Chapter 132: Killing Longxing Technology

When Puke announced that Apple’s A9s chip was a”three-core bionic processor,” Gaotong CEO Molenkov was stunned on the spot.

Tri-core Bionic processor?

Neural engine network?

OK OK!

Good, good, good!

Are you secretly innovating behind my back again?

Now Mollenkopf looked like he had eaten a fly, and his face was a little ugly. He didn’t expect that Apple actually had this trump card.

This is like the end of the semester in college. Six roommates agree not to study. But when you return to the dormitory after a day of drinking and dancing, you find that five roommates are burning the midnight oil to study.

betray!

What a naked betrayal!

I thought there was not much difference between Snapdragon chips and Apple’s A-series chips, but I didn’t expect that Apple was still holding back on a big move.

While Mollenkopf was angry, he also suddenly realized that even though his friends and business colleagues were smiling on the surface, they were actually involved behind the scenes.

If Gaotong Company does not roll up, it may be eliminated!

……

at the same time

the other side

Longxing Technology Company Headquarters

The moment Chen Xing witnessed the announcement of the”Bionic Chip”, he finally felt a heavy pressure in the field of chip design.

Whether it is a baseband chip, a CPU chip, or a SOC system-level chip, he has absolute confidence in his own products.

It is no exaggeration to say that Longxing Technology’s chips have never lost

But in the face of the”neural engine bionic chip” suddenly announced by Puke, I have to say that this result is indeed a bit unexpected.

As Chen Xing’s pressure doubled, he closed his eyes and searched for memories from his past life. However, he remembered clearly that Apple A9s was not a so-called bionic chip!

Could someone intervene?

Don’t say it yet!

It’s really possible!

Now Longxing Technology is gaining momentum, and the brilliant X1 mobile phone has launched a 14-nanometer Qingzhou chip. If Apple wants to regain Longguo’s market share, it must complete the overtake of Qingzhou chips in the chip field.

But how to overtake 14nm?

At present, mainstream commercial chips are all in the 20nm level. Even if Apple mentions 14nm, the performance is at most the same as that of the Qingzhou chip, and it cannot be said to be a breakthrough.

Unless the chip can reach 12 nanometers, otherwise, we can only find another way. Perhaps this is the reason why bionic chips were announced.

Yao Nana looked at Chen Xing, who had closed her eyes, and did not choose to disturb. Apple’s move really surprised everyone.

Can the SOC God chip beat Apple’s A9s chip? It’s hard to judge if she doesn’t understand chip technology.

However, in Longguo Internet, the Weibo platform has already caused a lot of noise.

[Cutting through walls to steal light]:”It’s over, it’s over! Apple is directly making big moves. Can Longxing Technology be able to catch it?”

[Gaming chair and war horse]:”Both are SOC system-level chips. It is now known that Apple A9s is 14nm level. Can God’s chip also reach 14nm level?”

[Qingshan layman]:”I can only say it’s difficult! Maybe everyone doesn’t know enough about SOC system-level chips. Let’s put it this way, it is equivalent to a big family that integrates Kaitian baseband chips, Qingzhou chips and various chip functions. The difficulty of design and manufacturing has skyrocketed!”

[Demons and monsters]:”hiss! According to this, let alone 14 nanometers, God’s chip is already invincible if it has 20 nanometers.”

[General Lingling]:”@Longxing Technology Chen Xing, Mr. Chen, why don’t we change the date of the press conference? Apple can’t afford it!”

Can’t beat it, really can’t beat it!

Now various voices have appeared on the Internet, and they have begun to persuade Chen Xing to change the date of the press conference to avoid the embarrassing situation of being defeated.

Even though netizens don’t understand chip technology, they all know very well that their local companies’ chips started late. It would be great to be far ahead in a single field. SOC system-level chips are really not forced.

However, some netizens believe that it is useless to change the date of the press conference now, and they should just stand at attention and receive a beating.

The performance parameters of Apple A9s made even Ren Guofei and Rebus despair after seeing them. The latter even sent a comforting WeChat message to Chen Xing, saying that the purpose of attracting Western attention has been achieved.

You produce SOC chips, and others produce neural engine bionic chips. How can we fight this?

Can’t fight!

I really can’t fight!

“None of the bosses of the”Domestic Alliance” think that SOC God Chip can compete with them. They all know the details of Longxing Technology.

“buzzing——”

The phone in his pocket vibrated twice, which made Chen Xing, who had closed his eyes and thought, opened his eyes and took out his phone to check his WeChat messages.

three seconds later

He shook his head and turned off the phone

Rebus, Ren Guofei, and Duan Yongping all sent messages of greetings, asking Chen Xing not to be stressed during tonight’s new product launch conference. They really know how to comfort people.

Can’t the SOC God chip be used?

Is Apple’s A9s chip really invincible?

not necessarily!

You have the neural engine, and I also have the AI smart module and the connection module. I really can’t tell who will win today.

……

the other side

Times Square across the ocean

After announcing the performance parameters of Apple’s A9s chip, Puke quietly listened to the cheers and shouts of the surrounding audience.

Two minutes later, he pressed his hand to signal for silence and said calmly:”Let us see what is the global sales price of this iPhone 7 equipped with the world’s first neural engine bionic chip.…”

“despair——”

Another loud snap of fingers

All the LED screens in Times Square have undergone price switching, and the launch price of the new Apple 7 has surrounded everyone here.

Regular version, 4+32G, $810

High-end version, 4+64G, $875

Top version, 6+128G, $999

The appearance of the price once again aroused cheers from the surrounding audience.

“Farke! $810?”

“The regular version is $100 more expensive than the Apple 6puls. This damn phone actually costs me a week’s salary!”

“Okay, I’m going to eat dirt next week”

“With such an expensive price, it seems that it is necessary to go to an offline store to try it out. Is there anyone who can give it a try together?”

“This damn price, but I really need it, I hope my parents can support me, I really can’t live without it”

810 US dollars is converted into Jackie Chan’s national currency. Based on today’s exchange rate of 6.2, the launch price is equivalent to 5,022 yuan. However, due to tariffs, the launch price of Dragon Country has not yet been determined.

However, based on the calculation of 5,022 yuan in the United States, the sale price in the Longguo market will most likely not exceed 6,000 yuan.

loadAdv(7,3);

After the release price of Apple 7 was announced, capital power began to operate, buying traffic and marketing accounts to build momentum, promoting the growth of popularity, and gradually began to dominate the mainstream media hot search lists in various countries around the world.

On the Weibo platform of Longguo, Wang Feng, CEO of Apple Longguo District, also contacted Weibo operations and purchased 30 million views.

The moment the price was announced, hot searches already appeared

The exposure brought by hot searches attracted a large number of comments from netizens

[Cen got a Cen]:”810 U.S. dollars is equivalent to more than 5,000 yuan. Apple mobile phones are still expensive. I really can’t afford it.”

[The rising sun]:”No, buddy, you can’t afford it for 5,000 yuan? I would say that instead of buying a domestic mobile phone that will break after two years, it is better to bite the bullet and buy a good mobile phone that will last for five or six years.”

[Bailegagaga]:”One thing to say, we really don’t worship foreigners. How many domestic mobile phones can last for three years? Apple phones really last three years. My iPhone 4 is still running smoothly. If the screen wasn’t too small, I wouldn’t want to replace it.”

[I can’t see you in the mountains]:”Not the two buddies in front, don’t we have the brilliant X1 mobile phone in China? You wouldn’t want to belittle domestic products just to buy an Apple phone, right?”

[big hippopotamus]:”It’s not that we are disparaging domestic products, but that domestic mobile phones are garbage. Even if you buy a new one and it runs smoothly in the past few months, you will know how laggy it is after using it for half a year.”

[Tucked]:”Quality is not the most critical thing. The key question is why is the Brilliance X1 mobile phone, a domestic product, so expensive? With this money, wouldn’t it be nice for me to buy an Apple mobile phone?”

As the launch price of the Apple 7 mobile phone was revealed, netizens were discussing not whether it was affordable, but whether the domestic product was worth it.

In the current Longguo mobile phone market, Kunpeng Company has withdrawn from the high-end market and switched to operating in the mid-range market. In other words, the only product that competes with Apple’s phones is the Bright X1

A domestic mobile phone sells for 6,999 yuan. Even with money-burning subsidies from shopping platforms, it is still more than a thousand yuan more expensive than an Apple mobile phone. This has made Chen Xing and Longxing Technology have been criticized.

《Why are domestic mobile phones so expensive?》

《I treat you as a domestic product, but you treat me as a general?》

《With this money, it’s better to buy apples!》

Comments like this have been surrounding the brilliant X1 mobile phone during this period, and are also filled with Chen Xing’s private messages.

The idea that domestic production means cheap, and domestic products cannot be sold more expensive than imported products, has long been ingrained.

But Chen Xing doesn’t blame them. Changing the image of domestic brands cannot happen overnight. It requires the joint efforts of domestic brands.

The main reason for the low price of domestic products is largely due to the short development time of Longguo. Foreign goods have always been regarded as high-quality goods and are highly sought after by the public.

Want to change the image of a domestic brand?

You can only speak with your strength!

Regarding the global launch price of the Apple 7 mobile phone, Chen Xing did not have too much trouble in his heart and silently asked Yao Nana to record the data.

As for online speech?

He can’t see it and doesn’t want to understand it

The market will give feedback on whose mobile phone you buy and whose mobile phone is easy to use, rather than competing with others online.

But Chen Xing also has to admit that the launch price of Apple 7 is really low, which is also related to their supply chain.

Long-term supply, the price will be low

When Longxing Technology goes to pick up the goods, no one knows how long this Longguo enterprise can last, and the prices are calculated at normal prices.

As one goes and the other goes, naturally Chen Xing’s side seems less cost-effective.

……

new work time

The key performance parameters of the chip have been introduced, and the launch price has also been announced. According to the usual progress, the Apple 7 launch conference is almost over.

but!

Pants are going to do something tonight too!

Of course, it’s not that he wants to cause trouble, but the consortium behind him wants him to cause trouble. He wants to force Chen Xing’s Longxing Technology to have the strength.

The Western Consortium thinks that you, Chen Xing, are not very confident, so why would you choose the same day as their new product launch?

OK!

I’ll give you a chance to publicize!

They would like to see if the so-called SOC God chip can compete with Apple’s A9s bionic chip!

“despair——”

Pou Ke snapped his fingers, and the LED screen in Times Square returned to its original state, playing the opening Apple 7 promotional video in a loop.

It was at this time that he smiled, followed the instructions of the consortium, and began to declare war on Longxing Technology:”Innovation can always bring different surprises. The above are the configuration parameters of the Apple 7 mobile phone. At the end of the press conference , I want to say an interesting thing”

Interesting things?

This silenced the Times Square audience

From the beginning of the press conference to the end, it only took ten minutes, which can be said to be very fast.

When they heard that something else was announced, the surrounding audience looked at each other, wondering what the Apple phone was going to do.

Just when they were confused, Pou Ke looked at the camera and said calmly:”Apple has always encouraged friends to compete with us. As our biggest competitor in the Longguo market, Longxing Technology, I hope your SOC God chip can bring… Bring us different surprises”

No harsh words, only compliments

It seems to be praised throughout the article, but in fact, Longxing Technology has been promoted to a high position, and the risk factor has been directly raised to the extreme.

“Longxing Technology? What company is this?”

“It can actually compete with Apple’s mobile phone market share. Even if I buy it, I have never heard of this company’s name!”

“SOC God chip? Gift Crab, how dare they take this name, the Lord will punish you, Amen!”

“Please forgive me. I always thought that the Dragon Kingdom was still in the farming era. I didn’t expect that it had already entered the industrial era.”

“I thought they were still farming, but I didn’t expect they already had computers and developed chips. This refreshed my world view. I want to sincerely apologize to them!”

Tens of thousands of people gathered in Times Square were confused. Many of them didn’t actually know about the Dragon Kingdom. Even if some people knew about it in history books, they were misled by the textbooks.

Under the propaganda of the Western world, the Dragon Kingdom has always been a small farming country with extremely slow technological development, and few people can even win the Nobel Prize.

But as Puke mentioned it, these people were all amazed, how could Long Country develop so rapidly, and enter the industrial information age in just a few decades?

In response to this praise, Western media also relaxed restrictions on sensitive words, placing Longxing Technology’s press conference and SOC God chip on the hot search list on Western social platforms

The emergence of God chips has also aroused the anger of many Western people.

they insult

they slander

They attack indiscriminately!

However, some people believe that if this chip dares to have this name, it must have something special about it, and they are looking forward to it.

The feedback from Western social platforms also made the consortium behind Apple chuckle. This is the result they most want to see.

While praising Longxing Technology, it also ruins the popularity of passers-by.

The moment Pou Ke’s words were transmitted back to Longguo through Apple’s global live broadcast room, Chen Xing’s eyes finally became a little confused. This was naked flattery.

Although he seems to be promoting Longxing Technology Company and treating it as a sympathetic competitor, in fact, once the SOC God chip cannot compare with Apple’s A9s chip, it will fall hard no matter how high it is promoted.

Chen Xing also noticed that Pou Ke did not think that, or the consortium behind him did not think that the SOC God chip could compete with Apple’s A9s chip, so he brought a big rhythm at the end of the new product launch conference.
