There is also a fast charging module, 20-watt fast charging for three chips costs 130 yuan, and the material cost is only three yuan.
The cost of the fingerprint module is not much, but the price is 130-150!
It’s all huge profits!
This is the significance of launching motherboard chipsets.
It's hard to say how much a friend's mobile phone earns, but Wang Yi can earn several hundred from a motherboard chipset.
Especially high-end models have higher profits, and you can earn more than selling a thousand-yuan machine.
After all, a thousand-yuan machine still needs components, mass production, distribution, sales, and after-sales...
The motherboard group sells design solutions directly and sells components in bulk.
The sales process is simple and you can make money quickly.
No wonder Qualcomm in its previous life would rather give up making mobile phones and devote all its efforts to making chips. It is entirely chips that make more money.
Wang Yi can make a lot of money even if he sells a chip for 150-300. In his previous life, after Qualcomm monopolized high-end chips, he would only make more if he sold a chip for 1,300+.
But now, Wang Yi can feel the happiness of Qualcomm.
It's just Qualcomm, it's going to be painful.
After all, the market is so big!
The cake in the semiconductor market is limited. The more Wang Yi eats, the less there is left for Qualcomm and MediaTek.
Since Qualcomm wants to be killed in advance, Wang Yi will not hold back.
3G chip price reduction, chip tuning service, motherboard set, big moves!
Next, it depends on how Qualcomm responds.
But unfortunately, Qualcomm still knows nothing about Xingyi Technology’s successive big moves.
All the major brands that signed contracts at the trade show tacitly chose to remain tight-lipped.
In the mobile phone industry, time is money.
Making a fortune silently is the way to go.
A number of customers who participated in the exhibition received Xingyi Technology's powerful 4G chips, affordable 3G chips, and motherboard set design plans. After returning home, they immediately promoted research and development in a low-key manner and strived for mass production as soon as possible.
No one would be stupid enough to spread the word everywhere and let more mobile phone manufacturers know about it, so they would also place orders and quickly develop new mobile phones with the motherboard team based on Xingyi Technology to compete with themselves.
This kind of behavior that harms oneself and benefits others will not be done by China Kulian, Meimi O, V, TCL, LG, HTC, Sony, or BlackBerry.
As a result, major brands tacitly chose to keep silent about the order volume and details of the trade fair, and quickly formed teams to develop new mobile phones based on the Kunpeng 902 SOC motherboard group and the Kunpeng 706 SOC motherboard group.
On the next day, after major brands paid part of the payment, they simultaneously received the motherboard chipset technical solution and a small amount of Kunpeng 706 SOC chips, and could directly start the research and development of new mobile phones.
Subsequent payments will be made in advance for the second batch of orders after the first batch of chips is delivered.
Therefore, the outside world knows nothing about the transaction status of the trade fair, but they are not optimistic about it.
Public opinion online is also first-rate:
"The Xingyi Semiconductor 3G and 4G chip exhibition has ended for a day, and there is no news about it. It's not normal."
"Is there anything abnormal? This is too normal. The trading volume must be too low to be announced."
"It is estimated that after all, there is only one 4G chip, and Xingyi Technology cannot support it at all."
"Although I don't want to admit it, this is probably a fact. With only multiple 3G chips and one 4G chip, Xingyi Semiconductor is no match for Qualcomm."
"It's just that the sales volume is too ugly, so no news has been announced. If it hadn't been like this, Xingyi Technology would have been promoting it overwhelmingly."
"Ah? No way? Xingyi Technology's exhibition has really become the backdrop for Qualcomm? This is too tragic!"
"Sure enough, Qualcomm is still stronger, but Xingyi Technology is far behind."
"This is inevitable. Qualcomm has accumulated more than 20 years of technology accumulation. How can Xingyi Technology catch up with it in two or three years? It's simply a joke."
"Yes, it will take at least seven or eight years for Xingyi Technology to fully surpass Qualcomm."
"Seven or eight years is not enough. Don't forget that while Xingyi Technology is making progress, Qualcomm is also developing rapidly. They won't stand still and wait for you to catch up?"
"Alas, the rise of domestic manufacturers has a long way to go. In the next ten years, we still have to look at Qualcomm!"
Seeing these big zodiac animals jumping out again, pointing out the country, and stimulating words, Jacob smiled from ear to ear:
"Sure enough, our greatest achievement is not how advanced semiconductor technology is, but remote breeding technology!"
"Look at these big ones... no, these little cuties are so good at talking!"
"We even saved the navy. Hahaha."
The vice president also smiled with his mouth crooked: "How can the navy be as professional as them?"
"The money-hiring trolls are all using the cliché to get paid to do things, but these big losers admire us from the bottom of their hearts, Qualcomm! There is no comparison!"
"Sure enough, our branding + spiritual brainwashing + remote farming, the trinity of cultural invasion strategic layout, is very successful."
Jacob was smug: "We don't have to do anything, we can just sit back and watch Xingyi Technology's jokes."
"Yes, Xingyi Technology thinks it will be fine if it has a small chip shipment volume and does not announce the results? This will only make it worse!"
"Wait until tomorrow, when Qualcomm's chip exhibition ends and the transaction volume surges, we will announce the results immediately. The magnanimity of Qualcomm and the coercion of Xingyi Technology will be judged!"
"That's right, but if Xingyi Technology doesn't release the data, it will be fine? Do you want to force them?"
"Excuse me? That's okay. A good show always needs a supporting villain, and Xingyi Technology is our supporting villain."
Jacob smiled and said: "What are you going to do?"
"Chairman, we can do this...this way..."
Jacob nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with light: "Okay, very good, let's do it!"
"Xingyi Technology wants to hide away, but we won't let them hide away, hahaha!"
Subsequently, Qualcomm took immediate action.
Xingyi Technology Headquarters.
Looking at the remarks of these big men, George was very puzzled:
"Aren't they compatriots? Why don't they support Xingyi Technology, but instead they praise Qualcomm and belittle Xingyi Technology?"
"Is it because Qualcomm is powerful? But it has been surpassed by Xingyi Semiconductor."
"How can anyone not support national enterprises, but instead criticize foreign companies in various ways?"
"This is unscientific!"
Regarding questions about George's soul, Zhu Changlin was silent and Zhang Chao was silent.
Even Wang Yi didn't know what to say.
He had no choice but to say: "Some things are complicated, and we can only wait for time to solve everything, but this is too slow. For this reason, we need to use absolute strength to completely surpass Qualcomm's strength to crush Qualcomm's chips and crush the big colonists."
The faith of the Son crushes everything!"
George nodded: "Okay, then I will start the research and development of the next generation of chips!"
After the successful development of Kunpeng 902, the George team stopped and began to conduct 28nm and 4G upgrade research and development on Kunpeng 500, Kunpeng 506, and Kunpeng 702, and produced Kunpeng 505, Kunpeng 508, and Kunpeng 706!
Now that everything is done, after a short break, the research and development of the next generation of chips will begin again.
After all, the next-generation chip Kunpeng 906 is already under development by Zhang Chao’s team and is nearing completion.
Kunpeng 906 SOC and Kunpeng 906C will be tape-out next month.
If there are no problems, mass production will begin in December.
As a result, George's team should also start the research and development of a new generation of chips.
Only by constantly moving forward can we ensure continued leadership.
What Wang Yi can do is to use the information gap to help George and Zhang Chao eliminate wrong routes and big pitfalls on the way forward.
For example, the big pit that caused Qualcomm Snapdragon 805, Snapdragon 810, and Snapdragon 820 to overturn continuously, Xingyi Semiconductor can directly avoid it in the early stage of research and development planning!
But Qualcomm needed three years and three generations of products to try and make mistakes one by one!
"The next generation chip, internally codenamed Kunpeng 910, still uses the 28nm process." Wang Yi said, looking at George: "What are your plans for Kunpeng 910?"
George took out his notebook: "Chairman, Kunpeng 906 is already eight-core A53 2.0G clocked. To put it bluntly, we have reached the extreme in the A53 architecture and cannot continue to upgrade."
"As for upgrading the ten-core A53, the main frequency is increased to 2.3G... This doesn't make much sense."
"Kunpeng 910 SOC must have the A57 core!"
Wang Yi and Zhang Chao nodded, this is inevitable.
George continued: "The current mainstream eight-core architecture is 4 A57 plus 4 A53 small cores, but I am worried that 28nm will not be able to handle it. It may overturn."
Wang Yi spoke decisively: "28nm will definitely not be able to hold down four A57 large cores, don't even think about it!"
"So the problem is troublesome. If you don't use the A57 big core, you can only use the A53 small core. The performance will not improve, and it will be useless to make it ten cores. If you use the A57 big core, 28 nanometers will not be able to hold it down!"
Seeing George's frown, Wang Yi also fell into deep thought.
Four A57s plus four A53 small cores cannot support 28nm, let alone 20nm.
The previous Snapdragon 810 was built on a 20nm process, with 4 A57s and 4 A53 small cores. The result was that it overturned beyond recognition, and its actual performance was not as good as the previous generation Snapdragon 801!
Four A57 large cores, even the 20nm rollover is so serious. If it uses 28nm, it will be even worse. You don’t know how to die.
But without the A57 large core, the performance will indeed not improve.
Difficult!
Wang Yi sighed: "If the six-core architecture of Kunpeng 902 is adopted. Four A53 small cores + two A57 large cores are used, and the main frequency of the large core should be lower."
"Six-core architecture..."
Both George and Zhang Chao fell into deep thought. Although it does not conform to the mainstream model of 8-core architecture, it is still an idea!
"28nm cannot support four A57 large cores, but for dual-core A57, if the main frequency is lowered, there is still hope."
George thought: "If we increase the main frequency of A53 to 2.3G Hz, the four high-frequency A53 small cores can handle most daily applications."
"When playing large-scale games, the A53 can no longer handle it. Then turn on an A57 large core. While the performance is powerful, the heat can also be controlled. When one A57 overheats, you can remove it and replace it with another A57 large core.
.In this way, the two A57 large cores are turned on alternately, thereby reducing heat generation and power consumption. As for the six cores being fully turned on, it can only be used when running scores."
In fact, mobile phones don’t eat much CPU, but more GPU.
Even when playing games, I mainly rely on the GPU.
The six-core fully enabled mode is only useful when running scores. In daily use, the six-core fully enabled mode is almost never used.
Wang Yi nodded: "This design is good, it uses four A53 small cores + two A57 large cores."
Afterwards, several people discussed the main frequency again.
The final decision was that Kunpeng 910 SOC and CPU adopt quad-core A53 2.3G Hz + dual-core A57 1.7G Hz.
The quad-core A53 small core has low power consumption and low heat. It will not generate too much heat when it is pushed to 2.3G high frequency, and the power consumption will not be too high. It can cope with most application scenarios and is a main player.
The A57 generates a lot of heat. Even with dual cores, in most cases only one is turned on and it still generates good heat. Therefore, the main frequency is limited to 1.7G, just for fear of overheating, and 28nm cannot handle it.
It can be said that Wang Yi has very pure requirements for the Kunpeng 910 CPU module and must be very restrained and conservative!
From the quad-core 2.0G A57 of the Snapdragon 810, it was reduced to the dual-core A57, and the main frequency was also reduced to 1.7G.
In fact, this architecture is the same as the Snapdragon 808, except that the main frequency of the A57 is lower than the 2G Hz of the Snapdragon 808.
There is no way, the Snapdragon 808 is a 20nm process, and the Kunpeng 910 is a 28nm process, so the main frequency of the large core has to be further weakened.
What's more, the CPU has excessive performance, and the 1.7G main frequency is enough. If it is higher, it will easily overturn.
When the 14nm process breaks through, there will be no problem with 4-core A57+4-core A53, but 28nm will not hold up.
"What about the GPU part?" Wang Yi continued to ask.
George has already considered: "The GPU of Kunpeng 906 is Mali-T658 mp6, a six-core GPU. The Kunpeng 910 will definitely need to be significantly upgraded. Even if it is upgraded to Mali-T658 mp8, an eight-core GPU, there will be little improvement. I recommend going directly to arm.
The latest released high-end GPU architecture, Mali-T760, achieves MP6, six-core GPU!"
Zhang Chao also agreed: "Compared to the eight-core GPU of Mali-T658 mp8, although Mali-T760 mp6 only has six cores, it has a higher-end architecture, stronger performance, and higher energy efficiency. If Mali-T760 had not just been released, we would have
Kunpeng 906 should go directly to Mali-T760 mp4!"
"Then use Mali-T760 mp6, six-core GPU." Wang Yi made the final decision:
"And unlike Mali-T658, which has up to 8 cores, Mali-T760, as the latest high-end GPU architecture, can have up to 16 cores! Our Kunpeng 910 uses Mali-T760 MP6 six cores to accumulate experience, and the next-generation Kunpeng 920 will directly use Mali-
T760 MP10 ten cores, or even 12 cores.”
Kunpeng 910 is now under development, and if it goes quickly, it will be on the market next fall.
Kunpeng 920 began research and development in the second half of 2014 and was launched in the first half of 2015.
The GPU must use Mali-T760.
As for ARM's next-generation GPU Mali-T880 and CPU's A72 architecture, they were both released in early 2015 and can only be used in Kunpeng 930.
More importantly, Mali-T760 has a maximum of 16 cores. Once you master it, you can add cores and create a series of upgraded vest models.
Of course, this is just a preliminary plan. Wang Yi may make adjustments in the future and will not release two flagship chips every year.
On the contrary, Wang Yi plans to let the George team continue to promote the research and development of a new flagship chip every year.
Zhang Chao’s team stopped and started developing its own architecture!
Qualcomm and Apple, for example, both use autonomous architectures. Although they are pseudo-autonomous architectures based on Arm's magic modification, they are indeed more powerful than the public version architecture in the future.
Xingyi Technology also has to develop its own architecture.
But the difference is that what Wang Yi wants to develop is not based on a pseudo-autonomous architecture modified by ARM. Instead, he starts from the bottom to develop his own instruction set and his own architecture!
In the past few years, I have used ARM's V8 instruction set and public version architecture to accumulate experience. Later, I put aside ARM and independently developed the instruction set and independently developed a new architecture. This is the right way.
Especially after the XOS system becomes larger, there will be no problems with its independent instruction set and independent architecture.
After all, Wang Yi has obtained the permanent license for the ARM V8 architecture, but what about the future V9 architecture?
Once the technology war breaks out, Xingyi Technology will definitely not be able to obtain the V9 architecture authorization.
Friends and businesses are all using the V9 architecture, and Xingyi Technology continues to use the V8 architecture, which is too far behind.
Instead of doing this, Wang Yi might as well do comprehensive self-research in advance and develop his own instruction set and his own architecture!
And this heavy burden still falls on Zhang Chao.
It's just that Zhang Chao's team is bound to be very time-consuming to develop a new independent instruction set and architecture.
Let alone one year, it may take two or three years to produce results.
But it's okay, Wang Yi can afford to wait.
At that time, let George's team continue to develop ARM V8 architecture chips and maintain normal updates without delaying use.
The year after tomorrow... no, this must start as soon as possible!
After Zhang Chao's team completed the Kunpeng 906, they began to develop their own architecture and instruction set!
That’s right, we’ll start at the end of this year or the beginning of next year!
Do this sooner rather than later.
The subsequent Kunpeng 910, 920, and 930 will be handed over to George.
Zhang Chao’s team has spent the past few years developing Xingyi Technology’s own instruction set and architecture!
Although difficult, it is essential.
Even if it takes three years to get it done, it’s worth it!
In this way, even if it is completely destroyed in 2017-2018, Xingyi Technology can still use its self-developed architecture and instruction set to flip the table and give the global semiconductor giants two big blows!
Let Lao Migan stare!
However, Wang Yi did not speak out directly about these plans.
Take everything slowly.
At the moment, the most critical thing for Zhang Chao's team is the research and development of Kunpeng 906. Once Kunpeng 906 is completed, they will immediately start developing their own architecture and instruction set based on the XOS system.
Once this instruction set and architecture are developed, it will not only be used on mobile phones, tablets, and TVs, but also on PCs.
By then, the XOS system ecosystem has been gradually improved, and XOS system applications can also be used on the PC, even if they are not compatible with Windows, it doesn't matter.
Since it needs to be cut, cut it completely and replace it comprehensively.
Although the technological war has not yet begun, Wang Yi has already begun to mobilize his troops and make all preparations.
If we wait until the technological war breaks out and we are defeated before we start preparing, it will be too late and too passive.
As a reborn person, if you are passive to that point, it would be such a failure.
On the contrary, Wang Yi will start at the end of this year to mention the three or four-year plan!
Just as Wang Yi was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter!"
Jian Ziyan walked in: "Chairman, Qualcomm has acted like a monster again."
"Oh, what did they say again?" Wang Yi became interested.
The higher Qualcomm jumps now, the harder he will fall tomorrow!
"Qualcomm is hyping up tomorrow's chip exhibition and seems to be sure of victory. It also bluntly stated that Qualcomm is full of heart and openness. At next year's exhibition, major media will be directly invited to participate and witness."
"They also said that they would announce the chip sales on the spot, and all users and fans would witness the brilliant sales of Qualcomm chips and the full arrival of the 4G era."
"Invite all major media to witness it and announce the sales volume on the spot..."
Wang Yi smiled: "Hahaha, Qualcomm is really confident, too confident."
George was also in a good mood: "Yes, these idiots don't know that we have already won a large number of orders. When the media arrives tomorrow, if the transaction volume is not good in the end, Qualcomm will not be able to step down."
"Haha, the transaction volume will definitely not be better. After all, we have won most of the customers, and Qualcomm can only eat soup."
Zhang Chao said with a smile: "It's just a pity that they still use soup as meat!"
Jian Ziyan nodded: "That's right, then we won't reply?"
"No, reply. You must reply!" Wang Yixiao said.
"How to reply?"
“Wish Qualcomm chips great sales!”
Wang Yi is full of sincerity.
"Hahaha!" Zhang Chao and George burst into laughter, knowing Wang Yi's plan.
How can this be a blessing? It is completely murderous and heart-breaking.
"Okay, Chairman, I'll make arrangements right away." Jian Ziyan responded quickly with a wonderful expression.
Just waiting to witness Qualcomm building a tall building, banqueting guests, and waiting for the building to collapse...
Soon, the official account of Xingyi Technology posted a news:
[Wishing Qualcomm Expo and Chip Sales a success!]
As soon as this news came out, the whole network was shocked, and everyone was confused:
"What kind of operation is Director Wang doing? Not announcing his sales volume, but wishing Qualcomm chips a big sale?"
"I can't understand it, I can't understand it at all."
"Is it possible that Chairman Wang has given up, stopped competing with Qualcomm, and demanded peace?"
"That's not the case. Apple and Samsung couldn't make Chairman Wang bow down. It's just Qualcomm, what does it mean?"
"What? Qualcomm is not better than Samsung?"
"You're talking nonsense. Qualcomm is better than Samsung in SOC chip R&D, but when it comes to chip production, mobile phone production, memory chip R&D and mass production, screen R&D and mass production, etc., Samsung is top-notch. Who does Qualcomm count?"
"Yes, Samsung is so versatile. When will our country produce such a powerful company?"
"Don't bow to Qualcomm? Then why send such sincere blessings?"
"The fewer words, the bigger the matter. There is an article behind it, and we will know the result tomorrow."
"However, Qualcomm is really open and transparent. It directly invites the media to attend and displays the trading volume on the spot. It is not like Xingyi Technology, which hides it."
"There is no other way, so what if we don't hide it? With such a small trading volume, it would be a joke to announce it!"
…
Looking at these public opinions, Rebus couldn't help but laugh: "Qualcomm, Qualcomm, this time is going to be a joke."
Lao Huang also had a complicated look on his face: "Everyone thought the Xingyi Technology trade fair was a joke, but it was actually a joke. On the other hand, when we looked at the Qualcomm trade show, everyone thought it was a joke, but it turned out to be a big deal!"
"Hahaha, times have changed!" Lao Bai was also filled with emotion.
"Fortunately, we made the transition early and directly gave up Samsung processors and chose Xingyi Technology, otherwise we would have been in big trouble."
"Yes, even Qualcomm is no match for Xingyi Technology, let alone Samsung!"
Qualcomm headquarters.
Seeing the sudden blessing from Xingyi Technology, everyone at Qualcomm was also confused.
"Xingyi Technology wishes us great chip sales!"
Jacob murmured to himself: "What kind of trick is this?"
"Among the thirty-six strategies, there is no one like this!"
Others also shook their heads:
"I can't understand, I really can't understand."
"But with Wang Yi's behavior, he won't sincerely bless you."
Jacob sighed: "No matter what, tomorrow's exhibition will be a highlight in the history of Qualcomm chip development, and it will also be the beginning of Xingyi Semiconductor's tragedy."
"Does Xingyi Technology still need a reply?"
"Reply, you must reply, and you must be polite. Just reply, thank Xingyi Technology for its blessing, and look forward to the exchange of results at Xingyi Semiconductor Exhibition..."
"Exchange of results? Publicly forcing Xingyi Technology to announce sales?"
Chapter completed!
