Chapter 737 Before the Crushing Blow, a Full-Scale Showdown!
"The problem is that the XOS system on the Borderless Note 3 has a 60% 64-bit advantage!"

"With a 60% boost, the Kunpeng 902 is quite powerful, although it's still not as good as the Orion 7420."

"How come its frame rate is even higher than our S6?" Lee Kun-hee was dumbfounded.

"It's because of the screen!" Choi Jae-ji sighed. "Our S6 has a 2K screen, while the Borderless Note 3 has a 1080P screen. The 2K screen has a heavier load, consumes more power, generates more heat, and is more demanding on performance!"

“如果同为2K屏，或者同为1080P屏，无界note 3的鲲鹏902根本不是我们三星S6猎户座7420的对手！”

"But they used 1080P, we used 2K, and they overtook us!"

"So that's how it is, it was a screen problem!" Lee Kun-hee understood.

It's like a weighted race. If both are carrying 1080 pounds or 2000 pounds, then the Kunpeng 902 is definitely no match for the Orion 7420.

But the Kunpeng 902 carries a weight of 1080 kg, and the Orion carries a weight of 2 kg, which is completely different!

Cui Zaizhi was furious: "Wang Yi is really despicable. He's using a 1080P screen to beat our 2K screen's frame rate. He's shameless!"

Lee Kun-hee snorted coldly: "Our Samsung S6, which costs five or six thousand, was beaten like this by someone else's Borderless Note 3, which costs one or two thousand. You still have the nerve to make excuses?"

“I…” Cui was speechless for a moment.

Yes, the Note 3, priced at one or two thousand, has such capabilities, while the Samsung S6, priced at five or six thousand, has already lost, lost completely.

Talking about screens is superfluous.

Wang Yi continued, "Most importantly, the performance and configuration of the Boundless Note 3 have all doubled, but the price remains attractive!"

"The Borderless Note 3, 16GB version, is still priced at 1799!"

"Borderless Note 3, 32GB version, 2099!"

"Borderless Note 3, 64GB version, 2499!"

But Cook felt like the sky had fallen:
"Our iPhone 6S, which costs five or six thousand yuan, will soon have 20W fast charging, and the 1799 yuan Note 3 also has it! Won't our iPhone 6S be embarrassed?"

"Wang Yi is deliberately trying to annoy us, isn't he!"

"The worst part is that the Borderless Note 3 not only uses the same 20W fast charging as our iPhone 6S, but it was also released earlier than us, and its performance is even more powerful. It's even more difficult for our iPhone 6S!"

The other senior executives also felt a chill.

But the users were excited!
So excited!

With these specs and this price, it's an absolute gem among machines around 2,000 yuan, bar none!

"The excitement continues!" Wang Yi said with a smile, "Boundless S3 is just as full of surprises."

“无界 S3处理器全面升级！全系标配鲲鹏910 SOC！内存升级为3G内存，快充升级为星逸快冲3.0，30瓦极速快冲！”

A scream erupted from the crowd!
This configuration is amazing!

"Standard version, 5-inch screen, 3500mAh large battery, and upgraded camera to 1300MP + 1600MP!"

"Plus version, 5.5-inch screen, 4000mAh large battery, and upgraded camera to 1300MP + 2070MP!"

"The price remains attractive!"

"Standard version with 3G+16G, starting from 3999! Includes a two-year membership to Xingyi Music and Xingyi Video!"

"Plus version (3G+16G), starting at 4999! Includes a two-year membership to Xingyi Music and Xingyi Video!"

Another round of cheers erupted from the crowd:
"The configuration of the Boundless S3 is practically a carbon copy of the Xphone 4, only at a much lower price."

"The Xphone 4 is still on sale and the price is expected to drop to around 4799, while the Borderless S3 starts at 3999, making it a better value for money!"

"Furthermore, the S3 has 30W fast charging, while the Xphone 4 only has 20W!"

"The Boundless S3 is absolutely worth it; its price-performance ratio is unbeatable."

"If you like the Starry Sky brand, go for the Xphone 4; if you prefer value for money, go for the S3; if money isn't an issue, go for the Starry Sky X2! If you're on a tight budget, check out the S3 or Note 3. You can't go wrong with any of them!"

“星逸科技价格调整后很清晰，无界3千元最强神机！无界note 3两千元最强神机！无界S3四千元最强神机！xphone 4五千元最强神机！星逸x2 8000-10000超旗舰神机！”

"No matter your budget, Xingyi Technology has the best options; just buy it without hesitation!"

"That's true! Just order according to your budget. You can buy the Xingyi phone or the Wujie phone without even looking at them, they're guaranteed to be a safe bet!"

Wang Yi continued, "In addition, the Xphone 4 series, the Boundless S2 series, and other mobile phones are all subject to direct price reductions during the 618 promotion. The prices are attractive, so please feel free to purchase!"

This wave of new phone releases and big-scale price reductions on older models to clear inventory not only marks the end of the first half of the year's hot sales, but also the beginning of a brilliant second half!
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xingyi Technology's new product launches during this 618 shopping festival were somewhat overly aggressive, too fast, and too concentrated!
For example, the Wujie 3rd generation, thanks to the power of the XOS system, could still sell well even with the Kunpeng 508, and its performance was also excellent, but Wang Yi still directly arranged for the Kunpeng 706!

There's also the Wujie S3, which is powerful enough when upgraded to Kunpeng 906, but Wang Yi upgraded it directly to Kunpeng 910!

The main focus is on dominating the battlefield!

A phone priced at 1000 yuan will be discounted by 2000 yuan; a phone priced at 2000 yuan will be discounted by 4000 yuan; a phone priced at 4000 yuan will be discounted by 6000 yuan!

Whether it's Apple, Samsung, or ZTE, Huawei, Coolpad, and Lenovo, they'll all be attacked indiscriminately!
The reason is that Wang Yi wants to boost sales and establish a brand!

Before the hammer blows arrive, let's unleash our full power!

Besides making Xingyi phones number one globally, we also aim to make Wujie phones among the top five globally!

Before the hammer blows, seize as much market share and acquire as many users as possible!
With superior performance, high cost-effectiveness, and excellent user experience, we can attract users and cultivate them into loyal customers!
In this way, even if Omega launches a major crackdown and a complete ban, Xingyi Technology still has a base of hundreds of millions of users who firmly support Xingyi Technology and choose its products.

Huawei, for example, was already firmly in second place globally before the crackdown, and even took the top spot globally for a quarter.

Furthermore, the Kirin 980, which is equipped in the Mate 20 series, is the world's first 7-nanometer chip, boasting world-leading performance!

It is this series of remarkable achievements that have made the world aware of Huawei's strength, the strength of Kirin, and the strength of HiSilicon, and has gained many loyal fans.

Even after facing significant suppression, they firmly support and trust Huawei.

It's easy to imagine that without these remarkable achievements, there wouldn't be so many loyal fans and users.

Similarly, Xingyi Technology is also like this.

Since releasing the 14nm Kunpeng 920 SOC processor and achieving self-developed and self-produced products, Xingyi Technology can no longer keep a low profile and has entered the countdown to being crushed by Omega!
Even now, many companies are lobbying lawmakers to investigate Starway Technology!

If these proposals are taken seriously, investigations may be expedited, setups may be expedited, and the crackdown may be expedited!
It won't wait until 2019 or 2020; it might even start in 2017 or 2016!
There's nothing we can do about it.

Xingyi Technology has developed too fast and too brilliantly!

It's normal for a player to get a beating two or three years early!

Therefore, Wang Yi could no longer keep a low profile, so he simply started fighting and wreaked havoc on all sides!

Before delivering a crushing blow, Xingyi Mobile flexes its muscles and takes the world's number one spot!

Boundless phones are aiming for the top five globally!

Only in this way can global users remember Xingyi mobile phones and Wujie mobile phones, and recognize Xingyi Technology and Wujie Technology!

Only then can we have enough loyal users and fans who will steadfastly support Xingyi phones and Wujie phones, even if they are subsequently attacked and banned from sale!

Even if it's a grey market product, I'll still support it!

Until the light boat has sailed past ten thousand mountains, Xingyi Technology has made a triumphant return!
Therefore, Wang Yi stopped pretending!

Showing off its strength to the fullest.

The Wujie 3rd generation goes straight to the Kunpeng 706, outperforming the iPhone 6S!

If Apple also widely adopts 64-bit applications and provides the 64-bit advantage, the Kunpeng 706 will definitely be no match for the A9; it will be far inferior.

However, there are very few 64-bit applications on Apple right now, and most of them cannot enjoy the 64-bit bonus. With the Kunpeng 706 having a 60% bonus, it still has a chance to compete with the A9!

If the third generation of the budget phone can compete with the iPhone 6S, even if it loses, it will still be a glorious defeat and a disgrace to the iPhone 6S!

All of these could severely damage Apple's brand image and sales!
They can all win the support of users!
Moreover, the Boundless Note 3 and Boundless S3 can both outperform the iPhone 6s!

It can attract a large number of potential iPhone 6S users!
that's enough!
Why did the iPhone sell so well in its previous life?

Why is it that after 2020, iPhones have consistently underperformed and are inferior to Android flagships in many aspects, yet many people still buy iPhones and don't even consider the cheaper Android flagships?
Before 2020, Apple did such a good job that it gained a large number of users and fans!

Many students, in particular, cannot afford an iPhone while still in school, but they still like and admire iPhones and are determined to buy one when they have the money in the future!

This power of faith, which one has possessed since childhood, is extremely strong and deeply rooted.

Later, when they start working and earning money, the first thing they do is buy an iPhone to fulfill their dream, and when they upgrade their phones later, it will most likely still be an iPhone!

Even if the iPhone is not as good as Android, I will still firmly choose the iPhone.

The faith one has in their youth is often as invincible as a white moonlight.

Wang Yi made the Wujie 3rd Generation and Wujie Note 3, two budget phones, so powerful that they could rival or even slightly surpass the iPhone, all in order to capture young users, especially those born in the 1990s and 2000s.

Most of today's post-90s and post-00s generations are young people who have just started working, or college students and high school students.

They've just started working and have limited income, or they're still in school and have no income, so their spending power is low, but that doesn't matter. They are the seeds of the future. In a few years, these former students will be working and have income.

Young people who had just started working were promoted and received raises, becoming middle and senior managers with substantial incomes!

During the period when they were short of money, Wujie Mobile provided them with the best choice and the best experience. As their income increased, they also turned to buying Wujie Technology's high-end products, Xingyi Technology's flagship products, and super flagship products!
This is the core!

This is also the foundation for Xingyi Technology's victory in the technology war.

Wang Yi's strategy for the Boundless Phone is not only to expand the market share of the XOS system, but also to win over young people and to win the future!

There was no other way; the impending blitz was imminent, and it would likely come sooner than expected, so Wang Yi had to prepare in advance and have multiple contingency plans.

As for saying it's three years in advance, and that we'll be completely crushed next year...

Wang Yi felt that this was unlikely.

There's no other reason than that the other party is currently very ambitious and greedy.

Next year, they're not just going to crush one company!

It's not a war, but a massive, hard-fought one!
But time is truly running out for Wang Yi.

Now is the time for Wang Yi to take advantage of the fact that the other party is planning a major move next year and has no time to crush Xingyi Technology, so he can go all out, develop rapidly, and accumulate strength!

The press conference continued: "That concludes the mobile phone section."

"Next up, the graphics card, the flagship graphics card of the year, the RTX 980 Ti!"

Another round of applause erupted from the audience.

Old Huang couldn't help but clench his fist!
"Unlike the XM210 intelligent graphics architecture of the Starry RTX 980, the RTX 980 Ti is upgraded to the XM220 intelligent graphics architecture developed by Starry Semiconductor, and is fully upgraded to Starry Semiconductor's 14-nanometer process!"

A round of applause immediately erupted from the audience.

"The RTX 980 Ti has more than 3000 cores, up to 3086."

"Base frequency 1300MHz!"

"The video memory has been upgraded to 6GB GDDR5, and the memory bus width has been upgraded to 384-bit!"

"Memory bandwidth 336G/s!"

"The cooling system features a top-of-the-line configuration with three fans and six heat pipes, and supports 8+8 pin power connectors!"

"It can be said that the RTX 980 Ti's configuration far surpasses that of its competitors' GTX 980 Ti, and its performance is also stronger."

"However, the TDP of the RTX 980 Ti is only 220W, which is much lower than that of the dual-fan GTX 980 Ti from other manufacturers."

"This is the greatness of the 14-nanometer process!"

"More powerful performance, lower power consumption."

The applause was thunderous, but Lao Huang's face turned completely green.

What are you afraid of?
The moment Wang Yi officially announced that the RTX 980 Ti would be made using a 14nm process, Nvidia knew that the GTX 980 Ti was doomed!

If it's a 20nm process, the 28nm GTX 980 ti can still compete.

However, with a 14nm process, the GTX 980 Ti is simply no match.

Unless Starry Semiconductor uses a cannon to kill a mosquito and makes the configuration very low.

But obviously, that's impossible.

The RTX 980 Ti surpasses the GTX 980 Ti in every aspect, including performance and manufacturing process. So how can it lose?

Unless the RTX 980 Ti flops!

Unfortunately, the RTX 980 Ti's configuration is only slightly improved compared to the GTX 980 Ti, not too aggressive, and even a bit conservative!

With the added benefit of 14-nanometer technology, the possibility of failure is not entirely nonexistent, but it is extremely low.

Subsequently, Wang Yi conducted actual tests, directly comparing it with the RTX 980, GTX 980, and GTX 980 Ti.

"As you can see, in tests of multiple games, the GTX 980 Ti, which costs over 5,000 yuan, is 30% more powerful than our RTX 980, which costs over 3,000 yuan, and 40% more powerful than the GTX 980, which is pretty good."

"But compared to our RTX 980 Ti, the GTX 980 Ti is a bit lacking."

"In tests of over a dozen mainstream games, our RTX 980 Ti is 20%-30% more powerful than the GTX 980 Ti!"

"It's safe to say they're far ahead!"

"Most importantly, our RTX 980 Ti is priced similarly to the GTX 980 Ti!"

"Only 5399!"

"It's only 200 more expensive than the GTX 980 ti, but it gives you 20%-30% more performance!"

"Tell me, is it worth it for two hundred yuan?"

"Great deal!"

Everyone said in unison:
"Don't even mention the extra 200 yuan for 20%-30% power; even if it were 1000 yuan more expensive, it would still be well worth it!"

"Normally speaking, a 20%-30% performance improvement is worth the extra 1500-2000!"

"That's right, if you can afford a graphics card that costs over 5,000 yuan, you're not short of money, you're short of performance!"

"As long as the performance is good, it doesn't matter if the price is a bit high."

"The GTX 980 Ti is 5199, and the RTX 980 Ti is 5399. Only a 200 yuan difference, but a 30% performance difference! Who would buy the GTX 980 Ti? They'd definitely go for the RTX 980 Ti!"

"These two hundred dollars, let me tell you, just the electricity cost for the remaining 14-nanometer process alone is about 200 dollars a year."

"Haha, that's true. What makes that piece of trash Lao Huang compare to Xingyi graphics cards?"

"Luckily, I didn't impulsively order the GTX 980 Ti. Now that the RTX 980 Ti is here, it's definitely a better deal."

Wang Yi continued, "The RTX 980 Ti will be available globally immediately upon release. However, initial production capacity will be limited, so act fast if you wish to purchase one. Of course, those who cannot buy one need not worry, as ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, Galax, and other brands will also release non-reference RTX 980 Ti cards. Feel free to purchase them!"

If only Starry Sky Technology sells the RTX 980 Ti, then they will definitely need to stock up on more stock, at least 50 units in the first month.

However, the timeframe is too tight, and Xingyi graphics cards have limited production capacity, so they simply cannot produce that many. Therefore, they cannot be sold during the 618 shopping festival. It would be safer to launch them in July.

However, with partners like ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, and Galax launching retail non-reference RTX 980 Ti cards, that's no longer a problem.

Starry Semiconductor only needs to mass-produce 500,000 RTX 980 ti GPU chips, and then produce 100,000 reference RTX 980 ti chips. The remaining 400,000 chips can be handed over to partners such as ASUS, MSI, and Gigabyte.

This means that 500,000 RTX 980 Ti graphics cards can be quickly launched in June, enough to meet current market demand.

Once production capacity recovers, we can produce some more, and by the end of the year, which is about six months, we should have shipped around 200 million RTX 980 Ti units.

Next year will be the end of the product cycle. We'll sell another 100-150 million copies a year, and that will be the end of it.

A flagship graphics card costing over 5,000 yuan won't have many total sales.

But everyone at the scene and netizens were shocked:

"ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, Galax! Wow, those names look so familiar!"

"Aren't these Nvidia's strategic partners? How come they've all become strategic partners of Starlight graphics cards? And they're all starting to promote non-reference retail versions of Starlight graphics cards?"

"Yeah, what's going on? Is Nvidia going bankrupt? Are its partners all going to betray it?"

"I know this isn't about Nvidia's partners betraying us; it's about Nvidia going too far!"

"That's right. Nvidia's GTX 970 memory scandal ruined strategic partners and users, but it refused to take responsibility, causing heavy losses to ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, and others. So they turned to Starlight Graphics Cards."

"I see, that's a good thing. Nvidia is trash, from now on I'll only buy Starlight graphics cards."

"Yes, the non-reference Starry Sky graphics cards will also be launched at the same time. With the added production capacity of Starry Sky Semiconductor, won't graphics cards be readily available from now on, and there won't be any need to rush to buy them?"

"That's for sure. Only Nvidia, that little piece of trash, would use such scarcity marketing, making everyone scramble for the first release. Now, well, let them scramble for it themselves. We'll all buy the RTX 980 Ti; after all, the price is similar, but the RTX 980 Ti's performance is significantly better!"

"Xingyi graphics cards are powerful, stable, and reliable. From now on, I will only buy Xingyi graphics cards. Let Nvidia play by itself!"

Seeing the comments translated by Xingyi AI, Lao Huang's face turned ashen; he felt that Nvidia was in danger.

"Are consumers so averse to Nvidia now?"

The vice president nodded: "It was fine at first, but ever since the GTX 970 memory issue, users haven't been very optimistic about Nvidia. And now, with the GTX 960's 128-bit memory bus failing again, users are even less optimistic!"

"Furthermore, Xingyi graphics cards offer high configurations, strong performance, and similar or even lower prices, leading many loyal Nvidia users and fans to switch sides!"

"This..." Old Huang's lips twitched: "And partners like ASUS, Gigabyte, and MSI have also completely betrayed us and become strategic partners of Xingyi graphics cards?"
