Age of Dreams

In the east, the most famous high-tech development zone.

Spreadtrum is now in the development period.Although the company's area is not large, that is, a few small buildings plus the configuration of laboratories and factories, overall the vitality is very sufficient, at least for now.

As one of the company's founding double-headed snakes, Chen Pin is the company and president, mainly responsible for production and sales.

The company's other founder, Wu Datong, is the company's chief technology officer, mainly responsible for laboratory research and development.

Both of them are friends who came out together in Silicon Valley.The relationship is good, and the division of labor is different.They have been starting a business for several years, and there are few contradictions and deep relationships.

During today's lunch break, the two of them sat together drinking coffee and talking about recent events.

International students who have been to the United States generally have a much higher acceptance of coffee than college students in the mainland, so they drink fresh coffee made from pure coffee beans.

This is different from Qin Yibin.People who have been to Japan prefer to drink tea.

\"Have you seen the article evaluating Xiao Qi published by the Guardian yesterday?\" Chen Pin asked the old man while drinking coffee.

\"Of course I have seen it, how about Xiao Qi is a genius, we are just ordinary people?\" Wu Datong smiled bitterly, \"When I was his age, I was still thinking about how to write love letters to girls Yeah!\"

\"I am about the same.\" Chen Pin smiled, \"Datong, have you noticed that Xiao Qi has a big appetite? Actually swallowed Infineon in one go!\"

\"Yes! If Xiao Qi brings Infineon to the Chinese market, the impact on us will not be small.\" Wu Datong said with his jaw.

No matter how confident and proud he is, he will not think that Spreadtrum, which has only been established a few years ago, will be better than the Siemens semiconductor department that has been developed for decades or even hundreds of years.

Not to mention that it was Xiao Qi who bought Infineon. The money he had was jaw-dropping, enough to support Infineon's rampage and mess up the market.

Spreadtrum focuses on wireless baseband chips, which are integrated chips like MediaTek that Xiao Qi bought before, which happens to be Infineon's strengths.

In the past, Infineon did not pay much attention to the Chinese market, but if the owner becomes Xiao Qi, who has been involved in the mobile phone industry, then it is not necessarily true.

\"Can you think of something?\" Chen Pin asked him.

\"For a while. Where can I find a way?\" Wu Datong sighed and said: \"The gap in strength is irreparable. Our exhibition news is still too weak. There is too little accumulation!\"

\"In this era when the Western world has severely blocked wireless baseband chips, we are proud of our current achievements.\" Chen Pin comforted him.

\"I know too, but I'm thinking. If we could buy Infineon, it would be great! At that time, our exhibition will definitely be able to fly several steps! \" Wu Datong is full of longing,\" Even without Infineon, as long as our R&D funding is doubled...No, by increasing by 50, I am sure to catch up with MediaTek within three years and surpass them within five years. Take down the entire Chinese smartphone Low-end market!\"

\"How is it possible?\" Chen Pin laughed blankly,\" Our largest shareholder is MediaTek. How could these treasure islanders let us surpass their parent company? I think the best thing for us is to be able to stand firm in the low-end market. Heel. Then slowly talk about other things.\"

\"This can only be done!\" Wu Datong said helplessly.

When they started their business, they happened to encounter the Great Depression of the Internet era, and then they also encountered the 911 in the United States, so financing was very difficult, and they were picked up by companies such as MediaTek.

When it went public last year, the management's shareholding was even an extremely embarrassing number of 13.The rest was more than 42 in the hands of MediaTek, 26 in the hands of some investment funds, and the remaining shares were tradable shares.

They make money, but the company's overall equity is already handed over. It feels really uncomfortable to find the approval of the treasure islanders and those investment funds for everything.

But what is the solution?

The companies created by these PhDs who study abroad are all private, and without government support, it is already very good to be able to develop to this point.

If you want to be more successful, you need more opportunities.

\"Boom boom boom!!!\"

As the two talked, suddenly the door outside was knocked, and the voice was still very urgent.

Before I could say "come in", a man in his thirties rushed in with excitement: "Lao Chen, Lao Wu, come on! Someone is coming!!!"

\"Jiang Ping, your boss is not young anymore, what needs to be so excited?\" Chen Pin looked at him, somewhat amused: \"Which official in the development zone is here again? Or which leader in the city? Come to do the face project?\"

Jiang Ping is the head of the 3g business department of Spreadtrum, and one of their overseas students who returned from the United States together.He is naturally a faction in the company.

These people basically occupy the main force of the company. The supervisors sent by MediaTek and other shareholders occupy a small part. However, outside of normal operations, they have a large number of supervisors. The right to suspend.

Jiang Ping's face flushed, all excited: "No, it's not them! It's my idol! My idol is here!"

\"Your idol?\" Wu Datong also laughed this time, \"Dehua came to our company?\"

\"It's not Dehua, it's more than his background!\" Jiang Ping almost yelled: \"Xiao Qi!.[,!] Xiao Qi from Fairy Company is here! I'm at the reception desk outside, don't hurry up. !?\"

\"Uh!?\"

Chen Pin and Wu Datong stood up all of a sudden, \"Aren't you dreaming? Xiao Qi? I didn't pretend to be someone, right?\"

\"How could it be an impersonation?\" Jiang Ping smiled, \"You will know if you go and see, can Xiao Qi be someone else who can impersonate it?\"

\"Go! Go and see!\"

Wu Datong grabbed the suit jacket that was put aside, and ran out in a hurry.

The two of them just talked about Xiao Qi.Although Wu Datong is technical, he is not a fool.

Such a big person as Xiao Qi must have come to Spreadtrum for no reason, maybe it was a chance for Spreadtrum!

Chen Pin thought the same as him, so he rushed to the reception desk on the first floor with Jiang Ping excitedly.

When they arrived, they happened to see a young man standing up and staring at them with anger.

It's not that the seven or eight bodyguards standing at the door and in the corner reveal Xiao Qi's aura of wealth, or that this teenager's dress and dress are all world-class workmanship, but Chen Pin and Wu Datong look at Xiao Qi gentle and confident. The look in the eyes knows that it is impossible for anyone to impersonate.

Because young people around the age of 20 are all students, it is impossible to have such a large aura, let alone facing strangers in such a calm manner.

The so-called newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they are not afraid of stage fright. In fact, it depends on people, especially when they are in contact with strangers in unfamiliar environments, young people often show timidity.

\"Qi Shao, this is our President Chen, and this is our President Wu.\" Jiang Ping took a step forward and introduced them.

\"Mr. Chen Pin, Mr. Wu Datong.\" Xiao Qi laughed and stretched out his hand: \"I am Xiao Qi, I am glad to meet the two.\"

\"Little Qi, we are lucky to meet!\" Chen Pin and Wu Datong hurriedly stretched out their hands, and held them tightly with Xiao Qi, \"You are our global Chinese idol!\ "

\"The two have returned from studying abroad and can share their strength for the country and the people. This is what Xiao Qi admires.\" Xiao Qi smiled and motioned for them to sit next to him.

This is not a fairy company, but Xiao Qi seems to be the owner.

It happened that Chen Pin and Wu Datong didn't feel that anything was wrong, but sat down with a little honor.

\"Back in China, many things are not so satisfactory, right?\" Xiao Qi asked, opening his mouth.

\"Ha ha!\"

Wu Datong smiled and did not reply.He was not afraid that Xiao Qi would spread the complaint. Xiao Qi's character was still trustworthy, but he never liked complaining.

But Chen Pin is not like this anymore. He sighed: \"Who said no? Qi Shao, how difficult it is for us to come all the way! Back in China, there are no preferential policies at all, and the external environment is very difficult Bad, we thought that Spreadtrum was going to collapse several times. In order to keep Spreadtrum alive, we surrendered a lot, so that many of the decision-making powers of Spreadtrum are not in our hands. It is almost impossible to develop as we wished. , Tell me, can this feeling be good?\"

Wu Datong and Jiang Ping's eyebrows jumped, and they couldn't help looking at Chen Pin.

To become the president and concurrently, Chen Pin is definitely not a person who can't hide his words, but he spit out bitterness to Xiao Qi when he came up, and he almost told it all. Such a situation is not suitable for Chen Pin's usual style!

Xiao Qi nodded calmly: \"This feeling is not good.\"

Chen Pin saw that Xiao Qi didn't have any expressions, and smiled unequivocally: \"But it's useless for me to tell you this. You are a divine help along the way, so naturally you won't feel this.\"

Xiao Qi laughed blankly: "Mr. Chen, do you know why my first real smart product is not a mobile phone?"

\"Also please Qi Shao's advice.\" Chen Pin said without knowing it.

\"Because the fairy company I founded when I was 18 years old, I started with copycats. Zhaiji. I did a good job. However, there was an official business in our small city. The collusion forced me to sell it. The whole factory and the rights and interests, so I can only start from scratch, starting from the tablet. \" Xiao Qi calmly said: \" You are still close to the end of the world, but I have nowhere to go. Then you think, yours at this time Mood, can you compare it to what I had at the time?\"
