Jiang zuyong's words reveal several meanings.
First of all, Samsung already knows Xiao Qi's big purchases in Japan. In addition, in terms of price, Xiao Qi was slaughtered by the Japanese. If the order was given to Samsung, they would be more preferential.
When Samsung seizes the Japanese market, it often doesn't care about the cost. It first takes over the business, increases the operation of the industry, improves the technical quality, and trains a large number of workers.
As for whether to make money or not, it doesn't matter. When the market completely belongs to itself, what has been lost can be compensated back - in the future, Apple's chip price has been raised several times by Samsung.
Japanese manufacturers have a much deeper foundation than Samsung, but they can't compare with others with the support of the whole Korean government.
For example, in 2001, in order to support Samsung in a difficult situation, the South Korean government issued a "export reward" of US $20 billion for no reason - why, is it thunderous enough? Chinese entrepreneurs are so jealous that their eyes float to South Korea.
Xiao Qi knew that it was also in the early ten years of the 21st century that Samsung Electronics used a lot of such tricks to directly beat the shit of Japanese giants such as Sony, Panasonic and Hitachi, and finally almost went bankrupt and reorganized.
Samsung Electronics took advantage of this and almost overtook apple as a subsidiary to become the first in the world.
Through a period of hard study, Xiao Qi knew a truth.
The profit of such large-scale parts production is unimaginable.
In other words, don't complain that the parts, dolls and gadgets manufactured by Honghai and Jiangsu and Zhejiang small factories are cheap. In fact, whoever does this business has a meager profit. It's good if the net profit can reach 5%. It's pathetic compared with 50% of catering, 100% of wine and 200% of cigarettes.
There is only one way out for this kind of parts production, that is to become bigger and stronger and use quantity to impact the total profit.
The most successful manufacturer in the previous life is the Baodao foundry, and the best one in the Baodao foundry is naturally the Red Sea.
Guo Taiming became the richest man in Baodao with the hard-earned money of millions of workers.
Thoughts flash away. It is precisely because Samsung's DRAM memory chip dares to reduce the price by 10%, which has almost reached the profit and loss point, which makes Xiao Qi quite excited.
Only considering that at the present stage, Samsung's DRAM chip is indeed worse than that of Japan, and Xiao Qi pays most attention to the quality of products, so he finally didn't let go.
"Hehe, I'll have a chance to cooperate in the future." Xiao Qi smiled and turned his words aside. "To tell you the truth, the business I came to talk about this time is much more than DRAM chips."
"Ah, really? Mr. Xiao, what do you care about us? " Jiang zuyong immediately smiled.
Originally, he was politely refused by Xiao Qi, but he was a little frustrated. But as soon as he heard that "bigger business" was to be discussed, he was in high spirits.
Samsung is far from a super electronics giant that almost keeps pace with apple in the world after 2012. They need to absorb nutrition in the financial crisis, accumulate their own technical strength, and then take advantage of the poor operation of various countries' industries to seize the electronic product market of various countries in one fell swoop.
So again, it doesn't matter whether they make money or not. What they value most is the opportunity to train workers and improve technology - anyway, if they lose money, there are Korean government subsidies and even the excuse of "export reward". What else can the Korean government do to support Samsung?
"As far as I know, Samsung has its own independent technology on nandflash, and the output is not bad?" Xiao Qi continued to speak.
"Yes! Whether Samsung is making solid-state drives or NAND flash memory, it is absolutely world-class! Mr. Xiao, just look at our computer sales! " Jin Chengrong's spirit was refreshed and DRAM couldn't talk. NAND flash memory is the object he wants to talk about in the next step, and the profit of NAND flash memory is higher. If Xiao Qi wants to talk, it's the best.
NAND flash memory is a reduced solid-state disk. The 1g, 2G, 4G and other small chips used on mobile phones are also a kind of NAND flash memory. However, this kind of flash memory is more inclined to chips, and NAND flash memory is more inclined to look like a small dried tofu, so as to avoid the possibility of scrapping the hard disk due to collision and other factors.
The iPhone launched by Qiao Bangzhu was originally only 4G and 8g, which is very different from the later 16g, 32g and 64g.
The reason why guild leader Qiao did this is very simple. In order to save costs.
At this time, 4G NAND memory is $9 and 8g NAND memory is $15. It seems that it is not much different from 16g and 32g. However, in the view of apple, a company that squeezes profits, 20 or 30 dollars is already very big.
Moreover, the mainstream of mobile phones is only 1g and 2G. Apple is very sincere to make 4G and 8g versions of iPhone.
Today's mobile phones don't have endless games, applications, etc. only those that need high memory and high dynamic DRAM cooperation. At present, it seems unnecessary.
Only with the gradual development, and then slowly increase the configuration, so that their products can keep up with the times and not fall behind. This is the reason for product upgrading.
However, although mobile phones can be updated slowly, tablet computers can't!
Needless to say, tablet computers consume electricity, as well as the expanded screens, touch screens, various running programs, etc. which is not a thing that consumes power and memory?
If you want to be an outstanding epoch-making product, 16g is just the beginning. The real main force still depends on 32g!
"I placed a big order in Toshiba, Japan, but it is far from meeting my needs." Xiao Qi said faintly, "if the price given by Samsung is appropriate, I can give you a big order."
"How much?" Jin Chengrong blurted out and made his debut. Then he was a little embarrassed. "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Xiao. You buy more and buy less. You are all our distinguished guests of Samsung. But in business, you also know that if you buy enough, I will give you a greater discount. "
They just know that Xiao Qi has placed a big order of more than one billion US dollars in Japan for five years, but the specific amount is not very detailed.
If Xiao Qi can give Samsung the same big order as Japan, even if it is a discount to do this business at a loss, why not?
Xiao Qi indicated clearly, "what is the annual output of Samsung's NAND flash memory?"
