Chapter 808 Excluded
Users' aversion to the Android system has naturally transferred to Android phones, and the first to bear the brunt is Samsung, which has almost equated with Android phones.
There are very few mobile phones on the market that still insist on using the Android system, and the only one that sells well is Samsung.
However, here comes Samsung's big trouble.
The large-scale promotion was just started in July, and this happened just as I was preparing to grab the market in August.
Samsung first issued a statement saying that its own mobile phones have been patched and there is no security risk, but the effect is minimal.
Samsung's Lee Jae-yong took Lee Yoon-woo and Kwon Oh-hyun to Google immediately to discuss crisis response strategies.
"The biggest crisis of the Android system now is actually the existence of substitutability." Lee Jae-yong hit the nail on the head, "So in addition to reducing the market's negative sentiment towards Android, we should also look for problems from our opponents."
Page is obviously not in a good mood now. Google's reorganization itself is under a lot of pressure. As a result, such a thing happened just after the reorganization, "From the perspective of applicability, our real opponent is the Vientiane system."
"Vientiane system. Although Vientiane has done a good job in security, stability has always been the biggest flaw in Vientiane. Can we do something about it?"
"Difficult, mobile phone manufacturers have system optimization, and now the mobile phone system is what users really care about is security."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"Leave it to time."
After leaving Google, Lee Jae-yong looked at Lee Yoon-woo and Kwon Oh-hyun seriously, "What do you think of the current Google?"
"Google makes me feel too tight." Li Runyu said his feelings, "If I tighten up a little more, it may be..."
"Android has been thundering one after another, search engines have not had much surprises for a long time, and various technological breakthroughs have been slow. The so-called Google miracle may really have been shattered." Kwon Wu-hyun expressed his opinion, "We can no longer pin our hopes on In such a company."
Li Zairong glanced at the Google building, his eyes gradually became firmer, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number, "Mr. Nadella, yes, I am in the United States now, and I just came out of Google. I think we can chat in detail, okay, I'll go find you now."
Li Zayong and others boarded the car and went to the Microsoft building. On the other side, Cook came to Dafeng Group.
The details of what the two sides talked about will gradually reveal the answer in the near future.
At the end of August, the sales of Android mobile phones continued to decline, and the monthly sales of Samsung mobile phones fell below 10 million units for the first time. Samsung entered a fast downward channel. At this time, a news suddenly appeared in the market, "Microsoft may acquire Android".
In this era, the appearance of some news with or words is to test the user's reaction.
"So what if you buy it or not? It's not that there are no other mobile phone systems that can be used."
"The fatal problem of Microsoft's system is not compatibility and ecology. If Microsoft really acquires Android, it should still have a positive meaning. After all, Microsoft's system team is the world's first and the world's first-class."
"Android is now open source. After Microsoft's acquisition, it must also be open source? How will Microsoft intervene in Android?"
"Microsoft just bought Google. The mobile phone system has been developed until 2015. How much can it change? What about Microsoft? The computer system can't do well now."
In the Google conference room, Nadella looked at Page strongly, "You have also seen how disappointed the market has become with Android. What hope do you think Android will have if it continues like this?"
"Time will dilute everything."
"Yes, time will dilute everything, but the problem is that the Android system may not have so much time, and users will fully fall to the Vientiane system when they still have memories."
"Vientiane isn't that perfect either." Page must insist, "Vientiane also has problems."
"What's the problem? Give Vientiane a monitor?"
"It's not impossible!"
"Page, you are already crazy." Nadella looked superior, "Are you really unable to see the current situation clearly? What did you say when you met before? With the current international situation of Dafeng Group and Huaxia Media The influence of public opinion, you are careful to drag everyone into the water again!"
Nadella had a fierce quarrel with Page. In the end, Nadella left Google with anger and called Lee Jae-yong. Chi chat."
Li Zairong on the other end of the phone said with a stiff tone, "Mr. Nadella, we should probably talk to Intel now."
"What's wrong?"
"ARM has gone against the water."
"What did you say?! How is this possible?"
Nadella was really surprised. After all, Intel just cooperated with ARM not long ago and placed Dafeng Group together. How long has it been since ARM turned back? This is trouble.
But when Nadella came to Intel, everything was answered, and ARM really cooperated with Gale Group.
The reason is very realistic, mobile phone processor technology.
The competition for mobile phone processor technology has always been more intense than the competition for computer CPU technology, so Gale Group’s leadership in the 10nm process of mobile phone processors is a matter of far-reaching significance. More importantly, Gale Group has given at least 2018. Commitment to annual mass production of 7nm processors.
"I heard that Dafeng Group directly signed a VAM agreement with ARM." Li Zairong said the news he had heard with a sad face.
"Currently, the orders for Hongmeng architecture are basically made by Dafeng Semiconductor, and the orders for ARM are dominated by Samsung, TSMC and our Intel. Once Dafeng Group cooperates with ARM, once ARM chip companies start to find Dafeng Semiconductor to manufacture ARM chips, the semiconductor generation There are bound to be huge changes in the labor landscape.”
"Didn't Intel increase its investment in advancing technology?" Nadella couldn't help asking.
Krzanik's expression was very tangled, "If we put it in the past, of course we are confident, but the biggest variable now is EUV technology. If Dafeng Group really applies EUV technology to the 7nm process and achieves success, we are now It is useless to increase investment, because the difference in the direction of the previous two years is here, and we will not be able to catch up with the two-year gap.
We can only try to increase investment in the 5nm process to make two-handed preparations, but from the perspective of ARM, they will not come to gamble with us. "
Nadella also had to admit, "From the perspective of interests, it is indeed a very smart choice for ARM to choose to cooperate with Dafeng Group at this time."
"The Dafeng Group has captured another important partner."
Seeing the two chatting there for a long time, Li Zairong asked anxiously, "So what should we do now?"
"Let me contact ARM first, and then contact the chip company. After all, ARM is an architecture provider, and the order still depends on the chip company."
Krzanik can't do much now, and there is no confirmation until Lee Jae-yong returns to China.
Sitting on the plane back to China, Li Zairong has been watching the market reaction after the cooperation between Dafeng Semiconductor and ARM. Now the Hongmeng architecture and the ARM architecture occupy 95% of the market for mobile phone processors. The two architectures were in opposition before and returned to the market. Brings some guesses.
Now that we cooperate, everyone feels that the architecture market is stable.
"You still have to have hard power." Lee Jae-yong couldn't help sighing.
After getting off the plane and returning to the company, Li Zayong called Li Runyu to his office to tell him about the situation of the trip to the United States. As soon as Li Runyu saw Li Zayong, he asked anxiously, "Why did Apple cancel the order?"
Li Zairong was also stunned, and he was still waiting for Krzanik to change the situation after contacting ARM, "There is no reason, how could Apple? Didn't Cook treat Meng Qian as a deadly enemy? Why... Didn't Intel put pressure on it? is it?"
Li Runyu sneered, "Apple just issued a statement that their next chip foundry will be handed over to Intel and Dafeng Semiconductor respectively."
"Intel and Dafeng Semiconductor? Just to exclude us?" Lee Jae-yong felt very strange. "Now American companies are fighting against the Dafeng Group. Coupled with our influence in the United States, they must need us. At this time, we are right. It's important to them.
Especially in the fields of LCD panels, memory, etc., they can only rely on us now, otherwise the Dafeng Group will be the only one, and they...definitely need us."
While Lee Jae-yong was making self-confirmations, Kwon Wu-hyun trotted to Lee Jae-yong's office, "I just received the news that something happened in the LCD panel market."
