Don't give me black technology

Chapter 266 Negotiation with Qualcomm

The experience of Deep Space Technology is unknown to consumers and the general public. Only some users of Apple mobile phones have noticed that they can't download a few software on APP and STORE.

Regarding this matter, Nebula Software Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Deep Space Technology Group, immediately issued an announcement, asking users to wait patiently, and is negotiating with Apple.

Nebula Software Technology Co., Ltd. questioned Apple and asked the reason for the removal.Regarding Deep Space Technology's questioning, Apple's response was also vague, saying that it was undergoing a review. As for when the review will be completed, it is not clear.

"This is hooliganism!" Gao Yuan was very angry. After the company's structure adjustment this year, I see that my "APP" has been merged into the newly established Mars Smart Technology Co., Ltd. She is the senior vice president in charge of the mobile application business.

"Don't worry, we don't have many Apple users, so the impact won't be big." Meng Xiaobai comforted.

"But this will still lead to the loss of users." Gao Yuan said, "Huaxia still has a lot of Apple mobile phone users."

"They let our software users lose, and we let their mobile phone users lose!" Meng Xiaobai said coldly, "Within two years, I will make Apple phones become antiques in China!"

"Improve software services?" Qiao Jian asked.

"Yes!" Meng Xiaobai said, "speed up the development of mobile software services and launch more smart software. Let users see that without our software, Apple mobile phones are just bricks, and they will eventually shoot themselves foot!"

"Let's put this question aside for now." Meng Xiaobai said, "The most important thing is the memory and chips."

"Yes!" Pan Yu nodded, "Samsung's memory price increase and Qualcomm's smart chip price increase are the most urgent things we need to solve now!"

"Can we talk to them?" Gao Yuan asked.

"Of course we can talk about it." Pan Yu said, "Their price increase is nothing more than hoping that we will give up more profits. But the core technology is in their mobile phones, no matter how they talk, it is their initiative to control the words."

"I'm not very optimistic about the negotiations. In any case, we have to pay a big price."

"That's not necessarily true." Meng Xiaobai said.

Everyone looked at him with puzzled expressions, and Pan Yu asked, "Mr. Meng, we have no choice but to talk to them."

"Our smart electronic products sell a single performance. Without these two core components, our products are basically useless!"

The reason why Mercury smart home appliances and Mars smartphones are popular in the market is because of their excellent performance, and the core components provided by Samsung and Qualcomm are an essential part to meet performance requirements.

"That's not necessarily the case, we can do it ourselves." Meng Xiaobai said.

"Can we do it?" Pan Yu said in a completely puzzled tone. This is the most advanced technology and has been monopolized by foreign manufacturers.Not to mention them, even those technology companies that have been researching and developing for more than ten years cannot do it.

Meng Xiaobai smiled and said nothing. About five months ago, he obtained Batman Bruce Wayne's semiconductor technology materials and equipment.And he sent these data to the robot "Wang Yuanhang", who is now the technical director of Deep Space Semiconductor.

Under the leadership of Wang Yuanhang, the confidential research and development of Deep Space Semiconductor has been going on for five months!They have achieved some results, and now, except for the researchers and Meng Xiaobai, no one outside knows what they have achieved.

In fact, the current research and development achievements of Deep Space Semiconductor have allowed Deep Space Technology to get rid of the control of foreign manufacturers.It's just that this is an absolute secret, and even Pan Yu, the president of Mars Smart Technology, doesn't know about it.

"Mr. Meng, what exactly is it?" Pan Yu asked curiously. Meng Xiaobai's smile must have a trump card.

"I can't tell you yet." Meng Xiaobai said, "But you can negotiate with Samsung and Qualcomm with confidence."

"Our attitude is very simple, refuse to raise prices! No matter what they threaten, we must firmly refuse! Let's see what else they have to do!"

"Do this..." Pan Yu originally wanted to ask something, but seeing Meng Xiaobai's firm tone, he nodded and said, "Okay. I guess they will definitely not give in."

……

Pan Yu's guess is not wrong, neither Samsung nor Qualcomm backed down.

The Samsung Group stated that the price increase is due to the rise in raw material prices in the international market, and is not aimed at Deep Space Technology.

Qualcomm, on the other hand, didn't even bother to give excuses, and directly sent someone to reply: "This is the price set after careful consideration by the group. If Mars cannot accept it, they will stop supplying subsequent 5G smart chips."

It is unknown who released this news and published it in the media.

"The sales myth of Mars smartphones is about to be terminated? Qualcomm said: If Mars does not accept the price increase, it will stop the supply of 5G smart chips!"

As soon as the news came out, netizens were all shocked.

Du Hu Tieyi: "What do you mean? There will be no chips for Mars smartphones in the future?"

Tick ​​Tick Tick: "The meaning is to increase the price! Mars mobile phones are so expensive now, if the price goes up, I can't afford it at all!"

Xiao Xiaoliang: "Qualcomm made a move, this is a rogue company! It's over, what if the Mars phone doesn't have its own 5G chip?"

Want to eat supper every day: "You can buy Huawei!"

Yue Ting: "Huawei will not sell at all. There is one thing to say, Huawei's mobile phone chips are indeed not as good as Qualcomm."

Wudao: "Hey, the Martian mobile phone has also been sanctioned, cool."

……

On the Internet, there is a sound of bad news.Netizens and the media are predicting that the Mars smartphone will encounter the biggest blow since its inception.

Either compromise Qualcomm or lose the chip, no matter which option you choose, it will be a disaster for Mars mobile phones!
Because of this news, on that day, the stock market, Qualcomm, Apple, Samsung, and even domestic companies such as rice, the stock prices soared, and investors seemed to have seen the scene of the collapse of Mars Technology.

On a news talk show that day, the host and guests mentioned this topic.

The host asked: "Mr. Ma is a well-known entrepreneur and is also very familiar with the Internet and smartphone industries. What do you think of today's news that Deep Space Technology failed to negotiate with Qualcomm?"

Guest Mr. Ma replied: "First of all, I would like to say that our domestic technology companies are still weaker than foreign companies in terms of technological hard power. Let's talk about this chip. If Qualcomm stops providing 5G smart chips for Mars mobile phones, Mars mobile phones will almost disappear. It's not working at all!"

"It can be more serious. Without Qualcomm's G5 smart chip, the Mars mobile phone is useless no matter how good it is! So I think that Deep Space Technology should negotiate with Qualcomm again and make compromises and concessions."

"You mean, the price hikes between Qualcomm and Samsung will definitely affect Deep Space Technology?" the host asked.

"Yes, one hundred percent." The guest nodded.

……

"If they don't agree to the price increase, they will stop our supply?" Although he had already guessed the result, Meng Xiaobai still felt uncomfortable.

He ordered: "Issuing an announcement, the next smart product, whether it is a Mars smartphone or a Mercury smart home appliance, will refuse to use Qualcomm's smart chip. We will launch our own smart chip!"

"It's the same with Samsung. If they still insist on raising prices, we don't need their memory!"

At [-] pm the next day, Deep Space Technology Group issued an announcement: "Due to the failure of negotiations with Samsung Electronics and Qualcomm, our group has decided that subsequent smart electronic products will use smart chips and memories that are completely independently designed and developed. For more information, please contact us. Waiting for follow-up news."

As soon as the news came out, the Internet exploded.

"What? They actually said that?" Dami Technology, Tian Bing never thought that Deep Space Technology would be so tough, "In this way, whose chip can Mars mobile phones use? Is it possible that they really want to make it themselves? Isn't that true?" possible!"

"I expected Qualcomm's restrictions, but I didn't expect Deep Space Technology to be so tough!" Huawei Technology Co., Ltd., Fan Lianfeng shook his head, "So far, they haven't had a chip of their own, so why are they so tough?"

"Probably they are just talking about it." The assistant said, "In a few days, we still have to compromise with Qualcomm."

……

"Hahaha!" Apple, Kuke laughed, "Qualcomm and those people finally did a good thing."

Prior to this, Apple had just finished a lawsuit with Qualcomm, and the two did not deal with each other.But in this matter, they have the same interests.

As for Qualcomm, Paul Jerry was utterly dismissive of Deep Space Technologies' announcement.

"In less than a month, they will compromise. This announcement is just a bluff. Don't pay attention to them."

The Samsung Group also did not make any statement.They also took the announcement of deep space technology as a joke. Are these core technologies something you can study if you want to?

Not to mention the outside world, even deep space technology has voices of doubt. Everyone is wondering, what is the company's next step?
If they really don't need Qualcomm's smart chips and Samsung's memory, where can they find hardware with the same performance?

The only good news is that because users are worried that they will not be able to buy such Mars smartphones in the future, the sales of Mars smartphones have increased again.

But these sales also consume the chip inventory hoarded by Deep Space Technology.

In order to stabilize the morale of the army, Meng Xiaobai decided to first show the company's confidence to the senior management, so he summoned the relevant senior management and prepared to visit Deep Space Semiconductor.

"Deep Space Semiconductor, what else can they do?" Everyone was very skeptical. Deep Space Semiconductor has been established for two years, and its presence is pitifully low.Some people in the company even suggested that the company should be cancelled, and the money spent every year has not seen a splash. The performance of the smart home appliance chip released last time was too rubbish, and Pan Yu beat it back.

Semiconductor technology is monopolized by major foreign companies, and they don't expect Deep Space Semiconductor to do anything at all.
