Just as the house leak coincides with the continuous rain, after Korean Star issued the announcement, foreign media Reuters also exposed that Korean Star and Hynix will no longer be able to provide mobile phone storage chips for Xia Wei's mobile phones outside the contract after the contract orders are completed.
Then someone came up with a list of Xia Wei's suppliers and pointed out that Xia Wei's mid-to-high-end smartphones have been using screens from three manufacturers: LGD, Korean Star, and Beijing North. Two of them will cut off supply. This will have a negative impact on Xia Wei's mobile phone business. It was undoubtedly a heavy blow.
Amid this series of bad news, Xiawei's domestic mobile phone market, after a brief downturn, broke out into a frenzy of consumer purchases.
Executives such as Yu Chengdong and Xu Qujun also had to face the strange and volatile market, and frequently refuted rumors and popularized their own supply chain problems in the media.
"Hanxing Display only supplies high-end folding screens to Xia Wei and temporarily stopped supplying them. However, the supply of screens such as Mate digital series and P series is currently not affected.
Moreover, before Hanxing stopped supplying, Xiawei already had sufficient inventory of folding screen panels, and LGD's supply to Xiawei has always been limited. We can easily obtain sufficient screen supply through Beijing North.
Therefore, consumers currently do not have to worry about the supply of Mate X. "
Although Yu Chengdong was calm and composed, Gu Qing sighed after seeing this interview.
Xia Wei used to not make money from the mobile phone business, but now and then, after shipping hundreds of millions per year, the proportion of the mobile phone business has long surpassed other projects.
The former kings of mobile phones, Motorola and Nokia, all made decisions on their own, took the wrong path, and then directly lost the market to others.
But Xia Wei was the only one who was put on the list and forced by certain forces to leave the smartphone industry.
What bullshit freedom and equality.
When it is needed, it is freedom and equality; when it is not needed, it is direct gangster logic.
In today's era of globalization, no smartphone company can have a completely independent supply chain for high-end products, not even within a country.
Korean Star has its own screen and chip foundry technology, but does it dare to have its own operating system? Does that barren little piece of land hold special metal mineral resources?
As for Pingguo Company, in March this year, Pingguo updated the list of the top 200 suppliers. Among them, there were 46 companies belonging to Daxia, and America and Neon ranked second with 38 companies.
So no company can survive alone.
This is true even if Jiuzhou Technology currently wants to make mobile phones.
Business is not like the military.
The military doesn't care what you do about the patent law. If you have a goal and a direction, just rush forward.
Business has too many restrictions, and everyone has to compete on a chessboard according to the rules.
Originally this was considered fair, after all there were rules.
But I can’t stand that one of the players playing chess now is a bad chess player and always makes some foul moves.
However, as time went by, market sentiment began to ease due to the efforts of many parties.
Korean stars don’t want to be too extreme, as this will affect the current short-term cooperation interests between other Daxia manufacturers and themselves.
The noses of other domestic manufacturers are not bad either. No matter what the executives have in mind, some things have been really exposed.
The Daxia Software Development Alliance finally held its second important meeting.
Present at the meeting were manufacturers such as Rice and Opo that rely heavily on the global supply chain, as well as Xia Wei, who is currently having a hard time, and of course Jiuzhou Technology Company, the technology provider of the Software Development Alliance.
Not doing useless things has always been Gu Qing's code of conduct.
So at the second meeting of senior executives, Vice President Dong was present at Jiuzhou Technology.
An executive who does not understand technology can naturally avoid technical language restrictions and strive for sufficient benefits for himself.
At the meeting, Vice President Dong could be described as "talking with the crowd". Taking the "confidential documents" provided by Boss Gu, he analyzed the mobile phone systems of rice and other companies, and finally got to the critical point.
"We must not only provide technical support to the alliance, but also take care of the various limitations of everyone's mobile phone systems, so the number of votes we need from Jiuzhou Technology must be the first share."
Originally, some people were unconvinced and wanted to slam the table.
But after much deliberation, the proposal was finally approved by all the big guys.
After learning the news, Boss Gu was very happy and said: "We work for the landlord during the busy farming season, and the landlord has to take care of two meals. We don't want to work in vain.
Let's be strong, eat more, and let those poor people be jealous. "
Strategically, we despise the enemy, but tactically we value the enemy.
Human Resources Director Zhang Yuanfeng will receive an updated list from the President's Office every three days and arrange corresponding matters.
The research team of the semiconductor department that Li Yougang was responsible for gradually expanded from three digits to four digits, and there were many big names among them. This also led to Li Yougang's somewhat arrogant demeanor, and he became humble in an instant.
The software engineering department is currently controlled by Gu Qing, so although there are more and more people, no technical boss dares to offend him.
It's not even right to say it's offensive. Boss Gu also met his "fans", the kind who are a little bit brainless.
It is said that there are many straight men engaged in technology. In fact, it is because they are preoccupied with technical fields and do not invest much energy in other aspects, so their emotional intelligence appears to be uneven.
For example, now.
"Teacher, artificial big data also requires feedback from the parties involved before it can be adjusted. However, if you look at it in terms of ratings, evaluations or feedback, it is too simple. Moreover, comparing the systems of Daimi and Xiawei, their update frequency and actual results are far less. It’s not as good as major updates every quarter, and it also creates redundant system file junk.”
Zhang Benyu wore black-rimmed glasses, frowned slightly and asked Gu Qing questions.
As a thirty-year-old man, every time he asked Gu Qing a question, his attitude was very respectful.
But Gu Qing knew that this young man had posted his photo in his room behind his back, like a fan looking at an idol...
He does not advocate personality worship, but his leadership in technology is indeed a fact, so he can only choose to be Zhang Benyu's teacher for the time being.
“Dami’s MIUI is updated once a week, and Xiawei’s system is updated once every half a month or once a month.
This is actually quite normal, as is Microsoft’s normal update frequency.
Applying patches to fix vulnerabilities, adding small functions, and making some personalized customizations all require constant follow-up.
Of course, the main reason is that the core of their system does not have real learning intelligence. At best, it only has a set of algorithms for data capture and statistical deletion.
Just like building a house, the core framework limits the development of the system. The technicians behind it can only build bricks and decorate the inside and outside of the building if they are better, and rougher if they are worse.
But none of them were able to knock down the load-bearing walls and modify the main layout of the building.
In comparison, this is one of the advantages of our Gonggong system. The core framework has enough room for expansion, the internal logic is more intelligent, and it has real learning capabilities. "
After teaching a document he wrote to the future successor of the software engineering department, Boss Gu left the software engineering department.
The cooperation with Xia Wei is really better to arrive early than to arrive late.
There was a lot of external pressure, and some internal executives who were still hesitant immediately chose to put more eggs in one basket.
The name of Suiren Co., Ltd.'s first high-end smart personal mobile terminal has been decided.
Suiren X1.
The appearance design is not foldable, nor is it a rigid tablet or sliding cover, but a true "custom design".
Thanks to the cross-generation screen materials and the strong plasticity of the flexible screen panel, Suiren X1 can not only provide the most original scroll design, users can also choose a folding design, and this folding is not a single inward folding or outward folding, or It is folded twice.
It’s the user who chooses how to fold it, just like origami. However, it is limited by the screen material. In order to ensure that the folded screen has sufficient hardness, it can only be folded twice at most, which is better than all the current ones on the market. Folding screen phones have one more screen overlap.
The display project has begun production, and the screen inventory will reach 300,000 pieces by the end of the fourth quarter.
Of course, Suiren Company placed an order for each screen at a price of 5,000 yuan, for a total purchase price of 1.5 billion yuan.
The advance payment is 30%, which means that Jiuzhou Technology's current account has an increase of 450 million Xia Yuan.
The money was provided by Suiren Company, but if you look closely, it was provided by Xia Wei Company, which was very wealthy.
After all, Gu Qing's position at the time was very clear. Technology and products could be exclusively supplied and invested, and money could be asked for. No need to discuss more than one billion.
Of course, due to the special nature of Suiren Company, all procurement expenditures, as long as they are products of Jiuzhou Technology and Xiawei Company, only require advance payment.
Xia Wei was not very satisfied at first, but Gu Qing later provided a mobile phone system called Gonggong, which instantly convinced Xia Wei and all the executives.
They directly provide a free smartphone system, equipped with the Jiuzhou compiler, which can be simultaneously compatible with Android and Pingguo mobile software.
Isn’t this worth billions or even tens of billions?
Of course, being stimulated by this system, Xia Wei simultaneously provided the CPU of HiSilicon Kirin 990 5G.
This is the first time that Xia Wei has provided its most advanced chips to a company that is not controlled by Xia Wei.
After getting the chip, Gu Qing led the R&D personnel of the two companies to run the system first.
The results were gratifying, but also embarrassing.
The Gonggong system, which has not been localized and optimized for CPU performance, actually runs more smoothly than Xiawei's own system, releasing 5% more hardware performance...
Amid everyone's exclamations, Boss Gu called Mr. Ren's personal phone number.
Then he said that this chip is great. I think the new lithography machine that Shanghai Microelectronics is developing may be ready for trial production.
Although the cost is a bit high, this technology is feasible.
Mr. Ren was naturally excited, and Xia Wei's executives were on a business trip to Shanghai Microelectronics that day.
The CPU, screen, radio frequency chip, and image control chip are all solved, and there is also a memory chip that accounts for the majority.
Thanks to the joint efforts of the two executives, Dajiang Storage and Unisplendour have become the main suppliers.
Ziguang Group has been having a tough time recently.
With a debt of hundreds of billions, if you are unlucky, you may be on the verge of bankruptcy.
It is obvious that there are serious problems in the capital chain of Ziguang Group. However, the projects in the hands of Ziguang Group are basically high-end and promising projects, so others are not worried about Ziguang Group's insolvency.
However, since the projects in the hands of Unisplendour Group are all high-quality projects, how could it reach the point of reaching a debt of 100 billion?
Without him, it would be the same as Han Xing's performance, taking too big a step and losing his temper.
Buy technology, buy companies, buy production equipment.
While exerting too much force, it failed to integrate resources well and develop advantageous projects, so its debts were high and its profits were not much.
Gu Qing is not opposed to buying technology. After all, simply taking the path of research and development requires too much time and human resources. However, he looks down on Ziguang Group. After buying technology and enterprises, it is like a cook who buys kitchen utensils and runs away without practicing his cooking skills. Come out to cook and open a restaurant.
Precisely in order to reduce constraints, Gu Qing led the Titanstar department to build several intelligent unmanned production lines. In addition to producing small components such as mobile phone speakers, it can also be used for motherboard SMT assembly.
The mobile phone motherboard is the same as the computer motherboard. It is the carrier through which the functional hardware of the mobile phone communicates with each other and provides power to each hardware.
Therefore, many functional hardware are assembled and integrated on the motherboard. Once the motherboard is broken, most of the other hardware is considered scrapped.
The R&D personnel in the Titan Star department are basically all men with hardware engineering degrees. With the addition of advanced robotic arms, the time it takes to implement a product idea into product production will often be reduced by more than half compared to normal R&D time.
Of course, this is also a hard work for the people in the Construction Engineering Department. The construction of the Jiuzhou Park has never stopped. The man carrying the bucket at the construction site has almost circled Chengdu...
The money given is high, but the requirements are high and the construction period is strictly controlled, which is completely unacceptable to some people who are idle and like to work hard.
"The European area has been handed over to Bloomberg. He got started quite quickly. I have been helping him for a month, and I will go to Neon to develop the market in September."
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
On the phone, Huang Chaoren was reporting the situation.
"Thank you for your hard work. I will ask the security department to arrange two teams to be responsible for your personal safety in Neon. Don't worry, we will definitely provide you with close protection 24/7."
Huang Chaoren on the other end of the phone was so moved that he choked up when he heard Gu Qing's "meticulous and considerate" arrangements.
"I just want to experience the customs and customs of the neon island country, so I don't need to bother the brothers from the security department to protect them 24 hours a day..."
Gu Qing's tone immediately became serious.
"Comrade Huang Chaoren, the international situation has been so turbulent recently. As an executive of our company in a foreign country, the company has the obligation and must ensure your personal safety.
Safety is the biggest thing. I would rather you work slower, and I hope you can come back safely and have hot pot with us.
That's it, I'm a little busy here, let's talk back. "
When Huang Chaoren heard this, he was speechless and choked up.
"I, I, I just want to go to which one..."
