Chapter 161 If You Ask for a Hammer, You Will Get a Hammer. Rumors Stop only with the Wise!
"The Public Relations Department immediately refuted the rumors. Within ten days, the first batch of Geek X1 will be shipped one after another, and the rumor makers will be held accountable accordingly."
Futian District, Shenzhen City.
Longxing Technology Company Headquarters.
When Chen Xing rushed back to the company, he immediately came to the public relations department and gave a clear attitude to the employees in charge of emergency public relations.
at the same time.
He came to the marketing department again.
Before Yao Nana and other marketing employees could ask about their intention, Chen Xing got straight to the point: "In five days, the second batch of Geek X1 mobile phone pre-sales will start, totaling 50,000 units. Please contact the corresponding platform to prepare."
Five days later!
Five days later again!
Can the marketing department employees clearly remember that the 25th, five days later, is the date for stock replenishment of one million units of Longxing X2? Now Geek X1 actually launches pre-sale on this date?
"correct."
Chen Xing thought of something else and continued: "The brilliant X1 mobile phone will also be released for pre-sale on the 25th, with 50,000 units. In addition, the first batch of pre-sold Geek X1 will be shipped within ten days. Please take this time. Work hard and do a good job in publicity and communication."
Brilliant X1.
Geek X1.
Longxing X2.
The sudden release of three mobile phones gave the marketing department an unusual smell, as if the smell of gunpowder was a bit strong.
You know, since they sold three batches of the Cuican X1 in a row, they have not replenished their inventory for half a month, and no one knows what happened to this phone.
Some people speculate that the reason why Chen Xing has not replenished the goods is because he wanted to make way for the Geek X1 to ensure the sales of his brother brand.
However!
But in fact, it's not.
The main reason why Chen Xing did not replenish the brilliant X1 was the Kaitian baseband chip, and everything else was normal.
Parts for the batch of 50,000 units have already been purchased.
What he originally thought was that the Xianlongxing X2 mobile phone was confusing the public. If the heat passed and the SOC God chip was not produced yet, he would delay the release of the Cuican X1 for a few days, so as to maximize the public response time.
But I never expected that people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations, and plans are not as fast as changes. There are bloggers on the Internet taking the lead, questioning Longxing Technology Company’s PPT-made Geek X1 mobile phone.
Although the guesses online are pretty good, will Chen Xing admit it?
impossible!
PPT fabrication is no less than academic fraud.
To put it mildly, it ruins goodwill.
To be more serious, users may spontaneously resist and trigger a series of subsequent questions, which Chen Xing cannot accept.
A dead pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. You can guess whatever you want, but I won’t admit it anyway.
But now, strictly speaking, Chen Xing is no longer a PPT maker.
Because just half an hour ago, Gao Yongming called and the photomasks for the four SOC God chips were successfully produced. It is expected that the charter flight will go directly to the Guancheng Blue and Green Factory chip factory tonight.
As long as there is a SOC God chip, the production of Geek X1 will not be a problem, and there will be no PPT manufacturing.
…
After Chen Xing informed the public relations department and marketing department one after another, he returned to the office and called Zhang Heting into the office.
"President, are you looking for me?"
Seeing Zhang Heting's arrival, Chen Xing nodded slightly and said, "I'm going to Guancheng on a business trip for a few days. I'll take care of the company. If you encounter something that can't be solved, just call me."
On a business trip again?
It hasn’t been long since I came back!
Zhang Heting paused. While feeling surprised, he did not ask for the reason. Instead, he nodded and said, "I understand."
"Well, go get busy."
"OK."
After Zhang Heting left, Chen Xing immediately sent a WeChat voice message to Lin Tian instead of making a call.
Because considering that he may work in a clean room and his mobile phone is stored in the changing room, leaving a message is the most effective way of communication.
"Four photomasks have been produced and are ready for production."
"call out--"
Voice sending.
After finishing all this, Chen Xing leaned back in his chair, eyes flashing with excitement. Only they knew what the four photomasks were.
A 48-nanometer process DUV lithography machine has a deep ultraviolet light source wavelength of 193 nanometers. If you want to produce a 14-nanometer SOC chip, you need to split it into four pieces.
Because if two pieces are split, the spacing is 28 nanometers, and if four pieces are split, the transistor spacing of the circuit pattern will reach 56 nanometers. In this way, the accuracy of the 48-nanometer DUV lithography machine can meet the production requirements.
Of course.
Multiple exposure technology also has its limits.
Lin Tian once said when demonstrating multiple exposure technology at Loongson International that splitting the pattern into four pieces and exposing and etching four times is the limit. Beyond this number, not to mention the extremely high difficulty, semiconductor silicon wafers and circuit patterns will also Correspondingly damaged.
Currently, the only one that requires four photomasks is the SOC God chip. Lin Tian can naturally react when he hears the voice.
After notifying Lin Tian, he called the two joint CEOs of Blue and Green Factory, Duan Yongping and Chen Yong, to inform him, and then sent a WeChat text message to Ren Guofei.
…
the other side.
Longxing Technology Bantian Wasteland.
Ren Guofei is still planning the location of the signal base station for Chen Xing, and discussing possible problems with Chen Yapeng and the construction team at the construction site.
If you want to cover an entire area of 300 acres with 4G, you need the cooperation of macro base stations and micro base stations, because 2G, 3G, and 4G signals correspond to different coverage areas.
For example, 2G and 3G signals use the 900MHz low-frequency band, which has wide coverage and can meet most daily call needs.
But the 4G signal is different. It uses high-frequency bands below 3GHz. The modulation methods used by the three major operators are also different. For example, mobile operators use TD-LTE and FDD-LTE hybrid networking for their 4G. FDD B3/B8 and other signal frequency bands.
However, the higher the electromagnetic wave frequency band, the easier it is to be hindered by obstacles, so the signal coverage range is smaller. 4G high-frequency electromagnetic waves can often only cover 3-5 kilometers, while in open areas it can reach about 7 kilometers.
After combining Chen Xing's needs and the specific plans of Longxing Technology's Bantian base, Ren Guofei marked several locations.
"It can be built here by the lake, and then the roofs of buildings, such as employee dormitories, R&D buildings, and main office buildings, can be installed, so that it can be initially covered."
Chen Yapeng looked at Ren Guofei's punctuation, nodded slightly and said, "Then what is the estimated project cost for building so many base stations?"
"An Acer..."
Ren He was about to make a quotation, but was interrupted by Ren Guofei: "Three million is all-inclusive. I can call the construction team over tomorrow to build the base station in the open area first."
Chen Yapeng was surprised by the price of three million, not because it was expensive, but because it was too cheap.
According to his understanding, the current cost of 4G base stations is extremely expensive, starting at one million. The location Ren Guofei just marked for him requires the construction of at least four macro base stations, not counting micro base stations. This is clearly to let them take advantage.
Anyone who has been involved in society knows that it is difficult to pay back debts of gratitude.
If you owe money, you can pay it back in full.
If you owe a favor, sometimes it cannot be solved with money, and the price you pay may even be immeasurable.
Chen Yapeng has also been in the business world for many years. He can be considered a self-made man. Naturally, he will not be stupid enough to take advantage of it. Instead, he declined politely: "I have to discuss this offer with Chen Xing privately."
With the cost quote being so low, it was obvious who Ren Guofei wanted to get, and it wouldn't be Chen Yapeng anyway.
Seeing that Chen Yapeng didn't want to take advantage, Ren Guofei smiled calmly and said: "That's okay. If you have an answer, you can contact me at any time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in his pocket beeped "Didi", indicating that there was a new WeChat contact message.
He did not rush to check the news, but said goodbye: "Then we will go back first, Mr. Chen, please take care."
"Boss Ren too."
Chen Yapeng smiled and said.
The two of them smiled and exchanged greetings, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two old foxes were only smiling.
After being polite, Chen Yapeng also sent Ren Guofei and Ren He out of Bantian Wasteland and sent them back to Kunpeng headquarters base.
After returning to his home site, Ren He, who was in charge of the construction of the 4G signal base station, didn't understand and asked: "Boss, the price you quoted just now is too low. Not only did we get three million in vain, but we will probably have to repay the price."
"You do not understand."
Ren Guofei glanced at him lightly.
Last time there was a problem with the quartz crucibles at the Longxing Silicon Factory, he immediately brought a batch of equipment there without taking anything away.
On the surface, it seemed like he had lost hundreds of thousands, but Chen Xing owed a personal debt.
When they asked Shi Shunyi to stay in the factory to "study", Chen Xing had no reason to refuse. Kunpeng Industrial also obtained the 12-inch semiconductor silicon wafer and the entire production process of doping technology.
Pay hundreds of thousands, and get back tens of millions, or even billions.
Ren Guofei has experienced the benefits of Chen Xing's debt of gratitude.
If the construction of a signal base station this time can also make Chen Xing owe a debt of gratitude, maybe it will be used one day in the future.
Ren He was a little confused, but he didn't pursue it further. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Then do we really want to build a base station for them?"
"Um."
Ren Guofei responded calmly and continued: "If there is an answer from there, I will use the best equipment to build it for them without having to save money for me."
"Understood."
Ren He nodded.
While walking, Ren Guofei suddenly remembered that someone had sent him a message on WeChat, and he immediately took out his phone to check.
The next second.
His expression changed slightly, his pupils twitched, and his steps stopped.
Before Ren He could react, he had walked a few meters in front of Ren Guofei before he knew something was wrong.
When he looked sideways...
What about Ren Guofei? ? ?
The moment he turned back, Ren Guofei was already walking towards the parking lot, his pace not so fast.
…
at the same time.
Weibo information platform.
In response to the rhythm on the Internet, Longxing Technology Company’s official blog issued an announcement, accompanied by a picture of a lawyer’s letter.
[Our Ministry of Justice has paid close attention to the untrue remarks made by user "Yangdi Evaluation" in Xiaopo Station's live broadcast room, room number 154×××111, and social accounts, and reserves the right to pursue legal liability. The Internet is not This is a lawless place, please stop spreading rumors immediately! ]
The announcement to refute the rumors, along with the lawyer's letter, was published online, instantly making the crowd excited and leaving likes and comments.
[Society Youth]: "Holy crap! The official blog of Longxing Technology is over. Let's fight! Let's fight! Let's see who is lying!"
[Small World]: "As a law student, I just want to say that a lawyer's letter is useless. It is just a legal threatening letter. If you have the ability, you can directly summon the court!"
[Down with Android]: "A dry announcement is of no use. If you have a mobile phone, you can sell it. Isn't it because the PPT machine was exposed and you became angry?"
[Sunday Sun]: "I really like Yang Di's words. If you have a mobile phone, why don't you just sell it? Who are you trying to scare by sending a lawyer's letter? I suggest users who have purchased Geek X1 sue them for defrauding consumers and compensate them for the fake ones. ten!"
The release of the lawyer's letter did not stop the turmoil, but instead made the incident soaring in popularity. Countless people who did not think it was a big deal began to set the pace in the comment areas on both sides.
Every word, every word, stirs up a lot of heat.
After the blogger of "Yangdi Review" saw the lawyer's letter, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly wanted to delete the video.
He is a lonely man. Although he has hundreds of thousands of fans, compared with the giant Longxing Technology Company, let alone hundreds of thousands of fans, millions of fans have to be weighed.
Posting false statements to smear the brand image of another company is a serious crime and can be taken to court.
Yang Di didn't dare to gamble because he was just a weirdo, and he wasn't sure whether Longxing Technology had a current version of the Geek X1.
If there is!
Then he lied.
If not, then at most he did not break the law.
No matter which outcome, there was no substantial benefit to him. Just when he wanted to delete the video and give in to Longxing Technology Company, a transfer message popped up on WeChat.
no more, no less.
Twenty thousand yuan!
Below the transfer information, there is also the WeChat message of the transferor.
[Apple Marketing Manager—Zou Kan]: “You don’t need to delete the video, you can just pretend to be dead. If something goes wrong, we have a professional legal team to file a lawsuit for you, and we will bear all the losses.”
The sudden transfer and Apple's guarantee cheered up Yang Di. He directly chose to collect the money and replied: "Thank you, Manager Zou, I know what to do."
The wages of avarice is death.
He was afraid just now because he was alone and could not afford to offend Longxing Technology Company.
But now he is backed by Apple, a behemoth with a market capitalization of trillions, and he is still afraid of a hammer!
However, at the moment he collected the money, the popularity on the Internet had reached its peak. The entire Internet was discussing whether the Geek X1 was in stock, and tens of millions of people participated in the discussion.
Yao Nana saw the right opportunity and asked Weibo operators to publish a second blog post.
[In response to the malicious rumors on the Internet and the false information of various conspiracy theories, after an internal meeting of our company, we decided that we will open 50,000 units of Bright X1 and 50,000 units of Geek at 0:00 on January 25, 2015. X1 is pre-sold, and it is promised that within ten days, the first batch of pre-sold Geek X1 will be shipped one after another. Rumors stop with the wise, please all netizens speak rationally! ]
If the lawyer's letter in the first blog post had no effect, it only made netizens quarrel more fiercely and increased the popularity.
So the second blog post can be said to be a killer. Not only did it strongly refute the rumors at the height of popularity, but it also promoted a wave of pre-sales of the brilliant X1 and Geek X1.
Many anti-fans who were still passionately talking about "selling goods if they have the ability" were instantly confused after seeing the rumor-refuting blog post.
What the hell?
Do you, Longxing Technology, really have the goods? ? ?
