Chapter 34 Undercurrent surges, Kunpeng Meilan lifts purchase restrictions

As Lin Xiaolong’s fate was explained, more and more bloggers also forwarded it and expressed their opinions in the comment area.

[Little Broken Station—Qiangzi]:”Brother Long’s analysis is good. Although there is not much difference between the numerical values of 20 nanometers and 28 nanometers, the performance of the two is absolutely different.”

[The second brother of Huaqiangbei]:”No one has gotten the actual chip yet, but from the perspective of 20nm alone, it has already surpassed the 28nm process chip.”

[Society, Brother Mao]:”I already have a hunch that Longxing Technology’s current position in the sinking market will be affected. Poor processor chip performance is the Achilles’ heel of the Longxing X1 mobile phone, and Gaotong is targeting the Achilles’ heel.”

The fate of the blogger has been discussed by netizens, and the popularity of the topic continues to rise.

After a while

It came to the top of the hot search list

What puzzles many people is that the reputation of Gaotong has changed after the release of the Snapdragon 810 processor.

Some people believe that Gaotong’s purchase restrictions on Longxing Technology, Kunpeng, and Meilan are just normal business games. What does it have to do with their users?

They just come to buy mobile phones and do not participate in the competition between companies. They will buy whoever is cheap and easy to use. The boycott of Gaotong chips has nothing to do with them.

Some people believe that although Gaotong’s competitive methods are despicable, their Snapdragon processors are really not bad, and they are willing to pay for high-performance processors.

There are different opinions on the Internet, everyone is expressing their own opinions

However, the performance of Snapdragon processors is indeed powerful. Apart from Apple’s A-series processors and Korean Star Group’s Orion processors, there are no competitors.

As for MediaTek…

It has always wanted to compete with the Snapdragon processor, but what is the result?

MediaTek MT6592 processor was exposed to be a fake eight-core processor. One core is working and seven cores are watching. In addition to increasing power consumption, there is no performance improvement at all. Now it has become a joke on the entire Internet, and even the reputation of the Longxing X1 mobile phone has been harmed.

Being able to create a fake eight-core device to fool the public shows how poor its scientific research team is, at least it is very poor at the moment!

Excluding MediaTek processors, Apple’s A-series processors and Orion processors are not supplied externally, and the entire mobile phone processor chip market can only be dominated by Gaotong.

After the Snapdragon 810 processor became a hot topic, various mobile phone manufacturers in Longguo finally found opportunities.

……

LeTV corporate headquarters

meeting room

“The Snapdragon 810 processor has been announced, and the negotiation team went to talk immediately. We must get the supply order for me as soon as possible!”

“The R&D department immediately set up a project. LeTV’s new flagship will be a gaming phone, and the heat dissipation and performance will be improved!”

Mr. Jia spoke with great momentum, as if he had found an outlet to vent his anger.

During this period of time, he was extremely jealous when he saw Longxing Technology making money. If it wasn’t for his lack of strength, he would have ended up fighting for a share.

the other side

Rice Company Headquarters

Rebus also sensed business opportunities and urgently set up a project to build a high-performance flagship. It also needed to increase investment in heat dissipation and performance.

CEOs of mobile phone manufacturers such as Hammer, Lianxiang, Coolpad, and Blue and Green Factory have all sensed business opportunities and started establishing new flagship projects, preparing to make money.

All mobile phone manufacturers are like jackals and tigers, all eyeing prospective college students.

But the bosses are not stupid either. Who can beat Longxing Technology in the price war?

They have to pay patent fees to use 4G baseband chips. Chen Xing does not have patent fees to use Kaitian baseband chips, so they can only use their strengths and avoid weaknesses and start establishing projects in the mobile phone segment.

The subdivision of mobile phones is simply a clearer official identification of mobile phone use.

For example, gaming phones, what do users value?

no doubt

Cooling and gaming performance!

Mobile phone manufacturers will cut budgets elsewhere to cover the costs of processor chips and cooling systems as much as possible

Because gaming phones are just for playing games. What you need is heat dissipation and performance. As long as other functions can be used.

Another example is camera phones

It is positioned to take photos. Do users need to use the Snapdragon 810 processor?

The answer is that it can be used, but not much, which is equivalent to excess performance!

If the budget for purchasing the Snapdragon 810 processor is used to fill the lens, wouldn’t it be more palatable to this type of user to focus on pixel improvements?

Gaotong CEO Mollenkopf had already thought of the path that manufacturer CEOs wanted to take, so he announced four processor chips with different needs at once.

Do you want gaming performance?

20nm, 4+4 octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor meets your needs!

Do you want to take a photo?

Snapdragon 615 processor is the best choice!

Do you want a cheap backup machine?

Snapdragon 410 and 210 processors are born for the sinking market!

Originally, the bosses of mobile phone manufacturers still wanted to sit back and watch the tigers fight during the summer vacation, but Gaotong Company issued an”airdrop”. How could they let go of this opportunity?

Businessmen, profit comes first!

……

Longxing Technology Company

Originally, Chen Xing was still inspecting R&D work in SEG Technology Park, but a call from his secretary forced him to rush back to the company.

conference room

Shareholders have arrived early

After Chen Xing sat down, a shareholder immediately revealed the inside information:

“Mr. Shao, according to reliable internal information from other companies, manufacturers such as Rice, Coolpad, Hammer, and Lianxiang have already initiated mobile phone projects and are preparing to design mobile phones in segmented fields.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the next shareholder immediately took over:

“Mr. Young, Gaotong Company has released the purchase restriction lists of Kunpeng Company and Meilan Company, but we are the only ones who are still on the purchase restriction list of Gaotong Company. This time it seems that they are coming for us!”

“Mr. Shao, among the four Snapdragon processors announced by Gaotong, the Snapdragon 810 processor is a 20nm process chip. It is very likely that other manufacturers will launch mobile phones focusing on the gaming field to target our shortcomings in gaming performance!”

“Mr. Shao, with the Snapdragon 810 processor, Gaotong’s reputation has gradually picked up on the Internet. The MediaTek MT6592 processor has been labeled as a fake eight-core processor, and we have also been slightly implicated.”

Various news came one after another. Chen Xing’s expression remained the same as before. There was no trace of panic on his face, but his eyes were more solemn.

Four processor chips were released at once, including a 20-nanometer Snapdragon 810 processor, and the chip purchase restrictions of Kunpeng and Meilan were lifted. This clearly wanted to bring down other mobile phone manufacturers and compete with Longxing. Technology competes for market share

At present, the shortcoming of Longxing X1 mobile phone is the processor chip

The MediaTek MT6592 processor it uses is not only a fake eight-core processor, but its manufacturing process is only 28 nanometers.

The chip nanometer refers to the gate width of the silicon wafer, the smallest unit of the chip. The smaller the nanometer number, the higher and more advanced the process, and the more difficult it is to manufacture.

If we compare chips to factories, then in a factory with the same area, whoever can accommodate more workers and equipment will naturally have higher production capacity. This is why the chip field is pursuing small nanometers.

When the mobile phone market was undercurrent and various manufacturers were actively”preparing for war”, far away at the MediaTek headquarters on Longguobao Island, Gaotong CEO Molenkov met with MediaTek CEO Cai Mingjie, and the two successfully reached a consensus.

Before leaving, Mollenkopf, who was wearing a custom-made slim suit and elegant temperament, stretched out his right hand and said with a faint smile:

“I hope we can cooperate happily, you and I share DSP multi-core architecture technology”
