Chapter 335: Anxiety
The chip is down, which is enough to illustrate a problem.
The Kirin 710F chip cannot support the operation of the "King of Fury" game.
After a year of development in the mobile Internet market, there have been a number of games similar to "King of Fury" that have very high requirements for mobile phone CPU and GPU, and such games are very popular with young people.
In this case, young gamers will definitely not like tassels.
What worries Yu Jiangdong the most is that "King of Fury" has begun to hold international competitions, which are very popular with viewers on station B and some game live broadcast platforms, and it is very easy for the number of viewers to exceed one million or even tens of millions.
Yu Jiangdong got up from his seat and wandered back and forth in the room, thinking about countermeasures.
The sudden rise of "King of Fury" represents not a single game, but the demand for high-performance mobile phones in the new era.
Tassel1 mobile phone can indeed meet the needs of most users for work and life, but it cannot meet the needs of the younger generation of consumer groups for games.
The news collected by Yu Jiangdong is that in the second half of the year, including Xia Guo's mobile phone manufacturers, Pingguo, Shanxing and other companies will launch high-performance mobile phones.
Yu Jiangdong will face greater pressure.
Bad news one after another.
The head of the production department called Yu Jiangdong directly.
"Mr. Yu! There's something going on here! ”
The Minister of Production said: "The memory of the Mountain Star purchased here is not usable, it does not seem to support the singularity system, and the stored memory does not seem to support the singularity system, which is the case after several tests." ”
Because the chip capability of the tassel 1 mobile phone is relatively backward, the requirements for other hardware are very high.
In particular, memory and storage, these two are related to the speed of the mobile phone, because the Warwick Tassel 1 has been using components from Samsung and other major manufacturers.
Yu Jiangdong immediately realized some problems, and he said: "You can replace memory and storage with second-tier brands." ”
The experimental results of the production department came out quickly, and the second-tier brands were fine, but the read and write speed dropped significantly.
The thing is already clear, after the chips, the companies in the United States and South Korea have taken action against the Origin Group and Warwick.
Yu Jiangdong gasped, if he lost the chip and memory, the tassel mobile phone in the second half of the year would be very difficult.
Worse news is yet to come.
The assistant got some information about the press conferences of major mobile phone companies in the second half of the year and handed it to Yu Jiangdong.
"In the second half of the year, Samsung, Xiaomi, Blue Factory, and Green Factory's new machines will use the latest chips of Gaotube, and there is news that the chip will not support Singularity OS."
What does that mean?
It means that in the second half of the year, other mobile phone brands in the world will fight back against Warwick, and Warwick has no products that can be used.
In the current market, in addition to Warwick, other mobile phone manufacturers still adopt a dual-track system system.
You can use both Android and Singularity at the same time.
Under the temptation of Gao's latest chip, it is normal for everyone to give up the singularity, and there is news that "King of Fury" will run on Android, but it is to be expected that the game will become a national game.
Yu Jiangdong had no choice, so he called again to ask Xia Xin International if the 7nm technology could be mass-produced.
Xia Xin International said very distressedly: "Mr. Yu, this time is too tight, we are looking for a way to bypass the ASML lithography machine, but it still takes time." ”
"How long is it expected to take?" Yu Jiangdong knew that the answer was not very good, but he still couldn't help but ask, hoping that a miracle would happen.
Xia Xinguo replied: "Mr. Yu, I really can't guarantee you this time!" ”
Yu Jiangdong couldn't help but roar: "Huawei has invested tens of billions of dollars before and after, but there is no progress at all!?" ”
Xia Xin International is actually very anxious and said very embarrassed: "At present, Xia Guo's technology from lithography machine to chip assembly is completely backward, and talents are also seriously disconnected, which is really not a problem that can be solved by throwing money." ”
At this time, Yu Jiangdong suddenly thought that Zhou Xiao had said to himself that Xia Guo's chip industry is a systematic national project, not something that a company can afford, and he also advised Huawei to be cautious when investing money.
To support a complete industrial chain of chip development - design, manufacturing, testing, and packaging is a completed process, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
Tens of billions of dollars invested in this industry are almost not bubbled, and it takes thousands or even trillions of RMB to complete this industry.
Yu Jiangdong hung up the phone in disappointment, and the last hope was to be in the Origin Group to see if the Origin Group could bring some technological innovations and changes.
Yu Jiangdong thought about it again and again, if he made a call to Zhou Xiao.
On the phone, Yu Jiangdong euphemistically expressed the situation that major mobile phone manufacturers are about to release super-performance mobile phones in the second half of the year, and he is worried about the popularity of "King of Fury".
Yu Jiangdong said on the phone: "According to the sample of our user use and experience report, we analyzed that 60% of the users of tassel mobile phones are business people, but the remaining 40% are young people such as students, and this part of the group highly overlaps with the terminal game user group." ”
Yu Jiangdong said with great concern: "This part of the user has very high performance requirements for mobile phones, and we are likely to lose their market." ”
The current sales growth rate of tassels in the Xia market has brought a bottleneck, which means that users who are willing to buy tassel mobile phones have basically bought them, and the rest of them are waiting to be developed by Warwick.
According to the two-to-three-year use elimination period of a mobile phone, most of those users who have not bought a tassel mobile phone have just changed their mobile phones, and are ready to buy them after two years of eliminating the mobile phone, some are continuing to wait and see, and some are disgusted with the performance of tassel mobile phones that are too weak and are not intended to be bought.
Users in the first two cases can be fought for, but if the Tassel 1 mobile phone has not been new, then it will be difficult to win over the users of the first two situations.
"I know." Zhou Xiao's office in Jiangcheng followed Yu Jiangdong's phone call.
Of course, Zhou Xiao knows the current predicament of Huawei Xingrui, so Zhou Xiao will set up a DNA storage technology.
This offline is to break the absolute monopoly of the West on microelectronic technology.
"They develop the conference, we also develop the conference, and after Pingguo finishes the conference, we will develop the conference within a week and release the new machine." Zhou Xiao's tone was very relaxed, and it seemed that the press conference would be held as soon as he wanted.
"But we don't have a new phone at the moment." Yu Jiangdong also said honestly: "Xiaxin International is currently unable to mass-produce 7nm chips. ”
Zhou Xiao said with a smile: "It's not easy to release a new phone, just change the shell and it's over." ”
"Ah??h This Yu Jiangdong was completely stunned.
