Chapter 503: Xphone 2 Pro released, Cook is upset (please subscribe)
"It's okay. Everything is difficult at the beginning. It's already excellent that we can make Kirin 910."

The smile on Yu Dong's face froze and he sighed:
"I believe in your capabilities and HiSilicon's capabilities. We will soon be able to develop a more powerful new processor!"

He Ting was also helpless: "President Yu, HiSilicon and Xingyi Semiconductor are still different. Most of our people are domestic semiconductor elites, polishing and researching from scratch. Xingyi Semiconductor directly poached R&D experts and junior R&D experts from Texas Instruments, as well as a group of elites."

Yu Dong nodded: "Yes, HiSilicon developed chips from scratch. Xingyi Semiconductor started developing chips from the giant Texas Instruments."

"Their starting point is much higher than ours, at least several generations ahead."

"That's right. Everyone knows Texas Instruments' chip R&D strength. They are number one. Qualcomm is no match for them."

"Wang Yi was lucky. He happened to be poaching Texas Instruments when it completely abandoned its mobile chip business due to CDMA baseband issues. Texas Instruments was able to save a lot of layoff subsidies, so it was naturally happy to see it happen."

"The people inside Xingyi Semiconductor are all from Texas Instruments, and their R&D system is also inspired by or even follows that of Texas Instruments."

Yu Dong frowned: "Then why doesn't Texas Instruments sue Xingyi Semiconductor for plagiarism or infringement?"

He Ting waved her hand: "No way. Don't forget, Williams developed 32-bit processors at Texas Instruments, and when he came to Xingyi Technology, he developed 64-bit processors. It's a completely new thing. Texas Instruments hasn't even made a 64-bit processor, so how can you say Xingyi Technology copied it? Infringement?"

"This..." Yu Dong was speechless for a moment.

He Ting continued, "More importantly, if Texas Instruments makes a fuss about this, wouldn't it let everyone know that the dominant chip industry leader, Texas Instruments, is not as good as the up-and-coming company, Xingyi Semiconductor? Texas Instruments can't afford to lose this person for making a 64-bit processor that even Texas Instruments hasn't made, so they can only pretend that nothing happened."

Yu Dong's expression was extremely complicated: "As expected of Director Wang, he never makes mistakes in his work."

"Yes, Mr. Wang is a formidable opponent, but also an opponent worthy of admiration." He Ting was filled with emotion: "He gave up the mainstream 32-bit processor at the beginning, disregarded the risks, and went all-in on the 64-bit processor. He is really amazing."

"If it were me, I wouldn't dare to take such a gamble."

Yu Dong nodded: "I don't dare either. If there is a problem with ARM's new 64-bit architecture, the billions of R&D funds invested will be wasted."

"Who would have thought that Xingyi Semiconductor would succeed and win a great victory! ARM's 64-bit architecture is so powerful that Kunpeng 702 has even become a legend."

"So, Mr. Wang is a formidable yet respectable opponent." He Ting's expression was extremely complicated:
"There is no shortage of gamblers in this world. What is lacking is people who can win every time. And Wang Yi seems to be such a person."

"The one who always wins the bet..."

Yu Dong was stunned. It would be a lie to say he wasn't envious: "I am looking forward to the Xphone 2 Pro. I wonder what major changes will come out. Will there be a new generation of processors?"

He Ting shook her head. "That's not good enough. Kunpeng 702 is already powerful enough. With the 64-bit XOS system, it has a 60% improvement. It is more powerful than the next-generation flagship processors of Qualcomm and Samsung. There is no need to rush to release the next generation."

"Moreover, 64-bit is a brand new architecture, which is not so easy to develop. Kunpeng 702 uses the A53 small core, which is easy to tune. I guess Williams initially developed Kunpeng 702 as a mid-range processor, but did not expect that it would be so powerful and directly become a high-end processor."

"Yes, if it was originally developed as a high-end processor, Kunpeng 702 would have used the A57 large core." Yu Dong was speechless: "This is really good luck, the performance of the 64-bit small core is almost catching up with the 32-bit large core."

"Yeah, luck is something you can't really explain. But Xingyi Technology's next-generation flagship must use the A57 big core, which is difficult. If things go wrong, it might fail and won't be released so quickly."

"I see." Yu Dong suddenly realized: "Then can't our Kirin 910 be made into 64-bit?"

He is really jealous of the terrifying bonus of 64-bit.

He Ting was somewhat helpless: "President Yu, Xingyi Semiconductor's R&D team are all core members of Texas Instruments. They are strong and experienced. Our HiSilicon team's R&D team is still relatively... immature, um... there is still a lot of room for improvement..."

"It's also 64-bit, even if it's the A53 small core, Xingyi Technology took one year to complete the Kunpeng 702, but it took us two years. But can you wait?"

"Two years! I can't wait." Yu Dong was helpless.

Two years later, Huawei phones are probably no longer popular.

"So we can only continue with 32-bit, which is easier and we are familiar with it and have experience with it."

He Ting said: "As for the 64-bit flagship processor to be launched in two years, it may have to use the A57 large core, which will be even more difficult. If we continue to use the A53 small core, it will still be invincible this year and may be okay next year, but it will definitely not keep up with the times when it is launched the year after. Unless there is a completely new architecture!"

Yu Dong understood.

Huawei is in a hurry to use processors. Next year's Kirin 910 can only be 32-bit, and 920 must also be 32-bit.

The 64-bit Kirin 930 will only be available in the market the year after next.

"But by the end of next year, we may be able to release a mid-range 64-bit processor, and the flagship one will be the year after," He Ting added.

"Okay." Yu Dong knew that this matter could not be rushed, and the HiSilicon department was already working very hard.

Now the entire HiSilicon department is stimulated by Xingyi Semiconductor. 996 is not enough, and some people even work 007!

There is no way. Xingyi Semiconductor’s achievements are so outstanding that it seems that HiSilicon is not working hard enough.

"If the processor is not updated, then what is the selling point of xphone 2pro? I am even more curious!" Yu Dong said meaningfully.

The biggest shock he got from the Xphone 1 was its groundbreaking design and freeze-proof battery!
Only then did Yu Dong realize that a mobile phone could be designed so elegantly.

The battery can also prevent freezing and will not shut down in winter!

The biggest shock of xphone 1pro is that it is the world's first quad-core mobile phone, with algorithm tuning and heat dissipation module, which can make Nvidia Tegra 3 so cool! And the unprecedented beauty algorithm.

The Xphone 2 is even better, with 10W fast charging and subsequent self-developed processors...

As for the upcoming xphone 2pro, Yu Dong is really curious.

"You'll know when it's released." He Ting said calmly, "Since we have Yu, why do we need Liang?"

Yu Dong was silent: "..."

Without Xingyi Technology, Huawei's self-developed processors would be invincible in the field of domestic mobile phones.

But with Xingyi Technology, Huawei is not so prominent.

"The road ahead is long and arduous, but I will continue to explore." He Ting changed the subject: "I'll leave the phone to you and the chip to me, and we'll work hard together!"

"Okay!" Yu Dong rekindled his fighting spirit.

Yu Dong has a technical background. His innovative and outstanding contributions in the fields of communications and base stations made him stand out in Huawei. He was valued by Mr. Ren and became one of Huawei's core senior executives.

To put it bluntly, Yu Dong doesn't take ordinary people seriously even though they have strong technical skills and understand management.

But He Ting is an exception.

He Ting, a master of semiconductor physics who graduated from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications in the 90s, is the technical president of Huawei's 2012 Laboratory, president of HiSilicon Semiconductor, member of Huawei's board of directors, attending executive director, and director of Huawei's scientist committee...

It can be said that without He Ting, HiSilicon’s future is uncertain.

Yu Dong would be impressed by such an existence.

Words of encouragement to each other also carry more weight.

On April 4, Xingyi Technology’s spring conference arrived as scheduled.

It is still the Mayu exhibition building, but the difference is that the Mayu Technology Park has been fully built.

Many core departments are gathered here, making the originally desolate Dongjiao of Jeju become the Zhongguancun of Jeju!
Various media gathered at the scene.

The CEOs of major mobile phone brands also gathered in the conference room to watch the live broadcast of the press conference together.

Even Apple Chairman Cook chose to stay up late to watch the live broadcast.

There is no way around it. Cook will suffer from insomnia whenever Xingyi Technology holds a press conference.

If you don’t watch the press conference of Xingyi Technology and don’t understand what Xingyi Technology has released, you will not be able to sleep.

It has become a habit.

The same is true for other Apple executives, who are staying up late to watch the live broadcast to see what new things Xingyi Technology will come up with.

The same is true for Qualcomm Chairman Jacobs and other senior executives.

It can be said that the grassroots employees of Apple and Qualcomm were all soundly sleeping, but the chairman and senior executives were collectively suffering from insomnia and staying up late to watch live broadcasts, fearing that Xingyi Technology would come up with something big that would subvert the industry again.

The difference is that this time, the chairman of Google is also suffering from insomnia!

I also stayed up late to watch the live broadcast of Xingyi Technology's new product launch conference:

“I hope that this time Xingyi Technology will only release new phones or new processors, and never push the XOS system on mobile phones, otherwise Android will lose hundreds of millions of users in one fell swoop!”

But whatever you fear, will come to you.

As soon as the press conference started, Wang Yi sent Google!

Wang Yi walked onto the stage and said, “Thank you all for coming to Xingyi Technology’s spring conference.”

“This press conference doesn’t have much content, but it’s full of useful information.”

"First, the strategic core deployment of Xingyi Technology, the XOS system!"

"In January, we released the world's first 64-bit mobile operating system, XOS TV system. With its smooth experience and 60% performance improvement, it has won the support of many users and application developers."

"In the past three months, many application manufacturers have adapted to the XOS system."

"As of now, there are more than 5000 native applications on XOS, which basically covers all mainstream applications, and the number is increasing rapidly every day!"

As he spoke, Wang Yi waved his hand, and a dense array of APP icons appeared on the large screen behind him.

These are the applications that are adapted to the XOS system.

"Wow!" Thunderous applause resounded throughout the venue.

Everyone was excited:

"In three months, more than 5000 apps have been adapted! Wow, XOS is going to be a success."

"That's amazing. They've only made so many in three months. If time permits, won't they be able to defeat Android?"

"There is no other way. The 64-bit XOS is 32% more powerful than the 60-bit Android. It is a cross-generational crusher. Users like it, so app vendors naturally have to compete to adapt it."

"I guess Google is having a hard time sleeping and eating, hahaha."

Sure enough, Google Chairman Eric frowned:
"In just three months, more than 5000 native applications have been adapted, and most of them are mainstream applications. The rise of the XOS system is unstoppable!"

It is true that there are more apps for Android and IOS now, both numbering in the hundreds of thousands.

But those are global applications, and many of them cannot be used in Xia Country at all.

And there are many junk applications.

On the contrary, there are only a few thousand truly valuable mainstream applications.

When it comes to mobile software, quantity is not as important as quality.

Especially Android applications, many of which are counterfeit, have security risks and are of little value.

The XOS system's more than 5000 mainstream applications fully meet the needs of domestic users.

Wang Yi continued: "XOS system, as a closed system, guarantees absolute security. The more than 64 native applications on the shelves are all high-quality applications that have been reviewed by Xingyi Technology and do not pose any security risks. Moreover, they are all 60-bit applications. On the XOS system, the performance can be improved by % compared to Android!"

Applause resounded throughout the audience again.

Security and efficiency are the advantages of the XOS system.

“Today, April 4, the XOS system mobile and tablet versions are fully online!”

"Whether it's Xphone 1, Xphone 1 Pro, or Xphone 2, as well as the X1, X1 Pro, and X1 Ultra, all have the new XOS system."

"Users can open the system APP of Xingyi mobile phones, Xingyi tablets, and Xingyi TVs, and then click on the XOS system for intelligent upgrades."

"Before upgrading, personal privacy data will be synchronized to the user's Xingyi Cloud data. After upgrading, it will be synchronized back to the terminal device to ensure that the data is not lost." "And what is synchronized is not only basic data such as contacts, memos, text messages, alarms, reminders, etc., but also game data from Xingyi Game Center, which will be synchronized intelligently."

"Even for stand-alone games at Xingyi Game Center, no data will be lost, so don't worry."

Thunderous applause sounded again.

When playing games, the biggest fear is data loss.

After working hard for several months, as soon as I upgraded the system, all my data was gone. I almost wanted to die.

The Starry Game Center will synchronously back up game data to the cloud server, so it will not be lost even if the XOS system is upgraded.

Of course, there is nothing we can do about the game data from third-party gaming platforms.

Xingyi Technology is also unable to back up third-party platforms.

"In addition, Xiao Ai can help with the upgrade."

As he spoke, Wang Yi took out an Xphone 2: "Xiao Ai."

"Here you are."

"Upgrade the XOS system."

"Okay, Master, I will help you back up your data to the cloud server first, and then start the system upgrade. The upgrade process will take about 15 minutes, please be patient."

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Upgrading the XOS system is that simple."

"Similarly, after upgrading, if you are not used to it, you can click on the system APP again, check Android, and downgrade the system. All data will also be synchronized intelligently."

Hearing this, everyone got excited:

"This feature is great. It eliminates all worries. I will upgrade XOS and try it out."

"Xingyi Technology's cloud service is really good, and the XOS system is even more powerful."

"Can I downgrade back to Android without losing my data? So what are you waiting for? You must upgrade to XOS, it's a 60% improvement!"

"Don't even mention 60%. I've upgraded my Qualcomm processor to a 20% improvement. I've been waiting for XOS to land on my phone for a long time."

Without any worries, everyone started to upgrade the XOS system.

60% performance improvement, totally irresistible.

Even if the older models are not equipped with Kunpeng processors, there will be a 20% improvement after upgrading to the XOS system, which is enough.

Looking at the extremely excited attitude of everyone at the scene, Wang Yi felt relieved.

XOS system is stable!
But the expression on Google's chairman Eric's face was extremely ugly.

The XOS system is really not compatible with Android applications, so you can only choose one or the other.

Either use the XOS system or downgrade back to the Android system.

But with a 60% gap, users would rather change APP than switch back to Android!

"Well, it would be nice if the XOS system was also an Android skin."

"It's still Jack Ma's Alibaba Cloud OS that's so loyal!"

Eric was filled with emotion and wished that the XOS system could be the second Alibaba Cloud.

But unfortunately it is not, not at all!

Not only is it not an Android shell, it is one generation ahead of Android, surpassing Android across generations, with a 60% performance improvement!

Just don't talk about martial arts!
"Next, the second strategic product!"

"xphone 2pro!"

Applause resounded throughout the venue again, and everyone was full of anticipation.

"The Xphone 9, which was released in September last year, has improved its performance after its chip upgrade, and its sales have been far ahead."

"In more than half a year, the total sales of Xphone 2 exceeded 8000 million units!"

"Thank you for your support!"

There was an uproar at the scene: "What? 8000 million units sold in just half a year?"

"Fuck, this is crazy! This is so scary!"

"It's normal. iPhone 5 and Samsung flagships are both beaten by Xphone 2. The parallel import Xphone 2 is sold all over the world."

"Yes, every time I go on a business trip overseas, they ask me to bring a few Xphone 2s with me..."

"If you give Maotai to foreigners, they will be speechless. If you give them an Xphone 2, they will treat you like a dad!"

"Who knows, family members? One of my friend's hometown has a high bride price. He hooked up with a 20-year-old European beauty and got married. The bride price was an Xphone 2."

"Fuck, this works!"

……

Wang Yi continued: "Today, we are launching a new generation of Xingyi mobile phone, Xphone 2 Pro!"

"Like the Xphone 2, the Xphone 2 Pro still has a top-notch 1080P screen, 5.0 inches, which is super cool whether you are watching TV series or playing games."

“The difference is that the sound quality has been improved across the board for a better audio-visual experience!”

"The sound quality chip has been fully upgraded from the previous HIFI chip to the Tianlai M1 hifi chip, and the sound quality has been fully upgraded!"

"It has been upgraded from a single hifi chip to a dual hifi chip, and its resolution is world-class. The world's top tuning masters personally tuned it, and the sound quality is unmatched. Whether it's gaming or audio and video, you can have a better experience."

As he spoke, Wang Yi showed a piece of music and video played on the Xphone 2 Pro, and everyone at the scene was amazed:
"It's amazing. The strength of the M1 chip is really not to be underestimated."

"X55 has an unrivaled sound quality thanks to the M1 HiFi chip. I didn't expect that the Xphone 2 Pro also has it. Awesome, awesome."

"The sound quality of the Xphone 2 is already top-notch, and the Xphone 2 Pro is even more amazing."

Wang Yi continued: "The processor is also the strongest at present, and even in the next one or two years, it will be able to crush the strongest chip of competitors, the Kunpeng 702 SOC!"

"After upgrading the XOS system, Kunpeng 702's already unrivaled performance can be further improved by 60%!"

“Basically, within one or two years, it will be difficult for competitors to come up with products that can compete with ours.”

"The only chip that can beat Xingyi Technology's Kunpeng 702 chip is Xingyi Technology's own next-generation chip!"

Thunderous applause resounded throughout the venue, and the comments were even more explosive:
"Mr. Wang is so powerful! Xingyi Technology is so powerful!"

"The only one who can defeat Xingyi Technology is the next generation of Xingyi Technology! Well said!"

"Arrogant, really arrogant! But Xingyi Technology has the confidence to be arrogant, so damn proud."

"Hahaha, I guess Qualcomm's CEO must be very upset. There's nothing we can do about it. Last year's Kunpeng 702 still beats this year's Qualcomm 800 and next year's Qualcomm 805!"

……

Such arrogant words, but no one questioned it.

Xingyi Technology has the confidence to be so arrogant!

If nothing else, a 60% improvement is at least two generations ahead.

In fact, although the improvement of a new generation of chips is huge, the overall performance is only improved by 20%-30%.

As for the 40% increase, it is just a theoretical numbers game.

On the contrary, for most chips, a 30% improvement is considered good after a generation upgrade.

At Qualcomm headquarters, the conference room is brightly lit.

Chairman Jacob and a group of senior executives were present, but their faces all looked extremely ugly.

Jacob's face turned pale: "Fuck, Xingyi Technology is too arrogant!"

"They actually said that Kunpeng 702 is two generations ahead of Qualcomm. How is that possible?"

"It's fine that the Snapdragon 600 is no match, and the Snapdragon 800 is no match either. How is it possible that next year's Snapdragon 805 is not a match?"

"Is Kunpeng 702 so powerful? One generation can defeat our Qualcomm's three generation flagship?"

But the scene was completely silent.

Finally, it was the vice president who broke the silence:

“董事长，鲲鹏702原本也就比同代的骁龙600强10%，比骁龙800弱20%。”

“但有了XOS系统的64位提升60%，那就反超骁龙800 40%。即便我们下下代骁龙805比起骁龙800再度提升30%，也依旧比64位加成下的鲲鹏702低10%！”

"The problem is not our processor, but the 64-bit architecture and system!"

"Oh!" Jacob was extremely melancholy.

In terms of processor performance, Snapdragon 800 can beat Kunpeng 702.

But with the 64% improvement of 60-bit, it's completely different.

The problem is that a 64-bit processor cannot be produced in a short period of time.

Especially if Qualcomm wants to develop 64-bit, it has to develop the A57 large core, which is more than twice as difficult as the A702 small core of Kunpeng 53.

With Qualcomm's strength, it will take only one year to develop the A53 small-core processor.

However, it will take two years for the A57 large-core processor to be developed, even for Qualcomm, and it may fail.

Snapdragon 810 is an example.

Seeing Jacob's ugly face, the vice president quickly changed the subject:

"From what Wang Yi said, the next generation of Kunpeng processors are already under development. We need to get their progress and development direction as soon as possible."

Jacob nodded: "Okay, let's move this forward as soon as possible. Isn't there a professor who..."

"Chairman, don't worry. I will send some money to that guy's child in the United States in a little while. I will definitely ask him to check it out for us."

"Yeah." Jacob nodded, and was also very curious about how Xingyi Technology would develop its next-generation processor.

How to make the A57 big core successful?

The press conference continued: "The running memory of the Xphone 2 Pro is still the largest 2G running memory at present, which ensures absolutely smooth operation."

"The system is also equipped with the world's first 64-bit mobile operating system XOS system, but the difference is that Xphone 2 Pro has opened up a new unlocking experience - X-Touch, Xingyi fingerprint unlocking!"

All netizens were excited.

But Cook, who was watching the press conference, looked at the iPhone 5s in his hand and his face turned green: "!!!"
