Chapter 104: Cooperation
When people face the unknown, they are inevitably afraid and hesitant, and Liu Suo is no exception.
In these days, there is no concept of integrated motherboards on the market, and every accessory on the home computer is actually installed on the motherboard through the guò interface.
The graphics card is a graphics card; the sound card is a sound card; if you want to watch a VCD, add a video decompression card; if you want to edit the video professionally, use a more expensive DSP decompression card; if you want to do CAD modeling, buy a graphics card with 3D graphics processing capabilities, and then insert a memory module; if you want to set up a local area network, or want to open your eyes to the Internet that has just appeared in China, then add a network card.
In general, qiē configures the computer according to the customer's own needs.
But Hu Yiting understands that in the future, the computer market will be divided into mainstream and high-end markets, the so-called mainstream is the largest sales in the market of those compatible machines and low-end brand machines, almost without exception integrated network card chips, graphics card chips, sound card chips, an integrated motherboard can often save thousands of dollars for users who are shy in their pockets but urgently need to use computers.
Hu Yiting earnestly induced: "What's so unusual about integrating a motherboard? Look at those computers in the seventies and eighties, not to mention the sound card, even the memory is integrated on the motherboard. ”
Liu Chengzhi nodded: "That's the case, I've seen a lot of old computers in the seventies and eighties like this." ”
"Do you still need to hesitate?"
Liu thought about it, felt that the risk was not big, and said with a wry smile: "I was going to discuss the previous patent agreement with you today, but I was persuaded by you to produce a new product.
Hu Yiting said with a smile: "You are a manager, and you have never run away from production and scientific research with your ability, but you have no vision for market demand, and you lack foresight for the future trend of the market, and you also lack the ambition and ruthlessness to develop new technologies and new markets."
Your interest lies in turning your imagination into a super-large-scale computer assembly factory with up to standard product performance, excellent quality, hiring more workers when sales increase, and then assembling more computers, preferably with every small part. ”
Liu Suo's face turned red: "Isn't this good? It not only raises taxes for the country, but also creates a lot of employment opportunities, benefiting the country and the people." ”
Hu Yiting said with some pity: "Very good, very much in line with the standards of our country's excellent manufacturing enterprises in this year, but it is not like a high-tech enterprise." ”
Liu Suo was silent for a while, and finally smiled: "Okay, I'll see what high-tech products you, the little military division, can help Changxiang come up with this time." ”
Hu Yiting hurriedly said: "I want to be discharged from the hospital, let's go back to the computing institute to discuss in detail, since you are willing to cooperate, then it will be without further ado." ”
After speaking, Hu Yiting called Wang Lili and Cao Yunuan, insisted on being discharged from the hospital and returned to the computing office.
Along the way, Hu Yiting was communicating with Liu Suo, and Liu Chengzhi now dared not underestimate Hu Yiting, and had completely regarded him as an adult, and he was a senior computer industry practitioner.
Hu Yiting does not blame Liu for his narrow vision, you must know that China was only allowed to access the Internet by the United States in 1994, and in 95 years, the first Internet access provider for market users in China has just appeared.
In these years, the Internet is basically for domestic scientific research institutes and colleges and universities, ordinary people are nothing more than to use it to log in to several forums in China, of course, they can also log on to foreign English websites, the premise is to be able to understand, but even if they go to the Internet, they can rarely get in touch with advanced scientific and technological information.
At this time, there were basically no professional scientific and technological information services on the domestic Internet, and Liu's vision and knowledge level, like most scientific and technological workers in recent years, were still too young, too simple. Their understanding of the world is still limited to a few domestic magazines and newspapers, as well as some imported periodicals and scientific literature.
Through the dialogue between Guò and Hu Yiting, Liu felt that he was like a fresh wind, carrying information from afar, blowing away his thoughts.
In particular, Hu Yiting is so confident about the future market trend, and he has a very accurate grasp of the core technology of each technology line.
When the car returned to the computing office, Hu Yiting had completely persuaded Liu and decided to do such a vote.
"Since this piece has such great potential, then just do it yourself!" Liu said fiercely.
Hearing that a conservative like Liu Suo suddenly became radical, Hu Yiting laughed.
People are like that, and once truly convinced, conservatives tend to be more radical than enlightened.
Liu sat on his office chair and clenched his fists and said: "Anyway, this is a new product, which belongs to scientific and technological innovation, and since foreigners are optimistic about 3D, there must be a certain market, and the future is promising." ”
Hu Yiting nodded silently.
Liu said: "All new products must have a scientific and technological acceptance, so we must hurry up to make finished products, you have more than 30 chips left in the last tape-out, I think you have to make some samples as soon as possible, and apply for special national financial support." ”
Hu Yiting asked: "Is it a graphics card sample or a motherboard sample?"
"Yes, the sooner the better! You can pick any person in the computing institute, do your best to make things, and then I will contact some experts to hold a product appraisal meeting, conduct a scientific and technological acceptance, and then apply for a project. ”
Hu Yiting cautiously asked, "And then?"
"Then I contacted overseas foundries to produce a batch of chips and bring them back to make products. ”
Hu Yiting slapped his thigh: "It's decided! ”
Liu Suo breathed a sigh of relief: "Hu Yiting, I will gamble on you this time, hoping that this product will have a market! If it fails, I will lose my face, and I imagine that the computer will also suffer." ”
Hu Yiting was extremely disdainful of Liu's small-scale peasant mentality: "Since I claim to be a high-tech company, I can't always follow others and expect to be a risk-free second-hand dealer and make stable money." ”
Liu felt that he couldn't hold his face, and reprimanded: "The risk of innovation is too great, and the technical requirements are too high, I didn't approve of this kind of thing before, after all, we are backward in China, or follow behind others, and it is better to develop mature technologies and products."
This time, if it weren't for your advanced chip and holding all the core patents in my hand, I would not have been able to make this determination. ”
Hu Yiting knows that people like Liu Suo belong to people who don't see devils and don't hang strings, they are extremely risk-averse in character, they are old and serious, and they are especially suitable for being an official, so it's really difficult for him to start a business.
But they still need to borrow the power of Changxiang Group, after all, Changxiang Computer has a very mature market channels and official background, once the product is made, as long as it is indeed a good thing, then the next national procurement is indispensable, and the distribution of goods in the national market is also convenient and fast.
And when it comes to hardware assembly, Changxiang Group has the most advanced PCB production line in the country, once the circuit diagram is designed, it can be put into the board immediately, modified after the sample test, and then put into the board, it can be said that it has the first-class hardware conditions in the country in research and development. At that time, how could Huachuang have such conditions, after the circuit diagram was made, it had to be sent to Hong Kong to be put on the board, the sample was taken back and modified day and night, and then it was taken to Hong Kong for sampling, and it was poured again and again, which was called a bitter force.
If an IC design company can rely on a big tree like Changxiang Group in the early stage, it will definitely save a lot of trouble. What's more, there are still a lot of messy businesses in this year, including the program-controlled telephone exchange project that Hu Yiting values.
This is not a joke, since the dragon group opened the patented technology of 04 switch to domestic enterprises, a large number of enterprises have rushed into the market of digital program-controlled telephone exchanges.
As early as the end of 91, after the China Posts and Telecommunications Corporation and the People's Liberation Army Information Engineering Institute cooperated to develop the HJD-04 program-controlled digital switch, Changxiang Group took advantage of its own strong background to get technical data and develop its own program-controlled switch.
After all, compared with foreign technology, the cost of domestic program-controlled switches per line is more than 200 US dollars lower, and the Wanmen switch is equivalent to 2 million US dollars cheaper LEX5000. At that time, the product used an embedded 286 CPU, PC bus, and c++ programming, and the system and software could be developed for the product directly on the computer. This concept almost coincides with the CC08 of Huachuang later, except for the 286CPU performance used, everything else is basically reliable.
But Liu Chengzhi felt that the communication equipment manufacturing industry needed to invest a lot of money, and with the continuous deepening of technology, a lot of money should be invested in continuous research and development, and 500 doors were upgraded to 1,000 doors, and 1,000 doors were upgraded to 2,000 doors, until 10,000 doors were connected in parallel.
After all, Changxiang's main business is to assemble computers, and what is even more tragic is that Liu Suo saw that the real estate market was hot, and he threw a large amount of money into real estate development, and there was no money to invest in the program-controlled machine, so although the program-controlled machine project of Changxiang Group was the first product in the country, it has been shelved.
At that time, Liu felt that the program-controlled switch, after all, belonged to the territory of another state-owned enterprise Julong Group, and he would definitely not be able to do Julong in terms of technology, so he could be content if he could pass the product acceptance and defraud the state funds.
In 94 years, as Huachuang exhausted a huge amount of money to invest in research and development, and finally made a thunderous CC08 program-controlled switch, and spread it out to sales across the country with great fanfare, Liu Suocai was anxious and found that this piece was simply a gold mine.
So I hurriedly found a Langfang Post and Telecommunications Bureau, sold a LEX5000 program-controlled switch, and earned 2 million yuan, and was stunned to get back the original investment in research and development.
And then...... Then Lao Liu was satisfied again...... Then he lent money to Hong Kong businessmen to set up venture capital companies, and in order to be listed in Hong Kong, he also gave away a large number of shares to Hong Kong businessmen, but those scientific and technological personnel who made great contributions to the imagination did not have any shares at all, and the chief engineer of the program-controlled switch project only received a reward of 3,500 yuan.
Then the communication equipment R&D department of Changxiang made a fuss, and in the end, Lao Liu only scored some shares for everyone. But since the trouble, the communication equipment R&D department has never received financial support.
Then, as Huachuang and ZTE leaped in the market and continued to use new technologies and new products to sharpen the big blade to slash their opponents, the imaginary communication equipment business was never able to turn over, and finally had to end dismally.
Hu Yiting looked at Liu Suo and made a 16-word comment on him in his heart: "Moderate and plain, short-sighted, eager for quick success, he is a sheep." ”
Hu Yiting still likes sheep.
"Then Liu Suo, I want to cooperate with my Chongguang company to jointly develop this product, so that we can share the risk. ”
Liu Suo: "Chongguang Company?Oh, Wang Lili sent me a business card, it turns out that this is your company!"
