Chapter 46: Two Lines

In the design department, which had more than 20 people, there were only 14 people left.

Zhou Zhen was not uncomfortable with this.

After all, these people are also stumbling on themselves, so it is better to let them leave so that they can arrange future work.

"In that case, let's move on to the design of the note3 product!"

Zhou Zhen looked at the remaining dozen or so people, and also directly put the meeting to the point.

After all, note3 is expected to be officially launched in the third quarter, leaving little time for Zhou Zhen to design products.

The other side! The problems that erupted in the Note3 project team were also brought to Rebus.

After hearing this, Rebus also showed a complicated expression on his face at this time.

After thinking for a moment, Rebus still called Zhou Zhen and asked what happened.

After learning what happened, Rebus comforted Zhou Zhen and hurriedly instructed the assistant to arrange these people who had left the project team to other project teams.

Zhou Zhen in the office put his mobile phone aside at this time.

"You can make products with peace of mind, and I will be responsible for any problems or things!"

Rebus's reassuring words made Zhou Zhen's originally unhappy mood much more comfortable.

But for Rebus's reassuring words, Zhou Zhen never took him seriously.

As a person who has come over, Zhou Zhen naturally knows that most of this sentence still has the meaning of "flickering" and "painting a big cake".

After all, if there is a problem in the design and production of the product at that time, Rebus, as the head of the company, will naturally not be able to take the blame for himself.

What's more, the relationship between the two is nothing more than that of collaborators, and Rebus is even more unlikely to take the blame for himself.

However, in his position, Zhou Zhen still wants to do a good job of the rice mobile phone note3.

In terms of chips, Zhou Zhen resolutely refused to use the mid-range processor chip of Fire Dragon 660.

As a flagship product that hits the high-end, the rice mobile phone note3 naturally uses this year's flagship chip, Fire Dragon 835.

The production capacity of the fire dragon 835 is now slightly insufficient, but for the final reputation of the product, the fire dragon 835 is indispensable as the core of a mobile phone.

Secondly, there is also a need for drastic improvements in the appearance of the phone and the screen of the phone.

The overall design of the original Rice Phone Note3 can be said to be a copy of the Rice Phone 6.

That's right, it's still the kind of Rice phone that doesn't use a full-screen design6.

Rice note series,Its positioning is higher than that of Rice's mobile phone digital series,Naturally, the overall design of the product is better than Rice mobile phone6。

Brand new back cover design!

Brand new lens mods!

A whole new type of mobile screen!

Overall, this time Zhou Zheng is going to make the rice note3 a top flagship in the true sense.

Whether it is the appearance design of the product or the hardware stacking, it must reach the plan that other rice mobile phones cannot match.

"The screen can be designed like the Mi note2S, and the screen must be the best in the industry!"

"The unlocking method also has to make a breakthrough, and you can't follow the rules like this!"

"The design of the back cover of the phone has to be changed! The design is too traditional! ”

Zhou Zhen's words also made the entire design team feel unusually big.

After all, these design changes have made the current design team feel like a big head.

It's really a big head!

It's just too wildly, and even makes the current Rice Mobile phone team feel that this product is simply burning money.

Specially customized back cover, just designing the mold requires a lot of money.

The customized top-notch screen is burning money again!

Coupled with a series of other configuration changes, the design of the original Rice mobile phone Note3 has been turned upside down.

And Wang Teng, who is in charge of the product supply chain, also directly found Zhou Zhen after learning such news.

"Mr. Zhou, the design and design of the product this time is a bit too laborious, and my hardware problems simply cannot meet the current needs!"

"In particular, the inventory of the Fire Dragon 835 processor chip ......"

Wang Teng also raised his own question,

Although the design has changed dramatically this time, the current rice company is unable to provide a corresponding sufficient supply of components.

In particular, the most core processor chip, Fire Dragon 835.

Huolong 835 is a 10nm process processor chip manufactured by Sansang foundry.

Because it is the first generation of 10nm process processor chips, the production capacity is not very large.

This also leads to the fact that the production capacity of Huolong 835 purchased by Rice Company is not very large.

The Xiaomi mobile phone 6 series equipped with the Fire Dragon 835 has often been out of stock since it was launched.

According to Wang Teng's explanation, the company's inventory of Fire Dragon 835 processor chips that can be used in mobile phones is less than 2 million pieces.

The core processor chips can't keep up......

This made Zhou Zhen a little helpless, could it be that the rice mobile phone note3 really wants to use the fire dragon 660 of the non-flagship processor chip.

"I already know about this, let me think about it again!"

After Zhou Zhen got Wang Teng's explanation, he also began to think deeply.

Building a top-notch flagship must be built, but the current conditions seem to be a bit difficult.

The inventory of Fire Dragon 835 is less than 2 million, which is destined to make it difficult to realize the products designed for the rice note3.

"Maybe you can think differently!"

And Zhou Zhen, who has been thinking about it for a long time, seems to have a new idea.

A mediocre but not so ordinary medium cup!

The ultimate experience and a big cup blessed by black technology!

Zhou Zhen completely figured it out, since the inventory of the fire dragon 835 processor chip is only a little bit, then the fire dragon 835 processor, the note3 of the chip will be done to the extreme.

The ultimate hardware configuration!

The ultimate black technology experience!

A high-end flagship design that doesn't make any compromises and doesn't do anything cost-conscious.

Thinking about all this, Zhou Zhen once again held a corresponding design team meeting and began to re-plan the Rice mobile phone Note3 series.

The successive half-monthly meetings made the design team haggard.

As the saying goes, hard work pays off, and after half a month, the two related product design drawings finally appeared on Rebus's desk.

After all, the design of the product is made upside down by the design team, but the final decision is still in the hands of the big boss Rebus.

Looking at the two different design proposals sent over, Rebus was also interested.

To be honest, he didn't expect that Zhou Zhen would choose to create two different product lines for the Note series this time.

"Rice note3,It's relatively good,The overall product design is OK!"

"Rice note3Pro,The design of this product,It's just perfect,But the cost won't be low!"

Looking at the two different design schemes, Rebus is still very satisfied with this, but satisfaction is satisfaction, as the person in charge of the company, the primary consideration is the cost of product production.

Obviously, the rice mobile phone note3Pro, as a top-notch design version, is simply a huge gap with the rice mobile phone note3.

And from the design of the product and the corresponding requirements of the hardware this time,Rice note3Many core parts of the hardware used in the overall series are from the soft feather company。

Including some new technology and black technology!

"The cost of this rice note3Pro light screen,Coupled with these technologies used on the screen, it can be similar to the cost of the whole machine of the rice mobile phone6!"

"The cost of this phone is estimated to be twice that of the Mi Phone 6!"

At this moment, Rebus also made corresponding considerations for the production of this product.

The ordinary version of the Rice mobile phone note3 is very much in line with Rebus's expectations, not only the overall product design is relatively good, but also the cost is relatively small.

However, the top version of the Rice mobile phone note3 series is among them, adding a lot of hard-core technology and very excellent design concepts.

This also makes the cost of the whole phone further increase.

"Anyway, the production output won't be too much, so let's test the water!"

After a moment of reflection, Rebus finally signed his name.
