Chapter 2317 Informal Negotiations (Part 2)

Xiao Qi’s large-scale acquisition of Sony’s high-end camera production in Japan has been a hot topic in the smart electronics industry in recent days.∈↗

Faced with the actions of this talented young man from the world's number one consumer electronics company, everyone never dared to take it lightly, and many people were analyzing Xiao Qi's intentions.

Now that Li Jianxi suddenly asked, this proved that he had already noticed some of the mysteries, so he came to inquire about Xiao Qi's story.

In the previous life, the fight between the ios camp and the Android camp was fierce.

But in fact, in terms of mobile phone running programs, that is, software, after 2013, as Google invested more and more and gained more experience, the Android system can basically reach 80% of the level of iOS.

Coupled with the optimization of the Android system by mobile phone manufacturers, such as Xiaomi, Huawei, Meizu, Samsung, etc., their own programs developed based on the Android system are generally sufficient.

Therefore, in terms of software, the gap is not very big.

Therefore, everyone's competition has gradually turned into various hardware facilities.

If you use a 5.5-inch LCD screen, I will use a 6-inch one.

You have 12 million pixels, and I have 18 million pixels.

Your screen has a pixel density of 285, and mine has a screen pixel density of 321.

You have 2g of running memory, mine is 3g.

You have a dual-core CPU, I have a 4-core CPU.



For a time, the major manufacturers were inextricably linked, and they promoted their advantages in visible places.

Although the competition in many aspects is only different in words and names, they and the people who buy mobile phones still enjoy it.

But that was in 2013!

Now in 2009, everyone still believes that more work must be done on the operating system to get a better user experience.

After all, if you look at Fairy Company’s Fairy system and Apple’s iOS system, they are different from other companies in terms of use and fully meet people’s expectations for smartphones.

Of course, that doesn't mean that we don't pay attention to hardware equipment, but now in the market, most of the hardware equipment, such as LCD screens, cameras, CPUs, etc., have not widened the gap. In people's perception, except for those from Fairy Company, there is no difference.

It's not very big - even Apple's LCD screen is similar to Samsung's.

Li Jianxi was able to see the mystery contained in Xiao Qi's large purchases. This is what makes him unique.

After Xiao Qi laughed, he said: "As for the dispute between hardware and software, I don't think this matter has much to do with Samsung, right? Anyway, you own the entire industry chain, so there is no need to ask others. Just use

Just make your own products carefully."

"It's different." Li Jianxi shook his head, "Although Samsung also has a full industry chain, now they are more thinking about how to make the bada system better, catching up with or even surpassing the fairy system and ios system. In terms of hardware,

Many people think that Samsung's hardware is already good enough and they just need to keep developing at this rate.

I originally thought so, but I saw Qishao that you spent a huge amount of 10 billion US dollars to control Sony's high-end cameras. It reminded me of your previous monopoly on DRAM and NAND flash memory chips... Now many manufacturers

They don’t dare to enter the market because they can’t find good DRAM and NAND flash memory chips.”

Xiao Qi smiled when he heard this. He was very happy.

What he learned was the trick that Gang Leader Qiao used back then. From the beginning of the iPhone, Cook was ordered to monopolize many high-end components, one of the important ones being flash memory chips. As a result, in the next few years, other companies started to

The storage and running chips are not as easy to use as Apple's iPhone.

In this generation, Xiao Qi used this trick in advance starting from the dreampad, buying a large number of flash memory chips in his hands. In addition to using them for his own use, he also restricted the development of others.

If you are making sophisticated smartphones or tablets, DRAM and NAND flash memory chips are absolutely indispensable, and the requirements for precision are definitely higher than those of desktop computers and laptops. Therefore, when looking to make smartphones, you must take them into consideration.

at this point.

But the problem is that Xiao Qi has already seized the production capacity of several major manufacturers, such as Bilda, Toshiba, LG, and Samsung. In a short time, these manufacturers have very little balance left.

Due to the fierce competition from smartphone and tablet manufacturers that have already entered the market, if they want to actively expand production and supply new shares to new manufacturers, they may have to wait for a year and a half.

Since Xiao Qi launched the dreampad in 2007, other manufacturers that have joined in have also tacitly controlled their own DRAM and NAND flash memory chip production capacity, trying not to let electronic manufacturers who have not yet entered the market get it.

Because of this, many electronic manufacturers that have reacted, such as LG, Alcatel, Blackberry, mobile phone manufacturers in China, and domestic manufacturers in other second- and third-tier countries, are unable to enter.

But now more than two years have passed. Many flash memory chip manufacturers who have seen business opportunities have gradually increased the development and production of flash memory chips for smartphones and tablets. I think this year at most, there will be at least ten.

Mobile phone manufacturers will join the smart electronics camp.

But for being able to delay his competitors for two years, Xiao Qi can be considered very successful.

While many people complained about Xiao Qi's approach, many people in the same industry also praised Xiao Qi's experience.

Li Jianxi is one of them. Together with Xiao Qi, he has almost monopolized half of the flash memory chips of South Korea's Hynix, the world's top three flash memory chip industry, in addition to those produced by himself. The remaining half was taken away by Apple.

Now Xiao Qi's actions on the high-end camera immediately reminded him of the previous flash memory chip, and thus of another round of Xiao Qi's stock-restricting plan, and how much Xiao Qi valued hardware.

"So now, President Li, what do you think?" Xiao Qi asked him.

"I admire your vision, Qi Shao." Li Jianxi said without hesitation, "In addition to Samsung, I will also take over half of LG's high-end camera production capacity. I don't know if Qi Shao is interested in taking the rest.

half?"

Several major financial groups in South Korea almost all follow the same path.

LG, like Samsung, strives to produce all parts of its products in-house, so they have very little demand for external parts and are less restricted by others.

"LG also wants to make smartphones, right? Are they willing to give you high-end cameras? As far as I know, their production capacity is very tight," Xiao Qi said.

"Like Sony, they will massively expand their hardware component production lines. Cameras are also a big aspect, with a scale of about 300 million units a year, but it has not been announced to the public yet." Li Jianxi said seriously, "Samsung

If Henan and Fairy can win half of the products respectively, then although the quality may not be as good as those of Sony and Samsung, they will still be mid-to-high-end products in the entire market, which will help us control the market."

Xiao Qi asked. "But my needs are only so much. The cameras that I have customized with LG and Ricoh can be used to expand the production of Dreamsnow. If it reaches 150 million units a year, where can I go?"

Produce so many mobile phones?”

"Even if we don't use it ourselves, we can sell it to other mobile phone manufacturers after a year or two. Anyway, there are always people who are willing to make mid- to low-end mobile phones." Li Jianxi spread his hands and said. "Maybe we can still do it by then.

I can make some more money.”

"Haha, President Li is really good at calculating." Xiao Qi smiled and gestured with his thumbs. "In this case, let me leave the negotiation to President Li. Fairy Company is willing to purchase LG every year for five years.

150 million sets of high-end cameras.”

Not to mention making money, this kind of thing can be done even if it means losing money.

Keep your phones and tablets a year or two ahead of the curve. This is not a monopoly that money can buy.

"It's a pleasure to discuss business with Mr. Qi." Li Jianxi drank the coffee in one gulp and said with satisfaction: "After we have completed the purchase of this high-end camera, if other companies want to enter the market, they will only be able to enter the market in the next two or three years.

They are stuck in the mid- to low-end. Even if they want to buy some high-end cameras, they cannot mass-produce them on a large scale. This is our opportunity to consolidate our market leadership!"

"After our deal is concluded, President Li might as well let the news out." Xiao Qi said knowingly, "I have signed a purchase list for high-end cameras one after another. They will understand it after thinking about it."

"good!"

Li Jianxi nodded. Xiao Qi's words were exactly what he wanted. Although the Android camp and the Microsoft camp have been fighting against the app store, everyone is constantly fighting and fighting for market share, but in this regard, everyone's interests are

Completely consistent.

Even if the market wants to grow, it should be them, the first entrants, who can do it and enjoy it. Why should it be the turn of new entrants to enjoy it?

Li Jianxi also regrets that he did not make up his mind before. Otherwise, if he had bought Sony and LG's high-end cameras before Xiao Qi, wouldn't even Fairy Company have to be controlled by Samsung?

However, after all, he did not have as good a foresight as Xiao Qi. The talented young man opposite had an absolutely sharp grasp of the entire smart electronics market. It was precisely because Xiao Qi purchased Sony's high-end cameras that Li Jianxi was determined to follow Xiao Qi's lead.

Strange idea!

This is the advantage of being one step ahead! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!

ps: Although I don’t like Koreans, I am full of admiration for Samsung and Li Jianxi. I admire them for their ability to carve out such a vast world. Don’t think that only our companies are subject to various discrimination and embarrassments abroad. Samsung

It's the same, and they suffer more hardships. Just look at the lawsuits over fines, sales bans, patent infringements, etc. every year! When encountering this kind of thing, many state-owned and private enterprises immediately retreat and come back to complain about this and that.
