Chapter 288: A Fearless Samsung
"What do you mean another price increase?" Qin Hailang frowned.
"Well, that's Mr. Qin. Three months ago, the price of mobile phone chips and some mobile phone parts provided by Samsung, Hynix, Micron and other three companies increased once. Since the price increase was not large at that time, our company accepted it. But two months ago, it went up again. Especially since it went up once a month ago. Fortunately, the span of the price increase is not very large, so our procurement funds are acceptable. Mr. Qin, I knew that you were a busy person, so I didn't tell you about it. Because we have already pushed down this cost in other aspects, it has not caused a reduction in profits!" Qian Jian said with an embarrassed face.
In fact, Qian Jian understands that Qin Hailang is doing this way, if he has to report everything to him and ask him to deal with it, he will lack skills even if he is a doppelganger. After all, his company is not only Xingchen Mobile Phone Company!
Moreover, Qian Jian did not compress the profit point he wanted, but used other methods to control the cost price within an acceptable range, which was a good point.
But Qin Hailang's face was still unhappy after hearing this: "Did you cut corners like this, and did it affect our reputation?"
"No, no, absolutely not!" Qian Jian immediately patted his chest.
"Okay, let's talk about the situation this time. Qin Hailang lit a cigarette and said lightly.
"That's the case, Mr. Qin, for the past three months, the price has been raised once a month. Since the price increase is not high, we can all accept it. But this month, the Samsung company has raised the price twice in a row. The price was too high for us to accept at all. If the price of this mobile phone chip is followed, our profit will definitely be reduced by more than 10%. Since we have been importing Samsung's mobile phone chips before, I plan to go to Hynix and Micron to ask for goods, and we don't want Samsung's goods. But the two companies over there are also raising prices, as if they are colluding!"
"Not only us, but even five or six other domestic mobile phone companies in China have complained that the other party has raised prices! And it has risen four or five times in just a few months!" Qian Jian explained.
Our company and four or five other domestic mobile phone companies have been asking for goods from these three companies for a long time. Why do they dare to raise prices so blatantly and unscrupulously? Aren't they afraid that we collectively will not want goods? You must know that our companies have a large long-term order. Qin Hailang frowned.
"This is not clear, I think they are relying on the fact that we can't make such advanced mobile phone chips in China at present, and they are monopolizing the market, so they have nothing to fear!" Qian Jian said in a deep voice.
"Well, that makes sense, but I think there's another big factor, and I'm sure it's the most important factor. That is, our Xingchen mobile phone and Huawei mobile phone have been encroaching on the international market for a year, so that the market share of mobile phone companies such as Samsung has been decreasing, forcing them to be anxious, and they have come up with such a loss move. Qin Hailang analyzed.
Qin Hailang knows very well that before he developed the Xingchen mobile phone system, the main market of domestic mobile phone companies such as Huawei was the domestic market, and the foreign market did not grab the cake at all.
Moreover, Samsung and other companies also know that the Huaxia mobile phone market is huge, and it is impossible for them Samsung to occupy it all. Because of different consumption concepts, many Chinese people are willing to buy cheap domestic mobile phones.
Therefore, they sell mobile phone chips to domestic mobile phone companies, which is equivalent to indirectly earning a huge market for Huaxia mobile phones, and they also get enough profits.
Now because domestic mobile phones are entering the international market, and very successfully, their interests are damaged. Now they are no longer satisfied with the status quo they used to be. So go ahead and change the original policy!
"This is also very possible! But we have negotiated with these companies many times, but the other party is unwilling to reduce the price, and it looks like they don't want to buy it. Qian Jian said with a bitter face.
"Okay, I see. These companies are currently relying on their own company's technology, and they don't want us to have a good time!" Qin Hailang rubbed his temples.
He knows that things like mobile phone chips really need to be imported at present!
Because the quality of domestic mobile phone chips is very poor, or it cannot meet the requirements of mobile phone configuration.
Huaxia's annual imports of integrated circuits remain at $220 billion, surpassing oil. Among them, small chips account for 40 billion US dollars, Samsung, Hynix, Micron, these three have a market share of up to 95%, so far there are no chips with independent intellectual property rights in Huaxia.
I have to say that this is a very painful thing!
He also knows that this Samsung and Hynix are both companies on the stick country, while Micron is a mobile phone chip company in the United States.
In addition to these three companies are top-notch, if you import mobile phone chips from other overseas companies, there are indeed some deficiencies in performance.
You must know that the mobile phone chip of a mobile phone is definitely the core component.
If this core component is not good, then the performance of a mobile phone will definitely decline, and once it declines, it will cause word of mouth and other impacts.
So it's a very serious problem.
Otherwise, Qian Jian would not have made a special trip to complain to him.
"It seems that Samsung really has no fear. Qin Hailang's eyes gradually became cold. What he hates most is the threat of others, so he must let the other party bear his own anger!
"Tell the company's senior management, from now on, Samsung mobile phones will never want to be equipped with our Xingchen mobile phone system for the rest of your life!" Qin Hailang said to Qian Jian.
"Boss?" Qian Jian was a little speechless after hearing this, after all, Samsung mobile phones are also a huge market for Xingchen mobile phone systems. And at present, their company is talking about this with Samsung. If nothing else, it is estimated that Samsung mobile phones will soon be recognized by Xingchen mobile phone companies and let the other party carry the Xingchen mobile phone system.
In his view, although the shopping mall is like a battlefield, everything is about interests, and there are only permanent interests, and there are no permanent enemies!
"Huh?"
After seeing Qin Hailang's stunning gaze, Qian Jian didn't say what he just thought!
"Okay, Mr. Qin. Qian Jian nodded.
Soon, Qian Jian promulgated this order.
Those who are talking about this cooperation with Samsung are also very small.
Samsung was also stunned when they saw this situation, but they were all very confident, because the other party also had a handle in their hands, and they were not afraid that the other party would blow this cooperation!
