Age of Dreams

() "Oddly rare!"

Xiao Qicai walked out of the Treasure Island Hall, and a slightly weak voice called him to a stop.

Looking back, I saw a man in his forties running over in a hurry.

The young man is thin and not ugly, but there is not much flesh on his face, but his eyes are very piercing.

"You are..." Xiao Qi recalled for a moment, this person seemed to be among the crowd listening to Fujiwara's high-spirited talk just now, but obviously he didn't know him.

"Hehe, Young Master Qi, I'm Sui Zhe from Chenhong Optoelectronics, can I talk to you?" The young man warmly extended his hands to shake hands, seeing Xiao Qi's puzzled face, lowered his voice again, "I just now I heard the conversation between you and Chairman Jiang of AUO, we, Chenhong, are interested in what you said."

Chenhong Optoelectronics! ?

Xiao Qi suddenly had a feeling of "fate is wonderful".

Isn't this Chenhong Optoelectronics one of the four major suppliers of touch screens for the iPad itself?

Originally, Xiao Qi was thinking about not following Gangzhu Qiao's ideas in everything, and was planning to find a few powerful manufacturers, support them by himself, and make everyone rich together.

Unexpectedly, in order to thank Quanta Electronics, I went to cooperate with AU Optronics, but they didn't appreciate it at all, as if what I gave was not a benefit, but a hot potato.

What was even more unexpected was that this Sui Zhe had been eavesdropping just now, and then made a decision so quickly, chasing after him to talk to him.

That being the case, it seems that there is nothing to hesitate.

Thoughts flashed by, Xiao Qi laughed, "Then, Mr. Sui doesn't mind if we talk next to this aisle?"

"how come?"

As soon as Sui Zhe heard that there was something interesting, he followed Xiao Qi for a few steps and arrived at a quieter corner. He just sat down and said impatiently: "Young Master Qi, I didn't hear you very clearly just now, can I trouble you to say your request again? ?"

Xiao Qi nodded and said more carefully than before: "I want to make a 9.7-inch ips capacitive LCD touch screen. The thickness of the touch screen should be controlled within 1mm. The screen must support multi-touch technology. I heard that your company Good at touch technology and modules? It’s just right, make me a system module that matches this kind of touch screen, including microcontrollers and touch screen driver semiconductors, etc. In the future, I will be responsible for bonding the LCD screen and tempered protective glass, and test it by the way Touch effect. In addition. The surface must have a fingerprint-resistant and oil-resistant coating. To avoid leaving ugly fingerprints when touched."

Sui Zhe took out a pen and paper, and wrote down the request he heard on the table. Every time he wrote something, his face became ugly. Finally, he just smiled wryly.

"Qi Shao, now I finally understand why Jiang Dong is such a greedy businessman, he is unwilling to accept your order." Sui Zhe looked at the list of requirements and sighed. "The product you made is either an extremely high-tech product or a lunatic product. It's really too difficult! Can't you make some flexible changes? For example, use TFT instead of ips?"

Both ips and tft are LCD panel technologies, and tft LCD screens can be used in high-end mobile phones, but compared to tft, ips is more advanced, commonly known as "super tft".

Especially relative to the "full viewing angle screen" required by the tablet computer. The ips LCD panel has a large viewing angle in any direction of the full viewing angle screen, and it will not change color due to the expansion of the area, and the effect of displaying images is better than that of TFT, so it is a very good choice for tablet computers . Much more than tft.

Of course, good things will not be cheap, the price of ips LCD panels will be about 30%-60% higher than that of TFT LCD panels. Coupled with the relatively high scrap rate, this is one of the important reasons why Jiang Yanxin of AU Optronics was unwilling to do it just now.

"It's not difficult and you don't need to bother you professionals." Because Chenhong Optoelectronics itself is the supplier of the ipad's capacitive touch screen. Xiao Qi didn't hide it, "None of the standards can be changed. I need six months to succeed in the experiment, and another three months for mass production. As long as it can be achieved, I will give you an order of 50 million, and sign a contract of no less than three months a year." For an order of tens of millions of yuan, the profit will be guaranteed to you. Even if you are not willing to bear the cost of product development, I can afford it all."

"Huh? You didn't tell Chairman Jiang that you would bear the research and development costs!" Sui Zhe asked curiously.

"Chenhong Optoelectronics is weaker than AU Optronics, I can help you." Xiao Qi smiled, "I believe you also know that I have almost 20 billion yuan in cash on hand, and I support you to do this well. It’s not a big problem. But there is one thing, the final patent of this ips capacitive touch screen that supports multi-touch belongs to me.”

"There's nothing wrong with this. If you pay the money, it's naturally yours." Sui Zhe agreed, "This also helps us share the risk. After all, if you spend money that's not your own, you have to be bolder and you will Be successful faster. You won’t be constrained by the group of people on the board of directors, making your development slow.”

"You are really straightforward." The young man smiled, "How about it, do you dare to take this research and development?"

"Why don't you dare?"

Before coming here, Sui Zhe had done a lot of consideration.

If you want to fight for something, you have to take risks.

According to Xiao Qi's previous deeds, Sui Zhe knew that Xiao Qi must have a certain degree of confidence in doing this, and it depends on whether he has the courage to follow.

Although it may fail, it is also possible to embrace a thick thigh and grow stronger like MediaTek, Quanta and other manufacturers.

Sui Zhe is neither lacking in reason nor lacking in gambling, so his inclination is to gamble.

After Xiao Qi was willing to bear the research and development costs, Sui Zhe didn't hesitate at all, "If Qi Shao thinks it's okay, we can sign the contract tomorrow and Monday. We'll discuss the specific price after the product comes out."

Xiao Qi said in a harmonious voice, "Tomorrow is tomorrow, Mr. Sui doesn't have to worry, I, Xiao Qi, will never change."

Sui Zhe was a little embarrassed, "Hehe, I'm worried that someone will interfere again, please don't mind, Young Master Qi."

"It's okay, then we'll see you tomorrow."

Xiao Qi gave him his business card, turned around and left the Treasure Island Hall.

Chenhong Optoelectronics is very good at touch technology, and it is handy for multi-touch. This is one of the reasons why Qiao Gangzhu chose them back then. Let them develop the touch screen and touch system modules together, and solve them by the way. another small technical problem.

Compared with the ips capacitive touch screen, the appearance of the ultra-thin LCD screen is also a difficult problem, but because the LCD panel technology is very mature, only Japan and South Korea have mastered the top production technology, and control all the patents, It's useless for Xiao Qi to be anxious, just choose a good one when the time comes.
