198 Not mad at Motorola (monthly pass 1750

"It's useless for us to continue to drag on now. Motorola does not allow us to put it in mainland China for production. On the side of Xiangjiang, without technology, the other party will definitely not give core technical information." Liu Dongsheng knew that the game substrate was in Xie Kai's hands.

Xie Kai will never be put in Xiangjiang for production.

He has been to Dongfeng City, and he knows the situation there better than anyone else.

Tens of thousands of people are just supported by this thing.

"They are obviously worried that we will provide chips to the mainland military." Liao Dong said.

The use of this chip is more extensive in the military industry.

On the one hand, what the mainland has learned is for research, and on the other hand, it is for weapons and equipment. They are all insiders.

"Ding..." Suddenly, the phone in the room rang.

Liao Dong hurried to answer the phone. After a while, he said to the people who looked expectant with a strange expression, "Frensby said that there is time this morning, so let's go and find him."

"Are they ready to agree to us establish a factory in the mainland?" Zheng Quan smiled on his face.

Liu Dongsheng was not so optimistic, "It is very likely that they will still stick to their original purpose and agree to our production in Xiangjiang and send someone to monitor it."

"Will your nephew and the others agree with this?" Liao Dong asked.

Brother Quan looked at the two of them with a weird look on his face.

He has not yet figured out who developed the game console. He asked Zheng Yucheng but did not get an answer, but just asked him to maintain his cooperation with Liu Dongsheng.

Nowadays, the mainland hopes to obtain a large amount of high-performance chips such as 86,000 through the production of game consoles.

"Tomorrow, let's see what the motorcycle company people say. What if they figure it out, there will be at least 500,000 orders a year, with orders of more than 10 million US dollars." Zheng Quan didn't know what Motorola people were planning.

If you can contact, you will have a chance.

"Mr. Frensby, will those people in Hong Kong agree with our request? This price is 40% faster than our factory price... They made it clear from the beginning that to set up a production factory in mainland China, the cost of mainland China is cheaper and the government discount is very large..." The assistant looked at Frensby with a worried look on his face.

Their quotes to merchants from Xiangjiang were 40% higher than the international market price, and the other party had no intention of bargaining at all.

Motorola cannot accept it by simply suggesting to set up a production plant in mainland China.

If it is just a 4-bit or 8-bit processor, this is not a big problem.

16-bit, all over the world, is high-performance.

Nowadays, 32-bit processor chips have not yet made any breakthroughs.

“They don’t have contact with Intel and other units that can provide similar processors,” Frensby said. “Now we are losing the market and if we can get bigger orders, it will be very beneficial for the entire company.”

Motorola's current market in the chip field is constantly being eroded by companies such as Intel.

No one's new generation of chips has made breakthroughs.

Although it is more powerful than Intel's 8051 microcontroller, Intel has been squeezing the Motorola 68000 chip market, which has not invested much in development of higher performance chips.

Motorola's main business is the communications industry, and the company's board of directors is not willing to provide more funds to develop higher-performance chips.

The 68000 chip has made them very satisfied.

As people in the chip business department, they can only continue to develop the market and obtain more orders, so that they can continue to invest in the chip field R&D.

The next day, before nine o'clock in the morning, Liu Dongsheng followed Zheng Quan and others toward the Motorola headquarters.

Frensby did not arrange for anyone to pick them up. He went to the door to call him before asking Zheng Quan and others to go directly to his office.

"Mr. Flensby, thank you very much for taking the precious time to receive us." Zheng Quan's fluent English surprised Liu Dongsheng.

Liu Dongsheng also spoke English, otherwise he would not dare to come to the United States to have sex.

But his English is very poor.

"Zheng, thank you very much for your patience. After research and discussion by our board of directors and some special policies of our country, our company cannot agree to your proposal to produce in mainland China." Frensby emphasized, "If you produce in Xiangjiang, it will not have any impact on the cooperation between us."

"The production cost of Xiangjiang is much higher than that of the mainland. There are too many people on a small island, and all kinds of costs cannot be compared with mainland China, and there is no land, tax or even policy preferential treatment!" Zheng Quan said calmly, "As businessmen, we are chasing the greatest profit."

"If you insist, we will not be able to reach a cooperation. We can provide the high-performance microprocessors you need, only we and Intel. Their processors are not suitable for your needs!" Frensby said. "If you agree, I can make the decision and reduce the price of each chip by 5% as your cost loss."

Frensby is very eager to reach a contract.

He could not even ask whether these guys would secretly provide such high-performance chips to the mainland military.

Production in Xiangjiang started to be supervised, and with the wiseness of these Chinese people in Xiangjiang, they had a complete way to deal with supervisors.

In fact, Frensby has made concessions.

These words cannot be clearly stated.

Zheng Quan would not understand even if he understood the other party’s thoughts, he would not agree.

China needs foreign exchange.

After their current market research, even if the price is as high as US$3,500 per unit, there will be orders of more than 100,000 units.

Hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign exchange are a considerable income for China.

They may even become the number one company in Shenzhen.

Those are small things, and national interests are above everything else.

At least, this is true for Zheng Quan.

"Mr. Furanceby, if you finally decide this, we can only express regret." Zheng Quan shook his head and said.

He could hear the other party's concessions, but this concessions were far from enough.

"I hope you can consider our proposal more." Frensby said to them loudly as Zheng Quan and others left.

Zheng Quan said he would consider it, but did not make any stops.

"Intel said it refused. In Europe, Italy's SGS Semiconductor Company and France's Thomson Company were interested in our orders, but they could only provide 8-bit microprocessors, which could not meet our use." Back at the hotel, Liu Dongsheng proposed to look for other companies to provide them.

Liao Dong told him that they had not been in vain for more than a month.

"In fact, production in Xiangjiang is also a way." Liao Dong didn't know the inside story.

Liu Dongsheng just vaguely felt that Xie Kai's purpose would definitely not be so simple.

A gaming console originally only needs one chip, but Xie Kai said it needs two.

As for the internal gaming console substrate, Liu Dongsheng was too lazy to disassemble and study it. He didn't understand this thing.

Where did hundreds of thousands of chips go?

Liu Dongsheng doesn't want to think about it.

He could tell if he thought about it a little bit that Xie Kai was in a military base.

"The investment in the production line is at least tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. How to do it? Bank loans? We do not have any collateral. Our customers are unwilling to sign orders before they obtain products!" Zheng Quan shook his head and said.

"I'd better ask them." Liu Dongsheng said.

Now, I can only ask Xie Kai.

It was impossible to call Xie Kai directly across the country, but Tian Li told Liu Dongsheng how to send a telegram to the base.

The telegram is not directly transferred to the base, but is somewhere in Jiayuguan.

With this telegram, the people from Jiayuguan asked about the 404 base through confidential phone number. Finally, they learned that Zheng Yucheng and Xie Kai were in Factory 691. After calling for inquiries, the telegram was forwarded to Factory 691.

"Motorola is unwilling to provide it? Let them produce it in Xiangjiang?" Zheng Yucheng's face turned strange when he saw the content in the telegram.

Does this kid Xie Kai have the ability to predict the future?

They just got to do chip production, but the other party said they would not cooperate with the Chinese.

If the other party knows, would he be so angry that he vomited blood for shooting himself in the foot?

This kind of high-performance chip can be obtained from overseas and can cost hundreds of dollars per piece!

Even if it can be exported to the mainland on a large scale, as long as foreign countries do not lift the ban, the price will only be higher and will not be cheaper.

"How do we reply? Let them agree to produce in Xiangjiang?" Zheng Yucheng asked Xie Kai with a smile.

"It's okay if you are willing to make money from Xiangjiang's company." Xie Kai said calmly. "My uncle and his company will definitely be happy. At most, they can build a substrate production line. Assembling and other components are not worthwhile, they can be sent to outsourced."

"Don't, now we have chips. As long as the first batch is shipped abroad, their chip restrictions will be relaxed." Zheng Yucheng is definitely not happy.

The production profit of a game console is nearly 1,000, although the price has not yet been finalized.

"Then tell them that we will solve the chips ourselves, and it will be easier to negotiate with them at that time!" Xie Kai said.

Even though the base currently has many sources of income and expenses are not small, he does not want to be greedy. A gaming machine can give production costs of about 1,500 yuan.

In this way, each base has a profit of about 800 yuan, and a cost of nearly 100,000 yuan can be provided, which can support the construction of helicopters.

"Can chips be produced in China?" After receiving the reply, Zheng Quan looked disbelieving.

"That's what the telegram said. Let me go back and sign a contract and prepare to build an assembly factory in Shenzhen." Liu Dongsheng said with a smile, "Let Motorola people come and ask us in the future! The market share is getting smaller and smaller, and it is still very awesome!"

"Then let's go back?" Zheng Quan was also happy, "I'm too lazy to be angry with them!"

"Do you want to inform Motorola and tell them that mainland China has such chip manufacturing?" Liao Dong was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.

I have always been angry with motorcycles, although I have not given much anger to them.
