Chapter 567 caused a global sensation, Xingyi Semiconductor dominated the world!

Jacob's face turned pale and he was extremely frightened.

If this continues, there will really be zero transactions at today's Qualcomm 4G chip exhibition!

Wouldn't that be the end?

Jacob found this hard to accept.

But looking at the situation, there is absolutely no sign of a zero transaction!
How could this be?
Jacob was puzzled and asked several brands in succession, but they all said they would consider it...

This scene made the hearts of Qualcomm's senior executives sink to the bottom.

All major media outlets were also collectively shocked!
This time, Qualcomm 4G chip exhibition actually had zero transactions!

They all carried cameras and took pictures of the scene frantically, especially Qualcomm Chairman Jacob, who was the special focus of attention.

I wanted to capture every change in Jacob's facial expression!
These are all materials!

Hot-selling material!

Finally, Qualcomm realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly arranged for staff to ask the media to leave.

But for the media, this kind of explosive news means traffic and the future, so how could they give it up?
Resolutely refuse to evacuate.

The scene was very unpleasant for a while, and there was even pushing and shoving...

Jacob stood on the stage, watching the scene with frustration and feeling a little overwhelmed.

He thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out the problem.

Why did the Qualcomm chip exhibition, which should have been a hot seller, end up being a failure?

This is unscientific.

Why did the major mobile phone manufacturers, who should have been placing orders frantically, end up sitting still?

Even if he forced and begged the other party to place an order, no one was willing?

It would be fine if Chinese customers such as ZTE, Lenovo, HTC, and TCL did not place orders, but many of these brands turned against us last year and started using Kunpeng 702.

How come Samsung, LG, Nokia, and BlackBerry, which have always used Qualcomm chips and are all loyal customers, are turning against Qualcomm?
This is not normal!

Could it be that it’s all because of Xingyi Technology?

For a moment, Jacob thought a lot, but he couldn't verify it.

More importantly, he was not allowed to verify the facts on the spot.

What is important is how to induce major mobile phone manufacturers to place orders for Qualcomm chips and break the embarrassment of zero transactions.

But mobile phone manufacturers and users have the same style and will follow the trend.

Seeing that ZTE, O, V, Lenovo, TCL, HTC, LG, Sony, and BlackBerry had no intention of placing an order, brands such as Samsung, Motorola, and Nokia that had originally planned to place an order also gave up on placing an order and chose to wait and see.

No matter how Jacob persuaded them, they remained unmoved.

After a while of stalemate, seeing that no one placed an order, the Qualcomm 4G chip exhibition had to end early and ended hastily.

Jacob left the scene with a gloomy face.

The CEOs of major mobile phone manufacturers also left one after another.

Each and every one of them is filled with emotion.

Even many CEOs of mobile phone manufacturers are thinking that perhaps an era has ended and a new era has begun.

That’s right, Qualcomm’s era is over!
The era of Xingyi Semiconductor has begun!
At least that's the case at this year's chip trade fair, and Qualcomm has no hope of making a comeback in the short term.

As for next year's chip trade show, Qualcomm will have even less chance of recovery.

32-bit chips are no match for 64-bit chips in any case.

Especially next year, Android will all be 64-bit, and Android phones will gradually take advantage of the 64-bit technology, which will be even more devastating for Qualcomm.

Return to the conference room.

Jacob was so angry that he started to curse:
"Fake!"

"Fake!"

"How could this be?"

“Zero transactions!”

“There has never been a zero transaction!”

"When has Qualcomm ever been so miserable?"

"It's too awful!"

"You know what? I was standing on the stage, facing a group of indifferent customers, with zero sales. I wanted to find a hole to crawl into!"

"It's so embarrassing!"

"Yesterday we were promoting our chip fair and expecting crazy hot sales, but today we had zero sales!"

"Our Qualcomm's reputation, my Jacob's reputation, is gone!"

"It's so embarrassing!"

"Can anyone tell me how this could happen?"

"Why is this happening!"

Faced with Jacob's hysterical roar, all the senior executives lowered their heads and remained silent.

Jacob was in a quandary, and so were they.

It's so confusing.

No one could have imagined such a result.

"Even Samsung Semiconductor has never been so miserable, and there has never been zero transactions. Previously, Samsung's chips were used by Samsung and Meizu. Later, Meizu stopped using them, but Samsung still used them, and there was no zero transaction either!"

Jacob was so angry that he threw all the notebooks on the table to the ground: "Why did we have zero transactions at the Qualcomm trade show?"

"Could it be that Qualcomm is not as good as Samsung Semiconductor, which is a mediocre company?"

"Is it worse than Samsung, whose baseband can't even support global frequency bands?"

"Can anyone tell me how this could happen?"

Everyone continued to be silent.

No one could figure out why.

"Speak up, say whatever you think. Anyway, the orders, face, and dignity have already been lost. There is nothing to lose."

After venting his anger, Jacob gradually calmed down.

It was just that his deep eyes were filled with a terrifying rage.

After a long while, Qualcomm Vice President Franz Quentin was the first to break the silence:

"Chairman, could it be because of Xingyi Semiconductor?"

"Xingyi Semiconductor!"

Everyone raised their heads and looked at Jacob.

Jacob's mind was filled with doubts, and his expression changed drastically:

"Xingyi Semiconductor held a chip exhibition two days earlier than us, but did not announce the results of the exhibition orders. We thought their transaction volume was very low and they could not show it off, so they did not announce it. However, Qualcomm's chip orders were bound to explode, so we were full of confidence."

"The result was the exact opposite."

"We had zero sales at the Qualcomm chip trade show, which means everything is wrong!"

"They all purchased chips from Xingyi Semiconductor!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but if they thought about it carefully, it was indeed true.

"That's very possible!" Vice President Franz Quentin said:

"In the next year, global mobile phone shipments will reach 12-14 billion units!"

"Such a large shipment volume would require at least 12-14 billion mobile phone processor chips."

"It is impossible for major mobile phone manufacturers not to place orders. The chips purchased previously are simply not enough!"

"I didn't place an order at the Qualcomm chip exhibition today, but it's impossible not to buy chips. There is only one explanation."

"They all purchased chip orders from Xingyi Semiconductor!"

"Yes, that's it."

The others suddenly realized and started to speak:
“And it’s not just ordinary purchases, it’s large-scale purchases!”

"A company that purchases tens of millions of chips."

“It’s not a large-scale purchase of one brand, but a large-scale purchase of multiple brands, or even more than a dozen brands.”

"That's right, if it weren't for this, we wouldn't have zero transactions!"

"So, Xingyi Semiconductor's chip sales volume has reached hundreds of millions?"

"No way?"

"Why not? I don't want to admit it, but it's very likely, otherwise we wouldn't have closed the deal!"

"The problem is that it's the 4G era, and Xingyi Technology only has one 4G chip. How come the sales volume is in the hundreds of millions? This is unscientific. Could it be that they have more than one 4G chip?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically.

Jacob was even more dumbfounded: "If that's the case, then everything makes sense."

But then someone refuted: "Isn't this impossible? I haven't heard that Xingyi Technology has other 4G chips."

“That is, when did they develop it?”

"There are so many things we don't know!" Franz Quentin sighed:

"Xingyi Technology plays a different game from us. We held a press conference in the fourth quarter of last year to release new chips, started mass production in the middle of this year, and shipped them on a large scale in the second half of the year."

"Xingyi Technology does not release chips in advance, but directly goes into mass production. It only releases chips after all mobile phones are on the market in the second half of the year!"

"It was the same with Kunpeng 702 last year and it is the same with Kunpeng 902 now. Neither of them was released in advance."

"It's entirely possible that they have other chips hidden and will release them directly to the market!"

"Yes, that's very likely. Xingyi Technology loves to catch people off guard!"

Jacob sighed, his expression was extremely complicated: "The embarrassing thing now is that Xingyi Technology knows everything about our chips, but we know nothing about Xingyi Technology's chips."

"Don't worry, Chairman, I have arranged people to investigate." said another vice president.

At this time, a senior executive rushed in: "Chairman, something terrible has happened."

"What's wrong?" Jacob's face changed drastically, and he had a guess in his mind: "Could it be those media..."

"Yes, those media outlets broke the news that we had zero sales at the Qualcomm chip trade show!"

"Farke! Farke!"

Jacob was furious: "Are you all idiots? Where is the PR department? No crisis PR, give them hush money and make them shut up? Where is the PR manager?"

"Fuck! Can such a scandal be exposed?"

"A bunch of idiots!"

The PR manager trembled: "Chairman, our PR department took action immediately and achieved remarkable results. Many media outlets accepted the money and said they would not report on it. But too many media outlets were invited this time."

"And some of the reporters from the media are young and inexperienced, and they don't ask for hush money at all."

"Especially when we drove these media away before, some media were very disgusted, and there was a little physical conflict...they didn't want to cover up for us even more." "So this matter was still reported by some media..."

"Fake!"

"Fake!"

"Fake!"

Jacob cursed loudly and felt terrible.

I quickly opened my phone and saw news about Qualcomm's trade show everywhere, and it was even on the hot search list.

It just sounds a bit harsh!

[The Times: Unbelievable! Qualcomm 4G chip exhibition, zero transactions! ]

[Los Angeles Post: The trade show was fruitless, Qualcomm chips were collectively abandoned by major mobile phone manufacturers! ]

[Voice of the United States: Qualcomm's trade show had zero sales, and it is suspected that major mobile phone manufacturers collectively chose Xingyi Semiconductor. ]

[Jingbao: Qualcomm, which opened champagne halfway through the exhibition, did not sell a single chip at the trade show, becoming a global joke.]

[The Guardian: In order to cover up the scandal of zero transactions at the trade show, Qualcomm bribed the media and beat up reporters! ]

[Guangming Daily: The era of Qualcomm ends, and the era of Xingyi Semiconductor officially begins! ]

……

Jacob's face turned green after reading the news:

"Fake!"

"Fake!"

"This damn group of media reported everything, including the zero transaction issue. Do we at Qualcomm have any face left?"

“How does this make users view us?”

"And Guangming Daily, what does it mean that the era of Qualcomm has ended and the era of Xingyi Semiconductor has officially begun?"

"And the BBC actually said that Qualcomm chips are not as good as Kunpeng chips, and are not cheap. They are all outdated 32-bit processors and have been collectively abandoned by major manufacturers! Qualcomm's brand has been ruined!"

"This damn media, like the damn PR department, should all be sent to see God! Kneel before the cross and repent!"

"Once this news comes out, won't Qualcomm's stock price collapse?"

Franz Quentin sighed: "It has plummeted. The market value has dropped from more than 100 billion to more than billion. More than billion US dollars have evaporated!"

"Fake!"

"Fake!"

"More than 10 billion US dollars!" Jacob just felt pain in his flesh.

Franz Quentin continued: "And it's still falling. It's very likely to fall below 800 billion!"

"Fuck!" Jacob was furious. "Quick, come up with a solution, crisis public relations! We can't let 200 billion evaporate at once!"

200 billion US dollars evaporated in one go, even Qualcomm can't withstand such a bloodbath.

But the senior executives remained silent.

In this situation, what good public relations methods are there?
The grand trade fair ended with zero transactions!

This is the biggest scandal of the century, and even God is helpless.

Franz Quentin said in a deep voice: "Chairman, the most fundamental thing is that our chip sales are zero. As long as the chip sales don't increase, public relations will be meaningless."

Jacob nodded and calmed down: "You are right. Let's first investigate the situation of the Xingyi Semiconductor Fair. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle."

"Find out what they did to get so many orders at once, so we can respond accordingly!"

"Yes! I'll urge it right away." Franz Quentin said, and quickly went to make arrangements.

…………

The early morning sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains, and Wang Yi opened his sleepy eyes.

Lin Shu, who always gets up early, is still sleeping soundly.

Lin Shu has been busy with his business lately and is very tired. He fought three rounds last night and ended up not being able to get up...

Wang Yi slowly stood up, stretched, turned on his mobile phone, and his expression immediately became extremely excited.

There were zero transactions at the Qualcomm trade show!

This is so unexpected!
The online public opinion was full of criticism.

At this time, George called.

Wang Yi covered Lin Shu with a blanket, went to the next room, pressed the answer button, and heard George's excited voice from the other side:
"Chairman, I am dying of laughter. There was zero transaction at the Qualcomm trade show. Not a single chip was sold! Hahahaha!"

It can be heard that George is genuinely happy, and all his previous frustration has disappeared.

"That's great. I didn't expect Qualcomm to be so lame!" Wang Yi said with a smile.

"Yes, I checked it out. Their chips have been reduced in price a bit, but they are still not as good as ours. Their performance, architecture, and price are not as good. It can be said that they are nothing and are useless. They were collectively abandoned by all major brands, and ultimately no sales were made!"

"Very good, keep working hard, maintain our advantage, and strive to kill Qualcomm as soon as possible!" Wang Yi said firmly.

This is his goal.

Before the technology war, destroy Qualcomm and cut off Xiaomi's arm!
Why are the Kunpeng 902 flagship processor, fingerprint module, and 20W fast charging all sold to third parties? Even the motherboard chipset design is sold to third parties?
All the core components have been sold. Isn't this aiding the enemy?

Wouldn't it allow brands like Meimi, O/V to rise and become strong rivals of Xingyi phones?

There is no other reason, just to kill Qualcomm first!
Compared with the threat from Qualcomm, Meizu, Xiaomi, O, V, ZTE, etc. are all assembly brands and are not a concern.

If Xiaomi doesn't kill Qualcomm, once a technology war breaks out, Xiaomi will be able to immediately kill the Xingyi mobile phone and Kunpeng chip, and use the iPhone and Qualcomm chips to grab the market share of the Xingyi mobile phone and Kunpeng chip.

By then, the sales volume of Xingyi mobile phones will only be limited to that in China.

But if Qualcomm can be killed, that would be easy.

If Mike Pompeo wants to make a move, he can't make a fuss about chips.

It’s simple. Xiaomi’s mobile phone chip giant is dead and can’t take over the market of Kunpeng chips.

It's like Xiaomi's attack on DJI, which is of little use. Even if they attack DJI, they are not a drone giant and cannot take over the market and share vacated by DJI.

Xiaomi may even suffer heavy losses due to DJI's withdrawal from the Xiaomi market.

Therefore, Wang Yi must first kill Qualcomm and cut off Xiaomi's arm before he can have more advantages in future technology wars.

As for allowing domestic manufacturers to rise and threaten Xingyi mobile phones...this is not a big problem.

Except for Huawei, most domestic manufacturers are mobile phone assembly brands and do not have much core technology.

Once Qualcomm dies, their chips, fingerprints, fast charging technology, etc. will have to use Xingyi Technology's.

Even the motherboard design was purchased directly from Xingyi Technology. How can they compete with Xingyi Technology?

In particular, many brands frequently purchase motherboard design solutions from Xingyi Technology. In a few years, they may even lose the ability to independently develop motherboards.

Even if they still have the ability to develop motherboards, their efficiency is extremely low and they have no competitiveness.

There are also chip tuning services, which all require Xingyi Technology to provide. Many brands don’t even have a chip tuning team.

Once Xingyi Technology stops supplying, these domestic brands will surely die one by one.

To put it bluntly, the chip tuning service and motherboard chipset design service launched by Wang Yi are a huge help to major friendly competitors, but they also directly destroy the self-research capabilities of major friendly competitors and cut off their prospects for high-end products!
Even if Xingyi Technology continues to supply, these domestic brands can only produce mid- and low-end products, not high-end products.

There is no doubt that an assembly brand without core technology can never become high-end!
The simplest example is that mobile phones from brands such as Meimi, OV, etc. are sold at the same price as Huawei and Apple, at 8000-10000 yuan. How many people would buy them?

There are simply not many people buying them, and these brands can only make mid- and low-end mobile phones.

As for mid- and low-end products, we can only focus on cost-effectiveness, do OEM for the supply chain, and help the supply chain make money.

In their previous lives, these brands worked for supply chain giants such as Qualcomm and Sony to help them make money. This time, they all work for Xingyi Technology to help Xingyi Technology make money!

Xingyi Technology didn't suffer much loss at all, it just gained a group of workers.

In the end, most of the profits in the mobile phone industry still flow to Xingyi Technology, just in a different way.

More importantly, the global annual sales volume of mobile phones is 12-15 billion units, which is too much for Xingyi Technology alone to handle.

If you can eat one-fifth to one-quarter of it, it will be enough.

For the remaining market share, it is better to let domestic brands take it rather than let European and American brands take it.

This is also true for the domestic market.

Low-end thousand-yuan phones are monopolized by Wujie Technology, while high-end flagship phones priced above 4000 yuan are monopolized by Xingyi Technology.

If Xingyi Technology doesn’t sell off a portion of the mid-range 2000-3000 models and takes over all of them, it would be really ugly.

More importantly, the annual shipment volume of domestic mobile phones is as high as 4-5 million units, and Xingyi Technology cannot handle so many.

In fact, it would be good if the domestic market can consume 2 million units.

The rest will be handed over to other manufacturers, who will use Xingyi Technology’s components and still pay money to Xingyi Technology.

You can make a lot of money, and you won’t be criticized. You can also get the reputation of supporting domestic manufacturers, and you can also take down these friendly competitors and kill Qualcomm!
This deal is definitely a good deal!
"Chairman, should we release the sales data?" George asked.

Wang Yi said with a smile: "We should be honest. Since we have agreed to share sales data with Qualcomm, we should publish it."

"Yes, be honest, I will announce it right away!" George was in a good mood.

I've been holding it in for several days and I can finally show off my muscles!
And Qualcomm is forcing it to flex its muscles!

Then it’s not Xingyi Technology’s fault.

Soon, Xingyi Semiconductor issued a statement:
【Keeping true to its word, at Qualcomm’s request, we announced the results of the Xingyi Semiconductor 3G and 4G chip exhibition. 】

[In this exhibition, in addition to 4 3G chips, we also launched 4 4G chips, covering flagship, sub-flagship, mid-range and low-end. All are 28nm process, 64-bit architecture 4G chips! ]

[The four chips have powerful performance, all of which are 64-bit architectures and can enjoy 64-bit bonuses, and are deeply loved by customers...]

【At this trade show, more than 4 million 2.2G chips and more than 3 million 1.6G chips were sold. 7000 million tablet and TV chips were sold.】

【Thanks to our customers and users for their support, Xingyi Semiconductor will continue to work hard to provide you with better quality and more powerful products! 】

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

This statement caused a global sensation:

"Holy crap, Xingyi Semiconductor sold 4.5 million chips at one time? That's horrible!"

“No wonder there were no sales at the Qualcomm chip exhibition. It turns out that everyone bought Kunpeng chips from Xingyi Technology.”

"Who said Xingyi Technology only has one 4G chip? You're wrong, right? They came up with four 4G chips at once, all of which are 4 nanometers."

"Without counting the 32-bit bonus, Kunpeng 706 is on par with Snapdragon 800. With counting the 64-bit bonus, it beats Snapdragon 805. No wonder no one buys Snapdragon 600 and 800!"

"There is also Kunpeng 508, which is comparable to Snapdragon 600. With the 64-bit bonus, it can do as well as Snapdragon 800. Only a fool would buy the more expensive Snapdragon 600."

"The weakest Kunpeng 505 is stronger than Snapdragon 400. It is not unfair that Qualcomm had zero sales at the trade show."

"All 12 chips of Xingyi Technology are 64-bit architecture. The 32-bit system can beat the same generation of Qualcomm products. When Android releases the 64-bit system, it will be able to beat Qualcomm across generations!"

"When you buy a mobile phone in the future, you have to buy one with a Kunpeng processor. Qualcomm processors are all 32-bit and are rubbish!"

"The era of Qualcomm has really come to an end. Xingyi Technology is the future. What do those big-breeders who praised Qualcomm have to say now?"

"Humph, I admit that Xingyi Technology is currently strong, but I still support Qualcomm. We will definitely be able to catch up."

"Okay, I hope the next mobile phones you buy will all have Qualcomm chips!"

"How can you be so vicious? You only buy a phone with a 32-bit chip!"
