Although the two big brothers are not well-known in the field of ordinary people's consumption, their resumes are very good. These news were forwarded by Xiahua News Agency and other official media, causing a wave of waves for a while.

"The command system is complete. It does not depend on anything or anyone. The entire industrial ecology depends on it!"

"Although I'm a bit of a loser, I still want to say: 'Those things that don't kill us will only make us stronger!!!'"

"Labour and management are like Explosive Rabbits today. Domestic memory is now of top quality. Although Loongson has not become popular among ordinary people, I am only in my twenties and can afford it!"

But it seems that they have been oppressed for too long, and the manufacturers who are stepping forward this time are becoming more and more fierce.

For example, Xia Wei has already broken up with the other side of the ocean, so he doesn't plan to create a brand image of a modest gentleman, or is he taking this opportunity to create a wave of brand popularity?

It is indeed difficult to break through technical barriers in the short term. Many restrictions have caused Xia Wei's new M series phones to be late. When the new generation P series was announced, it even stated that it would sell stock chips. There has been no news about the Mate 50 series that was supposed to be released in September, and many pollen are also looking forward to it. Summer is the arrival of new opportunities. After all, after Xia Wei was restricted, major mobile phone manufacturers began to exert their efforts. Pingguo even directly launched a price reduction strategy, seizing a lot of the mobile phone market that Xia Wei had freed up due to purchase restrictions.

Yu Chengdong faced the media's criticism and said bluntly: "Xiawei Mate50 is being tested. There are two test prototypes, using Kirin 9000/9000+ and another domestic chip respectively. In addition, the test prototype still has 5G and Xia Wei cannot beat the two 4G versions. From straight screen to curved screen, from folding to curling, Xia Wei has been making progress. Although Mate 50 will be late, it will not be absent!"

As soon as this interview came out, it immediately attracted a lot of traffic clicks, and the momentum was so great that other domestic mobile phone manufacturers were both greedy and afraid.

What I am greedy for is the brand appeal, but what I am afraid of is also the brand appeal. If Xia Wei follows Pingguo's example and lowers the price of the flagship mid-range model to a price of four to five thousand yuan, I am afraid that there will be another Mate 30 sales frenzy. .

After all, Suiren Company's Jiaolong mobile phone is very powerful, but the price is not affordable for ordinary people. And with the sales of two generations of Jiaolong mobile phones, domestic mobile phone manufacturers have roughly figured out Suiren Company's approach.

While the chip production capacity is insufficient, it also designs dual chips, and the hardware such as screens and cameras is stacked too high. It is obvious that it is making the world's most high-end top-end mobile phones. This kind of extreme differentiation is actually not much different from ordinary users' smartphones. coincide.

Xia Wei has made this statement, and as someone who wants to defeat Xia Wei, he will naturally not remain indifferent.

Although Rice uses Qualcomm chips, it also cooperates with MediaTek.

Now Lei Jun is already a master of building cars on the surface, so Lu Bing, the former president of Gionee Mobile Phones and now the president of Daxia District and International Department of Rice, has become the publicity mouth.

Facing the many media invited by Rice, Lu Bing said seriously and solemnly: "As the first manufacturer to announce the use of Dimensity's latest chips, Rice will naturally use this flagship chip in its high-end products, the K50 series There will be a version equipped with China’s top mobile phone processing chip Dimensity, and the top version of this series will use a 120Hz 2K screen and a Sony IMX 766 sensor for the main camera. Of course, the price will be as sincere as ever.”

The K50 series is the flagship of Redmi. In order to launch Qualcomm chips, rice and Qualcomm are deeply bound. Naturally, it is impossible to put Dimensity chips on the flagship of the rice digital series. However, Mr. Lei’s idea of ​​​​making money has never declined, so it came into being. Raw red rice is the representative of rice’s many ideas.

Dimensity is a chip made by MediaTek, and MediaTek is a company in Ryukyu Province. Naturally, it is also made in China, so this wave of popularity is still based on ideas.

Friends and businessmen cannot bear to see Xia Wei and Da Mi clearly understand the traffic flow with their statements.

Watching others make a lot of money and get a lot of traffic is even more uncomfortable than losing money yourself!

And although rice was the first to announce that it would use the Dimensity 9000, the president of Opo felt something strange when he touched his head.

It’s clear that the agreement negotiated is for Opo to launch the Dimensity 9000. Why is the executive of Rice so shameless in his campaign? And MediaTek didn’t even hold a product launch conference, so he blew himself up?

After thinking about this, Mr. Chen took the initiative to contact the CEO of MediaTek and mentioned the matter.

MediaTek's senior management was also a little confused at this time. They had negotiated an order with Da Mi, but now the chips are still manufactured by TSMC, and the product launch conference is planned to be held some time later. Why is Da Mi so unruly?

A senior executive said: "But Mr. Cai, Rice just said that it will use the latest Dimensity chip. Lu Bing did not mention Dimensity 9000 by name..."

After hearing this, Mr. Cai took a deep breath.

Another executive analyzed: "Dimensity 9000 is the world's first 4nm chip, the first ARMV9 architecture chip, and the first ARM X2 CPU core chip. It is also a new process standard developed by TSMC due to its inability to complete the 3nm task. Although The current production capacity is not enough, but we are already in OEM production, and we cannot really refuse the exposure of mobile phone manufacturers such as rice. From the side, this is also a good opportunity to announce products."

Mr. Cai was noncommittal about this.

It's not that he doesn't want to take a stand, it's actually a matter of great importance. At least it's just a rice announcement issue, and more importantly, whether TSMC's next-generation advanced process will be given to MediaTek, a company that is prone to trouble.

MediaTek's senior management is struggling, but they don't know that Qualcomm, TSMC and even Korean stars are also struggling at this time.

In terms of chip manufacturing processes, TSMC has always been ahead of all chip foundry manufacturers, and leads the way in both manufacturing processes and production capacity.

Han Xing Semiconductor has been chasing after so many years, but Qualcomm is still hot, so it does a good job in memory, but it is also being caught up by Daxia memory manufacturers.

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

TSMC is so powerful because of its own factors, but there are also reasons why Uncle Sam considers to check and balance Korean stars and Neon, and specifically supports them. Therefore, TSMC can get so much share of the most advanced AS-ML lithography machines in the Netherlands every time.

That is to say, because of the geographical relationship and the relatively harmonious situation between Daxia and Uncle Sam five years ago, Xia Wei was able to get on the TSMC bus relatively smoothly and implement the design of HiSilicon Kirin.

But now that the list has been completely implemented, Xia Wei has no way to get another ride, so he completely switches to Xia Xin Technology.

But even if Xia Wei leaves, TSMC will still have Pingguo Lafayette to take care of him.

Pingguo has always been ahead of other manufacturers in the field of mobile phone chips. Even in the field of computer tablets, Pingguo is about to get rid of the shackles of Intel. All of this is inseparable from its "harmonious relationship" with TSMC. .
