Chapter 239: Oh my God, that birch is crazy about technology?!
In addition, the Sugon mobile phone system is only semi-open source, not an open source system like Android, they just get the right to use the semi-open source Sugon mobile phone system.
In this life, Huawei Technology can't borrow chickens and eggs like in the previous life and engage in that set of "Android skin, Hongmeng bone" routine.
Not to mention anything else, as long as Shuguang Technology is unhappy, the Shuguang mobile phone system directly does not support the mobile phone chip developed by Huawei Technology, which can make Huawei Technology cry and faint in the toilet.
Therefore, this birch seems to have saved a few years of effort for technology, but in fact, if they really agree to reach a mutual licensing agreement with Shuguang Technology, then they will invisibly become the cage of Shuguang Technology.
This seems to be quite good news for Huawei Technology, but it is actually the news that has killed Huawei Technology, a company with unlimited potential in the future.
And the most annoying thing is that the actual benefits of both parties are not equal to the future of pay.
Huawei Technology has gained short-term gains, but has lost its future, and Shuguang Technology seems to have one more competitor to add to its own blockage.
But this is for Dawning Technology, there are more lice, no itching, more debts, and there are many strong enemies of Dawning Technology.
At this time, Birch Technology joined, in fact, to help the Sugon mobile phone system expand the software and game ecosystem, and share the pressure of the software and game ecosystem of the Sugon mobile phone system.
At present, the installed capacity of Saiban's mobile phone system is increasing, and even if Shuguang mobile phones can maintain full production and full sales, the proportion of sales cannot be compared with the total global mobile phone sales.
In this case, Sugon Technology actually hides a fatal crisis, which is that global mobile game and software developers may abandon Sugon mobile phone systems!
After all, developing software and games requires costs, and programmers' salaries are notoriously high, and the cost of hiring one programmer can hire two or three ordinary workers!
In the future, with the passage of time, the content of mobile games will become more and more abundant, and the functions of mobile software will also increase.
This means that the cost of developing mobile games and mobile software will be increasing.
In this case, if you have few mobile system users, then don't blame the global mobile game and software developers for abandoning your system.
Of course, this evil effect has not yet been shown in the current era, after all, the mobile games and software in the current era are too simple, and the development cost is not too large.
Therefore, many mobile game and software companies around the world do not mind developing mobile games and software with multiple system versions.
In this case, this evil result has naturally not yet appeared at the current point in time, and it may take a year or two to fully manifest it, and Lin Chen at this time is preparing for a rainy day.
Dawning Technology alone may not be able to compete with the number of users of the Symbian system in terms of the number of mobile phone system users, so what about adding Huawei Technology?
If it doesn't work anymore, then set up a wholly-owned subsidiary to enter the low-end mobile phone market, and then the number of mobile phone system users of the three will be superimposed?
Regarding the Sugon mobile phone system, Lin Chen does not expect to beat the Symbian mobile phone system in terms of the number of users, and Lin Chen's goal is to have 200 million to 400 million Sugon mobile phone system users in the world.
As long as there are 200 million to 400 million users, then the Sugon mobile phone system will be as stable as Mount Tai, and finally the huge prize money of the Amuros Cup Software and Game Competition will attract the birth of original mobile games and software.
After such a set of measures is implemented, Lin Chen does not have to worry about being abandoned by global mobile game and software developers in the future.
And this is also the reason why Shuguang Technology wants to win over Huawei Technology, Lin Chen is not doing anything to block himself, but secretly hiding how much he has a plan.
As for the problem that there is one more competitor, Dawning Technology, can eat less cake, first of all, Dawning Technology cannot eat most of the world's mobile phone sales share.
If Sugon Technology can eat 30% of the world's mobile phone sales, it will already be considered a supergod.
Therefore, even if Huawei Technology succeeded, it actually did not grab much of the cake of Shuguang Technology, but robbed other people's cakes.
As for the homogenization of mobile phones between the two sides, Lin Chen naturally has a way to make his mobile phone defeat the somewhat homogeneous Huawei mobile phone.
After all, the mobile phone system and processor are not the only selling points of the mobile phone, as a traverser, Lin Chen can play on the mobile phone.
Therefore, Sugon Technology seems to have invisibly made itself a strong competitor, but in fact, it is a competitor with unlimited potential.
Once the two sides really cooperate, then Huawei Technology can no longer do the same as in the previous life, and can only live under the cage of Shuguang Technology, be subject to Shuguang Technology, and contribute silently to Shuguang Technology.
Moreover, Sugon Technology has obtained the technical patents accumulated by Huawei Technology for more than 20 years through mutual licensing.
In the future, it will not only be able to develop its own 2G GSM and 3G WCDMA independent mobile communication chips for its own use or external sales.
It can also directly integrate the communication chip with the mobile phone processor to make it into a mobile phone SOC chip, and finally the comprehensive production cost is lower.
Of course, there is actually another thing that Shuguang Technology has to take advantage of, and this advantage lies in the 4G mobile communication technology that Shuguang Technology is developing.
Because 4G mobile communication technology was not born out of thin air, it is also based on the previous generation, in which it is impossible not to use the basic communication technology patents on 2G or 3G.
Therefore, even if Sugon Technology has developed its own 4G mobile communication technology, it will still have to pay patent fees to others in the future.
But at this time, after reaching a cooperation with Huawei Technology on mutual patent licensing, because you use my patent and I also use your patent, the patent fee will naturally cancel out a large part of each other.
Invisibly, Sugon Technology not only has the qualification to enter the communication industry, but also can invisibly save a lot of patent fees.
"I wonder what your company's plans are for the cooperation of mutual licensing of technology patents?"
Lin Chen smiled and asked Ren Zhengfei, the head of Huawei Technology.
"I personally agree with your company's cooperation proposal, but I still need to go back to a high-level meeting to decide."
Hearing the words of Ren Zhengfei, the head of Huawei, Lin Chen nodded lightly, and said secretly in his heart that after this matter was stabilized, he said with a smile:
"Yes, Mr. Ren can contact me at any time when the time comes."
"Hmm."
Ren Zhengfei nodded lightly and agreed.
So next, Lin Chen and Ren Zhengfei, as well as financial directors Meng Yazhou and Yu Chengxi, continued to talk about the details of the mutual licensing cooperation of technology patents.
Among them, the people on the science and technology side of Hua were obviously very excited, and they didn't realize that there was actually a conspiracy behind this cooperation.
After all, at this time, the ambition of Huawei Technology has not reached the level of the previous life, and they did not expect that they could achieve that level, and the ambition brought by the difference in strength is naturally different.
At this time, Huawei Technology is quite satisfied with the benefits obtained in the short term, and as for the long-term benefits, it is subconsciously ignored or even ignored.
It can only be said that both parties are quite satisfied with this cooperation, and they have all achieved what they want, which can be regarded as a mutually beneficial cooperation.
In this way, the dinner quickly dissolved.
Next, Lin Chen did not continue to accompany the negotiation of chip foundry, and directly handed over the negotiation to Rebus.
Lin Chen continued to be busy with the design of chip yield improvement and mobile phone communication chips, and time passed slowly.
On September 8, 2003, it was also the first anniversary of the official release of the first Sugon mobile phone.
In this just one anniversary, Sugon Technology once again convened many domestic and foreign reporters to come over for a press conference.
Seeing this, many reporters at home and abroad were naturally overjoyed.
Because according to the urine nature of Dawning Technology, I am afraid that there will be big news when Dawning Technology gathers everyone over this time, which is good news for their reporters.
However, when the reporters came to the scene and saw Lin Chen standing with Ren Zhengfei of Huawei Technology, they vaguely guessed the content of the press conference.
"I am very pleased that the press guests participated in this joint press conference between Shuguang Technology and Huawei Technology.
The main purpose of this press conference is to announce the details of the cooperation between Dawning Technology and Huawei Technology. ”
It was Lin Chen who spoke at this time, after all, as the host, it was naturally Lin Chen who spoke first.
"Mr. Lin Chen, what kind of cooperation have you reached with Huawei Technology?"
A reporter with the trademark "Nanfang Metropolis Daily" in the microphone asked Lin Chen.
Seeing this, Lin Chen didn't hide it, but replied directly:
"Our cooperation is mainly divided into two parts, one of which is that we will OEM chips for Birch Technology.
The total amount of this foundry chip order may reach the scale of 7 billion summer dollars per year! ”
"Wow!"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, the scene was in an uproar.
Many reporters who don't know how to do it were surprised by the huge amount of chip foundry and surprised that Sugon Technology won a super large order.
After all, 7 billion summer dollars is equivalent to 846 million US dollars at an exchange rate of 1 to 8.27!
This birch technology will spend $846 million every year to find Sugon Technology foundry chips, which is a super big order.
The reporters who knew about Huawei's scientific and technological intelligence all looked at Ren Zhengfei in disbelief, suspecting that Huawei Technology had gone crazy.
After all, according to their understanding, the total turnover of Huawei Technology in 2002 last year was only 22.1 billion summer yuan, and this year, Huawei Technology has developed well, and it is said that the total turnover can exceed 30 billion summer yuan.
But now Lin Chen said that the scale of this chip foundry can reach 7 billion a year, and there is something wrong with the comparison of these two data.
