Coquettish Rebirth

"Sister Wang, if you want to sell this chipset, what price will it be?" Jia Hongjian asked suddenly after thinking about it.

"Us? Intel's current i850 chipset is similar to ours, but theirs is a high-priced thing that supports that bastard manufacturer of rumbus, so Intel's chipset promotion is not very good, and their current market price is about $45 a chip set .Our VIA chipset is much cheaper, it only costs 35 US dollars, and it also supports sdram memory. If it is released now... 30 dollars...no, 25 dollars!" Wang Xuehong bit at this time He gritted his teeth and said.Listening to her, it seems that $30 is the ex-factory price? I guess $25 is really a bit of a loss? 25 US dollars, according to the exchange rate of 8, that is about 200 yuan?That doesn't sound like much!Wait, why did Jia Hongjian suddenly remember that motherboards are quite expensive these days?In his impression, historically, at the beginning of 2001, a motherboard equipped with such a first-generation Pentium 850 i3000 chipset cost about [-] yuan!Is there such a big price difference between the motherboard and the chipset?

"Sister Wang, how do I remember that the motherboard of the i850 costs more than 1000 yuan? What else is there to spend on this motherboard?" Jia Hongjian asked puzzled. "The main board is just like a car. You can do anything to increase the cost by piling up materials. All Japanese capacitors, plus a thicker pcb board, are the best for all kinds of things. Let alone 1000 yuan, you can get 2000 yuan. Not to mention, isn’t the motherboard integrated with a graphics chip these days? The price of this graphics chip is not cheap. It is added together in a mess, plus the money earned by various agents and dealers, plus various booths in the computer city This price must be expensive! The motherboard priced at 1000 RMB on the market is actually only 600 to 700 RMB from the ex-factory price, and the price increase will reach 1000 RMB!” Wang Xuehong so explained.

Hearing this, Jia Hongjian immediately felt that it was feasible!According to this statement, Jia Hongjian still owns shares in Nvidia, and it would be no problem to get some graphics card chips from Nvidia. If the quantity is larger, the price will be cheaper?At the same time, a batch of cpu and motherboard chipsets are obtained cheaply, and these are added together.Let's not do it according to the "Gaoquan" big board ATX standard that is popular on the market now.Let's get a simple notebook motherboard, save everything that can be saved, and reduce the price of the motherboard to 400 yuan or even 300 yuan. Is this possible?After all, you must know that the chipset sold by Wang Xuehong and the others is 20 dollars cheaper than Intel's price.This is 160!That is, a motherboard with an ex-factory price of 600-700.Jia Hongjian’s ex-factory price here is 400-500?Let's save a little more.It's totally okay to lower the cost to 300 to 400?

On the other hand, if Jia Hongjian remembers correctly, the current price of the first-generation Pentium 4 1.4GHz product should be around 1000 yuan.This is the price of an i5 in later generations!If our wholesale volume is larger, the price may be lowered. It would be good if the overall price is around 1200.With 10g or 30g, you can even choose a desktop hard drive instead of a notebook 2.5-inch hard drive, add two 64m memory, get together 128m memory, get a cvd drive or something, the overall price is 1000 It should be possible within?Adding a monitor to the machine case can definitely be done within 700 yuan, and even around 3000 yuan is estimated to be almost the same. In this way, the overall cost is definitely below 3300 yuan!Then let's try to flatten the sales, don't need so many agents, so we can sell it for a 3500 or [-], which is a good price?

跟采用了赛扬cpu的差不多配置的台式机价格差不多了？要知道贾鸿渐没记错的话，他02年帮着妹子陪过一台赛扬1.4显示器，那价格都3000出头呢！现在咱把一个笔记本上面做出来了p4的cpu了，还是液晶显示屏的，这么一套3500不算贵？对于很多老百姓来说花4000甚至5000买一套联乡的台式机还不如买这么一套笔记本呢？毕竟4000到5000的联乡电脑那现在都是用赛扬的cpu啊！赛扬跟奔腾着能比么？

That's right!At a time when others feel that rubbish is thrown into their hands, Jia Hongjian wants to be a trash guy, go find the rubbish and see if it can be used for him, and help him open up the market space for cheap notebooks!However, Jia Hongjian was not prepared to give Wang Xuehong an answer right now, "Sister Wang, let me think about this matter and try to find a way out for you." He just gave a promise so seriously .Originally, Wang Xuehong came to see Jia Hongjian as if he was in a hurry to go to the doctor. Seeing that Jia Hongjian was willing to help, of course she would be very grateful!

After sending Wang Xuehong away, Jia Hongjian immediately brought Ni Guangnan and Luo Feng over.Although Luo Feng and the others are now members of Huaxia Communications, Ni Runfeng is still a member of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences, and Luo Feng and the others have been working on this notebook project before, so they can't let it go now?And Wang Xuehua and other shareholders also turned a blind eye to this matter, so everyone just acquiesced to the status quo. "Everyone, come here, I heard something today..." After Ni Guangnan and Luo Feng surrounded him, Jia Hongjian reported what he heard from Wang Xuehong and the plan he had in mind. Speak out! "How is it? Do you think it's feasible?" Jia Hongjian asked after finishing speaking.

"It's...it's feasible..." Ni Guangnan replied after thinking about it, but he asked in a bit of a dilemma, "Mr. Jia, isn't he a little...unkind? This Pentium 4 chip is not as good as the Pentium 3's Tualatin..." Hearing this, Jia Hongjian brainwashed the old man, "Old man, there is nothing we can do about it, this is made by Intel, it's not like we're shoddy, right? Besides, it’s not like you don’t know that Chinese people don’t know much about computers now. We often give them Tualatin for Pentium 1600, but they don’t think it’s for Pentium 1000! Do you think there’s a way to do this? Give them [-] They think it’s bad for Tualatin of [-] yuan, and they feel that they have made a profit by giving them [-] yuan of Pentium... We are just adapting to the market. At least in the computer field, we haven’t made any promises yet, and we haven’t made our own promises yet. The ability to forcefully guide the public's narrow perception can only go with the flow..."

That's right!There may be such things in various markets, and this is not Jia Hongjian's nonsense!It's like the problem of mobile phone cameras in later generations. Various manufacturers are desperately comparing whose pixels are higher, but the problem is whether the higher the pixels, the better the imaging effect!After all, the lens of a mobile phone camera is only a little bit bigger, and it is impossible to make a lens as big as a digital camera, so sometimes the higher the pixel, the effect is not linear!Everyone in the industry knows this kind of thing, and every mobile phone manufacturer knows it, but how many companies can stand up and tell consumers that they are wrong?Everyone can only follow this trend like drifting with the tide!That is to say, a powerful manufacturer like Apple can stand up and say that the effect of an 800-megapixel camera after special technical matching is not worse than that of a 1300-megapixel camera, and may even be better!And now Huaxia Hi-Tech may have this kind of strength in other fields, but it really doesn't have such ability in the computer field. After all, the first batch of machines haven't been released yet!

"Okay, that's it. By the way, Mr. Jia, this is the blueprint of the notebook we designed..." After saying that, Mr. Ni Guangnan nodded, and asked Luo Feng to show Jia Hongjian the blueprint.To be honest, this lowest-end 14-inch notebook really has no design.The consequence of all kinds of simplicity is that there is no aesthetic feeling of craftsmanship at all, because it must cost more money to achieve aesthetic feeling of craftsmanship!If you spend more money, the cost will be higher, and the price will also be higher!So the overall design of this 14-inch notebook is similar to IBM's notebook, it is really square, and it looks like a plastic box when combined!

But because of this, the overall cost is low, and there is no additional cost without any additional complicated processes!And the overall model is not ultra-thin at all, even quite thick!For example, some notebooks of later generations have to be one centimeter or something, that is not the direction that Jia Hongjian and his notebooks are pursuing at all!Thinner means good-looking, but it also means that heat dissipation is troublesome, which means that more complex and efficient heat dissipation needs to be designed, which means higher cost!A notebook like Jia Hongjian's and the others is five centimeters thick when closed!This is much thicker than other notebooks in China now!But because of this, there is no cost for a lot of complicated craftsmanship, and you can even use a lot of desktop accessories!And desktop accessories are much cheaper than notebooks, because the output is large and the sales volume is large!

Then, the design of the mid-range and good-looking notebook did not satisfy Jia Hongjian so much.Although it is still a 7-inch screen design, it still follows the traditional design of a notebook as a whole, which is in no way comparable to what Jia Hongjian thought about the slider and the like!Moreover, the appearance is made of engineering plastics plus baking varnish. It is just made a lot thinner and has a lot more curves, but this does not make an absolute gap with other manufacturers!It seems that for this mid-end notebook, Jia Hongjian still needs to bring out his own design!
