Super Copy of Great Power Technology

Chapter 369 New Car Launch

The design drawing of this new mobile phone that Qiao Ruida took out was copied from the iPhone 14 pro mobile phone ten years later. There are too many epoch-making spare parts used in it. In fact, Qiao Ruida has simplified a lot of things. Some components that were not even concepts have been replaced with existing accessories. For example, LPDDR5 memory has been replaced by LPDDR4X, and the baseband chip has been replaced from 5G to 4G, and integrated into the processing unit. In the processor chip, the processor manufacturing process has also been changed from 5nm to 7nm, which happens to be processed by Rockchip wafer factory. However, some iconic things cannot be streamlined, such as the under-screen fingerprint sensor and the three rear cameras. These are all preserved.

"There are principles and design drawings of the under-screen fingerprint module in the USB flash drive. Before mass production, remember to apply for a patent. If the camera does not have 4000 million pixels, just use SONY's 3000 million pixels. We have not yet mastered CMOS in China. The chip production technology and lens processing technology are also not up to standard. Even if there are design drawings, you can't make a qualified camera. Try making this phone and see how far it can go. If you can do it before the spring launch next year. Mass production will be released as the first mobile phone of our Ruida Technology to hit the high-end. If it is too late, we will give you another half year to postpone it to the autumn conference and release it together with the next generation Xiaoda mobile phone. " Qiao Ruida also knows this. It is technically difficult to make a mobile phone modeled after the iPhone 14pro in 12. From chips, hardware, to casing processing technology, there are many difficulties that need to be solved, so there is no hard time requirement.

Jamel Xiao picked up the USB flash drive, plugged it into the computer, and opened the root directory of the USB flash drive. There were hundreds of folders densely packed inside, including mobile phone design drawings, chip design drawings, and technical documents on various components and processing techniques. . Jamel Xiao moved the mouse, opened the mobile phone processor design drawing, and browsed it in general. He raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "This is a mobile phone SOC. It is too big. It is 150 square millimeters, and the number of transistors exceeds 150 billion. , this is too exaggerated, it is several times that of the Jiuzhou No. processor. If this chip is used for tape-out, the yield rate will definitely be extremely low, and the production cost will not be sky-high."

"This chip integrates too many functional modules, including CPU, GPU, AI computing core, first- and second-level cache, ISP module, 4G baseband module, etc. So many functional modules are compressed into one chip It is not easy to control the area to 150 square millimeters. This is also thanks to the latest 3D transistor technology. If the traditional 2D transistor process is used, doubling the area is not enough, and the yield rate is lower and the cost is higher. Don’t be afraid, since the wool comes from the sheep anyway, let’s just add the increased cost to the final selling price of the phone. I position this phone as a super flagship, with a price of at least , and even top-end models. If the production cost is more than , it is acceptable.”

Qiao Ruida's price for this super flagship phone is quite exaggerated. After all, in this era when smartphones have just started, the top model of Apple's phone only costs more than 6,000 yuan. Qiao Ruida chose this time to launch such an epoch-making super flagship mobile phone. It did not expect millions or tens of millions of sales. It was just to demonstrate the technical strength of Ruida Technology and enhance the quality of Ruida mobile phones. , creating a high-end brand positioning in the minds of consumers.

"With Mr. Qiao's words, I feel relieved. If you don't consider the yield rate at all and don't care about the soaring costs, it is not impossible to master the technology and produce a batch of products before the spring press conference." Xiao Jamsheng told He looked at the chip design diagram, studied it carefully, and finally expressed his position.

"Well, I don't worry about you doing your work. Okay, you can study it slowly. I'll go back to the office first."

In the following days, Qiao Ruida went to school and the company and was extremely busy every day. This is also thanks to the pre-admission agreement that Qiao Ruida signed with Peking University, which allows him to freely control his time. Whether he attends classes or not depends on his mood. As long as he can successfully pass the final exam, he can get credits and graduate smoothly. Only then can we have enough time and energy to focus on business management.

At the end of the month, Qiao Ruida returned to Decheng City again and hosted the new car launch conference of Ruida Automobile. Originally, Qiao Ruida wanted to hand over the press conference to Shao Heping, the general manager of Ruida Automobile. However, the Propaganda Department said that Ruida Automobile was a new company and did not have any reputation. It needed Qiao Ruida, the richest man in the country, to help the platform to increase its reputation. In desperation, Qiao Ruida had to take advantage of the weekend to return to her hometown again. Du Qingqing had a professional exam to take recently. She wanted to stay here to review and prepare for the exam, so she didn't go home with Qiao Ruida.

Qiao Ruida drove a Roadster sports car on the highway from Beijing to Decheng City. The cruise control was set to 120, and the sports car was always running at the maximum speed limit. At this time, the Roadster sports car had changed from a temporary license plate to a capital license plate. Recently, the policy of supporting new energy vehicles, so that they do not need to queue up to draw lots, can directly apply for a Beijing license plate, is still in place. Qiao Ruida is a direct beneficiary of this policy, and has given green license plates to two MINIEV cars and this Roadster sports car.

Two hours later, the Roadster appeared at the gate of the Ruida Automobile Factory in Decheng City. From a distance, I saw Shao Heping and more than a dozen executives from Ruida Automobile greeting him at the gate. Qiao Ruida parked the car in front of everyone, lowered the window, and said with some displeasure: "I said Manager Shao, in this winter, the temperature is so low, why are you standing at the gate with so many people and making trouble? "

"Um, Mr. Qiao, why are you back so soon? Didn't you say you won't arrive until noon? Just now, Mayor Peng of the city brought people to visit our factory. No, the mayor and his team are leaving. I I took the senior executives of the company to see me off, but before I could go back, I bumped into Mr. Qiao. "Shao Heping was born as an engineer and is not good at flattering others, let alone organizing people to greet him at the gate. boss. Worried that Qiao Ruida would misunderstand, Shao Heping quickly told the truth about the matter.

"Oh, that's it. It seems I misunderstood. Let's go and talk in your office." Now it was Qiao Ruida's turn to be embarrassed. It turned out that it was all a misunderstanding. Shao Heping showed up at the factory with his main staff. The gate is to see off the mayor, not to welcome him as the boss.

"That's fine. I just wanted to report to Mr. Qiao about the preparations for the press conference." Shao Heping was not pretentious. He greeted everyone, boarded several electric patrol cars, and drove them back to the office building in the factory. .

Ten minutes later, in the general manager's office, Shao Heping was reporting to Qiao Ruida: "Our company's investment promotion work has achieved remarkable results recently. As of yesterday, we have signed 42 agent dealers and 243 automobile 4S stores. Our new cars have been basically deployed in all large and medium-sized cities across the country. In the past period, our newly customized car production lines have all arrived and been installed, and the newly recruited workers have also completed pre-job training. This month, our factory Production capacity has been fully released to produce two new cars. Currently, the stock of Roadster sports cars has reached units, half of which are basic models and top models. The stock of MINIEV is relatively large, reaching units. Starting from next month, the monthly production capacity will reach units, which ranks among the top ten domestic car companies."

Qiao Ruida nodded with satisfaction and said: "We have stocking up and sales channels. We just need to hold a new car launch conference to officially launch the two new cars on the market. The launch conference is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, right. How are the preparations going?"

"The venue for the press conference was chosen in the auditorium in our factory. After renovation and upgrading, the site has been almost decorated, with 500 seats reserved, which is enough to accommodate the reporters attending the press conference. This is our way to release new cars. Mr. Qiao, please take a look at the PPT and speech you have prepared. I heard that Mr. Qiao has a very good memory and can remember everything. I think it will not be a problem to memorize all the speeches before the press conference." , Shao Heping opened the laptop on his desk and displayed a PPT and a WORD file in front of Qiao Ruida. Qiao Ruida operated the touch panel and looked through the PPT file. It contained some exquisite car renderings, partial parts structure diagrams, and important function schematics, with simple text annotations, which were clear and understandable at a glance. After reading the PPT file, I opened the speech script, which was densely packed with dozens of pages and tens of thousands of words. If it were an ordinary person, it would be impossible to write down the speech script and achieve the level of unscripted speech, which would take four or five days. But Qiao Ruida is a systematic person after all. She opened the golden finger, took a few photos of the speech, and burned the entire text into her mind. Not to mention memorizing it backwards, at least there was no problem in speaking without a script.

"I'm telling you, Lao Shao, you're not the keynote speaker at the conference just because you can't remember these speeches, right?"

Shao Heping touched his nose awkwardly and muttered in a low voice: "I haven't been interested in Chinese since I was in school. In the college entrance examination, all other subjects scored 140 or above, but only Chinese failed. Now you ask me to memorize a speech of tens of thousands of words. Manuscript, isn’t this embarrassing?”

"Okay, okay, this is the first new car launch conference. I will be the keynote speaker, so you can show off. But this time only, for the next launch conference, you, the general manager of the company, must personally wear it. It's time to go into battle and be the keynote speaker. Come on, take me to the auditorium to get familiar with the venue in advance." Qiao Ruida stood up, patted Shao Heping on the shoulder, and encouraged.

"Okay, Mr. Qiao, let's drive the battery car there. It's a bit far away."

Shao Heping and Qiao Ruida went downstairs together and got into a white battery patrol car. Unlike ordinary patrol cars, this car has no steering wheel, accelerator and brakes. After Shao Heping got into the car, he said to the center console, "Chitu, take me to the auditorium."

"Okay, sir, please sit still and hold yourself tight. Red Rabbit No. 6 will start immediately, and the destination is the auditorium."

The next moment, the patrol car started on its own, accelerated slowly, and flexibly turned to avoid obstacles and pedestrians while driving. Qiao Ruida watched the patrol car driving on the road in the factory area with interest and asked, "This is the fully autonomous patrol car you mentioned in your monthly report."

"Yes, this patrol car may not look small, but its technical content is not low at all. It is equipped with six cameras, two microwave radars, and an ultrasonic obstacle avoidance radar. With a powerful on-board processor, it can ensure It can realize LV20 level autonomous driving function within 5 kilometers per hour. This is something that Ruida Technology R&D Department and our company’s autonomous driving R&D team have jointly developed for half a year. How about it, it’s not bad at the moment. It's like a playful little kid showing off his new toy to his friends.

Qiao Ruida stared at the moving patrol car for a while, then shook her head and said: "The driving speed is too slow, and the obstacle avoidance reaction is also a bit slow, so it has little practical value. Sell it to a courier company and use it as an automatic delivery vehicle." , are all unqualified.”

Shao Heping spread his hands helplessly and said: "We also want to increase the speed of the car, but the current car computer chip has insufficient computing power. Once the speed exceeds 20 kilometers per hour, the amount of information that needs to be processed is too much, which is far beyond the limit. Even if the processing power of the car chip is reduced and the information processing problem is handed over to the server cluster through wireless networking, there will still be problems of excessive delay and slow response.”

"Well, there is almost no solution to the problem of computing power at this stage. Even with the M1 processor of Reda notebook, the computing power is far from enough. We can only wait for the next big jump in chip technology to completely solve the problem of insufficient computing power. "Qiao Ruida is a born-again person who knows the development trajectory of automobiles in the next few decades. At least before 2030, no mass-produced car will achieve LV5 level autonomous driving.

Five minutes later, the patrol car stopped in front of the renovated auditorium. The predecessor of Ruida Automobile Factory is Decheng Automobile Factory, which has a long history of building the factory. The auditorium in front of you is still a product of the 1970s and 1980s, and it has a strong imprint of the times. This auditorium is a blue brick concrete building with two floors, with a height of at least ten meters. The original mottled walls have been fully repaired, and the front is even inlaid with ceramic tiles, which shine brightly in the sun. The original wooden doors and windows have all been replaced with aluminum alloy doors and windows, giving the old auditorium a somewhat modern feel. However, the concrete relief five-pointed star and red flag above the gate have all been retained, and the red slogans on both sides of the gate have not been covered, so the historical atmosphere has basically been preserved.

Qiao Ruida and Shao Heping got out of the car and walked into the auditorium. At this time, the press conference is about to be held, and some staff are debugging equipment and setting up lights. (End of chapter)
