Chapter 248: Confidence!
"Well, Qin, you have successfully convinced us, I can't think of any reason to refuse to join this technology alliance in your mouth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info So in order to make our alliance more solid, let's put it bluntly, we need to pay for something else besides the 3D gesture operating system. Cook spread his hands and immediately made a decision.
In this era when technology is the primary productive force, there is no doubt who has mastered technology. Especially the guy in front of him, he never bravados, but just tell you his thoughts very sincerely and directly. So Tim. Cook is absolutely convinced that if he refuses to join this alliance here, this guy will be able to defeat him and go home in the afternoon to fight Samsung Electronics.
This is really annoying, but there is no way, Google has been deflated, just because of its own cleverness to play this broken contract, and as a result, it directly paid nearly three times the price in exchange for a contract similar to the previous one, Qin Yu's strong character can be imagined. Tim. The only thing Cook was baffled by where the young man had gotten so much technology that far exceeded the world average.
Whether it is Apple or Google or Microsoft or Samsung, their technology accumulation is the output of real money. However, Huayu Technology has just emerged, and it has directly improved the cutting-edge technology at this stage, which is obviously not scientific. Of course, Tim. It was absolutely impossible for Cook to ask at this time, and it was quite boring to talk about himself.
"Mr. Cook is refreshing." Hear Tim. Cook said this, and after Qin Yu praised it with appreciation, he spoke confidently, "Actually, we don't need much, and the support of a one-time R&D fund will only cost about five billion US dollars." In addition, there is also the support of technical personnel, mainly the mobile phone chip design, in order to ensure the smartphone equipped with a 3D virtual screen and the morning market, we need Apple to send a group of technical personnel to design the overall layout of the mobile phone chip according to the technical parameters we give; In addition, we need your company's team of interface designers.
To design the friendly 3D display operation interface of the Huayu technology system and user interaction, as well as future products, we will add electronic product protection mechanisms, which need to use Apple's patent. And, of course, the TinsciANXT1950I lithography machine that we mentioned earlier,"
"So what our Apple technicians do in the future is to be shared with the four manufacturers in the alliance," said Tim. Cook touched his chin and asked in a rather confused manner.
This is the manifestation of Apple's deep pockets, for the initial research and development of up to $5 billion Tim. Cook didn't have any doubts at all. For such a high-tech company, it is the norm to invest heavily in research and development of leading technologies. Of course, Apple does have money, and in order to reasonably avoid taxes, the cash reserves of more than $150 billion in overseas accounts are where Apple's confidence lies, and as long as their products can maintain a hot sales trend, Apple will not be short of money.
"That's fair. Mr. Cook. In the future, Apple will be able to save the core license fee paid to AR companies, and our 3D virtual screen technology and the next generation of the subsystem will be equipped with a new core CPU, which can be used without the payment of members in the alliance, and believe us, this new core design CPU will definitely be more powerful than the AR architecture, and there will be no compatibility problems. Of course, I don't need to explain much, after all, your company is responsible for the overall layout design of the chip, and you can also experience the capabilities of our new CPU and GPU architecture at that time. In fact, to put it bluntly, all manufacturers who join the alliance must contribute to the alliance. Finally, a new 3D display smartphone is designed, of course, the design of the appearance of the mobile phone is still completed by the respective manufacturers. Qin Yu explained.
"However, once the overall design of the chip is formed, there are not many options for the appearance of the mobile phone. This will make our products seriously homogeneous," Tim. Cook shook his head, looking a little helpless.
This is understandable, but after all, there can still be differences, for example, Apple can design the overall layout of three sets of chips. For everyone to choose. In addition, we can develop other small technologies that can attract the user base based on the 3D virtual screen technology we provide, and we will not force manufacturers in the alliance to share these things. And these overall layout solutions are just our first generation of products that need to be shared, which is due to the time constraints.
When our technology is more mature after the test of the market, everyone will have enough time to develop their own special products for the next generation of products, isn't it," Qin Yu patiently explained.
"Okay, it seems that we have no choice, right, but what if the future is not as good as Mr. Qin described, for example, if we use the CPU and GPU combination provided by the alliance, what if there is a problem that will affect the brand reputation after listing, or the technology of the alliance can no longer be provided to us at a specified time, is this considered a breach of contract by Huayu Technology, and more importantly, if Huayu Technology breaks the contract in the future, who do we talk to to reason?" Cook asked all his doubts in one go.
"It is naturally impossible to break the contract. For example, the contracts we signed with the other two manufacturers have quite strict liability clauses for breach of contract. The contract with Apple is no exception. As for President Cook's other concerns, I can understand that. Although Huayu Technology doesn't have to bear any responsibility for what you said, after all, no one can guarantee that a new technology will not have any problems after there are tens of millions of users. But in Apple's style, you naturally have to go through countless tests before a new product is launched, and I believe that as long as it is an iPhone, there will never be a big problem that will affect Apple's reputation, as you said. ”
"As for the timing you mentioned, wouldn't it be reassuring to look at this toy, if it weren't for the fact that we had to develop a new energy source or solve the problem of battery power draining too quickly in 3D display mode, we would have been able to put this technology directly on the new product right now. In this way, we can promise that in the absence of force majeure, at the latest, we can provide the new generation of alliance's independent property rights of the CPU and GPU technical parameters to Apple for your company to design new products, which can be written into the contract. Qin Yu replied with confidence. (To be continued.) )
