Chapter 822 - High-end mobile phones
Strictly speaking, it is the highest grade, even if there is a little gap in price and function, it cannot be too bad. If the average user can clearly feel that there is a gap in the functionality, then it will definitely not work.
"Continue to bargain with Qualcomm, and MediaTek will also contact to see how their chips function. If Qualcomm can't speak clearly, use MediaTek's, maybe some of the functional designs need to be modified. Tan Zongqin said.
"Okay. Geng Mian replied.
"Samsung rejected us so decisively, it was too shameful for me not to purchase any parts from Samsung in the future, and to look for new and better suppliers for all parts. Tan Zongqin said.
"As a result, transportation costs may go up. Guo Qi said.
In the past, the reason why they chose Samsung was not because they liked South Korea, but because South Korea was relatively close to JS Province.
Now Tan Zongqin wants to change suppliers because he is angry, but Guo Qi does not want to increase the cost because of this.
"The chips don't use theirs, and other components can be completely replaced from the mainland or in the corner, and they are not afraid to be a little farther away. Tan Zongqin did not change suppliers entirely because he was angry, but the cost performance of Samsung's components began to decrease.
These Koreans are like this, they don't know where they get their confidence, they think that everyone else is stupid, and they have to buy their things if they reduce the cost performance.
Tan Zongqin is not stupid, he only went to it once when he wanted to cut off contact with Samsung, and the chip incident was just an excuse for him.
"The headquarters asked us to expand the LCD screen business, mainly in the field of computer television, and hoped that the LCD screen could become a major industry of the company. We spend a lot of money to develop screen technology, and the money we make from selling mobile phones is obviously not enough. Guo Qi did not object again, and moved on to the next topic.
"No problem, I have long wanted to expand new business, tomorrow I will personally go to Yanjing Technology Company to talk to Fu Lao about the research and development of related technologies. Tan Zongqin's spirits lifted.
In the future, the profit from selling mobile phones will definitely become thinner, and perhaps it will be more profitable to sell components.
Before his own chips come out and are recognized by the market, Tan Zongqin does not expect to make money like Apple for the time being.
"Our self-developed camera can also be used in low-end mobile phones, and the cost can be reduced a lot by completing a self-produced component again. Guo Qi said.
The two major components that Jiangyan invested in the early stage were the screen and the camera, the former invested more, so it could be installed very early, while the latter invested less.
After more than three years of research and development, Yanjing Technology Company finally made a qualified camera, which also bypassed some current key patents and used a lot of new technologies.
Today's achievements are all due to the technical personnel and advanced equipment that Hang Yu dug from various developed countries during the financial crisis in 08. If it weren't for Hang Yu's foresight and layout at any cost during the financial crisis, even if he could develop a screen and camera, it would never be so fast.
The most important thing is the research and development of new technologies and new materials, and it is particularly difficult to bypass key patents. It took people decades to make mature technology, and it is obviously impossible to catch up in just a few years.
The technical level of the newly developed camera is lower than the screen, and it can only be used in thousand-yuan machines or lower-end mobile phones. But that's enough, at present, in the world, the low-end market is still very large.
"Build the production line as soon as possible, and if you can't catch up with the new mobile phone, you will find a dumb OEM. Tan Zongqin said.
"Understood. Guo Qi replied.
The crooked foundry industry is very powerful, and chip screens and everything can be foundry.
Probably this is the only benefit that the stupid bend has not returned, and the high-end technology embargoed by the West can be obtained by the stupid bend. And China can get temporary convenience by being stupid, which can be regarded as a curve to save the country.
Of course, this temporary convenience is definitely not long-lasting, and it is easy to paralyze the mentality of domestic independent research and development.

According to the survey, a considerable number of middle-aged and elderly mobile phone users are more inclined to use voice conversations, on the one hand, family conversations, the voice is more realistic, and on the other hand, they are not good at typing.
So Jiashu plans to optimize voice conversations and video social networking, but there are some differences in the direction of optimization.
"Cats are going to launch a family mobile phone, which is specially equipped with the software of family letters. The main people who use family mobile phones are the elderly and children, and I think that voice conversations and video socialization should be as simple as possible. In addition to ensuring the smooth operation of family letters, it is also considered that children and the elderly have weak operating ability, and in case of accidents, redundant functions may affect their operation. Bai Fu said.
"I don't think so, children like new and interesting things, and the elderly often have a childlike heart. We should consider their usual interactions and design more interesting features to add fun to family socialization. As for the unexpected situation you mentioned, it is a very rare case after all, and we can solve it with the automatic alarm and contact function. Jiang Xuanyi said.
These two are the leaders of the main functional design and development of the family letter, and in the process of developing the family letter, they often argue because of the disagreement of ideas, and in the end, it is still the decision of Piny Malaysia.
However, this controversy made Pony Ma hesitate, because he was more inclined to Jiang Xuanyi's design plan, but according to the original design concept of the family letter, it was obvious that Bai Fu's plan was right.
At the beginning of the design concept, the most important thing is that it is easy to operate, and other Internet products also pay attention to easy operation, but the family letter is more extreme to ensure that the elderly and children can get started quickly.
Considering that children want to read, it is not appropriate to use too interesting features to attract them, so parents can safely let their children use family letters.
But from another point of view, if the child himself does not like to play, it is useless for parents to rest assured.
"The efficiency of the automatic alarm is too poor, it is inconvenient to carry the mobile phone closely, and a smart wristband has to be added. However, the judgment of the smart bracelet is also a problem, the heartbeat is too fast, maybe the child is exercising, is it necessary to remove the bracelet before each exercise? Bai Fu said.
At this time, their design concept is no longer limited to the family letter itself, but integrates the design considerations of the family mobile phone.
The design concept of a home phone is good, but it is difficult to implement.
With current science and technology, simple body surface monitoring cannot accurately judge the user's state, and internal monitoring cannot be realized. It is said every day that science and technology are developing rapidly, but in fact, there are still many places where they are not good.
"Even if you don't think about health and safety monitoring, from a purely social point of view, I still think it should be designed to be fun. At most, we have designed the manual alarm to be eye-catching and will not affect the user's operation. Jiang Xuanyi said.
"The design is so fun, why should parents choose a family mobile phone, simply buy a regular smart phone. Bai Fu said.
