Technology Empire, I Dominate The Whole World

Norio Sasami felt the same way about President Higashida's anger.

Huaxing was able to obtain the current production line, which was obviously caused by some forces in the beautiful country who were mercenary.

Back then, Xizhi secretly did business with Da Maozi. After being discovered, the punishment and insult Xizhi received next is still an untouchable pain in every Xiyi's heart.

When it was Pretty Country's turn, the investigation went nowhere. How could this kind of differential treatment convince the two of them?

After the two scolded for a while and let out the bad breath in their hearts, they felt better.

But both of them actually know that Sakura Country will be controlled by Pretty Country now and in the future, and must rely on Pretty Country.

As long as this situation exists, they, Xizhi, will not be able to have a real status in front of the beautiful country, they must be honest and obedient.

So, no matter the anger or scolding just now, "Zero 20" is nothing more than a mouthful.

"However, President, I have some good news to report to you."

After the two got tired of scolding, Sasamu Zetian then reported to Dongtian Houconghui.

"Good news? What good news?"

When Higashida Housato heard this, he asked curiously.

"Although Huaxing's chip orders are declining, this point cannot be changed in a short period of time.

"However, Huaxing Group has made a request to us, hoping that we can develop a large-capacity 1-inch hard drive for them!"

Not daring to delay in the slightest, Zuozamu Zetian hurriedly spoke out Huaxing's request.

This is a big matter, and only President Dongtian has the right to make a final decision.

"Huh? Do you need to sign an exclusive agreement?"

Hearing this, Dongtian Houcong thought for a while, then raised his head and asked a question.

Obviously, Higashida Housato was moved.

Compared with semiconductors, Xizhi is also one of the best in the hard disk industry.

Like the large-capacity MP3 currently led by Huaxing, all of the above are 1.8-inch micro-mechanical hard drives.

Xizhi's shipments accounted for more than half of the global market.

This is all thanks to Huaxing, so the two have a very good impression of Huaxing.

Just like just now, the scolding is Meiyin, not Huaxing, which produces its own chips.

"No, but Huaxing hopes to obtain the priority purchase right and the best price treatment for products.

"If the technical indicators of the products we develop can meet Huaxing's requirements, Huaxing promises to purchase no less than 500 million US dollars of hard drives."

"In this regard, Huaxing is willing to sign a formal agreement."

Speaking of this huge number, Norio Sasami looked excited.

That's $500 million in 2001!

This year, the sales of Xizhi Semiconductor, even with Huaxing's purchases, will still be affected by the economic crisis [expected to decline by about 10% compared to last year.

"$500 million?"

"Yes, President Higashida, it is 500 million US dollars!"

"And, based on Huaxing's current market position, I think the $500 million purchase is just the beginning.

"Before flash memory technology has not made breakthroughs, the only way to obtain large-capacity storage space is to rely on mechanical hard drives.

And our Xizhi is the best in this field. "

For this big order, both Higashida Atsutoshi and Sasame Norio are already tempted.

And the order of 500 million US dollars is only more than 10 million yuan.

Compared with Huaxing's huge shipments, it is not much.

"So, what is the opinion of the technical department?"

Higashida Atsutoshi, who had made up his mind, asked with a serious face.

This order with a minimum value of 500 million US dollars, even though he is the president of Xizhi, is still very coveted at this moment.

Once Huaxing's MP3 uses this 1-inch mechanical hard drive, it is conceivable that other manufacturers must and can only follow up.

At that time, the market will not be 500 million US dollars.

1 billion or 2 billion dollars is possible. How can Xizhi let go of such a big cake?

"From the current 1GB capacity to the 5GB capacity required by Huaxing, the research and development investment will be about 50 million US dollars, and the estimated research and development time is 6-12 months."

Obviously, Norio Sasami came prepared and understood everything clearly.

"So, what's your opinion?" Higashida Hosato asked.

"President Dongtian, I think we should agree to Huaxing's request for cooperation. Just Huaxing's order of 500 million US dollars can guarantee that we will not lose money."

"But I believe that the $500 million order is just the beginning!"

Where did not understand the meaning of Atsutoshi Higashida, Sasame Norio said in a firm tone.

If this matter is completed, it will be a great achievement for him, and his status in the entire Xizhi Group will definitely be raised.

The greater the benefits, the higher the risks. If something goes wrong, he must take the blame.

"Well, that's it for now."

"Next, hold a meeting right away to finalize the cooperation with Huaxing as soon as possible, so as not to be preempted by other companies."

Dongbai Houcong stopped hesitating and settled down directly.

The production technology of the 1-inch hard drive is not exclusive to Western Art, if it is slow on my side.

In case, if Huaxing finds other manufacturers for cooperation, wouldn't the cooked duck fly away......

"Xu Ye, why did you hand over such a big order to Xizhi, don't you hate Sakura Country the most?"

Ren Yihan didn't quite understand Xu Ye's decision, and she couldn't help asking when they were dating.

"Actually, I don't like the country of cherry blossoms or the country of beauty, and I hate them all."

"I hate the beautiful country because of the evil it has done to the dragon country now, and I hate the cherry blossom country because of the evil it did before, and now it is acting as a pawn of the beautiful country."

"But you also know that the hard disk technology, Bluestar's strongest companies are either from the country of cherry blossoms or the country of beautiful, but I prefer to say that they are all foreign countries.

Holding a piece of meat for Ren Yihan, seeing her listening carefully, Xu Ye couldn't help but smile.

"Yeah, in the final analysis, our skills are not as good as people's."

After hearing what Xu Ye said, Ren Yihan, who was originally in a good mood, immediately became a little depressed.

Influenced by her father since she was a child, Ren Yihan is not like ordinary girls who like those superficial things, but is very concerned about the development of Longguo.

In such a situation of falling behind, other girls may just listen to it, but she will feel sad and sad.

"Xu Ye, if that's the case, why don't we develop micro hard drives? Don't you want to build a whole industry chain?"

Suddenly, Ren Yihan's eyes lit up, and he made a suggestion.

"Haha, if it weren't for the emergence of flash memory technology, Huaxing would definitely enter the field of mechanical hard drives.

"But in the field of storage, I am more optimistic about the direction of flash memory. The future development direction should be solid-state drives instead of mechanical hard drives."

"The 1.5-inch mechanical hard drive has almost reached its limit. If it is smaller, it will not be cost-effective at all.

"The solid-state hard disk can be made very small and small. Although the current capacity is only a few tens of megabytes, believe me, its development speed will definitely be very fast."

"Especially, when Huaxing is involved in it."

Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, Xu Ye gave Ren Yihan a careful analysis of the ins and outs of his decision.

Knowing the future direction of storage development, Xu Ye certainly will not enter an industry that is doomed to decline.

Why not use this huge order to mislead those storage giants.

As for the effect, Xu Ye didn't hold out much hope.

But being able to delay a little bit is also very good.

For Huaxing, what it needs most is time for development.
