Chapter 622 Out of stock, waiting for price increase
"So, how long will it take for the new product to be mass-produced?"
Regardless of the generation of Populus euphratica, as long as the product can meet the market demand, it will be put on the market as soon as possible.
"Our latest generation of flash memory and mobile phone memory products can be mass-produced in at most one month."
At this time, Yan Hanzhang took over the topic.
In the morning, Yan Hanzhang, Sa Hongli and others discussed production issues. According to Lao Sa, there is no problem with the production process, trial production is also going smoothly, and mass production can be achieved within a month.
"Very good, let's go see Mr. Sa later."
Hu Yang smiled slightly, feeling more confident in his plan.
Next, Takuya Sakamoto also introduced the research and development status of he and his team. They focus on the memory of mobile devices, and their research work has also achieved impressive results.
"Everyone's work is progressing very well. I would like to thank you on behalf of the entire company. Okay, now Mr. Yan will just accompany me to look around. Mr. Yang and Director Sakamoto, you can go and do your work."
The research and development work of Yang Chenglin and Sakamoto Takuya is very heavy. To be honest, they don't want to waste half a day and stay with Populus euphratica.
Hu Yang and Yan Hanzhang took a quick look around the research institute, then drove to the Charming Semiconductor Magic City Factory.
The person who greeted their group was Sa Hongli.
"Lao Sa, you haven't shaved yet. Do you think the factory is your home again?"
Sa Hongli is unshaven, but his complexion looks good and he is particularly energetic.
"Haha, Mr. Hu, it seems you know me best. Come on, I'll take you to the factory to have a look. While I'm at it, I'll make a report to you."
Sa Hongli is a happy person and doesn't have so many etiquettes.
After receiving Hu Yang and others, he directly pulled them into the production workshop.
"Mr. Hu, Mr. Yan, you see, this is a product produced by the N+1 generation using 32-layer stacking technology. I won't talk about the performance improvement of the product. Anyway, it is all in the data. What I want to say is that after trial production,
, I am confident that the yield rate of mass production will be over 95%.”
Sa Hongli is definitely a master-level talent in the process technology of memory chips.
If he says it can be done, it will be done.
"This is great! Mr. Sa, can mass production really be achieved within a month?"
Hu Yang was naturally very happy. What he needed most now was to buy time.
"One month is more than enough time! Mr. Hu, I'm not bragging. We have started accepting risk orders in the past two days."
The first mass production definitely involves certain risks. Those who are willing to be the first to eat crabs will have both risks and opportunities.
Hu Yang was curious about who was so radical and willing to be the first to eat crabs.
Sa Hongli did not sell out, and directly told Hu Yang and others that the first customer of Charming Semiconductor's new products produced by the N+1 generation using 32-layer stacking technology is Mingkang Communications.
"It's Mr. Gao, what am I saying? So, their new generation of smartphones will be on sale again?"
More advanced mobile phone chips, mobile phone memory and flash memory will of course be used in Mincom Communications' new products.
But before that, Hu Yang had not heard Gao Mingkang mention this matter. It seems that with the development of the enterprise, Mingkang Communication's new products are emerging one after another, and this kind of thing is no longer worth mentioning.
Hu Yang sighed casually and followed Sa Hongli around the factory area carefully before returning to the company's reception room.
"Mr. Yan, Mr. Sa, technological progress is certainly worthy of attention. However, we should not relax our efforts to expand the production capacity of DRAM memory chips.
We have our advantage, which is excellent cost performance. The prices of products from international giants such as S Star are still a bit higher."
To put it bluntly, the price war is all about the resilience of the company.
Companies with insufficient strength may have disappeared under one price cycle after another. Companies with sufficient capital reserves will also enjoy the benefits of a new round of price increases after experiencing painful price decline cycles.
of dividends.
Populus euphratica wants to prepare a large amount of products in the early stages of this price increase.
After these products are produced, they will not be put on the market immediately. Instead, they will be put on the market gradually and in batches, striving to make up for some of the previous losses.
"Mr. Hu, don't worry. There is a dedicated person in charge of daily production. Our memory chip production capacity can be expanded soon."
Sa Hongli patted his chest, and Hu Yang let go of his worries.
After staying in Magic City for three days, Hu Yang took Yan Hanzhang and others non-stop to visit Charming Semiconductor's factories across the country.
During this trip, Hu Yang barely paid attention to his other companies, even the Pudong branch and the Beijing branch, and just left.
When we returned to the deep sea, exactly half a month had passed.
Charming Semiconductor officially announced the launch of N+1 generation flash memory produced with 32-layer stacking technology.
At the same time, the company also quietly expanded the production capacity of DRAM memory chips and required cooperative units such as Ark Computer to sign price guarantee agreements to jointly cope with the new round of price increases.
"Ayang, do you miss us? Mom and Sister Yueyue can't bear to leave the child, so I'll stay in Yangcheng for one more week, and we'll go back next week."
Back home, Tian Sichun and the little guy haven't come back yet. Tian Sichun called to tell them that they would stay in Yangcheng for a few more days.
"That's okay, I'll pick you up next week."
Although he missed them a little, Hu Yang still agreed that Tian Sichun and his son would come back next week. He was so busy during this period that he couldn't take care of them even if they were at home.
"Mr. Hu, do you want to eat at home or go out for lunch?"
Wu Xinhui looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon. The kitchen had asked her several times if she wanted to prepare lunch.
"Let's eat at home, I'm too lazy to go out."
Hu Yang confessed and went upstairs to take a shower. After taking a shower, Wu Xinhui told him that Zhong Yilin had called.
Hu Yang nodded, indicating that he understood, but he had no intention of going back immediately. He estimated that it was probably a matter of inviting him to dinner or something like that.
He had just come back and hadn't even gone to the company yet. He really didn't have the heart to deal with such a trivial matter.
After lunch, Chang Sheng called.
"Mr. Hu, you're back. I want to see you. When are you free? I'm really urgent! It's urgent!"
Chang Sheng didn't know where he got the news, but he knew the whereabouts of Populus euphratica very well.
"You can see me at any time, but Mr. Chang, are you too well-informed? I just got home in the morning and your call came after me."
Populus euphratica doesn't mind such things, at most he is just a little curious.
"Haha, I just heard about it too. Didn't you introduce me to a customer, that Mr. Zhong? This guy sits in the company's sales department every day waiting for goods, and I can't do anything about him. The news about your return today
, I still listen to what he said."
Of course Chang Sheng would not hide it from Populus euphratica, this is not a big deal.
Hu Yang thought for a moment and figured it out. While he was taking a shower, Wu Xinhui received a call from Zhong Yilin, telling the other party that she had returned to the deep sea.
"Mr. Chang, I just had lunch and need to take a break. Let's do this. At three o'clock in the afternoon, you come to my office and we'll talk about it after we meet."
Hu Yang made an appointment with Chang Sheng and hung up the phone.
At noon, Hu Yang took a nap and then came to the investment building.
"Mr. Hu, I'm sorry to disturb you just after you came back. I have no choice but to do it. Charming Semiconductor has stuck the memory chips and won't send them out. I'm going to run out of food soon..."
Changsheng has been having a headache recently, and originally planned to take the opportunity to stock up on some memory chips when the price is at the bottom. However, the supply of goods on the market is scarce. Not only the output of foreign manufacturers such as S Star and MG is very low, but also Charming Semiconductor.
But I heard that Charming Semiconductor was expanding its production capacity, but not only did it not expand supply, it even signed a price guarantee agreement with the company.
"Mr. Chang, please be patient. This is my idea."
Hu Yang smiled slightly and raised his hand to stop Chang Sheng from chattering.
"You are also aware of the plight of Charming Semiconductor today. It has been doing loss-making business before. Now it is finally possible to see the dawn of industry recovery. If it were you, what would you do?
What I mean is very simple. As long as the price can cross the profit and loss line, Charming Semiconductor will gradually increase supply.
The reason why you need to sign a price guarantee agreement is that you are afraid that the supply price you get will be cheap, and then you will sell it without any care.
Mr. Chang, this is a war without gunpowder, everything is for survival. Therefore, don’t think too much, it is useless. Don’t worry, international giants such as S Star are not without pressure. They have fought so hard
How can you not think about recovering blood after a long price war?"
Hu Yang did not tell Changsheng Charming Semiconductor about the specific future output. Anyway, he will know it sooner or later. It is useless to say more now.
According to his research and judgment on international giants such as S Star, they will definitely make full use of this round of rising prices. In other words, the price of memory chips must rise by at least 30% from the bottom before they will slowly increase shipments.
Charming Semiconductor's current problem is that its memory chip market share is very small. Hu Yang plans to take advantage of this round of reshuffle to quickly seize the market.
Therefore, Charming Semiconductor will not wait too long. If the price rebounds by about 10% from the bottom, the company will increase sales.
As for the guaranteed price agreement, that can be ignored. Its purpose is just to cover up people's eyes in the early stage.
Chang Sheng felt dizzy after hearing this. Although he had many questions that he had no answers to, he did not dare to question Hu Yang's decision.
Anyway, there will soon be sufficient supply of raw materials. A rising tide lifts all boats, and Ark Computer can still make money.
"Okay, Mr. Hu, then I'll go back and get ready."
Chang Sheng didn't get the result he wanted, but the result wasn't bad either.
In fact, he came to Hu Yang with a bargain-hunting mentality, but the manufacturer is not a fool. Who would lose money to give you this opportunity?
