With the same Kunpeng 902 SOC, xphone 3 has the terrifying bonus of the XOS system, and its performance far exceeds that of its friend Kunpeng 902 by 60%!
With a performance gap of 60%, even if it costs more than 2,000 yuan, the xphone 3 will not be affected and will still sell well.
In addition, the Xingyi wafer fab is expanding rapidly. The Didu B2 wafer fab and the Modu M2 wafer fab will be put into production in the second half of the year. By then, the 28nm production capacity will be too abundant!
You can mass-produce Kunpeng 902 and sell it to third parties in large quantities!
After all, if Wang Yi doesn’t sell them, his friends will also buy Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 and Nvidia’s Tegra 4.
Instead of all the money being made by Qualcomm and Nvidia, it is better to take advantage of the 64-bit advantage of Kunpeng 902 and sell it directly, grab a lot of customers, and make money.
As a result, Nvidia's mobile chips will undoubtedly die, faster than in previous generations.
Even Qualcomm was hit hard and suffered heavy losses.
Wang Yi suddenly had a bold idea!
Can Nvidia and Qualcomm be killed together?!
If Qualcomm and Nvidia's mobile chips are out of date, then the technology war will be fun!
Nvidia is doing a great job. Without Xingyi Technology's large-scale purchases, Nvidia's Tegra 4 will be unsaleable. Next year, Nvidia will be finished and completely abandon the mobile chip business.
As for Qualcomm...it was originally very difficult to defeat, but now there is a chance, and it is even possible to seize it!
Without him, Qualcomm has been a bit weak in the past two years and has been continuously defeated by Xingyi Technology!
In the next few years, the hips will be stretched even more, which coincides with the rollover of Snapdragon 805, Snapdragon 810 and Snapdragon 820!
You know, last year Qualcomm’s 28-nanometer flagship chip APQ8064 was killed by Xingyi Technology’s 40-nanometer Kunpeng 702 across generations, which has caused Qualcomm’s original unstable godhead to collapse.
Many customers have given up on APQ 8064 and chose to purchase Kunpeng 700 and 702.
This year's 32-bit Snapdragon 800 is one generation ahead of the 64-bit Kunpeng 902. Then more mobile phone manufacturers will abandon Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and choose Xingyi Technology's Kunpeng 902.
Next year's 805 overturns again and is instantly killed by Kunpeng 906...
The Snapdragon 810 of the year after tomorrow continues to overturn...
The Snapdragon 820 of the next year has overturned for three consecutive generations...
As a result, Qualcomm fell behind for two years and was beaten, overturned after three years and was killed instantly, and failed miserably for five consecutive years. After five years, who will dare to use Qualcomm's Snapdragon processor?
Even the filial son of Qualcomm wouldn’t dare to do it, right?
If Qualcomm doesn't go bankrupt by then, who will?
In the previous life, Qualcomm went through three consecutive generations of overturns without going bankrupt. It was purely due to the incompetence of its friends and suppliers, and no one could beat it.
Nvidia cannot solve the baseband problem and will completely abandon its mobile chip business next year.
Samsung Semiconductor, the only one that can handle it, also has baseband problems that cannot be solved at all.
For example, the Orion 7420, which crushes the Snapdragon 810, has very powerful performance and advanced technology. The CPU and GPU both beat the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810, but it does not have an integrated baseband.
Integrated baseband cannot solve the problem. Many networks do not support it. If you want to kill Qualcomm, it will be difficult.
In addition to Texas Instruments, Nvidia has given up on the mobile chip business, and Qualcomm has continued to overturn, but all remain unscathed.
But now with Xingyi Technology, everything is different.
It is absolutely possible to take advantage of Qualcomm’s overturn for three consecutive years and directly kill Qualcomm!
Just like Intel ten years later, after a glorious life, it is still falling...
Qualcomm is also not invincible. It has been surpassed for five consecutive years, overturned for three consecutive generations, and faced a powerful opponent like Xingyi Technology.
From 2014 to 2016, Qualcomm overturned for three consecutive years. Xingyi Technology relied on its strong performance and technology to capture most domestic mobile phone manufacturers and even many manufacturers around the world.
Apple continues to use its own chips, and Samsung also uses its own chips. It will be difficult for Qualcomm to die!
As for how good Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835 will be in 2017, Qualcomm will make a strong counterattack with Snapdragon 835...
But unfortunately, after three consecutive years of overturning by Snapdragon 805, 810, and 820, who dares to continue using Snapdragon 835?
There is a high probability that around 2017, it will be the end of Qualcomm.
Since war is destined to begin, and technological war is destined to be inevitable, it is better to take action in advance!
Kill Qualcomm and NVIDIA mobile chips first to honor the flag!
This can totally be fixed!
If Nvidia and Qualcomm can be killed in advance, what will the US empire rely on to fight the future technology war?
Even the U.S. mobile phone chip design giant has been wiped out, and if it sanctions Xingyi Semiconductor, wouldn't it be Samsung that ultimately benefits?
By imposing sanctions on Xingyi Technology, the U.S. empire suffered heavy losses and the stick gained.
Even the US emperor will not agree to this!
This is interesting.
The technological war is unavoidable, so it is better to kill Qualcomm in advance and send Nvidia away at the same time, so that the American emperor will lose an arm!
Wang Yi had some concerns and spoke decisively:
“Not only Kunpeng 902 and Kunpeng 902C can be sold directly, but also Kunpeng 706C, Kunpeng 508C, and all 40nm chips can be sold directly!”
"And it will be sold as soon as it is launched. No, it can be pre-sold before it is launched!"
"In the future, our Kunpeng flagship chips and sub-flagship chips can be sold to third-party manufacturers before they are launched, so that third-party manufacturers can launch them with us!"
"There is only one purpose, to win orders from third-party mobile phone manufacturers and grab the market share of Qualcomm, Nvidia, and MediaTek!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded one after another, shocked.
The previous Kunpeng 702 was sold to third parties only after a long time on the market.
The Kunpeng 702 model from a friend was launched more than half a year later than Xingyi Technology.
But now it’s better, I’ll sell it before it goes on the market!
It even allowed friendly merchants and Xingyi Technology to launch new flagship chips together!
This is unprecedented.
But after thinking about it, everyone understood the reason.
With the improvement of the XOS system and the launch together, with the same processor and the same configuration, Xingyi Technology’s new machine can be 60% more powerful than its competitors!
The unique XOS system and unique 60% bonus are monopoly advantages, so there is no need to worry about launching together.
And by selling them in advance, you can better grab orders from Qualcomm.
But a senior executive couldn't help but said: "Chairman, if we do this, will it lead to an overall deterioration in the relationship with Qualcomm, or even be hammered?"
Wang Yi smiled faintly: "If we don't do this, we will be punished, and the time is not much different, it will all start around 2016."
Wang Yi knows clearly that sanctions don’t just start right from the start, they mean full sanctions.
On the contrary, there is a development process, a game process, and an upgrade process.
Even comprehensive sanctions have a time limit.
The scope of sanctions is also to first restrict government procurement, then corporate procurement, and finally civilian consumption levels, and finally comprehensive sanctions!
There is a development process from heavy to light, from government to civilian, from partial sanctions to comprehensive sanctions.
It’s not realistic to just use the big move right from the start and block everything. This is unrealistic and no one would do that.
This was the case in the previous life.
As early as 2010, the United States was aware of the strategic threat posed by Yuanyuan in the communications field, but it only prevented Yuanyuan from acquiring Motorola's wireless network business.
In 2011, it blocked a $2 million acquisition of 3Leafs.
Starting in 2012, the House of Representatives issued a risk report to restrict government departments from privately purchasing leading information technology systems.
Subsequently, relevant government departments will be restricted from privately purchasing IT equipment.
It can be said that in recent years, it has been restricted by government departments and does not involve the enterprise and individual consumer markets.
Even Lao Mi still pays attention to rules and regulations when doing things.
After all, the other party also needs the domestic market and is afraid of retaliation from us.
It wasn't until 2017 that the leader was changed and a lunatic came to power, launching an unprecedented attack on the personal consumption business.
This has never happened before.
Even so, it is done step by step.
The first two years were all trials and small-scale bans, and it was not until 2019 that full bans began.
The same is true for Xingyi Technology.
As long as it does not involve government projects, the other party will not directly attack personal consumption business in the past few years.
What's more, Xingyi Technology is not globalized now, and Xingyi mobile phones are not sold in the United States!
The other party was too lazy to take action.
Next year, Xingyi Technology will internationalize and its market share will gradually increase. However, since it has just internationalized, the impact will be limited and the problems will not be big.
In the next year, Xingyi Technology's international scale will expand and gradually threaten Apple, and the other party may start to take action.
In 2015, members of Congress began to propose the threat theory of Xingyi Technology...
Then the House of Representatives began to study this issue, the two sides competed, and the Ministry of Commerce began to investigate...
These processes must be followed step by step.
After more than half a year of investigation, the results were released almost at the end of 2015.
It will be mid-2016 when the results of the voting come out and partial bans are implemented...
At that time, it was also the end of Okuroko's term.
As for the rounds of games and the escalation of sanctions... this was all in 2017 or even 2018.
Without him, there will be a change of leadership in half a year, and the Heizi authorities will not completely break up the table, just flip the table, bear the pressure themselves, and clear all obstacles for the next one...
No one would do this kind of behavior of making wedding clothes for competitors.
On the contrary, the Heizi authorities are more inclined to leave the big trouble of Xingyi Technology to the next nemesis!
Also leave yourself a way out.
Maybe after stepping down, I can still make some money from Xingyi Technology.
When the lunatic comes to power in 2017, he will not scale things up at the beginning and impose comprehensive sanctions on Xingyi Technology.
Without him, I wouldn't care at all.
On the contrary, after he first came to power, Madman had to deal with the most critical things first, and solve all the big holes and important hidden dangers left by Heizi one by one!
Wang Yi knew very well that before Heizi stepped down, he dug a lot of holes for the lunatic, and they were all huge holes!
If these things are not solved properly, lunatics will suffer tragedy and may even be unable to sit still!
After solving these problems, the madman has secured his seat and freed up his energy before he can start the great power game and deal with Xingyi Technology!
It was almost 2018 at that time, and comprehensive sanctions might also be in 2019...
It can be said that this technological war is a long battlefield.
Wang Yi clarified his thinking. There were not big problems in 2014-2015. At most, sanctions and investigations were proposed.
The partial ban will be implemented in 2016, and the partial ban will be maintained during the handover in 2017.
After 2018, they began to increase sanctions, escalate sanctions, and finally completely ban...
But by then, the technology war is probably almost over, Qualcomm has been killed, the other side has completely blocked Xingyi Technology, and the United States itself has no chips to use.
Unless we completely abandon Android and only push iPhone, or use Samsung chips?
But no matter what, it's not a good situation.
Wang Yi figured out the key. As long as Qualcomm is killed, half of the technology war will be won!
The next focus is to work for Qualcomm, grab customers, and grab orders!
Thinking of this, Wang Yi continued: "Have all the supporting chips on the motherboard been self-developed?"
George nodded: "In the past two years, our integrated chip department has not been idle, and its output has been amazing. In addition to the previous wifi and Bluetooth chips, power management chip P1, fast charging chip C1, it also has radio frequency transceiver chips for mobile phone signals, and signal amplification
Radio frequency power amplifier chips, etc., are all self-developed."
Now Xingyi Semiconductor is constantly recruiting talents and expanding.
In addition to the Kunpeng 702 SOC department led by George and the Kunpeng 906 SOC department led by Tong Chao, as well as the baseband department, there is also an integrated chip department.
The business of the integrated chip department is to develop various other chips.
These chips are relatively simple, and the process does not need to be too advanced. 50nm process or 55nm process can be used, and they are currently manufactured by SMIC.
"Very good." Wang Yi nodded with satisfaction and made new arrangements:
“Next, we will not only sell the Kunpeng 902 SOC, but also the entire motherboard and all chipsets as a set. A Kunpeng 902 SOC, plus our wifi Bluetooth chip, power management chip P1, fast charging chip C1, and mobile phone signal radio frequency transceiver chip
, signal amplification RF power amplifier chips, etc., are sold in packages, and we provide a complete set of solutions and technical support for motherboard chipsets!”
George's eyes lit up: "This is a good strategy. Not only can it generate revenue, but it can also increase sales. It's all the same brand, so it has better compatibility and users are happy with it."
Different brands of chips have differences.
For example, on a motherboard, if the processor is from Xingyi Technology, the power management chip is from Qualcomm, and the fast charging chip is from Xingyi Technology, it is easy for things to go wrong.
Once the optimization is not done well, it is easy to overturn.
On the contrary, they are all from the same brand, with better compatibility, and even the brand will provide a complete set of technical solutions.
If Wang Yi sells it as a complete set, mobile phone manufacturers will not hesitate at all and will definitely choose Xingyi Family Bucket.
Wang Yi continued: "In the future, many new brands will also make smartphones, but they do not have enough technology. We can provide motherboard design services. As long as the money is available, we will design chipsets for them. We can also provide public version motherboard sets.
Sell ​​directly to third-party brands!”
"This is a great idea, a golden idea!" Zhu Changlin's eyes lit up:
"The most difficult thing in mobile phone research and development is the motherboard. New brands can't handle it, and small brands also need time. Smartphones are updated so quickly that they don't have time to develop them themselves. They can just buy our public version of the design!"
Wang Yi nodded: "Yes, that's it!"
In the past, many brands released multiple mobile phones a year, with an average of one new phone every two months. How could there be time to develop them one by one?
They all go to companies such as Wingtech to buy the complete machine design and then OEM it.
It's reliable, just spend more money, buy out the design, use it yourself, and make it a flagship phone.
In order to save money, some brands directly buy public version designs and make mid- to low-end mobile phones.
It is precisely because of this that many new mobile phones from many brands all look the same, and it is impossible to identify whose phone it is without looking at the logo.
Now Xingyi Technology provides a complete set of motherboard designs and public version motherboards, which greatly reduces the difficulty of mobile phone research and development.
When other brands make mobile phones, they can directly buy Xingyi Technology's complete set of motherboard designs, buy all Xingyi Technology's chips, and other components, and Xingyi Technology can make a lot of money.
The cost of these chips is very low, costing a few cents to tens of dollars, but selling for tens to hundreds of dollars!
Once the entire chipset is sold, the profit inside is very scary, perhaps exceeding the profit of the entire machine of domestic mid- to low-end mobile phones.
More importantly, this business can greatly grab orders from Qualcomm and win over most mobile phone manufacturers!
Whether it is to sell more chips and make more money, or to work for Qualcomm and grab Qualcomm's orders and customers, the motherboard chipset business is essential.
Wang Yi continued: "After you have arranged the motherboard chipset business and the sale of Kunpeng 902, you can now contact big customers."
After thinking about this, Wang Yi dared to let go.
Unlike a lunatic who doesn't follow any rules and does everything, a black man still has a bottom line.
At the very least, he will not overturn the table directly, is not good at playing technology war, and will not attack enterprises and personal consumption fields.
In fact, before the Sichuan Crazy People, the US Empire almost never blocked the personal consumption field, but only restricted government procurement.
Sichuan Crazy has finally made a start!
Wang Yi also dared to let go.
For example, Kunpeng 902 can be sold by contacting major customers now.
It will be officially launched in September. Even if it continues to be concealed, it cannot be concealed for long.
Qualcomm and other giants will also know about it by next month at the latest.
If it's quick, Qualcomm will know this month.
Instead of doing this, it is better to sell directly to third-party manufacturers and make a profit first.
"Okay, Chairman." George responded.
Wang Yi changed the topic: "If it is fully launched, will the subsequent production capacity of Kunpeng 902 be able to keep up?"
Mr. Hu nodded: "We can keep up. The current 28nm production capacity is 30 million Kunpeng 902 units per month. However, the first phase of the Imperial B2 wafer fab will be delivered in early August. With the installation of the production line and debugging, it will be put into production in early October."
, with a monthly production capacity of 50,000 wafers.”
"In early September, the first phase of the Modu M2 wafer fab can be delivered, with a monthly production capacity of 50,000 wafers, and can be put into production in early November."
"As a result, our 28-nanometer wafer production capacity reached 100,000 pieces per month in October, with a monthly production of 60 million 28-nanometer chips. In November, we will produce 90 million 28-nanometer chips per month."
Wang Yi nodded: "That's okay. Let's give some samples to third-party brands first and let them develop new machines. It will take half a year before they are developed. We will start supplying in October and have a monthly output of 90 million units in November. 28
Nanochips can be directly supplied on a large scale!”
"That's no problem. Qualcomm's Snapdragon 800 will not be available for mass supply until October. However, they are 32-bit processors. Even if they are sold cheaply, they are not as good as our 64-bit processors, not to mention their prices are not low.
The performance is worse!" George was full of confidence.
Everyone knows the performance of Kunpeng 902.
After deciding on the grand strategy of grabbing orders from Qualcomm, Wang Yi began to deploy a new strategy:
"In addition to the motherboard chipset business, we also have to start a new big project - battery research and development!"
"Whether it is the current Xingyi mobile phone or Xingyi tablet, or the future Xingyi car or Xingyi drone, it is inseparable from the battery!"
"Instead of always purchasing third-party batteries, it is better for us to fully develop our own batteries."
"Currently, Xingyi Automobile Division has established a battery research and development center and is developing special batteries for new energy vehicles."
Since Xingyi Automobile was established, the first thing it started was research and development.
Three electric systems, driverless technology, and vehicle research and development are being comprehensively promoted.
Naturally, battery research and development also began.
"Similarly, the UAV Division is also developing special batteries for UAVs."
"But it's not enough. We also need to develop batteries for mobile phones and tablets."
"To this end, a new battery R&D center has been established, focusing on mobile phone and tablet batteries!"
No way, batteries and batteries are not exactly the same.
Car batteries cannot be copied to mobile phones, they still have to be developed from scratch.
Zhu Changlin responded: "Okay, Chairman, I will make arrangements right now!"
Subsequently, Wang Yi arranged several major projects. At this point, the strategic deployment meeting for the second half of the year came to a successful conclusion.
Everyone left, each department performed its duties, and everyone began a new wave of busyness.
Wang Yi left Zhu Changlin behind: "Changlin, how is the patent acquisition going?"
"Chairman, the progress on Nokia's side is relatively smooth. The negotiations are basically completed and the contract will be signed next week."
Zhu Changlin said with a smile: "However, Nokia only sells a part of its patents, accounting for about 30%. The remaining 70% of the patents still have to be packaged and sold with the mobile phone business. Do we want to win it?"
Wang Yi waved his hand: "It's useless, don't say that we don't like Nokia's mobile phone business. Even if we like it and want to buy it, Europe and the United States will not approve it, and they will prevent us from acquiring the entire Nokia due to strategic security issues."
"On the contrary, if we don't acquire Nokia and only acquire 30% of the patents, then there won't be a big problem."
These days, other domestic brands do not pay patent fees, but Xingyi Technology spends huge sums of money to buy patents and give them money. The other party will definitely not refuse!
"Just accept it when you see it and sign the contract as soon as possible to avoid long nights and endless dreams!"
"Okay, Chairman, I urge you to sign the contract within this week."
"Well, where is Ericsson?"
"The progress with Ericsson is not going well and we are still talking about it. The main reason is that Ericsson is only engaged in communication services and has no intention of giving up."
"That's it, let's keep talking, don't give up!" Wang Yi sighed.
Only acquiring 30% of Nokia's patents, plus Xingyi Technology's own patents, is still not enough.
Once internationalized, you will be prosecuted.
Just like HTC, don't they have patents?
Yes, but not enough.
In every patent war, in addition to responding to the lawsuit, HTC will also actively sue the other party.
However, because of the lack of patents, most of them lose the lawsuit and either lose money, have a sales ban, or lose money + ban sales, which is terrible.
However, if Ericsson acquires another 20% of the patents, plus Nokia's 30%, plus the patents developed by Xingyi Technology itself, as well as the patents acquired before, then it will be stable!
At that time, not only will we not be afraid of patent wars, we will also be able to actively initiate patent wars and harvest other brands.
"Ericsson will continue to talk, but we can't hang ourselves from a tree."
Wang Yi continued: "There are other companies that have core patents, so buy some of them. Spread them out, and one company will buy some of them!"
"Okay, Chairman!"
Five days later, Nokia's patent acquisition was formally negotiated.
Xingyi Technology acquired 30% of Nokia’s communication-related core patents at a price of 4 billion yuan!
In the previous life, when Microsoft acquired Nokia, it spent 13.7 billion yuan on patents alone.
Chapter completed!
