my return 2002

Chapter 330 I really want to pour a glass of wine on his face

The Bund of Shanghai, a private club.

in the box.

Shen Lang poured Lei Jun a cup of tea.

"Although Meizu has won now, the competition with Xiaomi will only become more and more fierce in the future. Don't relax on your side."

Lei Jun looked a little tired. Unlike Meizu, Xiaomi had no previous accumulation of MP3, and he needed to build many things from scratch, such as offline sales channels.

At present, due to the insufficient supply of chips, the sales volume of Xiaomi and Meizu is not very different, but Lei Jun is very clear that once the supply of chips is relieved, Meizu's shipments will far exceed Xiaomi. Advantage.

Lei Jun also wants to open up offline sales channels, but this is not an easy task. On the one hand, the supply of goods is not sufficient; Online channels are slower.

After hearing Lei Jun finished speaking, Shen Lang said seriously.

"My suggestion is that Xiaomi should not only do offline sales channels, but also better do it by itself."

Lei Jun frowned when he heard this: "Do it yourself? Isn't the cost too high?"

Shen Lang put down the teacup in his hand, and said unhurriedly: "Computers with the same price in Shenzhou far surpass Lenovo in terms of configuration, why are there so many users who would rather spend more money to buy Lenovo computers?"

"This is the advantage of offline channels, especially electronic products. Who can guarantee that their products will be 100% problem-free in the hands of users? Offline stores not only solve sales problems, but also after-sales problems."

"The Star system has been open-sourced. In a few months, there will be a large wave of mobile phones equipped with the Star system, which will definitely bring about a wave of fierce price competition. At this time, differentiated competition will be carried out. Although the third-party sales channels are fast , but we need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to manage it, so we might as well spend the money on self-built stores.”

"We will get twice the result with half the effort when we have a certain number of stores and formulate a complete channel supplier management process before supplying channel suppliers."

Apart from convenience, there is another main reason why online shopping is popular, that is, offline stores have developed a habit of defrauding consumers over the years, especially for some electronic products. Computer City almost treats consumers as piglets and slaughters them. They can sell one or two thousand computers for four to five thousand. Selling one computer is a double profit. After consumers are cheated, they have no place to reason. These offline stores often have a backstage, and consumers have nowhere to complain. Otherwise, they will be harassed by some hooligans.

Lei Jun heard this and said hesitantly: "But Xiaomi's funds are not enough to support such a large-scale investment, I am afraid it needs financing."

Shen Lang smiled and patted Lei Jun on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You can decide for yourself. As I said, Xiaomi is your entrepreneurial project. I am only responsible for providing ammunition. If you really can't get the investment, I will come to you." Help you out."

Lei Jun nodded movedly, and was about to say something when suddenly the door of the box was pushed open.

An old man with gray hair came in.

"Oh, Mr. Zhang, welcome, welcome, come, please sit down." Shen Lang went up to greet him with an extremely enthusiastic look.

Zhang Zhongmou also held Shen Lang's hand enthusiastically, as if he hated seeing each other late.

"I've heard that Boss Shen is young and promising, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation."

Shen Lang waved his hands again and again: "What did Mr. Zhang say? You were admitted to Harvard University at the age of 18. You were the only Chinese among the more than 1000 Harvard freshmen. I can't compare with you."

The two flattered each other for a while, people who don't know Shen Lang probably think that he has a lot of respect for Zhang Zhongmou, but Lei Jun can see clearly that behind Shen Lang's smile is deep fear.

After Zhang Zhongmou was seated, Shen Lang introduced Lei Jun to him, and Zhang Zhongmou naturally praised him generously.

"I am really relieved to see so many rising stars. The future status of the Chinese in the world depends on you to fight for it."

Shen Lang sneered secretly, the status of the Chinese cannot be changed by one or two outstanding talents. Are there still few outstanding Chinese talents in these years?Only the overall improvement of the military, economy, and technology can make the Chinese straighten up and be a man. This is also the logic of power that Western society has always pursued.

After a few perfunctory words, Shen Lang called the waiter.

Shen Lang said to Zhang Zhongmou: "Mr. Zhang heard that your ancestral home is Ningbo, so I decided to order some Ningbo dishes. Do you think it's okay?"

Zhang Zhongmou said with some emotion: "Oh, Boss Shen is bothering you."

"Let's serve."

At this time, Zhang Zhongmou was over 70 years old, and Shen Lang didn't like drinking his wine, so he just sang a few glasses and stopped toasting.

Zhang Zhongmou tasted the food, chewed it carefully, wiped his mouth halfway through eating, and turned his head to Shen Lang.

"By the way, Mr. Shen hasn't had time to congratulate you yet. Godson-3 has achieved great success this time. It's really gratifying to congratulate."

Shen Lang's heart tightened, and it really came, and he quickly dealt with it with 12 points of energy.

"Mr. Zhang was joking. I'm just making a fuss, and my annual order is only a few million pieces. To be honest, if there is no mobile terminal chip suitable for the Star system on the market, I really have no plans to make it. This thing is really expensive."

Hearing Shen Lang's bitterness, Zhang Zhongmou didn't think there was anything wrong. From the information he collected on Shen Lang, the Internet was the foundation of Shen Lang's life. The reason why Shen Lang made mobile phones was largely to promote the Internet products are transformed into mobile terminals.

Of course, Zhang Zhongmou did not believe that Shen Lang would give up making chips. After all, investing so much money, not one or two products could pay back the cost. Although chip design is not as huge as the investment in chip manufacturing, it is definitely not a small sum.

"Hey, Mr. Shen is being humble. The success of Godson-3 is obvious to all. Although the orders are not too many now, I believe that under the leadership of Mr. Shen, the follow-up will increase rapidly."

Zhang Zhongmou just wanted to ask Shen Lang to hand over the order of Godson 3 to TSMC, but Shen Lang interrupted him.

"Mr. Zhang really thinks highly of me. I don't know anything about technology. Godson International is completely supported by Mr. Hu, and I just invested some money."

Zhang Zhongmou still did not give up: "But as far as I know, Mr. Shen is the major shareholder of Godson International."

"That's right, I do hold the highest stake, but Mr. Zhang should know that Loongson International is a project I cooperate with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences still owns a lot of shares." Shen Lang gave me a helpless expression.

Zhang Zhongmou couldn't help being a little puzzled, he didn't know what was acting, or it was really what he said.

"Mr. Shen, as far as I know, SMIC's current 45NM production capacity can no longer meet the orders for Godson 3, and now that SMIC is involved in lawsuits, it is almost impossible to add a new 45NM production line. Mr. Shen should do it early. Well planned."

Seeing Zhang Zhongmou's expression: I'm doing it for your own good, Shen Lang almost couldn't hold back his curses.

Why is SMIC involved in lawsuits?To put it bluntly, isn't it you, a bad old man, who is playing tricks behind your back?

However, Shen Lang still forcibly suppressed his anger and made a embarrassed expression.

"However, Mr. Zhang, we have signed a contract with SMIC. All orders for Godson 3 must be handed over to SMIC. If we breach the contract, we will face high compensation."

Zhang Zhongmou smiled, patted Shen Lang on the shoulder and said in a low voice: "Oh, Mr. Shen needs to be more flexible in his life, just make a small change in the design of Godson 3, and make a Godson 3A or Godson 4 , isn’t it all right?”

Shen Lang cursed secretly in his heart, this old guy is worthy of being an old Jianghu, and he has a lot of crooked ideas.

Seeing Shen Lang lost in thought, Zhang Zhongmou stepped up again.

"Mr. Shen, to tell you the truth, TSMC is already conquering the 32NM process, and it is expected to break through mass production soon. As long as Mr. Shen can guarantee that the order will be handed over to TSMC in the future, our latest 32NM process capacity can set aside five points." Give one of them to Mr. Shen, and the price of Godson-3 can be discounted by 10%"

Lei Jun couldn't help but look at Zhang Zhongmou in surprise. He didn't expect him to offer such favorable conditions to Shen Lang. You must know that the latest technology of chip manufacturers is generally only available to companies with long-term cooperation and sufficient orders. Because chip manufacturing If you want to break through the shackles of the manufacturing process, you need to spend tens of billions of manpower, material and financial resources. After spending so much money, you must make money back. If the cooperative manufacturer is unreliable, the order will drop sharply. , leading to the shutdown of the production line, every minute is money.

Shen Lang couldn't help but sneer, this old guy is really good at writing empty promises, the subprime mortgage crisis will break out in a few months, and trigger a global financial tsunami, then TSMC's orders will drop sharply. Just being dissatisfied, the old guy obviously sensed the crisis, so he gave such a condition. If it were someone else, he might really be intimidated by him.

"Mr. Zhang, why don't you do this? Mr. Lei is here today. I will discuss with Mr. Hu later and hand over Xiaomi's chips to TSMC for OEM. I will communicate with Mr. Hu about the follow-up cooperation. What do you think?"

Zhang Zhongmou was naturally dissatisfied with this result, but seeing Shen Lang's expression of: I have tried my best, it is hard to speak again.

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from Mr. Shen."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Seeing off Zhang Zhongmou, Shen Lang also breathed a sigh of relief, and Lei Jun couldn't help but joked: "Your co-author came to me today to sell me to TSMC?"

Shen Lang patted Lei Jun on the shoulder and scolded with a smile: "Come on, don't be ignorant of your blessings. If you don't like it, I will hand over Meizu's chips to TSMC."

"No, you kid can fool Zhang Zhongmou, but you can't fool me. Hurry up, don't be fooled." Lei Jun pressed Shen Lang's shoulder and asked.

Shen Lang had no choice but to explain the reason. The reason why Xiaomi’s chips were handed over to TSMC was that SMIC’s production capacity could not keep up with it. On the other hand, Xiaomi was taking a high-end route and had relatively high requirements for chips. , but the increase in output is limited. Even if it is handed over to TSMC, it will not have much impact on his subsequent chip localization layout.

Moreover, if Xiaomi wants to take the high-end route, it must pursue the latest chip manufacturing process. SMIC has been entangled in lawsuits, and it has been difficult to obtain international cutting-edge technology. In a short period of time, it is impossible for domestic chips to break through 45NM instead of being stuck at 45NM It is better to use high-end brands such as Xiaomi to improve the chip design capabilities of Godson International.

As for the manufacture of domestic chips, these low-end models of the Xiaomi sub-brand do not have high demand for chip performance, and 45NM is enough. With a large number of orders for these low-end models, it is also enough to leverage the entire upstream and downstream industry chain of domestic chips.

"I just said that you kid must be laying mines for Zhang Zhongmou." Lei Jun scolded with a smile.

Hearing this, Shen Lang lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and said with a wry smile: "What kind of burying mine, I just did it as a last resort, if I can, I really want to pour a glass of wine on this old guy's face!"

It has nothing to do with the dispute between good and evil, but they have different positions. Zhang Zhongmou has stabbed the knife several times at the critical moment of the development of domestic chips, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the culprit is the culprit.

Lei Jun also sighed, then picked up a glass of wine and touched Shen Lang: "Then set a goal, ten years later, try to splash this glass of wine on his face!"

"Ten years?" Shen Lang shook his head: "We are still too far behind, ten years is unrealistic, let's say 20 years, I believe we will be able to do it in 20 years!"

Shen Lang still understands the truth that haste makes waste. Chip manufacturing is an extremely complicated process, and the technologies involved are all the top in the world. Western countries have developed for so many years before they have the current leading edge.

Why can we surpass others in only ten years?
It is the worst thing to be ambitious in basic science, and you can only catch up step by step.

That night, Shen Lang told Hu Weiwu about the meeting with Zhang Zhongmou today.

Hu Weiwu couldn't help holding back his energy when he heard the words: "Well, Mr. Shen, you have done a good job, and the next thing is up to us."

Time soon came to the Spring Festival, and Shen Lang and his cousin Shen Hongbin returned to their hometown to celebrate the New Year.

In the past six months, Shen Hongbin also got a deputy manager of the logistics center in Jingdong Logistics. On the one hand, of course, it was because of Shen Lang's face, and on the other hand, Shen Hongbin was flexible and quick to learn.

This year's New Year is much more lively than in previous years. Later Shen Lang found out after hearing from his father that he helped build the road in his hometown, and many relatives from his hometown came to pay New Year's greetings.

The relatives in the hometown naturally praised Shen Lang for a while, they almost regarded him as the God of Wealth on the desk, burned incense and kowtowed.

Mom Zhou Chunxiang has also become a well-deserved C player, she walks with the wind, in the words of her father Shen Liang, this old lady can go to heaven with a breath.

Staying at home until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Lang returned to Shanghai with Shen Hongbin.

On the first day of work, Shen Lang gathered all the executives for a meeting. In addition to the summary of last year's business, the most important thing was naturally the business development of each project team this year.
