Chapter 416: Qualcomm is going to cut off supply? Xingyi Cloud Data Center is delivered!

Due to patent restrictions, the Xingyi mobile phone will not be available globally next year, but the chips can be sold!

Sell ​​Kunpeng 510 to brands such as HTC, Sony, LG, Motorola, and Lenovo.

Let them go to India and grab overseas markets.

Xingyi Technology makes money by selling chips and other accessories, which can be considered a roundabout way to internationalize!

And it's entirely possible.

Qualcomm APQ 8064 does not come with a baseband, so you need to buy a matching baseband.

The price of Qualcomm baseband was cut down to US$11 by Wang Yi.

A set of 8064 chip + baseband chip, 11+12 dollars, a total of 23 dollars, about 150 yuan. It can only be said to be a bargain.

But the price Qualcomm charges to other friendly companies is much higher. The 8064 chip costs US$20, and the bundled baseband chip costs US$17, totaling US$37 for a set, or about 245 yuan!

The Kunpeng 510 SOC uses a 40nm process, which is much cheaper than Qualcomm's 28nm process.

The baseband is integrated, and the cost is reduced by half again. In addition, since it is self-researched and produced, the output is large, and the total cost is only about 30 yuan.

Qualcomm 8064 needs to be outsourced to a third party. The cost and foundry fee of 28nm chips are more expensive, at least $50+.

Add to that the 28nm baseband which costs another 40+, and the total cost reaches 90+, which is more than three times that of Xingyi Technology's Kunpeng 510.

Qualcomm sells it for 245 yuan per set, while Kunpeng 510 sells it for 210 yuan or even 185 yuan, making more money.

Kunpeng 510 has a lower price, plus tuning services, and is a 64-bit processor. Its actual performance is not inferior to 8064, and is even slightly stronger. It can definitely grab a large number of orders from Qualcomm!

Thinking of this, Wang Yi became restless.

Qualcomm can’t just take all the profits from chips!

After being reborn, can Qualcomm still make all domestic mobile phone brands work for Qualcomm with the Snapdragon chip like in the previous life? Make money for Qualcomm?

This is impossible!

Wang Yi must snatch the order back from the tiger's mouth.

Even if domestic brands are allowed to work for chip manufacturers, they have to work for Xingyi Semiconductor!

Not only Kunpeng 500 and 510 are for sale, but next year's Kunpeng 700 will also be for sale.

Kunpeng 700 and Qualcomm 800 both use 28nm process technology. The only difference is that Kunpeng 700 does not have an integrated baseband, while Qualcomm 800 does.

It is precisely because Kunpeng 700 does not have an integrated baseband that the design difficulty is much lower, and it can focus on GPU and surpass Qualcomm's GPU.

没错,鲲鹏700直接采用了mali-T658 mp4四核GPU,比高通800的Adreno 330 GPU还要强不少。

Adreno 330 GPU的性能很强大,比mali-T604强不少,和mali-T628 mp6 6核GPU差不多,但远不如mali-T658 mp4的四核GPU!

As for why not just make the Kunpeng 700’s GPU 6-core or even 8-core?

Of course, it leaves room for upgrades, targeting Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 at the end of next year!

高通2013年11月份先发布了更强大的805,2014年2月份才发布了较弱的骁龙801。

Wang Yi also has to prepare a backup plan!

Using the same 28nm process, Kunpeng 700's GPU crushes Qualcomm 800, and the CPU is at least -.

It can be said that except for the lack of baseband, the performance of Kunpeng 700 completely surpasses Qualcomm 800!

On Kunpeng 700, Wang Yi played a game of Tian Ji horse racing.

If both have integrated basebands, the research and development difficulty will be too great, and Kunpeng 700 will definitely not be able to outperform Qualcomm 800.

Therefore, Wang Yi chose to use an external baseband solution for Kunpeng 700 to improve GPU performance, making the performance of Kunpeng 700 surpass Qualcomm 800!

To cover everything means to not cover anything.

Since Qualcomm 800 has an integrated baseband, its GPU cannot be stronger and its frequency cannot be higher. Otherwise, it will fail like 810 and its performance will be worse than Kunpeng 700.

By then, Qualcomm 800 integrated baseband will have baseband advantages, while Kunpeng 700 will have stronger performance advantages, so they each have their own strengths.

In this way, Kunpeng 700 can also be sold to reliable third-party customers like Kunpeng 500 and Kunpeng 510.

In a moment, Wang Yi made a plan.

More than ten years later, HiSilicon will become independent and sell mobile phone chips to third-party customers.

It only means that chips have to be sold outside, and the path of self-use is narrowing.

More importantly, next year Nvidia will not be able to suppress Qualcomm, so Wang Yi will have to take action himself and use Xingyi Semiconductor to suppress Qualcomm!

By then, Xingyi Semiconductor and Qualcomm will be in direct competition!

As for the result of the competition, one person will definitely die.

Well, Nvidia is dead!

When the eldest and the second oldest fight, the third oldest always gets the loser!

Even without the Xingyi chip, Nvidia's mobile phone chips can still thrive for two more years.

Now with the Xingyi chip, which is competing head-on with Qualcomm, Nvidia's mobile phone chips will only fail faster.

After all, Nvidia's baseband is too poor, it does not support CDMA, it is inherently disabled and it is difficult to achieve great things.

Qualcomm was unaware of Wang Yi's deployment.

The issue of the power management chip alone has made everyone at Qualcomm very angry.

Jacob couldn't sit still anymore and decisively convened a high-level meeting:

"Everyone knows what happened recently. Xingyi Semiconductor actually came up with the x-charge fast charging standard and developed the fast charging chip C1 and the power management chip P1. As a result, more than a dozen mobile phone manufacturers including Samsung, Sony, and HTC all placed orders with Xingyi Technology, which seriously impacted the sales of our Qualcomm power management chips."

"You know, Samsung, Sony and other companies were originally Qualcomm's customers, and they all bought our power management chips. We can earn tens of billions of dollars every year from this business alone."

"Now, all the customers have been snatched away by Xingyi Technology. Next year's flagship mobile phones will all be equipped with Xingyi Technology's power management chips and fast charging chips as standard! However, the sales of our Qualcomm power management chips have dropped sharply, and we have suffered heavy losses!"

"And the 5-watt power management chips in the warehouse are also overstocked due to the decline in sales, which makes the situation worse."

Hearing this, everyone's faces darkened.

No one expected that Qualcomm, which had always been stealing other people's customers, would actually have its customers stolen!

This is incredible.

Thanks to CDMA, Qualcomm is extremely strong.

It started as a small business and overturned the chip giant Texas Instruments to become a chip giant!

But now, it has been snatched away by Xingyi Semiconductor.

Can this be tolerated?

A group of senior executives started to curse:

"Xingyi Technology is going too far. Doesn't it use our chips? Cut off their supply!"

"Yes, the Xphone 2 is selling like hot cakes. We will just cut off the supply to Xingyi Technology and cause them to suffer heavy losses!"

"Only in this way can they face reality and know the strength of Qualcomm."

"???" Jacob was stunned. He looked at the directors who spoke in disbelief: "Are your brains full of water? You said such nonsense!"

Several directors were speechless for a moment: "..."

Jacob was speechless: "Xingyi Technology is our rival, but also our super big customer. Xingyi Xphone 1 and Xingyi Tablet X1 both use our Qualcomm dual-core processor. They have purchased 1.3 million dual-core chips from us. More than 40 million -nanometer baseband chips. And they are still purchasing! Our dual-core chips are supported by orders from Xingyi Technology, and we are making a lot of money."

"If we dare to stop supplying APQ 8064 chips, Xingyi Technology will immediately stop purchasing dual-core chips, and NVIDIA's tegra 2 will quickly make up for it and grab our orders!"

"Similarly, if we dare to stop supplying 8064, Xingyi Technology will immediately replace it with NVIDIA's Tegra 3!"

"This..." Everyone was silent, but felt aggrieved in their hearts.

If other customers dare to snatch Qualcomm chips, we will cut off their supply, impose sanctions and give them a beating.

But a big customer like Xingyi Technology is so powerful that it is impossible to sanction it.

Once sanctions are imposed, Xingyi Technology will be replaced by Nvidia, but Qualcomm will suffer heavy losses.

但依旧有人不服气:“xphone 2是1080P的屏幕,星逸科技即便换上英伟达tegra 3,也没用。tegra 3带不动1080P!”

"Yes, so if we stop supplying them, Xingyi Technology's hot-selling Xphone 2 will be finished, and we will inevitably suffer heavy losses."

"Or, we can compromise and keep supplying. Then the price of APQ8064 will increase. The price we give to Xingyi Technology is too cheap. It's almost a bargain. We have to raise the price."

Jacob sighed: "You have a good idea, but it is not realistic at all."

"We have delivered 8064 million 3 chips, which is enough for Xingyi Technology to sell for several months. Nvidia's Tegra 1080 cannot support 3P. If we stop supplying, subsequent Tegra 4 will not be able to support it. But don't forget, Nvidia's next generation Tegra 1 is coming soon. It will be released at CES 7 on January 2013 next year."

“40纳米的tegra 3带不动1080P,28纳米的tegra 4呢?也带不动吗?”

"This..." Everyone was silent again.

As Jacob said, if the Tegra 3 can't carry it, the next generation Tegra 4 will definitely be able to carry it.

The vice president took a deep breath and said, "The chairman is right. Once we stop supplying Xingyi Technology, the 3000 million APQ 8064s that have been delivered will be enough for Xingyi Technology to survive until January next year. By then, Xingyi Technology will switch to NVIDIA's Integra 4. Qualcomm will be in trouble. Not only will we lose tens of millions of orders, but we will also force Xingyi Technology, a major customer, to go to NVIDIA. This is equivalent to cutting off our own arms! This is not acceptable."

Jacob nodded. "Cut off the supply to Xingyi Technology, which will only cause Qualcomm to suffer heavy losses. This is absolutely unacceptable. On the contrary, not only can we not cut off the supply, not only can we not raise the price, but we must continue to serve Xingyi Technology well and give priority to the supply of 8064 chips to Xingyi Technology to prevent them from switching to purchasing NVIDIA's Tegra 4 next year!"

"This year, Xingyi Technology's Xphone 1Pro, Xingyi Tablet X1Pro, and Xingyi TV have purchased 1.5 million NVIDIA Tegra 3 chips! These were originally our orders, but because our quad-core flagship was half a year slower than NVIDIA, they were all snatched away by NVIDIA!"

"Next year, this situation will never be allowed to happen again!"

Whenever Jacob thought of this, he felt heartbroken.

Without orders from Xingyi Technology, Nvidia would not make much money from its mobile phone chips.

But thanks to the 1.5 million order from Xingyi Technology, NVIDIA's Integra 3 sold out directly and made billions of dollars!

So much so that Huang has tasted the sweetness and continues to develop the next generation of Tegra 4 and continue to grab orders from Qualcomm.

"Yes, not only can we not stop supplying Xingyi Technology, we must also serve Xingyi Technology well. We must not let NVIDIA's Tegra 4 continue to steal our Qualcomm 800 orders next year!"

"We really can't afford to offend Xingyi Technology, so we at Qualcomm are just going to have to endure this humiliation in vain? Are we just going to put up with it?"

"What else can we do? Xingyi Technology is our rival and a huge customer. If they try to steal our customers, we can only swallow our anger."

"Yes, after all, power management chips are not valuable, but mobile phone chips are very valuable. We can only bear it and not lose the big picture for the small."

Jacob sighed, "That's right. We can't bear the current situation. Of course, Qualcomm can't admit defeat. We must develop a 10-watt fast-charging chip as soon as possible and develop Qualcomm's fast-charging standard. Then we will quickly launch it and win back our big customers!"

"That makes sense. We will take it back with our strength. It's just normal business competition. Xingyi Technology can't say anything. When the time comes, they will have to buy our mobile phone chips and continue to buy them."
