Chapter 30 Enhancement Center will have a critical hit.
Chapter 30 Enhancement Center will have a critical hit.
"Mr. Chen, something seems off about this batch of MTK6225s." The technician, holding a report, quickly walked towards Chen Hai's office.
"The MTK6225 has been used for so many years. It's such a mature chip, how much difference could there be?" Chen Hai said confidently before looking at the report.
But when he received the report and read it carefully for a while, his face also showed the same shocked expression.
The data above doesn't refer to the MTK 6225; it's clearly the MTK 6253. Performance has been significantly improved, but the most astonishing improvement is in power consumption.
"Where did these chips come from?"
"The boss sent it!"
"Could this be a chip that MediaTek is giving to its strategic partners? I didn't know that major customers have this kind of hidden benefit," another engineer muttered quietly.
Chen Hai nodded thoughtfully. This batch of chips was definitely due to MediaTek. It was probably related to their boss.
Don't ask what you shouldn't ask.
Inform the production department to immediately conduct reliability testing on this batch of chips. If the testing passes, the T1 enhanced version produced next month will use these chips instead.
I'm going to see the boss for a bit.
Chen Hai flipped through the other reports, which included some lower-end chips, but after testing, their performance was also upgraded to some extent.
It's perfectly fine to use it on the low-end T80 series.
…………
Three days later, five 13-meter heavy trucks arrived outside the Bao'an warehouse, each loaded with packaged used mobile phones.
The Bird Logistics Manager held the list and watched with a smug look as the Transsion staff recorded the quantities.
Actually, it's checked using a counting machine on the side.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Business has been booming lately, and we have an extra number of discarded phones. Is that alright?"
"Of course, no problem." The manager standing to the side looked at these people with gratitude on his face. These weren't enemies; they were clearly money-giving children.
They also helped him solve the performance indicator problem.
"A total of 1,287,000 units, at a contract price of 15 yuan per unit, totaling 19305000."
The manager handed over the invoice: "President Shen said it's cash settlement, no discounts."
After the manager confirmed it, he immediately signed the check.
1900 million yuan—that's almost half of Transsion's profit last month—but the handover was handled very smoothly. The news spread quickly, causing an uproar among recyclers in Huaqiangbei, especially those specializing in secondhand mobile phones…
"Has Transsion gone mad? Spending nearly 2000 million yuan on a bunch of electronic waste?"
"My son-in-law is a distributor for Bird mobile phones. He's seen all those old phones. Most of them can't even turn on. The chips are all worn out. The parts aren't worth much, not even enough to cover the workers' wages."
"Is this really charity work?"
"Is Transsion going to start refurbishing phones? But those junk products are more expensive to manufacture than a new one, aren't they?"
Various speculations circulated within the industry, but everyone remembered one thing: Transsion was serious about recycling used mobile phones, and offered the highest prices.
As a result, more discarded mobile phones from all over the country flooded into Bao'an.
Meanwhile, at the Waveguide headquarters.
Li Xiangdong was in a great mood as he looked at the check in front of him.
"That kid Xiaofei really put on a brave face and accepted our product."
He said to another vice president next to him, "They're clearly short on funds, yet they insist on taking on these 100 million+ junk units."
I want to see how he handles this. Will he continue buying low and selling high?
Another vice president was more cautious. He felt that Huaxing's move was a bit too risky, so he advised, "Old Li, if Chuanyin dares to accept this, they must have their own plans."
Shouldn't we investigate what they're up to, that other companies are handing them profits?
"What can you do?" Li Xiangdong's eyes were full of disdain, and his tone was even more confident.
"It's nothing more than taking apart some parts, at most getting some cheap refurbished machines, and selling them to poorer countries in Africa."
But how big can this kind of business be, and how thin are the profits? Breaking even is considered good.
[Shenyang Aircraft Corporation: It is indeed a refurbished aircraft, but it seems a little different from what you imagined.]
He stood up, with a confident look on his face: "Our focus is on taking down the special attack aircraft in Africa."
But Transsion sells for $99, so we'll sell for $98, or even $95. Our specs will even be slightly better. I believe the impoverished people of Africa will make the right choice.
Once the product hits the market, I'll show Shen Fei what true strength is, and what certain death means.
"But Mr. Li, we haven't investigated the African market... Will our products be unsuitable for the local conditions? Will there be any problems...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he was so frightened by Li Xiangdong's murderous gaze that he shut his mouth.
In ancient times, anyone who spoke discouraging words before a crucial battle should have been executed!
But the vice president didn't give up. He changed his approach and continued to persuade him.
"It is said that Transsion is producing a new phone with 10% better battery life and stronger performance, but the cost has not increased much."
"It's just a marketing gimmick," Li Xiangdong said casually, waving his hand.
"The MTk6225 chip only has so much performance; how much better can it be? It's probably just some system optimization and a bigger battery. How could the cost not go up? Either they cut corners, or they're just slow."
At this moment, he was full of confidence: "Once our product is launched, Transsion's little tricks will be exposed."
…………
On the other side, at Production Base No. 2, Factory Building No. 3.
The high-tech enhancement center and the repair center are both operating simultaneously, with a stable processing capacity of over 2 per hour.
The 128 million old mobile phones from Bird can actually be processed in just three days.
Most importantly, the repaired chips can be used to expand production capacity.
Transsion Building
"President Shen, the test results for the new batch of chips are amazing!" Chen Hai rushed in with the report in hand, unable to contain his excitement.
"Boss, we sampled 500 units, and the performance improvement wasn't accidental. Could it be...?"
"That's right, we've developed a brand-new cutting-edge technology that can improve the performance of chips, making them what we call enhanced audio transmission versions."
Chen Hai was a little stunned. How could there be such powerful black technology in the world? It had simply broken through the physical boundaries, but the facts were right there.
Before he could even wonder, a huge surprise followed. His boss had been so blunt with him about such an amazing achievement. Therefore, in his boss's mind, he had become an absolute confidant.
original……
We have to work hard now.
He suppressed his excitement and began to report another discovery.
"Boss, in addition to that, three percent of the chips have also shown signs of overclocking stability issues."
The normal MTK6225 has a maximum clock speed of 104MHz, our batch has a clock speed of 125MHz, but there is another batch of chips that can run stably at 135MHz, and the power consumption is only increased by 5% compared to the enhanced version.
Shen Fei's eyes lit up. A 20% performance increase, and a chance to find a chip with specially selected physique? It seems that the technology of this enhancement center is even more powerful than the system described.
There is a certain probability of a critical hit!
