Chapter 164

"Yes, but you still need to do something to prove yourself!"

Tong Hao looked at Lu Weibing, who was still very serious about this matter, and understood that this matter was of great significance to Lu Weibing.

If the peak series really becomes a brand, Lu Weibing will naturally become the person in charge of the brand. At that time, his rights will be increased, and even some things don't need to apply to Tong Hao at all.

"You say!"

Lu Weibing didn't feel too resistant to his chairman's request. After all, if he wanted to really make the peak series a new brand, the so-called test would not be less.

Seeing that the other party didn't refuse, Tong Hao also directly said his request: "release a new flagship mobile phone before March! And I won't intervene too much in mobile phone design and production this time!"

Producing a new flagship mobile phone in March?

Lu Weibing heard the request made by the chairman of his own company. Although he was surprised at such a request, he thought it over carefully and felt that his chairman's request was still reasonable.

A brand needs multiple series of products, and now the peak series only has a production line of digital products.

If you want to become a real brand, you can't rely on only one product production line.

After thinking about it, Lu Weibing nodded and agreed to the test put forward by his chairman.

It is not easy to say that another new flagship product will be produced in March.

From design to production and then to sales, there are only five months left for him. Counting the time for the Chinese new year, there are only a little more than four months left for him.

That means Lu Weibing needs to design the style of this mobile phone years ago and obtain the accessories provided by the supplier, and he needs to start producing a new mobile phone years later.

Tong Hao saw that the other party agreed and didn't say anything more.

Obviously, the requirements put forward this time are not only to test Lu Weibing's strength, but also to consider the future.

It can be said that the mobile phones produced by the top manufacturers of Android are basically a one-year dual flagship model.

As a top Android mobile phone manufacturer, Samsung has two flagship series.

They are the flagship of S series released in the first half of the year, focusing on fashion; And the note series, the flagship of business, will be released in the second half of the year.

As one of the domestic android manufacturers with scientific research strength, Huawei also has a dual flagship solution such as Samsung.

P series mobile phones are the fashion flagship released in the mobile phone market in the first half of the year, while mate series is the comprehensive flagship released in the second half of the year.

Tong Hao not only hopes that the peak brand will become bigger and bigger in the future, but also hopes that he can achieve the goal of two flagship brands a year.

After this evening's conversation, Lu Weibing also devoted all his energy to his new job.

As for the sales of the third generation of peak mobile phones, the overall situation has basically been determined. Lu Weibing doesn't need to take care of too many things. It can be said that the champion of Android flagship sales this year is basically the third generation of peak mobile phones.

On the second day after the release of the mobile phone, the third-generation pro of the peak mobile phone was sold out directly online. Coupled with the heat of the first round of sales, it dissipated with the launch time.

The next day, the sales volume of the third generation of peak mobile phones gradually changed from hot to calm, and the online sales volume directly decreased from 3 million yesterday to 800000.

The company has long predicted such achievements, and Tong Hao is not too worried. After all, the configuration of this product is not afraid that it can not be sold.

The overall situation of sales has basically been determined, and now Tong Hao's focus has shifted from the third generation of peak mobile phones to Huateng company.

On October 20, the recent lithography machine from the Netherlands was finally assembled in the sterile plant of Huateng company and can be officially put into production.

This means that the output of Huateng's products has reached a certain level and can officially take orders from other companies.

What Tong Hao didn't expect was that the first person to apply for an order from Huateng was not others, but Huawei, an old rival of Tianyu company.

Huawei's order this time is to produce 20 million new mid-range processor chips made by 10 nm technology.

Although Huawei can design its own processor chips, it has no conditions to produce processors. It can only pay other manufacturers to produce them.

This time, Huawei did not give orders for processor chips to TSMC or other chip processor foundries.

This naturally has Huawei's consideration.

In Huawei's view, although Huateng company has been established for a short time, its production technology is still relatively excellent. From the mobile phones released by Tianyu company, Huateng company is not weak compared with TSMC.

In addition, the cost of processor chips manufactured by Huateng is 5% cheaper than that of TSMC. In this case, Huawei is willing to save some money and hand over these goods to Huateng for production.

There is another deep-seated reason why Huawei chose to place an order with Huateng.

Although Huateng is an important partner of Huawei's rival Tianyu company, Huawei feels that placing orders can reduce Huateng's supply of processor chips to Tianyu company.

In this way, reduce the shipments of rival companies' mobile phones, so as to take advantage of this opportunity to seize part of the mobile phone market.

"Now, if the company tries its best to produce ten nanometer processors, how many processor chips can it produce in a month!"

Tong Hao did not choose to directly reject the orders placed by Huawei to the company. After all, the business in front of him can't be missed in vain.

According to the cost of OEM, our company can earn more than 400 yuan for each processor chip we help them produce.

This income is also a large number, of course, on the premise that it does not affect the production of processing agent chips of its own company.

"Now the company has basically been very skilled in the process of 10 nm processor chips, and the yield can basically be maintained at more than 98%. Basically, with the increased production line, it should not be a problem to produce 40 million such processor chips a month!"

"However, the company has recently received orders for other chips. I'm afraid that if it can be used to produce processor chips, the lithography machine can only produce half the quantity, that is, it can produce 20 million processor chips a month!"

Zhang Rujin doesn't know the current production situation of the company like the back of his hand. Although he can't compare with TSMC, he can supply billions of chips and nearly a dozen billion mobile phone processor chips a year.

However, relying on the current production line, the company can also produce more than 1 billion chips and 200-300 million mobile phone processor chips a year.

To tell the truth, such production quantity is completely enough, even more than enough, for Tianyu company.

After all, according to the current mobile phone market in China, the number of mobile phones shipped in a year is basically only nearly 500 million.

According to the current development level of Tianyu company and the strength of OEM assembly plants, screen cameras and other accessories suppliers that can be contacted, it can only ship nearly 100 million mobile phones a year at most.

In other words, the current Huateng company only needs to reserve half of the output of processor chips for Tianyu company, which can ensure that there are enough processor chips for the production of Tianyu company's mobile phones.

"Huawei can take this order, but in terms of production, it still needs to be delayed until the end of December..."

Tong Hao is not only the chairman of a mobile phone company, but also the chairman of a semiconductor company, but also the chairman of a screen company.

For making money, he can choose to cooperate as long as it does not directly damage the cooperation of his other industries.

After all, these cooperation have a lot of money income, and no company or chairman will refuse money.
