Chapter 627: Jumping Ship

Shit. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

This is the only feeling in the hearts of Jude Law and others.

DEC is a company with annual sales of $13 billion, Intel is the world's most advanced semiconductor company, IBM is known as the blue giant, Texas Instruments is not only a semiconductor company, but also an arms dealer, and Dell Computer is the fastest-growing PC sales company.

Together, these companies account for almost half of the semiconductor industry in the United States.

What is Qualcomm? Compared to these companies, it doesn't even have an elephant-to-ant ratio.

Qualcomm can influence the FCC because other semiconductor companies don't have access to the communications industry. Motorola, on the other hand, does not care at all what standards the United States adopts -- no standard can be adopted without circumventing its interests.

It is in the midst of this gap that Qualcomm has achieved a seemingly strong influence.

And once these American semiconductor giants find a channel to reach in, Qualcomm can't even drink the soup.

Now Hu Wenhai has handed them such a channel, after opening up the CDMA technology patent authorization to these IT companies, they can develop their own CDMA technology on this basis.

As a result, there is no longer a reason for the FCC to deny the adoption of CDMA technology in the United States.

On the contrary, once the US market is lost, the GSM standard is now in jeopardy.

Just as the Chinese market cannot afford to feed a standard, today's European market cannot afford a set of standards.

The result of losing the US market is not just the loss of the US market, but the dominoes falling the first one. In the face of competition from companies such as DEC, Intel, IBM and TI, Europe's five largest telecom providers can't help but be a little scared.

Hu Wenhai's move is really wonderful, and it is also in line with his consistent style.

Introduce the dragon to smash the field of the head snake on the ground, break the balance of power that has been formed, and then use the strength to fight and fish in troubled waters.

The CDMA technology mastered by ST has become a key channel for US IT companies to enter the field of communications, and it has naturally become a key point for the convergence of the two markets. The more profits these computer companies make in the field of communications and the bigger the market, the greater the influence and benefits of Xinke, and the closer they are integrated with them, and the more solid their position is.

Inherently invincible.

This is much more advantageous and reliable than cooperating with European telecommunications companies.

Jude Law and the others obviously thought of this, and couldn't help but look at each other. They really didn't expect that Hu Wenhai would make such a move.

This misconception is not surprising, although they are all in the semiconductor field, but the distance between the computer and communication industry is still very large.

Throughout the 2G era in history, it is true that no computer companies have entered the field of mobile communications. The only companies that can grasp the market are GSM Alliance and professional communication technology companies.

The first computer companies to eat the crab of mobile communications may be traced back to the era when Steve Jobs released the Apple mobile phone.

In the era of smart phones, the past communication industry enterprises have withdrawn from the market and ceded their positions to emerging computer companies.

In the era when 3G smart phones completely occupy the market, it is even more embarrassing to look back at the initiators of the GSM Alliance.

The former hegemon Nokia was acquired by Microsoft, and Ericsson's joint venture with Sony could not save the collapsed sales performance, and finally became a patent robber. Alcatel was so mixed in the era of smart phones that it could only sell cordless phones, and Philips was even more miserable, and the result of the rampant OEM was that the brand was completely smashed. As for Motorola, as early as the 2G era, it has already fulfilled Nokia's prestige with its own corpse.

It can be seen that once computer companies enter the field of mobile communications, these GSM communication companies are simply powerless.

Thirty years later, only Apple and Samsung will be able to surpass Chinese companies in mobile phone manufacturing.

Looking at the international market, Chinese mobile phone companies are not targeting anyone, but saying that everyone in old Europe - the whole TM is garbage.

There is not a single one who can fight.

But in the end, computer companies beat communication companies to enter the mobile field, and that was after Steve Jobs released the Apple phone.

Prior to this, the communications companies had no idea that the cheese on their plates would be remembered by the computer companies.

It's like a cross talk actor suddenly running to make a movie, and his performance is more dedicated and professional than the vast majority of movie actors.

Who would have thought that Feng Gong would go to make a movie, and his acting skills would not be lost to professional film actors at all, and he would be even higher than a group of small fresh meat and idols.

That's embarrassing.

Jude Law and the others were confused in their hearts, originally came to give Hu Wenhai the final blow, waiting for the harvest victory.

only to find that the little white rabbit they thought was squatting behind a group of Siberian tigers, or Siberian tigers that were fat into cats.

This is inevitably a little confusing.

Europe itself is a colony of the United States, and the semiconductor industry is tied together, and it does not have the technological and capital capabilities of IBM and Intel in front of them.

"This, I think Mr. Hu misunderstood. ”

Jude Law's mind turned quickly, and he hurriedly said: "For the establishment of a new joint venture with Xinke, I have been authorized by the head office, and it can be carried out in accordance with the previously agreed conditions." ”

Jude Law's words woke up the dreamer, at this time, don't say anything about controlling Xinke Electronics, it's already very good to be able to get CDMA and mobile phone manufacturing technology!

There were some reluctant joint venture conditions before, but now it seems that it is clear that the new science and technology university is compassionate. After this village, there is no such shop, so let's seize the benefits at hand first!

"It's late. ”

Hu Wenhai smiled.

"We Chinese have an old saying, called 'early birds have worms to eat', even if you sell your body early, everyone!"

"It's not fair!"

Jude Law was anxious and narrowed his eyes: "You gave the condition before, and now we unify this condition, why do you regret it again?"

"I gave you a chance. ”

Hu Wenhai shook his head and looked back at Olsen and the others: "Why do you think I did this, because ......"

"Because Philips has already decided to stand on the side of the ST Group. ”

Glitter Philips suddenly stood up, bowed slightly to the crowd gracefully, and then turned around and sat down behind Hu Wenhai.

Jude Law and Swinbour and the others were stunned as if they had been struck by lightning once.

β€œwhat!”

Jude Law's tone and expression, when he shouted this word, the meaning could no longer be simply described as "what" in Chinese.

It felt like seeing a female cos I had always liked very much in the men's bathroom, and my voice was full of desperation......

β€œwhy!”

In the face of Jude Law's desperate inquiry, Glitter seemed to be a little unbearable and said: "China's information superhighway plan is advancing, and in the future, it will purchase more than one billion dollars of optical fiber products, as well as its production equipment and technology from Philips. And when it comes to the GSM alliance, Philips doesn't have that much at stake. Philips' coding technology can also have a place in the CDMA field. ”

Philips is a company, how to say it, it can probably be regarded as the "Grumman" in Europe.

The two companies can almost be regarded as "co-spies".

Since Philips entered China in 1985, it has always ignored the blockade agreements against China such as Batumi. Of course, it doesn't mean that Philips can do it against Batumi with such a cowhide.

Rather, it operates in areas such as medical equipment and teaching, electronics, household appliances and other products, and Philips has always been reluctant to put technology and production into joint ventures in China.

In the 21st century, Philips' turnover in China is very high, but Philips China's export volume is also the highest among foreign companies.

As long as there is money to be made, Philips doesn't care which basket the products and technologies are put in, which is what a true multinational company is all about – profit alone is the source of decision-making, not bias or whatever.

And Philips is not so resolute in the communication industry, for example, Philips entered the mobile communication industry in history and began to manufacture mobile phones, and it was not until 1995 that Philips went through a huge restructuring process.

Prior to this, Philips had a large business area and produced a wide variety of products. After restructuring and streamlining, Philips divested a large number of non-core product brands. Handed over to an affiliate like Caterpillar Philips or simply a method of bidding for rent, OEM and so on, the loss-making and low-profitability business was abandoned.

After that, Philips had the energy to enter the communications industry. Prior to this, Philips held core patents in the GSM Alliance, mainly focusing on coding technologies such as audio compression.

However, these encoding technologies were originally developed for Philips' audio-visual records and other products, and being able to enter the GSM alliance is purely a bargain, not that it has great ambitions in the communications industry.

Or it can be said that before the communications industry showed its power, Philips did not value it as a core business.

In this way, China extended an olive branch and threw a billion-dollar order to Philips China, and it really didn't have too much psychological pressure to betray its allies.

After listening to Glitter's explanation, the others were still in a state of confusion.

But it turns out that people like Jude Law who climbed up from the bottom do have unique abilities.

I saw that he suddenly put away the shocked expression on his face, looked at Hu Wenhai seriously and formally, and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Hu, on behalf of Ericsson, I hope to make a request. ”

"Huh?"

"Please allow Ericsson to join the CDMA90 Alliance!"

Swain turned his head mechanically and looked at Jude Law, who had decisively abandoned the GSM Alliance. His mouth widened and his eyes widened, as if he saw that he had worked so hard to board a broken ship whose captain was going to jump ship.

However, anyone on this ship can jump, but he is the only one.
