Chapter 754 Fruit Shell II Generation
Even though Wang Yu was in an invincible position in Qin Shiyu's heart, she still couldn't believe that Nokia would be defeated like this.
In her opinion, such a probability is really small and negligible, so she will say this exclamation in front of Wang Yu, which can be regarded as some kind of doubt.
"A lot of people think I'm betting, but Apple's old Joe believes it!"
Wang Yu took the teacup from Ruan Peiling's hand and continued: "He is a kind of intuition between belief and vagueness, and I have a clear underlying logic. ”
I had probably heard Wang Yu talk about it before, and Qin Shiyu blurted out: "Mobile phone system?!" ”
"Although Apple is working on its own system, at least it is still using Android!"
"So do we."
Qin Shiyu muttered to herself: "You were the first to invest in the Nuwa system in the southwest, but the first generation of Guoke is also using Android."
"The noble Nokia itself has a not-so-perfect Symbian system, how can they lower their noble heads to use Android?"
Wang Yu's fingers tapped on the table: "Users will vote with the money in their hands, you look at it, it will only take a year or two"
For a moment, there was silence in the office.
What didn't happen, Wang Yu didn't force Qin Shiyu to accept it now, so he changed the topic and asked: "Let's talk about the research and development progress of the second generation of Guohu!" ”
"The overall R&D progress of Guoke II is almost 80% complete!"
After putting aside the question, Qin Shiyu packed up her mood and opened a document on the computer desktop.
"Boss, you see, these are several key problems that need to be solved by the second generation of Guoke, I have listed a table and reflected the current research and development progress in the table."
Wang Yu browsed the table while listening to Qin Shiyu's explanation.
"First of all, based on the size of the mobile phone,Fruit shell I generation compared to male users,It's still a little smaller,Especially when text input,The small size of the fruit shell I generation obviously has extremely obvious defects,This time we want to use a 4-inch LCD screen,And the resolution should also be improved"
Qin Shiyu remembered these data vividly without looking at the computer: "Since you have reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Samsung, there is no problem in this area, all kinds of adaptability tests have been completed, and the procurement contract with Samsung has also been ready to be signed."
Speaking of this, she looked at Wang Yu behind the computer and said: "Boss, is this the reason why you want to cooperate with Changhong Group to develop mobile phone LCD panels?" ”
Wang Yu did not answer Qin Shiyu directly, but said otherwise: "The era of smart phones is coming, and all kinds of domestic smart phones will also appear in piles next year, and Changhong's cooperative research and development projects, it is not difficult to meet the production of low-grade mobile phone LCD panels in the early stage, which is also the way to survive in the market."
This kind of answer is not what Qin Shiyu understands, Wang Yu means that at least for a few years, mobile phone LCD panels have to rely on imports, and the project in Mianyang can only rely on the low-end market to support itself in a short period of time, and there is still a long way to go to catch up with the world-class level!
"The second point is the speed of the network."
After skipping the first point, Qin Shiyu talked about the second article on the table: "At present, the mainstream mobile phones circulating in the domestic market generally support HSDPA or HSDPA+, and the speed is only 21Mbps or even 14.4Mbps, and our Unicom's WCDMA now only supports 21Mbps, and you insist on requiring the speed to reach 42Mbps, isn't it a waste?" ”
"It's always going to level up!"
Wang Yu said with a smile: "Just take it as a surprise in the ambush!" ”
"The third point is the improvement of the battery life performance of the second generation of Guoke, which is a bit difficult, and the current progress is not large."
Qin Shiyu continued to report: "At present, Samsung has done a better job in this area abroad, and from the test of existing products, its performance can barely reach the indicators of the second generation of Guohu, so it is not considered to be like a display screen. Part of the advanced port? ”
"Let's walk on two legs!"
Wang Yu thought for a while and said, "Haven't you connected with Guoke New Energy?" ”
"Isn't our Guoke New Energy a company that produces large-scale batteries?"
In Qin Shiyu's concept, one of the earliest companies to be spun off from engine technology, it is ready to be supplied to future new energy vehicles, and the direction of R&D and production is completely different from that of mobile phone batteries.
"You!"
After clicking on Qin Shiyu, Wang Yu picked up his mobile phone and dialed Guo Yuan's number.
"Come to my office!"
Wang Yu said directly on the phone: "Bring the battery technology research and development data of Guoke New Energy!" ”
After hanging up the phone, Wang Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "Ask Guo Yuan later, even if Guoke New Energy has not developed mobile phone batteries for the time being, but the technical theory is universal, and when the time comes, it will be like a mobile phone LCD panel, while developing and importing part of it." ”
Qin Shiyu's cheeks were slightly red and nodded, she did make a dogmatic mistake in this matter, and she took it for granted.
Guo Yuan was on the 37th floor, and it only took a few minutes to come up, so she didn't let Wang Yu and Qin Shiyu wait long before she came over with the computer.
"Boss, Mr. Qin!"
"Sit down there and talk about it."
Wang Yu clicked on the reception area, then pressed the button on the side of the table, and called Ruan Peiling in again.
Qin Shiyu also came to the reception area with the computer in his hand and sat down, and took the initiative to ask Guo Yuan without waiting for Wang Yu to speak: "Is there a mobile phone battery research and development in the direction of new energy battery research and development of Guoke New Energy?" ”
"Yes!"
Two short words popped out of Guo Yuan's mouth, which immediately surprised and delighted Qin Shiyu.
Wang Yu didn't interject anymore, took care of the cigar by himself, and asked Ruan Peiling to take out a box of 7-year-old white tea to brew.
Although he didn't have the whole set of smooth movements of making Pu'er, Wang Yu seemed to be glued to the tea table, smoking a cigar leisurely, drinking sweet white tea, and seemed to forget that there were two generals behind him discussing very important things.
"Boss"
Qin Shiyu's slightly embarrassed voice came from behind him: "Guoke New Energy is already providing mobile phone batteries to domestic mobile phone brands!" ”
"In other words, the technical parameters do not meet the needs of the second generation of Guoke?"
"Not yet!"
"Give me the indicator parameters of the demand!"
Guo Yuan raised her eyebrows, as if she was now the CEO of Guoke New Energy: "At present, in the research of lithium batteries, Guoke New Energy can be said to be at the forefront of the industry, and the technology is the same. ”
Qin Shiyu looked at Guo Yuan with her mouth slightly open, and then looked at Wang Yu.
Wang Yu half-turned to look at Guo Yuan, with a smile on his face.
The expression on Guo Yuan's face suddenly became richer, and after a long time, he turned his head and stopped talking.
"I'll give you a position when I go back!"
Wang Yu turned to Ruan Peiling and said, "Later, the director will draft a document and appoint Guo Yuan, director of the secretary committee of the board of directors, to concurrently serve as the director and executive vice president of Guoke New Energy Group!" ”
"Okay, boss!"
Just when Ruan Peiling agreed, the corners of Guo Yuan's mouth, who turned her head, tapped, revealing an irrepressible joy.
"You two will go back to this matter in private."
After Wang Yu finished ordering the two of them, he looked at Qin Shiyu: "You continue!" ”
"The fourth point is the chip problem."
Qin Shiyu sorted out his mood and continued his report: "Originally, the first generation of Guoke used a dual-core A9 architecture, and now it is very difficult to significantly improve the performance, the public relations team has considered using a quad-core architecture, but it is obviously not possible, and the final conclusion is that unless a more advanced chip process is used!" ”
“32nm?”
Qin Shiyu nodded.
In the memory of his previous life, the 32nm process chip was not available until 2011, and now it is only the second half of 2009, and it is obvious that the world's most high-end chips are not satisfied.
"Let's put this on hold for now!"
Wang Yu sighed helplessly: "This thing will not be solved for a while and a half, and it may not be possible to achieve it next year, looking back at the situation after Cai Jingan's chip factory investment is completed, if the 32nm technology is realized by then, it will be convenient to purchase!" ”
At the same time, a thought suddenly flashed through Wang Yu's mind: stacking technology!
Without waiting for him to continue thinking, Qin Shiyu talked about the fifth point.
"The last point is the technical issue of the front and rear cameras."
At the beginning, in order to catch up with the first generation of Guoke, Wang Yu adopted a compromise policy, the pixels of the rear camera of the mobile phone are okay, but the front camera is only 300,000 pixels, which is really not like words.
Therefore, when developing the second generation of Guohu, Wang Yu insisted on solving this problem of compromise at the beginning.
"According to the requirement of at least 900,000 pixels, preferably 1.2 million pixels, I estimate that it can be completed before the release time of the Guoke II generation plan."
Qin Shiyu looked at Wang Yu and said, "I will keep an eye on the progress of this piece!" ”
"Hmm!"
Wang Yu was a little absent-minded, and his mind was always circling with the "flash of inspiration" just now.
"The rest is some small technical upgrades, such as the installation of new APP software, such as shell material upgrades."
Qin Shiyu turned the computer in Wang Yu's direction again: "These are listed separately in a table, and the progress is also marked, there are a total of eleven improvements like this, and the problems are not big at present, and they can be completed according to the established plan." ”
After the report, Qin Shiyu found that Wang Yu seemed to be paying attention to other places, and he didn't know whether to disturb for a while.
Instead, Guo Yuan asked softly on the side: "Mr. Qin, excluding the chip problem that the boss just said, when is the Guoke II generation expected to be launched?" ”
Qin Shiyu thought about it and replied: "The development conference will be held almost at the end of June next year!" ”
"So slow?"
According to Guo Yuan's understanding, the mobile phone styles on the market now, the same brand will basically come up with a main new machine in the first half of the year, and the second generation of Guoke will take nearly a year, which is a bit slow in her opinion.
"We don't have enough technical reserves!"
Qin Shiyu said with a bitter face: "You also heard part of the report just now, from the operating system to the mobile phone display, from the chip to the battery, almost everything has to be purchased from the outside, there are really not many things that Guoke Electronic Technology can do now, the patent involved so far is the industrial shape design of the mobile phone, as for the model concept of the new generation of smart phones, this thing can only be regarded as a commercial idea, and cannot be called a patent."
"No wonder the boss wants to set up such a big stall!"
Guo Yuan sighed: "From the layout of the chip industry, to the R&D industry of mobile phone LCD panels, the new energy battery industry, and the Nuwa system. , the boss of the mobile phone processing production base is building a closed-loop production chain of fruit shell mobile phones! ”
"That's at least ten years from now!"
Qin Shiyu also lowered her voice and said, "I really can't imagine how much money I have to invest in the past ten years, if the boss uses it to do something else, it will be so easy."
"That's why he's worth following, isn't he?"
Guo Yuan winked at Qin Shiyu: "This time I'm in HK, but I can't get scolded!" ”
“?”
Facing Qin Shiyu's puzzled eyes, Guo Yuan repeated Bai Jieru's original words.
Qin Shiyu looked thoughtful, looked at Guo Yuan after a moment and said, "It was Fan Jie at the beginning, and then Zhang Jingyan, and now you are beginning to realize if you count one!" ”
"Fan is not considered to be enlightened, right?"
Guo Yuan replied without thinking: "She has already dedicated herself to the boss, unlike us who have so many ideas!" ”
"I've got a way to do it!"
When the two were talking softly, Wang Yu on the side suddenly shouted loudly: "I can solve the matter of 32nm process chips!" ”
For a moment, the office was surprisingly quiet!
Even Ruan Peiling, who was making tea, was cautious and didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Guo Yuan and Qin Shiyu glanced at each other and looked at each other.
Because he has accompanied Wang Yu to the southwest many times, and he has also come into contact with those laboratories during the inspection, he knows some knowledge about the chip industry.
Especially Qin Shiyu, after taking over the position of president of Guoke Electronics, because it involves the development and production of smart phones, she has a deep understanding of the most critical part.
Now the world's most advanced mass production chips have only reached the 45nm process, note, it is all over the world!
Just now I obviously talked about putting this topic on hold for the time being, and at this moment Wang Yu suddenly shouted that he could solve the problem of 32nm process chips, isn't this a joke!
But looking at Wang Yu's excited expression, it didn't look like he was joking.
"The chip manufacturing process went from 0.35 microns to 0.25 microns at the beginning, and then to 0.18 microns, 0.13 microns, 90nm, 65nm, 45nm Smaller geometries mean more transistors per square millimeter, which means higher density, clocking, thermal design power, and lower transistor voltage."
Wang Yu compared: "The chip manufacturing process refers to the line width of the gate in the transistor structure, that is, the value in the nano process, the narrower the width, the lower the power consumption. With the current process technology, the extreme limit is 45nm, but I have a way to make the performance of the 32nm process! ”
Seeing that Qin Shiyu and Guo Yuan still looked in disbelief, Wang Yu raised his head and glanced around, and then pointed to the desk: "Help me get a blank piece of paper and a pen!" ”
Guo Yuan, who was sitting on the outermost side, was the first to stand up and walk to Wang Yu's desk, and helped him get an A4 white paper and a pen.
At this time, Ruan Peiling had consciously walked to the door of the office, she didn't think that this important secret was accessible to her now.
Wang Yu, who picked up the pen, thought of these at this time, and drew two connected squares on the white paper, and then marked the number 65nm on one of the sides of the square.
"Now that the process technology has reached 45nm, it is no problem to produce chips with a 65nm process, right?"
Wang Yu, who was still holding the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked Qin Shiyu and Guo Yuan.
Qin Shiyu and Guo Yuan glanced at each other again, although they didn't understand what Wang Yu was doing when he asked this, they still nodded.
"Let's say these are two chips with a 65nm process, then"
Wang Yu drew a square dwarf cube with a pen.
After a pause, the pen drew a circle heavily, marking the number 65nm on it, and a number (45nm) after 65
Qin Shiyu: "."
Guo Yuan: "."
"Geometric thinking, using stacking to get chips with the same performance as 32nm process!"
Wang Yu threw the pen on the glass coffee table, picked up half a cigar on the ashtray and took two puffs in succession: "I don't know if this is feasible in actual production, but in theory it can be done!" ”
This is a modest statement, Wang Yu's memory before his rebirth someone did this, and also registered a patent, although the impression is not so simple, maybe it also involves the use of EDA software to optimize the design of the circuit on the chip, but anyway, it is still successful!
At that time, it was from 14nm to 7nm, and now, Wang Yu is just leaping from 65nm to 32nm, and there is no reason not to succeed.
"Let's go."
Only the sound of Wang Yu smoking a cigar and the heavy breathing of Guo Yuan and Qin Shiyu remained in the reception area.
"Boss, if this thing can really be successful"
Qin Shiyu's voice was trembling when she spoke, because she clearly knew one thing, if when the second generation of Guoke was released next year, if a chip equivalent to the 32nm process function was installed in the new generation of smartphones, what kind of advantage would it be?
"It's going to take a lot of experiments, and it's going to have to be kept secret!"
Guo Yuan's first thought was of these two things, especially the latter: "Anyway, it shouldn't be very difficult to buy the technology that is two generations behind now, the key is that if the method said by the boss is feasible, it must be kept strictly confidential!" ”
"Ask Jingyan over there, I remember that when I first set up the laboratory, I bought a set of lithography equipment, and I don't know if I can make chips with 65nm process."
Qin Shiyu thought of Zhang Jingyan for the first time, she looked at Wang Yu and said, "Boss, what Guo Yuan said is right, the most important thing now is to keep it secret, even if it is to demonstrate feasibility. Because none of us knew it would be feasible! ”
"I think it should work!"
At this time, Guo Yuan supported Wang Yu: "In addition to confidentiality, production capacity is also a problem!" ”
"If you want to keep it secret, you can only make sacrifices in terms of production capacity!"
Qin Shiyu immediately showed his commercial talent at this time: "At that time, there will be two versions of the second generation of Guoke, one ordinary version will still use a chip with a 45nm process, and the other will design a flagship version to raise the price, which will limit the number of sales, and the impact on production capacity will be a little smaller." ”
"Your abacus is crackling!"
Wang Yu laughed: "In this way, although the sales of the flagship version are small, the profit is not low, one is worth three ordinary versions"
While laughing, he got up and walked to his desk, picked up the mobile phone resting on the table, and dialed Zhang Jingyan's number.
The phone rang a few times, but it was cut off.
After less than a minute, Wang Yu's mobile phone rang, and it was Zhang Jingyan who called back.
"I thought you were out of class in your senior year."
Wang Yu said with a smile after answering the phone: "Did you disturb your class just now?" ”
"Although there are few classes in the first half of the semester, there are still some, and I will enter the internship period in the next semester."
Zhang Jingyan's voice was still not high at this time, and it seemed that she should be talking to Wang Yu on the phone in the corridor outside the classroom.
"Now go to the playground and make sure no one else around can hear you!"
Wang Yu explained: "Call me back when you arrive." ”
was stunned by Wang Yu's sudden explanation, and Zhang Jingyan hung up the phone directly after a while.
Walking back to the sofa and sitting down, Wang Yu put his mobile phone on the glass coffee table in front of him, picked up the teacup and drank tea.
"I'll make tea!"
Seeing that the tea in Wang Yu's cup was only half gone, Guo Yuan stood up and walked to the tea table, taking Ruan Peiling's place just now.
"Boss, are we going to do the whole industry chain?"
Taking advantage of the gap between waiting for the call, Qin Shiyu asked Wang Yu curiously: "You are now exerting force from the source to the end of the industrial chain, do you want to move closer to the middle on both sides, and slowly gnaw down the easy and then the difficult?" ”
"Even if you squeeze me dry and sell it all, you won't be able to do the whole industry chain!"
Wang Yu shook his head and said: "This thing is put abroad, and it is also a thing that many developed countries can only put together, how can I be alone?" ”
"What about you.?"
"From the Desay of mobile phone batteries to BOE of LED LCD panels, there are now Lenovo and SMIC in the entire semiconductor industry chain under the leadership of Lao Ni in addition to us, there are many companies that are slowly accumulating strength."
Wang Yu thought for a while and said: "Although everyone is still very weak now, if the entire industrial chain is regarded as a big mountain, we are a group of ants, one in the east and one in the west, and sooner or later this mountain will be gnawed down!" ”
"We're part of this group of ants!"
Qin Shiyu looked at Wang Yu with flickering eyes: "Boss, I find that I am getting more and more motivated, and when you say this, I have a sense of mission!" ”
"Don't have a sense of mission!"
Wang Yu waved his hand and said: "First take the survival of the enterprise as the main goal, and then talk about other things when this is achieved!" ”
Just as Qin Shiyu was about to continue, Wang Yu's mobile phone rang.
"Brother Yu, I'm on the small playground at school."
"I remember that two years ago, iFLYTEK Electronic Technology engaged in the research and development of chip cutting process, and bought a set of technical equipment at that time, how many nano process?"
Wang Yu didn't ask anything else, and went straight to the point.
"It is the introduction of a complete set of equipment, 65nm process!"
Zhang Jingyan didn't know why Wang Yu was so mysterious, and asked if she needed to run to a place where no one was there?
Thinking that there were more important things, she answered Wang Yu and waited quietly for his next question.
"You go and determine one thing now, can we start from photolithography and go all the way to cutting, and independently complete the chip of the 65nm process!"
Wang Yu instructed: "Also, if there is any new progress in the research on circuit design optimization that I mentioned last time, ask now, I will wait for your news!" ”
After hanging up the phone again, Wang Yu found that Qin Shiyu's eyes were staring at him without blinking.
"Don't look at it, once confirmed, let's fly to Rongcheng in the afternoon!"
Wang Yu nodded Qin Shiyu with a smile and said, "Go and see if my idea can be realized!" ”
"Boss, I'm suddenly a little nervous right now."
Qin Shiyu couldn't help but stretch out her tongue and lick her lips and said, "Guo Yuan, what about the tea you made. I'm thirsty! ”
At the same time, Wang Yu's mobile phone rang not long ago, and Zhang Jingyan's phone called back again.
