Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology - Chapter 723
The efficiency of Changtian Technology is very high.
After the establishment of Pascal’s company, it is expected that the plant will be built soon.
Since the factory building is a steel-structured building, and Xia Guo’s employees came to construct it, if the land problem is solved, the construction period will only be less than a month.
The related production equipment was also provided by Changtian Technology and shipped directly from Xiaguo.
As soon as the end of March and the beginning of April, Pascal will be able to produce related hardware products.
All finished products after production will be sold under the name of Pascal Company.
Both Changtian Technology and Commoner are quite low-key.
But in the entire mobile phone industry, this thing still spread out.
When the headquarters of htc heard the news, they were quite surprised, and of course they were also amazed.
If htc buys Pascal’s carbon crystal storage or carbon crystal memory, it can perfectly avoid the regulatory risks in the US market.
The main market of htc is indeed in the United States, but with the economic development of Xiaguo and its layout in Europe during this period.
European and Asian markets. Sales have begun to slowly catch up with the United States, becoming one of the most important markets for htc.
France is a member of the European Union.
The Pascal Company is a French company.
If htc uses Pascal’s hardware, the headquarters may be boycotted by the European market, right?
Want to understand this.
Htc’s headquarters immediately formulated two sets of measures.
The first set of measures is to continue to purchase hardware from Changtian Technology.
If one day a mobile phone equipped with Changtian Technology hardware cannot be sold in the US market.
Then htc will immediately order from Pascal, and sell the hardware equipped with Pascal to the United States and Europe.
This is also a curve to save the market.
Even if the United States still does not allow carbon crystal memory and carbon crystal hard drives to enter the market, at least the European market is preserved.
Then htc will take the second measure at this time.
Phones sold in the U.S. will come with Samsung or other brands of memory and storage.
Mobile phones in Europe and Asia will continue to be equipped with carbon crystal memory and carbon crystal storage.
That is, by whatever means.
htc can at least keep the Asian and European markets.
As for the U.S. market, if it loses, there is no way out.
Want to understand this,
htc immediately dispatched a team to France to find the newly established Pascal company to order 100,000 pieces of hardware.
People are accustomed to eating delicacies of mountains and seas, so it is difficult to swallow kimchi and cold rice.
It is absolutely impossible for consumers to use some outdated products after they have used a very powerful product.
There is also Apple who holds the same idea.
In fact, Apple was very anxious during this time.
Because in less than two weeks, Apple will release a new generation of mobile phones,
iphone
4s.
iphone
4s has made significant progress in both the chip (Samsung is not willing to lose a partner like Apple and the opportunity to make money, so it still assists Apple to complete the production of the a5 chip) or the screen.
The only thing that has not been determined is whether to use Changtian Technology’s carbon crystal memory and carbon crystal storage.
That’s it, Jobs learned that Pascal was established, and like htc, he immediately dispatched a team to France to order a large number of Pascal’s semiconductor products.
Of course all this is the same as htc, in secret.
For its own benefit, Apple will never disclose the relevant situation to Wall Street’s capital (except for the capital behind itself).
The interests of American capital are intricate.
The purpose of most capital is to make money.
If Changtian Technology can make him make money, such as idg, they are of course willing to cooperate with Changtian Technology.
If Longsky Technology prevents them from making money, like Goldman Sachs and Morgan.
Of course, these capitals will take measures to prohibit Changtian Technology from participating in industries that compete with them.
The game between capital is always on.
Capital in this world has never been black and white in a pure sense.
This is also why, on the one hand, the politicians of the United States are fragrant, and they have to scold Xia Guo in public or in private.
On the other hand, the companies behind these political kees, or the capital, are unwilling to give up the rapidly developing market of Xia Guo, the fundamental reason for frantically investing in Xia Guo.
Chen Xiao also cleverly took advantage of the complexity of capital and exploited the loopholes of capitalism.
This is the funniest and most surprising scene in the history of semiconductor companies.
When a company’s factory is still under construction, the number of orders has already been lined up a year later.
However, this news also made Pascal’s parent company, Pascal, very excited.
This proves that there is nothing wrong with the cooperation between them and Changtian Technology.
And at the Apple conference a week later.
Wearing a black t-shirt and jeans, Steve Jobs stood on the stage and announced the revolutionary mobile phone product iphone4s.
Jobs just announced the iphone4s chip screen and other parameters, as well as suppliers.
When talking about memory and storage, Jobs only mentioned the relevant size parameters, neither the supplier nor the read and write speed.
The purpose of this is also to downplay the fact that Apple purchases Changtian Technology hardware.
But in the mobile phone industry, after all, there will be many professionals.
As soon as they saw Apple’s memory and stored data, they knew that Apple would still purchase Changtian Technology’s hardware.
No other company can produce this parameter.
But at the press conference.
Attentive reporters noticed a scene unrelated to mobile phone products.
That’s the mental state of Jobs.
Although the scene was lit, and Jobs was dressed in a very spirited manner.
But there was no way to hide Jobs’ poor mental state.
There are many pauses when he speaks, and the rate of breathing is much faster than when the iPhone 4 was released last year.
In addition, his body will be a little rickety, as if people are not comfortable.
After the press conference, crazy Apple fans were eagerly waiting for the phone to be available for sale as soon as possible.
And reporters were concerned about Jobs’ health.
A few years ago, it was revealed that Jobs had cancer and had been fighting cancer for so many years.
Xia Guo, Chang Zezhou Changtian Technology Headquarters.
Wang Xiang has just returned from France.
The first time he went to Chen Xiao’s office to report his work in France.
In fact, Wang Xiang has a lot of confusion.
he moves
Holding a cup in his hand, he poured a little water, and after taking two sips, he said:
“Mr. Chen, I just watched the news of Apple’s iphone4s conference.”
“At the press conference, Apple did not explicitly point out that it would purchase our hardware products.”
“On the parameter remarks of memory and storage, others are also written in parentheses.”
“That is, Apple is likely to abandon our products and continue to purchase Samsung or other brands.”
“And we’re not getting any more orders from Apple at the moment.”
“Assumption! I mean hypothetical!”
Wang Xiang said anxiously: “Assuming that Apple or htc uses Changtian Technology’s hardware, they encounter trouble and need to purchase Pascal’s hardware instead.”
“At present, Pascal’s factories are still under construction, and the equipment has not been pulled in. Even if the order is finally accepted, it is very likely that it will be too late.”
Chen Xiao also thought about this issue at the beginning.
Chen Xiao smiled and said to Wang Xiang, “Pascal’s production of carbon crystal memory and carbon crystal storage does not start from raw materials, but we send the corresponding accessories here, and the factory over there starts assembly directly.”
“So when I started this company, I left a hole to take advantage of.”
“The accessories we have sent in the past can be carbon crystal particles, control chips and housings, or complete carbon crystal storage boxes.”
“A large quantity is enough!”
When Chen Xiao finished saying this with a smile, Wang Xiang suddenly realized. m..
From start to finish, Pascal was just a pretense.
If Pascal’s conditions are ripe, of course, it can have its own factory, its own production line, and its own workers.
Carbon crystal storage can be produced.
However, if Pascal’s conditions are not mature, it can become a leather bag company and directly sell Changtian Technology’s hardware products.
Since it is a leather bag company, its main task is not production but OEM.
After realizing this, Wang Xiang couldn’t help giving Chen Xiao a thumbs up.
Although Chen Xiao is a research-oriented businessman.
But when it comes to stealing and cheating in the mall, he is no worse than those old foxes on Wall Street.
Wang Xiang raised his second question.
“The dividend ratio between us and France is 46, which is actually close to 55, but France doesn’t do anything. Is this ratio higher?”
After all, carbon crystal products have huge profits.
On the surface, it seems that France is actually just giving a sales channel, but it has to take four layers of profits.
This made Wang Xiang feel a little uncomfortable.
Not just Wang Xiang.
Many Changtian Technology employees also have questions about this.
The employees of Changtian Technology are quite proud.
Because of their hard work, Changtian Technology has achieved its current status.
Thinking of the French partners, they can get huge profits just by giving them a sales channel or making a OEM.
It makes people feel very uncomfortable about this matter.
Chen Xiao said to Wang Xiang: “Some things can’t be seen with money.”
“Pascal was really a leather bag company before it built capacity, but it helps us to ease the external environment.”
“And achieve a monopoly on mobile phone hardware.”
“This will play a vital role in the entry of Changtian Technology’s greater products into the global market in the future.”
“We are just using hardware to open up the global market, so that consumers around the world know that there is a brand like Changtian Technology.”
“We sacrifice a little profit at this time, which has no impact on our overall development.”
“Assume that our Hanhai mobile phone, or other more heavyweight products, wants to go to the global market.”
“If we use these products to make trial and error, the time cost will be very large.”
This is the era of globalization.
Whether it is a country or a company, it is absolutely impossible to rest on its laurels.
In the classroom, whenever history teachers talk about the dark history of the Xia Kingdom in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, they always use a word—closed country.
This term still applies today.
Changtian Technology wants to achieve greater results.
It is impossible to know that he is locked in the Xia Kingdom’s market.
“When we achieve this goal, we must give our partners enough benefits.”
“Compared to our goals, 40% of the profit is quite impressive.”
Chen Xiao joked: “This is better than Wall Street asking us for a 40% stake in the group!”
When Chen Xiao said this, Wang Xiang couldn’t help but be amused.
Chen Xiao suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, “Actually, in our contract with France, I also left a back door.”
“I just said that it is absolutely impossible for Pascal Company to start producing carbon crystal storage from the most basic raw materials. It can only import related materials from Changtian Technology in the mainland of Xia for assembly.”
“The most important raw material for carbon crystal storage is silicon carbide crystal, and it is a silicon carbide crystal with a barrier.”
“Only Changtian Technology can produce this kind of raw material in the world.”
“Since we are a monopoly business, of course, we have the final say on the price.”
“So we can control Pascal’s actual profits by controlling the price of raw materials.”
“Although our contract is 46%, but through the control of raw material prices, the profit ratio can reach 37, or 28.”
“Of course, as a responsible company, we cannot let our partners suffer too much.”
“After all, if there is no profit, who will do it? It is impossible to use love to generate electricity.”
After Chen Xiao said this, he spread his hands, and Wang Xiang realized that all his worries seemed to be unnecessary.
Wang Xiang said: “It depends on the reaction of the US market.”
“If the U.S. market is determined to reject Changtian Technology’s hardware, then we have to give up the U.S. market temporarily.”
Wang Xiang added: “Now there is another variable that is Jobs’ body.”
“It is rumored that Steve Jobs is already in the late stage of cancer. This time the launch of the iPhone 4s, Steve Jobs is obviously unable to do what he wants.”
Speaking of Jobs’ body~www.mtlnovel.com~ Chen Xiao also frowned.
He was born again, if the world he was in wasn’t much different from the parallel world he was in before.
Jobs’ death date should be in October of this year, which is October of 2011.
Jobs is a tech madman, and he has contempt for capital.
If Cook takes office, no one can say exactly what the situation will be.
The two fell into deep thought.
At this time, the bell of Chen Xiao’s office rang rapidly.
It was Qu Ping who called.
“What’s wrong with Qu Ping?”
“Master, please come to the laboratory! Important thing!”_&
