Chapter 623 The Arrival of the Economic Cycle

Chapter 623 The Arrival of the Economic Cycle
"Is the business going well? With a beauty like you in charge of the company, I guess the business will not be bad."

Hu Yang and Zhong Yilin made a joke casually, but were met with a blank stare from the other party.

"My brother's business is already very good. I went to help out because I was bored. Speaking of which, I have to thank Mr. Hu for introducing Mr. Chang of Ark Computer to my brother. Mr. Chang has helped us a lot. busy."

Zhong Yilin didn't mention this matter before, now that it's here, she naturally wants to thank Hu Yang.

"Small things, small things. I met Mr. Chang today, and he said that your brother still sits in the sales department of Ark Computer every day. What's the matter, the supply is still not enough?"

Hu Yang took a few mouthfuls of food and put down his chopsticks.

He didn't know if Zhong Yilin's elder brother was insatiable, or why he sat on the Ark computer every day?It's not easy for him to ask Chang Sheng about this, but it doesn't matter if he asks Zhong Yilin.

"The company is still out of stock. Now the price of memory sticks is changing every day and rising every day. Our inventory can't be kept at all."

Hu Yang can understand what Zhong Yilin said.

Since the other party is a large wholesaler, they can't just not sell any goods.If you do that, you probably won't have any customers.

However, the front-end sales situation of Populus euphratica is not clear, and it seems that the price has not been transmitted to the manufacturer.

It is estimated that it will be very soon, at most three or two days, and the major manufacturers will adjust the ex-factory prices.

The two just chatted without saying a word, ate something and drank a glass of wine, and before they knew it, the bottle of Moutai had run out.

Hu Yang raised his hand to look at his watch, it was almost ten o'clock, he didn't expect to sit for so long.

"Miss Zhong, is it almost time for today? How about we retreat?"

Hu Yang is in good condition today, at most he is a little drunk.

Two red clouds flew up on Zhong Yilin's face, but her eyes were still clear.

"Okay, let's go then. Waiter, pay the bill."

After paying the bill, Hu Yang and Zhong Yilin walked out of the restaurant.

"Miss Zhong, are you here by car? If not, I'll see you off."

Zhong Yilin followed Hu Yang all the time, and when she arrived at the parking lot, she had no intention of leaving.

"I knew I was going to drink tonight, so I didn't drive. Mr. Hu, leave me alone, I can just take a taxi myself."

Seeing that Hu Yang had no follow-up arrangements, Zhong Yilin hurriedly said goodbye.

"Let's go, let's go, I just happened to be on the way, let's get in the car."

Hu Yang laughed, could not help but invite Zhong Yilin to his car.

The next day.

When Hu Yang came to the office early in the morning, he called Yan Hanzhang.

"Mr. Yan, the time is almost right now. We can increase the supply to the market. In addition, the price can also be increased appropriately. Everything is based on ensuring profitability."

Although there is some lag in the transmission of prices, it is just a matter of these two days.There is nothing wrong with Glamor Semiconductor taking the initiative to raise prices now, anyway, major manufacturers will follow up later.

This price increase involves all memory chips.

Of course, this does not include the latest product that Glamor Semiconductor has just launched, which is produced in the N+32 generation using 1-layer stacking technology.

The pricing of new products is generally high, and the price will be gradually reduced in the future mass production schedule.

The more high-end products, the greater the independent pricing power of enterprises.For example, international giants like S Star launch price wars at every turn, precisely because they have the high profits of high-end products as a guarantee.

Feng Shui turns, Charm Semiconductor finally has the world's leading high-end products.It is precisely because this technology is not available to others that everyone can make a lot of money.

"Mr. Hu, do you mean that we start throwing the memory chips reserved after expanding production capacity to the market?"

DRAM memory chips have always been the shortcoming of Glamor Semiconductor. Yan Hanzhang still seems to have some concerns about raising the price of memory chips immediately.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yan. Consumer terminals such as memory sticks have recently started to increase in price, and the price will soon be transmitted to the production end. That's it, you guys act quickly."

Hu Yang explained casually, and Yan Hanzhang understood where the problem was.

So after he put down the phone, he hurried to the headquarters of Glamor Semiconductor.

An hour later, Charming Semiconductor's price adjustment notice was sent to the major manufacturers.The memory chips that were hoarded in the hands before began to increase shipments.

There are also flash memory chips that have been adjusted simultaneously, and their price increases are similar to those of memory chips, both of which are 10%.

Ark Computer also received a price adjustment notice, Chang Sheng was not surprised, after all, he had already known this plan in advance from Hu Yang.

"Hehe, Charming Semiconductor's price increase today is just the beginning. In the future, a small increase in three days and a big increase in five days will become the norm."

Changsheng realizes that a new round of price cycle for memory chips has arrived, and this time it is obviously a cycle of rising prices.

"Notify Vice President Luo and ask him to take someone to sign a supply contract with Charm Semiconductor immediately, and try to get as much purchase as possible. Well, there is also that ghost price guarantee agreement, let's sign it too."

Chang Sheng asked the secretary to notify the relevant personnel. As for the supply volume, Charm Semiconductor has the final say.Now it is just the beginning of the price increase. Of course, the manufacturer's shipments will not fill the market demand all at once. There must be a process.

For Ark Computer, the price of memory sticks produced in the future will naturally increase accordingly.This is a typical price conduction, Charm Semiconductor just moved a few days first.

Soon, the news that Charm Semiconductor was the first to raise prices spread throughout the market.

S star and other giants knew about this, but they didn't take it to heart.Any successful large-scale enterprise must have its own business plan, and it will not change easily unless it encounters special circumstances.

Furthermore, the current price has only just recovered from the bottom, and people are not so stupid to increase shipments immediately.

According to the plan, whether it is S-star or MG, they will raise the price first, and then expand the production capacity.Only in this way can we ensure the maximization of profits and allow the enterprise to recover blood to the greatest extent.

Hu Yang's thinking is different from theirs. His purpose is to quickly seize the domestic memory chip market.As long as there is a little profit, Charm Semiconductor will increase its shipments.

Another advantage of this is that it will delay the price increase and disrupt the recovery rhythm of those giants.

Not to mention that Ark Computer is working overtime to produce memory sticks, and some well-known foreign memory stick manufacturers have also begun to seek the supply of Charm Semiconductor.

"Mr. Hu, do you think I should supply them? These multinational companies are unwilling to sign a price guarantee agreement with us. There is no way, they have enough confidence!"

At this time, Hu Yang was sitting in the car with Tian Sichun, taking the little guy back to the deep sea from Yangcheng.

Tian Sichun and the little guy stayed in Yangcheng for almost a month, and Hu Yang made a special trip this time, intending to take the two of them home.

"Mr. Yan, I'm going to the deep sea toll booth soon, why don't we go to my office to talk. Well, see you in an hour."

Some things were unclear on the phone, so Hu Yang quickly hung up the phone.

"Ayang, is there something wrong with the company? Why don't you go directly to the company, and Xiaoyi and I will change cars later."

Tian Sichun could understand Hu Yang's busyness. Besides, she was accompanied by a lot of assistants, nannies and security personnel, so she didn't need Hu Yang to send herself and her son home.

Hu Yang nodded, and after getting off the expressway, he found a place for Wang Cheng to stop, and arranged Tian Sichun and Xiao Yifei in another vehicle.

Afterwards, the two cars followed Tian Sichun's mother and son to Xianghu No. [-], and Hu Yang drove to the investment building.

"Mr. Yan, the price guarantee agreement must be signed, and no one is an exception. If the other party refuses to sign the agreement, you let them wait a little longer. I don't believe that they are watching the price rise to a higher level."

Seeing Yan Hanzhang, Hu Yang didn't hesitate, and directly expressed his tough attitude.

Although these multinational companies have done a lot of business in China, they used to cooperate with companies such as S Star and MG.

Now I am looking for Charming Semiconductor, not because the other party wants to change partners, but because the production of companies such as S Star is still under pressure.

To put it bluntly, when I came to Charming Semiconductor at this time, the other party was just holding the mentality of picking up a bargain.

In that case, why bother to be polite to them?

"Yeah, that's the same reason! Mr. Hu, what do you mean, these multinational companies are just a one-shot deal with us? If that's the case, let's just raise the price a bit more."

Yan Hanzhang quickly figured out the way to do this, and he couldn't help being full of malice towards these arrogant guys who wanted to take advantage of it.

"Haha, there's no need to do this, just treat everyone equally. Anyway, the current price is changing at any time. Didn't you adjust the price once this morning?"

After today's price adjustment, compared with the previous low price, it has increased by almost 15%.The shipments of Glamor Semiconductor also increased by 35% simultaneously.

There is really no need to treat them differently, it seems that their eating looks are ugly.

Hu Yang rejected Yan Hanzhang's proposal, and then said:
"Mr. Yan, once these multinational companies decide to purchase memory chips from Charm Semiconductor, their products must have a continuity.

Don't forget, there are still some differences between our products and S star's. When the other party produces, it will inevitably need to make some minor adjustments.

So, once the opponent starts, it will not be so easy to stop, at least not within half a year. "

Yan Hanzhang had neglected this question, but when Hu Yang said it, he immediately reacted.

"Hey, Mr. Hu is the one who sees it deeply. That's fine, I'll go back and give the other party an answer. As for whether the negotiation can be completed, I'm not sure."

The uncertain factor is whether international giants such as S Star will immediately expand their production capacity. As long as they are still limited in production, the business will be fine.

Hu Yang nodded with a smile and sent Yan Hanzhang away.

Hu Yang didn't mind Yan Hanzhang's worry. Enterprises such as S Star and MG have finally survived the last round of price decline cycle, and it is absolutely impossible to be satisfied with such a small profit.

In the afternoon, Yan Hanzhang came to Hu Yang's office excitedly.

"Mr. Hu, good news! Seeing my firm attitude, these multinational companies signed the price guarantee agreement without saying a word. Guess what? Their purchase volume is not small."

Yan Hanzhang is of course happy. With the price protection agreement, Charm Semiconductor has the right to set prices according to the market.

Today's memory prices vary from day to day. As a supplier of basic materials, Glamor Semiconductor has also shortened the time to adjust prices to one week.

For the buyer, it is not a big problem.Charm Semiconductor's supply volume is really not small, and it can still guarantee their basic interests.

This time, Yan Hanzhang fully understood the intention of Populus euphratica, and he was very generous in the quantity of shipments, which can basically meet the production of these companies for about half a month.

"Mr. Yan, you did a good job! But next, we need to be careful when adjusting our prices. Remember, our products are a little worse than others after all. Then we must have a price advantage and stabilize customers with high cost performance. , and gain recognition from consumers.”

Populus euphratica means that prices cannot always follow the market.Although the price increase is very good for the profit of the company, the most urgent task for Glamor Semiconductor is to seize the market.

This is very important, and we must not put the cart before the horse.

"Mr. Hu, I understand. In fact, we can sign an agreement with these multinational companies today, which has already delayed the price increase of memory chips."

Yan Hanzhang is also very clear about what to do to benefit himself, and even short-sighted people cannot sit in this seat.

I don’t know if Yan Hanzhang’s mouth has opened up. After a week, the price of memory chips has only increased by less than 2 percentage points.

One of the important reasons for this is that Glamor Semiconductor has suddenly increased its shipments.According to the calculations of interested people, the shipment volume of Glamor Semiconductor at this time is equivalent to twice that of the bottom period.

"Is Charm Semiconductor crazy? This round of memory chip prices have rebounded. So far, compared to the bottom, it is less than 25%, only a mere 21%. The other party is so eager to sell? Could it be that there is a problem with the capital chain? ?”

S star has always been full of malice towards competitors.

But the current situation has changed, and the senior management of Star S ordered the relevant departments to come up with a response plan as soon as possible.

And MG is also puzzled, how did they manage to quietly expand production capacity of this charming semiconductor that has been heavily suppressed by North America?
Under normal circumstances, companies that have been suppressed by North America will quickly shrink their business scale, so that they can avoid the losses caused by the sharp reduction of the market.

But Glamor Semiconductor did the opposite, and actually had the strength to expand production capacity, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

MG did not dare to take it lightly. After discussion by the board of directors, it decided to immediately expand the current production capacity by 10%.

But obviously, the greed and hesitation of S Star and other international giants made Glamor Semiconductor seize a good opportunity and tore a big hole in the market.

Charm Semiconductor has been increasing its shipments during this period, and within a month, the memory chip products accumulated in the previous period have been sold out.
