Chapter 314: No Reason (Part 2)
ps. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the Biquge www.biquge.info515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the pen Quge www.biquge.info coins, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
"No longer producing VIA's CDMA basebands without any problems. But we may develop our own baseband!" Wang said.
The current verbal agreement will fall on paper and be legally bound when the transaction is made, and the key points must be clearly stated.
"Haha, good, courageous! I'm optimistic about you, mortal technology is the next Huawei, wait another 10 years, Huaxia may have another good chip design company, it's really gratifying, haha!"
Albert Kingsley sneered unscrupulously, and almost said that you have to make your own basebands and chips, and you will have to wait 10 years before you can enter the stream!
After all, the chip design is very complicated, otherwise Huaxia would not have made much improvement in this area for many years.
Even giants like Huawei have taken nearly 10 years to barely reach the first-class level with the Kirin 950.
What's more, the mortal technology that is backward in terms of strength, talents, patents, and technical reserves?
In this regard, Wang Fan smiled and said very gracefully: "Thank you for your encouragement." ”
Hanging up the phone, Wang Fan casually took it out and listened to Yipin Chunsheng, and he was in a very happy mood.
After the pit is dug, there will always be a day when Gao Tong regrets not being at the beginning!
Don't say ten years, I'm afraid you can see it in half a month.
It's just that at that time, it's best not to say that Wang Fan cheated him!
Wang Fan smiled proudly, picked up the wine, and drank it all.
He likes to drink, but rarely drinks too much. Just as he likes women, he doesn't overdo it......
In the era of rampant materialism, keep the original intention. In order to always be clear, clear what you want most and what you need!
…………
Soon, the director of Qualcomm directly communicated with this resolution, and immediately sent someone to Mortal Technology to sign and hand over the contract resolutely!
As long as you control the CDMA baseband output of Mortal Technology. So whether it is Huawei, ZTE, Xiaomi, if you want to use other chips, and want to do full Netcom, you can only find Qualcomm to buy CDMA baseband.
But Qualcomm's CDMA baseband is dead expensive, and the chip has a price.
Therefore, they can only abandon the Continuous Tek chip and can only directly use the Qualcomm chip.
In this way, Qualcomm not only sells chips, but also gets 5% protection fees for each mobile phone!
It's a book of profits. Money!
Soon, Qualcomm took the initiative to spread the news, and the outside world was in an uproar.
Mortal Semiconductor actually gave up the production of CDMA basebands and transferred all the CDMA basebands in stock to Qualcomm.
Qualcomm, on the other hand, destroyed all the CDMA basebands in these inventories, and did not sell them at all!
Nowadays, if you want to make a full Netcom chip, you can only find Qualcomm.
on this. People from all walks of life have mixed reviews, but most of them blame mortal technology. It is believed that mortal science and technology are short-sighted, and for the sake of temporary profits, they are raising tigers.
This kind of behavior is even more for the tiger, forcing domestic and foreign mobile phone companies to bow to Qualcomm and pay protection fees to Qualcomm.
And the major mobile phone manufacturers and LianTek. The response was huge.
Although it is very cumbersome to use LinkTek's chips or HiSilicon's chips and integrate VIA's CDMA baseband, it is far less convenient than buying a complete set of Qualcomm directly.
But Qualcomm's asking price is too high, and there is a 5% overlord protection fee for the whole machine. On the contrary, the solution of Lianfa plus VIA baseband is much cheaper!
Therefore, whether it is Huawei or other manufacturers, many models have abandoned Qualcomm and adopted their own HiSilicon, or LianTek, and integrated CDMA baseband again.
Now, Mortal Technology has cleared its inventory and stopped production, which is simply the only other way to cut off, forcing all manufacturers to pay protection fees to Qualcomm.
Again, the most affected is Termon.
There is no doubt that mid-to-high-end all-Netcom mobile phones will rarely use LinkTek chips in the future, unless LinkTek technology is mature and launches a full-Netcom chip with integrated CDMA, but that will have to wait at least half a year!
As a result, Qualcomm's stock price stopped falling for the first time on the same day, and it rose by 1.5%.
On the contrary, LianFound's share price fell by 4%, and its market value shrank by 7.5 billion Chinese dollars!
Wang Fan was dumbfounded, he couldn't have imagined that such a decision would not only pit Qualcomm, but also MediaTek.
However, there is no way, from MediaTek to give up high-end for the sake of temporary profits, and sell the annual flagship chip X10 to Redmi, it is destined that MediaTek's high-end dream will always be just a dream, or a daydream!
can't be high-end, MediaTek's market value is shrinking, which is also an inevitable imagination.
And Wang Fan's behavior just accelerated the decline of MediaTek!
As a result, MediaTek immediately announced that the chip of the whole Netcom integrated with CDMA is progressing smoothly and will be available in the first quarter of next year at the latest!
Such a statement cannot restore the confidence of the outside world in MediaTek, nor can it stop the decline in MediaTek's stock price.
As a result, MediaTek once again broke out that the next-generation flagship chip X20 will be the first to adopt a three-cluster, ten-core chip design!
It integrates two 2.5GHz Cortex-A72, four 2.0GHz Cortex-A53, four 1.4GHz Cortex-A53 cores, and integrates Arm's most advanced GPU, Mali-T880!
Although it is not clear whether the X20 will use the latest 14/16nm process or the previous generation of 20nm process.
It is not clear whether it is Mali-T880MP4, quad-core. Or mali-t880mp88 cores.
However, the title of 10 cores alone is enough to bluff people.
After all, most people don't know much about this aspect, and take it for granted that 8 cores are better than 4 cores, and 10 cores are better than 8 cores......
As a result, such a statement has indeed restored the confidence of some investors, and it must have stopped the decline.
However, on the other hand, LianTek has integrated the high-end chips of CDMA, mentioned the strategic position, and went all out to promote it!
On the contrary, Huawei is much more fortunate, just bought 20 million VIA CDMA baseband, and the other party cleared and stopped production.
These 20 million CDMA basebands, plus those in stock, are enough to hold out for a while.
Therefore, as long as the Kirin 950 with integrated CDMA baseband is completed by the end of the year, Huawei will not be affected by anything and completely get rid of its dependence on CDMA baseband.
And those companies that have not purchased CDMA baseband can only do it in a hurry, or go to Qualcomm.
But more are waiting to see what mortal technology really wants.
After all, although the technology of the CDMA baseband in VIA's inventory is not good, the current market share and profit are still very good.
From this point of view alone, there is no reason for mortal technology to give up directly!
[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, and it must be better!] (To be continued.) )
