Rebirth of the Internet: Starting from Games

Chapter 519: Thirsty for talents, visit the thatched cottage three times

After Apple executives watched the Orange Technology press conference, they had disagreements over the pricing of Apple's new generation of mobile phones, which led to the postponement of the press conference.

Three days later, in the early morning, Apple's press conference was held under the spotlight.

Apple has released a number of new products, including new versions of iPodnano and Touch players.

Before the announcement of the new generation of mobile phones, the relevant content of the appStore was grandly introduced. Coincidentally, it cannot be said to be exactly the same as the OAS (app store) at the Orange Technology conference a few days ago, but it can only be said to be completely similar.

The same software ecosystem platform, familiar opening strategy, and even the share ratio is exactly the same, 70% to 30%.

It makes domestic viewers watching the live broadcast feel familiar. Is Apple a foreign penguin?

Then Jobs announced the new generation of mobile phone iPhone 3G, which did not change much in appearance, except that the iOS system underwent a series of upgrades and was equipped with a 3G chip.

But when the price came up at 3599 yuan, everyone rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

Is this still the superior Apple of the past? Not only is the price of the new generation of mobile phones higher than before, why has the price been reduced by 400 yuan?

Long live Orange Technology!

Perhaps influenced by the Orange Technology conference, major mobile phone manufacturers then gathered together to release new phones.

This October has become a smartphone release theme month.

Nokia released two smartphones N97 and E63 in one go.

The former is like a small computer, with a side-sliding cover and a full keyboard, while the latter is designed with a full keyboard, the body is made of plastic material, has a first-class feel, and is mainly used for business applications.

LG, Sony Ericsson, and Samsung are not far behind and have released new smartphones one after another.

However, these manufacturers have never lowered their proud heads. They still have a structure that combines virtual and real, that is, a touch screen plus physical buttons. Samsung has not even given up touch pen accessories.

The entire smartphone market is divided into two camps, the virtual button full-screen faction represented by Orange and Apple, and the physical button faction represented by traditional mobile phone giants.

The two camps face each other across the river, and the companies between the camps are also fighting openly and covertly.

The mobile phone field has been very lively recently.

Equally lively is Chen Hao. Qiu Ciyun only has one condition, that is, he has absolute say in SMIC's future development strategy. After explaining it, Zhang Rujing, who had been opposed before, finally stopped objecting. After all, he has a financial backer this time. Everything is very different.

After receiving double assurances from Zhang Chen, Qiu Ciyun was quickly settled.

Chen Hao learned about Liang Mengsong's outstanding resume from Zhang Rujing.

This person worked for AMD in the United States in his early years. By 1992, the 40-year-old Liang Mengsong joined TSMC and served as an engineer and senior R&D director. He helped TSMC get rid of Samsung and Intel, and achieved success in a short period of time. The first 14nm process chip was launched by TSMC, the inventor of nearly 500 patents.

If Zhang Rujing is a factory-building maniac who can quickly assemble all the chips with one hand, then Liang Mengsong is a kaleidoscope of research and development in the chip field.

TSMC’s legal affairs officer said in an interview:

"No one in the company can match the breadth and depth of Liang Mengsong's grasp of TSMC's advanced manufacturing processes."

The outside world may not know that in a high-tech industry such as semiconductors, the "learning curve" is very important, because every step forward requires a large investment of money, often in research and development. If it fails, the money will be wasted. It's still secondary, the time spent is the key.

The other party is walking on the right path and overcoming obstacles, while you are struggling deeper and deeper in the quagmire, and the gap between the two parties is ultimately incalculable.

But if there is "expert guidance" on the research and development road and tells you that this road has been passed by TSMC and is a dead end, then you don't need to invest money in the wrong road at all, which will greatly reduce your "learning curve".

And Liang Mengsong is this kind of master, a word is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold.

<divclass="contentadv">With him, SMIC's chip development cycle can be shortened by at least a few years.

After hearing this, Chen Hao took in a breath of the winter breath coming from Erbin. Lu Bu was really frightened.

Just when he invited him with the attitude of "visiting the thatched cottage three times", he found that the situation was not simple.

SMIC can see how important Liang Mengsong is, and Samsung can also see it.

And the advantage over SMIC is that Liang Mengsong's wife is of Korean descent. As the saying goes, the first to come first gets the moon, and the love on the pillow is the most touching.

But Chen Hao, relying on his shamelessness, took advantage of Zhang Rujing's banner, deceived and deceived him, visited the thatched cottage three times in person, and sincerely invited Liang Mengsong's family to come to the capital for a visit.

They even don’t hesitate to include transfers and round-trip transfers.

The CEO of Qianyi Group turns into an escort tour guide, accompanying him to eat, play and chat.

Private jets, extended-length Lincolns, top hotels, Chen Hao provided all the best treatment and entertainment, and he spent most of the month visiting the scenic spots and historic sites in the capital. Chen Hao did not mention any official matters at all, and just treated Liang Mengsong's family as friends and family. His efforts will eventually be rewarded, and his gains will be rewarded. The goodwill of their entire family.

Liang Mengsong watched his family come with full expectations and return happily. In fact, he had been aware of Chen Hao's purpose for most of his life.

Even so, how many people can achieve Chen Hao's level? If this kid hadn't gotten married, he would have wanted to introduce his daughter to him.

In fact, at TSMC, he has gradually been left out, all because of factional disputes, because besides him, Liang Mengsong, there is another general at TSMC who has been vying for the position of vice president, but he, who has contributed all his vitality to TSMC for more than ten years, has been unable to do so. The one who was given up.

Instead, he was assigned a research and development direction that he was not interested in.

Therefore, Liang Mengsong has been holding his breath in his heart. As deep as his love was before, he hates her now.

A good bird chooses a tree to roost in. Here TSMC is ignorant of people, but over there SMIC is full of sincerity. The choice is clear at a glance.

Just like that, before Samsung could reach out, Liang Mengsong was intercepted by Chen Hao.

A week later, Liang Mengsong resolutely submitted his resignation, regardless of the efforts of the head of TSMC to stay.

Seeing that November was coming soon, Chen Hao took the opportunity to frequently communicate with Liu Qiangdong and described the relevant ideas for the e-commerce shopping festival. This shocked Liu Qiangdong. The two hit it off and then communicated about the specific preparations for the shopping festival.

Dongzi's execution ability is good, so he immediately let go of his brothers below on JD.com and worked hard.

In late October, Liang Mengsong brought his family back to the mainland and settled in the magical capital. In addition to himself, he also brought dozens of old troops who followed him.

Chen Hao directly gave the other party one of the Tomson first-grade products worth tens of millions that he had just bought, as well as non-competition compensation worth nearly 100 million yuan.

When the compensation is in place, the non-competition agreement is like waste paper in Chen Hao's eyes.

Chen Hao's efforts were not in vain. In exchange, Liang Mengsong handed him a personnel list.

Looking at the dense personnel list above, Chen Hao couldn't help but feel a little numb.
