The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

In the blink of an eye, April 3th came.

The existing inventory of electronic products in the Deep Blue store has basically been cleared out.

Except for home appliances, all other products in the specialty store were discontinued. Hubert Joly and Otto Raff stocked up on goods before the shutdown, so that their specialty stores could have goods to sell.

Although they have stocked up a lot of goods at once, the demand in the market is not very big.

But it’s better to have something to sell than an empty store with nothing to sell.

During the Chinese New Year, Cao Mang and his family did not travel far, but chose to stay in Shenzhen to celebrate the New Year as a family. Cao Mang and Liu Qianqian returned to the capital on the third day of the new year. Liu's mother had no choice but to accept the fact that Cao Mang had three wives and four concubines. Now things It has already reached this point, and it will be useless for her to say anything.

Besides, Cao Mang was very kind to Liu Qianqian and she couldn't find any fault with him.

Since the discontinuation of Deep Blue Electronics products, Android phones equipped with NVIDIA and AMD chips have been selling like crazy.

Almost all low-end and mid-range products are occupied by Android phones, and the sales of fruits have also dropped a lot as a result.

YouTube has also launched a large number of naked-eye 3D TVs. YouTube has even raised the price to 299 US dollars per unit. The low price has caused people to buy crazy.

CEO's office.

At this time, Cao Mang was on the phone with Hubert Joly in the office.

"Cao, my inventory here has basically bottomed out. When will you launch new products?" Hubert Jolly said in a depressed tone.

"Mr. Hubert, don't wait for the bullet to fly for a while. According to the plan, we will launch new products in May. In the past two years, we have launched too many new products, and the market demand has also dropped significantly. Let the market and consumption first Please wait for a while before talking," Cao Mang said.

"But Android has been conquering the city. If this continues, the market share will be taken away." Hubert Joly said very unwillingly.

"Mr. Hubert, there is a problem with LG's naked-eye 3D technology. You can send someone to investigate. If you use LG's naked-eye 3D technology for more than 6 months, the user's vision will decline significantly." Cao Mang said.

"Cao, are you telling the truth?" Hubert Jolly asked in a tone of disbelief.

"You only need to arrange for institutions to conduct follow-up investigations on these users, but this matter must be investigated secretly." Cao Mang said.

"I know I will have my cronies to investigate," said Hubert Jolly.

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up the phone first." Cao Mang said.

"Okay," replied Hubert Jolly.

It's half past two in the afternoon.

Lu Bingwei and Li Yujing walked out of the elevator, pushing a trolley. The upper and lower floors of the trolley are filled with new products from Deep Blue Technology.

On the upper level, a gleaming assortment of mobile phones and tablets are carefully displayed on display racks.

On the lower floor are several smart speakers, which look very high-end and full of black technology.

"Mr. Cao." Lu Bingwei and Li Yujing greeted at the same time.

Then the two of them placed the products on the trolley one by one on Cao Mang's desk. These electronic products occupied Cao Mang's 3-meter-meter desk.

"Mr. Cao, this is the fourth-generation Deep Blue mobile phone. We have adjusted the screen to 5.5-inch 3K. In addition, we have also replaced it with new glass, a new type of glass mixed with graphene and silicon crystals. The strength of this glass is Three times that of the original glass, this glass was developed and produced by CSG A.

The camera uses the latest technology developed by the R&D department, which can hide the camera under the screen. There are still two cameras on the front, and the rear camera is still the same as the front.

The fuselage material is still graphene-based aluminum alloy material, but we have changed the manufacturing process to integrated casting. The new process greatly reduces manufacturing costs.

In terms of audio, we have increased the original two-channel sound to 4-channel sound. 4-channel sound can provide users with a better three-dimensional sense. In addition, we have also increased the number of microphones to 5, of which 5 are microphones. It is a directional microphone. The directional microphone can record sounds from more directions, so that users can record videos with surround sound effects.

Because the cost of the micro-water pump is not very high, we retain the water cooling system. Even if the mobile phone is running at full load, the temperature will still not exceed 40 degrees.

In terms of battery, we replaced the original graphene lithium battery with a graphene nano battery. Because the new chip is more integrated than before, more space is gained inside the mobile phone. The battery capacity of the fourth-generation Deep Blue mobile phone has increased from that of the third-generation The 4200 mAh is increased to 5000 mAh.

In terms of charging, we increased the power to 300W, wireless fast charging also increased from 66W to 150W, and supported 120W wireless charging equipment.

The biggest difference between the fourth generation Deep Blue mobile phone and the previous generation Deep Blue mobile phone is in the software. The system research and development department has added many AI functions to the system, such as the company's latest real-time voice translation function.

The system R&D department moved the model and database of the real-time voice call function to the local area, so that users can achieve real-time translation without being connected to the Internet during calls.

The second AI function of the new system is the search function. When the user encounters something of interest, the user only needs to long press the HOME button to activate the AI ​​search function from the system.

Users only need to circle the pictures or text they are interested in, and AI will analyze these photos or text, and then link to our search engine to give the answer.

In addition, the R&D department has also implanted two tools, Magic Eye and Magic Picture, into the new system. These two tools can perform some relatively simple AI processing with the support of Tianma A2's AIML core.

After users circle the content, they can adjust the video or picture through text or voice.

16GB加512GB深蓝4成本相对比上一代下降了17%，单台深蓝4制造成本只需要1744.66元，您看第四代深蓝3手机定价定多少？”卢兵韦问道。

"The price is to be determined. In a month or two, the Pegasus chip from a friend will be released. Let's see their pricing first. What we have to do now is to reserve supply." Cao Mang said.

Lu Bingwei then introduced other new products to Cao Mang, the second-generation Deep Blue Pocket and the third-generation Deep Blue MAX. The appearance of these two products has not changed much. The only difference is the use of new CPUs and under-screen cameras.

The new version of the smart speaker is now more than just a smart speaker. With the support of the powerful Tianma 2S, the new version of the smart speaker can also be used as a game console.

The powerful Tianma 2S allows users to run many games, but there is no way to support naked-eye 3D.

The new version of Deep Blue TV and Deep Blue projector are equipped with the second-generation Pegasus chip and have added gaming functions like smart speakers.

The new version of the tablet computer is also equipped with a new chip, and its functions are not much different from those of mobile phones, so Lu Bingwei skipped the product introduction. The most outstanding one is the new dark blue watch. The new dark blue watch adds many sensors and can accurately monitor blood oxygen, blood sugar, heart rate, body temperature and other indices. Once these data are abnormal, AI will provide health reminders to users through big data analysis.

If the user suffers from shock and faints, Deep Blue Watch will also contact the rescue center and report the user's physical condition.

The chip used by the Deep Blue Watch is a specially developed chip by Deep Blue Semiconductor. This chip has only one CPU and three ML cores. The surface display screen has also been replaced with a BOE OLED screen, and the battery capacity has increased from 3 mAh to 420 mAh. mA.

The battery life has been extended from the original 14 days to 21 days now, and the battery life can last for a week under normal use.

In addition, Deep Blue Watch also adds a wireless charging function. Of course, we are not talking about ordinary wireless charging here, but wireless charging of Deep Blue wireless charging equipment.

Deep Blue wireless charging equipment has also been updated. The distance of the second-generation charging equipment has been increased to a radius of 20 meters, the charging conversion efficiency has been increased to 85%, the power consumption has also been increased from the original 33W to 120W, and the number of wireless charging connections has been increased to 30 units. .

The new version of Deep Blue electronic products all have wireless charging functions. Most devices can be powered by wireless charging devices. Only devices such as air conditioners, electric heaters, and computers cannot use wireless charging.

at the same time.

Lao Luo posted a message on his Deep Blue Weibo.

[Nail Technology will release the Nut R3 mobile phone on March 20. This mobile phone is the mobile phone I am most satisfied with so far. The chip is a self-developed Pegasus architecture chip. The performance of this chip is twice that of Nvidia tiger6. 】

Tiger5 scored 74 points on Orion, which means that this chip scored 150 million points. Although 150 million points seems like a lot, it still cannot compare with Tianma 2, which scored 2 million points.

However, the score of 150 million points is enough for Lao Luo to crush other manufacturers.

"Lao Luo is so awesome that he actually developed a CPU with better performance than tiger5. This is the rhythm of the complete rise of domestic chips."

"I was discussing this matter with my friends two days ago. We discussed which company would be the first to come up with the Pegasus chip. We guessed it would be Rice or OPPO, but we didn't expect that Lao Luo would be the first to do so."

"I suddenly felt that the pace of electronic product updates was too fast and too fast, which made me a little dizzy. Today's chips are no longer what they used to be. In the past, the performance of chip updates increased by 10%-20% at most. Now the update It has grown exponentially, and I don’t even know which company’s product to choose. If I buy the wrong one, I will regret it so much that my intestines will turn blue.”

"Nowadays, the electronic product market is full of chaos. If you buy a few random products, you will definitely regret it. But one thing is for sure. You can't go wrong buying a dark blue one. The performance of dark blue is definitely the most powerful, and the dark blue one also holds the best value. .”

"I have a hunch that manufacturers such as Rice, VIVO and OPPO will launch their own Pegasus chips in the next two days. I advise everyone who wants to buy a mobile phone to wait and see first."

"It's better to decide which chip has better performance and is cheaper. Now there are no longer just three companies, namely Fruit, Qualcomm and MediaTek, as before. There are too many manufacturers that can develop chips now."

"No wonder Deep Blue stopped producing all electronic products early. It turns out that Mang Shen had anticipated this day."

"Lao Luo's chip seems to be very powerful, but it is still far behind Tianma 2."

Some netizens still see it very clearly. As chip development costs decrease, the entire market has become very chaotic.

Nowadays, R&D companies can develop a chip at a very low cost as long as they do not produce it. If the performance of the developed chip is not good, they can just develop a new chip.

As long as it can develop a hot-selling chip, the company will receive hundreds or even thousands in returns.

This has also made many large companies very cautious. Once they launch a failed product, they will suffer serious losses.

This is also the reason why companies such as rice, vivo and oppo are not in a hurry to launch new products.

Jingcheng Rice Company.

In front of the conference room is a wooden door with soft colors, and a nameplate with the words "R&D Department Conference Room No. 1" hangs on the door.

When you open the door, you will see a spacious and bright space. A steel lamp hangs in the center of the ceiling, as bright as a starry sky.

There are some simple and beautiful furniture placed in the room, and the floor is covered with high-quality carpets. When walking on it, your steps feel like you are stepping on the clouds.

A clear tactile interactive screen hangs on the wall nearby, tasked with displaying the meeting agenda and data.

The conference table is simple and comfortable in shape. It is filled with various electronic products and stationery, such as microphones for operating microphones, cup lids for fresh milk tea, writing pads, and silver-white laptops, etc., which makes people feel brand-new. And elegant technological atmosphere.

From the window of the conference room, you can see the scenery outside. In addition to the vehicles and pedestrians on the street, you can also see tall buildings in the distance. The clouds are passing overhead and the trees in the distance add a touch of natural scenery to the entire city. .

The atmosphere of the entire conference room is natural and harmonious, one that is elegant yet dynamic. The design of the hall environment not only enhances the comfort of participants, but also makes the communication at the meeting smoother and more interesting.

After the staff of the R&D department took their seats, they opened their laptops one after another.

“Three days ago you told me that the Thermal 1 you developed is definitely the most powerful chip on the market besides Tianma 2.

But just now Nail Technology Lao Luo posted a tweet on Deep Blue Weibo. They will launch a new mobile phone on the 20th of this month. This mobile phone uses their latest developed chip. According to Lao Luo’s description, this The performance of this chip is twice that of tiger5.

According to the current situation, the performance of their chip is about 1% higher than that of our The Paper 30.

What kind of company is Nail Technology? It was a company that was about to close down a year ago. They are far behind us in terms of strength.

But now they are able to develop a chip that is even more powerful than ours.

I believe that the treatment provided by the rice company is not lower than that of the nail company, but I am very disappointed with what you gave me. I don't care whether you work overtime 24 hours a day or whether you have room and board at the company.

Give me a new chip within a month. The performance of the new chip cannot be lower than that of Nail's chip.

You must know that other companies besides Nail will also launch their chips in the near future. If our chips cannot surpass them in performance, the company will not be able to release new products for a long time.

No products mean that the company has no way to make a profit, and no profit means that the company will suffer losses. Whether the company can continue to operate depends on your R&D department.

If your R&D department cannot produce results that satisfy me, then don't blame me, the chairman, for being rude. "Rebus said with a serious tone. (End of Chapter)
