Chapter 471 Xingyi Semiconductor's trump card, self-developed system (asking for monthly votes)
"Mr. Wang, if we want 500 million sets, what's the price?" asked Lao Huang.

"500 million sets... I'll give you the base price of 235 yuan!"

Wang Yi knew that this was the limit of Meizu, so he gave the lowest price directly.

HTC: 600 million units, shipments will start in February, 2 per unit.

Meizu's 500 million units will be shipped starting in April, also at 4 yuan per unit.

There's only two months left, and there's no price reduction at all.

In July, when Snapdragon 7 starts to be supplied on a large scale and Kunpeng 800 is launched, Kunpeng 902 will become the sub-flagship and the price will be reduced again.

By then, the volume of 500 million will be reduced to 215, and the volume of 300 million will be reduced to 235.

If you place an order directly for 215 million pieces, Wang Yi can give you a price of now!
To put it bluntly, the more you buy, the more you can enjoy the discount after the price reduction in advance!

But unfortunately, apart from Xingyi Technology, Apple, Samsung and Nokia, no other brand can achieve annual sales of over 10 million for a single smartphone.

Even HTC can't do it.

"Okay, Mr. Wang, we want 500 million!" Mr. Huang said decisively.

"Old Huang..." Old Bai's face changed drastically and he wanted to stop it. With such a large volume, Meizu would need a year to digest it.

Huang waved his hand and said, "Kunpeng 702 is very powerful and has an integrated baseband. Let's work hard and try to digest it in eight months."

"Okay then." Lao Bai didn't know what to say anymore. Everyone wants to make progress.

"Mr. Wang, regarding chip tuning and technical services, I wonder if Xingyi Technology can provide them? We are willing to pay for them." Mr. Huang said with a smile.

Buying the chip is one thing, and how to tune it is another.

What’s even worse is that many chip manufacturers are not able to tune the chip well and don’t have the level!
On the contrary, Xingyi Technology’s training is very thorough.

For example, HTC one x and xphone 2 both use the same chip, NVIDIA Tegra 3.

HTC one x was jointly tuned by NVIDIA and HTC team, but it turned out to be a failure. Once it gets hot, the core will be locked and the frequency will be reduced, which is especially terrible in summer.

The xphone 2 was tuned by Xingyi Technology itself, and the result is an amazing performance. It can run all four cores even in the hot summer!

Powerful ones don’t look like the same processor!

This is also the reason why Meizu set its sights on Xingyi Technology.

Powerful chips + powerful tuning equals terrifying performance.

The 2 of Meizu MX4412 was specially tuned for Meizu by a team of engineers sent by Samsung.

But the performance is average, the heat is serious, and the core has to be locked and the frequency is reduced.

Meizu can't force anything in this regard, after all, Samsung's own S3 also performs poorly.

To put it bluntly, it’s not that Samsung is hiding something, it’s that Samsung is not strong enough and doesn’t have the technology at all.

Now that it has turned to Xingyi Technology, it will take Meizu several months to adjust the system on its own, and there is a high probability that it will not be adjusted well. If Xingyi Technology takes action directly, it will be easy.

After all, the strength of Xingyi Technology is well known to everyone.

Chip tuning technology is Xingyi Semiconductor's killer feature!

As for Kunpeng 702, Xingyi Technology has been using it for several months and is very adept at tuning it.

Wang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Okay. As for the technical service fee, it will be 5 yuan per mobile phone. For your 500 million chips, that's 2500 million yuan."

"2500 million, no problem!" Old Huang agreed readily.

I spent 702 yuan on a Kunpeng 235, so I really don't mind the 5 yuan tuning service fee.

Without these five yuan, if the Kunpeng 702 is not properly tuned, it will not be able to perform well, causing the MX3 to be poor in performance and sales to plummet, which will be a greater loss.

And Meizu was badly criticized.

With the tuning of Xingyi Technology, the Meizu MX3 has powerful performance and its sales will also increase, so it can definitely make more money.

Subsequently, the two parties signed a contract, and Meizu purchased 235 million sets of Kunpeng 5 SOC at a unit price of 500 yuan + 702 yuan technical service fee, a total of 12 billion!
Starting from April, Xingyi Semiconductor delivered 4 Kunpeng 65 SOCs to Meizu every month, and the delivery was completed in 702 months.

Of course, the samples were taken back by Meizu in January for research and development and adaptation of MX3.

After MX3 was adapted, Xingyi Technology sent a team to carry out the final algorithm tuning to make Kunpeng 702 more powerful.

This way there will be no problem when it is released in June.

At this point, Meizu officially switched from the Samsung camp to the Xingyi Semiconductor camp and became Xingyi Semiconductor's second largest customer.

On the way back, Mr. Huang couldn't help but say, "Meizu will use Xingyi Technology's chips in the future, which is also good. The price is lower than Qualcomm, and it also integrates the baseband. Samsung's dual quad-core 5410 doesn't even have a baseband."

Samsung's 5410, 5420, and 5430 do not have basebands.

It was not until September 2014 that the Orion 9 of Samsung Note 4 integrated the baseband, but it was not a full-network baseband.

It can be said that Samsung is also lagging behind in terms of baseband.

It is precisely because Samsung does not have the CDMA patent and cannot achieve full network baseband, so Samsung has to use Qualcomm chips in the global market and Samsung chips in South Korea.

There is no other way. Qualcomm gives away chips when you buy a baseband. It is better to buy Qualcomm chips directly than to buy a Qualcomm baseband alone.

In 2016, Samsung planned to abandon the ARM public version architecture like Qualcomm and started to "develop its own architecture" (modify the ARM architecture). Later, it developed the Exynos9810 and 9820 with the Mongoose architecture.

But it is far inferior to the Snapdragon and Kirin of the same generation, and users jointly sued it to demand a chip replacement.

In the end, Samsung had to completely abandon its self-developed architecture and could no longer be compared with Qualcomm.

Lao Bai agrees: "In comparison, Kunpeng 702 directly integrates the baseband, which is the best choice for Meizu. In addition, Xingyi Technology provides tuning, so our chip tuning team can reduce investment and focus more on system optimization."

"That's fine. It's a lot of money to keep them, but they don't know how to tune the chip. It's better to just pay Xingyi Technology to do it."

Old Huang nodded: "Xingyi Technology charges 5 yuan for a mobile phone tuning fee, which is great value for money and not expensive."

"Yes." The two quickly reached an agreement and directly transferred the chip tuning team to system optimization.

There is no way. Meizu is still a small company with limited resources these days.

Samsung, Qualcomm, and Nvidia are not good at high-end technology such as chip tuning, and Meizu does not think it can do it either.

“MX2 has to be released as soon as possible. After releasing MX2, we should polish MX3 as soon as possible!” said Lao Huang.

"Okay, then we'll release the MX2 at the end of January and put it on the market as soon as possible in mid-February."

"Sure. Many domestic mobile phone manufacturers will release new models soon. It will be beneficial for us to do so in advance. We should hurry up and sell the MX2. In the second half of the year, the MX3 equipped with Kunpeng 702 will play a major role!"

After Old Huang finished speaking, Old Bai did not respond, but looked straight out the window.

Old Huang followed Old Bai's gaze and saw a man in a suit pulling a suitcase, walking on the street like a beggar.

"There are so many frustrated people in the imperial capital." Lao Bai sighed.

Old Huang shook his head: "No, he is not an ordinary person."

"Who is that?"

"Fu Yonghong!"

"It's him?"

"It's him!" Old Huang nodded. "I saw him on Douyin some time ago. He joined Xingyi Semiconductor, got a Beijing hukou, used Xingyi Technology's down payment to buy a house with an internal discount group purchase, and then switched to AMD. As a result, Xingyi Technology demanded liquidated damages. AMD also rejected him, and he ended up like this."

"Serves him right!" Lao Bai sighed with emotion: "Can't you just stay at Xingyi Technology and make money? Why did you have to do this?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. Some people just live in the past and look down on mainland companies."

Huang said meaningfully: "Just like Fu Yonghong, who always thinks AMD is a big company, but he doesn't know that Xingyi Technology has already surpassed AMD."

"Indeed, AMD is not as good as Intel in the CPU field, and not as good as Nvidia in the graphics card field. However, Xingyi Technology has become the industry leader in smartphones, SOC chip design, tablets, TVs, and smart homes."

“Not only that, but AI interaction, video platforms, clothing, etc. are all No. 1. Even in the social field, Changliao has crushed WeChat, and it is only a matter of time before its daily active users surpass QQ.”

"Yes, Xingyi Technology is amazing. How can AMD compare to Xingyi Technology? This Fu Yonghong is not very smart."

"He just can't let go of his prejudices, or maybe his brain is broken, he can't keep up with the times, he still lives in the past and looks down on mainland companies. Plus, he has a bad character and a bad reputation, so it's natural that no one wants to hire him."

The two talked about it and both sighed.

Fu Yonghong’s current situation is indeed a bit miserable.

He had spent all his money and was kicked out of the inn.

The headhunters paid him but didn't find him a job, which made Fu Yonghong a homeless man:

"If I had known this would happen, I would not have paid back the money to those people."

Fu Yonghong regretted it deeply.

Before, he boasted that he was an outstanding semiconductor talent, an industry elite, and a social elite, and that he cared most about his reputation.

When I borrowed money from relatives and friends to buy a house, I was also charged an interest rate of 4%.

After all, a family needs three or five hundred thousand yuan, and if they borrow it for several years, people will not be willing to lend it to them without paying interest.

Therefore, after the house was transferred to Xingyi Technology and he received the money, Fu Yonghong repaid all the 200 million he had borrowed.

Otherwise, the interest of 4% per month would be more than yuan, which is not a small amount.

Since I won’t be using it anyway, there’s no need to pay interest every month.

Unexpectedly, after paying back all the money, I couldn’t find a job.

Now, the debt is gone, the money is gone, and I’m sleeping on the streets.

"It's all that damn AMD that kicked me out!"

"And the damn headhunter took the money but didn't arrange a job for me. That's too much!"

"Still hiding from me!"

“What an unscrupulous agent!”

“It’s a rip-off!”

"ungrateful!"

Fu Yonghong became angrier and angrier, and went to the headhunting company again.

When the security guard Lao Zhang saw that it was him, he was overwhelmed and quickly stepped forward to stop him:
"Mr. Fu, Manager Huang is not in the company. Please come back tomorrow."

"Not in the company?" Fu Yonghong was furious: "Every time I come, he's not here. I think he's just trying to avoid me!"

"Humph! You took my money but didn't recommend a job to me. This is a scam! You are an unscrupulous agency!"

"I'm going to sue you!"

"He's really not here!" the guard said in embarrassment.

"He's not here, right? I think your doorman is pretty good, so I'll stay with your doorman and wait for him to come!"

As he spoke, Fu Yonghong picked up his suitcase and went straight to the guard's office.

"Hey, Mr. Fu, don't do this, don't do this!"

“That’s my job!”

The security guard Lao Zhang was completely stupefied. He had finally found such a job, so he shouldn't let this bastard take it away.
But Fu Yonghong was very strong. He pushed Lao Zhang away and rushed in directly.

The message room is not big, but the warm air from the air conditioner is very comfortable, much better than sleeping in the open air in the twelfth lunar month.

Unable to find a job and without money for accommodation, Fu Yonghong simply threw his suitcase aside and sat down on the security guard's stool.

He stared at the lunch box on the table, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating. Seeing this scene, the security guard Lao Zhang was dumbfounded: "Mr. Fu, that's my lunch! If you eat it, I will be hungry."

Fu Yonghong glanced at Lao Zhang and said, "Look at your big belly. You must have three highs. It will be good for you to eat less."

The corner of Lao Zhang's mouth twitched: "..."

"Don't even eat dinner, just give it to me!"

Old Zhang was stunned: "!!!
"Fuck, is this guy starving?"

Old Zhang was completely dumbfounded and could only call Huang Feng: "Manager Huang, please come quickly, that guy is crazy. If you don't come, he will stay in our communication room and won't leave!"

"Damn it!" Huang Feng was also overwhelmed and could only rush over in a hurry.

Fu Yonghong continued to eat his takeaway until he finished, took a piece of paper, wiped his mouth, and then turned around:

"Manager Huang, are you here?"

"Yes, Mr. Fu."

"What about work?"

"Mr. Fu, it's not that I'm not willing to do the job because I'm paid. It's that your request is too high. We really can't arrange an annual salary of 300,000 yuan."

Huang Feng looked melancholy. "I contacted all the companies I could find, but when they heard it was you, they either hung up or rejected you outright. Even worse, some even said they didn't want an annual salary of 300,000, let alone 30,000."

Fu Yonghong's mouth twitched: "..."

"Why?" Fu Yonghong was puzzled: "Before, Xingyi Technology gave me 40, and AMD gave me 50!"

"Mr. Fu, you also said that, that was before."

"As the saying goes, things change over time. Before, you did have an annual salary of 400,000 or 500,000 yuan, and big companies were scrambling to hire you. But now, to put it bluntly, no one wants you even at 40,000 yuan!"

Huang Feng said helplessly, he was also afraid of being harassed.

"How could this happen?" Fu Yonghong was furious and even more confused.

The depreciation rate is so fast that even stocks don’t fall this fast!
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Huang Feng said helplessly.

"True?"

"Okay, I'll tell you then."

"But it doesn't matter!"

"First of all, you resigned from Xingyi Technology after obtaining your Hukou, and were fired by AMD. This incident has made your reputation tarnished. Large companies are very concerned about their image and do not want senior executives with stains."

"Second, your previous outrageous behavior has caused all companies to think that you have a problem with your character. And no matter which company you go to, you will be in an important position, developing core technologies."

"If you have a questionable character, which company would dare to let you hold an important position? To develop core technologies?"

"We are all worried that you will sell the company's core technology just because of a small favor from your competitor!"

"I..." Fu Yonghong's face instantly fell, and his original arrogance was gone.

I see, it’s a credibility issue, a character issue, a reputation issue!
If it's an ordinary position, it's okay.

However, in 2013, senior executives in semiconductor R&D had an annual salary of to yuan, which was the most core position.

For this kind of position, no one dares to hire someone with questionable character.

As for going to small businesses...that's even more unrealistic.

He is developing computer CPUs. Which small company can develop its own CPU?

To put it bluntly, companies that can develop CPUs are all large companies with strong financial resources.

Either they are giants like Intel, AMD, and Xingyi Technology, or they are large companies like Loongson Technology established by the Imperial Capital and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

If you don't have a little bit of strength, you dare not even work on CPU.

Big companies don't need young talents like him, and they dare not hire people with questionable character.

"It turns out that I was the one who narrowed the road!"

Fu Yonghong murmured, his expression extremely gloomy.

Huang Feng also sighed: "Mr. Fu, don't blame us. I have been worrying about you and have been on the move a lot. But there is really nothing we can do."

"I don't blame you." Fu Yonghong sighed.

"Mr. Fu, I'm glad you understand!" Huang Feng was overjoyed, but he was only happy for two minutes before Fu Yonghong changed the subject: "Can I get a refund?"

Huang Feng's mouth twitched: "..."

He waved his hand decisively: "That can't be possible. I have also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in your matter."

Fu Yonghong was silent, then said nothing and just sat there.

The meaning is very simple. If you don’t return my money, I won’t leave!
Huang Feng was overwhelmed, and the security guard Lao Zhang was also confused.

He was afraid that the property management would lay him off and give the job to Fu Yonghong.

Huang Feng had no choice but to take out two Mao Zedong notes and said, "Mr. Fu, here are two hundred yuan. Can you find a hotel to stay in? The environment in this reception room is too bad."

Fu Yonghong took the money without saying anything, then looked at the security guard, Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang was depressed: "It's really fucked up. I'm just a security guard, but I have to deal with a scoundrel like you!"

"That's all. Here you go, go!"

Lao Zhang searched for a while, and found a 20-yuan note, two 10-yuan notes, and two 50-yuan notes. He collected yuan and handed it to Fu Yonghong:
"Brother, you are the boss, and I am just a security guard, can you please not embarrass me?"

Fu Yonghong looked at the 250 yuan in his hand, stood up, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is settled!"

Huang Feng was delighted and quickly opened the door: "Mr. Fu, thank you!"

Seeing Fu Yonghong leaving, the guard was also very excited: "Fuck, he finally left!"

"I only make 70 yuan a day, and now I'm out of 50 yuan. No, all 70 yuan is gone. He ate all my lunch boxes. Manager Huang, what do you think of this..."

Huang Feng's mouth twitched: "!!!"

I had to say, "Don't worry, if there's a good job waiting in line at the sales office in the future, I'll let you know. Go there and sit and drink tea, it'll be at least 100 yuan!"

"Okay, be sure to notify me so that we can make up for today's losses." Old Zhang was delighted.

At this time, Fu Yonghong, who had not walked far, retreated back.

Huang Feng and Lao Zhang's faces changed drastically: "..."

"Don't be nervous, I just want to say that if there is a good job in queuing in the future, take me with you." Fu Yonghong grinned.

Huang Feng: “…”

Lao Zhang: "..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Fu, I have your contact information and will definitely notify you!"

"Thank you. Um...are there any other ways to make money? These 250 can only support me for four days at most."

Huang Feng thought for a while and said, "Ele.me is recruiting riders. Do you want to give it a try? Earning 40,000 yuan a year is not a dream!"

"I tried, but they didn't want me. They said I was on the system blacklist."

Huang Feng: “…”

"Then you can go and drive AutoNavi... Never mind, AutoNavi is also owned by Xingyi Technology. You're probably cheated too!"

Fu Yonghong's mouth twitched: "..."

Xingyi Technology’s blacklisting of him is a group-wide blacklist, and he is no longer allowed to drive for AutoNavi Taxi or deliver food.

Huang Feng sighed: "Mr. Fu, you know your current situation. It will be difficult for you to stay in the imperial capital. It is better to return to Taiwan."

"I can't go back!" Fu Yonghong was full of melancholy.

"Why? Your family is over there."

"Family? Haha." A bitter look appeared on Fu Yonghong's lips. "Before I came to Xingyi Technology, I had an annual salary of 400,000 yuan, my wife loved me, and my children kissed me. Now I can't find a job, and they all don't want me anymore."

Huang Feng: “…”

Lao Zhang: "..."

"It's better if I don't go back. If I go back, my wife will file for divorce with me!"

"This..." Huang Feng was silent.

Lao Zhang didn't know what to say.

But understand, these are all facts.

The husband can make a lot of money, the couple is harmonious, and the family is happy.

If the husband loses his job and cannot find a job, then the situation becomes different: the wife and children will be separated.

What’s more, Fu Yonghong not only lost his job, but also lost all his savings of many years, and his reputation was ruined, so he could not survive.

He originally planned to keep it a secret from his wife, but now everyone knows about it. Many people have exposed it on TikTok, and the media has also reported it...

The wife had already received the reward and asked for a divorce directly.

Now Fu Yonghong is dragging his feet and refusing to go back, as if he has some thoughts in mind.

Once I go back, I will divorce immediately.

"If you have a job that requires you to wait in line and get paid, remember to call me."

Fu Yonghong said this, picked up his suitcase, and walked away unsteadily.

Looking at Fu Yonghong's receding back, Huang Feng couldn't help but sigh:
"He was clearly a man of high rank and had a promising future, but he ended up playing such a good hand so badly."

Lao Zhang agreed: "That's right, look at how he lives, he's not as well off as I am. Although I only make 2000 yuan a month, it's enough for me to spend."

Huang Feng was furious. "Nonsense! You are a native of the capital. You have a household registration and a house. I envy you. You are a security guard just because you are bored."

"Hahaha." Lao Zhang laughed embarrassedly:

"You're right. Being a security guard can earn you money for cigarettes and food. Seeing you working overtime every day, leaving home early and returning late, in order to earn money to buy a house, I really feel that I'm very happy. I already have a hukou in the capital, and I was given two houses after the house was demolished."

"Fuck!" Huang Feng wanted to curse. This was too arrogant!
"Wait, household registration!" Huang Feng's eyes lit up: "Yes, Mr. Fu has a household registration in the capital. He can make money by helping people get registered through fake marriages!"

In response, Huang Feng chased after him directly: “Mr. Fu, wait, I’ve thought of your way to wealth!”

"???" The guard was stunned: "Fake marriage to make money? Is that okay? How about I do one too?"

"My wife and I both have household registrations. We can earn two sums at once! Isn't that a big fortune?"

"Forget it. What if the whole fork gets chopped off, my wife runs away with someone else, and I lose my house!"

"An old man named Sun from the village married a female college student from another place. He was so proud all day long that he showed off to everyone he met. In the end, the house was demolished and she got a hukou. They filed for divorce and got a house."

"People, just can't be too greedy."

"It's not worth it. It's safer to be a security guard."

The next day, Wang Yi came to the system development department:
"Yang Yan, how is the development of the XOS system going?"

"Chairman, the XOS system for mobile phones is progressing rapidly. It has reached the second stage. It is a self-developed system that is compatible with the Android ecosystem and can be launched at any time."

"The TV version of XOS has reached the third stage. It is a pure native system that is completely incompatible with Android. It has been fully developed and all self-developed. In addition, all software and games under Xingyi Technology and Mayu Technology are compatible with the XOS system!"
