Chapter 186 It’S Better To Buy Than To Build, And It’S Better To Rent Than To Buy.
"Mr. Lu, our company is committed to promoting the development of Longguo wireless technology."
“Since 1998, our company has established a joint research center with your country’s Zhongdu University of Posts and Telecommunications, dedicated to the research of wireless technology, and has now achieved fruitful results.
"In June last year, our company invested 100 million yuan to fund start-ups in Longguo that are engaged in the development and commercialization of CDMA products, applications and services. Our company believes that this investment in the Longguo market will Promote the application of CDMA on a global scale."
"We are very excited to hear that Mr. Lu spent 500 million yuan to establish Blue Star Electronics in March this year and is committed to the development of wireless terminal services, because our company has another partner and close friend."
"We believe that Blue Star Electronics, under the leadership of Mr. Lu, will definitely achieve brilliant achievements like future technology. Our company is happy to carry out in-depth cooperation with Blue Star Electronics on wireless terminal technology to jointly promote the development of wireless technology in Longxing." development of the country.”
Alvin Jacob said with a smile.
In January of this year, Lu Yi sold 10% of Future Technology's equity and cashed out 500 million meters of gold, which spread all over the world.
07 Countless people speculated on what Lu Yi was going to do after cashing out 500 million meters of gold.
Later, in March, the mystery was completely revealed.
With 500 million yuan in gold, Lu Yi founded Blue Star Electronics and wanted to play in the ICT industry.
Lu Yi invested all the 500 million meters of gold cashed out in this. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lu Yi really wants to make something famous in this industry, not just for fun.
Although technically speaking, Blue Star Electronics, which had just been founded, had no foundation at all.
But Blue Star Electronics is rich now!
Although Gaotong has unparalleled technical advantages in related technical fields.
But in 2004, 2G was still mainstream.
Europe's GSM and Gaotong's CDMA are the two major technical standards in the 2G era.
Although Gaotong, which owns CDMA technology, is gaining momentum, it does not yet have the ability to monopolize the market.
Gaotong truly monopolized the market in the 3G era.
Because the world's three major mainstream 3G technical standards, Europe's WCDMA, China's TD-SCDMA and America's CDMA2000, are all closely related to Gaotong's CDMA.
Because Gaotong started out in CDMA and has mastered numerous core technologies and patents.
It can be said that the 3G era "is the era of Gao Zhou.
Longguo officially entered the 3G era and had to wait until January 7, 2009, when the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued three third-generation mobile communications (3G) licenses to Longguo Mobile, Longguo Telecom and Longguo China Unicom.
Before completely monopolizing the market, Alvin Jacob was also afraid that Lu Yi would go to his competitors.
after all.
Compared with CDMA, GSM in Europe does not have to pay high patent fees.
Because GSM was jointly developed by many European countries, it must be open source to achieve collaboration.
After listening to Alvin Jacob's words, Lu Yi rolled his eyes inwardly.
Alvin Jacob listed Gaotong's investment in the Longguo area and joint research and development projects with many universities in the mainland. The euphemistic name is to promote the application and development of CDMA technology in the Longguo area.
In fact, the ultimate goal is to collect patent fees in the Dragon Kingdom for the future 3G and even 4G era.
"Your company's CDMA technology and the GSM technology jointly developed by Europe are currently the most mainstream 2G technologies in the world. We at Blue Star Electronics are very happy to cooperate with your company in related fields."
Lu Yi said.
"So what kind of cooperation method does Mr. Lu intend to adopt?" Alvin Jacob said with a smile, "Our company can provide Blue Star Electronics with a complete set of SoC solutions. Of course, we can also license technology patents."
Qualcomm has two pillar businesses, technology patent licensing (QTL) and chips (QCT).
Needless to say about the chip business, almost all Android smartphones use Gaotong chips.
The technology patent licensing business is also easy to understand, which is to transfer patent authorization to companies in need and collect patent licensing fees.
Lu Yi said: "I hope your company can grant us Blue Star Electronics technology patent license so that Blue Star Electronics can independently design, develop and manufacture CDMA mobile phone chips."
Alvin Jacob looked obviously stunned when he heard this.
Because according to the predictions from their previous high-level meeting, Lu Yi should choose to purchase SoC chips directly from them and solve all problems with one click.
In this way, they can not only make a lot of money on the chip, but also charge technology patent fees.
"Mr. Lu, with all due respect, independent research and development of integrated circuit chips is not something that can be achieved overnight. Your company has no relevant technical foundation and no foundation at all. If you want to independently develop related mobile phone chips, it is simply impossible to succeed. And Our company can completely solve this problem, so why should your company choose to go far away?" said Alvin Jacob.
The meaning behind the words is obvious.
That is, you cannot succeed in self-research, and there is no need to do independent research and development. Just buy my chips.
To sum it up in one sentence: it is better to buy than to build, and it is better to rent than to buy.
"It is true that independent research and development is not an easy road, but I firmly believe that only by choosing this road can we make products we want and users like. This is the goal our company has always pursued." Lu Yi said with a smile. .
Naturally, he would not be fooled by Alvin Jacob with just a few words.
As a reborn person, he is very aware of the consequences of "Buying is worse than building, and renting is worse than buying."
In addition to flower factories in later generations, the fate of most other mobile phone companies in China is in the hands of Gao Tong, and they have no say at all.
Whoever launches Gaotong's chip first will get the market advantage.
Whoever Gaotong supplies with less than 310 will risk running out of food.
If Gaotong does not supply goods to anyone, then that person may face the risk of bankruptcy.
Lu Yi would not leave his life in the hands of Gao Tong.
If it were not for the current helplessness, Lu Yi would not have come to North America to discuss patent licensing with Tong Gao.
Looking at Lu Yi with a firm face, Alvin Jacob was silent for a while and said: "Then I would like to ask Mr. Lu a question, when will your company's first product be released?"
The first product?
It must be launched before the fruit company launches the first generation of Love Crazy in 2007.
"Before 2007 at the latest!" Lu Yi said.
"I bought it!"
After hearing this, Alvin Jacob screamed on the spot.
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"Even if your company obtains our relevant technology authorization, it will never be possible to achieve the goal of launching products before 2007 through self-designed and manufactured chip solutions in just two years. This is simply unrealistic."
"Mr. Lu, if you buy our chips, the first product will be launched this year instead of next year!"
Evan Jacobs does not believe in Longguo’s technological research and development capabilities at all.
Not to mention the newly established Blue Star Electronics, even the entire Dragon Kingdom's basic strength in this field is quite weak. .
