Chapter 257 About the Profit Controversy

Leaving legal principles aside, the difference between a country and an enterprise is actually not that great from an organizational perspective.

The initial germination of a country is a small collective, and the initial embryonic state of an ordinary company is also a small collective.

Small means that the ability to resist risks is small. For example, Xiawei, which was established in the 1980s, only had a starting capital of 20,000 yuan. It is the difference between a mayfly and a giant elephant.

And how did they grow?

Nothing but war.

This step-by-step growth process is the result of battles and plunders of talents and other resources.

A country or an enterprise often has a very simple personnel structure at the beginning of its establishment, friends, relatives, and a community of interests. As the enterprise continues to grow, its business scope and project management become wider and wider, and it is necessary to select talents and talents.

Therefore, there are systems for selecting talents such as the inspection system, the nine-rank system, and the imperial examination system.

The same is true for a company that wants to develop, it needs talents.

Poaching, high-salary recruitment, social recruitment and school recruitment, even special recruitment, special talent channels and other measures are all to add talents to the enterprise.

Gu Qing's expectations for the future of Kyushu Science and Technology are naturally extremely high.

Therefore, the emphasis on human resources is also extremely high.

In the past, Kyushu Science and Technology was a small temple, unable to hold a great god, but now Kyushu Science and Technology is no longer what it used to be, especially in the face of the coming storm, so Zhang Yuanfeng got more and thicker list materials than before.

Of course, the amount of the bonus has also become larger...

While Kyushu Technology was busy recruiting and expanding, the financial reports of the first, second and third quarters of various manufacturers in the mobile phone market were also released.

Thanks to the blessing of Boundary Monument, in the three quarters, Xiawei’s shipments surpassed Pingguo’s, and even rice surpassed Pingguo’s. From this perspective, it is really gratifying.

But the profit figures are jaw-dropping.

Apple got 70% of the profit in the mobile phone market, Samsung got 10% of the profit, and the domestic brand mobile phone manufacturers combined only took 17% of the profit.

The big country with the largest shipments did not even get half of the profits, which is really frustrating...

Although Pingguo is an American company, it relies on the big summer market to eat a lot of food, and what's even more outrageous is that it is "under reward" with high publicity fees.

The domestic Pingguo experience stores and Pingguo official website in Daxia are often overwhelmed when new products are released.

Twelve phases of interest-free, stable system, high-quality ecology, "customer service" attitude, and overbearing strong supply chain provide high-quality components. There is also the B grid that was marketed in previous years, plus the blessing of boundary markers this year.

Under the combination of punches, although Apple did not beat Xia Wei in terms of shipments, it beat everyone in profit, the place where it really made money.

Of course, there is another very important reason why domestic mobile phone manufacturers cannot beat Apple in profit margins. Except for Xia Wei, other manufacturers' mid-to-high-end mobile phones compete with other competitors for "quality", so almost all of them use Qualcomm chips. The Android-based ecology is used, and high-end displays have to buy Korean star screens at a high price.

Most of the profits are made by foreign companies, and what is left to Daxia OEM companies and suppliers is only a little soup in the pork rib soup.

Except for Xia Wei, other companies are helpless.

They cannot do without foreign suppliers, nor can they lose the Android ecosystem.

Gu Qing got this information early in the morning, of course he knew about the occurrence of this situation earlier.

And after this information was circulated among the media and the masses, besides Xia Wei, companies such as Dami were also criticized by many people.

Assembly plants, marketing plants, high prices and low quality...

Of course, there are also some brands of mobile phones that have been brought up to whip corpses. For example, someone thought that because the 5G voting incident was also brought up by the media, it was just to show that the internal struggle in Daxia was serious and they would not fight for profits at all.

Although this is not the main reason, anger does not make people calm down and think.

In order to deal with the problem of public opinion, rice and other manufacturers can only cut off a piece of meat with great pain, and feed it to the navy and self-media, so that they will stop biting people and control the direction of public opinion by the way.

Of course, in private, the senior officials of several major manufacturers are also meeting constantly.

Although many of them are indeed assembly plants, relying on high-end component suppliers such as Qualcomm chips and Korean star screens.

But who wouldn't want to earn a little more?

Even if some of the executives used to be the top executives of Han Xing, Google, and even Pingguo.

People do not kill heaven and earth for themselves, and the world is universal.

After discussing and discussing, everyone turned their attention to domestic suppliers such as Kyushu Technology and Xiaxin Technology.

That Gu Qing seems to have said at the press conference that Suiren's mobile phone will use Kyushu Technology's screen, right?

Recently, Xia Wei invested a huge sum of money in Shanghai Microelectronics. Is there any new result coming out?

How long will it take for Xiaxin Technology to make chips similar to the 7nm process?

If the output and performance of MediaTek chips can be increased, and the price can be lower than that of Qualcomm chips, it may not be easy for them to abandon Qualcomm, but it is not impossible to mix Qualcomm and MediaTek chips for mid-to-high-end chips.

Don't think that these manufacturers are really heart-to-heart with foreign companies such as Qualcomm.

In the first half of the past 19 years, Qualcomm won the first place in mobile phone chips with a market share of 30%, but compared with the data in 2018, it fell by a full 15%.

In the first half of 2019, MediaTek ranked second with a market share of 25%, an increase of 10% compared to 2018.

Under the ebb and flow, it is natural to see the characteristics of mobile phone manufacturers-only profit.

The P-series and G-series chips released by MediaTek in 2019 mainly focus on mid-range camera and game phones, which greatly enriched the 4G market. At the same time, the price is much lower than that of the same Qualcomm chips. Although there is a slight performance gap, But in the eyes of mobile phone manufacturers, this is a cheap and good product.

Make money, don't be fooled.

It's just that MediaTek is limited by the chip manufacturing process, and the production capacity of mid-to-high-end chips is still a bit stretched.

But as long as the lithography machine can be solved, everything is easy to say.

Therefore, a group of elite executives discussed and discussed, and for the sake of future market share and more profits, they all chose to wait.

After Suiren's first product comes out, and after testing Kyushu Technology's screen and system, if possible, "learn" the system design and buy some screen supplies.

I heard that MediaTek's 5G chip is also on the brows. At that time, I will use MediaTek's high-end chips and install my own modified system.

Hey, we are also pure domestic smartphones.

After the signature products are produced, mainstream mobile phones can be mixed with supplier components.

As for the black history back then?

If the prodigal son turns back, he won't change his money.
