Age of Dreams

Chapter 220 Broadcom Chip

() He is not the most terrified, the most terrified is Yu Shanshan.

Asked Chen Yulian Xiao Qi's US phone number, she has been desperately calling Xiao Qi for the past two days, asking what is going on, and why such a large fund freeze?

It stands to reason that these funds are Xiao Qi's own, and how they are used has nothing to do with the bank, but Yu Shanshan has a good heart, so Xiao Qi didn't argue with her, he just told Yu Shanshan what to do when he returns to China.

Originally, he didn't intend to use domestic money, but now that the two VAM agreements have been concluded, 2.4 billion US dollars has been frozen. Xiao Qi naturally had no choice but to ask Citibank to sign an agreement with him, and they would freeze part of the funds and exchange them for him. 500 million U.S. dollars came out, and it will be used when going to Japan and South Korea.

So it’s no wonder that Yu Shanshan is in a hurry. The reason is that her superiors are in a hurry. If the nearly 12.3 billion yuan is taken away by foreign banks, it will undoubtedly be extremely difficult for the cash flow reserves of the Construction Bank of Shuchuan Province. Big hit.

Comforting Yu Shanshan who was forced to be pitiful, Xiao Qi put down the phone and smiled wryly.

I really don't know what the senior management of domestic banks thinks.

Money needs to flow in order to generate profits and create gdp. Do they really think that with the high interest rate difference, they can lie comfortably and earn money for a lifetime?

It's no wonder that when these banks went out, they were so tricked that they had nowhere to go. This monopoly business has been in business for a long time, and people's thinking and crisis awareness will inevitably become weak.

Compared with the difficulty of purchasing various patents, Xiao Qi's process of purchasing smart chips and wireless chip products from Broadcom in the United States is very smooth.

In the future, Broadcom will be the most famous provider of wireless chip solutions in the world, and at least 60% of the high-end wireless chip market will be firmly controlled by them.

But now in 2006, Broadcom is still struggling to move forward, the only Apple iPhone that bought their smart chip. It's not on the market yet, so I don't know how it will work.

Because the use of smart chips in the entire mobile phone market is less than 1% of all mobile phones, people don't value whether the mobile phone has a wi-fi function.

As for wireless chips, that is not yet in mass production.

Yes.

The most important function of the smart chip is to allow the smartphone to connect to the network through wi-fi or bluetooth. Also known as mobile Internet access.

The wireless chip is to go one step further, it can become a network signal receiver by itself and directly receive network signals. So you don't have to be limited by the wi-fi LAN, you can really go online wherever you go.

After the iPhone next year, everyone will know how novel and dazzling and cool it will be to use mobile phones to surf the Internet. \u003cThe version came out, and the mobile Internet once again broke the limit. until then. Broadcom's wireless chips will really boom.

And waited until 2010, when Apple's ipad was born, people discovered it all of a sudden. The wireless chip can actually be applied to the tablet computer, so that the tablet computer can also access the Internet-this is equivalent to taking the computer to the Internet wherever you go, without using a network cable or connecting a battery. After connecting to the network, you want to browse the web and play online games , Contact friends to chat... Wait, whatever.

Why are tablets so popular?

Isn't it because it has the convenience and flexibility that traditional computers don't have?

And the root of this convenience and flexibility happens to be wireless Internet access!

so. Is this wireless chip not important? !

With the dual-line support of smartphones and tablet computers, Broadcom can be considered from booming to hot. Leading the tide of wireless chips.

Now the bcm4326 smart chip owned by Broadcom is exactly the smart chip used by Apple's iPhone, but Qiao Gang is very cautious and only sets the quantity of 10 million pieces per year, and the deadline is only two years, so that Broadcom dare not let go Then we will make great strides in the research and development of new technologies.

Xiao Qi was not worried about the future of wireless chips. After presenting the asset certificate issued by Citibank, he directly set an annual output of 30 million pieces of smart and wireless chips with Broadcom for a period of ten years.

For such a large order, Broadcom naturally made many concessions.

The first point is that they must guarantee that at least once every two years, the product will be updated, and the efficiency of the new wireless chip product provided to Xiao Qi will be more than 30% higher than the previous one.

Then there is their price, the price of the first batch of wi-fi smart chips is only set at US dollars per piece, and the wireless communication chip with 3g network needs to add a complex wireless network module, and the price is added per piece Up to 22 US dollars, the total cost is US dollars, and the price will increase by 6% every year thereafter.

To be honest, this price is a bit expensive. In 2012, some smart chips from some manufacturers only cost 30 yuan a piece, and the price of a wireless network module was only 170 to 80 yuan.

But who knows that Broadcom's wireless chip is the best? If you want to make the best product, you have to use the best parts. Unless Xiao Qi has his own excellent wireless chip, otherwise he will not save dozens of One hundred dollars, in exchange for a tablet computer with frequent failures.

Besides, this is when Broadcom's smart and wireless chips have not opened the market, and they already have preferential measures. If they come back in two years, the price will increase by another 20 to 30%, and it will not be surprising at all.

According to Xiao Qi's usual personality, just after the contract was signed, the first payment of 20 million US dollars was transferred to Broadcom's account, which made the Yankees marvel at Xiao Qi's speed and straightforwardness again.

Americans are actually very old-fashioned in doing business. Things like procrastinating payment for goods often happen. When you meet generous customers, everyone is naturally happy.

With such a pleasant transaction, Xiao Qi could easily get their consent for consigning thousands of finished products back to China for matching.

In fact, Broadcom's wireless chips are relatively mature at this time, but because there is no market demand, they have not yet been put into large-scale production.

Because there was no such product before, the matching work of the University of Electronic Science and Technology in Huaguo had to be debugged dozens of times and hundreds of times. If there is any problem, Broadcom will continue to provide technical support to ensure that Xiao Qi’s products It can truly achieve a breakthrough and realize the 3G wireless Internet access of the product.
