"Chen Yu, I heard from Wen Qi that you want to double the production of C4?"
"Yes."
"This is not a joke, are you sure?"
"If I'm not sure, why would I come to Tai City?"
Wang Xuehong was also a shareholder of VIA Electronics, and she was the biggest shareholder.
Although Wang Xuehong didn't care much about chips, she naturally had the right to know about VIA.
It wasn't strange that Wang Xuehong knew about this.
Therefore, Chen Yu talked to Wang Xuehong about VIA Electronics' chips as usual.
"Impressive. Did you set up some kind of trap again?"
Wang Xuehong smiled.
As for Chen Yu, who was 20 years younger than her, she had never been able to understand him.
"Boss Wang will know when the time comes."
Chen Yu didn't say anything.
"Looks like you have a plan, I won't worry about you. However, your mobile phone business has been in a lot of trouble recently. "
Sometimes, the electronics industry didn't need to be discussed. People could know what was happening in the industry just by looking at the market.
Not to mention the huge price increase in the industry.
"It's a bit troublesome."
Chen Yu didn't deny it. He nodded and said, "But, it's not a big problem."
"Not a big problem?"
Wang Xuehong said, "Chen Yu, stop bragging. Even Wen Qi is worried about you."
Hearing this, Chen Wenqi also interrupted and said, "These global international brands should be deliberately targeting your domestic mobile phone manufacturers. We've encountered this before. If we don't handle it well, there will be endless trouble in the future."
Chen Yu knew that Chen Wenqi was talking about the competition between VIA Electronics and Intel.
In order to destroy VIA's chip business, Intel used a series of ruthless tactics.
Nokia and Samsung were the same.
"Thank you, Boss Chen, for your reminder. In fact, their price increase might not be a good strategy. Now that the electronics industry is developing, if they increase their prices casually, they will have to bear the consequences if competitors appear in the future. "
For example, the LCD panel and memory.
Because of this price increase, the higher-ups began to pay attention to this area.
It was said that the higher-ups were preparing to introduce strong policies to support a group of domestic electronic manufacturing companies.
If all the electronic components could be produced domestically in the future, their good days would come to an end.
The two also understood what Chen Yu said, but Wang Xuehong still said, "Distant water can't quench a present thirst. The domestic electronic manufacturing industry is still several generations behind foreign countries. It will take a long time to catch up with them. But if Huanyu Technologies can't solve this problem, I'm afraid you'll have to give up the domestic mobile phone market. "
"Boss Wang seems to be very concerned about this?"
"What else can we do? We have a mobile phone business too."
"That's true."
Chen Yu nodded. "Actually, it's not like there's no other way. Recently, we've been chatting with a group of domestic cell phone manufacturers. Some of them want us to help them produce cell phones."
"You're the OEM?"
"You could say that."
"How many manufacturers have this idea?"
"Maybe they've discussed it. Almost all of the cell phone manufacturers have talked to us about this problem."
Chen Yu pretended not to take this seriously and said casually.
But when he said this, Wang Xuehong and Chen Wenqi were extremely surprised.
They had worked with Chen Yu before.
Huanyu Technologies had a large volume of its own, which also allowed Huanyu Technologies' manufacturing costs to be much lower than other companies.
Later on, Chen Yu came up with a mobile phone integration solution, which bound a large number of small cell phone manufacturers to Huanyu Technologies. Although the volume of these small cell phone manufacturers was not large, there were too many of them. If you had ten thousand units, they would have tens of thousands. The overall volume had increased.
If Chen Yu also got the orders from the other large mobile phone companies, then …
It could be said that Chen Yu controlled more than 60% of the domestic mobile phone OEM business.
Such a scale was simply terrifying.
"Chen Yu, don't fool me."
Although Chen Yu said it, Wang Xuehong still did not dare to believe it. "The major cell phone manufacturers have always designed and manufactured their own phones. Although some of them are OEM, the volume is not large."
Everyone knew why they didn't let others do the work for them.
Therefore, Wang Xuehong also did not dare to believe it.
It might be possible for him to get some OEM orders, but it was almost impossible for him to get all of them.
"Boss Wang has a point. Under normal circumstances, they naturally won't give us the orders, but as you were worried just now. If they don't do this, they almost have no qualifications to compete with foreign cell phone manufacturers. "
Seeing that Wang Xuehong was still a little doubtful, Chen Yu took out dozens of letters of intent from his bag.
"This is the letter of intent that Bubugao signed with us."
"This is the letter of intent that Waveguide signed with us."
"This is Jin Li …"
"This is Jin Li."
"This is …"
Finally, Chen Yu took out the heaviest one. "This is Lenovo's."
"Lenovo?"
Wang Xuehong did not personally take these letters of intent.
There was no need for that.
Wang Xuehong only needed to inquire about such actions, and he would know about it.
Since Chen Yu said this, it meant that this time, it was not a joke.
"Brilliant."
Even Wang Xuehong, who had always been a strong businesswoman, gave Chen Yu a thumbs up.
However, seeing Chen Yu take out these dozens of letters of intent, Wang Xuehong was a little excited.
Of course, she knew that these letters of intent were not official contracts.
However, if they could be signed, and all of them were signed, the rest of the formal OEM contracts would go through the process.
In other words, as long as they got these orders, Huanyu Technologies' OEM business would become world-class.
They might not be on par with Foxconn, but at least they would have a chance to compete with them.
If they could seize this opportunity, they might be on par with Foxconn in the future.
Of course, this was not a big deal.
Wang Xuehong had been in the electronics manufacturing industry for decades, and she knew that.
Although this kind of OEM did not have much technical content, once the scale was large, it would directly affect the entire electronics industry.
Wang Xuehong had always been deeply influenced by her father.
It was easy to make money in business.
However, if you could have a say in a certain field, then you could make this business a success.
"Chen Yu, how do you want to deal with this business?"
Wang Xuehong looked at Chen Yu and asked.
"I'm also thinking about this problem, but I have some problems on my side."
"What's wrong?"
"These orders are too big. If we want to accept their OEM orders, I've calculated that we need to expand the production line by at least 20 sets. We need to invest at least 500 million in this. This is just a preliminary estimate. 500 million may not be enough, at least 700 million. "
"700 million is not a lot. If we can get these orders, it's worth it."
"I think it's worth it too."
Chen Yu spread his hands. "But Boss Wang, you know that I spent a lot of money in the electronics industry. I also owe a bank loan, so I don't have that much cash flow."
"Money is not a problem. We can take it out first."
"How can I do that? I'm the biggest shareholder. I can't let Boss Wang lose out."
"How can I lose out? You can just give me the money later. Are you not going to accept these orders that are sent to you? If you don't accept them … "
Wang Xuehong was anxious.
She was really afraid that Chen Yu wouldn't even take the order that was sent to his door in order to save money.
"This …"
Seeing that Chen Yu was hesitating, Wang Xuehong seemed to have thought of something. "Chen Yu, I know what you're thinking. Although the Chinese mobile phone companies are also your competitors, you have to unite against the outside world. If the other Chinese mobile phone companies die, Huanyu Technologies will not be able to escape unscathed. Don't think that the remaining market will be yours if they die. "
"That makes sense."
"Damn it. Hurry up and go back to the mainland and sign a formal contract with them. Do you want to force me to go crazy?"
Seeing that Chen Yu was hesitating, Wang Xuehong slammed the table and shouted.
"Damn …"
Chen Yu was stunned.
He did not expect Wang Xuehong to have such a side to her.
"Chen Yu, don't mind her. Xuehong is like this when she's anxious."
Chen Yu, who knew his wife's personality, apologized to Chen Yu with his eyes. Then, he persuaded Chen Yu, "The technology barrier in the electronics industry is too heavy. If you want to fight against the foreign giants, you have to unite. Chen Yu, I suggest that you unite against the outside world first. After you defeat these foreign giants, you can fight against the Chinese mobile phone companies. Besides, when we fought against the Japanese, we also united against the outside world to achieve victory. As for the end, you know that you won. "
Chen Wenqi joked.
Chen Yu snorted. He did not expect Chen Wenqi to use this analogy. However, this analogy was simply too classic. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll sign a formal contract with them later."
