Chapter 258
"There is no problem with our chip, how to solve it?" Lu Zixin felt something wrong.
"Of course it is fully tested by the Federal Communications Commission and the US National Information Security Agency!" Taylor Walker said with a smile, "Note that it is fully accepted, not partially accepted."
"According to the data provided by the red letter, we have not been able to determine the problem. More detailed testing information is needed."
"The information we are submitting now fully conforms to the standards of the International and Federal Council. I don't know what else needs to be supplemented?" Lu Zixin asked.
"Crack!" Taylor Walker snapped her fingers, and a girl brought a laptop next to her, she opened it, and showed Lu Zixin the request.
Lu Zixin only glanced at it for a few moments, and then his brows furrowed. When he finished, his face even had a hint of anger.
"This is completely unreasonable!" Lu Zixin said directly, "The information requested here involves our commercial secrets, and it is absolutely impossible to provide audits!"
The requirements in the laptop are simply disguised to let Hongxin tell them about the chip manufacturing technology of Hongxin!
The most critical part of all smart products of Hongxin is the smart chip of Hongxin! It is only by relying on this chip that the functions of Hongxin smart products can surpass other counterparts.
Although the other party disguised the requirements as various conditions, Lu Zixin could see at a glance that if they submitted these, and then based on the samples of the red core, they could completely restore the red core chip manufacturing technology!
This looks so ugly! Simply robbery!
"Don't lose your temper, Mr. Lu!" Taylor Walker said with a gentle smile, "This is not my request, but the request of the committee and the information security department."
"Of course, I also know that there is something wrong with such a request." He continued, "Gru and I have been old friends for many years. As a friend, I can also provide you with a feasible plan."
"What plan?" Lu Zi felt disgusted in his confidence, and now he found that Gru seemed to have known the news for a long time, but didn't tell him. It appears that Gru and Tyler Walker are one interest group.
"Since the committee believes that your chips have information security risks, and Hongxin is unwilling to provide such information, then Hongxin's products can be replaced with other smart chips. For example, our Qualcomm chips are good, many of your mobile phone manufacturers in China. , all use Qualcomm chips," Taylor Walker said.
"Impossible!" Lu Zixin immediately retorted, making Tyler Walker's face cold.
"It's really ridiculous." Lu Zixin didn't want to chat with him in a false way. The two proposals this guy proposed were just nonsense!
The first plan, which is to rob their technological achievements, is impossible. As for the second option, it's even more funny.
The biggest advantage of Hongxin is its own high-performance chips. If you replace Qualcomm chips, you need to pay a lot of money to Qualcomm. Can Hongxin's products still be called Hongxin?
Unmatched chips will instantly bring the product performance to the same level as other brands, and some functions will be limited, such as intelligent voice, information processing and the like. At that time, the advantages of Hongxin will be gone, not to mention the competition for the US market.
Seeing him angry, Gru quickly persuaded: "Mr. Lu, don't get excited, Mr. Walker just said a proposal. In fact, I think this solution is not bad. Qualcomm is the world's largest semiconductor manufacturer and wireless chip supplier. ."
"Their technology and services are world-class. If Hongxin's products can use Qualcomm's chips, there will be no problem with the committee."
Taylor Walker also said: "Not only is there no problem, as long as the chip is no problem, Red Letter is cooperating with the three major operators at the same time, and we will not impose restrictions. If you are interested, I am personally willing to promote the business of Red Letter and Qualcomm. project."
Having said that, how could Lu Zixin not understand. This Taylor Walker is one of the vested interests in the communication industry. If Red Letter successfully cooperates with the three major operators, it will 100% damage the interests of those big capitalists, so this matter is absolutely unworkable.
If they get Red Letter's technology, with the capabilities of American companies, they will soon be able to replicate production. In other words, Red Letter’s smart products are replaced by chips and lose their competitiveness. They are also assured that Red Letter will enter the US market. At the same time, this Taylor Walker can also make a lot of money in the transaction between Red Letter and Qualcomm.
As for AT&T represented by Gru, there must be entanglements of interests, so he also helped to be a lobbyist.
"I refuse!" Lu Zixin did not leave any room for negotiation, and said with certainty: "The Red Letter Group is absolutely impossible to accept such conditions now and in the future!"
Tyler Walker played with the wine glass in his hand, admired the beautiful carcass of the girl in the distance, and said calmly: "If this is the case, Mr. Lu Yan, I think the FCC will regret to announce that the three major operators are banned. Cooperation with Red Letter."
"I advise you to think about it. The U.S. market is so big, and even if the red letter changes with a little cooperation, you can still earn inexhaustible wealth!"
"Even if this is the case!" Lu Zixin snorted coldly, "Hongxin will not compromise! Our products have been licensed for sale, and Hongxin will definitely join the American market!"
Being banned by the FCC from cooperating with telecom operators doesn't mean this phone can't be sold in the US, it can be sold, it's a market rule, because there's no clear evidence that there's a problem with Red Letter's phone, and they don't have the right to ban it Sales of Red Letter products.
The difference is that once the FCC prohibits the three major telecom operators from cooperating with Hongxin, it will be difficult for Hongxin to open up the market. More than 90% of customer resources are in the hands of the three major operators. If these markets are lost, there is no point in selling them.
This is like shopping online. Other online stores have express delivery services. Only your online store does not have express delivery services. Will users buy them? almost no choice.
Taylor Walker laughed and said, "I remember that Huaxia also has a mobile phone manufacturer, Huawei, which was also banned by the Federal Communications Commission from cooperating with the three major operators. Now the sales of this mobile phone in the United States are really dismal."
"But Red Letter is different." Lu Zixin said word by word, "What our Red Letter Group is best at is to make the impossible possible!"
"What can I say? It's a great dream, but unfortunately it's not Huaxia, so you can't realize your Huaxia dream." Tyler Walker joked, "The Federal Communications Commission will hold a voting meeting the day after tomorrow to announce the approval results. If you change If you have an idea, you can contact Gru."
"No need, farewell." Lu Zixin threw his hands away and left. Since they had such an attitude, there was no need to talk about anything. Even Huawei could not accept the conditions, let Hongxin accept it? impossible. However, Huawei had no choice but to silently endure their suppression in the US market, but this does not mean that Hongxin still has no choice!
Gru hurriedly sent Lu Zixin out, and both parties knew that this negotiation had completely collapsed.
