Chapter 719: Place a Big Order for TSMC
"Mr. Chen, is it too expensive for us to give up the sinking market?"
To be honest, Wu Kai and Zhou Yifei are a little bit unbearable about Chen Yu's withdrawal from the low-end mobile phone market.
This market was the most important business they entered into the domestic mobile phone field back then, and it was also the business they were most proud of.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yu actually said that he would give up this market.
"Hehe, senior brother, it hurts."
Looking at Wu Kai, Chen Yu smiled.
"It's fake not to feel bad."
Wu Kai said with great heartache: "Although each mobile phone in the low-end market can't make a lot of money, it is a big profit if the volume is large. Now it's really reluctant to let it go."
"There's no need to be reluctant."
Chen Yu is very calm: "We didn't say that we will quit all at once. We will also see the market reaction. When the business we support exceeds our low-end mobile phone business, we can gradually speed up the withdrawal. But if we support If the business fails to pick up, then we will continue to do this market.”
"I told you earlier, Mr. Chen, you scared me to death. When you said it, I thought you would all quit all of a sudden."
"Hehe, it's actually almost the same as quitting all. After a year, our low-end mobile phone business will be replaced by a series of other mobile phone brands."
This other mobile phone brand is the copycat phone that Chen Yu is going to build.
It's just for this business, although it is a huge opportunity for ordinary people, but seriously, some people like Wu Kai are not particularly optimistic, including Zhou Yifei. She also said, "Mr. Chen, are you so optimistic about the mobile phone integration business?"
"The wisdom of the masses is invincible. Although they are temporarily weak, they can create the most suitable mobile phones for Chinese people."
Why are the past life copycats popular?
In addition to low prices, the more important thing is that the cottage does meet the needs of countless users.
It can almost be said that whatever function you want, the cottage can give you any function.
some functions,
He is even more powerful than the functions on some high-end machines.
Even if Huanyu Technology wants to be in the low-end mobile phone market in the future, I am afraid it will not be able to compete with these cottage phones.
certainly.
It's not that Chen Yu doesn't feel sorry for his sinking mobile phone business.
In contrast, to sink the mobile phone market, he values the entire mobile phone ecosystem more.
In the future, if you want not to be strangled by others, then you can only create your own mobile phone ecosystem.
Chip and system This is the first step of Universal Technology.
When the chip and system are completed, Chen Yu will be involved in a series of other mobile phone parts.
Huanyu Technology didn't have many opportunities before.
But taking this opportunity to build a copycat phone, Chen Yu can not only promote his own chips and systems, but also build his entire mobile phone ecosystem. The most important part of this ecology is the mobile phone industry chain.
As long as Huanyu Technology has mastered the entire mobile phone industry chain, not only will he not be afraid of others strangling his neck in the future, on the contrary, Chen Yu can strike first and strangle others.
Just imagine.
In the future, the chip will belong to Chen Yu, and the system will also belong to Chen Yu.
The battery belongs to Chen Yu, and the speakers and camera belong to Chen Yu.
Even if these are not Chen Yu's, Chen Yu is also the world's largest supplier of mobile phone accessories.
If you want to strangle me, I will punish you in minutes.
This is the real reason why Chen Yu is willing to give up sinking the low-end mobile phone market.
"By the way, Mr. Chen, if this is the case, the production capacity of Center International may not be able to keep up."
The business of Center International was not very large before, so the overall production capacity was not high.
Later, although the production capacity was expanded after the Tianwen chip came out, the expansion could not keep up with the market demand.
Especially after the emergence of the second generation of Tianwen, almost all domestic mobile phone manufacturers have placed orders for Huanyu Technology.
In addition, there is also the cottage business that is now supported by Universal Technology.
Don't look at the number of copies of these copycat machines, some only have 10,000 orders, 20,000 orders, and 30,000 orders.
But there are many people who call it a cottage machine.
Hundreds of thousands of orders came in at once, even if one order only made 10,000 mobile phones, his volume was extremely terrifying.
This is also the reason why Chen Yu must think that the cottage has the opportunity to occupy the market.
These people dare to place so many orders, they have the ability to sell these fake mobile phones.
Even if the market is not competitive, they will use other methods to sell.
Moreover, some of these copycat manufacturers are still personal studios, and some of them do not even register companies.
This also has a huge advantage in taxation.
Of course, the superiors also know it, but although they know it, they won't care for the time being.
It's like a private small business, although it looks like you have to pay taxes, but generally few people pay taxes.
"It is."
Chen Yu nodded.
The production capacity of Center International could not keep up, so they could only place orders for other foundry companies.
However, after all, it is a strategic partnership with Center International, and Chen Yu is still a major shareholder. Zhou Yifei doesn't know what Chen Yu is thinking.
"What did President Zhang say at Center International?"
"President Zhang didn't say anything."
"Then give TSMC a chip processing order."
"TSMC is the most important competitor of Center International. It's not good to place an order for them."
"It's okay, I'll go talk to President Zhang."
In fact, it is not necessary to say this.
Zhang Rujing's gas volume is still quite large, and the center's international production capacity cannot keep up for the time being, so it is impossible to keep waiting there.
You can only find other OEM companies.
And now there are foundry capabilities, one is TSMC, one is Samsung, and several are European and American companies.
And TSMC surpasses Samsung and other chip foundries in terms of foundry level and cost performance.
Of course, Chen Yu didn't really want to place an order for TSMC.
He can keep a hand here.
Before that, Chen Yu had always wanted to dig Lin Benjian, but unfortunately he had not been able to do so.
Chen Yu knew that the biggest reason for this was that Lin Benjian still pinned his hopes on TSMC.
That being the case, Chen Yu dashed Lin Benjian's hope.
It's just that Lin Benjian didn't know about the show that Chen Yu was doing.
At this time, he was still researching wet lithography in the laboratory.
In his opinion, the reason why Zhang Zhongmou did not agree is because he only provided a theory and the entire technology is not yet perfect.
There are also specific formulas and performance parameters that have not been given.
It is indeed very risky to enter this rashly.
As a master of technology, what he is most proud of is his technical strength.
As long as a series of important parameters are studied, he believes that Zhang Zhongmou will definitely consider it seriously.
