Chapter 545 Crazy purchasing, order liquidation

 Admittedly, from some aspects, Godson may be successful.

This is because certain military and aerospace fields in the Xia Kingdom have already adopted Loongson chips instead of Intel or AMD chips.

But on the other hand, Loongson's success is not absolute.

Because in many fields, Loongson still cannot replace the status of overseas semiconductor chips.

Therefore, under this premise, the success of Changtian Technology's Pangu series of chips is even more valuable.

Chen Xiao said with a smile: "There is nothing we can do here. If the negotiations between Shenchuan and Intel, which are waiting for the use of chips, have not been implemented, how could we choose to produce chips."

Chen Xiao's casual description surprised Li Huaibin even more.

Li Huaibin said: "I got relevant information about the Pangu chip from the on-site press conference, but the data is still not detailed enough."

"If it's convenient for you, you can send me the relevant parameters of the Pangu chip."

Chen Xiao said with great certainty: "This is no problem at all. We still remember that we can have further cooperation with the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences in the field of chips."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao immediately asked the chip laboratory to send the relevant parameters of the Pangu chip to Xia Institute of Computer Science, Academy of Sciences.

The Pangu chip is just a seed.

For seeds to grow into towering trees, more people must participate.

In particular, the Xia Academy of Sciences has put forward some suggestions and opinions on chips, which company is more conducive to the update and next-step research and development of Pangu chips.

Chen Xiao said to Wang Xiang: "You'd better send someone to Yanjiang Semiconductor Company to keep an eye on it."

"The only thing I'm worried about now is mass production."

Shenzhou held a press conference, which was expected by Chen Xiao.

But if the production of chips does not keep up, this will put a lot of pressure on Shenship.

After all, many users see that there are domestically produced dual-core chips, and their performance is no weaker than Intel's most powerful commercial chips, so they are likely to change their purchase plans.

Not only will they give up buying computers from other brands such as Dell and Lianxiang, but they will also give up buying the older batch of Shenchuan T1 series computers.

They will put their purchase plans on the Shenchuan T1 Jiaolong series.

If the Shenchuan Jiaolong series cannot be delivered to consumers during the patient waiting period, consumers' emotions will change from eager to buy to extremely bored.

This change of mood is not something Chen Xiao imagined at will, but is supported by a large amount of data in the Shanghai stock market.

For example, Xiaomi's mobile phones were very cost-effective, and you were recognized and welcomed by consumers.

However, Xiaomi engages in hunger marketing due to insufficient production.

This has resulted in a large number of users who are eager to buy Xiaomi mobile phones still unable to buy one after countless rushes.

It's okay to grab it once, but if you still can't satisfy your desire to buy a phone after grabbing it two or three times, then consumers will definitely feel angry towards Xiaomi.

This is also very harmful to the product brand.

Later, Xiaomi also realized the seriousness of this problem - hunger marketing led to the loss of a large number of potential users.

Therefore, in Xiaomi’s later sales strategy, it gradually replaced single-channel hunger marketing with advance reservation and multi-channel sales.

This gradually restored some reputation.

This principle also applies to the Pangu chips of Shenchuan and Changtian Technology.

Chen Xiao now wants Wang Xiang to keep an eye on Yanjiang Semiconductor in the Shanghai stock market, hoping that Yanjiang Semiconductor can mass-produce chips as soon as possible to meet market demand.

Zhang Jing and Wu Jun have not yet realized the importance of mass production.

But on the second day, the sales at the Shenzhou store in Shenzhen City were enough to prove that Chen Xiao's judgment was correct.

The last time the Shenzhou Ship got ten Pangu No. 2 chips and 20 Pangu No. 1 chips.

In addition, during this period, Yanjiang Semiconductor Company also had chips shipped from the factory.

Therefore, the total number of Pangu series chips in the hands of Shenchuan has reached 300.

After getting these 300 pieces, Shenchuan immediately assembled 300 Jiaolong series computers.

These 300 computers were not sold outside the country. They were all sold at the Huaqiang Beishen Ship Store in Shenzhen.

The Shenchuan sales store opened for business at 8 a.m., and in less than 10 minutes, 300 Jiaolong series computers were sold out by various media and people in the computer industry.

Ordinary consumers can't even buy one.

This made ordinary consumers who queued up to buy and some friends from the media who did not buy it unhappy.

Especially those ordinary consumers.

After watching the Shenchuan press conference, everyone was attracted by the powerful performance of domestic chips, so when buying computers, they would put the Shenchuan Jiaolong series on their purchase list.

These consumers are also real potential customers.

They queued up at the Shenchuan Sales Center in Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen City early in the morning, hoping to buy a computer equipped with Pangu's domestic chips.

Unexpectedly, after queuing for more than half an hour, they entered the store and were told that all the Jiaolong series computers had been sold.

Consumers questioned the salesperson unwillingly.

"Why can reporters buy it when they come to buy it? When we come to buy it, we say it is sold out. Is there a conspiracy in this?"

"That's right!" Another consumer said: "I came to line up at 7:30 this morning. I think I was relatively early, but I didn't buy it. Is it the Pangu mentioned in the Shenchuan press conference?

The chip doesn’t exist?”

"That's why you hide your products because you are afraid that when we get the real product, its performance will not be as good as what you advertised at the press conference."

Facing consumer doubts.

Of course, the Shenchuan sales staff who have been well-trained and experienced in many battles can only correct their attitude and explain well.

"This gentleman is really sorry! Due to chip production, our inventory quantity is really limited!"

"We have absolutely no reason not to sell powerful computers. If sir, you really need the Jiaolong series, you can leave a phone number first. After our fire comes back, we will contact you as soon as possible!"

In fact, even Shenchuan's gold medal sales staff did not expect that the Jiaolong series of computers would be so popular with ordinary users.

They originally thought that the hundreds of Jiaolong series computers they sold were just samples for exhibitions.

Who would have thought that they would be swept away.

The salesperson's explanation did not seem to be recognized by consumers.

Customers complained and said: "We should tell you early if the production is not enough, which makes us queue here for such a long time."

"Pangu chips are a new thing, and we all understand that there are some problems with mass production at present, but we want to know a definite answer, when will they be available in stock?"

"Well, don't talk nonsense to me. Do you charge a deposit now? How much of a deposit? Otherwise, I will give you the deposit and you will give me a clear answer. When can I get the chip?"

This statement also put the sales staff in a bit of trouble.

Because the salesperson doesn’t know when the chip will be delivered to Shenship.

So the salesperson could only laugh awkwardly and said: "We really don't have any more news here, I hope you can understand."

This kind of reply makes consumers a little impatient.

If there is an exact waiting time, then everyone can wait patiently.

But there is no exact waiting time, so everyone has no hope here.

This feeling is really uncomfortable.

Some impatient customers even started to complain and lose their temper.

The news reached Wu Jun.

Wu Jun was quite surprised.

He also didn't expect that the sales volume of the Jiaolong series of computers would be so terrifying.

After all, Pangu Chip is a domestic chip. Wu Jun is still thinking, even if he has demonstrated the powerful performance of Pangu Chip to consumers, will consumers have any doubts about domestic chips?

This is because domestic chips have never been tested by the market, and computers are not cheap products. They cost four to five thousand or even six to seven thousand yuan.

According to Wu Jun’s expectations.

Everyone is watching the excitement, and there are only a few users who are really willing to take action and buy computers equipped with domestic chips.

Rather than spending a lot of money to try new things, it is better to buy products with stable performance such as Intel or AMD.

Now it seems that this doubt does not exist.

Wu Jun quickly called the production department to ask what the production situation was like.

The person in charge of the production department told Wu Jun clearly.

For Jiaolong series computers, all the raw materials are ready, and even the components of the chassis and motherboard have been installed. They just wait for the chips to be available, install them, and then they can be sold out of the factory.

After all these answers, Wu Jun also took a deep breath.

There was really nothing he could do about the chip problem.

We can only wait for mass production by Yanjiang Semiconductor Company.

But this also illustrates a problem.

It’s not that Xia people don’t believe in domestic brands, but they don’t believe in inferior domestic brands.

When the performance of your domestically produced chips is powerful enough and the company behind it is reliable enough, it will definitely be favored by consumers.

Wu Jun was a little worried.

Chen Xiao felt a little helpless.

Yesterday, Chen Xiao just sent the relevant performance of Pangu chip to Xia Guo Academy of Sciences.

Today Chen Xiao received a reply from Li Huaibin.

Li Huaibin personally called Chen Xiao, and the content of the conversation was very simple - give him an order.

It is not that Xia Guo Academy of Sciences has an order, but Xia Guo Academy of Sciences, as a middleman, hopes to facilitate the relevant departments or institutions of Xia Guo to negotiate chip orders with Changtian Technology.

These departments and institutions involve Xia State's military scientific research, aerospace and other fields.

The total number of orders, that is, the total number of Changtian Technology Pangu chips required by these institutions and departments, has reached 50,000.

The number of matching motherboards has also reached 50,000 pieces.

How could Chen Xiao not be surprised when he received this news.

Moreover, Li Huaibin said seriously: "This batch of orders for chips and motherboards is only the first batch. If Changtian Technology can coordinate and complete this batch of orders as soon as possible, there will be a second batch later.

3 batches and so on.”

"The three batches of orders should be completed within three months."

"The quantity of subsequent batches will be far greater than the quantity of the first batch."

"I estimate that the total number will not be less than 200,000."

"If the chip performs well, I believe 200,000 is just the beginning."

"After all, in the military, hundreds of thousands of computers may have to be replaced with domestic chips."

"There are also a large number of national-level scientific research institutions, and the number of computers is not a small number."

Li Huaibin said: "Just last year, our order for Godson from the Chinese Academy of Sciences was 100,000 pieces."

"I'm not trying to belittle myself, but the performance of Loongson is far behind mid- to low-end products from Intel and AMD."

"Mr. Chen, you are not in the industry, so you don't know the serious shortage of cores in relevant departments and institutions in our country!"

"These institutions are basically classified departments and can only use domestic chips, but our Loongson cannot meet their requirements, so this demand has been suppressed."

"Yesterday I was in Yanjing and had in-depth conversations with people from related industries and industries."

"They saw some of the performance of Pangu chips and very much hope that Pangu chips can be used in the country's confidential high-end scientific research and military fields."

Li Huaibin continued: "This batch of orders can be signed, but there are a few things I need to explain to you."

"The first one is that no backdoor is allowed in all chip products. Even if there is a backdoor, it must be controlled by the relevant institutions and departments."

"The second is that Changtian Technology needs to send the Pangu chip in advance. They conduct some tests, mainly safety tests, because they also believe that the performance of the Pangu chip is far stronger than that of Loongson."

"As long as the safety performance passes, then more than 90% of this batch of orders will be fine."

"The third requirement is that all order agreements must be kept confidential and cannot even be publicized to the outside world. This is discipline!"

Chen Xiao certainly knows that this is discipline, and his only worry is whether mass production can keep up.

Li Huaibin added: "Mr. Chen, if it's inconvenient for you, I can bring them over to sign a contract with you."

"If Changtian Technology can specifically design highly secure Pangu chips for these highly sensitive departments and institutions, and distinguish these security chips from commercial chips, then Changtian Technology will have more

order!"

Chen Xiao completely believed what Li Huaibin said.

He even simply calculated the profit of this batch of orders.

If the design cost is not calculated, only the production cost is calculated.

The cost of the Pangu 2 chip is about 400 yuan.

Calculated based on the current retail price of 1,000 yuan, the total profit that Yanjiang Semiconductor Company and Changtian Technology can get is 600 yuan.

But Changtian Technology not only owns 51% of the shares of Yanjiang Semiconductor Company, but also has the sole right to design and sell chips. Therefore, the final profit that Changtian Technology can get is about 400 yuan.

Calculated based on three batches of orders totaling 200,000 pieces, the profit that Changtian Technology can earn is 80 million.

This does not include the profit that the motherboard can earn.

Chen Xiao did not reply to Li Huaibin immediately but said: "Director Li, let's consider this issue again and I will get back to you as soon as possible."

After Chen Xiao hung up the phone, he immediately called Zhang Jing.

Zhang Jing had a headache, and said with pain and happiness: "Wu Jun called me just now. He placed an additional order for 100,000 chips. Adding the 30,000 chips some time ago, it will be 130,000 chips. Now tell me that there are 200,000 chips."

With an order of 10,000 pieces... Mr. Chen’s Yanjiang Semiconductor Company has worked so hard that the only thing he can do is liquidate his position.”
