Chapter 654 Chip Offensive Alliance

“In fact, I've done a lot of things these days, and I've invested in a chip fund with my own funds, and I intend to invest in the chip industry.

In addition, I am acquiring shares in China Core International. In a few days, Qualcomm will sign a replacement order for Snapdragon 410 chips with China Core International. I believe that China Core International and the chip-producing industry will have a rapid development opportunity for some time to come. ”Fang Zhe said in plain tone.

Mr Ray's mouth grew wider, and Emotion Fang Zhe was Fang Zhe. There were so many big moves before it dripped.

Invest in a chip fund? Don't think, Ray always knows the size of the fund, I'm afraid it's scary.

Acquiring China Core International shares? Listening to Fang Zhe's tone, the matter should be progressing steadily.

Qualcomm handed Snapdragon 410's replacement order to China Core International? Fang Zhe said that the clouds were light, but if there was no Fang Zhe's credit here, Ray wouldn't believe a word.

That is the order of Snapdragon 410. As a hand of Xiaomi, he naturally knows the Snapdragon chips. Snapdragon 410 is a chip specially designed by Qualcomm for low-end smartphones of several hundred yuan.

Today, including Xiaomi's new generation of Redmi, Zhongxing, Huawei, Vivo, Oppo, HTC and other major domestic mobile phone brands that will be launched next year, as well as Motorola and other foreign mobile phone brands that will be launched next year, the design of low-end mobile phones has been determined to be equipped with Snapdragon 410 chips, QUALCOMM also early sent the relevant technical parameters and samples of Snapdragon 410 to several major machine manufacturers for testing.

That is, according to preliminary estimates, the order quantity of Snapdragon 410 is at least tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of pieces. If such a large order quantity is handed over to China Core International, it will be China Core International and the entire continental chip manufacturer. The first large-scale production closely follows the commercial chip demand of the market. It is self-evident that the significance of China Core International and the entire continental chip industry.

Mr Lei really wanted to understand what magic Fang Zhe used. He actually asked Qualcomm to hand over Snapdragon 410's replacement order to Zhongxi International. He should know that in the past, Qualcomm could not see the domestic chip substitution factory of the three dates at all.

“Qualcomm?" Ray always wanted to stop. Fang Zhenming understood what he wanted to ask and explained:

“You are like several mobile phone manufacturers in China. You are a fan of the authorities. Instead, I am a bystander Qing, Qualcomm has been crossing the international scene for so many years. In these two years, China has promoted the construction of 4G. It is also imagining the 3G era. It is holding our lifeblood, and now it is being checked. The paper tiger is exposed. I am a fox fake tiger drinking around. It is naturally panicked and said anything.

Moreover, Qualcomm is also keen to ease the relationship with the above. The central gift looks big, but for Qualcomm, what is it? If China Core International can always get orders from Qualcomm in the future, that's what it is. Now, at best, it's because of the situation. ”

President Lei listened to Fangchul's explanation. He also understood that the matter was not as complicated as he thought. It was just that he and Xiaomi had always been pinned down by Qualcomm's chip. He had made Qualcomm invisible as a high-end and climbing object in his heart.

Fang Zhe is right. He and several major domestic mobile phone manufacturers are indeed too respectful and even afraid of Qualcomm.

But what can we do? This is the case in the mobile chip industry. Who else can we count on besides Qualcomm and MediaTek? Huawei Kirin series? Not to mention whether Huawei is willing to sell to a few of their competitors, he is honored to be the marketing means to rub Xiaomi's heat on his face. President Lui and Xiaomi do not want to buy Huawei's chips!

This is not only about face and money, but also about corporate competition. If the risk probability of Xiaomi being stuck to the neck of the chip by Qualcomm is 50%, then being stuck to the neck of the chip by Huawei, the risk of Xiaomi goes straight to 100%!

Competition among domestic mobile phone manufacturers is such a reality!

However, if Fang Zhe can make a chip and make a mobile phone chip that can keep up with the times, the relationship between Xiaomi and Fang Zhe can't be better. All of a sudden, Lui Zhe made a chip in his heart and raised a lot of expectations.

Unfortunately, General Ray's expectations are doomed to fail. Fang Zhe only intends to support the chip industry, but he never thought that he would make mobile chips again. At least now, he doesn't have this idea. The first priority right now is to raise the whole domestic chip industry. If the industry can't get up, even if he wants to make good chips, he can only look forward to sighing.

“Fang Zhe, you do well, I trust you, when you make the chip in the future, we Xiaomi will be your first customer.” Ray showed the anticipated inspiration.

Fang Zhe nodded, but he didn't know that there was some deviation in President Ray's mind. Fang Zhe said:

“This time, I hope that you and several major domestic mobile phone manufacturers can reach an offensive alliance on the chip block, just like the Huichuang Patent League we jointly created, so that you can get the maximum benefit when facing QUALCOMM, MediaTek, Taipei and other chip designers or substitute manufacturers.

Now you are fighting each other. Whether you are dealing with designers or manufacturers, there are some clams in competition. White and white have been taken advantage of by others. ”

“Establish an offensive alliance with several major manufacturers of mobile phones?" Mr. Ray thought of Fangchul's proposal.

The success of the Huichuang Patent Union has made Xiaomi and several major manufacturers taste the sweetness, but the mobile chip is one of the most important selling points introduced by various mobile phone manufacturers. Many times, in order to take the first issue of the chip, their Xiaomi and several major manufacturers compete to visit Qualcomm. I don't know how much benefit it has put in Qualcomm's people.

If several major manufacturers could agree to a compromise on the chip, it would certainly help them grasp more voice in front of Qualcomm, but would other manufacturers be willing to give up the chip as the core selling point of the phone?

Ray thought about it for half a day and realized that it was unlikely. If he ignored the selling point of the chip, then there was no selling point for each manufacturer's new generation of mobile phones. Don't say that other manufacturers were unwilling to give up this selling point, even if they were Xiaomi, they would not give up this selling point.

“Ah Zhe, your thinking is good, but you must also understand the importance of chips for us to launch a new generation of mobile phones, not to mention other mobile phone manufacturers, even if we Xiaomi, do not want to give up this selling point.” Ray always thought about it.

Fang Zhe smiled and said:

“Abandoning is not enough. My idea is to hope that all of you can dilute the promotion of the chip. Anyway, the new generation of QUALCOMM chips every year, regardless of which manufacturer sends them first, can be used in the end.

Qualcomm never thought that you would sign an exclusive chip agreement with any of your manufacturers, and you would raise your voice for a first call. The whole time you die and I live, the cheap part is Qualcomm. ”
