Chapter Seven Hundred and Twentieth: A Huge Crisis
However, if you just don't use Huanyu Technology's chips, then these big guys don't have to sit together.
These companies have long since formed a tacit understanding.
Just as asml does not sell the most advanced lithography machines to China, they will also restrict the Chinese side.
Although there was some embarrassment this time, it turned into a boycott of Tianwen 2 generation chips together.
You know, they have always restricted others before.
As for boycott, it has always been synonymous with the weak.
The reason why they are sitting together is that there is a more important thing than boycotting Tianwen 2nd generation chips.
They do know.
Their boycott of Tianwen 2 didn't do much.
They don't have to be their business, but there are so many mobile phone companies in China, and the orders placed by China to Huanyu Technology are enough to make Huanyu Technology a lot of money. Not to mention, Huanyu Technology has also developed a mobile phone integration solution, so that ordinary people can make mobile phones. Although they are not optimistic about this plan, they only think that this is a hole dug by Huanyu Technology for others. The purpose is to sell their chips. As for whether these people can do it, it has nothing to do with Huanyu Technology.
And the most important thing, that is, it is necessary to prevent Huanyu Technology from becoming too big.
"Everyone, in addition to what I just said, let's talk about Universal Technology. This company has always been in the Internet business. Although it later entered the mobile phone field, we didn't pay much attention to it. However, looking at it now, This company is different from ordinary companies, and if we sit back and watch it, it will be our strong competitor in the future.”
The Motorola chief continued.
Motorola is not only competing with Huanyu Technology in terms of chips.
Similarly, in the field of consumer mobile phones, it also competes with Huanyu Technology.
And in the previous competition, Motorola was losing one after another.
Of course, it's not just Motorola. In this case, the most affected is Nokia.
Originally, Nokia seemed to be the largest mobile phone manufacturer in China, but then a Universal Technology came out, but it robbed Nokia of a series of markets.
The first is the low-end market.
Then there's the midrange.
And it's not just Huanyu Technology that is robbing it.
With the support of Tianwen chips, a series of other Chinese mobile phone manufacturers have also begun to seize Nokia's market.
"Huanyu Technology's ambitions are not small, we should pay attention to it."
"Yes, Huanyu Technology is making more and more moves in the field of mobile phones, we can't let him sit big."
"We must join hands to give Huanyu Technology and mobile phone manufacturers in China a serious blow."
Sony, Ericsson... and other mobile phone companies are also nodding their heads.
They had the same problem with Nokia and with Motorola.
Motorola was just a proposal, and the mobile phone manufacturers quickly reached a consensus.
As for the actions of these big guys, it will not be known by outsiders.
It's just that although it was not known to outsiders, the revenge of these global brand mobile phone manufacturers came quickly.
The first is the battery.
Sony, Sanyo, Panasonic... These traditional battery giants announced price increases for the first time.
Next, the memory block.
Siemens, Toshiba, Infineon, Hitachi... also announced that they will decide to increase prices because of the rising cost of raw materials and labor.
That's not all.
In terms of sensors, a series of companies in the United States have also announced price increases.
In the LCD display, Sharp, LG, and Samsung also announced price increases.
If it's just one business announcing a price hike, that's fine.
These companies have joined forces to raise prices, which is a deadly threat to domestic mobile phone companies.
"Damn it, these mobile phone companies have joined forces to raise prices."
"Batteries go up, memory goes up, and sensors go up... This way, our manufacturing costs will double directly."
"How do you fight this?"
For a moment, many domestic mobile phone companies just felt like they were going to die.
"Mr. Chen, have you received the news that the prices of major mobile phone components have increased substantially."
The first time, the mobile phone manufacturers contacted Chen Yu.
"received."
Chen Yu frowned.
Naturally he also received the news.
"Mr. Chen, what do you think?"
"It is estimated that we were targeted by these mobile phone companies."
Although I don't know the reason, it is obvious that they were killed by these mobile phone companies.
Don't look at these mobile phone companies just selling mobile phones, in fact their influence is extremely terrifying.
Not to mention other companies, just Sony, Aisin, and Siemens.
They sell mobile phones themselves, and also produce a series of mobile phone components.
Like batteries and memory, they are all involved.
The consumer terminal mobile phone can't play with you, so I will play with the upstream industry.
"Mr. Chen, should we contact the boss?"
"It's no use getting in touch."
Chen Yu shook his head.
Generally, in this case, when there is no way, you can only contact the head.
Because only the top can solve it by other means.
It's just that Chen Yu knows that this kind of thing is not so easy to solve.
Look at the strength of these companies joining hands, and it involves more than just one company.
He has dozens of brands, involving the interests of dozens of countries.
Although the above is not necessarily impossible to solve, it is also quite troublesome.
Even if the superiors come forward, the other party will say that this is the commercial behavior of major mobile phone manufacturers, and they will not interfere.
In fact.
It's really hard for you to intervene.
These mobile phone manufacturers are also completely commercial means.
Can't I raise the price of something I make myself?
Of course, if this is put into later generations, it is useless for these companies to use these means.
Because of a series of components of these enterprises, domestic production has been fully realized.
But it's still 2005.
A range of components can only be imported.
Fortunately, the battery has already started in China, and BYD has done a good job.
But BYD is doing well, but their volume has not yet increased, and they cannot supply all domestic mobile phone manufacturers.
In other words, you still have to use these foreign battery brands.
If you don't use it, that's fine, you can't even produce a mobile phone.
Therefore, in the past life, many companies faced competition from foreign groups, and only oneself knew the taste of it.
As for the memory, there is no other way, basically it can only be imported.
And this trick has always been controlled by people in previous lives.
For a company like Samsung, he often uses memory to raise prices, even two or three times a year.
It wasn't until later that Ziguang came up with ddr4 memory sticks that the situation improved a lot.
As for the LCD screen, it is more dependent on imports.
In this case, LCD panel manufacturing companies such as BOE in the future have to get up to avoid their suppression.
The various sound sensors behind, image and phase sensors... must also be imported in large quantities.
Although Chen Yu knows that in the future, these domestic companies are not afraid of them.
But the future is the future, and now is really a big problem.
