Actually I just want to act

Chapter 185 No future without core technology
The banquet started soon. In fact, this banquet was just a cover. Everyone came to discuss business cooperation intentions.

"Mr. Song, your Han style is really powerful. In 10 years, you have become one of the best companies in the domestic communications industry." Li Yuanwu couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He didn't expect Huawei to do this.

Song Zhengkun smiled, and said, "We made it to this point by smashing technology."

"I heard that Hanfeng is going to do mobile phone OEM for Mobile?" Huang Tongfu asked.

Song Zhengkun smiled wryly and said: "Business is hard to do. If you want to do business with Meilijian, you have to start with apprentices first. In fact, this business, I think it is very likely that there is no loss or profit. It is even possible that you have to pay some money. tuition fee."

Fang Jiming was stunned. Isn't this Huawei's mobile phone OEM for Motorola in his previous life?And later, Huawei almost sold to Motorola.In the previous life, Huawei, relying on the main specifications of its products, has basically been able to align with Western manufacturers. Taking advantage of the Asian financial turmoil, it has won the GSM markets in Annan, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand with a price advantage that is 30% lower than competitors. .Subsequently, Huawei used the same means to gradually expand its advantages to the Middle East and African markets.It is precisely in this way that Huawei was able to survive the years when the Internet bubble burst.Otherwise, Huawei is already dead.

Unfortunately, Huawei has invested a lot of money in the research and development of GSM and subsequent WCDMA technologies. GSM is actually a 2G network, not to mention WCDMA, everyone who is familiar with it knows that it is a 3G technology.It's a pity that Huawei didn't know China's attitude towards 3G, and it didn't become clear until 4G was coming soon.Just like that, Huawei made a misjudgment in the PHS and mobile phone business, almost didn't die, and almost sold itself to Motorola.

I don't know if Hanfeng will do the same?

Fang Jiming thought about it, but he didn't think so, because the PHS technology had already been partly patented by Hanfeng, and the income was quite high.It is estimated that in the future, Hanfeng will continue to stick to communication technology, right?Maybe, now Hanfeng is ready to make a mobile phone.After all, they will not turn a blind eye to such a big outlet in the future.

At this time, Conoco Feihong looked at Zhang Pingcheng, his old rival, and said with a smile: "Didn't Le Xin also take over the mobile phone production task of Mobai?"

Zhang Pingcheng was drinking tea and almost choked. "Just like Mr. Song, it's just to make a little money..." He was a little depressed. If Kang Feihong didn't say it, who would know?

Fang Jiming said seriously: "We are doing OEM work for others, I am afraid it is just a temporary choice. Once China's economy develops, people's living standards improve, and mobile phone profits cannot keep up, then foreign countries will transfer their production lines to India and Afghanistan. Three places, to Southeast Asia. If we want to retain profits, we need to accumulate capital and carry out industrial upgrading. At the very least, we must have core technology and be able to independently manufacture mobile phones.”

Song Zhengkun was a little surprised: "What Fang Dong said makes sense, is it possible that Fang Dong also wants to enter the mobile phone industry?"

Fang Jiming smiled wryly and said, "I'm full of pessimism about the future of the mobile phone industry. Within five years, there may not be more than ten domestic mobile phone manufacturers that will survive." It proves that without core technology, when foreign mobile phone manufacturers compete with you on price, you will not be able to compete with them.

Are you cheap?Well, foreign manufacturers set up factories in China, and the labor is the same as yours.Do you have a wide range of channels?Well, foreign manufacturers cooperate with major retailers and electrical appliance manufacturers, and they also have channels, which are better than yours.More importantly, other people's processing chips, radio frequency chips, motherboards, systems... are all their own intellectual property rights. If you cut prices casually, what do you do with domestic mobile phone manufacturers?

The supply chain is stuck in the hands of others, and the core technology is stuck in the hands of others. Wait for others to light up the butcher's knife and go crazy for about two years, and domestic mobile phone manufacturers will almost disappear.

After being told by Fang Jiming, Zhang Pingcheng, who was planning to enter the mobile phone industry on a large scale, said confidently: "Fang Dong's words are wrong. Look at us, we have already accounted for half of the mobile phone sales. Most likely."

Fang knows that this is indeed possible, but it is only possible after reshuffle, establishing brand advantages, possessing core technology, and being able to control the right to speak.Even so, in the previous life, when China’s mobile phone shipments accounted for more than 80% of the world’s total, [-]% of the profits in the mobile phone industry were taken away by Apple.

why?
Because they have a core technology that you can't break, it's that simple.

Zhang Pingcheng is full of confidence, but Song Zhengkun and Huang Tongfu are deep in thought. They seem to recall the time when China was stuck by foreign countries.

A machine, when the Chinese cannot manufacture it independently, foreign countries will sell it to you at a sky-high price.When the Chinese are able to manufacture independently, and the quality reaches 80% of foreign countries, the price of foreign products will be crazily reduced, which will suppress your enthusiasm for innovation.When the Chinese manufacturing technology fully catches up, that foreign company will die, because it has no way to play the cost game with China.

As in the manufacturing industry, so should the mobile phone industry.

Smart people know everything from a glimpse, but Zhang Pingcheng is too optimistic.Not to mention that the Chinese cannot make chips now, even if it is a signal radio frequency chip, the motherboard does not have technical property rights.Only the battery, Huineng has broken the monopoly of foreign countries.But how much profit can batteries account for in mobile phones?
But Ling Changyun said carelessly: "Anyway, foreign countries can't fight a price war with China. It's still okay for us to eat the low-end market. In the future, we will upgrade slowly."

Li Yuanwu also said: "The technology of foreign mobile phones is not much better than that of China. Isn't it the same now that you can only make calls and send text messages?"

ConocoPhillips said indifferently: "Donglai Air Conditioner has core technology, and foreign air conditioner brands have lowered the price by 20%."

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone fell silent.

The core technology of air conditioning is actually not difficult to break through.But mobile phones are different, especially chips. After investing one billion yuan, you may not hear any sound.

Seeing the tense atmosphere during the meeting, Li Yuanwu quickly said, "The mobile phone industry is not easy. Let's talk about the Internet. It's a hot topic right now. Director Fang, your QQ has killed a bloody road, hasn't it?"

Fang Jiming smiled and said, "Actually, it's mainly because I'm willing to spend money."

Of course, Fang Jiming would not say that he has a vision 20 years beyond this era, and knows which direction things are going to be the right one.

"The Internet is not easy to do now, there are too many competitors." Ling Changyun said with emotion, "Jiuzhou is under siege very badly now, if the next wave cannot be defended, it will really be gone."

Fang Zhiming remained silent, he knew that he was a soft-spoken person and might not be able to influence the judgment of these big bosses, so let them develop according to their own wishes.A company that has not experienced setbacks will not grow up.
