Chapter 45 Invited
Zhang Rujin finally formally reached a cooperative relationship with Xu Cong on behalf of ZTE International, and successfully obtained 7.5% of ZTE International's shares through technology investment.
"Xu Xiaoyou, to be honest, I am very optimistic about the future of Sugon Semiconductor, I don't know..."
After ZTE International formally reached a cooperative relationship with Sugon Semiconductor, Zhang Rujin also deliberately found Xu Cong in his personal capacity.
And Zhang Rujin’s reason this time is also very simple.
I want to invest in Sugon Semiconductor as an individual shareholder.
Zhang Rujin even offered 2 billion in exchange for 5% of Sugon Semiconductor's shares.
Xu Cong did not choose to refuse Zhang Rujin's request.
Although Zhang Rujin said he founded ZTE International, in the next few years, he eventually left ZTE International due to certain things.
Rather than saying that he is leaving, it is better to say that he is being kicked out of ZTE International.
Zhang Rujin is indeed a very powerful talent in the semiconductor field. Such a capable, powerful and even well-connected person is what Xu Cong needs to win over.
And this time the other party still invested in Sugon Semiconductor through capital investment.
Two billion funds is not a small number.
It is a good deal to exchange 5% of the shares for 2 billion in funds and at the same time be able to have a relationship with Zhang Rujin.
Xu Cong has officially established a relationship with Zhang Rujin, which will also facilitate Xu Cong’s future layout in the entire industry.
As for ZTE International’s chip production issues, it will be difficult for ZTE International to achieve the production of 128nm process chips in a short time after acquiring the technology.
After all, after ZTE International obtains the technology, it still needs to conduct equipment testing. It is estimated that it will need to wait until a certain yield rate is achieved before large-scale mass production can be achieved.
In order to obtain processor chips in time, we released products before Guozi.
Sugon Semiconductor specifically placed two orders.
OEM order for 100,000 pieces of 196nm process technology.
OEM orders for 400,000 pieces of 128nm process technology.
As an early launch product, building a reputation for the brand is what new products need to do.
As for sales, once the brand's reputation is fully established, sales will naturally increase.
Xu Cong feels that hundreds of thousands of products in a short period of time are enough for Xu Cong to leave a name in the smartphone market.
After almost solving the chip problem, Xu Cong is also ready to start a new communications equipment company.
This company was established to prepare for exploring the field of smartphones.
The establishment of this company at the same time means that future purchases of corresponding mobile phone components will be collected first in the name of this company.
Of course, Xu Cong can set up a new company, or he can choose to acquire a company that specializes in communication equipment.
In this era, domestic copycat phone manufacturers are extremely rampant. The copycat chips brought by MediaTek have given these manufacturers the opportunity to enter the mobile phone industry.
In an era when copycats are rampant, the mobile phones produced by these copycat manufacturers were even sold abroad.
According to statistics, there are at least hundreds of copycat phone manufacturers in China, and these manufacturers have prospered relying on MediaTek.
However, as the number of mobile phone manufacturers gradually increases, some copycat phone manufacturers are gradually facing the risk of bankruptcy.
Xu Cong can definitely take this opportunity to acquire a company.
This allows Xu Cong to save many steps and save time and energy to use in other places.
Xu Cong directly focused his attention on a copycat phone manufacturer named Pineapple.
"Pineapple" heard the name of this company and felt that there was something special about this company.
Pineapple mobile phone, as a relatively popular copycat mobile phone in the copycat phone market in the past two years, quickly occupied a part of the market by relying on the advantages of large speakers and loudspeakers.
It's a pity that the corresponding large speakers and speakers were also copied by other copycat mobile phone manufacturers, which also caused the Pineapple mobile phone to not make any progress in the next two years.
On the contrary, it has completely fallen into the harsh market competition.
Although Pineapple Communication Equipment Company is said to be a copycat mobile phone manufacturer, it has all the basic configurations.
First of all, this manufacturer has the corresponding mobile phone license, which can save Xu Cong the time to apply for the license.
Secondly, this pineapple company has its own foundry. Although it is only a small foundry, this foundry can assemble and produce tens of thousands of devices.
The most important thing is that this manufacturer has very good channels.
Pineapple Company is located in Huaqiangbei.
Huaqiangbei is a very legendary place in the field of electronic technology in China.
There was once a foreign person in charge of the electronics industry who once said that it took him more than forty days to obtain components in Silicon Valley, but he could obtain them in less than half a day in Huaqiangbei.<
/p>
Huaqiangbei provides a lot of components, which is simply the best partner for Xu Cong at present.
Although these components are not the most cutting-edge components, they are enough to cope with the first smartphone designed by Xu Cong.
After all, Xu Cong has basically completed the design of the most core elements.
Operating system!
Capacitive screen!
Self-developed chip!
Relying on these three major elements, the next feature phone will have a place in the competition in the industry.
As for the acquisition of the Pineapple Company, Xu Cong is not in a hurry.
After all, current mobile phone chips have not yet been fully designed and produced.
Once the corresponding chip design is produced, it will not be too late to make acquisitions.
In May, Wanxiang Technology Company received an email from abroad.
"Global Game Contest!"
Xu Cong looked at the content of this email with a curious look in his eyes.
The Global Game Competition is a game competition jointly organized by American game companies.
In May of each year, the judging panel of the competition will ask the world's top game companies to participate in this game competition.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Major game companies around the world will be invited in May, and the official game competition will begin in August.
In August, various game companies can publish their new games designed on the game competition platform, and players around the world can play the games on the platform.
The winning games and game companies will eventually be announced after October.
Although the Global Game Competition was only established five years ago, it has gained a very good reputation and influence in these five years.
Shengda was once invited to participate in this game competition, but several invitations were rejected by Shengda Company.
The judging panel of this year’s global game competition directly found Wanxiang Technology, obviously taking a fancy to the potential and strength of Wanxiang Technology.
News of the corresponding invitation letter spread throughout the company instantly, and Xu Cong also invited the executives of the game department to hold a meeting.
"Are you going to join? Boss?"
As the head of the game department, Zhang Sheng was extremely excited when he learned that he had been invited. You must know that such an invitation means that the company has been recognized by the global game industry.
As for whether to participate or not, it still depends on the boss's face.
"Of course you have to participate. After all, this is a good thing for our company. We will take this opportunity to build a reputation in overseas markets and promote the fair export of Chinese games overseas!"
Xu Cong did not have any resistance to this global game competition, but was very much looking forward to it.
This is a game platform competition for the entire world. If it can obtain a good enough ranking in this platform competition, it will definitely increase the influence of Wanxiang Technology in overseas markets.
Wanxiang Technology has a very good reputation and corresponding achievements in China, but it does not have any influence in overseas markets.
Xu Cong has always hoped to shift his company's business from domestic to global markets, but there has been no corresponding opportunity to go overseas.
Invitations like the Global Game Conference now give Wanxiang Technology the opportunity to go global.
"I heard that this time the global game competition has two tracks, namely online games and stand-alone games. I hope that the game department can speed up the time to produce excellent game works in the next few months!"
