Chapter 415 430: Large-scale hardware upgrade
"Cao, why did you choose Intel's CPU?" Bernie Ebbs asked curiously.

"Isn't it normal to choose whose chip is cheaper?" Cao Mang replied.

Bernie Albers probably guessed why Cao Mang wanted to buy Intel chips. Intel must have given Cao Mang a price he couldn't refuse.

He knew something about Intel's desire to invade the mobile market.

ASUS's zenfone2 advertisement is so fierce, if you can't see it, you are really blind.

"Cao, currently the ios system only supports the arm version. If you want to change to the x86 version, it will take some time on my side. I have to ask the technical department to know.

When do you plan to launch the new phone? " Bernie Alberts asked in a good voice.

To be honest, Bernie Alberts didn't really want to come up with the x86 version of ios, because if Intel enters the mobile market, it means that the competition in the chip market will become more intense.

This also means that the share of fruits that can be obtained is reduced.

But if they don't launch, the market share will be taken away by Android.

Ever since Bernie Alberts decided to transform Fruit into a platform provider, he has had no choice.

"It will probably be launched at the end of January or early February. We won't know the specific time until when." Cao Mang said.

Hearing this time, Bernie Ebbs sighed. Calculated in this way, it only takes more than two months. This time is a bit short for them, and the R&D department can still develop it if they bite their teeth.

"Cao, we will launch the x86 version of iOS as soon as possible." Bernie Albers replied.

"Then I will trouble you, Mr. Bernie. I have nothing to do. I will hang up first." Cao Mang hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

"Cao, our fruit also has cpu chips. I don't know if you are interested. The performance is much better than the Qualcomm 820, and the price is much cheaper than the Qualcomm 820. It must be better than Intel's chips." Bernie Ebbs asked.

"Mr. Bernie, Intel offers a price that I can't refuse. I will only use Intel chips for the next generation of mobile phones. Next time, I will give priority to fruit chips." Cao Mang replied.

Cao Mang had already guessed that Guoguo had released chips, but Intel gave them too much, unless Guoguo gave them the cpu for free.

"I don't know how much Intel's price is?" Bernie Ebbers asked curiously.

He was very curious about what kind of price Intel would offer to make Cao Mang refuse to buy fruit CPU chips.

"Mr. Bernie, I can't tell you the price. In short, it's a price I can't refuse." Cao Mang replied.

Hearing Cao Mang's answer, Bernie Ebbs was silent for a while. He had heard a little about Intel's large subsidy. Not surprisingly, the price given by Intel was very low.

It is even possible that Intel gave Deep Blue a free pass, but this is a good thing for them, Intel's CPU performance is much worse than their A10.

The next-generation iPhone will definitely beat Deep Blue in terms of performance.

"Then we can only work together next time." Bernie Albers said.

"It's nothing, I'll hang up first." After Cao Mang finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"Okay," Bernie Albers replied.

Bernie Albers found Shay Lester's phone number in his address book and called him.

The phone rang "Beep~Beep~Beep" five times and the other party answered the call.

"Boss." Shay Lester greeted.

"You contact Intel right away and ask them for chip-related information, and develop the x86 version of ios as soon as possible. Is there any problem in developing it within two months?" Bernie Ebbs asked.

"Two months should be no problem." Shay Lester replied.

The reason why Android can run on x86 is because Android is developed based on Linux.

Similarly, it is very simple for ios to run on x86, because the ios system is developed based on Unix, and both are developed based on the x86 architecture.

Both arm and x86 are chips developed based on binary system, and the transition to other platforms is still very simple.

Shay Lester rubbed his temples and dialed another number in the address book.

Not long after, Janick Wald knocked on the office door.

"Come in," said Bernie Albers.

Janick Wald pulls out a chair and sits across from Bernie Ebbers when he enters.

"Boss." Janick Wald greeted.

"When will A10fusion and A10X Samsung deliver?" Bernie Ebbers asked.

A10fusionr is actually an advanced version of A10. This CPU was launched by Bernie Ebbers for friends. The performance of these two CPUs is slightly better than the A7 of iPhone10.

A10X can be said to be an evolved version of A10. Whether it is a CPU or a GPU, the performance of this chip is about 25% better than the former. This chip is mainly used by independent brands.

"Samsung will deliver on December 12th." Janick Wald replied.

"I see, you go to work first." Bernie Alberts said.

After Janick Wald left, Bernie Ebbers called Jonathan Ive over to ask about the next generation.

"Jonathan, how is the development of iPhone 8?" Bernie Albers asked after Jonathan Ive sat down.

"Boss, the iPhone 8 has been developed. As long as the CPU arrives, trial production can be carried out, and the iPhone 8 adopts it," Jonathan Ivy Barabara began to introduce.

In order to seize more markets, Jonathan Ivey made a large-scale upgrade to the iPhone 8 hardware.

CPU他们最新研发的A10X6核CPU，A10和A10fusion都是四核的，内存DDR3升级到最新的DDR4，

The memory capacity of the standard version has been upgraded from the original 3G to 4G memory, and the storage memory capacity has been upgraded from 32G to 64G.

The original storage memory uses NAND chips and is now changed to UFS 2.0.

The front camera still uses 1200 million pixels, the rear camera has been upgraded to 2400 million pixels, and the module still uses a three-camera module.

The screen resolution has been upgraded from the 4.7-inch 1Kips screen of the previous generation to the 6.2-inch 2K BOE Phoenix screen.

The battery was changed just two days ago, from the original 2500 mAh to 3500 mAh. The battery capacity was upgraded because they used graphene batteries.

Bernie Albers is not like Cook, who only upgrades a little bit at a time.

He knew that if he continued to use Cook's toothpaste-squeezing approach, the next generation iPhone would not be competitive. After all, they had already licensed iOS to other rivals.

疯狂堆料导致iPhone8成本大幅度提升，预算部评估iPhone8的成本达到421美刀，比iPhone7的293高了128美刀。

In order to ensure profits, Bernie Alberts can only increase the retail price of the iPhone 8 to $899.

The iPhone 8 retails for $7 more than the iPhone 230.

2015:11 am on May 17, 10.

Lu Xiaolei brought a man to Cao Mang's office.

The man's height is about the same as Lu Xiaolei's, and he should be around 1 meters tall by visual inspection. The man's oval face looks very simple and honest, and his dark skin makes him look like a migrant worker.

Cao Mang saw the two of them walking out of the desk.

"Mr. Cao, this is Mr. Luo Yande." Lu Xiaolei introduced.

"Hello, Manager Luo." Cao Mang stretched out his hand and said.

"Mr. Cao, hello." Luo Yande shook hands with Cao Mang with a "smile".

Luo Yande was introduced by Comrade Xiao Wang. Luo Yande is a senior project manager of Qianda Group and has been in charge of several Wanda Plaza projects.

This time, Comrade Xiao Wang not only borrowed Luo Yande alone, but also the entire project team.

After all, this project is not a small project like Cao Mang's renovation of a villa. Such a large project cannot be completed by one person. It cost Comrade Xiao Wang 300 million soft sister coins to rent this group.

Although Comrade Xiao Wang is the prince of Qianda, it is impossible to work for Cao Mang for free on such a large project.

Then Cao Mang went back to the front of the desk, took out the blueprint from the desk, and spread the blueprint on his desk.

"Manager Luo, this land is right behind the industrial park. I plan to build four office buildings here. How to build gardens for the office buildings and how to do it? You can give me two or three plans here.

The office building is poured with steel structure and cement, helping me to complete the office building in the fastest time. " Cao Mang pointed to the blue frame on the first drawing and said.

Luo Yande glanced at the parameters on the drawing and said, "No problem."

Cao Mang only made one request, and there is a lot of room to play in it, which is still very simple for him.

Then Cao Mang took away the first drawing and placed the second drawing on top.

"This piece of land has a total of [-] mu. I want to build an e-sports stadium here, which is the venue for e-sports competitions. It is estimated that the land will be [-] mu, and then I will build a shopping plaza next to it.

It would be best to combine the two, and the area is expected to be about two hundred acres.

I want to build a residential community with the remaining 250 acres, of which [-] acres will be used to build small terraced buildings, and the remaining [-] acres will be used to build high-rise buildings. "Cao Mang said.

Luo Yande pondered for a while and then said: "Mr. Cao, do you mean e-sports venues like League of Legends and Dota?"

"I didn't expect Luo Yande to know about League of Legends and Dota, which are venues for such competitions. I want to combine business and e-sports halls together to open the largest integrated e-sports business center in Asia." Cao Mang said.

"I also play games when I'm free. Recently, I've been playing Genesis when I'm free. Deep Blue Genesis is much more fun than League of Legends. I know what to do with this business center." Luo Yande laughed.

"Manager Luo, when this project is completed, I will get you a complete set of skins." Cao Mang said with a smile.

Cao Mang didn't expect that the other party was also playing Genesis, but this was a normal thing. In his previous life, there was a 60-year-old man who broadcast Yasuo live.

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Cao here first." Luo Yande said with a smile.

"You're welcome, as long as Manager Luo quickly helps me implement this matter." Cao Mang said with a wave of his hand.

"Mr. Cao, I will take this drawing back first. It will take about three months for the plan to come out. I will contact you as soon as possible after the plan comes out." Luo Yande said slightly.

"No problem." Cao Mang nodded.

Luo Yande rolled up the drawings on the table and put them into the roll where the drawings were stored.

After Cao Mang sent him to the elevator entrance, Luo Yande took the elevator and left.

After returning to his seat, Cao Mang sent the outline of Cyclonus to Tommy, asking him to find someone to fill in the plot.

Originally, Cao Mang wanted to play the game of power and profit.

It's just that this TV series has offended too many people. If it is filmed, it may not be released, but this TV series is definitely a magical drama.

After sending out the outline, Cao Mang continued to write a new script outline. The TV series he wrote this time was County Party Committee Courtyard, which was also a very good TV series.

When Cao Mang opened the document and entered the title, Deep Blue Chat rang.

"Drip~drip~drip"

[Lu Xiaolei: Mr. Cao, a lady named Fei Di is looking for you. 】

Cao Mang was taken aback when he saw Lu Xiaolei's text message, he didn't expect Fei Di to come over.

[Crazy Life: Just ask her to come up in the elevator. 】

After a while, the elevator bell rang. After the elevator door opened, Feidi poked her head out. She looked around and saw Cao Mang sitting at the desk.

Fei Di walked out of the elevator with a "hee hee" smile.

Then she happily ran to Cao Mang's side.

Fei Di sat down on Cao Mang's lap, with her arms around Cao Mang's neck, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons happily.

"Has my husband missed me recently?" Fei Di asked with a smile.

"Why didn't you tell me when you came here?" Cao Mang pinched her Qiong's nose and asked.

"I came here this time to interview for a role in Ode to Joy. Didn't I want to give you a surprise." Fei Di said with a smile after kissing Cao Mang.

"What role are you interviewing for?" Cao Mang asked, holding her waist.

I have to say that the little man's waist is weak and boneless, and it feels very comfortable to hug.

"I came to interview for the role of Qiu Yingying." Fei Di replied.

"Did the interview succeed?" Cao Mang asked again.

Cao Mang remembered that this role was played by an actor named Yang Zi, but he didn't know if she would play it after the Butterfly Effect, and he didn't tell Cao Mang about Fei Di's interview.

The crew would definitely not give priority to Fei Di. Cao Mang had given Tommy an order to die. Without his authorization, the crew would not allow any unofficial actors to appear.

Relevant records must be kept for each actor interview.

If someone reports the internal operations of Deep Blue Media, then he will hold the relevant personnel accountable.

Cao Mang did this firstly to put an end to the unspoken rules of actors in the director team, and secondly to choose the most suitable roles for each drama, so that a good work can be made.

No matter how old you are, if you don't fit the role, you won't be able to get a role in Deep Blue Media.

This also caused a large number of young actors to be eliminated by the director team, and many actors did not dare to accept even if they were charged with money, because the casting process was all recorded.

If Cao Mang feels that his hips are stretched after the filming, he will definitely check the casting records.

At that time, they can only go in and step on the sewing machine with a certain little fresh meat.

"The director team just asked me to go back and wait for news." Fei Di pouted and said with an unhappy face.

"If you are not selected by the director team, it is very likely that your acting skills are not good, or that you are not suitable for this role. I will not help you through the back door.

If you want to get a role, you have to work hard on your own. If you don't have the strength, you will be eliminated by this industry sooner or later.

If you want to make money, then I will find you another job. There are many ways to make money. There is no need to be an actor to make money. "Cao Mang said.

"I know." Feidi nodded and replied.

She knew that Cao Mang did this for her own good. If she was short of money, she believed that if she asked Cao Mang for it, Cao Mang would definitely give it to her.
