Chapter 182 Conversation with Musk (5K)
Not only digital bloggers are queuing up to visit the Extraordinary Masters on Huawei’s official website, foreign technology giants also need to rush to buy, but their methods are more crude, directly to Greater China The district allocates a budget and then lets them buy goods from Xianyu without thinking.
Even though the US dollar has depreciated now, the US dollar against RMB has dropped to less than 7, which is still a small amount of money.
Digital bloggers want to buy, foreign technology giants want to snap up, domestic mobile phone manufacturers also want to buy for research, 20,000 units a day is simply not enough.
“I finally got it. Do you know how much the price of the Huawei Master I have increased? It’s a full 30,000 yuan, which has doubled. I watched helplessly as I transferred the order to the Master on Xianyu. The price soared from 40,000 to 60,000. I was afraid that it would continue to rise, so I placed an order decisively
Today, the SF Express guy delivered something to me. On the way to pick it up, I took a look at the price on Xianyu. The price has now reached 80,000 yuan. Is this the appeal of domestic chips? It's simply too exaggerated.
Although I am not the first one in the digital area to unbox and review it, I am still among the first batch. I hope that the friends in front of the screen can give me three consecutive clicks to restore health. It is really hard to bear the cost of paying for it out of my own pocket.
Let’s unbox it first as usual. It has the same black and red box as the previous generation of Extraordinary Master. The appearance of the phone is also the same as that of the previous generation. It adopts the Porsche design language and will be thinner than the previous generation. .
According to the parameters on Huawei's official website, it is because they used a thinner battery, which reduced the weight of the phone by 13 grams and reduced the battery capacity by a full 500 mAh.
According to the explanation given by Huawei bloggers on the Internet, the reason for reducing the battery capacity is because chips based on topological semi-metal have better energy consumption performance, so even if there is only a 4500 mAh battery capacity, its battery life is still 20% longer than the previous generation of Extraordinary Master.
Therefore, Huawei considered the feel and cut off the battery capacity in exchange for a better grip.
Now that the weight has been reduced to 230 grams, it does feel better than the previous generation.
As for whether the sacrifice of battery life in exchange for the feel is worth it, that’s a matter of opinion. At least for me, I think it is worth it, because everyone has long developed the habit of charging regularly every day.
Not to mention that compared with the previous generation, it has increased battery life, not reduced battery life. ”
The blogger talked a lot, from appearance design language to camera effects, etc., in order to increase the completion rate of the video as much as possible, so he will put the most important things last.< br>
"I think the biggest difference among this generation of extraordinary masters is their confidence. Previously, Huawei needed to create some awesome terms for its technology to create a sense of high-end for everyone and make customers willing to pay for it.< br>
Including asking Liu Tianwang to be an endorsement is an extension of this method
In fact, in my opinion, this is a lack of confidence, because in the past, Huawei's extraordinary master customer base. , to put it bluntly, he buys your mobile phone because you are Huawei, and buying Huawei is to support domestic production. This concept is gone.
The technologies you promote have no meaning at all to these target customers. < br>
Users who pursue cost-effectiveness or high technology are not willing to pay a high premium to buy Huawei. After all, Extraordinary Master is more expensive than Apple. These users are not willing to pay for these technologies.
This generation is completely different. Ark 100, a chip equivalent to 1 nanometer, uses revolutionary topological semi-metal as raw material. It is a unique technology of China. Currently, only Huawei can do it among global mobile phone manufacturers.
Such an awesome product, such a powerful technological breakthrough, a chip launch conference was held, and half a year later the mobile phone was launched quietly, without even having a more powerful name. Before the change , at least it has to be called Suzaku Metal or something like that: use Suzaku Metal to build Ark chips.
Let’s run a score again, compare it with the mobile phone score results of Youshang, and then shout out the iconic slogan to be far ahead. This is the familiar taste.
This may not seem like Huawei’s style, but I think this is Huawei’s style.
Because there is no need to introduce anything more, 1nm and topological semi-metal have explained everything, and this is the selling point.
This is also the first time that a domestic mobile phone has taken the lead in technology. In the past, we always watched Cook squeeze out toothpaste at press conferences. He spent a lot of time talking about how powerful Apple’s M chip is, how much its computing power and performance have improved compared to before, and the use of Brand new craftsmanship.
Domestic manufacturers can only follow Apple and use Qualcomm's chips to catch up. However, even Qualcomm's chips are later than Apple in terms of technology.
1nm TSMC said that it is optimistic that it will be built in 2030. Unfortunately, Chinese manufacturers will build it in 2024 and have officially launched it on the market.
Apple squeezed out toothpaste and ran scores again at the press conference. China has a topological semi-metal chip. Do you have it?
Subsequent consumers will buy Huawei Master Extraordinaire for the unique experience of 1nm chips. After the 1nm topological semi-metal chips are deployed on domestic mobile phones priced at 5,000 yuan, Apple will no longer have a presence in China. market.
I dare to draw a conclusion here. After Xiaomi’s digital series is equipped with topological semi-metal chips, Apple will quietly disappear from the Chinese market like Samsung.
Okay, I’m so excited. Let’s take a look at its game performance. With the release of this generation of Extraordinary Masters, domestic mainstream game manufacturers such as MiHoYo, Goose Factory, and Pig Factory have all announced their own games. The special adaptation for the Extraordinary Master is said to be in order to maximize the performance of the Extraordinary Master as much as possible.
Take Honor of Kings owned by Tianmei Studio as an example. Previously, the highest frame rate of Honor of Kings was 120HZ, and only a few mobile phones could adapt to such a high frame rate.
The frame rate of Honor of Kings downloaded from the Extraordinary Master App Store can reach 240Hz. Similarly, the highest frame rate of several other mainstream mobile games under Extraordinary Master has reached 240Hz."
Game Frame The rate means the number of frames that the game picture is transmitted in one second, which can also be understood as the number of times the graphics is refreshed
“We can see that among the most popular games at the moment, Genshin Impact and Honor of Kings have performed well, at least compared to the previous generation mate60, the progress is too obvious. It is like going directly from the earth to Mars.
The most obvious are two points. The first point is naturally the frame rate. Needless to say, the 240Hz frame rate allows users to have smoother and more realistic animation effects. The second point is temperature and power control.
The previous generation mate60 did not perform well in terms of temperature. After playing for 20 minutes, the temperature of the phone skyrocketed and quickly exceeded 40 degrees. At that time, I remember that the barrage was ridiculed with the word "fire dragon".
< br>And Huawei’s supporters also laughed at themselves, saying that Huawei users don’t play games.
As for this generation of extraordinary masters, I can responsibly say that after playing Honor of Kings for an hour, the temperature will rise by up to two degrees. , almost negligible, I would even think it was the temperature of my palms rising due to the stress of playing games
What’s even more shocking is the power consumption. I asked our studio’s favorite gamer to turn it on to the highest frame rate and play from morning to night, and its ultimate battery life was up to 11 hours.
You must know that the previous generation mate60 can only last 8 hours at a frame rate of 60, but Master Extraordinary can actually last 11 hours at a frame rate of 240Hz.
Be aware that its battery capacity is 500 mAh less.
This is completely a change brought about by a new material called topological semimetal, because Kirin chips were not good at temperature control in the past.
Just from the perspective of gaming, I have a hunch that as more and more mobile phones are equipped with topological semi-metal chips, Apple will not only lose the Chinese market, but also their overseas markets. "Guarantee"
Since the Digimon in China can make such a judgment, the elites on Wall Street are no exception.
Since the launch of Extraordinary Master, Apple’s stock price has started to fall. When various review videos of Extraordinary Master began to circulate and specific parameters appeared in various media, Apple’s stock price continued to fall.
After originally falling by US$400 billion from the high of US$3 trillion, in just one week, the market value has dropped from US$2.6 trillion to US$2 trillion, and it is obvious to the naked eye that the decline cannot be stopped. .
So much so that the technology media in Silicon Valley are wailing that we should negotiate with China to introduce topological semi-metal chips.
Otherwise Apple will lose the global market and Chinese smartphones will take the world by storm.
Different from cars, Huaguo’s new energy vehicles still need to build their own reputation when going overseas. Huaguo’s smartphones have established a reputation around the world in the past ten years. Huaguo’s smartphones have never been synonymous with low-end and copycats. And it is linked to the sense of science and technology and the rise of China's industry.
Just as Deutsche and Neon cars have taken the global market by storm, no one cares that the previous Deutsche and Neon companies started off as copycats.
Therefore, in Americen Media’s prediction, Chinese smartphones have a brand and a user base. With breakthroughs in chip technology, neither Apple nor Samsung can hold on to their past market.
Taking into account the cost and production capacity factors of topological semi-metal chips, Apple may lose the market even faster.
In Silicon Valley, Huawei’s extraordinary masters have become the new target of pursuit. No one wants to buy a smartphone equipped with a topological semi-metal chip.
"Thanks to the boss of China, the latest Huawei mobile phone, its performance shocked me." Musk, who flew to Yanjing to meet the boss, specially posted a Weibo post after receiving the return gift from Huawei's extraordinary master.
Then he posted another message: "I am considering using China's topological semi-metal technology to launch a Tesla mobile phone. I am preparing to mention my idea to Wright Chen when I meet him. I Thought this would be a good idea." This tweet gave Apple's already plummeting stock price another blow, and it plummeted again the next morning.
Because everyone knows the relationship between China and America, Chinese smartphones will definitely not be able to enter the federal market, which means that the world’s most powerful consumer The country will be Apple’s base.
But if Tesla starts making mobile phones equipped with Chinese technology, Apple will also face the risk of losing its position in its home base.
As for whether Musk can do this, after the completion of the Tesla Shenhai Super Factory, no one will doubt his relationship with China.
Especially when Chinese smartphones cannot enter the American market, and Chinese mobile phone chips hope to enter the American market, China will not give up this piece of cake, what Washington thinks .
“After learning more about the excellent performance of topological semi-metal, I think electric vehicles are the best place for it to play a role.”
“If the next generation Tesla can be equipped with topological Semi-metallic chips, I think we can achieve L4 level autonomous driving, and we can even put large autonomous driving models directly into cars through topological semi-metallic chips.” Two things, batteries and chips.”
"Tesla will promote the cooperation between AMD and Guangjia Technology, and we will work together to build the most powerful smart car in history."
Earlier, Musk said that Tesla would build mobile phones, and Tesla's stock price only rose slightly. , and after the news came out that topological semi-metals would be used in automotive chips, Tesla's stock price rose sharply, reversing its past decline.
Although this was just what he said he wanted to do, the capital market responded enthusiastically.
So much so that Chen Yuanguang saw from the news that he was going to cooperate with Musk: "Did Musk find Guangjia Technology?"
Lin Jia was by Chen Yuanguang's side at this time. She had recently She flies to Mianyang almost every week. In order to meet such frequent travel, she has begun to look at some private jets.
After hearing his question, Lin Jia shook his head and said: "No, according to my information, after he came to Yanjing, he immediately went to Shenhai to inspect the Tesla Gigafactory.
No executive responded, If Musk wants to talk to me, and if he wants to talk about topological semi-metal cooperation, he should talk to Frontier Technology.
The patent and production of this technology are not under the name of Light Armor Technology or Light Armor Aerospace. .”
Chen Yuanguang was speechless about Musk’s behavior.
When Musk was at Shenhai, he asked the officials around him: "Where is Mr. Chen? I am very familiar with him. We have a lot of cooperation in the aerospace field. I hope to chat with him.
Can you help me make an appointment with Mr. Chen? "He knew from Tesla's channels that Tesla could not make an appointment with Chen Yuanguang, so he directly asked the relevant Chinese officials.
"Sorry, Mr. Chen is not in Shenhai at the moment. I'm afraid there is no chance this time. I will follow up with Chen Yuanguang. If sir is free, we will make arrangements. "
Musk nodded thoughtfully. He did not want to give up and said: "I am willing to fly to see him wherever he is. In order to see Wright, I am willing to accept the strictest security measures. ”
Musk said what he heard from Tesla’s Greater China executives about the current difficulties in meeting Chen Yuanguang and gave him a solution.
Tesla Executives and Musk said that China was afraid that Chen Yuanguang would be assassinated, so he deliberately placed him in a city where China has greater control, rather than an international city like Shenhai.
Sure enough, after Musk took the initiative to mention that he was willing to undergo security inspection, the official's face looked better and said, "Let me ask Mr. Wright for you."
Chen Yuanguang is obviously also very interested in Musk. To be precise, Being in Mianyang was so boring that he felt like he could chat with anyone who came.
After obtaining Chen Yuanguang’s permission, Musk met Chen Yuanguang in Mianyang the next afternoon.
"Wright, long time no see." Musk went up and gave him a hug. The Chinese security guards around him knew that he had no weapons, so they did not stop him.
Tesla executives were taking pictures silently.
Tesla's stock price rose by 12 points just because of the news of cooperation. If these photos were spread, Tesla's stock price would not rise so high.
Tesla executives holding options are very realistic.
"Okay." Chen Yuanguang also guessed the other party's intention. Whether he could cooperate or not, the only way to boost the stock price was to boost the stock price.
He was not in prison in Mianyang, but he could still see the news. He knew the vague relationship between Tesla's stock price surge and him.
“Wright, your perovskite battery technology has helped our Cybertruck achieve unprecedented success globally. The Cybertruck equipped with perovskite battery technology is also known as the most successful New energy vehicles.
To thank you, I originally planned to give you a Cybertruck pickup truck. Considering that the Cybertruck pickup truck cannot be driven on the road in China, I wanted to replace it with the latest model S.
Tom, please remember it. "
Chen Yuanguang thought to himself, I haven't even driven Xiaomi ultra, let alone Tesla.
"Okay, okay. "
Musk continued: "We are similar in many places, so I have long known that we will become friends. I have often followed the trends of light armor aerospace in Silicon Valley.
Their extraordinary strength in recyclable rockets has put a lot of pressure on SpaceX. ”
Musk himself indeed thinks so. You must know that Bezos’ Blue Origin snatched orders from SpaceX, but he cursed on Twitter and treated Bezos with all his ridicule.
Guangma Aerospace does the same thing, and is also grabbing orders from SpaceX around the world, including Europe and South America. Compared with Blue Origin, Guangma Aerospace, which turned to SpaceX to complete the launch mission in the initial stage, undoubtedly has More points to complain about. However, Musk said nothing on social media.
After the successful launch of Trailblazer 2, he also sent a tweet to express his congratulations.
< br>In Musk’s philosophy of doing things, this is already the greatest show of kindness.
"Elon, you are right, Trailblazer 2 is more advanced than Falcon 9, but that doesn't satisfy me because Falcon 9 is technology from ten years ago, while Trailblazer 2 is our technology The latest achievements.
If we can’t even compare to SpaceX’s latest achievements, then we’d better not talk about going to space mining,” Chen Yuanguang said.
After speaking, Musk looked like he was amused by Chen Yuanguang’s sense of humor: “Wright, you are right, but in the past ten years, you are the only company that has surpassed SpaceX.
Bei Soth's X, their Blue Origin will only burn money and cause trouble for SpaceX, and will do nothing else.
The attempts of various countries' space agencies on recyclable rockets are still at a very low level. The point.
The only success of Light Armor Aerospace and SpaceX illustrates the similarities between the two of us. We do not follow authority and insist on believing in ourselves. "
"Elon, I also think Starship is a great plan. It can help SpaceX reduce the cost per kilogram from US$4,000 to US$10.
But its engine has fundamental technical problems that cannot be solved.
Using methane and liquid oxygen without restrictions is not a good idea. ”
Seeing Musk flattering himself so much, Chen Yuanguang didn’t mind giving him some advice on why starships have repeatedly failed.
