Chapter 386: Lao Tzu Wants to Snatch Your Cake (Fifth Update)
Samsung headquarters.
A group of high-level officials are in a meeting.
Today, President Li Jianxi is very unhappy, and all the senior executives below can see it.
"Today, Huaxia's Xingchen Group can fully provide their local market demand in the area of integrated circuits and chips. We are on the verge of losing that $240 billion market pie. What do you think?" asked Li Jianxi in a deep voice. He never expected that Xingchen Group's integrated circuit production line could increase so much at once. At the same time, he was also shocked that the other party had even developed a chip in the 5G era. This is very detrimental for them.
"Mr. President, why don't we lower the prices of integrated circuits and chips? I believe that after the prices are cheaper, those companies in Huaxia may consider continuing to order our products?" a senior executive suggested.
"President, it seems that this is the only way we can do it at the moment. In terms of technology, we are already lagging behind the other party, and we can only rely on reducing the price if we want to keep the order. Another senior executive also nodded in agreement.
"We're also lowering the price to the price of the Xingchen Group, so that our profit will be reduced by more than half. Li Jianxi said in a deep voice. This is the last thing he wants!
"There is no way to do it, the other party's products are better than ours. Even if we lower the price to the same price as the other party, I think those companies in Huaxia will still choose Xingchen Group. We have to go down to a lower level than the products of the Star Group. ”
"If this is the case, our profits will drop by more than 80%!"
"Alas~ We can't give up the market in Huaxia, this piece of cake is too big. Looks like we're going to have to give it a try. Li Jianxi sighed and leaned back in his chair a little weakly.

Intel Headquarters.
"Mr. President, we feel that we can no longer continue to insist on our 14nm technology process. If we keep going, we'll be in even worse shape. It will be surpassed by more companies!" Andy, the marketing manager, said solemnly.
Intel has monopolized this field for 25 years, but it was kicked out of the throne by Samsung last year! The most important reason is that Intel has been insisting on 14nm technology over the years.
14nm is still the mainstream in the world, but when compared with companies such as Samsung, it is a backward technology.
At present, Samsung is mainly 7nm and 10nm. Even 5nm technology has been developed.
And they are still stuck in 14nm technology.
The reason why they have always insisted on this technology is because 14nm technology is very mature in their hands. The products produced can achieve maximum profitability.
If they switch to 7nm or 10nm technology, their margins will be much smaller.
This is also the reason why they have been insisting on 14nm in the past few years, the reason is to make more profits.
It is because of this that Intel has been overtaken by Samsung in the past two years!
People would rather earn less than surpass you!
"Yes, Mr. President. Last year, we were surpassed by Samsung, and this year Samsung was severely arrested and beaten by Xingchen Group. Renjia Xingchen Group has developed 3nm technology. At the same time, it has also developed chip products in the 5G era. Moreover, in the integrated circuit, 240 billion US dollars of 3-nanometer integrated circuit components can be mass-produced. If we insist on 14 nanometers, we will be eliminated by history!" another senior executive agreed.
Indeed, at the moment the issue is serious!
This is the case in the era of science and technology, which does not advance or retreat.
Fittest!
"Well, you're all right! I raised this with the board yesterday. They agreed with me! In the future, we will abandon the 14nm technology and go all out to research and development. Strive to develop more advanced products. President Paul O's said lightly.
"Really? That's great!"
"The guys on the board have finally gotten their heads up. ”
"Are these vampires finally realizing the importance of technology? Profit is not the only thing, product innovation is the king of production. ”
"R&D manager, how is our 5nm technology process going?" asked Paul O.
"Report Mr. President, significant progress has been made. I believe that we can catch up with Samsung's 5nm technology within half a year!"
"No, no, no, 5nm is not enough! What I need is 3nm, we should aim for the Star Group at the moment!" Paul Ou shook his head and said firmly.
"Yes, Mr. President. ”

At the same time, Qin Hailang was also preparing. His 400 new integrated circuit production lines are now being installed intensively. Trial production can be carried out after half a month, and full-scale production can be carried out after one month!
At that time, it will definitely be the beginning of making money!
"Red Queen, help me check what Samsung, Hynix, and Micron are currently providing chips to those foreign companies?" Qin Hailang sneered.
"Good boss. ”
"It has been found out that Samsung currently provides chips to more than 50 companies in Europe and the United States, including computer companies, mobile phone companies, radio communication companies, system companies, etc., etc.......
"Hynix currently supplies ...... to Europe and the United States"
Soon, the red queen helped Qin Hailang find out how many companies these three companies are currently supplying to, that is, all of Samsung's customers are exposed to Qin Hailang's eyes. There is a red queen, what can't be found?
Qin Hailang is useful to check these, there is nothing wrong. Since these three companies have monopolized 95% of the chip market in the Huaxia market over the years. Now it's time for him to fight back.
That's right, he not only wants to swallow the chip market in the local market, but also grab the overseas market of Samsung, Hynix, and Micron!
If you have an advantage, why not?
He wants these three companies to try what it's like to be bullied, and even if they are bullied, they can't fight back, haha!
With this thick pile of customer information, Qin Hailang came to the headquarters of Xingchen Group.
"Sisi, immediately call all the senior executives of the marketing department!" Qin Hailang said with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, Mr. Qin!"
It didn't take long for more than 20 senior executives of the marketing department to appear in the conference room.
Qin Hailang didn't speak, and directly threw this thick pile of information on the table, and then said: "Look at these materials, all of them are chip customers of Samsung, Hynix, and Micron. ”
The high-level faces look at each other.
"I'm going to grab all the chip customers of the three companies! So, the day of your collective business trip has come. Qin Hailang smiled faintly.
