At present, the research and development of rice mobile phones is still in full swing.

Although the company's R&D department is still a little stretched, it is at least proceeding step by step according to Mr. Lei's own ideas.

In addition, the various upstream channels for manufacturing mobile phones have basically been opened, and now Mr. Lei is already looking forward to the time when rice mobile phones will be launched for the first time.

Seeing that the rice began to move on the right track step by step, Mr. Lei's eyes naturally began to look forward.

Judging from the current situation, mobile phones have become more terminal services.

Aside from making phone calls, it's more like a set of personal-based service devices.

Now is no longer the time to compare who has a better camera and who has good sound quality. Now it is a matter of who has a higher degree of intelligence and who has more supporting manufacturers.

Mr. Lei's biggest regret is that when he was in rice, he could not vigorously develop Xiaomi's own system because it was a foreign holding.

If he is the same as Mr. Ren, maybe the big kill is the system of the Xiaomi family now.

But the reality is that there are no ifs, and it is impossible to take advantage of all good things.

Besides, he has left rice now, no matter how hard he worked before, it has nothing to do with him now.

And Mr. Lei now has no idea of developing a system.

It's not that there is no money, but the main thing is that it drags on too much.

The development of a system is never something that can be completed in a moment.

This is also the reason why Mr. Lei decided to access Hongmeng.

He is well aware of his position, both before and now, whether it is rice or rice.

I am just a traditional model assembly manufacturer.

What you want is to combine the strengths of hundreds of schools with your own body and deploy products that are enough to compete with any peers.

It is precisely because of this that he and Mr. Ren have not been on the same road from the beginning.

It's a pity, but it's your choice.

It's just that although he has given up the system, Lei always wants to participate in the smart home.

Especially the intelligent robot, although I don't know if the flower factory has reached an agreement with the door of science and technology.

But that doesn't stop me from talking to TechGate about it.

If you can get the relevant technical authorization, even if you are a supporting manufacturer, it can occupy a large share.

And relying on his intuition for many years, judging from his eyes, neither Jin Sanshi nor Wang Chen is the kind of person who is particularly easy to get along with.

To put it bluntly, these two guys are also typical businessmen.

Especially Jin Sanshi, it is clear that eggs cannot be put in one basket.

Whether it is the three-legged support in the system or various cooperation in other aspects, it highlights a stable word.

If we can reach a cooperation... That....

Just when Mr. Lei was thinking about the possibility here, Lao Sun suddenly ran up from downstairs in a hurry.

"Mr. Lei, something happened."

"Huh? What's wrong, say it slowly. Seeing that his partner's expression was not very good, Mr. Lei also chuckled in his heart and hurriedly asked.

"Qualcomm repented, and our people couldn't sign the purchase agreement when they went to sign it." Exhaled, Lao Sun said slowly.

"What?" Mr. Lei's brows furrowed, a little incredulous.

They asked Qualcomm to purchase a line set up by a flower factory, and they had already talked about it, but now you tell me that the contract can't be signed?

Walking back and forth in the office a few times, Mr. Lei rubbed his temples and said angrily, "It must have been Google's doing, damn it, it's a good means." ”

"What now? Continue to talk to Qualcomm? Lao Sun nodded and asked.

You don't have to guess that it's Google's ghost, I thought I took it down, but I didn't expect to give it to myself again at a critical time.

"I guess it's useless, but the flower factory helped to take the lead before, and now people are willing to risk offending the flower factory to refuse us, to put it bluntly, it's already a decision."

Mr. Lei waved his hand and smiled bitterly.

"Then go to the flower factory?"

"No, although the flower factory helps us, it is for the sake of the domestic science and technology alliance, and even if they don't help, we can get the products of the door of science and technology, so it's just a favor.

Don't forget, we were the rivals of the flower factory before, and maybe people are still happy now, after all, there is one less opponent. ”

Sitting on the sofa, Mr. Lei thought for a long time before he said.

Business wars are like that, there are no eternal friends.

Besides, after he broke away from rice, his power plummeted, and it was already his duty that people were willing to help, and it was impossible for him to force more.

In essence, peers are still enemies, and it would be good not to fall into the ground.

"So what now? Without chips, mobile phones can't be made. ”

Lao Sun naturally understands the twists and turns.

But now is not the time to talk about that.

Rice mobile phones are on the way, and R&D is on the right track, but now it is notified that it cannot purchase chips.

This is not an ordinary blow.

"Do you want us to make our own chips? Anyway, now Europe and the United States will not restrict us from placing orders in other factories. ”

"No, chips are more troublesome than systems, that thing needs money, time and people, we don't have all three of these things at the moment, we can only purchase finished products. Hey, Huluo Plain was bullied by dogs, and it's not even a fart if there is no market. ”

Mr. Lei rubbed his face and couldn't help complaining.

That's the reality, fucking it up.

After thinking about it for more than ten minutes, Mr. Lei raised his head and gave an order: "In this way, it is divided into three steps, the first step is to find domestic chip manufacturers, they should not refuse to provide us with chips, but in that case, if you want to enter the mid-to-high-end field, I am afraid it will be delayed a lot."

But after all, we can solve the problem of existence and non-existence first, and as for the quality, let's take our time.

The second point is that you fly in person and go to Apple's headquarters to see if you can get the authorization of their chips.

If you want to say who else has chips that can compete with Qualcomm and flower factories, it is estimated that only Apple is the only one.

Third, I will go to the flower factory, although I know that Qualcomm is no longer able to supply, but I can weigh with the flower manufacturer to see if I can purchase their chips.

However, this matter is estimated to be difficult, although their chips have begun to resume supply, but they have only just been unblocked, and it is not enough for their own use, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to provide them to us.

Moreover, we are still competitive in nature, and who will use their own advantages to help their enemies?

There are many domestic mobile phone manufacturers, and it doesn't matter if there are one or two less, they have already done it on the front. ”

Three o'clock, three directions, after Mr. Lei finished speaking, Lao Sun nodded after thinking about it.

Although it is not possible to get the chips of Apple and Flower Factory, this is the way after all, and it is impossible to know until you go.

"Hey, if you can't get high-end chips, we will have a big disadvantage by relying on domestic chips alone, and we may have to go to the door of science and technology later, but this is the last resort, if there is no new way out, I will consider going to the door of science and technology for help."

With a long sigh, Mr. Lei also said helplessly.

Finding the door of science and technology was the first thing he thought of, but after thinking about it, he forgot it.

People don't produce chips at present, so they can't be forced to supply flowers to the flower factory for themselves, right? Let's not talk about anything else, I don't have such a big face.

As for Qualcomm, can you still not allow people not to sell it?

Free market and free trade, they are not strong enough to let the door of technology help themselves with a loss attitude.

To put it bluntly, rice is still too weak, unless it is bigger and stronger, otherwise this kind of thing will not be less in the future.

At present, it is not a dead end, and Mr. Lei also wants to rely on himself to see if he can solve it first.
