Chapter 46: The Former Overlord
As Yan Feng said, Qualcomm's hegemony has become precarious, and it may be replaced by someone else in the next moment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qualcomm Corporate Headquarters, USA.
President Jerome Powell is looking at the quarter's revenue, which unfortunately fell 10 percent year-over-year.
Qualcomm stock price has been falling wildly for several days. Every day is a drop limit without exception, and in just a few days, Qualcomm's market capitalization has fallen by nearly 15 billion.
This is really going to kill the rhythm of Qualcomm! The market value of 100 billion is now less than 70 billion, and it is declining at a high speed every day.
A bell rang, Powell glanced at the number on the phone, did not answer, and directly pressed the hang-up button. After a while, the bell rang again, and Powell hesitated, but finally connected.
"My old friend, are you alright?" There was a burst of smug laughter on the phone, and President Powell could almost imagine the other party's expression now. The already unkind expression is more like a layer of ice.
"Jakes, thank you for your concern, I'm fine!" Powell said through gritted teeth. It's not a concern, it's ironic......
"Powell, then I'm relieved. Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you one thing, we recently got the authorization of the baseband of the latest architecture from Shanhaijing in China. And the price is very reasonable, more than double that of ADM. Listening to the other party's smug laughter, Powell's face was even more ugly than pork liver.
Powell said coldly: "If you finish speaking, then I'll hang up." ”
"Don't, hey, I'm here to inform you of one thing, our Intel company is about to start further research and development of mobile chips, and the product will be ready to go online." The other party really didn't save face for Powell at all, and directly poked him in the sore spot.
This person named Jakes is now the president of Intel Corporation, and he and the president of Qualcomm have always been at odds, and the two are always at odds with each other.
Intel is also making mobile chips, but the market share is negligible. But with the latest baseband licensing, it's really hard to do, and the technology owned by such a giant company is not to be underestimated.
"Toot toot toot toot .
Powell hung up the phone without saying a word and closed his eyes in pain. He rubbed his temples and tried to relax himself.
It's really a wave of unsettled, and the scandal has not subsided, and it has ignited the war in the field of mobile chips. At present, it is destined to be an eventful year for Qualcomm, and Qualcomm may be destroyed by this, or it may rise completely. But how could Yanfeng make Qualcomm rise again?
Yan Feng is planning to acquire Qualcomm, and directly bring Qualcomm's patent pool to achieve it once and for all. In fact, Yan Feng did not give ADMA technology to Huawei, just kidding, this is the accumulation of patents for his rise in the future. How could such an important patent be given away?
Powell thought for a while and immediately informed the secretary: "Immediately call the staff above the manager level to the conference room for a meeting!" ”
"What if it's not at headquarters?" The secretary asked cautiously.
"Call them all, go!" Powell is now on the verge of madness and could explode at any moment. If the company's performance is not good, the first to bear the brunt must be the company's president, who may even lose his job because of it.
As soon as the employees arrived at the venue, they noticed the anomaly. Roundtable, Powell held a roundtable!
This means that everyone in the meeting is equal and everyone has a voice, which can be a surprise to employees. But when I saw the paralyzed face of my president, I knew that the complexity of this matter was far more complicated than I imagined.
"As you can see, we at Qualcomm have been completely plunged into darkness, and the situation is tricky now, far more than you can imagine." Powell smiled bitterly, "The president of Intel informed me of something just now. He continued to smile wryly, "Intel has officially laid out the field of mobile chips, and not long ago it was authorized by the latest ADMA. Let's share your opinions based on the current situation. With that, Powell closed his eyes.
"President, could it be that Jakes lied to you?" An employee said.
"No, he won't be so boring, and if he dares to tell me, it means that Intel is fully prepared."
……
The headlines on the front pages of major websites must be the boiling Shanhai Batian chip that has been noisy by netizens, because this is a cross-era product, and a world-class chip can be manufactured with a 26-nanometer lithography machine. And the most important thing is that some chips are from the hands of China, so that the Chinese people once again understand what national pride is!
"Yao I China, the strongest chip in China! The world's strongest chip! ”…… Thousands of people expressed their respect and joy on the Shanhaijing Forum and Huawei's Pollen Forum! The space and circle of friends have been swiped by the parameters of the Shanhai Batian chip.
Half a month later, Huawei released its own mobile phone, Huawei Glory8, which is equipped with Shanhai Batian CPU. The price of 1500 allows users to experience the feeling of flying.
As soon as the mobile phone was released, it was rave reviews, whether it was performance, heating, and battery life, it was no longer a problem, and it completely conquered users.
In order to seize the market as soon as possible, Huawei has invested heavily this time, and it is not enough to call all its own production lines, and it has also entrusted the foundry of Shanhaijing Electronics to produce to meet market demand. As it turns out, Huawei's approach couldn't be more right.
After a period of hunger marketing, I let go of the purchase, and enough is enough!
Even if other mobile phone manufacturers have good revenue, they are only overshadowed in front of Huawei.
Yan Feng was slowly drinking water in his office, staring at the computer screen.
There are three people on the screen, Ren Zhengfei and Yan Feng, and the other is naturally Jakes, the president of Intel. That's right, they're video conferencing!
"Two, Qualcomm's shares are no longer falling, this time they are really bleeding, I think, the next should be to wish us a happy cooperation!" Iwamine said.
"That's right, let's carve up the Qualcomm market next!" Jax said with a grin, no one would have thought that this harmless guy would be so black-bellied.
"Okay, let me, the old man, play with you."
"Okay, I want Qualcomm!" Yan Feng said firmly.
Ren Zhengfei and Jax said solemnly at the same time: "We will help you!" ”
