655 Infinite scenery on dangerous peaks (4k)(1/2)
Domestic chips?
Domestic independently developed chips?
Domestic independently developed 3G baseband chip?!
The more prefixes, the greater the gold content.
Logically, Huawei has produced many domestically produced chips in recent years, but this is the first time that baseband chips have been produced, and as soon as they came out, they were on par with the world's top players such as Intel and Qualcomm.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Yang Yuanqing took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, and then put them back on. He saw that the Barong 1000 baseband chip was still in Hu Yuhua's hand, and his head suddenly exploded with a buzzing sound.
The scene was completely silent and quiet.
"Bah bang bang."
Lu Fei stood up and took the lead in clapping.
Next to him, Li Xiangdong, as well as the leaders and businessmen in the front row, all clapped as if they were waking up from a dream, with incredible expressions written on their faces.
Applause was like a storm, sweeping the audience immediately.
Hu Yuhua and Lu Fei looked at each other, raised their chins, and eloquently explained that "Barong" was named "Barong" because Barong Snow Mountain is located in DR County, adjacent to Mount Everest, with an altitude of 7,013 meters.
Chips are like climbing a snow mountain.
Step by step, step by step, climb to the top!
"Mr. Lu said this to all of us, don't be afraid of the clouds covering your eyes, the infinite scenery will be on the dangerous peaks!"
"Brother Lu, this, is this your surprise?"
Li Xiangdong was used to the scene and stuttered a bit when he spoke.
"Is it surprising, is it surprising, is it awesome, is it awesome?"
Lu Fei suppressed his restless heart.
"Awesome! This surprise is so unexpected! You guys are really good at hiding it. It turns out to be a 3G baseband chip!"
Li Xiangdong punched him in the chest excitedly.
Telecom's first shot at launching 3G was "Tianyi", and the main contract phone was Shenzhou, which was already extremely cost-effective, and now it is equipped with China's first self-developed baseband chip.
It is enough to predict how popular hasee4 will be.
Unable to hold back my excitement, I eagerly inquired about hasee4’s public price and the operator’s centralized purchasing price.
"The public price is 1999, and the operator still follows the old rules."
Lu Fei cast a "you know" look.
"Hahaha~"
Li Xiangdong couldn't help laughing.
Done, there has never been such a wonderful start!
"Furthermore, Hasee4 has been exclusively distributed by China Telecom for contract phones in the first half of the year. In the second half of the year, China Unicom and China Mobile will launch it."
Lu Fei smiled and said: "Brother Li, you should be satisfied now, you can't say I won't help you anymore?"
"Hehe, as expected, Brother Lu is still looking for you, Brother Li!"
Li Xiangdong was very satisfied with this gift, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you actually even produced the baseband chip."
Just as the two were chatting in full swing, the leaders sent a secretary and politely invited Lu Fei to see them.
"Leader, my good news is good, isn't it?"
Lu Fei wore a very dignified face.
"Hahaha, not only is it good, we were discussing what it would be just now. You, you, you really gave us a big surprise!" The leaders of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology looked at each other and smiled in a kind manner.
"How on earth did you do that?"
The Director of the Electronics Department was even more emotional.
"First of all, we must give credit to Huawei. Before 3G was officially commercialized in China, it was already making 3G and LTE-related chips. After we learned about this situation, we took the initiative to propose cooperation. The two companies hit it off, and they just fell in love and did it!
"
Lu Fei smiled: "The credit is mainly due to logic, Huawei, and all employees of Pengbai. It is their sweat, perseverance, and belief that have created the emergence of domestic baseband chips."
"How did you come up with the idea of making baseband chips?"
A leader from the Ministry of Science and Technology was very curious.
"We have always believed that it is better to have a father and a mother than to have one yourself. It is better to do it early than to do it later than to do it now."
Lu Fei crossed his arms and looked serious.
The research and development of baseband chips is different from that of application processors, which requires long-term accumulation. For example, if you want to build a 5G chip, it not only contains 5G, but also needs to support multiple modes of 2G/3G/4G at the same time.
Without the accumulation of communication technologies from 2G to 4G, it is impossible to directly develop 5G. It takes at least 5 years for each communication mode to be developed from scratch and stabilized. Once left behind, the gap in one generation will soon widen to 5 to 5 years.
10 years.
Intel can't catch up with Qualcomm, the root of the problem is here!
Moreover, technology alone is not enough. It also requires a lot of manpower, material resources and time to conduct on-site testing with global networks.
"It's not easy, it's not easy."
The leaders listened attentively and were grateful.
"But there are still regrets. Currently, Barong's performance has only caught up with Intel's level, and there is still a big gap between it and Qualcomm." Lu Fei sighed.
"Are you belittling yourself or praising yourself? The first baseband chip has reached the level of Intel. Are you still not satisfied?"
The leader of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology looked at him with fondness, and said with a smile: "Does the second baseband chip want to go to heaven?"
"I dare not think about it, but I am determined to catch up with Qualcomm. We have invested in LTE, FDD, 4G, and even 5G. The Nortel Network we acquired also has a lot of LTE and 4G technologies and patents, and we also poached them
We have hired many technical backbones..."
Lu Fei was making the report with great joy.
"How different is it from Qualcomm?"
The Director of the Electronics Department asked a question.
"There is about a generation to a generation and a half difference."
Lu Fei is not secretive, "Designing a chip, regardless of standards, only takes three years from algorithm to mass production. To catch up with Qualcomm, we must shorten the iteration cycle, standards, algorithm baseband chips, radio frequency chips, physical layer software,
Protocol stack software and testing require full collaboration in every aspect, and we are now building our own domestic RF chip team to break the U.S. monopoly."
"Good job!"
The leaders said with steady and powerful voices: "I hope you will continue to work hard, and we will always be your strongest backing."
After asking about some more difficulties, they wanted to take Lu Fei's feedback on the problems that needed to be solved and bring them back for a meeting to discuss. Those that could be solved would be solved, and those that couldn't be solved would be solved as best they could.
When Lu Fei returned to his original seat, Li Xiangdong came over and said in a low voice: "The leader also talked to me just now and asked me to fully support and help you within the scope of my principles."
"Speaking of which, Brother Li, you really need to help me with something small." Lu Fei narrowed his eyes into a thin line.
"Tell me, tell me, who is following whom between us?"
"Look, the IPTV industry is in full bloom this year. Does China Telecom's set-top box also give us a competitive qualification?"
"You still make set-top boxes?!"
"To be precise, it is the chip of the set-top box. I can responsibly say that the set-top box based on our chip has absolutely good performance and stable product, no worse than Broadcom's solution."
"Really?"
"Although I'll test it, there's not much difference in performance. It's even slightly better in terms of heat dissipation and boot time." Lu Fei said with confidence in his tone, "If it's not accurate, just pretend that I didn't say what I just said."
"Brother Lu, these words are enough!"
Li Xiangdong curled his lips: "To tell you the truth, I have long been dissatisfied with Broadcom's chips. They are expensive and have a bad attitude. Why don't they bully us because we don't have domestic competing products? Now, let's kill Broadcom's arrogance." .”
"Then it's settled."
Lu Fei stretched out his hand.
“It’s a deal!”
Li Xiangdong shook hands with him and said, "Brother Lu, this is a baseband chip, a computer CPU chip, and a server chip. Why are you making a set-top box chip again? Isn't your leap too big?"
"To make money, hardware such as chips is too hard. If we don't improve the treatment, how can we make good people give up on the Internet and finance?"
Lu Fei looked around: "Otherwise, why do you think I would hold the press conference at Beijing University and Shuimu University?"
"Oh, I understand, I understand."
The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
After the first wave of climax caused by the Balong 1000 baseband chip, and immediately after the launch of WeChat, Lu Huateng used hasee4 to demonstrate a voice call in person, and another climax broke out.
Applause surged like waves, one wave after another.
