Technological Supremacy Chapter 68: There is no myth in this world
In any case, Luo Jia has been laying out the layout since the beginning of July. This huge chessboard was finally officially laid out in September.
Walking out of the 2012 laboratory, Luo Jia lit a cigarette in the parking lot.
An Ran didn't like Luo Jia's bad habit of smoking very much. He fanned the wind with his hand, frowned and said, "If you take this step, you will never be able to take it back. Mr. Ren has already promised, and he will contact all the giants as soon as possible. The people in charge will gather in Shanghai tomorrow.”
"It's not easy to develop a new display technology, is it really going to be used by other manufacturers?"
Luo Jia smiled and asked An Ran, "Do you think the Big Four have higher profits, or ours?"
An Ran was slightly taken aback, and immediately understood Luo Jia's meaning, "Probably about the same, the Big Four use our mobile phone assistants, our cameras, and our wireless charging, all added up, every time they sell a mobile phone, We can take away a net profit of more than 100 yuan."
"The sales volume of the Big Four may reach 900 million units this year, that is to say, we will make a net profit of 100 billion yuan from the Big Four."
"But if we count the display screen, we can take another 100 yuan in net profit from each mobile phone produced by the Big Four, so our profit should be higher than theirs."
Luo Jia nodded, and said lightly, "The mobile phone industry is actually glamorous on the surface. Marketing costs money, stores cost money, and mass production will squeeze a lot of liquidity."
"Most of the profits are taken away by the core suppliers. We also make money. We make more money than the Big Four, and we have become good friends with them. Isn't this the best business in the world?"
"And do you think, to this extent, I'm really just here to make money?"
An Ran laughed.
When a person has no money, money is the most important thing.
But at Luo Jia's level, if he is still thinking about making money, it would be too vulgar. After all, there are still ideals, what if they come true.
...
The torrent of the times is advancing irresistibly.
On the second day, under the convening of President Ren of Huawei, the four giants in the mobile phone industry, the top six in the display industry, and the eight powerful players in the TV industry gathered in Shanghai.
When Luo Jia walked into this meeting room, what he saw were bigwigs in the industry. They were flipping through Luo Jia's star magazine, their eyes full of shock.
In fact, most of them can't understand professional academic journals like Xingchen, but this doesn't mean they don't know the value of Xingchen.
Mr. Ren came from Shenzhen overnight. He took Luo Jia to shake hands with everyone, expressing his appreciation to Luo Jia without hesitation.
"Since everyone is already acquainted, let's start right away." Mr. Ren said, "Luo Jia, tell us your thoughts from beginning to end."
Luo Jia smiled and walked up to the front desk.
Maybe he can't change his habit of occasionally saying bad things. When Luo Jia opened his mouth, he made everyone laugh.
"Actually, we are still missing an important guest today. Someone didn't want to come. How should I put it, he and we may really have different paths." Luo Jia said.
The bosses smiled knowingly. They naturally knew who Luo Jia was talking about, but everyone is a person of status, so it's good to understand, and it's meaningless to tell the truth.
"Next, please look at the big screen."
Luo Jia became serious. He seemed to be a different person suddenly. He was no longer the young man who occasionally said bad things. When he saw his seniors, he always used his young age as a shield. Everyone sits on an equal footing and guides the technological elites in the country.
The screen flickered, and a list appeared, a ranking list of the top 15 global display panels.
"Currently, in the display panel industry, Samsung occupies a 17.6% share, taking the lead."
"The second place is BOE, with a market share of 17.1%, which is only 0.5 percentage points behind Samsung. If there is no accident, by the end of this year, BOE will be able to surpass Samsung. No. 1 in the world.”
The bosses applauded lightly, while the boss of BOE waved his hand, signaling that everyone should not be flattered. The number one output does not mean that the profit and technology are also the number one. In terms of money making and technical capabilities, BOE is still no match for Samsung.
The conversation suddenly changed, and Luo Jia said, "However, everyone, please note that LG ranks third in the world, Neon JDI ranks fourth, and PCT ranks fifth, all of which are overseas companies."
"What does this mean?"
Mr. Lei of Xiaomi, in his non-standard Mandarin, "It shows that we are not strong enough in the display industry. Although there are six companies that have entered the top 15 in the world, except for BOE, they are all in the middle and lower reaches. Location."
When the other bigwigs heard the words, they all agreed.
But unexpectedly, Luo Jia's next words stunned everyone.
"It is true that my country's display panel companies are not strong enough, but what I want to talk about is not this problem. Haven't you noticed? In the list of the top 15 global panel companies, there is only one neon company?"
"There used to be a Sharp in the Neon Country, but Sharp has been acquired by Foxconn, so the only seedling in the Neon Country is JDI."
"I remember when I was a child, there were many TVs made in the Neon country, such as Sony, Panasonic, Sharp, etc., at home and in neighbors' homes. Those TVs were awesome, and there were many domestic TVs. , imported from Neon Country.”
"However, unknowingly, there are fewer and fewer TVs and panels in the Neon Country on the market. Finally, in the past two years, only the JDI family is left alive."
"What does this mean?"
"It shows that in the world of science and technology, there is no myth at all, and there is no invincible enterprise!"
"The panel industry in Neon Country was absolutely No. 1 in the world."
"But now they have been killed, and they have been driven out of the market by South Korea, my country, and their counterparts in the Gulf of my country province!"
Luo Jia paused, "This is what I want to talk about today."
"In the past, when we looked at Sharp, Panasonic and Sony, we thought they were gods and invincible, just like we look at the two giants in South Korea, LG and Samsung today."
"So ~IndoMTL.com~ we should have confidence in the future. If the Koreans were able to kill the Neon counterparts back then, we will be able to do the same in the future and kill the Korean counterparts."
Luo Jia's thinking angle is very tricky!
All the bosses were stunned. It turns out that he took out this ranking list not to point out the shortcomings of domestic panels, but to tell everyone that all giants can be killed.
After a pause, Luo Jia continued, "Let's look at the TV industry again."
The screen was refreshed again, and a list of the world's top 15 TV companies appeared.
Samsung and LG rank the top two, with shipments of 40 million and 32 million units respectively, while TCL, which ranks third, only ships 15 million units, and Hisense, which ranks fourth, is Twelve million units.
It is worth mentioning that in this list, there is a strange name, Philips AOC.
AOC refers to my country's TPV, and the Philips TV trademark has been authorized to TPV, so the Philips TVs bought on the market are actually domestic products.
Similarly, Hisense operates the Sharp brand in North America. Outside of North America, the operator of the Sharp brand is Foxconn, and Hisense also operates the neon brand Toshiba.
All in all, domestic manufacturers are actually much smarter than many consumers imagined, and many industry changes have already been completed unconsciously.
For example, sportswear and sneakers seem to be very popular recently, but the real owner of this Italian brand is actually Anta.
Luo Jia gave a brief introduction to the industry in a very witty language, and then his eyes swept over the faces of the bosses present. It seemed that everyone was very focused.
"The reason why I invited you here today is because I have something that I want to show you." Luo Jia said, waving to the outside of the meeting room.
