Chapter 380: $35 Billion!
Of course, whether they purchase or not, Dawning memory and Dawning display.
When they purchased Sugon CPUs, Sugon graphics cards, and Sugon low-end motherboards, Sugon Technology was the one that made the most profits.
They will just be vassals of Dawning Computer, although they can make a little money, but the one who earns the most will always be Dawning Technology!
Therefore, after this behavior is achieved, although the sales of low-end computers of Sugon Technology will usher in a round of decline, the actual profit will not decline much, and may even be higher.
As a result, the potential anti-dumping and anti-dumping investigation crackdowns can also be avoided, which can be regarded as acceptable.
"In that case, then I have no opinion."
Li Qianqiang, the sales director who came back to his senses, slowly said his reply.
Seeing this, other senior executives also agreed, and all agreed to sell the low-end motherboard of Sugon to avoid a potential crisis of anti-dumping and anti-dumping investigations.
So at this time, many senior executives of Shuguang Technology, including Lin Chen, did not know that Shuguang Technology had inadvertently avoided a dead end in advance, which was the anti-dumping investigation!
The anti-dumping investigation is different from the anti-dumping investigation, the anti-dumping position in the anti-dumping investigation is too vague, and it really depends on the mouth of others to have a relatively clear anti-dumping investigation.
If people say that you have dumped, then you can only accept the punishment honestly, and then accept the fine and bear higher taxes than others or be directly banned from selling in the country.
At this time, Sugon Technology sold low-end computer motherboards together with Sugon CPU, Sugon graphics card, Sugon memory, Sugon LCD display, etc.
From now on, others can purchase Sugon computer accessories to produce their own "Sugon computers", in this case, it will be more difficult for Medi to sue Sugon Technology for anti-dumping.
Therefore, Sugon Technology has invisibly avoided an anti-dumping investigation, which is a blessing in misfortune.
It can be said that this decision alone has virtually saved hundreds of millions of dollars in litigation costs a year!
However, at this time, Lin Chen and those senior executives didn't know this, and after Lin Chen talked about this matter and made a decision, they quickly came to the next topic.
I saw Lin Chen at this time and said with a solemn face:
"Although we have achieved big victories in the computer industry, the current victory does not mean that we will continue to win in the future.
Because the world is constantly moving forward, we cannot bask in the glory of the present and ignore the potential crises of the future.
First of all, our biggest crisis is that the chip manufacturing process technology lags behind the world!
In order to speed up the 65nm process time, we need to hire more researchers and burn more material funds.
Finally, we need to make up for the last shortcoming, that is, to make up for the current situation that high-end photoresists and high-end chemical materials are still heavily dependent on external procurement.
In the next year, we need to spend about $26 billion to conquer the chip production equipment of the 65nm process, develop high-end photoresists, high-end chemical materials, and finally improve the yield rate of the 65nm process.
And this does not include the development of new mobile phones, new computers, CPU processors, mobile phone processors, mobile phone GPU chips, computer graphics cards, monitors, and memory modules.
R&D expenditures for the Unreal Engine 3 game engine, Unreal Engine 4, the Sugon programming language, maintenance and updates to the Sugon computer operating system, and the Sugon smartphone system.
All these things add up, and you have to prepare at least $6 billion a year for R&D!
Finally, add to this the company's own development and maintenance expenses, and to be on the safe side, we need to prepare at least $35 billion in future expenditures! ”
Hearing Lin Chen's words, the people at the scene instantly fell silent, because Lin Qiang's words were a little too crazy.
Lin Chen actually claimed that he would be ready to spend $35 billion a year in the future, which is really crazy!
Although the $35 billion is not spent so much by Sugon Technology, but the six major companies under Sugon Holdings spend $35 billion together, this is really crazy!
After all, what company can make him $35 billion a year?
Wei Soft's profit last year was only $12.2 billion, and Intel's profit was only $7.5 billion!
But Sugon Technology has to be prepared to spend $35 billion a year, how is this not crazy?
Of course, other companies can't do it, but Sugon Technology can, because Sugon Technology has the profit support of the mobile phone industry and the computer industry!
Therefore, although the expenditure of 35 billion US dollars in the next year is a bit huge, it can actually barely be supported, after all, Sugon Technology is in the king position in the mobile phone market and the computer market.
When other companies fail to launch products that can compete with Dawning mobile phones and Dawning computers, they can naturally make huge profits by virtue of their close to the status of the ridge.
But this is actually not safe, because the market is always changing, and it is the norm for you to sing and I appear.
So you can make so much money now, and you may not be able to continue to make so much money in the future, the market is always changing.
And Intel in the computer industry, Weisoft and even Nvidia seem to be plotting something.
The four giants of the mobile phone industry, such as Moto Luola, Nuojia, Sanyi Electronics, and Suo Ni Ailixin, have been developing smartphones for more than a year, and they are all menacing to defeat Shuguang Technology and replace them!
Therefore, at present, as other old giants in the mobile phone industry and the computer industry attach great importance to Sugon Technology, and invest large sums of money in the research and development of new core technologies, Sugon Technology is facing more and more pressure.
It is becoming more and more difficult for Sugon Technology to continue to maintain its position as the current market leader, and it can even be said that it will never be possible in the long run.
So theoretically speaking, Sugon Technology will not be able to come up with $35 billion in the next year, at least it is not 100% sure that it will be able to come up with so much money!
So, Li Qianqiang, the sales director who came back to his senses, hurriedly spoke and suggested:
"Isn't the $35 billion R&D expenditure in the next year too huge, although we can barely afford it with the profits of mobile phones and computers, it doesn't mean that it can be in the future.
The four major mobile phone giants such as Moto Luola, Nojia, Sanyi Electronics, and Suo Ni Ailixin have been jointly developing smartphones for a year, and we don't know what the situation of their smartphones is.
It is foreseeable that the smartphone market will usher in the impact of the four major mobile phone giants in the future, which means that our profits will be greatly reduced.
And we don't know how strong the Intel Core processors are on the Intel side of the computer industry, and their Core processors may have a violent impact on our Dawning computers after they are released.
In this case, we have to be prepared to spend $35 billion a year, which is a bit too large, and I think we should reduce the expenditure on R&D.
In particular, there is too much R&D funding for the 65nm process, and I think it should be enough to attenuate to $10 billion, and we have to think of other ways to do other things.
After all, we can't leave all the pressure of advancing the 65nm process to us, which doesn't make sense.
We should find a way to let "others", such as let Daxia Guanfu shoulder the pressure of R&D funding for the other half of the 65nm process technology. (End of chapter)
