What will the form of smartphones look like in the future?
Folding screen left and right, folding screen up and down, or full screen?
These designs all have a crucial or even decisive factor - screen quality.
Thin, high yield, strong display performance, and the ability to implement under-screen fingerprint scanners and under-screen cameras, it will allow full-screen displays to capture the market.
The flexible screen has strong softness, high cutting success rate, controllable cost, and no obvious display traces after being folded tens of thousands of times. Then it can allow folding screens to dominate the high-end smartphone market.
Some people may say that wearable smart devices will replace mobile phones.
But when Gu Qing saw the latest screen made in the laboratory, he would tell these people.
“The communication capabilities of mobile phones cannot be replaced by wearable devices for the time being.”
Yes, the new screen was rolled up like a pamphlet in his hands.
Unlike paper rolls like homework books, this new screen has a certain resistance and will not deform after being fixed at an angle.
After playing with it like a burrito for a while, Gu Qingcai asked Li You beside him: "What are the parameters of this screen?"
Li You touched his upward hairline, opened the file in his hand and said happily: "It's very good, it even exceeded the expectations of our R&D team.
Parameters such as contrast, viewing angle, resolution DPI, pixel density PPI, response time, and color gamut are far beyond those of mid-range screens, and are already comparable to those of Korean stars.
It’s just that there is not much display data at present, so the color accuracy still needs to be adjusted. As for the yield rate, the laboratory’s current yield rate is gradually increasing from 50%. It is expected that after the technology is proficient and the various parameters of the equipment are optimized, it can be improved to About eighty percent. "
Boss Gu, Lao Huai, nodded happily, and then asked the most critical question.
"What is the estimated mass production cost of this screen?"
Selling something is naturally sensitive to the cost of the thing.
Li You stopped flipping through the documents this time, and replied as if he was familiar with the details: "The screen in your hand is 8 inches, 2480x2200 pixels. If mass-produced, it is expected that the cost of each screen can be controlled within one thousand.
Of course, the premise is that the screen raw material processing plant is built and we are self-sufficient. If we use the fully intelligent production workshop of the semiconductor department, we may be able to further control the cost and reduce it to 900 yuan. "
"Nine hundred yuan?"
Someone Gu still remembers that a few months ago, at the MWC19 Xiawei terminal global conference, Xiawei officially released XIAWEI Mate X. The folding screen of this folding phone uses an 8-inch screen.
Although the price was not given, the official repair quotation given by Xia Wei in the previous world was 7,080 yuan, which is equivalent to a Mate digital series flagship phone.
Of course, you get what you pay for. It is said that this screen uses an aerospace-grade polymer flexible screen, which is 40% stronger than ordinary screens. It is not only more malleable, but also has a very impressive yield rate.
It is worth mentioning that Xiawei’s screen supplier is said to be Beijing North.
Boss Gu speculated over and over in his mind, and finally gave up on the idea of grabbing Beijing North's business.
Beijing North has been producing mid-range screens for so many years. To help Xia help it achieve a truly top position, it would be unsightly to intervene on its own.
So what else can this screen do?
Make a TV computer screen?
It looks pretty good, and we can also let Xia Xin Technology manufacture TV chips at home, but if we want a large-size screen, the research and development time will increase.
Alas, I have a good screen, how should I use it?
What a happy trouble.
However, the project is generally considered a success, and the human resources of the semiconductor department need to be concentrated on developing quantum chips.
"It's not bad. You don't need to worry about screen calibration data. You and the people temporarily brought in by the quantum chip project team can go back to the quantum chip R&D project team. Other laboratories in our company can take over the remaining R&D work on the screen.
You save the R&D reports and project data to [Jianbei]'s cloud database, and they can continue to start R&D within a week.
Ranwen
Of course, you deserve no less reward,”
After appeasing his workers, the refreshed Boss Gu contacted Luo Songtang and Factory Director Luo, whom he hadn't seen for a while.
"I read your report. The establishment of the beverage and food factory is going smoothly, right?"
Director Luo on the other end of the phone looked at the brand new factory and said with an honest smile: "It's all arranged well by the company. The equipment suppliers and construction engineering teams have all been contacted. The relevant local departments have also given the green light. If everything goes well, it is expected to be completed in July." After the worker training is completed, production can be officially put into operation.”
The longer he worked at Jiuzhou Technology Company, the more in awe he became of the young man in front of him.
The attitude of the leaders of the relevant local departments towards me was beyond description. The area for the beverage and food factory had been planned early, and the documents were processed extremely quickly.
He has lived half his life. What company can let the local government treat him like this?
"Then I'll take a look at it at noon tomorrow. After all, the company is still very optimistic about this branch's project."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
The next day.
In the suburbs, ten kilometers away from the Jiuzhou Science and Technology Park, a large food and beverage factory was built in less than half a year.
Cui Kai and Luo Songtang were already waiting for Gu Qing outside the factory, and after greeting him for a few words, they welcomed him into the factory.
Boss Gu ignored the workers in training and went to the production workshop immediately. The equipment on the production line was all brand new, and there was a tightly closed production room in the middle.
After putting on dustproof clothing and scanning their fingerprints and IDs, Gu Qing, Luo Songtang and others walked into the observation channel of the production room.
"The most important thing in this factory is the safety of workers and the maintenance safety of this production room. Manager Luo and Manager Cui, I can give you a thorough explanation. The equipment in this production room is currently the most expensive equipment in our Jiuzhou Technology Company. Please be careful with it.
My principle is that you should know that for the benefits you enjoy, you need to have corresponding responsibilities and obligations. "Gu Qing pointed to the equipment in the production room and said seriously.
Cui Kai and Luo Songtang naturally nodded in unison.
The more responsibilities you can take on for the company, the more attention you will receive.
Within Jiuzhou Technology Company, the higher the level of attention, the higher the treatment.
For example, new R&D personnel with a monthly salary of just over 10,000 yuan will soon be motivated by bonuses as long as they follow the R&D project team, study hard and keep up with R&D progress.
Gu Qing also emphasized the concept of distribution according to work in management meetings more than once. No one turned a deaf ear to the young boss's words.
It should be noted that those who ignored the young boss’s words some time ago have already gone in to pick up soap.
