Chapter 3009 Technical Reserve

Fairy Company's display technology has made a huge leap forward after it obtained Sharp's LCD panel patent and established a joint R&D team with Samsung and Sharp.

The 2k screen of Dreampad fans has a resolution as high as 1980960 and a pixel density of 390ppi. This is the standard for 2k screens.

When other companies did not reach 1080 resolution, Dreampad fans took the lead in entering the 2k era. This cannot but be said that Fairy Company has once again raised the level of technology and set a new benchmark for smart electronic products.

But Fairy Company is not satisfied. Now, under joint research and development, it has begun to try to develop 4k display technology.

Judging from the previous feature phones, they have developed to a certain stage and are being updated very quickly.

Foreign mobile phones rely on constant updates and technological innovations, which directly wiped out the Chinese mobile phones that were in full swing back then.

The mobile phones that were popular in half the world, such as Bird, Panda, Amoi, Kejian, etc., have now long entered history.

The reason is that they have little technical reserves, neither in terms of appearance nor performance, to support their rapid innovation.

They watched foreign manufacturers constantly launch new mobile phones, and they themselves also hurriedly launched new mobile phones, but the functions, appearance, call quality, etc. were simply not satisfactory, so they fell into disgrace in just one or two years.

Withdrew from the market.

Never forget the past and be the teacher of the future.

Xiao Qi had already seen this clearly before making smartphones, so he invested hundreds of billions of dollars a year in technology research and development and innovation.

LCD screens are naturally a very expensive item.

Among other things, after Xiao Qi bought OLED technology, that is, foldable screen technology, from Samsung in 2007, he spent more than 2 billion US dollars on it for three consecutive years, but still failed to succeed. This is surprising.

It’s really a waste of money to the point where it’s heartbreaking.

But in the face of all these difficulties, Xiao Qi never gave up. He summed up experience again and again, purchased R&D technology again and again, and recruited better technicians again and again... These are all constant efforts.

Don’t be afraid of spending money, don’t be afraid of burning money. What you are most afraid of is being discouraged when encountering difficulties.

As long as you continue to sum up experience and continue to work hard, you will succeed sooner or later.

What's more, the laboratory has not made any progress at all. At least the current fusion degree of the folding part has been greatly improved. The only thing missing now is the last step.

Now, even mobile phones equipped with 2k screens are still a little behind, but this does not prevent Xiao Qi from starting to develop the laboratory to higher-end 4k screens.

The 4K ultra-high-definition screen resolution should reach 3840×2160 to be considered suitable, and this requires cramming 6.9 million pixels into an LCD screen space of less than 6 inches, with a pixel density as high as about 800ppi, which is extremely difficult.

task.

The biggest problem is how to arrange so many pixels according to rules so that the signal pixels can be more perfectly presented in front of people's eyes.

Although some people say that in LCD screens below 6 inches, whether you have 2k or 4k, there is actually not much difference from 1080p.

But Xiao Qi, who has seen the pixel density of screens displayed under a specific ultra-high-definition microscope, knows that the grades and technologies of these LCD screens are completely different.

Whether there is any difference will only be known if you hold it in your hand to compare and use it.

For example, a very simple point is that 3D movies will become mainstream in the future. If you use a 1080p mobile phone to watch 3D movies, even if your screen supports 3D playback, the image will be distorted. When it reaches a certain level,

, it will be stuck and blurred, which is very unpleasant.

But the 4k LCD screen is different, because its pixel density can fit the LCD screen very well, so it can better reflect the effect during 3D playback.

For another example, future mobile phones will develop towards integrated projectors. If the pixels of the images projected onto the wall through the mobile phones are too low, when enlarged to 40 or 50 inches or more, it will become granular or even mosaic.

In this case, it will not be a good viewing experience.

Therefore, a high-pixel LCD screen is very necessary.

Just because others say it is useless on small-sized mobile phones, you must not foolishly not do research and development and just live with the current capital.

Only when people quietly take out 2k or 4k LCD screens will they be dumbfounded.

Not to mention 4k, even if it is 8k pixel resolution, Fairy Lab must do it.

Xiao Qi bought so many patents, hired so many experts, and even worked hard with Li Jianxi to get Sharp, just for this reason.

Speaking of which, the competition in smart electronics is really much more intense than that of feature phones.

The resolution of computers has not exceeded 2k for decades, but it has only been less than 5 years since the advent of smart electronics, and Xiao Qi’s dreampad fans are already preparing to use 2k screens.

But this also shows how powerful the smart electronics market will be in the future.

Although computers will not disappear completely, in addition to their office use, most of the entertainment functions of computers will basically be replaced by smart electronics.

It can even be said more absolutely that smart electronics will become people's most important life tool.

Whether it is reading news, chatting, watching movies, listening to music, playing games, shopping, ordering food, booking tickets...etc., smart electronics can do it all together.

This is an incredible smart terminal, especially when it is closely tied to people's daily lives.

Whoever can firmly control smart electronics in the future will have the most wealth and the most extensive influence in the world.

If you are unable to invest on a large scale now and are reluctant to invest on a large scale, you will definitely fall behind other companies and this era in the future.

In addition to 4K LCD screens and OLED screens, Xiao Qi has also invested a large amount of money, especially in fantasy chips.

The average amount of funds invested in such a small chip every year exceeds 3 billion US dollars.

Among the thousands of projects of Fairy Laboratory, large and small, this is directly ranked first.

If Imagination Technologies and ARM were not willing to be acquired by Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi's investment would be less.

But now most people can rely on themselves. Whether they buy patents by themselves or hire engineers to invent patents by themselves, it is extremely money- and time-consuming.

In Mingxiang Holdings' North American laboratory, one-fifth of the engineers are invested in the CPU and GPU of Dream Chip.

Although these Americans have extremely high salaries, they are worthy of the salary. In the past three years, they have accounted for 64% of the results of the Dream Chip patents and improvements, contributing 228 patents and more than 1,300 improvements.

.

The most critical improvement in micro-nano technology was made by Mingxiang Holdings North America Laboratory.

There is another interesting thing here.

As we all know, the largest country in the software outsourcing industry is India.

Indians not only have very strong capabilities in software, they also have their own advantages in hardware.

So now, more than 20% of the people in Mingxiang Holdings' North American laboratories are Indians or Indians, more than Chinese.

No matter what others say about the three brothers, they are actually quite smart.

To this end, Fairy Labs is already applying to Xiao Qi to establish a new Fairy Labs branch in India.

On the one hand, this can recruit more smart engineers in India, so that they do not have to travel long distances to the United States to find good jobs; on the other hand, this is also an excellent way to save costs.

The salary of local engineers in India is only one-third of that of Indian engineers in the United States.

It's just that there is a big gap between India and the United States in terms of living conditions, standards, etc., so this kind of salary is actually quite high in India.

As long as Fairy Labs increases their salary by 50%, reaching one-half of that of American engineers, they can become India's super golden collar workers.

You can have a prosperous life without going abroad, and have an extremely comfortable and superior working environment. This is a great thing for people in any country, right?

Xiao Qi naturally agreed to Fairy Laboratory's request. In the second half of last year, when Xiaoyao Mall had a good relationship with the Indian government, he had already found three consulting companies in India and started slowly and carefully.

An engineer has been selected.

The general salary of engineers in India is 30,000 US dollars per year. According to the average monthly salary of India's urban population of 3,000 US dollars, it is basically seven times.

Therefore, many people in India study hard. India's software engineering industry, hardware R&D industry, etc. have the largest number of applicants every year.

It is precisely because a large number of people study these subjects and want to change their destiny that a large number of engineers emerge.

As soon as the news spread that Fairy Labs was selecting software and hardware engineers in India, it immediately won great enthusiasm from Indian engineers.

In just two months, more than 1,000 engineers submitted their resumes, making consulting companies overwhelmed.

According to this situation, Fairy Company's India laboratory can be officially established after another year at most.

By then, with the influx of Indian engineers, Fairy Company's technical reserves will definitely get better and better! (To be continued.)
