Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 944 Backstab

Spreadtrum was targeted, and the possibility of a comeback is extremely low when this matter comes to fruition. Targeting activities in other areas have basically stopped. I don’t know whether it is luck or misfortune. The United States is mainly targeting the semiconductor industry.

In order to eliminate Spreadtrum, Honor's purchase of Spreadtrum's chips must be approved by the United States. Otherwise, Honor products will not be sold in the United States. What’s even more unfortunate is that neither TSMC nor Samsung will be able to manufacture for Spreadtrum in the future.

Of course, this does not affect the current order delivery, and it will also gain a certain amount of grace time so that TSMC can produce more chips for them. This is also what Juhua has experienced. TSMC and Spreadtrum have both made preparations.

Qu Li will not sit back and watch Spreadtrum being targeted and speak on social media. Unfortunately, his identity determines his stance, which is not very convincing in North America. Honor Spreadtrum is still fighting to see if one of Spreadtrum and Wizhihou can be excluded after the split.

Spreadtrum has 5G baseband, Weishi does not, and Honor is not like Chrysanthemum. The U.S. government will attack the two companies differently. Many matters regarding Honor can be discussed. Many American politicians do not need to avoid dealings with Honor. It is their "national policy" to crack down on the domestic semiconductor industry.

Weizhi is engaged in automotive and data center chips, and it faces many competitors. Qualcomm, Nvidia, and Tesla are also doing self-research. Guge, Amazon, and Ali are all doing self-research. They are also the world's largest open source chip architecture RISC- Main supporter of V. Under the Bitcoin offensive, Honor’s team in the United States is confident of convincing some people.

They did not give away Bitcoins directly, but Qianqianqing sold the Bitcoins to an organization, Honor bought them back, and then donated them to a charity, which increased the activity of the Bitcoin market. Everything was done under the sun, which was reasonable and reasonable. legitimate.

Fortunately, Qu Li tightened the confidentiality when he was in Beijin. I didn't know that he had actually focused his chip design on improving computing power. Americans may have misjudged this, thinking that the importance of being unwise is not high. On the other hand, before the United States noticed, Qu Li spread out and purchased Nvidia's A100 chips in large quantities, such as through China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, and Germany, making sure to get more products before the United States noticed. He is a major shareholder of Nvidia. Although he has not joined the board of directors, he used this opportunity to make friends with Lao Huang to facilitate the purchase of chips, which is not illegal.

In addition, Qu Li also needs to speed up the design of their high-power computing chips and let TSMC and Samsung take over the production. This is very difficult because the United States has asked them to provide production plans and other business secrets, denying them the opportunity to secretly represent Chinese companies. work.

There are many things to deal with. There is Lei Jun in Beijin. His ability to withstand pressure is stronger than that of Qu Li. He can support Glory, Lu Qi and Lin Bing, who have spent time together. Although they are a little worse, as an Internet company company, the risk is much lower.

Qu Li flew to Magic City as if putting out a fire. This is the center of the domestic integrated electronics industry and the registration place of Spreadtrum. Later, the company's headquarters moved to Beijin, but there is still a chip design team here second only to Beijin.

Chip design and manufacturing are integrated. They have been preparing for this for a long time. It is impossible to make wedding clothes for others. SMIC's production capacity must be controlled in its hands. In addition, it must increase its efforts to purchase EUV and DUV lithography machines.

For example, they pretended to want to jointly build a 7nm factory with SMIC. Regardless of whether it can be done, the appearance needs to be fake. After Honor’s stock price plummeted from 300 billion to about 200 billion US dollars after entering the entity list, the outside world is watching them. Performance.

First of all, they must communicate with Qualcomm. Chip price increases are inevitable, but as long-term partners, they have always had a tacit understanding. This time they won, and there will be no big problems with subsequent cooperation.

The other is Google Android. Honor is eroding the Android ecosystem from the bottom up. This time Honor will set up a system optimization and adaptation department in North America. All mobile phones from operators can only use Android systems and cannot have the self-developed Kunlun underlying system. Are you going to go over there to please others after being turned around, and are you going to create more jobs for American daddy?

Honor just wants to make money. They make money globally to support domestic businesses, and the Kunlun system becomes further independent.

Juhua’s various tricks are flying all over the world, and they have divided the Hongmeng system into three or four versions and promoted it with the same name. In fact, the Hongmeng mobile phone has not been open source, but various propaganda words seem to be open source. In fact, if you go to the official website of the open source Hongmeng, you will know that there is no system code adapted to the mobile phone.

A brand's high-end and high premium needs something to support it. Consumer electronics products are generally user experience upgrades and differentiated experiences brought about by technological progress. Apple iPhone and Sony are clear representatives; cars are different, technology is not the only one, BBA The quality of luxury goods is not as good as that of Ferrari, Porsche, and Rolls-Royce; luxury goods are even worse. Even the quality of the products does not need to be guaranteed, and they can only be worn once...

Qu Li doesn’t want Honor to have to rely on selling feelings to deceive consumers and then demonize cost-effectiveness. Even though he knows that cost-effective companies are difficult to grow and companies cannot develop without making money, but considering the billions of people in the country, the complex market environment is peaceful. In the face of wealth disparity, it is a good idea to provide "technological equality" products for most low- and middle-income groups.

Honor Kunlun has now become the Fanxing Kunlun system, which is all open source, including the mobile phone system. This year, we plan to rewrite part of the code in Rust, and then gradually expand it to all the code, including the car system. Stability, smoothness and safety have the greatest priority, and then It is multi-functional. As a rough system, it is easy to use but has a lot of minor problems.

Honor has maintained a sales volume of 250 million units and a net profit of about US$25 billion over the years. If other income is not taken into account, it is equivalent to a mobile phone making a net profit of US$100. Of course, this is impossible. Tablets and computers, no one Mobile phones and smart wearable devices all have a lot of profits, but they invest a lot in power batteries, new energy vehicles, semiconductor design and manufacturing, and the purchase of exclusive production tools.

Now the Kunlun system is open to domestic companies for free, and there are many participants. They obviously believe in Honor and Quli more. But without the differentiated advantages of chips and systems, how can Honor maintain its high-end positioning? Could it be that those who are patriotic and don’t kneel are far ahead?

But of the two companies in the same situation, one was caught, and Glory obviously suffered an unreasonable disaster, was implicated, or was a victim of the confrontation between the two countries.

Just as Qu Li was busy sorting through the complicated clues and knowing what to do next, things took a new turn: against the background of the global new energy vehicle market having a promising future, Tesla's virtual The high stock price was questioned, and many investors in the United States began to short-sell. At this time, Apple suddenly announced that it would acquire Fisker for about US$10 billion, and the second son of the actual controller, the Li family of Xiangjiang, agreed.

When he learned the news, Qu Li had just tortured Sister Chaoyue until her whole body went limp. She didn't react for a long time. This damn businessman cursed a few words bitterly.

"What's wrong?" Chaoyue's sister is crystal clear and red as snow.

"Future Futures supported a new energy car company in the United States and suffered a backstab." He didn't lose any money, but made some money. If it weren't for Apple, being acquired by other companies wouldn't be a problem, but Xiangjiang Li Er didn't inform him in advance. Very!

"What should we do?" the other end of the phone urged.

"I remember there was a lawsuit. Qiange Geometry was displayed and sold in the Honor flagship store, and it was suspected of unfair competition. The media paid attention to the lawsuit, and the lawyer revealed that we were prepared to plead guilty in order to reduce the punishment..."

"..." The other person on the phone didn't respond for a moment, and it took a while before he said, "Wonderful."

How to sell Fisker if Apple acquires it? Is it the Apple brand or the Fisker brand?

If they sell Apple cars, they cannot surpass Geometry and Tesla in terms of performance and user experience, including smart driving. This would be equivalent to actively lowering the Apple brand to the same level as Honor and Geometry. Then the iPhone brand and Honor mobile phones will Sales are difficult to control! If you sell the Fisker brand, how do you check out the channels, how do you build a charging network, and should you open a self-operated store or rely on Apple's existing channels?

Qu Li is hurting the enemy by one thousand and losing five hundred by himself. What future is there for him to have the strength to establish his own business!
