Chapter 502 Pingguo Company panicked
Two days later, Future Technology Group officially announced its successful development of a mobile processor, the White Tiger 835 chip, which shocked the entire technology industry.
At the same time, the detailed performance parameters of the chip were also made public, demonstrating amazing performance.
This news quickly attracted widespread attention and heated discussions among peers in the industry, and many competitors were shocked and uneasy about Future Technology Group's technological breakthrough.
From automotive chips to today's mobile processors, Future Technology Group is expanding its product portfolio at an astonishing pace, gradually encroaching on market share. The groundbreaking performance of the White Tiger 835 chip, in particular, is putting immense pressure on industry giants.
Several leading companies in the industry, including Gaotong, Sixing, and Hepingguo, were shocked by the incident and launched emergency internal discussions to plan response strategies.
Especially Gaotong Company, as the world's leading chip manufacturer, previously lost a large part of its automotive chip market share to Future Technology Group. Now with the addition of mobile processors, it has another strong competitor, and its market position faces unprecedented threats.
Moreover, the release of the White Tiger 835 chip means that the mobile processor market with the highest profit margin will gradually be eroded by Future Technology Group.
This move will undoubtedly affect the competitive landscape of the global smartphone industry.
Future Technology Group, with its strong R&D capabilities, is quietly changing the entire industrial ecosystem.
As soon as the U.S. stock market opened, the share prices of semiconductor companies such as Gaotong, Sixing, and Hepingguo were directly hit and fell.
Last year, Future Technology Group's automotive chips were listed, and Gaotong's stock price plummeted. It is now less than 70% of the same period last year.
According to the current trend, Gaotong Company's stock price will continue to fall, and it would be good if it could reach 50% of the level at the beginning of last year.
In the two or three days following the release of the White Tiger 835 chip, domestic social media and major forums were abuzz with discussion about the chip. Netizens speculated about the impact this chip, powered by Future Technology Group's latest technology, would have on the market. As the first phone to feature the White Tiger 835, the Huawei phone also became a focal point of discussion.
"White Tiger 835 will first be installed in Huawei's flagship phone. What is the estimated price of this phone?
"Will it break the 6,000 yuan mark?" a netizen posted on a forum, sparking speculation about the price.
Due to the powerful performance of the White Tiger 835 chip, it is generally believed that the price of this phone will be very high.
“More than 6,000 yuan?
It's a bit suspenseful!
"Given the current mobile phone market, a price tag of 6,000 yuan is definitely not something the average person can easily afford," another netizen commented, "The average office worker only earns around 2,000 yuan a month. If they want to buy this phone, they'll have to save up for several months."
"Future Technology Group's products are really good. Starting from new energy vehicles, they never cheat the poor." A netizen joked.
Future Technology Group’s technological products are indeed very good, but most ordinary people cannot enjoy their benefits.
As the discussion deepened, more and more people began to pay attention to whether Future Technology Group would break the price barriers in the existing mobile phone market through more flexible pricing strategies and bring high-end technology to a wider consumer group.
In any case, the release of the White Tiger 835 chip has undoubtedly injected new vitality into the entire smartphone industry and made consumers more expectant of Huawei's mobile phone products.
At the same time, various mobile phone manufacturers consulted Future Technology Group about the White Tiger 835 chip.
The domestic price is 1500 yuan per piece, which has scared many mobile phone manufacturers.
With such high chip costs, the phone really has to cost more than 6,000 yuan.
But no matter what, many mobile phone manufacturers have proposed to purchase some samples for research and development.
However, the sample price is 2000 yuan per piece, with a minimum order of 100 pieces.
In just a few days, Future Technology Group sold thousands of White Tiger 835 chips.
4 month 18 day,
Future Technology Group has received a major order - the Indian military plans to purchase 100 million White Tiger 835 chips.
The deal seemed quite lucrative, but when the two sides began to discuss the payment method, problems immediately emerged, leading to a heated disagreement.
The conditions proposed by the Indian military made the management of Future Semiconductor Company quite dissatisfied.
They are only willing to pay 20% of the purchase price in advance, and the remaining balance will be paid after the goods are delivered and verified to be qualified.
Moreover, they insisted on payment in rupees rather than the international currency or RMB.
Such conditions obviously make the senior executives of future semiconductor companies feel very uneasy, especially in terms of financial security and transaction transparency, they are not willing to compromise easily.
When Hao Qiang learned about this, he suddenly became angry and slammed the table without hesitation.
He immediately issued a strict order, clearly stating: "From now on, for any procurement project involving the Indian government, we must require 100% advance payment, and the payment must be in international currency or RMB.
Otherwise, we will resolutely not cooperate!"
Hao Qiang was well aware of the credibility of the Indian government. After receiving the goods, he began to find excuses to postpone payment, and sometimes even did not pay the balance at all.
Damn, he's so shameless.
As a world-leading technology company, Future Technology Group has no shortage of orders and can choose to cooperate with customers with better credibility and more stable cooperation.
Therefore, he would never take any unnecessary risks in such uncertain cooperation.
In the end, when Hao Qiang's opinions were conveyed to the Indian procurement negotiator, the other party was also very angry and said that Future Technology Group looked down on them, treated them differently, and was discriminatory.
But Future Technology Group strongly refuted the payment terms proposed by the Indian military and insisted on its position: the full amount must be paid in advance and the payment method must comply with international standards.
As the two sides could not reach an agreement on these key issues, Future Technology Group ultimately decided to reject the deal.
The deal ultimately ended in a sour note and was not successful.
As a result, India exposed the incident to the international media and took the opportunity to accuse Future Technology Group of applying "double standards" in international sales and showing obvious "discrimination" against India.
This news quickly attracted attention from all walks of life. Asan's accusations caused quite a stir in public opinion and brought considerable public pressure to Future Technology Group.
However, the public relations department of Future Technology Group acted quickly, immediately found out the entire negotiation process, learned in detail about the dispute and background between the two parties, and prepared to make clarifications to the outside world.
After careful research and analysis, the Public Relations Department decided to issue a public statement to quell external misunderstandings.
In a statement, the public relations department explained: “Regarding the transaction negotiations with the Indian military, Future Technology Group has always adhered to the principles of fairness and justice.
In our business dealings with any country, we strictly follow internationally accepted payment rules and ensure the security of funds.
The Indian military's proposal of a '20% advance payment' and the requirement for payment in rupees clearly cannot meet our basic transaction requirements.
We cannot deliver high-value products based solely on a small advance payment, especially when it comes to guaranteeing financial security and contract fulfillment. International standards are our bottom line and we cannot compromise."
Following the release of the statement, the direction of public opinion changed rapidly.
More and more Chinese people are beginning to understand and support the position of Future Technology Group.
The public said, "It is unrealistic to ask for immediate delivery with only a 20% advance payment."
"Moreover, the currency required is rupees, which is obviously a sign of taking advantage of Future Technology Group."
It is generally believed that Future Technology Group's demands are very reasonable. After all, in a global business environment, any company must protect its own interests, especially when faced with such large-scale purchases, which involve financial security. No company will easily compromise.
Normally, the international advance payment is at least 30%.
Of course, there is no specific standard for this. It actually depends on the agreement between the two parties.
If it is a non-standard product, the advance payment ratio will be very high.
After all, if non-standard products are produced and buyers don’t want them, manufacturers simply won’t be able to sell them.
Products like Baihu 835 are standard products. Even if this merchant doesn't want it, other merchants will, and the prepayment ratio can be lower.
If it is a hot-selling item, it is normal for the seller to ask for a higher price. It’s up to you whether you want it or not.
For most Chinese people, they strongly agree that the Indian countries should be treated differently, and the advance payment ratio should be increased for such countries with little credibility.
In fact, this kind of thing also happened in Hao Qiang's previous life.
Countless international brands and manufacturers have failed in India.
It’s not that Hao Qiang is targeting this country, but they have too many tricks.
Some time ago, his father-in-law Qiu Hai had a cooperation order with that company. The other party did pay a 70% deposit, and after the goods arrived, the other party transferred the remaining 30% to a private account.
As a result, the other party reported the case to the police on the grounds of fraud, and eventually the private account was frozen, and the 30% payment was returned to the other party.
Fortunately, the loss on this contract was not much.
Future Technology Group also has some uncollectible bad debts. Fortunately, the amount is not large, but it still accumulates to several million yuan, which is normal.
When doing business, the biggest fear is not being able to recover the payment for goods.
The incident between Future Technology Group and the Indian military ended dramatically.
Warwick also announced its flagship phone, MateS!
The battery is 2700 mAh, the screen size is inches; the resolution is 1280x720 pixels; 2.5D glass; AMOLED main screen material, the front camera is 800 million pixels, the rear camera is 1300 million pixels, and it has fingerprint recognition technology.
在2012年，屏幕分辨率还没达到1920x1280像素，2012年上市的平果5，其屏幕分辨率为1136x640。
The four-star flagship phone Galaxy S3 also has a resolution of 1280x720 pixels.
The biggest advantage of Mate S is its 8-core processor, while other mobile phone manufacturers' flagship phones only have 4-core processors.
As for the price of Mate S, it has not yet been announced.
Currently, the starting price of iPhone 5 is US$649 (16GB version, US price), and the price in China is more than 5,000.
The four-star Galaxy S3 is priced similarly to the Pingguo.
It is estimated that the terminal price of the 16G version of MateS will exceed 7,000 yuan.
The price of such a mobile phone was indeed "high" in China in 2012.
However, many Chinese people are still very rich.
In 2011, Pingguo's iPhone sales in the Chinese market were around 1000 million units.
By 2012, sales had reached 2500 million units.
For some consumers, a Pingguo mobile phone priced at six or seven thousand yuan is something they would buy without hesitation, even if it means spending their blood.
……
Cupertino, California, is located in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Countless technological innovations that changed the world were born here.
This is also where the headquarters of the global technology giant Pingguo Company is located.
Recently, there has been an unusually tense atmosphere in the company's senior offices.
Future Technology Group announced the launch of its latest White Tiger 835 processor. This news quickly swept the global market and had a profound impact on many competitors including Pingguo.
