Chapter 34 Undercurrent surges, Kunpeng Meilan lifts purchase restrictions
As Lin Xiaolong’s fate was explained, more and more bloggers also forwarded it and expressed their opinions in the comment area.
[Xiao Po Station - Hadron]: "Brother Long's analysis is good. Although the numerical values of 20 nanometers and 28 nanometers are not much different, the performance of the two is absolutely different."< br>
[Huaqiangbei's Second Brother in Machinery]: "No one has gotten the actual chip yet, but from the perspective of 20 nanometers alone, it has already surpassed the 28 nanometer process chips."
< br>[Society Your Brother Mao]: “I already have a hunch that Longxing Technology’s current position in the sinking market will be affected. The poor performance of the processor chip is the Achilles heel of the Longxing X1 mobile phone. Gaotong Company is addressing the Achilles’ heel. Let’s do it.”
The blogger’s fate has caused netizens to discuss it, and the popularity of the topic continues to rise.
A moment later.
It has reached the top of the hot search list.
What puzzles many people is that the reputation of Gaotong has changed again after the release of the Snapdragon 810 processor.
Some people believe that Gaotong Company’s purchase restrictions on Longxing Technology Company, Kunpeng Company, and Meilan Company are just normal business games. What does it have to do with their users?
They just come to buy mobile phones and do not participate in the competition between companies. They will buy whoever is cheap and easy to use. Boycotting Gaotong chips has nothing to do with them.
Some people believe that although Gaotong's competitive methods are despicable, their Snapdragon processors are really not bad, and they are willing to pay for high-performance processors.
There are different opinions on the Internet, and everyone is expressing their own opinions.
However, the performance of Snapdragon processors is indeed powerful. Apart from Apple's A-series processors and Korean Star Group's Orion processors, there are no competitors.
As for MediaTek...
It has always wanted to benchmark Snapdragon processors, but what is the result?
MediaTek MT6592 processor was exposed to be a fake eight-core processor. One core is working and seven cores are watching. In addition to increasing power consumption, there is no performance improvement at all. It is now a joke on the entire Internet, and it has also been criticized for the Longxing X1 mobile phone. All were killed.
The fact that it can create a fake eight-core technology to fool the public shows how poor its scientific research team is, at least it is very poor at the moment!
Excluding MediaTek processors, Apple's A-series processors and Orion processors are not supplied externally, and the entire mobile phone processor chip market can only be dominated by Gaotong.
After the Snapdragon 810 processor became a hot topic, various mobile phone manufacturers in Longguo finally found opportunities.
……
LeTV Company Headquarters.
Conference room.
“The Snapdragon 810 processor has been announced, and the negotiation team will go to talk immediately. We must get the supply order for me as soon as possible!”
“The R&D department will immediately start a project, and LeTV’s new flagship will be a game Give me the mobile phone, heat dissipation and performance!”
Mr. Jia spoke with great momentum, as if he had found an outlet.
Watching Longxing Technology making money during this period, he was extremely jealous. If it weren't for his lack of strength, he would have ended up fighting for a share.
The other side.
Rice Company Headquarters.
Rebus also sensed business opportunities and urgently set up a project to build a high-performance flagship. It also needed to increase investment in heat dissipation and performance.
CEOs of mobile phone manufacturers such as Hammer, Lianxiang, Coolpad, and Blue and Green Factory have all sensed business opportunities and started new flagship projects, preparing to make money.
Every mobile phone manufacturer is like a jackal, a tiger or a leopard, all eyeing prospective college students.
But the bosses are not stupid either. Who can beat Longxing Technology in the price war?
They have to pay patent fees to use 4G baseband chips. Chen Xing does not have patent fees to use Kaitian baseband chips, so they can only use their strengths and avoid weaknesses and start establishing projects in the mobile phone segment.
The subdivision of mobile phones is simply a clearer official identification of mobile phone use. For example, gaming phones, what do users value?
Without a doubt.
Cooling and gaming performance!
Mobile phone manufacturers will cut budgets elsewhere to cover the costs of processor chips and cooling systems as much as possible.
Because gaming phones are just for playing games. What you need is heat dissipation and performance, and other functions can be used.
Another example is camera phones.
It is positioned for taking pictures, do users need to use the Snapdragon 810 processor?
The answer is that it can be used, but not much, which is equivalent to excess performance!
If the budget for purchasing the Snapdragon 810 processor is used to fill the lens, wouldn’t it be more palatable to this type of user to focus on pixel improvements?
The path that manufacturer CEOs want to take, Gaotong CEO Mollenkopf has already thought of it for them, so he announced four processor chips with different needs at once.
Do you want gaming performance?
20nm, 4+4 octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor meets your needs!
You want to take a photo?
The Snapdragon 615 processor is the best choice!
Do you want a cheap backup machine?
Snapdragon 410 and 210 processors are born for the sinking market!
Originally, the bosses of mobile phone manufacturers still wanted to sit back and watch the tigers fight during the summer vacation. However, Gaotong Company issued an "airdrop". How could they let go of this opportunity?
For businessmen, profit comes first!
……
Longxing Technology Company.
Originally, Chen Xing was still inspecting R&D work in SEG Technology Park, but a call from his secretary forced him to rush back to the company.
Conference room.
Shareholders have arrived early.
After Chen Xing sat down, a shareholder immediately revealed the inside information:
“Mr. Young, according to reliable information from other companies, Rice, Coolpad, Hammer, Lianxiang, etc. Manufacturers have already initiated mobile phone projects and are preparing to design mobile phones in segmented fields.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the next shareholder immediately took over: "Mr. Young Master, Gaotong Company has released the purchase restriction lists of Kunpeng Company and Meilan Company, but we are the only ones who are still on the purchase restriction list of Gaotong Company. , This time it seems to be coming for us!”
“Mr. Young, among the four Snapdragon processors announced by Gaotong, the Snapdragon 810 processor is a 20nm process chip, and other manufacturers are likely to We will launch a mobile phone focusing on the gaming field to address our shortcomings in gaming performance!”
“Mr. Shao, with the Snapdragon 810 processor, Gaotong’s reputation is gradually picking up on the Internet, and the MediaTek MT6592 processor is Being labeled as a fake eight-core company, we were also slightly implicated.”
Various news came one after another. Chen Xing’s expression remained the same as before. There was no trace of panic on his face, but his eyes were more solemn. .
The release of four processor chips at once, including a 20-nanometer Snapdragon 810 processor, has also lifted the chip purchase restrictions of Kunpeng Company and Meilan Company. This clearly means that other mobile phones Manufacturers end up competing with Longxing Technology for market share.
Currently, the shortcoming of the Longxing X1 mobile phone is the processor chip.
The MediaTek MT6592 processor it uses is not only a fake eight-core, but the manufacturing process is only 28 nanometers.
The chip nanometer refers to the gate width of the silicon wafer, the smallest unit of the chip. The smaller the number of nanometers, the higher the technology, the more advanced it is, and the more difficult it is to manufacture.
If you compare chips to factories, then in a factory of the same area, whoever can accommodate more workers and equipment will naturally have higher production capacity. This is why the chip field is pursuing small nanometers.
When the mobile phone market was surging with undercurrents and various manufacturers were actively "preparing for war," far away at the MediaTek headquarters on Longguo Island, Gaotong CEO Molenkov met with MediaTek CEO Cai Mingjie, and the two successfully reached a consensus.
Before leaving, Mollenkopf, who was wearing a custom-made slim suit and had an elegant temperament, stretched out his right hand and said with a faint smile:
"I hope we can have a happy cooperation. You and I share the DSP multi-core architecture technology."
