0402. BYD who is not doing a good job

{Time: February 2008}

{Location:China}

After confirming the sample, Ning Zimo, as the owner, personally led Cao Dewang of Fuyao Group and his party to Fuyao Optical Laboratory. Ning Zimo had to witness the glass test data with his own eyes.

Cao Bin, deputy captain of the security team, had already led two team members to drive two commercial vehicles and were waiting downstairs. Ning Zimo nodded with him and got in the car.

After the Chinese New Year, Wang Meng had already led a team of 12 people, together with Tang Ruiwen and four other people, to continue to the west. Therefore, the security of the Emperor Penguin Cambrian Park is currently solely responsible for the security of the Emperor Penguin Cambrian Park.

Fuyao Optical Laboratory is located in the Emperor Penguin Cambrian Park. As the car slowly passed through the buildings in the park, Cao Dewang finally saw what is so special about the "Cambrian Park" that the company's employees call it.

.

Seeing that his respected senior, the head of the family, was full of curiosity, Wang Zijun took the initiative to introduce him:

"The left side of our car is currently passing by the Genesis branch of Cambrian, which is responsible for the research and development of all physical products inside and outside the park. From mold prototyping and accessories matching to small batch production, Genesis is equipped with various advanced equipment at home and abroad.

."

Cao Dewang carefully discovered that this young and beautiful Emperor Penguin secretary was very organized when describing the business of the park.

At the same time, the speed of the car slowly slowed down when she started talking.

Cao Dewang was very impressed by these small discoveries.

Sure enough, Emperor Penguin Group can achieve good results in the Internet industry because it is meticulous enough in all aspects, and this meticulousness is also reflected in every aspect of the cooperation between Emperor Penguin Group and Fuyao Group.

The clear thinking and long-term planning ability of the young leader of the Emperor Penguin Group are not only fully reflected in him, but also demonstrated in real time in the tacit cooperation of the team around him.

All signs indicate that the pyramid of the Emperor Penguin Group is solid and steady from top to bottom!

Cao Dewang was lively in his heart, but at the same time he did not miss Wang Zijun's introduction.

"The building lined up in front of the door here is the warehouse supporting Chuanshi. In addition to providing materials for Emperor Penguin's companies, Chuangshi also opens the material application interface to external third-party cooperative companies. As long as the company submits the corresponding requirements in Luban ERP in advance

, Genesis Park will assist in arranging resources.”

Cao Dewang's eyes widened when he heard this, "In other words, Genesis combines third parties to develop products. With the help of everyone's creativity, Genesis opens the supply chain to those in need of new product development?"

"Yes." Wang Zijun nodded.

"Oh..." Cao Dewang kept nodding his head. Within two seconds, he raised his head and said to Ning Zimo, "The Emperor Penguin idea is indeed a good idea. This will integrate superior resources and avoid many problems in the product development process.

In particular, the issue of materials for new products has always been a major hurdle faced by many small and medium-sized companies."

After all, Cao Dewang is a man in a manufacturing company, and he can see through the key points of the Fourth Age at a glance.

Ning Zimo was very impressed by this senior's praise and took over the conversation and said, "In the Cambrian Park, only Genesis is divided into east and west parks. The Genesis Software Park in the southern district is adjacent to our Emperor Penguin Center, where a number of software is gathered.

Entrepreneur.

The Genesis Hardware Park in the north is much larger. It has gathered many product development teams that our Diggao Trading has accumulated over the past six years and are interested in developing new products. And its mission is to rely on the neatly equipped equipment and equipment in the park.

An open supply chain allows us to develop products that better meet the needs of end customers.”

"This is really a place with unlimited creativity." Cao Dewang said in admiration, "Zimo, your brain is no wonder that you are called a creative genius on the Internet."

***+***

"Zimo, your brain is no wonder that you are called a creative genius on the Internet."

"Ah" Ning Zi silently looked at the smiling person in front of him. He always felt that it was a very magical thing to hear the words he heard just two days ago from another person with a 20-year age difference.

But before he could change the different scenarios in his mind, the people next to him teased him, "Use our BYD car stamping equipment to stamp the metal casing of mobile phones. I'm afraid only you can think of it."

The person standing with Ning Zimo in this closed test production line within BYD was BYD President Wang Chuanfu. He admired the young man next to him for his unconstrained ideas.

Wang Chuanfu himself founded BYD in 1995. After just a few years of development, BYD has developed into the number one rechargeable battery manufacturer in China and the second in the world.

In 2002, a year before Wang Chuanfu led BYD to enter the automobile manufacturing industry, he visited Foxconn. From that time on, Wang Chuanfu developed a huge interest in the digital product OEM industry.

Beginning in the same year, Wang Chuanfu began a war to grab people. In just a few years, he poached hundreds of employees from Foxconn to set up a digital product processing department, and began to accept mobile phone assembly and production orders from major brands at the time.

Until 2006, BYD almost copied Foxconn's mobile phone foundry chain. In this year, BYD's mobile phone manufacturing revenue was more than four times that of 2004, breaking through the 5 billion mark, becoming the second largest mobile phone foundry!

But although the mobile phone OEM business has been started for several years, Wang Chuanfu never thought that BYD's automobile manufacturing equipment could one day be used in the preparation of mobile phone casings.

Picking up this thin but sturdy case, Wang Chuanfu's eyes sparkled.

Ning Zimo knew what he was thinking. It was nothing more than that such a single-handed operation would give BYD one more possibility in the mobile phone OEM business.

But to Wang Chuanfu, the outer casing, which represented a new technology, was just an imperfect object in the eyes of Ning Zimo, who was used to seeing the cool mobile phones of later generations.

After a pause, Ning Zimo frowned, "If the integrated metal back case solution you mentioned last time could replace the current case solution, the overall effect would look much better."

In his previous life, Ning Zimo has seen that since the official commercialization of mobile phones in 1983, the continuous development of the mobile phone industry has led to the iteration of mobile phone materials and processes. The changes in mobile phone back cases at that time can also be mainly divided into the plastic back case era and the metal back case era.

The back shell era-the four eras of 3D glass/ceramic back shell.

In this life, when the Apple mobile phone was released in 2007, it was as powerful as Steve Jobs and could only use traditional plastic back shell technology on the first-generation Apple mobile phone, which was called an "epoch-making" product.

Therefore, in order to pursue a more beautiful design, better feel, higher strength and narrow bezels, Ning Zimo brought out the metal back shell technology in advance.

However, the metal back shell will bring about a problem, that is, the closed metal shell will produce an effect called "electrostatic shielding", which will block the mobile phone signal. Therefore, in order to avoid the interference of the metal mobile phone shell on the signal, it is necessary to

Add a plastic part to the metal shell.

The same problem occurred with the fourth generation of Apple mobile phones in the previous life. At that time, the famous "Antenna Gate" incident occurred because the fourth generation of Apple mobile phones used metal casings.

But at that time, Apple's mobile phones had accumulated enough fans because of the first three generations of plastic back shell products, so the "Antenna Gate" incident did not dampen the enthusiasm of Apple fans.

But if the same thing happened to Emperor Penguin, who was involved in the mobile phone industry for the first time, the public would not have the same tolerance.

Therefore, Ning Zimo naturally had to find a way to avoid the pitfalls that Apple had stepped on in his previous life.

Ning Zimo reached out and took the metal case in Wang Chuanfu's hand and said, "With the current technology, the sheathing process of adding this metal phone case to the plastic bottom case can only be regarded as a transitional solution to the metal back case.

."

"Hi... Ever since you mentioned this technology in 2007, I have organized a technical research team to do technical research. However, new technologies often require a long time to accumulate, and there are also certain opportunities." Wang Chuanfu said helplessly, "The current set of

The shell solution of metal, plastic and glass is already the best solution integrating beauty, protection and performance."

After a pause, Wang Chuanfu smiled and said, "I believe that when you launch the iPhone this year, it will definitely be the most eye-catching machine."

Wang Chuanfu was already smiling like this while holding the iPhone back case without glass in his hand. Ning Zimo felt that if he knew what the iPhone would look like in the future, he would probably be so shocked that he couldn't move his eyes away.

Ning Zimo didn't say anything, but Wang Chuanfu came closer and said, "Dr. Ning, you see our preparations at BYD have been quite good. Do you want to consider handing over your remaining 2 million battery orders to BYD for production?"

?”

Ning Zimo raised his eyebrows and smiled at Wang Chuanfu.

We must know that Wang Chuanfu is the president of BYD Group Company. He actually personally mentioned an order for 200w fast batteries? Is it just to increase the group's business by tens of millions of yuan?

Wang Chuanfu didn't think so. He definitely valued the future development of iPhones and wanted to use his own initiative to build relationships as soon as possible and enter the high ranking of Emperor Penguin iPhone suppliers.

There is nothing wrong with this as a supporting supplier, but iPhone battery accessories are related to Emperor Penguin's future industrial layout, and Ning Zimo has always had his own plan.

Thinking of this, Ning Zimo simply said frankly, "Brother Wang, except for the production of casings, the assembly and production of Emperor Penguin's iPhones are all handed over to BYD. In terms of price, we did not choose Foxconn, which has more advantages, just because

Form an alliance.”

Foxconn was not chosen for the production of iPhones because Foxconn is likely to manufacture iPhones in the future. The products of two competing companies appear in the same foundry. In this era where extreme confidentiality is still required, there are still many taboos.

For this reason, Ning Zimo would naturally prefer to hand over the order to BYD, which is controlled by Chinese people, for production.

in addition,

"As for the battery, our Emperor Penguin has actually submitted an acquisition offer to Dongguan New Energy Technology. After the other party responds in recent days, our negotiation team will officially start negotiations with the Japanese tdk company. Therefore, BYD can currently acquire half of the iPhones.

We have already shown enough sincerity in ordering supporting batteries.”

Before Ning Zimo finished speaking, the smile on Wang Chuanfu's face had already solidified.

But he quickly reacted, "Mr. Ning is going to enter the energy field?"

"That can only be because Brother Wang's company is too valuable, otherwise I would also like to invest a large amount of money in BYD." Ning Zimo smiled and said, "I am optimistic about the development of this new energy field, but Mr. Wang will definitely not

Too many shares were sold, so I can only fully acquire Dongguan New Energy Technology."

Wang Chuanfu was a bit dumbfounded. BYD's current market value is more than 20 billion, but it is not enough in front of this young man.

Because his Emperor Penguin Group has been developing for 2 years since 2007, and Emperor Penguin had been developing in the fields of Internet, software, games and animation for 4 years before establishing the group in 2006.

Therefore, the person in front of me is no longer the original brother who was only worth 5.6 billion U.S. dollars. The assets he owns are definitely enough to buy the entire BYD.

But it is possible for a wholly-owned acquisition to happen to Dongguan New Energy, but it is impossible to happen to BYD, even if it is only a "large part".

So, the supplier status with more weight was declined?

Thinking of this, and then thinking about the 4 million iPhone orders and the future possibilities of iPhone, Wang Chuanfu did not continue on this topic.

"Then, the official production time of iPhone will still be as expected?"
