Chapter 0654 rapid progress
After talking to Fu Shande, Li Rui felt a little tired.
Dealing with an old fox like Trum consumes too much brain cells.
If Li Rui wasn't a reborn person and didn't know the secrets behind all the bloody incidents surrounding the recent elections in Magnesium, he would definitely not be able to defeat this old fox.
But who knows that he is a reborn person? Now that he knows what will happen in the future, it will be much easier to deal with Trum.
And Li Rui is also considering whether to become a supporter behind Trump, support him in participating in the general election four years later, and become the man behind the president of the United States?
If that day comes, we can use this identity to gain more benefits for Hua Country.
Li Rui thought for a moment and temporarily put aside the matters in the Magnesium Country. He had just returned to Haizhou and was faced with a myriad of things, and he had to deal with them one by one.
After saying hello to Chen Qinglian and Shao Xuan, Li Rui went downstairs. Lu Yong was already waiting in his Bentley. Behind the Bentley was the T-family Alfa, with Ye Haisheng and Zhao Zhenkai sitting in the car.
These three people form Li Rui's current security team, responsible for protecting his daily life.
The car sped away and went straight to the Xingrui mobile phone factory.
The former Haida Electronics Factory was extremely dilapidated. Since it was acquired by Li Rui years ago, it has undergone earth-shaking changes in just over a month.
Even the slightest shadow of desolation has disappeared, replaced by spacious and smooth internal roads, brand-new factories and research institutes. Although the green trees are not yet green, they can remind people of the lush greenness after the arrival of summer.
There is even a star-shaped pool built on the roadside when we first entered the factory, which probably symbolizes the star character in the Xingrui mobile phone, which is also very imaginative.
The appearance has changed so much. Lu Yong exclaimed while driving.
Li Rui nodded and said: It seems that during the Chinese New Year, they not only developed engineering machines, but also did some decoration. This is how it looks like a high-tech enterprise.
When Li Rui walked into the research institute, Qian Weichen and a group of engineers were debugging. When the boss came back after half a month's absence, everyone stepped forward to say hello.
Li Rui took out the red envelopes he had prepared and distributed them one by one: Thank you for your hard work.
There are names on the red envelopes, which include overtime pay during the Spring Festival and New Year's benefits. The total sum is quite large, which is enough to boost military morale.
Qian Weichen pinched the thick red envelope and said in surprise: Mr. Li, is it too much?
Compared with everyone's contribution, I only think it is small. Li Rui smiled and said, the red envelope has been distributed, you can show me the engineering machine.
Qian Weichen smiled bitterly and said: Let's take a look at the first version first. The second version using Qualcomm chips is still being debugged and is more difficult. It will take about a week to complete.
For a group of engineers, developing engineering machines on the chip platform that MediaTek has already completed is like putting together Lego blocks. Some people have made the parts and others have designed the drawings. As long as they follow the steps, they can put them together without making any mistakes.
If the parts are stuffed where they should be, then it is considered 80% successful.
Switching to Qualcomm chips, the level of difficulty increases rapidly. Whether it is parts or drawings, you have to figure it out yourself. There are various adaptation problems along the way. Some can be solved by yourself, and some can only be helped by Qualcomm technicians. There is a kind of
The feeling of being overwhelmed.
But everyone can also feel that there is a huge difference in the use effects achieved by the two chips.
MediaTek engineering machines look decent, but the quality in every aspect is very average. Qualcomm chips have improved the overall performance by more than one level.
This is like marrying a wife. You can marry a Wuyan with a gift of 20,000 yuan, and you can marry a Xishi with a gift of 200,000 yuan. Although marrying a Xishi requires more gifts and more effort, the feeling of getting it is indeed not the same.
Same!
Li Rui briefly played with the engineering machine. In fact, he could only see various parameters and could not feel much. Moreover, he was not very interested in the engineering machine on the MediaTek platform.
On the contrary, it was the mobile OS system that Wang Junyu was developing that attracted Li Rui's interest even more.
Wang Junyu came to Haizhou with his girlfriend Mu Ying a few years ago. They lived in a two-bedroom dormitory with one living room and full appliances provided by the company. Li Rui gave him such generous treatment, and he repaid it wholeheartedly. During this time, he has been working with the engineers
Working overtime together and working around the clock every day, we have already developed the prototype of the os system.
Although the interface is still a bit ugly, almost all the functions proposed by Li Rui in the design concept can be realized.
Li Rui briefly tested a few functions and nodded: Good job!
Wang Junyu said shyly: Thank you, boss.
After seeing the research results during this period, Li Rui called Qian Weichen into the office to talk alone.
I think everyone is not very motivated. Li Rui got straight to the point. Are you emotional about my choice?
Qian Weichen said hurriedly: That's not the case, everyone just feels that the time spent has been wasted.
It's not a waste of MediaTek's technology. In fact, it is still possible, but you also know that I am about to acquire Freescale's chip business. In the future, we will enter the low-end chip market, and the main competitor will be MediaTek. Of course, our own mobile phones will
Use your own chips, but while developing your own chips, you must also understand the advantages and disadvantages of your competitors. Li Ruidao.
Qian Weichen took a deep breath. He naturally knew Li Rui's ambition, but he didn't expect it to progress so quickly!
When he first met Li Rui a few months ago, Li Rui had only one idea. Qian Weichen wondered why he had lost his mind at that time and actually believed Li Rui's words.
With no people, no factories, no technology, and only money, trying to build a mobile phone from scratch within a year is simply crazy!
He really didn't expect that Li Rui was so fast. In such a short period of time, they had a factory, engineers, and developers, built engineering machines, and even acquired Freescale's technology to develop their own.
Chip!
The future of Xingrui Mobile looks bright, but Qian Weichen is also vaguely worried about Li Rui, worried that he has taken too big a step.
The mobile phone and chip industry is definitely an industry that makes a lot of money. In their heyday, MediaTek and Qualcomm were profit giants that made tens of billions a year.
But if you lose money, you will lose your pants. Otherwise, why would old chip manufacturers such as Texas Instruments and Freescale not be able to survive? Otherwise, why would super companies such as Mochi and Nokia, which once shared half of the mobile phone market, suddenly be on the verge of bankruptcy?
Woolen cloth?
Li Rui may be rich, but hundreds of millions and billions are just a drop in the bucket in this industry. Research and development of a new generation of chips often requires billions of investment, and the investment must be recouped if results are achieved. If no results are achieved, the investment will be lost.
Money is more distressing than wasting money.
Qian Weichen is only good at making mobile phones and does not know how to develop chips. He always feels that Li Rui's idea of controlling both the front-end and the back-end is too extreme.
