Rebuild 2005

Chapter 1048 [1047] Arranged a blind date
"Are curved screens so troublesome?"

After returning from BOE, Jiang Qinghuai said with some emotion in the car, "But it's really beautiful and has a sense of technology. The screen can actually be bent..."

Ten years later, the evaluation of curved screens is polarized. Some people like it very much, while others dislike it. Just watching the sound of the Internet is simply disgusting.

However, from the initial Samsung, to the later Huawei, and then more and more manufacturers followed to make curved screens, there must be a reason.

In addition to the preference of some consumers, an important reason is that the curved screen can greatly improve the texture of mobile phones.

This is tantamount to a shortcut for domestic mobile phone manufacturers who do not have much background in the high-end market and want to hit the high-end market, and they are naturally flocking to them.

At the beginning of the appearance of the curved screen, the shock to ordinary consumers was even stronger.

In the autumn of 2014, Samsung released the first curved screen mobile phone Samsung note edge together with note4. As a brand new attempt, Samsung note edge only has a curved screen on one side, but it still caused a sensation and made the original protagonist note4 dim dull.

Seeing this situation, Samsung resolutely increased its efforts in the second year of S6, and launched the S6 edge with double-sided curved screen
——Whether it is market feedback or word-of-mouth, S6 edge has been a great success, stealing the limelight of S6, which also has a metal frame, a glass back cover, and a greatly improved texture.

While the iPhone6 ​​and iPhone6 ​​plus have achieved great success, the S6 edge has become the only smartphone on the market that can compete with the iPhone6 ​​series.

Huawei then followed up. The mate2016 pro launched in 9 also used a hyperboloid screen, and it was supplied by Samsung, so just like HTC, the supply was cut off.

In fact, before this, Huawei P1 was also cut off by Samsung. Huawei didn't have a long memory, but it had no choice. It had no choice in terms of OLED screens.

This is the reason for the cooperation with BOE, and the OLED curved screen of BOE was used on the Mate2018 Pro, which was accumulated and developed in 20.

Because of Wei Qingfan's intervention, BOE in this world has invested in the research and development of flexible screens earlier, and has been committed to the mass production of mobile phone flexible screens from the beginning, but the progress has not been smooth.

The first is the arrangement of OLED screens. Wei Qingfan's "diamond-like arrangement" is not safe, because there is no way to bypass Samsung's patents, and Samsung's authorization is still required (it was also required in history).

Secondly, in terms of the production of OLED screens, pixel arrangement is actually not the biggest problem, or the biggest difficulty is not here.

After all, although BOE's "2-in-1" delta arrangement (commonly known as "Zhou Dongyu's arrangement" on the Internet) has a higher loss than Samsung's diamond row, the pixel loss rate of the drill row is 81%, while the yellow duck arrangement is It is 71%, but it is still usable after all, and the display effect is actually not bad.

For the current domestic OLED screens, what needs to be solved is the problem of "existence", not whether it is easy to use.

BOE has energy production and can supply, and Samsung dare not cut off the supply easily.

At present, including ten years later, the development of domestic OLED screens is plagued by more upstream materials and production lines. Even after ten years, the localization rate of materials is extremely low.

For example, in 2023, the domestic proportion of hole layer injection/transport materials and electron layer injection/transport materials is only 12%, while the domestic proportion of luminescent slaves is less than 5%.

This is the cruel truth behind the "rise of domestic OLED screens" in the eyes of consumers, and it is also a mountain that people in the industry want to remove.

The difficulty of overcoming the technical barriers behind it is not much worse than that of the semiconductor industry.

In terms of production lines, Samsung built a 2007-generation AMOLED screen production line in 4.5, and the first domestic 4.5-generation production line was established by Tianma in 2010;
Subsequently, BOE skipped the 2014-generation line in 4.5 and directly put into production the 6-generation line-this is the main reason and goal for Wei Qingfan to find BOE.

Tianma's 6th generation line was only put into production in 2018, and Huaxing Optoelectronics' 6th generation line was not put into production until 2019.

In terms of flexible OLED screens, Samsung officially announced the mass production of the 2015th generation flexible production line in 6, and BOE announced mass production in 2017, only two years later than Samsung.

Yes, it's "only" two years late, which is a huge improvement.

What Wei Qingfan wants to do is to let BOE, which is already catching up, catch up faster, and it is best to achieve mass production in 2015.

—— Gushi’s curved-screen mobile phone can be released in the autumn of 2014 together with the wine 4, and will be sold in a small amount by the end of the year, and will be actually shipped in 2015.

Judging from the current progress, it can only be said that there is some hope, but it is relatively slim.

Wei Qingfan didn't know much about technical issues, he only knew the general direction, and while trying to point out the directions he didn't know much about, he used his most powerful weapon: making money!

With the increase in the right to speak and influence in the upstream and downstream industry chains, ancient poetry companies are now more demanding in cooperation, but they are really not stingy in terms of money.

In addition to the cooperative company being able to follow the soup, the company has an additional requirement this year: the salary of the team that cooperates with the ancient poetry company must meet the requirements of the ancient poetry company.

To put it simply, the other party must give the team members who cooperate with the ancient poetry company a salary increase.

It is mainly aimed at domestic companies, because the treatment of employees of foreign cooperative companies is already very good.

This can effectively improve the work enthusiasm of the cooperative team.

The same is true for the cooperation with BOE. Wei Qingfan even provided additional bonuses and promised more bonuses after mass production.

Such a move is very effective in improving morale, but how much can be converted into work progress is currently unknown.

"I'm looking forward to it..."

Jiang Qinghuai knew the difficulties inside and Wei Qingfan's worries, so he consciously comforted him, "Miaomiao should be even more pleasantly surprised, don't tell her, and I won't tell her, wait until the engineering machine is made out someday. , give it to her directly, she must be very pleasantly surprised."

"I am looking forward too."

Wei Qingfan smiled, took one of her hands and put it on her thigh, stroked it lightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry about me, I have basically done what I can do, there is no regret if it succeeds or not. And in the worst case, it will definitely be mass-produced in 16, which is enough."

"Ah."

Jiang Qinghuai nodded and was about to speak when the phone rang suddenly. She took out the phone and saw that it was her father calling, so she turned to look at Wei Qingfan.

Wei Qingfan pursed his lips, indicating that it was just a phone call, so he didn't need to let go.

Jiang Qinghuai was angry and funny, glared at him, and then connected the phone, "Hello, Dad?"

"Qingqing, are you busy?"

In the receiver, Jiang Qifeng's voice sounded a little low, giving off a tired feeling.

"No, I just finished my work and I'm on my way back to the company. What's the matter?"

After the meeting just finished, she received a message from Zhao Yu, and then asked her father, and learned that the wallpaper he wanted had been found, so she was basically sure that it wasn't that matter.

"..."

Jiang Qifeng was silent for two seconds, and asked, "Are you busy with work recently?"

"It's okay...what's the matter?"

Jiang Qinghuai felt something was wrong, "Is there something wrong?"

"Yes, there is something."

Jiang Qifeng sighed softly, "If you can ask for leave, you can go home as soon as possible, okay?"

"what?"

Jiang Qinghuai was taken aback, "What happened? Tell me."

Jiang Qifeng said: "It's not clear on the phone, you come back first, and I'll tell you in person, okay?"

"No, what's the matter?"

Jiang Qinghuai was a little anxious, "Are you sick? Or is your auntie sick? It can't be that something happened to Yingying, right?"

Jiang Qifeng said: "Neither, you don't want to think about it, ask Wei Qingfan for a vacation, and go home as soon as possible, okay?"

"What do you tell me first? Otherwise, how can I ask for leave?"

Jiang Qinghuai was anxious and helpless, and said in a somewhat reproachful tone, "Is there anything I can't say? If you don't tell me, I won't go home."

"Come back quickly."

Jiang Qifeng sighed, "Dad really has something to do, otherwise it won't affect your work, come back early, okay?"

"...OK, OK."

Jiang Qinghuai agreed very depressed, "I'll go back later."

"Hey, okay, then I'll hang up."

Jiang Qifeng hung up the phone very simply, Jiang Qinghuai heard the blind tone, took the phone away, looked at the screen again, and then turned to look at Wei Qingfan, the expression on his pure and sweet little face seemed a little confused.

Wei Qingfan stroked her palm lightly, and said with a smile, "Don't think about it, it shouldn't be a bad thing, otherwise I'd call, there's no need not to tell you."

"Then why is he in such a hurry to let me go back?"

Jiang Qinghuai breathed a sigh of relief, looked at him with clear eyes and said, "Then I'll take a leave of absence, go back and have a look, and I'll come back if there's nothing else to do."

"Okay, then tell Sister Min to book a ticket for you first."

Wei Qingfan nodded and said, "Let Brother Yong take you there later."

"Need not."

Jiang Qinghuai shook his head and said, "I'll just go back by myself."

"I have nothing to do here anyway, and I will be in prison at the company in the afternoon."

Wei Qingfan smiled softly, "I won't see you off, be good."

Jiang Qinghuai had something to do in the afternoon, so he couldn't get away. Hearing what he said, he blushed and nodded, and said, "Then take you back to the company first, and then Brother Yong will take me to the airport."

"Aren't you going back with some luggage?"

"I'll go back and get it later."

While talking, Jiang Qinghuai sent a message to Pang Yingying, asking if something happened at home.

Pang Yingying replied quickly:
"what?"

"No!"

"I don't know anything!"

Jiang Qinghuai was even more worried, so he called Yu Xiurong, who had become a stepmother, and the phone was connected quickly. She hurriedly asked, "Auntie, what's the matter? Why is my dad so anxious to let me go home?"

"I can't tell on the phone."

Yu Xiurong over there sighed softly, "Qingqing, listen to your father, come home first, let's talk when we get home, okay?"

"I've already asked for leave and I'm going to the airport right away."

Jiang Qinghuai still didn't give up, and was worried that something serious would happen, "I'm going back, why didn't you tell me?"

"It's not clear on the phone, you come back first and we'll talk, huh?"

Yu Xiurong still said the same, and then comforted: "Don't worry, we are all fine, no one has any accidents, just come back quickly."

"It's all right, so why are you in such a hurry to let me go back?"

"You'll know when you come back."

"Ok."

Jiang Qinghuai had no choice but to hang up the phone, seeing Wei Qingfan chatting with someone beside him, he said angrily, "What are you doing?"

"I'll be your secretary."

Wei Qingfan smiled as he continued typing, "Let Sister Min buy you a plane ticket, it's [-]:[-] in the afternoon, is it in time?"

They arrived at BOE just after ten o'clock and had lunch there at noon. It was already almost two and a half hours, which was enough time for her to pack her things and head to the airport.

"Ah."

Jiang Qinghuai nodded, frowned, and said in doubt, "Tell me, what could it be?"

"You'll know when you go back."

Wei Qingfan actually had a guess, but it was hard to tell Jiang Qinghuai.

What's the matter, so urgent that Jiang Qinghuai has to go home quickly, but can't tell her on the phone?

Based on the experience in novels and TV, it is easy to speculate on a possibility:
If Jiang Qinghuai had told this matter in advance, she might not want to go back!
For example... arrange a blind date for her.

There was no way to talk about it, because if he said it, Jiang Qinghuai would definitely not want to go back, so if it was not a blind date but something serious, it might be delayed.

Anyway, even if a blind date is arranged, Jiang Qinghuai will not go there then, he still has some confidence and is not worried.
