"Boss, Wei Dong Wang wants to ask you to play, look ......" Pony asked Lin Zheng seriously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Wang Xuehong wants to invite me to play?" Chen Geng laughed twice: "Tell her, I'm sorry, I've been a little busy lately, let's do it another day." ”

Xiao Ma was not surprised by Chen Geng's reply, and nodded: "Okay." ”

A few years ago, even two years ago, VIA Electronics was one of the heavyweights in the PC field, and their chipsets were still able to occupy a considerable share of the market, but in just two years, VIA's chipset market share has dropped sharply, and now it has fallen to less than 15%, from nearly 50% of the market share at the peak to less than 15% now, which is really embarrassing.

A few years ago, Chen Geng still had to treat Wang Xuehong with a slightly stammering attitude in equality, but in just two years, the situation has completely dropped, and Wang Xuehong has come to beg Chen Geng, which is really a white cloud and a dog.

"Wait a minute," Tan Na stopped the pony who was about to go out and said to Lin Zheng, "I think it's good for you to go." ”

"Huh?" Chen Geng was a little surprised: "Why? ”

"Wouldn't it be nice to go out and relax?" Tan Na said with a smile and had a sloppy fight with Lin Zheng.

"I think it's good to have you with me all this time." Love words came out of Lin Zheng's mouth as soon as he opened his mouth.

Her face was slightly red, although she was slightly embarrassed, but Tan Na's heart was more happy: "It's simple, you've been staying at home all this time, it's time to go out for a walk......

Without waiting for Tan Na to finish speaking, Lin Zheng glared: "Talking about people." ”

"The price of the chipset is too expensive, and they seem to have reached a price alliance, which is not a good thing for us."

Lin Zheng frowned.

Tan Na is right, since the proportion of chipsets produced by VIA Electronics in the market has been getting lower and lower, the price of chipsets has also been declining, and the price of chipsets has been rising...... Of course, in the eyes of ordinary consumers, the price of computers has been going all the way down. However, in the eyes of manufacturers, especially world-class super-large foundries such as Lianchuang Technology, the price of CPUs and chipsets has been rising...... Clearly, the four companies have agreed on something.

For consumers, the price of computers is always as low as possible, and with large-scale industrial production. The price of computers and computer spare parts is indeed going all the way down, but this is at the expense of the manufacturer's profits, 3 years ago, with refined management, Lianchuang Technology's profit in computer foundry is about 3.6%. But this year's foundry profit has been reduced to 3.2%, which is a very dangerous signal, and with the continuous decline of foundry prices, no one dares to guarantee how far the future foundry prices will fall, but Lin Zheng knows that the future of computers and mobile phones and other electronic products OEM prices have even fallen to the edge of losses.

At this time, it is indeed the time to meet with Wang Xuehong and his wife.

"It's okay, just play one game," Thinking about this, Chen Geng nodded slowly: "Let's go together?" ”

"Okay." Tanna replied happily.

…………………………………………

Lin Zheng agreed to his invitation so happily, and Wang Xuehong was overjoyed.

Since the last time everyone had a grudge. In the past, she sent invitations to Lin Zheng many times, but the results of each invitation were not ideal, for this invitation, Wang Xuehong actually didn't have much hope, just had the attitude of trying it, after all, she offended the other party ruthlessly, but she didn't expect Chen Geng to agree.

At this point between the two, everyone understands that any subtle action is not meaningless, and Lin Zheng's action is obviously an expression of some kind of goodwill and a signal to improve the relationship. For Wang Xuehong and VIA, which is in an extremely bad situation, this signal is tantamount to the sound of Tianlun.

Chen Geng definitely didn't expect that because of this signal he sent, Wang Xuehong and his wife immediately held a group executive meeting. The core of the meeting was clear, that is, to figure out what Lin Zheng meant behind this action, and what benefits VIA could win for itself.

"It's for our HTC phone?" Weng Tongsheng, the executive vice president and Wang Xuehong's cousin, frowned and said his guess: "Lianchuang Technology's market share in the field of smartphone operating systems is getting bigger and bigger, and our HTC is the top three in the smartphone market, I think Lin Zheng hopes to take this opportunity to persuade us to abandon Microsoft's E2003 and use their system instead." ”

Reasonable! Wang Xuehong nodded slightly. She also thinks so in her heart, as Lianchuang Technology continues to increase its publicity and investment, Microsoft's E2003 and Nokia's S60 two smartphone operating systems in terms of market share and Lianchuang Technology The gap is getting bigger and bigger, and has dominated more than half of the smart phone market, and Microsoft and their E2003 can still survive in the market, relying on the help and support of HTC (HTC Electronics) sparing no effort, if you can be comfortable Wang Xuehong chose to give up E2003, Not only can it skyrocket its market share to more than 65%, but it can also hit Microsoft hard, which is indeed a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

"I don't think so!" Marketing Director Jiang Ming'an retorted.

"Oh? What does Ming An think? Wang Xuehong turned a pair of wonderful eyes and asked.

"I think the purpose of Lin Zheng and Lianchuang Technology is VIA."

"Tell me about your analysis."

"It's very simple, chipset," compared with Weng Tongsheng's analysis, Jiang Mingan put forward another view: "We all know that although in terms of price, the price of chipset is going all the way down, but this is just the appearance, in-depth analysis knows that the price trend of chipset is actually much lower than that of products such as CPU and graphics card, which is actually equivalent to the price of chipset rising in disguise." ”

Wang Xuehong nodded, agreeing with Jiang Ming'an's opinion, and at the same time motioned for him to continue.

I believe that Lianchuang Technology will know, even if you don't know, you can guess, and Lianchuang Technology is the largest PC foundry in the world, they are the most sensitive to price, and the price of chipsets will make them very uncomfortable, compared to the smooth development of the sea, the initiative is in their own hands, Lianchuang Technology has little initiative in chipset, and they urgently need to make a breakthrough in this area.

And now we urgently need a strong partner to save the market, so I think that compared to HTC's mobile phone business, Lianchuang Technology wants to talk to us about VIA Electronics, chipsets and CPUs this time. Jiang Ming'an said categorically.

Jiang Ming'an's analysis was meticulous and reasonable, and everyone couldn't help but nod their heads again and again, and even Weng Tongsheng nodded again and again, agreeing with his statement.

"So we can take this opportunity to sell for a good price?" Ren Weiguang, Director of VIA Electronics Technology Division, has a twinkle in his eyes.

"No way!" Weng Tongsheng and Jiang Mingan shouted at the same time: "You must not do this!" ”

"Why," Ren Weiguang said strangely: "Now Lianchuang Technology has a request for us, this is a rare opportunity for us, miss this opportunity, maybe we will never meet such a good opportunity...... As long as we continue to ensure the price advantage of the right and A, I believe that Lianchuang Technology will choose us. ”

Jiang Mingan smiled bitterly and said: "That's right, but I don't know if Mr. Wei Guang understands Mr. Lin Zheng's personality and character?" ”

"This ...... Is it important? After a moment's hesitation, Ren Weiguang asked.

"Very important," Jiang Mingan nodded with a wry smile: "Lin Zheng is a very strong person, he is like a dictatorial tyrant, he can't tolerate the slightest opposition from others, if the price of the chipset we sell them is not up and down compared to before, he will never accept it, even if he buys a product with a higher price." ”

"Not only that," Weng Tongsheng said, "This cooperation with Lianchuang Technology is a rare opportunity for us in VIA Electronics and even in the mobile phone business, if we offend him because of this, VIA Electronics and HTC Electronics will suffer a big loss." ”

When he said this, Weng Tongsheng's mouth was full of bitterness.

VIA Electronics and HTC Electronics are the pride of the island's semiconductor industry and consumer electronics industry, VIA Electronics is one of the world's three major general-purpose CPU manufacturers, chipsets once occupied 50% of the global market share, HTC mobile phones are the pride of the island's people, but who would have thought that now VIA Electronics and HTC Electronics have to bow their proud heads to the mainland boys they have always looked down on...... At this moment, he really felt the sorrow of the widows of a small country.

Although the island has always been a part of China, Weng Tongsheng clearly does not see it that way. (To be continued.) )
