent on their own screens.
After waiting and watching for a period of time, under the instructions of the capital behind the board of directors, and after completing the minimum supply requirements for the first quarter written in the contract, the number of Korean star screens that Xiawei could purchase began to decrease significantly. (The actual composition of Korean Star Company has been discussed before, so I won’t go into details here.)
…
The dilemma facing Xia Wei's company is like a trapped beast still fighting.
Domestic supply chain manufacturers are unable to supply high-quality screens in a short period of time due to their short technology development time and insufficient patent technology reserves.
Foreign supply chains are again monopolized by relevant interest groups.
Like a warrior, it started fighting.
Although it feels like a misfortune, facts speak louder than words.
At present, only Xia Wei, a domestic mobile phone manufacturer, has large and truly useful intellectual property rights.
Yu Chengdong spends all day dealing with official duties, and his hairline moves further and further back.
Gu Qing felt angry as he watched the old guys who were leading the charge being bruised and bruised by Korean star product restrictions and legal disputes.
When young people are angry, they need to vent their anger.
So on a sunny day in March, in the office of Jiuzhou Technology Semiconductor Department, there were dark clouds at the moment, and it seemed like a thunderstorm was brewing.
Li You and others were sitting on office chairs, sitting upright and not daring to breathe.
They have been in contact with Gu Qing for a long time, and naturally they know that when their boss has a blank face, it is when certain people or certain forces are going to be in trouble.
"A dog is an animal, and you can't expect a beast to never show its teeth."
Gu Qing suddenly said this.
Naturally, the others who were waiting carefully did not miss the content.
Listening to him talking about the dog, and then thinking about his boss's views on certain forces, Li You and others felt that they might have understood the spirit of today's meeting.
