If Xiao Qi had to choose, just like a computer, the most important thing about a mobile phone is the processor chip.
Xiao Qi's CPU and GPU processor chips are still the same suppliers as the previous DreamPad. The CPU is still the ARM framework, and the GPU is Imagination Technologies' SSGX355, both of which are dedicated to mobile phones.
The remaining modifications and enhancements were developed by experts from Fairy Labs and MediaTek.
Before the release of DreamPad, joint experts had already started research and development, which took half a year. By the end of May, the basic dual-core processor has been developed, and the test results for running data and performance are very good.
Therefore, the dual-core processor, one of the most important components of this mobile phone, became the earliest research and development component that could be mass-produced.
Because MediaTek is very powerful, Cai Mingsheng can get 0.2 US dollars per unit from dual-core processing, which can be said to be a lot of profit, but his ambition does not end there.
Speaking of which, the relationship between Xiao Qi and MediaTek is really deep.
The "fairy mobile phone" on which Xiao Qi made his fortune was purchased from Cai Guozhi, who purchased MediaTek's mobile phone chips.
Of course, you can also say that Xiao Qi was very lucky to find MediaTek's mobile phone chip, but this cannot erase Xiao Qi's great achievements.
The success of the Fairy Phone has completely established MediaTek's reputation, allowing MediaTek to occupy an absolute market share in China's low-end mobile phone chip market. Last year's shipments reached 150 million units, which was higher than in previous generations.
The number has greatly increased by 60.
Xia Xin Electronics tasted the benefits of Korean inferior mobile phones and bought the renamed Fanxing Mobile with the attitude of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, from the time it bought Fanxing Mobile in March last year to April this year,
, they sold a total of 36 million low-end mobile phones and made a profit of more than 15 billion!
If it hadn't been for the influx of BBK, Tianyu, Gionee and other brands later, which allowed Xiaxin Electronics to only enjoy the market monopoly for three months, I'm afraid that in this year's time, they would have given away the 30 billion they spent on Fanxing Electronics.
Earn it completely.
But even so, they have MediaTek's three-year production base of 50 million sets of mobile phone chips per year, and they have a head start in the market. Amoi Electronics believes that on average, such low-end mobile phones can have at least 5-8 years of sales.
Cycle, making 5 billion every year is just like playing.
Due to the crazy sales of low-end mobile phones in China, MediaTek earned at least 5 billion yuan in revenue this year just from selling cheap mobile phone chips. Logically speaking, this is an achievement worth showing off, but
Cai Mingsheng didn't think so.
It is true that if it keeps selling mobile phone chips, MediaTek's profits will continue to rise next year and the year after that, but it will only be limited to such low-end mobile phone chips.
If we are only satisfied with the low-end market, it will limit MediaTek's future development.
Any ambitious entrepreneur absolutely hopes that his product will be both popular and successful.
Doesn’t Cai Mingsheng hope that his products will one day join the world’s mainstream and become a world-famous international enterprise?
Especially after seeing the crazy sales of DreamPad and IPHONE, Cai Mingsheng came up with this idea.
IPHONE has only been on the market for more than a month, but someone has already split IPHONE. According to ISUPPLI's calculations, IPHONE's profit margin is as high as 55%, which is equivalent to making a profit of 100%.
Profit is not what Cai Mingsheng values most. What he values most is the substantial improvement in his company's quality and popularity after entering the supplier chain of world-class products such as IPHONE and DreamPad.
People who make low-end products are often looked down upon.
Those who make high-end products will be sought after when they go out.
Take a look at Chenhong Optoelectronics and Shenghua Technology!
Since they supplied touch screen components and LCD screens for the DreamPad respectively, their status in Baodao's corporate world has continued to rise. Not only is their reputation boasted as the high-tech company with the best technical capabilities in Baodao, but their stocks are also
It has been in the red for six consecutive months, and its market value has doubled!
Let’s look at poor AU Optronics. It was due to the short-sightedness of their former chairman Jiang Yanxin that they lost the order from Fairy Company and were severely beaten by Chen Hongguang in terms of LCD panels.
Obviously people within the industry know that their technology is much better than that of Chenhong Optoelectronics, but both the media and the general public think that Chenhong Optoelectronics is much better.
Chenhong Optoelectronics pushed AU Optronics' stock to rise, but correspondingly, AU Optronics' stock kept falling inexplicably.
"How good are you? Then why doesn't DreamPad use your product? It's the world's first smart tablet. How could a genius like Xiao Qi choose bad components? Stop joking!"
Answers like this often make AU Optronics go crazy but are helpless.
Seeing that although Xiao Qi agreed to cooperate with AU Optronics, he was not active at all and still asked Chenhong Optoelectronics to work hard on research and development. Jiang Yanxin, who knew the reason, could only resign sadly from the position of chairman, but
Nothing can make up for his sin and guilt.
The current DreamStars mobile phone has MediaTek participating, which is a very good opportunity.
This is an important opportunity for MediaTek to become the strongest mobile phone chip and processor manufacturer in Baodao and even Asia!
If it were not for the friendship between Cai Guozhi and Xiao Qi at MediaTek, Cai Mingsheng is sure that he would not have been able to participate in the research and development of mobile phone processor chips of Fairy Company after doing the same thing as Jiang Yanxin and rejecting it.
.
Therefore, Cai Guozhi changed one of his uncle's views: Even if a person is idle and has no ability, as long as he has good luck, he is unstoppable!
Cai Guozhi is such a person. His business ability is not strong, but he is lucky. When Xiao Qi was just doing business, he gave Xiao Qi a hand. Now Xiao Qi has never forgotten him, even if MediaTek's arrogance severely offended him.
Without him, Xiao Qi could finally forgive MediaTek and Cai Mingsheng.
Isn’t Jiang Yanxin great? Isn’t his business and professional ability strong? But he didn’t even get a chance to display his talents, so he was suffocated to death. It’s really embarrassing. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature,
