Rebirth 2010: I add some points to be a boss

Chapter 500: Salary increase!Touching interests is harder than touching souls

Shanhai Group Headquarters.

In the chairman's office on the 33rd floor, Lei Jun stood in front of the window, watching the heads of more than a dozen mobile phone manufacturers such as Huayao, Zhongxin, and Opal getting into their cars and leaving one after another. He immediately turned to look at Chen Heyu, pondered for a moment and said:

"Boss, do you think they will do it in disguise?"

Because whether it is to make the OD staff full-time or to optimize the operation and management of the foundry, an additional cost is required.

"Bao Jianbai is a smart man, and Luo Yonghao is not bad either. As for Li Zhixuan and Chen Yongming, it depends on whether they can handle the foundry company. I will give it three more months at most. By the end of March next year, all mobile phone brands that have not completed the adjustment will be cancelled." Authorized cooperation with Shanhai M-5 chip, Shanhai M-6 chip, and Moss Ai intelligent voice system."

Chen Heyu smiled lightly and said without thinking.

In his plan, he would either accept the conditions of Shanhai Group or go wherever he can.

Lei Jun was silent and smiled in agreement.

White mist rose from the kettle on the coffee table. He diligently carried the teapot and refilled Chen Heyu's tea.

"There is a lounge next to it. Let's go back and take a rest for a while. Tim from Apple and Pei Dongzhen from Sanxing will arrive around 02:30. Don't be in a hurry."

Chen Heyu picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and then warned.

"Okay, boss."

Lei Jun nodded and responded. He shouted "boss" very smoothly.

With rice phones and rice cars, he has stood at the pinnacle of the Chinese business community. As early as last year, he ranked first in the global smartphone sales list.

Rice Suspension Motorcycle, Rice Youth Edition, Rice Hot-blooded Edition, Rice Tank and Rice Air Car are even more popular in countries around the world.

Although he lost his controlling stake, the market value of Rice Technology surged more than tenfold.

In the last life, at the same time, the total market value of Rice Technology was 3000 billion Chinese dollars, but in this life it has become 4100 billion US dollars.

Apple's total market value is over $4000 billion, and it is not favored by investors. It is generally believed that the stock price is inflated and its potential is limited.

After all, Rice Technology, the No. 1 company in the industry, has a total market value of only US$4100 billion. How can Apple keep pace with it?
The performance and power consumption of Shanhai M series chip products far exceed Apple's own bionic chips. Even on iPhone X, iPhone XS and iPhone XR, in order to retain existing users, Tim once again launched the Enable processor accessories from third-party companies.

However, what is embarrassing is that on the same model, the performance of Shanhai M-5 is stronger than that of A11 Bionic.

Although both use the 5nm process, in terms of processor speed, graphics processing and multi-tasking capabilities, the mobile phone equipped with Shanhai M-5 is significantly smoother when running applications and games.

In terms of energy efficiency, integration, 4G network and connection performance, Shanhai M-5 still beats A11 Bionic, so users usually ask about the model of the mobile phone chip before purchasing.

If it is Shanhai M-5, buyers will usually place an order directly. If it is A11 Bionic, they will choose to wait. Only when there is really no other way, they will choose A11 Bionic.

The core reason why Tim traveled thousands of miles to go to Shanghai in person was because he saw the decline in Apple's development.

The IOS system no longer has innate advantages. The Hongmeng 2.7 system integrated with the Moss AI voice assistant, jointly promoted by Dami, Huayao, Opal, and Lixiang, continues to erode the market share of Android and IOS.

In other words, the person who now controls the absolute voice in the mobile phone industry is Chen Heyu and Shanhai Group!
After drinking a pot of hot tea, Lei Jun stood up to say goodbye. Under the guidance of his assistant Xiao Yao, he walked into a temporary lounge.

Chen Heyu looked up at his watch and saw that there was less than an hour left, just in time to catch up on his nap.

at the same time.

Bao Jianbai, Li Zhixuan, Chen Yongming, Cai Zhen, Luo Yonghao and others, after driving out of the park, drove into a business hotel and went straight to the banquet hall.

"Mr. Bao, among us, you have the oldest qualifications and the most respected position. Do we really want to obey the arrangements of Shanhai Group?"

After Li Zhixuan took his seat, he got straight to the point.

As soon as he said this, many people immediately agreed. Chen Heyu's approach is really overbearing. Everyone buys your products and services for win-win cooperation. Where do you have the confidence to point fingers and dare to teach us? work?

"Haven't the agreement of intent been signed? Do you still want to break the contract?"

Bao Jianbai raised his eyes and asked lightly.

He finally figured it out, and he knew very well that Mr. Meng's will must be behind Shanhai Group's qualification review of buyers.

Huayao, there is only one way to choose, execute it without any complaints!
"Mr. Bao, what do you mean, Huayao doesn't intend to resist, but responds positively?"

Chen Yongming asked rhetorically.

"That's right! Before New Year's Day, I will resolve the contract issues for all outsourced employees. In early January, I will strive to complete the adjustment of the foundry's production capacity plan."

Bao Jianbai said minding his own business.

He thought very clearly that if Huayao dared to jump out and cause trouble, Future Technology would definitely stop supplying Hongmeng system and Moss voice system to Huayao.

I don’t know who gave Chen Yongming the courage to want to unite everyone to boycott the Shanhai Group’s decision.

Bao Jianbai sneered in his heart, looking at Chen Yongming's expression as if he were looking at a clown.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with it. The worst I can do is raise the OEM service fee."

Luo Yonghao shrugged. He followed him just to watch the excitement. There were more than a dozen mobile phone brands with many people talking, so naturally he had to be the first to express his position.

What if there is a sixth person in the team who betrays everyone? How will Mr. Chen look at him then?

The life and death of Tongchui Technology all depends on the supply chain of Shanhai Group. If it loses Hongmeng System, Shanhai Chip and Moss Smart, how many Tongchui mobile phones can be sold?

Chen Yongming looked at Bao Jianbai and then at Luo Yonghao. The outcome of the matter was greatly different from what he had imagined.

Unexpectedly, Huayao, which has [-] outsourcing employees, not only did not object, but actually responded positively.

What kind of medicine is this old fox selling?

Chen Yongming frowned and looked at each other with the CEO of another mobile phone brand, feeling that his wishful thinking had failed.

He was deeply unconvinced by Chen Heyu's proposal. He originally wanted to encourage Bao Jianbai to come forward and unite everyone to protest to the superiors, in order to achieve the purpose of putting pressure on Shanhai Group.

Who would have thought that Bao Jianbai would not accept the call at all and sang along with Luo Yonghao. Before he even opened his mouth, he took the topic astray.

The mobile phone manufacturers who were originally unwilling to give up suddenly felt despair after hearing Bao Jianbai's statement. Even Huayao gave in. How could they dare to go head-on with Shanhai Group?

Once there is a falling out, Future Technology will really dare to run out of stock.

Two years ago, Ames unilaterally tore up the contract and withdrew the after-sales team of DUV lithography machines. As a result, Future Technology simply disconnected the services of Moss Ai glasses and Dream game cabin in Windmill Country, forcing Ames to surrender. Admit your mistake.

Seeing this, Chen Yongming sighed helplessly.

Even if others have thoughts, they don't dare to speak out at the moment. If the atmosphere is not right, the rhythm will not be up.

This short gathering ended up being unhappy, and everyone drove to the company with their own agendas.

The mobile phone industry in Dahua District is about to change!
Luo Yonghao sat in the back seat of the car, thought about it, and then told Chen Heyu exactly what happened just now.

Shanhai Group has kept Tongchui Technology alive, a sentiment he has always kept in mind.

the other side.

When Chen Heyu received Luo Yonghao's text message, he shook his head and said solemnly: "It seems that touching interests is more difficult than touching souls."

Apple offers Futukang an OEM quotation of US$8-10 per unit, which can still support 100 million employees and leave a profit balance.

After conversion, the cost per unit is only 50-70 Chinese dollars.

You know, in recent years, with the support of Shanhai chips, Hongmeng system, unlimited battery life and Moss voice assistant, the prices of domestic mobile phones have also been rising.

Most of the flagship models of various companies cost more than 3000 Chinese dollars for the standard version.

Is the OEM cost high compared to 50-70 Chinese dollars/Taiwan?

What a tall ass!

It only accounts for 1.5%-2% of the terminal selling price!

All of them have the mentality of Grandet, and they want to take out a few more steel coins from every link.

Chen Heyu squinted his eyes, and a list of names flashed through his mind. It seemed that if two or three thorns were not killed, there would always be someone who was lucky.

after an hour.

Accompanied by Lu Lei, CEO of Apple Greater China, Tim walked straight into a conference hall on the top floor. His prepared smile suddenly stopped and showed an unhappy expression when he saw Pei Dongzhen.

Although the market size of the global mobile communications industry has increased and decreased, it has generally not changed much.

The strong rise of Rice Technology has taken away part of the market share, thereby intensifying the competition between Apple and Sanxing.In the first half of the year, the two companies had several battles in Europe and North America, for which they invested a large amount of marketing funds.

It is not difficult to predict that Apple’s 2018 financial statements will definitely not look good in terms of net profit margin.

That's why Tim won't give him a good look!
"Humph!"

Pei Dongzhen had the same mentality and snorted secretly, but it showed that the kung fu must be done in the end.

He deliberately took a step slowly, and after Tim sat down, he greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Tim, long time no see, I thought you would let Mr. Lu handle the purchasing cooperation."

"Apple and Shanhai Group have always had a friendly cooperative relationship. I also want to visit Mr. Chen in person during this trip. I heard that you have a son. I hope you will accept this small gift."

Tim did not answer Pei Dongzhen's words. Instead, he turned his head and said respectfully to Chen Heyu.

Lu Lei on the side immediately handed over a beautiful gift bag.

"Mr. Tim, you're welcome."

Chen Heyu smiled and glanced at Pei Dongzhen intentionally or unintentionally.

It seems to be saying that a foreigner knows how to deal with the world, but Gao Li is in the cultural circle of Greater China, but he is empty-handed. Is he looking down on Chen Heyu?

"Axi!"

Pei Dongzhen couldn't help but curse inwardly. He knew that such details were probably Lu Lei's handiwork.

So he gave Park Changcan a hard look, and the hidden meaning was self-evident: "You loser, you can't even understand this matter."

"You two, please take a seat!"

Lei Jun looked at Pei Dongzhen with amusement, and was filled with emotion. When Rice Phone was first founded, it was suppressed by Sanxing, and the person who took action was Pei Dongzhen in front of him.

In order for the company to survive, he went to Korea in humiliation. After some apology, he cleared up the relationship and resumed chip supply.

Today, the status of the two people has been completely reversed. The person who bowed his head and groveled has become Pei Dongzhen.

Chen Heyu waved his hand, indicating that Lei Jun would be the host and introduce the quotation.

"Mr. Tim, Mr. Pei, I have no objection to Apple and Sanxing's purchase requests. Next, let Mr. Lei explain Shanhai Group's new products to you."

Lei Jun nodded, turned on the computer screen projection as usual, and said calmly:
"The FlexiTouch flexible screen can be bent and folded, with a service life of more than 50 times. It is thinner and more transparent, reducing the thickness and weight of the phone. It has better shock resistance and bending resistance, which can greatly reduce the risk of accidental collision or drop. situations that lead to screen breakage and improve the overall durability of the device.”

“UltraCell Slim ultra-thin lithium-ion battery adopts a more compact design, with a thickness of only 1.1 mm, which can meet the design needs of various ultra-thin digital products, such as smart bracelets and laptops;

High-energy, high-density battery cells reach an energy density of 1600 mAh per cubic centimeter and have stronger battery life;
It supports fast charging mode and adds multiple protection measures against overcurrent, overvoltage and overtemperature..."

Lei Jun talked eloquently and was about to continue introducing the product features of the MicroZoom Pro telephoto camera.

"Mr. Lei, I have no doubts about the quality of Shanhai Group's products. Let's get straight to the point. Let's look at the quotation first."

Tim took the opportunity to interject.

Lei Jun burst out laughing when he heard this, and a smile flashed across his lips. Since everyone had already made it clear that he was willing to accept the "slaughter" of Shanhai Group, there was no need for him to make any more detours.

"FlexiTouch flexible screen: priced from US$45 to US$60;"

"Shanhai M-6 chip: priced at US$210 each;"

“UltraCell Slim ultra-thin lithium-ion battery: price between US$15 and US$25;”

"Shanhai micro memory chip: ranging from US$80 to US$180;"

"MicroZoom Pro camera: $75/unit;"

Lei Jun clicked on a document, enlarged the list, and showed it to Tim and Pei Dongzhen.

Tim took a quick look and found that the cost of screens has increased by 50%, chips have more than doubled, memory chips have increased by 60%-300%, batteries have tripled, and cameras have tripled.

The launch price of iPhone X in beautiful countries is US$999, and the cost of parts is about US$300. In other words, the profit margin of an Apple mobile phone is as high as 70%.

If all Shanhai Group products are used as core accessories in the next generation of products, the profit margin may drop to 50% or even 40%!

At Apple's current size, it is approximately US$120 billion to US$180 billion.

But if it doesn’t agree, Apple’s market share of mobile phones will surely decline further.

Pei Dongzhen also looked embarrassed. He did not speak rashly. The previous lessons were still fresh in his mind.

Chen Heyu's domineering attitude was obvious to all. Compared with three years ago, Shanhai Group was even more powerful. He did not dare to say anything to annoy the other party.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet.

------

Thousands of miles away in Xifu, in a super factory covering an area of ​​140 million square meters.

Just in time for noon.

The workers on the assembly line, dragging their tired bodies, walked to the canteen in groups.

"Have you heard? Starting from next month, you can only work a maximum of 8 hours a day."

"Ah! Where did you get the news?"

"My old cousin works at Yingda Hua to make screws. Their orders mainly come from Huayao Mobile Phones. The upstream supplier Shanhai Group requires that no one, whether they are regular employees of mobile phone manufacturers or operators of OEMs, work overtime. Condition."

"Fuck! If the labor and management don't work overtime, where will the wages come from to support the family? Shanhai Group is full and has nothing to do, so the labor and management are happy to work overtime."

"I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry yet. Apple plans to double the foundry fee for Futukang, and the base salary will most likely increase by then."

"Fuck, that's not enough for me to live on."

Two young men with dark circles under their eyes chatted as they walked.

Similar situations have also appeared in more than 20 electronics foundries across the country, including Shuohe, Bitiya, Silan, and Flextronics. The majority of workers feel that Shanhai Group is meddling.

Even if the basic salary is doubled, it will still pale in comparison to the income they earn from working overtime.

They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, but they are afraid of not having money!
"Gouyue's Shanhai Group should go bankrupt as soon as possible!"

"From today on, I will never buy any products from Shanhai Group again!"

Just as they were yelling at each other, recruitment information for Lucheng Gigafactory No. [-] and Chad Gigafactory No. [-] quickly spread to every corner of the Internet.

There is an eye-catching entrance on the homepages of Shanhai Video, Douyin, Feishou, Sohu and Enterprise.

130 million basic jobs!

The basic salary is 7580 Chinese dollars!

Six insurances and two golds!

Low interest loan!

Internal employee discount!

Corporate pensions!

"Damn! Hurry up and sign up. I missed joining last time, so I had no choice but to come to Futukang to live my life."

"Didn't you just say that you would never buy Shanhai Group's products again? Then you still go to the Gigafactory?"

"I'm just talking, can you take it seriously?"

The workers who were still denouncing the protests suddenly stopped and raced against time to sign up, submit resumes, and participate in online interviews.

Just kidding, what is the concept of a basic salary of 7580 Chinese dollars?
It is three times that of Futukang!
A large number of front-line workers resigned and chose to run away with buckets, but the production capacity was fixed, so the factory had no choice but to take the lead in raising the basic salary.

Futukang raised the basic salary of workers to 4100 Chinese dollars in one fell swoop!
Shuohe rose to 3600 Chinese dollars!

Silan rose to 3700 Chinese dollars!

Weilichuang has risen to 3900 Chinese dollars!

Starting from the mobile phone industry and OEM field, this trend of salary increases has slowly spread to other industries. (End of chapter)
