The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

Chapter 508 523: Vomiting blood
Jingcheng Rice Company.

Because he had just obtained a new product from Deep Blue Technology, Rebus convened a meeting with the company's R&D department to develop new products for the next generation of rice.

"Mr. Lei, even Fruit's a10fusion only supports up to 32MP cameras. I don't think it is necessary for our next generation machine to use a deep blue camera. Not to mention that the deep blue camera is expensive, and even if we use it, it will not be able to perform perfectly. .

If we want perfect performance, we have to purchase Deep Blue ISP chips. The combined cost of the two is already as high as 1000 yuan, which invisibly increases the cost. "Situ Xu, director of rice mobile phone research and development department, said.

"We can't always make low-end mobile phones. How much profit can low-end mobile phones bring us? If we keep making low-end mobile phones, Rice will fall into a vicious cycle. If we want to get more profits, we must Launch high-end phones," Rebus said.

From 2011 to 2016, Xiaomi's fifth-generation mobile phones were mainly affordable, but the consequences of affordable prices were low profits or even losses. Rebus felt that spending five years to cultivate the market was enough. If rice phones continue to be like this There will never be a day of recovery if this goes on.

In fact, the predecessor Rebus also operated in this way. The price of rice phones has increased from 6 to 2499 since rice [-], and then the price will rise every year.

Xiaomi's profits have also grown crazily as the prices of rice phones have increased. However, Rebus has always insisted that their phones only have a 5% profit. Only die-hard fans of rice believe this nonsense. After rice 5, the price of rice phones will increase every year. They are all very big.

As soon as Rebus finished speaking, a person in the conference room suddenly burst into disdain about the national quintessence.

At this time, everyone in the conference room turned their attention to Xu Ligong, who was speaking out about the quintessence of the Chinese nation.

"Old Xu, what happened?" Rebus asked.

Xu Ligong looked at Rebus with an embarrassed look on his face. He said that the quintessence of Chinese culture was because he was distracted by playing with his mobile phone during the meeting. The boss summoned him for a meeting and he still played with his mobile phone. This was not giving the boss face.

"Mr. Lei, I was distracted and looked at my phone just now. I promise I won't do it again in the future." Xu Ligong said with an embarrassed look.

"What information surprised you so much?" Rebus asked curiously.

Xu Ligong has been with him for so many years. It's okay to be distracted during a meeting, as long as it doesn't affect the meeting.

It's just that he was curious about what happened that made Xu Ligong verbally abuse the national essence in the conference room.

"The news that BYD announced on the Internet that it is selling its factory is false news. Deep Blue Technology also announced that it will stop building fully automatic production line OEM factories, and they acquired Foxconn's factory for US$170 billion. Why does BYD want to sell the factory? Deep Blue wants to build OEM factories." The factory is just a bureau, but Guo Taiming was tricked by Deep Blue Technology this time." Xu Ligong said.

"Fuck~"

"Fuck~"

"Fuck~"

After everyone in the conference room heard the news, they all spoke highly of the national quintessence.

"I remember that Foxconn's factory valuation is at least US$350 billion, right?" Situ Xu asked.

"Yes, but Guo Taiming was afraid that after Deep Blue Technology's fully automated foundry was launched, their factory would be unable to compete with Deep Blue Technology and would suffer losses, so he sold it to a fund called Crusader Fund for 169 billion. Unexpectedly This fund was later sold to Deep Blue Technology for US$170 billion.

Therefore, netizens feel that it has been a trap since Deep Blue Technology announced its investment in building a fully automatic factory. There are wild rumors that BYD is selling the factory just to cooperate with Deep Blue's strategy.

In order to reduce costs, the fruit side purchased the automatic production line of Deep Blue Technology and also cooperated with Deep Blue in this round.

Otherwise, Guo Taiming would not have sold the factory at such a huge loss. "Xu Ligong explained.

"It seems that Guo Taiming was really tricked by Deep Blue Technology this time." Rebus said with a smile.

Rebus knew that Guo Taiming's losses this time were more than 160 billion US dollars. Losing Foxconn Guo Taiming was equivalent to cutting off his own cash milk factory. In the future, it would be very difficult for Guo Taiming to rise again.

"Mr. Lei, I think this matter is not as simple as we thought. Deep Blue Technology must have a way to solve the chip problem, otherwise they couldn't have bought Foxconn just to manufacture mobile phones for others," Situ Xu said.

Situ Xu's words also caused everyone to fall into silence. Everyone felt that this was indeed a possibility.

"Whether Deep Blue Technology is going to return or not, it has nothing to do with us. High-end products will definitely be made. Your R&D department should think carefully about how to design them. Let's end today's meeting here." Rebus said.

Wanwan the president’s office at Hon Hai Precision Headquarters.

The office is decorated with antique wooden furniture. The entire office cost Guo Taiming a lot of money. At this time, Guo Taiming was sitting on a chair checking the stock market. Since Guo Taiming announced the transformation into a front-end brand, the stock price of Hon Hai Precision is higher than before. 20% higher.

The rise in stock prices is undoubtedly a great thing for Guo Taiming.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Guo Taiming looked at the monitor blankly and said.

Because in just a few seconds, Hon Hai Precision's stock price fell by 40%. This drop has never been seen since the establishment of Hon Hai Precision.

Guo Taiming immediately picked up the landline and called his assistant Kang Yanwei.

"Kang Yanwei, why did our company's stock price fall so much?" Guo Taiming asked anxiously.

"Mr. Guo, we were deceived by Deep Blue Technology." Kang Yanwei said without tears.

"What exactly is going on?" Guo Taiming asked with a frown.

"Mr. Guo, this is what happened." Kang Yanwei briefly told Guo Taiming the news he had just received.

"Pfft~"

Guo Taiming spurted a mouthful of old blood onto the monitor and passed out in the office.

He never thought that Deep Blue Technology would use this method to deceive them, and he even sold his foundation at a low price just because of this matter.

The sale of Foxconn at a low price will follow Guo Taiming and become a stain that he cannot erase for the rest of his life.

He himself will become the biggest laughing stock in the IT industry because of this incident.

This also caused him to become so angry that a mouthful of blood spurted onto the monitor.

at the same time.

Office of the President of Deep Blue Technology Entrepreneurship Park.

Xu Honglie, who had been on a business trip, finally returned to Shenlan Technology Entrepreneurship Park. After returning to Shenzhen City, he immediately ran to Cao Mang's office to report on his work. When Cao Mang saw him coming back, he went to the tea table to make tea and chat with him slowly.

"Have you come back so quickly to get the taxi companies, battery replacement plants and charging piles in various places?" Cao Mang asked Xu Honglie as he poured tea.

"Mr. Cao, we have now secured 15 first-tier cities and 23 second-tier cities. All power swap plants have basically been deployed, charging piles have been installed in various places, and the company's 30 electric vehicles have been distributed. Arrived in various cities.

Due to confidentiality reasons, we have not yet recruited drivers. As long as we recruit drivers, we can go online directly. "Xu Honglie said.

"After including subsidies, how much money does Deep Blue Car Rental have to invest in buying a car?" Cao Mang asked after taking a sip from his tea cup. "The subsidies in first- and second-tier cities are different. On average, each car can get a subsidy of 7," Xu Honglie replied.

It has been said before that the state will subsidize the purchase price of 5.5 new energy vehicles. In addition to the national subsidy, each city can also receive a subsidy. The average subsidy received from the two subsidies is [-] per vehicle.

In other words, the cost of purchasing a Deepblue car from Deep Blue Car Rental is only 10 yuan.

As for the subsidy price of charging piles in different places, they are all calculated on a per kilowatt basis. The subsidy price per kilowatt is 500 to 600. The cost of a 300 kilowatt charging pile is only 17000 yuan. The cost of installing a charging pile is absolutely It will not exceed 5000 yuan.

In other words, Deep Blue Technology does not need to spend any money at all to deploy charging piles across the country.

As for the cost of those 30 electric vehicles, it is probably over 300 billion.

The only cost now is the parking fee. Because these cars are not yet on the road, they can only be parked in the parking lot. However, the parking fees add up and are very scary.

Calculated based on the cost of 15 yuan per electric car per day, the cost of parking these cars for one day is 450 million yuan.

Deep Blue Technology has to pay a huge parking fee every day it is parked. Of course, this amount of money is only a drop in the bucket for Deep Blue. So far, it has spent 7000 million in parking fees. The accumulation of this money is still very scary.

The road test of Deep Blue Car is expected to be completed around the 28th, which means it will be on the road in three days.

However, the global pre-sale date of Deep Blue Cars is set on August 8st, which means that we have to wait for another five days. The parking fee for five days will be 1 million yuan. This is also the zero inventory operation that many companies recommend. reason.

This is why it was previously said that Micron was facing bankruptcy due to high storage fees for unsalable products.

The storage environment of chips is much more demanding than the storage environment of cars. Storage chips must use professional chip storage equipment.

Although the price of these storage devices is not high, memory is a high-speed circulation product, so Micron has not invested much in storage, which also resulted in them having to rent other people's equipment.

It is cheaper than building your own logistics system and renting someone else's. However, if the product is unsaleable, the cost of using your own logistics system is much lower, but they have never thought that the product will be unsaleable.

It is for this reason that Micron needs to spend a lot of money on storage. Micron spends tens of millions on chip storage every day.

In the end, Micron had no choice but to learn from Cook to bury these chips in place.

Survive with a broken arm to ensure that Magnesium can continue to survive.

"You can start recruiting external drivers. All Deep Blue cars will be on the road on August 8st on time." Cao Mang said.

"Okay, Mr. Cao." Xu Honglie said after putting down his tea cup.

"Full-time taxi drivers must pay five social insurances and one fund for them. All benefits are provided in accordance with the benefits of the Deep Blue Group. The driver's service attitude must be improved. I don't want to see relevant negative news online. Please let the responsible persons in each place Tell these drivers.

If it is a customer's problem, the company will definitely support them. If it is their problem, then let them go. The company provides them with such good benefits, not to let them ruin the reputation of the Deep Blue Group. "Han Chen picked up the teapot and poured tea for Xu Honglie and said.

"It's nothing, just go back and rest. You are tired after running for a few months. You will be busy in a few days." Cao Mang said.

"Okay, Mr. Cao, I'll go back and rest first." Xu Honglie nodded.

During this time, he was either on a plane or in a car. If it weren't for Deep Blue's strong human resources, he wouldn't have been able to build the company in such a short period of time.

Today, Deep Blue Human Resources has become a national human resources company with the support of Deep Blue Group.

According to statistics, 5 out of every 1 people looking for a job uses the Deep Blue Human Resources platform, which means that Deep Blue Human Resources has occupied 20% of the national market. This is all thanks to Cao Mang's ability to lend unlimited money to Deep Blue Human Resources.

If the group hadn't lent unlimited interest-free money to Deep Blue Human Resources, Deep Blue Human Resources wouldn't have been able to develop so fast.

America February 2016, 7.

Fruit Headquarters.

After Bernie Albers learned that Deep Blue had successfully taken over Foxconn, he immediately called Cao Mang to congratulate him.

"Thank you, Mr. Bernie. Mr. Bernie must have called for other matters." Cao Mang asked with a smile.

"Cao, I hope Deep Blue Seiko can continue to manufacture mobile phones for Hephaestus." Bernie Albers said.

"The OEM mobile phone matter is not a big problem. Just let them contact Deep Blue Seiko directly." Cao Mang said.

"Price-wise?" asked Bernie Albers.

"Mr. Bernie, the price may be a little more expensive than before. Because we provide workers with a substantial treatment, I can guarantee that the quality is much better than before." Cao Mang replied.

In fact, the amount of OEM work Hephaestus needs is not large. He has asked the original fruit factory to OEM for Hephaestus. However, the production capacity of Fruit's own factory is average. If he wants to get more markets, he has to find Cao. Mang OEM.

"No problem," Bernie Albers replied.

Although Hephaestus is a brand owned by Fruit, the financials of the two are calculated independently.

And even if Deep Blue Seiko increases the price, the OEM fee is still cheaper than their own factory.

Micron headquarters in Boise, Idaho.

"You mean SMIC is interested in taking over our packaging plant?" Sanjay Melotra said excitedly.

Because she couldn't see Cao Mang, Bertrand Bunsen took a plane to Shanghai that afternoon.

Bertrand Bunsen also met Zhou Zixue very smoothly.

Zhou Zixue was also very surprised when he learned that Micron was going to sell the packaging factory to them. However, he was not very satisfied with the price offered by Bertrand Bunsen. The price Bertrand Bunsen offered to Zhou Zixue It's $7 million.

This price is far higher than the US$5 million sold to Deep Blue Technology by [-] million US dollars.

Of course, Zhou Zixue is not a fool. He naturally knows that the purpose of Micron's doing this is to protect himself.

So he offered Bertrand Bunsen $4 million after hanging him up for two days.

"Boss, they are only willing to pay 4 million US dollars." Bertrand Bunsen said.

"Talk with them and try to get a higher price. As long as we survive next year, we will be fine." Sanjay Melotra sighed.

"Okay, boss." Bertrand Bunsen said.
