Chapter 29 "Cooperation" with Waveguide
At the same time, at Transsion Bao'an No. 2 Production Base, Factory No. 3.
Wearing dustproof goggles and a dustproof suit, Wang Shangzhong looked at the equipment in front of him and revealed a familiar smile.
The equipment that accompanied him is now operating at full speed in this brand-new factory.
That's right, the system not only rewarded the equipment, but also acted as a human trafficker once again.
At the entrance, workers dump entire boxes of used mobile phones into the feed chute; at the exit, disassembled parts are slid out from different pipes: motherboards, screens, batteries, cameras, casings...
Even more amazing is that transparent sealed chamber.
After being disassembled, the chip passes through there, and the fine scratches and oxide layer on the surface disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the metal contacts become shiny and new again.
"Mr. Wang, the test report is out." The technician ran over with the test report.
"The disassembly speed is 21500 per hour, which meets the expected standard."
Chip repair is perfectly fine.
After enhancement at the enhancement center, the chips underwent a significant improvement. We sampled and tested some chips, and the average performance increased by 21.3%, while power consumption decreased by 18.7%.
After the repair, the chip's clock speed was slightly increased, which is consistent with the difference in manufacturing process. Considering the inherent differences in chip quality, performance is improved by at least 18%. For the same task, power consumption is reduced by nearly one-fifth – this demonstrates Xinghai Technology's strength.
Shen Fei walked into the factory. He didn't look at the production line that was in operation, but went straight to ask Wang Shangzhong.
"Shangzhong, how many can this production line process in a day?"
"The designed daily production capacity is 48 units, but it should actually reach 50." Wang Shangzhong knew these figures by heart, and because of the system, he had a natural loyalty to Shenfei.
"But the problem now is... there isn't that much inventory. Huaqiangbei can only collect a few hundred thousand units a day, so the equipment can't run at full capacity. It's a complete waste."
"Okay." Shen Fei nodded. "I'll figure out a solution to this problem. Once the money is in place, the supply issue will be resolved quickly."
As if Shen Fei's words had a magical power, his phone rang the moment he finished speaking.
Caller ID: Li Xiangdong.
The two sides were locked in a fierce battle, and this bastard's call was definitely not good news, but Shen Fei still answered the call and put it on speakerphone.
"President Shen, I heard you're buying up large quantities of used mobile phones." Li Xiangdong's voice carried a hint of mockery and the smirk of someone in a superior position.
"I bought a lot of old mobile phones from Bird's trade-in program and I'm worried about where to dispose of them."
Mr. Shen, would you like me to give you a discount? I really have to thank you for this. Without you, how could we have come up with such a great promotion?
Bird mobile phones have increased their market share by a full 1.5%!
Anyway, we don't know what to do with it, so we'll just sell it to you at a low price.
The factory fell silent, and everyone looked at Shen Fei. This guy was too arrogant; he had to be beaten up.
Even Wang Shangzhong had prepared sacks and sticks.
But Shen Fei wasn't as angry as he had imagined. After all, although the other party's attitude was bad, they had indeed come to give him money, and a lot of money at that.
"If Mr. Li wants to sell, of course I'll buy. What price? Since Bird has made so much money, Mr. Li shouldn't be too worried about a few cents, right?"
"Hey, you're on the right track. How about a 25% increase over the market price? Pretty generous, right? Consider the rest a tip."
"It is possible."
This kind of large-scale processing will cost a lot of money. These phones are for Mr. Li to handle himself.
"Nothing much, I have to go now, after all, we're a small company." Shen Fei retorted just as bluntly.
"Hey, Mr. Shen, don't refuse so quickly, it was just a joke. How about this, 15 yuan per phone, that's basically the price for trading in your old phone for a new one."
"We don't make much profit from this price after deducting shipping costs."
"make a deal."
Shen Fei readily agreed. As for the barbs in his words, well, he can say whatever he wants!
"But I need to inspect the goods. The casing can be broken, but the motherboard cannot be missing any parts. Can this standard be met?"
Otherwise, we can refuse to accept it.
"No problem." Li Xiangdong smiled even more happily. At this moment, he felt that doing it this way didn't seem to require the use of telepathy. Such a compliant underling was hard to find.
Most importantly, it can save them a lot of money on disposing of old mobile phones!
The thought only flashed through his mind; he was here today to mock them, to make them realize their place, not to recruit followers...
"I guarantee there won't be any problems. Even though we're enemies, I still have that much credibility." Li Xiangdong smiled even more broadly.
"But Mr. Shen is ordering over a million units. Can you handle that? Should we do it in batches?"
"No need, I'll deliver it all at once. How much is this?" Shen Fei said. "You should know the Bao'an xxx warehouse. Cash on delivery. If you still have any, you can send it over directly. We can handle any size. As long as the price is right."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Xiangzhong gave a slight reminder: "President Shen, more than 100 million old mobile phones are indeed possible at this price, but it will still cost more than 1000 million."
However, the money in the account...
"Money is not a problem," Shen Fei waved his hand. "US stocks have started to rise recently, and I cashed out some money on Tianya, so the funds will be available soon."
In front of these absolutely loyal people, Shen Fei made no attempt to hide the relationship between the two.
"The key point is that the chips cut from these 100 million+ mobile phones are enough for us to manufacture 100 million+ brand new mobile phones. The chip models are a bit outdated, but as long as the functions are similar, they can be assembled together."
These things can reduce costs by at least 60-80%.
"But that boss is obviously here to disgust us." Wang Shangzhong muttered again in a low voice. Anyone who dared to talk to him like that before... would have been beaten to death.
"I know." Shen Fei walked to the exit of the assembly line and printed out a brand new motherboard. "But what he didn't know was that what he delivered wasn't garbage, but gold."
"The performance of the repaired chip has improved significantly, and the power consumption has also decreased. This means that the battery life of our next batch of T1 chips can be extended by another 10%, and the system can be smoother."
"Won't Bird release a competing product then? Priced lower than ours... But who said I'm a magnanimous person?" Shen Fei's eyes gradually turned cold, and he revealed that smug smile.
"When their product goes on sale, we release the T1 Enhanced Edition, with longer battery life, better performance, and upgraded camera, all for the same price of $99."
As for the original T1, it has been reduced by $5.
"Isn't Li Xiangdong always stirring up trouble and playing price wars?" Chen Fei put the motherboard back on the production line. "This time, I'll show him what a dimensional reduction attack is—a dimensional reduction attack from alien technology."
Everyone in the factory understood that this was not a passive response, but a well-designed trap.
Li Xiangdong thought he was causing trouble for Transsion, but in reality he was supplying ammunition to his competitors, and they were the ones being attacked.
…………
Upon returning to the company, Shen Fei immediately notified the marketing department that the price for recycling used mobile phones would increase by 5% after Bird took action, but there were certain requirements regarding the volume.
"Isn't Li Xiangdong all about having more money? This time, I'll play along with him to the end and see who really loses out."
Meanwhile, in the mobile phone lab, Chen Hai also obtained a batch of enhanced MTK6225 chips...
