Any high-tech enterprise has a strict confidentiality system, and it would be too child's fun to casually disclose the projects under research and development.

Although Huawei is Luo Jia's largest customer at present, it is better not to set this precedent.

However, Luo Jia thought about it again, Gong Xiangdong was eager to visit, and tried his best to help him find a new office address, all of which revealed Huawei's current anxiety, so it was better to listen to what they had to say first.

So, Luo Jia smiled, "Dean Gong, are you doing in the 2012 lab lately?" ”

Ay~

Gong Xiangdong sighed deeply, "How can it be good, this mobile phone war has been fought so far, and the tragedy has far exceeded everyone's expectations." ”

"Let me tell you this, Apple had $300 billion in cash reserves three months ago, and now it has only $270 billion left."

Luo Jia was stunned, "The news is reliable? ”

Gong Xiangdong nodded, "We have accurate sources within Apple. ”

Luo Jia didn't say anything, and it was a tacit practice for giant companies to mix sand with each other and dispatch commercial spies.

However, this news still surprised Luo Jia, in three months, Apple consumed as much as $30 billion in cash flow, and it is definitely impossible to use all this money for marketing.

There is only one truth, they are secretly preparing a nuclear bomb and accelerating its research and development at all costs.

Next, Gong Xiangdong's words also confirmed Luo Jia's guess.

"According to our intelligence, Apple and Samsung are preparing a big project, and in the past month, the number of charter flights from Seoul to Los Angeles has increased 30 times, and the two of them are constantly visiting each other and sending a large number of engineers to each other's companies."

"Not only us, all domestic counterparts are now very anxious, although thanks to your Xingchen Technology, in terms of market share, we have temporarily taken the lead, but we cannot ignore that Samsung and Apple are the world's largest market capitalization giant companies, they have resources and contacts, not we can compare."

"This is an asymmetrical war, behind Samsung, standing is the whole of South Korea, and Apple, which is related to the glory of the high-tech king of Silicon Valley, Google, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon, these giants are all openly and secretly assisting Apple."

Sha Zhan interjected and said, "You should know the recent news that Jinhua in southern Fujian has been completely blocked by the United States, right?" ”

Luo Jia nodded, feeling a little heavy.

Jinhua in southern Fujian, Tsinghua Unisplendour, Yangtze River Storage, and Anhui Gaoguanxin, these are the four important chess pieces laid by China in the field of memory.

Memory refers to memory chips and flash memory chips, which are very high-tech, how high is it?

So far, the four major factories in China's storage industry have invested hundreds of billions of dollars, and thousands of engineers and R&D personnel have been recruited from South Korea, Wanwan, Neon, and the United States, but so far, they have not come up with any convincing products.

DDR3 memory with purple cursor can occasionally be seen on the market, as well as a small number of flash memory chips, which is the result of years of efforts by the four major manufacturers in China's storage industry.

It's really sad to say, countless money has been burned, but like a bottomless pit, I still don't know when I will be able to raise my eyebrows.

The layman will never know what life is like for those engineers who are engaged in storage.

There is no technical information, semiconductor raw materials are monopolized by neon, semiconductor design tools are monopolized by the United States, and the equipment for manufacturing semiconductors is monopolized by neon, Europe, and the United States, completely from scratch.

Recently, there was finally good news, China's four major storage factories may launch mass production products in the next two years, and people in the circle have embraced each other to celebrate, feeling that the hard days have finally come to an end.

However, at this time, Jinhua in southern Fujian was blocked, and I don't know what kind of mood Jinhua's engineers are in now.

Luo Jia scratched his head, "The road to breaking the blockade and hegemony is like climbing a mountain, it is relatively easy to climb from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, the most difficult is to reach the top, once you climb to the mountainside, what a strong wind, a blizzard, these moths will all come out." ”

"The United States blocked Jinhua, but it shows that Jinhua has done a good job, which makes the opponent feel afraid."

Gong Xiangdong agreed with Luo Jia's judgment, "I heard from people in the industry that the four major storage factories are staying up late and working overtime every day, and many engineers are so tired that they are hospitalized. ”

After a pause, Gong Xiangdong said, "According to the grapevine from Samsung, they may hold a joint press conference with Apple in July." ”

"What time?"

"July 16th."

Scold~

Listening to Gong Xiangdong's words, Luo Jia jumped up directly from the chair!

I set the start time of the May storm on May 16, and then on June 16, I launched an epoch-making super camera.

Now, Samsung and Apple are going to hold a press conference on July 16?

Fools also understand that this is a provocation, and they want to take revenge!

"Do you know what they're going to launch?" Luo Jia asked.

"This time they did a good job of secrecy, we don't know their actions yet, but according to speculation, it should be related to the screen and storage, the two core components, but it is not ruled out that they will fight with us again in other fields." Gong Xiangdong said.

Luo Jia frowned and paced back and forth in the office.

After all, it's Samsung and Apple, Apple has almost the strongest design capabilities in the world, and Samsung has successfully surpassed Intel and topped the world's first giant in high-tech manufacturing.

The situation that was finally opened up is going to be pulled back by the opponent again?

Luo Jia is not reconciled, at this time, no matter what, he has to help the Big Four to withstand the joint attack of Samsung and Apple.

At this time, Gong Xiangdong's other words made Luo Jia finally make up her mind.

"Yesterday, Opal quietly announced that all employees would cut their salaries by 20 percent."

Luo Jia stopped and asked puzzledly, "Salary cut?" The war has just reached the middle game, and the salary cut at this time is very demoralizing. ”

Gong Xiangdong shrugged, "There is no way to do it if it doesn't fall, this mobile phone war is too expensive, every morning when I wake up, it is hundreds of millions of dollars to spend outside, our financial director in just three months, half of the gray hair, just because of how many nights I can't sleep." ”

"Samsung and Apple have hundreds of billions of dollars in reserves, and there is also the support of the nine major Korean banks and Wall Street behind them, and we are fighting with them with the little money we have saved over the years."

"If Samsung loses, there will be huge Samsung Electronics, Samsung Real Estate, Samsung Insurance, Samsung Automobile, Samsung Heavy Industries, Samsung Chemical, Samsung Hotel, Samsung Treasure Amusement Park."

"Samsung Tyco is even engaged in the military industry, and even makes fucking helicopter gunships and self-propelled guns."

Gong Xiangdong paused, "And if we lose, we really don't even have underwear, and the salary cut is nothing, once we lose this mobile phone war, millions of employees will lose their jobs, affecting countless ordinary families." ”

Luo Jia nodded, this is indeed a war that cannot be lost, a battle to break the hegemony of foreign manufacturers' mobile phones.

"You come with me." Luo Jia said suddenly, and an imperceptible glint crossed his eyes.

"Where are you going?"

"Lab, show you a little thing I'm working on." Luo Jia said.
