175 Chances of Admission

When Zhong Yue left Qualcomm, it was already afternoon. As soon as he left the building, Xu Ruoyun couldn't wait to ask him, "You just said you can provide a complete chip design solution. Is this true?"

The account manager of Qualcomm did not take Zhong Yue seriously, but she knew that he would not speak nonsense.∷∷, so when she heard that he could have a complete chip design plan, she was very shocked. She even lost her mind to discuss with Qualcomm and handed it over to her deputy.

In the mobile phone industry, chips can be said to be the most important part. However, in the whole world, there are only a handful of companies that can design chips. There are even fewer mobile phone companies that can design chips by themselves.

The two top mobile phone companies, Apple and Samsung, use their own chips.

Not to mention these two companies, just talking about China, Weihua, which relies on HiSilicon, has gradually gotten rid of its dependence on Qualcomm and embarked on the road of independent design. In the past few years, rice was so glorious that it has been surpassed by Weihua. After all, it is lost in technology.

From this we can see that mobile phone companies with chip design capabilities may not be successful, but companies that can reach the top must have such capabilities.

With Xu Ruoyun's determination, when he thought that the company could have chip design capabilities like Apple and Samsung, his heart was pounding. Sometimes he wanted to be Zhong Yue's character, so he wouldn't be joking. Sometimes he wanted to be so advanced in chip design, so how could he do it alone?

For a moment, I was worried about gains and losses.

After all, it was the bait that Zhong Yue threw out was too big. Even someone who was knowledgeable like her couldn't help but be moved.

Zhong Yue said, "I have been doing research on this area in the past two years, and finally I have achieved some results and tried to design a chip."

Hearing this, Xu Ruoyun's eyes were about to shine. She knew that Zhong Yue was doing some research, and had also visited the basement of his villa and witnessed the robots he made. They were definitely at the top of the world. With such an impression, she naturally felt that this was very credible.

"pity……"

As he said that, Zhong Yue shook his head and said, "For us now, even if we have a design plan, it will be useless."

Xu Ruoyun was immediately poured on a head of cold water.

In today's era, in the manufacturing industry, except for the kind of high-quality goods without technical content, electronic products cannot be directly produced and sold with technology. Without patent authorization, they are reported to everyone. They can still deal with it in China. If you want to go abroad, you will definitely lose all your pants.

No matter how good Zhong Yue's technology is, it will be useless if he can't get patent authorization. High-end technologies like chip manufacturing can only find wafer manufacturers to find foundries. There are only a few wafer foundries in the world. Without authorization certificates, it may be possible that people will be willing to produce them for you.

Xu Ruoyun was not so easily given up. After calming down his feverish mind, he soon had a new idea. His eyes moved and said, "The threshold for chips is really too high. Whether it is capital, technology or patents, it is not something that ordinary people can play with."

Zhong Yue knew that this was just a threshold. Even if he had money, technology, and patents, he might not be able to play. Semiconductor giants like Deyi and Intel have no shortage of these three things. As a result, one gave up his chip business, and the other was suppressed by Qualcomm in his mobile phone chip business.

However, he had measured early in the morning that as long as Yizhi can continue to grow, the chip business can rise. This is the benefit of building related industries. Just like he went from building mobile games to opening an application store, it was much better than making chips at the beginning.

Of course, if there is a crisis in the mobile phone business, the chip business will be weaker. This is a relationship of prosperity and loss. The risks are also greatly increased. The investments of both companies are based on the success or failure of the mobile phone business. No matter how you look at it, you are too eager for quick success and instant benefits.

Zhong Yue was also thinking of joining Qualcomm at the beginning, but after the Qualcomm manager's reply, he immediately realized that companies like Qualcomm probably don't like him. Even if they impress them with excellent designs and reach cooperation, they will definitely take away the big head. So he immediately gave up this idea.

He asked, "Do you have any suggestions?"

Xu Ruoyun said a company name, "Nvidia."

Zhong Yue smiled slightly and nodded. This world-famous IC semiconductor company is his primary goal.

The most famous company is graphics cards. In fact, it has many businesses. In addition to graphics cards, it also makes gaming console chips. In recent years, it has entered the field of mobile phone chips.

Unfortunately, although they have invested heavily in mobile phone chips, they have lost the opportunity and have not improved much. They have suffered serious losses for several consecutive years and have not been able to hold on. Last year, they announced their withdrawal from the mobile phone chip market.

What Zhong Yue likes is the company's mobile phone chip business. "How much does it cost to win their mobile phone chip business?"

Xu Ruoyun frowned with delicate eyebrows. She used to be a venture capitalist, and valuation of a company was her strength. However, it was not easy to judge in this case. She said hesitantly, "If you want to win the entire chip business, you will probably cost more than 700 million US dollars."

Hearing this number, Zhong Yue sighed in his heart. He really couldn't take out such a large sum of money at the moment, unless he sold Yiruan's shares. Otherwise, even if he went to a loan, he would not be able to borrow such a number.

Of course, he could not sell Yiruan's shares, so he could only find another way.

"Do you think Nvidia is willing to sell technology and patent licensing?" Zhong Yue asked again.

Xu Ruoyun said with a serious expression, "I'm afraid they will speak loudly. Our Yizhi is just a little famous in China. In the eyes of these international giants, I'm afraid they don't have the qualifications to cooperate. If you want to talk about the acquisition rashly, you will definitely be regarded as a sucker and get a spoil."

"Yes." Zhong Yue couldn't help but have some headaches.

Xu Ruoyun pondered for a moment and suggested, "You can let Wu Yawen introduce it in the middle, which will reduce a lot of resistance. However, even so, buying various technologies and patents will cost hundreds of millions of dollars. Unless Yizhi goes public, the company will not be able to make so much money in the past two years."

"I'm not waiting for time."

Zhong Yue knew that she meant to wait a little longer, but now the situation in the chip market is changing dramatically. In a few years, it may cost several times the price to get the entry qualification.

"No matter what, let's get in touch with Nvidia's senior management first." (To be continued.)
