Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Qu Li reconstructed Singapore and flew to Xingsha, where he communicated with the local leaders of Huxiang. The national leaders wanted to inspect the Geometry Automobile Company in Beijin.

Qiancheng Geometry released "Fuyao and Yunxuan" this time. One is in Yangcheng and the other is in Beijin. Xingsha only has a wind tunnel laboratory, an NVH (acoustic) laboratory, and a vehicle crash laboratory. As for the electromagnetic radiation EMC R\u0026D center in Beijin Tianjin.

This made Xingsha dissatisfied, and they are still very supportive of Future Geometry. But Qu Li can’t help it. The 120,000 subsidy for electric vehicles mainly comes from Guangdong Province and Beijin. Even the Shanghai Metropolis gives more than Huxiang. He has no reason to support Xingsha unconditionally.

Fortunately, everyone is rational. Huxiang congratulated Qiancheng Geometry on its achievements and expressed its support as always. It’s not that Xingsha is unwilling to spend more money, the main reason is that Qianqiye doesn’t want it. For example, if the standard is lowered to build an electric bus or taxi, then the subsidy will not flow to Qianqige?

However, high standards and strict requirements have become a "synonym" for Geometry Motors. It is not easy to create such an impression on consumers, and it is easy to destroy it. Reputation needs to be maintained.

After the leader left, Qu Li and Lu Tao learned about the company's situation. These days, not only the Internet, but also colleagues are very concerned about the technical details behind them through various channels. After all, Qu Li is just a layman, and what he said is not true. Mainly bragging.

"It is said that this is a very successful marketing..." Lu Tao

This is marketing in the first place, so there is nothing to be ashamed of. The technology is true, and it is also true that it is not practical, but is it not enough to break the upper limit of technology and make up for the shortcomings of the industry?

"Should we really mass-produce this concept sports car, maybe it will become the most expensive domestic luxury car brand." Lu Tao swelled at this time

Qu Li is not optimistic. Buying a car worth more than 100,000 to 200,000 yuan may be an impulsive consumption. How many people will be impulsive when buying a luxury car worth several million yuan? Except for a small number of young people's pretentious needs, most of them have a purpose: to show their strength quietly (indirectly).

In fact, Qu Li was born in a poor family. Until now, he became the richest man because of his practicality. He couldn't understand the consumer psychology of people who buy sports cars, so he naturally rejected him.

The impact of "Fuyao and Yunxuan" on the sales of Qiancheng Geometry cars is hard to say. The first coupe is a niche demand, and it is to compete with Honda Civic. Their CVT gearbox should not be as good as Geometry's 7DCT gearbox. But the tuning of the chassis and power system is not what domestic companies are good at. Does the Swing Architecture really have this magic power?

Confirmation of the Fuyao structure means that Qiancheng's supply chain will be greatly adjusted. Many things need to be handled by senior management such as Lu Tao and He Qicheng.

When they arrived in Beijin, some people came to cooperate with them, and asked Huaguan to arrange engineers to improve the explanation of technical details, focusing on an easy-to-understand one. Qu Li took the opportunity to go to Honor to learn about the release time of Honor 6.

Although the most people pay attention to Fuyao and Yunxuan, domestic IT peers pay more attention to the RISC-V open source instruction set architecture and the Rust programming language. It is somewhat unexpected that these two projects are sponsored by Glory and Jumei at the same time.

Domestic Internet companies generally focus on the application layer, and only a few companies such as Glory, Jumei, and Juhuachang invest in basic software and underlying technologies. Although this incident is surprising, Google developed the Go language, and Microsoft developed C # , which is just a routine operation of large companies. Whether Rust can succeed is still unknown. As for RISC-V, it is even more puzzling. The meaning of this thing exists what is it

ARM's fees are actually not high. This can be seen from the fact that they almost monopolize smartphones and smart device chips, but their annual revenue is about 1.8 billion US dollars. This is really a conscientious company.

From a purely commercial point of view, there is no need for Honor to abandon the ARM architecture and choose an open source instruction set architecture with an uncertain future. However, since RISC-V was able to rise later, there are naturally reasons.

Honor's car chip needs, Time Cloud's custom chip needs, and smart home Internet of Things chip needs, all of which are not worth using ARM chips, and their flexibility is greatly affected. In a sense, it can be said that it is not how good RISC-V is, but that there is a demand for it in the current market.

Qu Li didn't need to explain. Anyway, no one asked him such a professional technical question. He just thought it was the decision of Lei Jun and other professionals. However, in any case, the emergence of the Rust language and the RISC-V open source instruction set architecture has further deepened the recognition of Glory by the world's top talents. This is not a company without ideals.

There is also the Kirin chip. After Qu Li’s speech, Honor officially disclosed some technical details of the Kirin chip. It doesn’t look as good as the Snapdragon 810, but Honor dared to show it. Excellent balance.

Qu Li has no confidence in his heart. The Apple A7 surpasses the Samsung Exynos 7420, surpasses the Snapdragon 810 and surpasses the Honor Kirin...

Thanks to Qualcomm for limiting the scope of use of Samsung's chips. Fortunately, Honor also has an NPU that looks awesome and has limited practical functions.

Spreadtrum has also developed two mobile phone chips, one is a quad-core chip with 2 large and 2 small cores, and the other is a CPU with 8 A53 small cores, both of which adopt Samsung's 14nm process.

With these two chips, Honor revived the magic series of mobile phones, using BOE's AMOLED LCD screen...

Glory's various coping strategies, at least in Qu Li's view, are all right. Their operating system itself has been optimized for NPU chips, and its speech recognition, graphics and image processing capabilities have been greatly improved.

In a sense, it can be said that the Honor flagship phone is currently the smartphone with the strongest camera capability in the world, and it works better with Instagram. The selling point of the product is still there!

After various adjustments, Honor mobile phones will continue to insist on making high-quality mobile phones, and there will be more products covering the price range of 300 to 700 US dollars.

"That is to say, our sales may increase, but high-end products are still not good?" Qu Li understood their subconscious meaning, and Honor's high-end chips were still a bit meaningless.

Afterwards, Qu Li asked about Spreadtrum's personnel issues, and whether the adjustment of the R\u0026D team could make China the most important R\u0026D center. This time I finally stopped worrying, Su Zifen was very cooperative.

The development progress of the self-developed architecture is slow, so let the domestic team 007, and black-hearted capitalists like Qu Li will not pity the high-income engineering lions.

Honor's "lag behind" has made domestic smartphone companies see hope. There are many unfavorable voices on the Internet. It is not always possible to take a shortcut to resolve the problem, so their opportunity has come.

Lei Jun was also a little worried at first, but apart from the self-developed chips of the Chrysanthemum Factory, there is still a ray of hope, and other mobile phone companies have nothing to ask for, and there is a chance.

Before he had time to learn about the situation of the chrysanthemum factory, the big domestic leaders were about to arrive, and Qu Li rushed to Qian Chenggeo again. (end of this chapter)
