Chapter 1427: Difficult Intel

When Intel finally announced that they had designed a new dual-core low-frequency processor, an awkward scenario was discovered where all PC manufacturers had ordered from the Superpower semiconductor.

Intel assumed that they would design and produce better low-frequency dual-core processors that would inevitably receive large orders, thus suppressing superpower semiconductors in the low-end netbook market.

But it never occurred to them that the market was initially saturated. Although their products performed better, all PC manufacturers seemed to have negotiated the same and did not come to order at all.

Those PC manufacturers can be very smart, and now everyone is the default alliance, which is that they won't sell Intel until the netbooks on the Superpower processor aren't selling much, and the netbooks on the core of this processor aren't selling much, otherwise what about the netbooks on the core of the Superpower processor? Reduce prices again?

If the price goes down again, the hardware manufacturers like Super Vivo make money according to the contract, what about their PC manufacturer? Although it won't lose money, it's not worth it if the profit margin before taxes is less than 3%.

Their brand added value alone should not be so low!

And how many low-frequency dual-core processors does Superway sell? More than 30 million!

I wouldn't dare fill this year's market, but those PC vendors won't order Intel's processors until they sell more than 80 percent of their inventory.

They have to time-lapse the market, and if it's not as big as they think it is, then whoever hoards more is doomed to pay.

Besides, Intel and this processor performs better than the overweight one, but it's also more expensive. For those who buy netbooks, the emphasis is on cheap prices.

Manufacturers are struggling to keep costs down. If you want to lower prices, who wants to increase them?

Besides, the 1GHZ CPU is enough, why replace it with 1.2?

They are temporarily not buying, not placing orders, and will not be able to order again until they have digested this batch of Superpower CPUs. Maybe that's when the CPU price of Intel's 1.2 dropped.

When intelligent and depressing, this side of the Superpower Semiconductor is smiling. When virtually all PC manufacturers ordered this CPU from them, they ostensibly processed this dual-core 1GHZ CPU for sale on other models.

The offer is not very strong, it also greatly increases the volume of this CPU order and increases the sales volume of their other products. At first glance, these PC vendors don't need to pay more than a higher liquidated damages for this order, so it's ok to place an order early.

Even if the order volume is a bit large, they don't care. If the volume is bigger and the price is cheaper, their cost will decrease. Even if it is a little stalled, it can be handled back as an activity. Instead, it can attract consumers with these products.

Super Wei is also intentional, it is a normal means of commercial competition. Give reasonable terms and conditions to hold the customer in your hand. When competitors produce better products, they find that the market is temporarily saturated.

How can PC vendors go to Intel to place a new order when the order on Superway's side is already at the end of the year?

It doesn't matter if there are more CPUs that perform well, but these CPUs are only suitable for use on this low-cost netbook, and no other products are needed.

The ultraviolet technique plunged Intel into the embarrassment of designing this product but not selling it.

But Superpower Semiconductor still underestimated Intel's determination, and Intel quickly announced that their new low-frequency dual-core CPU had dropped its price when none of its orders had been sold!

Even if the prices are low, the profits are low, and they don't even make money, Intel admits it. They can't watch the Super Visual Semiconductor get big, they want to make sure they're still the leader of the processor.

As long as market share is guaranteed, Intel will continue to be loved by consumers, even because of habits.

This allows them to reduce the market share of Superpower Semiconductors and reduce the sales volume and profitability of each other, thus reducing the speed of research and development of each other's products.

When Feng Yu found this difficult, he said that there was nothing to worry about. Once again, they sued Intel for dumping and unfair competition.

They say that Intel sells new products, including R&D and production costs, at current prices, which is a loss of money, which is obvious dumping behavior!

Super Wei and Intel are too familiar with each other, and they can probably figure out how much it costs. Intel, of course, doesn't sell in discounts, and Super Wei is just looking for trouble for Intel.

It's like Super Velocity is selling much better than Intel at this time. Instead of making excuses to sue Super Velocity.

Now the impression that Superpower gives consumers and PC manufacturers is that it's superior to Intel on dual-core processors. And Intel has no objection, and dual-core or even multi-core is the direction of future CPUs.

So a lot of software at this time is optimized for dual cores. And at that point, Super Wei took advantage.

Super Wei has also increased its publicity on this point, constantly saying its strengths. Now Intel wants to outweigh Super Power in this respect, of course Super Power cannot agree.

These ways of competing, Feng Yu is not very good at it, there are too many doorways inside. Super Vigilante also said that doing so would only slow down Intel's product sales, but eventually they would have to perform better CPUs to really win.

They are now designing a low-pressure CPU with a more sophisticated product architecture, and when this product is made, Intel will surely fail on the netbook CPU.

Netbooks have high requirements for low energy consumption, which Superpower intends to do best. And also on the head of the product, shrink again. Even if the group wanted the new netbooks to be thinner and lighter, they naturally had to design their products according to their customers' requirements.

Now the netbook, in Feng Yu's view, is still not doing well enough, performance and so on. The netbook before Feng Yu was reborn is much better, and it is much lighter and thinner, especially in terms of price, and can do less than RMB 1,000 yuan, so the cost of production is about $100.

And now, the cost is still over $300, so Feng Yu says there's still a lot of room for improvement.

Hardware accessories, software vendors and manufacturers are demanding that they work together to keep costs so low.

However, it has also been argued that a netbook of less than a thousand dollars in a previous life, a tablet with a keyboard, is not a real notebook at all.

But Feng Yu himself attaches more importance to R&D of tablets, which is one of the future sales explosions.
