Age of Dreams

Chapter 15: The journey is far away

Early on Sunday morning, Xiao Qi went out with a lot of snacks and clothes.

   Chen Yulian heard that he was going to Rongcheng for a few days and filled him with a large suitcase. If the father and son hadn't stopped her, maybe she would have to prepare another one.

   The family of Xiao’s family is considered wealthy. In addition to the salutes and snacks, Chen Yulian generously gave Xiao Qi three thousand yuan. In addition to paying for the food and competition fees, the rest would buy him something.

   Anyway, my son never used money indiscriminately, and Chen Yulian gave this money quickly and quickly.

   However, Xiao Xu and Chen Yulian didn't know that Xiao Qi, who was out of the house, got in the car to play in Rongcheng, and after a few more twists and turns, he boarded the plane to Nanwan in the afternoon.

Nanwan is China’s first large city to open to the outside world. In that year, with the help of the whole country, in just two decades, this small fishing village was built into an international metropolis, becoming China’s second largest city. It is the fourth largest city in the capital, Dongfang and Guangdong.

   At the same time, it is close to the Winter Pavilion in South Bay. It is the center of China's manufacturing industry and the core of the mobile phone manufacturing industry.

   At the most exaggerated time, the Winter Hall is responsible for processing 30% of the world's mobile phones. A sneeze in the Winter Hall will cause a shock in the mobile phone market.

  Because Nanwan is a city built from nothing, the urban planning here is very systematic, streets and buildings are everywhere, and there are bright lights everywhere, which looks very modern and stylish.

   From the airport BUS, standing in the center of South Bay, Xiao Qi didn't feel much.

   There are more high-rise buildings in the United States than in South Bay, and they are more distinctive. Compared with these buildings built for construction, Xiao Qi doesn't like it very much and feels that he does not have his own soul.

   Xiao Qi came to Nanwan with the primary purpose of finding a Baodao company that established a branch in Nanwan in 2003.

   This treasure island company is called MediaTek Co., Ltd., or MediaTek (MTK) for short. Nowadays, it is not very well-known in the mainland. Even in 2013, it was not very well-known in the impression of ordinary people.

   But starting in the near future, MediaTek's presence in the mobile phone industry, especially in the mainland mobile phone industry, can be described as powerful and prestigious.

Because MediaTek provided the mobile phone companies in China with a mobile phone chip they developed. This mobile phone chip includes five modules: CPU processor, channel encoder, digital signal processor, modem, and interface. Depart from the core technology of buying several chips for combined production.

   As a result, for the production of mobile phones, the core technology is completely lost.

To put it bluntly, MediaTek combines the motherboard and software functions of the mobile phone to make a chip. If you buy it back, you only need to use the MediaTek chip and shell, keyboard, speaker, antenna, handset, microphone, battery, etc. Simply assemble them together, and that is a mobile phone that can be used!

   As for things such as housings, speakers, batteries, etc., there are many winter halls, and various brands can be found at various price points. For mobile phone manufacturers, there are no patents and technologies at all.

   It is no exaggeration to say that a farmer who has been trained for a week can still assemble mobile phones proficiently.

On a larger scale, since the release of MediaTek’s mobile phone chips, the R&D departments of many mainland mobile phone manufacturers have largely lost their existing value, because the mainland mobile phone companies no longer need any technology—facts In the past, historically companies including Bird, Konka, Lenovo, BBK, etc., directly abolished the R&D department.

Of course, these are things that will not happen until next year, that is, May and June 2006. Until then, several major manufacturers will continue to accept the promotion of MediaTek’s new generation of chips, officially allowing MediaTek to be in China’s mobile phone industry. , And began to sway his own chapters in full color.

Now MediaTek still uses a single chip for mobile phones that they developed in 2003. Compared with the several models launched in 2006, the performance and price are extremely weak, so there is nothing now. Manufacturers buy their accounts.

   It’s September 2005, and MediaTek’s new mobile phone chips should be under development and testing. They will not be fully formed until around the Spring Festival.

   After MediaTek's mobile phone chip solution comes out, it will not only bring about a huge change in mobile phone production, but also a super subversion of the price of the mobile phone market.

   Before the launch of MediaTek’s mobile phone chips, the mobile phone industry was controlled by major domestic and foreign companies. Mobile phones below 1,500 are rarely seen, and mainstream models are all over 2,000 or 3,000.

   Once MediaTek’s mobile phone chips are used, the manufacturing cost of the mobile phone will directly drop to a few hundred yuan per unit.

Those small companies can completely sell mobile phones with decent performance directly at a price of 1,000 yuan or even lower. Then people will rush to buy cheap mobile phones, resulting in those with poor quality and no core technology. Huaguo Mobile Phone Company collapsed directly.

   Even Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson and other companies will be greatly impacted. Uukanshu.com thus had to lower its price.

   As long as it is the era of huge profits that mobile phones can obtain, it can be said that since the launch of MediaTek's mobile phone chips, it has completely become history.

   In the days to come, mobile phones will become cheaper and cheaper, and many people should actually be grateful to this company from Treasure Island.

   The mobile phone that Xiao Qi wants to assemble by himself is actually the scientific name of the copycat machine that everyone will be familiar with from now on.

   Xiao Qi’s idea was to use his foresight to win MediaTek’s mobile phone chip contract before MediaTek launched a new mobile phone chip, and when their self-confidence was not sufficient.

After getting the mobile phone chip, there is no need for any technology. By then, Xiao Qi will take advantage of the time difference between MediaTek's mobile phone chip that has not yet been used on a large scale, and commissions the factory to assemble a batch of decent quality copycats, which will be sold in the third-tier and fourth-tier markets. .

   Without the exploitation of layers of middlemen, Xiao Qi even decided to launch it at a super shocking price.

   Such a cheap and easy-to-use mobile phone, can those people in remote counties and towns pay for it?

   Of course, this is the future.

  What Xiao Qi has to do now is to find the general manager of MediaTek, persuade him, and let them accept the cooperation plan he proposed.

   Xiao Qi said in his heart that he was not nervous about this big event that he had never done before.

   But after his rebirth, the young man whose courage and personality have changed drastically, has absolutely no intention of giving up.

   Try to do it hard, it may not succeed.

   But if you don't work hard, then there is no hope at all.
