Chapter 257: The Talks Collapsed
"There is no problem with our chips, how can we solve it?" Lu Zixin faintly felt that something was wrong.
"Of course, it is fully accepted by the Federal Communications Commission and the National Information Security Department!" Taylor Walker said with a smile, "Attention, it is a full acceptance, not a partial acceptance." ”
"According to the data provided by Hongxin now, we are not sure about the problem yet. More detailed testing information is required. ”
"The information we are submitting now is fully in line with international and federal committee standards, and I wonder what else needs to be added?" Lu Zixin asked.
"Smack!" Taylor Walker snapped his fingers, and a girl fetched a laptop, opened it, and showed it to Lu Zixin.
Lu Zixin only glanced at it a few times, and his brows furrowed, and when he finished reading, his face even had a hint of annoyance.
"This is completely unreasonable!" Lu Zixin said directly, "The information requested here involves our trade secrets, and it is absolutely impossible to provide review!"
The requirements in the laptop are simply a disguised way to let Hongxin tell them Hongxin's chip manufacturing technology!
The most critical part of all Hongxin's smart products can be said to be the red core smart chip! It is relying on this chip that the function of Hongxin smart products can surpass other peers.
Although the other party disguised the requirements as various conditions, Lu Zixin could see at a glance that if these were submitted, and according to the samples of the red core, they could completely restore the red core chip manufacturing technology!
This is so ugly! It's a robbery!
"Don't lose your temper Mr. Lu!" Taylor Walker said with a gentle smile, "It's not my request, it's the request of the committee and the information security department. ”
"Of course, I also know that there is something wrong with such a request. He continued, "Gru and I have been friends for many years, and as a friend, I can personally offer you a viable solution. ”
"What plan?" Lu Zi already felt disgusted in his confidence, and he now found that Gru seemed to have known about the news for a long time, but did not tell him. It seems that Gru and Taylor Walker are the same interest group.
"Since the committee believes that your chip has information security risks, and Hongxin is unwilling to provide these information, then Hongxin's products can be replaced with other smart chips. For example, our Qualcomm chip is good, and many of your mobile phone manufacturers in China use Qualcomm chips. Taylor Walker said.
"Impossible!" Lu Zixin immediately retorted, causing Taylor Walker's face to suddenly turn cold.
"It's ridiculous. Lu Zixin didn't want to chat with him anymore, the two plans proposed by this guy were just nonsense!
The first option, which is to rob them of their technological achievements, is not the slightest possibility. As for the second option, it's even hilarious.
The biggest advantage of Hongxin is its own high-performance chips, if you replace Qualcomm chips, you need to spend a lot of money to Qualcomm not to say, then Hongxin's products can still be called Hongxin?
The mismatched chip will make the performance of the product instantly reach a level with other brands, and some functions will be limited, such as intelligent voice, information processing, etc. At that time, Hongxin's advantage will be gone, let alone compete for the American market.
Seeing that he was angry, Gru hurriedly persuaded: "Mr. Lu, don't get excited, Mr. Walker just said a proposal." In fact, I think this plan is not impossible. Qualcomm is the world's largest semiconductor producer and supplier of wireless chips. ”
"Their technology and services are world-class. If Hongxin's products can use Qualcomm's chips, there will be no problem at all on the committee's side. ”
Taylor Walker also said: "Not only is there no problem, as long as the chip is fine, Hongxin is cooperating with the three major operators at the same time, and we will not make restrictions." If you are interested, I am personally willing to facilitate the business projects of Hongxin and Qualcomm. ”
Having said this, how could Lu Zixin not understand. This Taylor Walker is one of the vested interests in the communications industry, and if Hongxin successfully cooperates with the three major operators, it will 100 percent damage the interests of those big capitalists, so this matter will definitely not work.
If they get the technology of the red letter, with the capabilities of the American company, they will soon be able to replicate production. In other words, Hongxin intelligent products replace chips and lose competitiveness, and they are also assured that Hongxin will enter the US market, and at the same time, this Taylor Walker can also make a lot of money in the transaction between Hongxin and Qualcomm.
As for the AT&T represented by Gru, there must also be entanglements of interests, so he also helped to be a lobbyist.
"I refuse!" Lu Zixin did not leave any room for negotiation, and said with certainty: "Hongxin Group is and will never accept such conditions!"
Taylor Walker played with the wine glass in his hand, admired the beautiful carcass of the girl in the distance, and said calmly: "If this is the case, Mr. Lu Yan, I think the Federal Communications Commission will regret to announce that the cooperation between the three major operators and Hongxin is expressly prohibited. ”
"I advise you to think about it, the U.S. market is so big, even if Hongxin cooperates with a little change, you can make endless wealth!"
"Even if that's true!" Lu Zixin snorted coldly, "Hongxin will not compromise! Our products have been approved for sale, and Hongxin will definitely join the American market!"
Being banned by the FCC from working with a telecom operator does not mean that the phone cannot be sold in the United States, and it is the rule of the market that it can be sold if it is sold, because there is no clear evidence that there is a problem with Hongxin's mobile phone, and they also have no right to prohibit the sale of Hongxin products.
The difference is that once the Federal Communications Commission prohibits the three major telecom operators from cooperating with Hongxin, it will be difficult for Hongxin to open the market. More than 90% of customer resources are in the hands of the three major operators, and there is no point in selling them without losing these markets.
It's like shopping for goods online, other online stores have express delivery services, only your online store does not have express delivery services, will users buy them?
Taylor Walker laughed out loud and said: "I remember that there is another mobile phone manufacturer in Huaxia, Huawei, which was also banned by the Federal Communications Commission from cooperating with the three major operators, and now the sales of this mobile phone in the United States are really dismal." ”
"But red letters are different. Lu Zixin said word by word, "What our Hongxin Group is best at is to make the impossible possible!"
"What can I say? It's a great dream, but unfortunately it's not Huaxia here, and you can't realize your Huaxia dream. Taylor Walker quipped, "There's a voting meeting of the FCC the day after tomorrow to announce the results of the approval, and if you change your mind, you can contact Gru." ”
"No, farewell. Lu Zixin directly shook his hands and left, since they have this attitude, then there is no need to talk about anything. Birch is an unacceptable condition for the red letter to receive? impossible. However, Hua Wei has no choice but to silently endure their suppression in the American market, but this does not mean that Hongxin still has no choice!
Gru hurriedly sent Lu Zixin out, and the two sides knew that this negotiation had completely collapsed.
