Chapter 1841: Pruning and Strengthening the Trunk
To be honest, the senior executives of Dongxu Technology are not very willing to cut out the mobile phone technology patents and computer technology patents.
After all, these technologies are all developed by all the staff of Dongxu Technology with great effort, not to mention the time and energy spent.
Now that all these technologies are cut out, I suddenly feel like a father marrying his daughter, and it is also the feeling of an old father-in-law who is not very confident about Honor Mobile Phone, the son-in-law.
Although Honor Mobile Phone is now the world's number one, suppressing international giants such as Samsung and Apple as the boss. But for the senior executives of Dongxu Technology, Honor Mobile Phone is actually a little bit looked down upon.
After all, Honor Mobile Phone's smartphone technology and smartphone system are separated from Dongxu Technology.
And whether it is smartphone hardware technology patents or smartphone system patents, in the reserve library of Dongxu Technology's intellectual property patents, at most it is only the first-class, but definitely not the highest-class technology.
At present, Dongxu Technology's R&D projects include chips below 10 nanometers or superconducting materials. Or special steels or heavy machinery with national strategic significance, as well as some aerospace material research and development and fighter engine projects.
Any of these technologies would be a sensation in the world, much more amazing than a smartphone. You should know that Dongxu Technology has a say in the semiconductor field all over the world.
This is why the Morgan Consortium only dared to test some marginal products of Dongxu Technology instead of fighting a semiconductor war right from the start. Because if they really fight, Dongxu Technology will suffer heavy losses, and they will not win easily, and it is even possible that others will take advantage of them.
"It is imperative to cut some technologies, not just smartphone and computer patents. Television technology, VCD technology that has no prospects, etc.
A batch of R&D projects have been successful, or the R&D projects have to be stopped or transferred out. The previous multi-faceted development made the stall too big.
Now the basic technology of many domestic companies has risen. It is no longer the era before that we have to build a farm ourselves if we want to eat chicken, otherwise there will be nothing to eat.
So some mid-to-low-end technology research and development, and even mid-to-high-end alternative R&D projects must be terminated. All resources should be concentrated on heavy industry, aerospace, photovoltaic power generation, wind power generation, and even plastic degradation environmental protection projects.
In short, Dongxu Technology needs to take the boutique route in the future. No matter what we develop, we only pick the best, and leave the basic things to others."
In the conference room of Dongxu Technology, Yang Dongxu pointed to the picture in the projector behind him and drew a circle with the laser pen in his hand.
The projection content is the framework of all the current R&D projects of Dongxu Technology. To be honest, Dongxu Technology's technology R&D stall was indeed too big and too arbitrary in the past.
For example, in computer technology, Yang Dongxu was interested in CPU, graphics card and other high-threshold technologies at the beginning. Later, because he could not get a photolithography machine and the technical level was not up to the standard, he had to settle for hard disk.
Later, when he was developing, he somehow achieved certain results on the computer motherboard, so he also developed the motherboard.
After the motherboard was developed, he found that the computer battery and optical drive were also made. Then he started to develop the Pangu system independently.
In short, the previous research and development was too arbitrary. If there was some achievement in any aspect, an expert group would be directly established to start the project. As a result, Dongxu Technology now has thousands of research and development projects of all sizes in progress at the same time, which is not just a waste of money and resources.
In the past, these were not rectified because the domestic industrial and technological foundations were very weak. If he did not do it himself, no one would supply him.
It is different now. Compared with the past, China's industrial foundation has made great progress, and the technology of various foundries has also caught up.
Dongxu Technology has many technical research and development projects with low technical barriers, although it is also profitable. But compared with those high-tech research and development, whether in terms of grade or future expectations, it is not a little bit worse.
Even if we don't look at the future, don't look at the technical threshold and difficulty, just in terms of cost performance. To be honest, the profits of these small technologies are a great pleasure for ordinary companies.
But for a giant like Dongxu Technology, it is really tasteless. Because Dongxu Technology has too many good cards in its hand. Apart from anything else, the research and development of artificial intelligence and intelligent mechanization alone is more promising than getting a computer optical drive.
Watching the laser pen in Yang Dongxu's hand constantly drawing circles on the projection screen, many people in the conference room looked unhappy, and even a few were hesitant to speak.
It is true that these technologies do not have much research and development value, and they can't keep up with the pace of the giant Dongxu Technology.
But it is really painful to cut so many out at once, especially these research and development projects are not burning money without returns. Every project here is profitable and still has research and development value. It feels like a prodigal son to just cut it off like this.
As if sensing the atmosphere in the conference room, Yang Dongxu kept drawing with the laser pen in his hand, as if he was stabbing a knife in the hearts of many company executives, especially the technical experts in charge of R&D projects.
He paused and cleared his throat, then changed his tone slightly, "Of course, the reorganization of R&D projects is not a matter of cutting it off. We must stop everything after the meeting here.
Some projects that are about to produce results, some projects that can be sold at a good price. Now major domestic companies are crying out for valuable technologies.
For these R&D technology projects, Manager Ye will coordinate to find a good in-law for them. If it doesn't work, people who are willing to take charge of the project can continue to develop.
However, this kind of R&D is self-financing. In addition to the part of the profit that the company takes, you can invest the rest in your own R&D projects.
Dongxu Technology Headquarters will no longer allocate any funds for this project, and will also withdraw some technical personnel who want to go to other projects. So you have to think clearly about how to choose. "
After Yang Dongxu said this, many people's faces changed again, although after some explanation, the means of cutting projects would not be so blunt.
It also gives a way out to those technical personnel who only know how to develop the current project and cannot transfer to other projects. But this way is obviously not as good as relying on the big tree of Dongxu Technology.
Even if it is not done well, the technology of the R&D project will not be able to break through and update, and their own jobs will become a problem.
Of course, having a problem with food is the worst result for now. With these R&D projects that still have certain technical thresholds, no matter which company they find to cooperate with, the welfare and even salary of R&D personnel will be increased.
Yang Dongxu has never been a stingy person, especially for technical personnel.
I really don't want to start over from other projects. A considerable breakup fee or technology transfer fee is certain.
Therefore, even if there are still many people in the conference room who are unhappy, they decided to endure it temporarily because of Yang Dongxu's generosity and see if there is any other room for operation later.
