631 Everything is under control (4k)(2/2)
……………
In order to implement 3G, the telecommunications industry has carried out the largest merger and reorganization, merging the original six major operators of China Unicom, China Telecom, China Mobile, China Railcom, China Netcom and China Satcom into three.
Satellite Communications and China Telecom merged to form a new telecommunications company.
China Unicom and China Netcom merged to form New China Unicom.
China Mobile and China Railcom merged to obtain the coveted fixed-line business, which is to operate broadband business.
Three companies, corresponding to three licenses of 3G technical standards, namely WCDMA, A.
The weakest China Unicom got WCDMA.
China Mobile, which has the strongest strength and the richest financial resources, will have a big responsibility to carry out the domestic 3G standard TD-SCDMA.
"Mr. Lu, what do you think this is?"
In Lu Fei's Yonghegong courtyard, Wang Jianzhou poured out his frustrations. After all, TD-SCDMA was a big pit.
"There is no way. Who told you to move more people and make more money? 3G construction requires a lot of money to invest in base station construction and technology research and development."
Lu Fei consoled him and said: "You can't just give up because you think the cards dealt are not good. Then how can we develop our own 3G standard?"
"I also know this. I have no objection to China Unicom taking WCDMA, but why should it give CDMA2000 to China Telecom? The key is that China Mobile will pay for the license!"
Wang Jianzhou snorted coldly, feeling quite unhappy.
"You don't have to envy Telecom. Most of CDMA technology is monopolized by Qualcomm." Lu Fei touched his chin, "I know Qualcomm very well. Qualcomm likes to eat alone. If it can't eat, it will eat more and occupy more. At most, it will be given to others.
Let’s take a sip of soup. If it weren’t for TD-SCDMA, I’m afraid Qualcomm wouldn’t even let us drink this sip of soup.”
"Mr. Lu, what you said is fair!"
Wang Jianzhou had a wry smile on his face.
"Come on, let's drink."
Lu Fei raised the red wine and offered words of comfort.
Although TD-SCDMA is not as good as WCDMA and CDMA in terms of technology and network speed, it is better to have it yourself than to have it yourself. No matter how bad it is, it is our own patented technology after all.
Nowadays, the IT and TMT industries are in global competition. They do not have their own standards and can only be controlled by others. Not to mention the high patent fees, they may be expelled from the market at any time.
"Oh, who says it's not the case!"
Wang Jianzhou clinked his glass and drank it in one gulp.
Lu Fei smiled and said: "Don't be so negative. With the users and wealth you have accumulated over the years, even if it only operates TD-SCDMA and has nearly 400 million user number resources, China Mobile still has a great advantage, which is enough to survive into the 4G era.
"
"That's what we think too, and we'll stay up until 4G."
Wang Jianzhou sighed, "Let TD be TD. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Compared with 2G, the 3G speed is still a qualitative improvement. If you lose some customers, you will lose some. We accept it."
"In fact, there is still an incremental market in China."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes and said, "You can dig by moving."
"Where is it! Say it quickly! Say it quickly!
"
Wang Jianzhou took the initiative to pour him wine.
“Don’t PHS still have 80 million users?”
The corner of Lu Fei's lips raised. Telecom obtained the CDMA license. PHS, as a compromised backward technology, naturally had no value.
Didn't Gao Qisheng in "Hurry Up" just smash his hands?
With the decline of PHS, users are destined to change careers and join one of the three major operators. This is a good opportunity to cut off the money.
What do PHS users use PHS diagrams for?
Isn’t it just that the rates are cheap!
As long as the PHS network transfer plan launched by China Mobile provides purchase subsidies or even free gifts, coupled with reasonable charging packages, why worry about poaching PHS's massive users?
Even if one third is poached, it will still be nearly 30 million!
"Okay! It's good, but the trouble is..."
Wang Jianzhou's eyes lit up, then dimmed.
The industrial chain of TD-SCDMA is not mature enough. The terminal alone is a big problem and there is no machine available at all.
Currently, there are only low-end phones developed by Datang and Xinyoutong.
Because European and American manufacturers, led by Qualcomm, suppress or even kill China's 3G standards, they do not produce TD-SCDMA chips. Basically, mobile phones on the market do not support TD-SCDMA.
"That's why I invited you here today."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.
"Mr. Lu, you mean you will help us!?"
Wang Jianzhou was surprised and happy.
"Of course, will I stand by and watch? Will I just sit back and watch as China Mobile continues to develop TD-SCDMA?"
Lu Fei teased in a joking tone.
"Mr. Lu, no, brother Lu, thank you, brother!" Wang Jianzhou was extremely excited, "I won't say anything anymore, I'm all in the wine. Come on, I'll toast you one, no, three glasses!"
"But I also have requirements."
Lu Feiyang raised his hand, TD-SCDMA was a big pitfall, and China Mobile had to subsidize it no matter what.
"No problem! Absolutely no problem!"
Wang Jianzhou patted his chest, "We originally planned to spend tens of billions of subsidies every year to improve the TD-SCDMA industry chain, but there is a lack of terminals, a lack of chips, a lack of communications, in short, a lack of everything."
"For mobile phone terminals, in addition to logic, I will also arrange for Xiaomi, Tianyu, and Shenzhou brands to follow up. As for chips, don't worry. The Paper has already cooperated with Datang on TD-SCDMA and has several projects.
In addition, I will also convince Huawei and ZTE to participate, what do you think?"
Lu Fei looked sideways, observing him.
In the previous life, the domestic chip industry began to rise driven by TD-SCDMA. Because foreign manufacturers such as Qualcomm did not cooperate, they had to roll up their sleeves and do it on their own.
Lianxin, Spreadtrum, and Huawei have benefited a lot from this.
The one who has benefited the most is MediaTek. The TD chip market has become an important market that Chinese chip companies compete for.
Helping TD-SCDMA not only lays the foundation for TD-LTE in the 4G era, but also the entire logic will benefit. Freescale's low-end chips will come in handy.
Dram chips also have a huge gap!
After all, PHS has 80 million users.
China Mobile will definitely not be able to afford it, as well as China Telecom and China Unicom.
The logic is that all three companies can take it all. The huge production capacity of Yangtze Memory's acquisition of Qimonda will be put to use. In addition, in the second half of 2009, Microsoft will launch the Windows 7 system——
Qimonda's crisis was easily solved.
"Brother Lu, don't say anything anymore."
Wang Jianzhou was so moved that his eyes filled with tears. At the critical moment, Mr. Lu was the most reliable, and China Mobile always supported him without any fuss!
Instead of toasting red wine, he replaced it with white wine and poured a large bowl full of it, "Remember this favor move, in the future it will come to 4G, 5G, no matter how many G's it is, we will definitely support you!"
"Who among us brothers is following whom? Cheers."
