Chapter 139 Helpless cooperation from friends and businessmen

After its release, the FlexPai 2s series products attracted the attention of the entire domestic mobile phone industry.

After all, the two products of the FlexPai 2s series have reached the ceiling of current domestic mobile phones in terms of overall hardware configuration.

If it weren't for the fact that Flexpai is currently a small manufacturer among all domestic brands, I'm afraid that the Flexpai 2s would be able to kill all the high-end flagships.

Of course, after the product prices were announced, domestic mobile phone manufacturers breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Roupai's product this time is said to be very top-notch, the price is not cheap.

Among them, the price of the ordinary version has basically reached the price of the pro version of some domestic manufacturers.

Of course, what makes many mobile phone brands happy is that although Roupai is backed by Rouyu, it still sells screens made of r3 for more than 5,000 yuan, and screens made of r4 material for more than 6,000 yuan.

This also saves enough face for domestic manufacturers.

After all, with the relationship between Roupai and Rouyu, it is possible for Roupai phones to have R4 material screens within 4,000 yuan.

But the Soft Pai didn’t do that!

Fundamentally ensuring the positioning of r3 material and r4 material screens in the industry.

The screens made of these two materials are the top screens in the industry!

The time has also come for the day when the product goes on sale.

The overall product sales are similar to those of the original 2nd generation SoftPai mobile phone series.

But Zhou Zhen is quite satisfied with the current sales results.

After all, the price of the Flexpai 2s has increased a lot compared to the Flexpai 2 generation.

And now it is still able to maintain the most basic sales volume, which is enough to prove that most users recognize the FlexPai 2s series.

As Roupai mobile phones gradually gained a firm foothold in the industry, new news came from Rouyu Company.

Rice Company, which has always had a bad relationship with Rouyu Company, actually took the initiative to send people to Rouyu Company. The headquarters wanted to order a batch of OLED screens.

In the early days, among all domestic mobile phone brands, the mobile phone manufacturer that cooperated most closely with Rouyu Company was Rice.

However, after the Rice Company completely got on board with Sansang in 18 years, it completely severed its relationship with Rouyu Company.

Until now, DaMi Company has not been involved in purchasing screens. Considering the screens of Rouyu Company, the relationship between the two companies has basically been completely severed since 18 years.

This time, the rice company took the initiative to find Rouyu, but it was because its own products were stuck again.

As the first domestic flagship rice phone 10 equipped with Fire Dragon 865, although users complained that the price was too high when it was first sold, with the release of various flagships, it has gradually become what everyone calls the flagship goalkeeper.

As the company's first truly high-end digital model, the sales of the flagship series Mi Phone 10 have been recognized by consumers both at home and abroad.

Especially in the European market, rice companies began to enter the European market at the end of 2018. After a year of development, they finally gained a certain position in the European market.

And with the flagship release of the Mi Phone 10 series, it has also achieved very impressive results in Europe, even vaguely surpassing the old European overlord Sansang.

Originally, the relationship between Dami and Sansang is very close. You must know that the screens and corresponding image camera sensors of the mobile phones currently used by Dami are provided by Sansang.

However, due to the interests of the European market, Sansang currently has to impose corresponding restrictions on the supply of screens to the rice company.

Sansang's life has not been very good in recent years, especially after the rise of Juchang in recent years, it has begun to completely suppress the development trend of Sansang and robbed many of Sansang's markets.

Juchang even has a vague tendency to replace Sansang and become the most high-end flagship brand of Android.

In the European market, Sansang was defeated by Juchang.

Now the rice company has begun to gradually grow wildly in the European market with its new flagship series, which has squeezed the narrow living space that Sansan had.

Therefore, Sansang stopped talking about martial ethics!

The supply channel of OLED screens to Rice Company has been cut off.

This incident made the company completely unable to sit still. The digital series of rice phones has always been the product series that the company values ​​most.

This digital series is not only the company's first digital series to hit the high end, but also the flagship series to hit the global market.

Under such circumstances, Rice Company’s first consideration is naturally China Star Optoelectronics.

Although Huaxing Optoelectronics can also provide corresponding curved OLED screens, they are not as good as Sansang screens in terms of overall quality.

Not to mention that the screen produced by Huaxing Optoelectronics will have a serious green screen phenomenon when it is bent.

If there is no choice, Rice Company will definitely consider CSOT’s screens first.

But now DaMi Company's ambition to hit the high-end and global markets is still there. DaMi needs an OLED screen that can truly be positioned as high-end.

So DaMi Company directly set its sights on Rouyu’s R3 material OLED screen.

"Dr. Jay, long time no see!"

"Director Wang, you still have the same style!"

Zhou Zhen looked at Wang Teng who had arrived at his company's headquarters, still with a smile on his face, but secretly scolding Rebus for what a dog he was.

Wang Teng used to be Zhou Zhen's deputy in the note series project team. Although the two were not particularly close, their friendship was still there.

It can be said that the current rice company is the manufacturer that has the worst relationship with "Zhou Zhen" among domestic brands.

In addition to the corresponding historical issues, it is also related to the concepts and cooperation between the two manufacturers.

Rice Company is currently the company with the most commercial atmosphere among domestic brands.

Although most domestic mobile phone brands are commercial companies, the businessmen of Rice Company have the most authentic faces.

What is the face of a businessman? He is always willing to go to any disadvantage and do anything for the sake of profit.

Just like now, Sansang has cut off the supply of rice phones. In order to sell more products, it can only rely on the corresponding relationships to find Rouyu to resume cooperation.

Among the manufacturers that cooperate with Rouyu, there are manufacturers whose flagship products all use Rouyu screens.

For example, Chrysanthemum Plant, Berry Clan.

There are also manufacturers that use soft-feather screens for most of their flagships.

For example, Green Factory's find x2pro and OnePlus 8pro use soft feather r4 material screens, and the regular version uses a mix of Sansan e3 upgraded version and soft feather r3 screen.

There are also neutral manufacturers, such as Blue Factory.

Anyway, one person is half, no one can be offended.

Of course, Rice is the first mobile phone manufacturer to insist on using Sansang and completely stop using Rouyu screens.

But now the relationship between Da Mi and Zhou Zhen is not like this.

After all, at the rice phone 10 series launch conference, Rebus held the rice phone 10 series against the SoftPai phone to perform the Michaelis comparison.

Even at the launch of the Redmi K30pro series, the IMX686 lens was used to compete with two of its own models using the previous generation IMX586.

However, the FlexPai mobile phone is not a soft persimmon. At the Flexpai Mobile 2S launch conference, the images and external audio and video that the rice phone 10pro was proud of in the promotion were directly knocked off the altar.

It can be said that the two manufacturers are currently at loggerheads.

Under this situation, the rice company still had to find Rouyu for cooperation.

It is a headache to know that the current situation of the rice company is very troublesome.

There is also a flagship product within the rice company that is positioned higher than the rice phone 10pro.

Now, because Sansan has cut off the supply of screens, not only is it difficult for the sales of products on sale to increase, but it also has an impact on the development and production of new flagship products.

The R3 material screen of Rouyu Company can significantly solve the plight of the Rice Company.

Zhou Zhen did not refuse this request for cooperation.

Although Zhou Zhen had certain opinions about the rice company, Zhou Zhen would not refuse the cooperation offered to him.

After all, the products produced by the current rice company will not pose a threat to the products produced by Roupai at all.

"How many screens do you need, but all previous screen orders need to be booked in full!"

Zhou Zhen looked at Wang Teng with a smile and asked tentatively.

But the number given by Wang Teng shocked Zhou Zhen.

Thirty million batches of R3 material OLED screens!

Thirty million batches, this shocked Zhou Zhen.

To be honest, even for a large technology company like Juchang, the orders required each time are basically batches of 10 million.

But this time Wang Teng opened his mouth and asked for 30 million!

However, after working as a product for the rice company for almost half a year, manager Zhou Zhen still has a certain understanding of the rice company.

When negotiating with the supply chain, rice companies generally purchase large quantities of components to lower product prices, thereby gaining certain advantages in cost integration.

Although the rice company this time wants to reduce the cost of a single screen by ordering large batches of screens.

"Thirty million yuan is fine, but the full deposit requires 22 billion yuan!"

"Our company has ordered 30 million screens at one time, can it be less?"

"Then how much did you say?"

"Eighteen billion!"

"Why don't you go back to the hotel to take a rest first, and say hello to Mr. Lei for me! By the way, the production cost of a screen made of r3 material is not low, and 21 billion is my final bottom line!"

Zhou Zhen looked at the familiar bargaining scene and also chuckled.

Bargaining prices with supply chain manufacturers is an old tradition of rice companies.

Wang Teng watched Zhou Zhen issue the eviction order. At this time, he could only return to the hotel silently and report the situation to the person in charge of the supply chain and Rebus.

After nearly a day of consideration, the rice company finally had no choice but to reluctantly agree to this cooperation method.

The current rice company is in great need of Rouyu screens. After all, there is not much inventory left of the rice phone 10 using Sansang screens.

The cost of each screen at 700 yuan is similar to the starting price of Sansang’s top e3 screen.

It’s just that when Rice 700 won Sansang Screen, Sansang also gave Rice Company a batch of 20-megapixel front-facing lens sensors.
