Chapter 411: Delivery! 10 million copies sold! The development progress of Tiangong A100 chip!
April 7th, an ordinary Sunday.
At 10 a.m., Qiandu announced that it would acquire PPS for US$370 million and merge with iQiyi to strengthen its video business layout.
Half an hour later, OFO Bike disclosed its recent development status for the first time: it has put a total of 600,000 shared bicycles and 100,000 shared electric bicycles into use in East China, Central China, and South China, with monthly revenue exceeding 60 million yuan.
Immediately afterwards, Suning’s head Zhang Jindong proposed to impose taxes on online stores, which led to his being scolded by hundreds of thousands of small and medium-sized businesses and became a hot topic on the Internet.
at the same time.
The pre-sale orders for Senlian Star Card have exceeded 4 million!
The business model of Internet-oriented free-flow card has become famous in the country!
There are countless followers, like the swarm of carp swimming in the river.
After returning to Xucheng, Chen Yansen was busy with the architectural design of the server operating system, while working with Mike, Wu Shengyu and others to advance the research and development of the Tiangong A100 chip.
At the same time, Apple was also developing a 64-bit architecture mobile processor based on the Orange Z1 instruction set.
The China Science and Technology Association, HiSilicon and Tiangong Technology have not made any statement, and Apple will naturally not reveal any information to the outside world.
The processor architecture has increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, which will result in an order of magnitude improvement in data processing capabilities, higher computing efficiency, stronger memory support, and lower power consumption.
All in all, performance will be greatly improved.
From the beginning to the end, Tiangong A100 was positioned as a 64-bit architecture. In Chen Yansen's eyes, the optimization issues of CPU architecture, instruction set, and hardware structure are not difficult to solve.
As for whether Huawei, ZTE and Apple can be dealt with, he doesn't care.
After all, the Orange Z1 instruction set is only the primary version, and in the future it will be iterated into 2.0, 3.0 and even MAX versions.
Regarding baseband chips, he poached a group of people from Qualcomm and Huawei, and after initially mastering the RF and analog-to-digital conversion technologies of Balong, RF360 and WTR1625L.
Chen Yansen decisively activated the [Planck Clock] talent, because the technical barriers of this thing are much higher than CPU and GPU, and European and American semiconductor companies have built a powerful patent defense wall.
Even he had no confidence that he could bypass patent restrictions and develop a new baseband chip in a short period of time.
Therefore, his first choice is to cooperate with Huawei or Qualcomm. After owning a certain number of high-value communication patents, he can use cross-patent licensing to break through industry barriers and technological blockades in one fell swoop.
The next day, Zhou Shouzhi finally returned to Xucheng after being on a business trip for half a month.
The trip was very effective, and cooperation plans were finalized with five operators in the UK, France and Germany at one go.
Unfortunately, due to considerations of the application ecosystem, local operators do not accept Orange phones running the Aurora Future OS system.
Chen Yansen could understand but didn't take it to heart.
He believes that one day, Aurora Future OS can be launched into the global market.
A temporary failure is nothing. It takes time to change users' usage habits.
He can wait and is not in a hurry.
The following week passed quickly. Chen Yansen focused on the project during the day and studied the force, angle, speed and depth of unlocking at night. In the blink of an eye, it was April 12th.
At this time, the total sales of Star Cards have reached 8 million.
In just twelve days, Senlian Capital made the Xingyao phone card the best-selling product of the year by leveraging its omni-channel resources with over 100 million exposures in a single day.
The central warehouses and forward warehouses in Yanjing, Tianjin, Qindao, Hucheng, Jinling, Jiangcheng and Lujiang have long been filled with the first batch of Star Cards.
Early in the morning, Kuaipao's food delivery drivers and Yunsu's couriers were already online. Each of them would take 10 delivery orders, deliver the Star Cards to the customers, and then activate them by phone.
At twelve o'clock noon, when Chen Yansen was having lunch in the office, he saw netizens' sharing on Toutiao.
"The Xingyao card is awesome! I topped up 300 yuan directly, and the data outside the package is only 1 yuan per 800MB. I use it to watch Toutiao videos. I used to only be able to watch videos in 360P, but now I have to watch them in 1080P!"
Netizens in the comment section asked: "Brother, is it really so smooth?"
"Don't show off, take it easy, the speed will be limited if you exceed 40GB!"
"40GB a month, as long as you don't use the data and watch movies every day, you shouldn't be able to use it all."
"What blockbuster movie? Brother upstairs, can you lend me one to talk?"
The style of the paintings on the back floors is completely distorted, and they are all about selling movies.
Chen Yansen double-clicked the screen, took a screenshot, and then sent it to Liang Bo.
Some minor problems seem to go unattended, but they can be fatal if you take care of them.
"Okay, boss. I'll handle it right away." Liang Bo replied immediately. Although Chen Yansen only sent one picture, he could immediately understand the boss's intention.
Chen Yansen remembers very clearly that a few years later, an information APP similar to Toutiao was sent to the "315 execution platform" for condoning inappropriate advertisements such as black and gray industries.
As a result, in less than two years, the daily active users dropped from more than 60 million to more than 20 million, and the company's employees dropped from more than 7,000 to more than 1,000.
Although Senlian Capital has strong financial strength, it is generally not used as a target for legal action, but proactively blocking negative information will not do any harm to the company.
At this moment, Chen Yansen automatically ignored the headlights short videos on Mimo.
As time went by, the first batch of Star Card users enthusiastically introduced the benefits of the directional data card to netizens, relatives and classmates on Weibo, WeChat Moments and campus network.
Too much tap water!
The sales of Star Cards had originally slowed down, but with the strong recommendation of netizens, sales rose again.
At eight o'clock that evening, it officially broke through the 10 million mark!
Ye Qiuping led the project team to hold a celebration party in the conference room, so she invited Chen Yansen as well.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Chen Yansen said this with a smile on his face and a sincere tone.
Just a simple word of thanks made more than 60 people on the Star Card team excited.
They all knew that with the boss's style of doing things, the bonus would definitely not be avoided.
As expected, Chen Yansen only said five words and immediately got to the point: "For the quarterly bonus system for Q2, add 0.3 first. If the total sales volume exceeds 20 million copies before the end of June, add another 0.3, and so on. There is no upper limit."
Mr. Chen knows very well that these idiots are too lazy to listen to what he says about his project vision.
Adding money is the way to go!
Employees work hard just to get more rewards.
If he hadn't expressed it, there would be more and more people slacking off throughout the group.
“Thank you, boss!”
"Love you, boss!"
"Long live the boss!"
There were only a few dozen people, but they erupted into cheers from hundreds of people.
"It's great to have money! This is the charm of money!"
Chen Yansen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and thought to himself.
Ye Qiuping raised her hand and then pressed it down. Everyone immediately fell silent, which shows her prestige in the team.
"Next, we will have to use third-party channels to establish a more comprehensive sales network..."
Ye Qiuping spoke slowly, first reviewing and summarizing the work in early April, and then began to deploy the promotion and sales plans for mid-to-late April.
Chen Yansen left the meeting room, looked at his watch, it was exactly half past eight, and walked straight out, ready to get off work.
As soon as he walked out of the first floor lobby of Building No. 9, he heard suppressed crying coming from the corner.
Who is it?
Ghosts howling in the middle of the night?
Chen Yansen frowned slightly and walked slowly in the direction where the crying sound came from.
I saw a young man in his early twenties squatting by the fence of the park, with an Orange Payment work badge hanging around his neck.
It was pitch dark and the light was dim.
Chen Yansen suddenly asked, "Is there something wrong at home?"
Zhang Peng was startled and sat down on the ground. It was too dark and he couldn't see Chen Yansen's face clearly. He thought he was a colleague from another department, so he said unhappily, "Dude, don't you make any noise when you walk?"
"Maybe you were crying too passionately." Chen Yansen teased.
Although the other party's crying was very light and low, his hearing, even with the use of mental power to limit it, was still clear to him.
"..." Zhang Peng's face was filled with embarrassment, and he wished he could crawl into the concrete floor.
It is indeed embarrassing for a person in his twenties to cry, especially when he is discovered by his colleagues.
"Broken heart?" Chen Yansen glanced at him and asked firmly.
"Well, I guess so." Zhang Peng sat on the ground with no intention of getting up.
His idea was that it was dark and Chen Yansen wouldn't be able to see him clearly, so he wasn't afraid of losing face and just gave up completely.
Chen Yansen looked disgusted and asked casually, "Is it true? Could it be that you fell in love with a married woman?"
"No, buddy! You are too gossipy." Zhang Peng wanted to get up and slap Chen Yansen.
Chen Yansen saw what Zhang Peng was thinking and thought that this crying subordinate had a pretty bad temper.
He wanted to say: "If you want to cry, go home and don't scare your colleagues in the company."
But just as he was about to turn around, Zhang Peng started talking like pouring beans: "My girlfriend is thirty-three years old, ten years older than me. I want to marry her, but my dad says I'm crazy."
"Your dad is right." Chen Yansen stopped and comforted him gently.
"Brother, you'd better go." Zhang Peng was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe.
He suspected that the person in front of him was not an employee of Senlian Capital at all.
You know, the employees who are accepted by Senlian Capital have pretty good IQ and EQ.
Every word Chen Yansen said was heart-wrenching, like a knife stabbing him in the heart.
"It's just a joke to liven up the atmosphere. He's only ten years old. I don't think there's anything wrong with him." Chen Yansen added.
"Do you really think so?" Zhang Peng's eyes lit up and he felt much better instantly.
"I used to have a girlfriend who was eight years older than me, and I really wanted to marry her," Chen Yansen said with a slight smile.
"Before? Did you break up?" Zhang Peng asked.
"She thought I was poor, so she married a wealthy businessman from Hong Kong," Chen Yansen replied.
"Then you are worse off than me. At least my girlfriend loves me." Zhang Peng said with a chuckle.
"..." Chen Yansen forcibly controlled his right leg and avoided kicking.
"Okay, stop crying in the company. If someone doesn't know, they might think it's haunted."
Chen Yansen cursed with a dark face, then waved his hand and walked towards the parking lot.
"It's none of your business!" Zhang Peng said in a low voice. He could feel that although Chen Yansen spoke harshly, he did not have any bad intentions.
The corners of Chen Yansen's mouth twitched. He took a deep breath and secretly warned himself to mind his own business next time.
"Boss." Huang Boxiang saw Chen Yansen coming and quickly opened the car door for him.
"Go back to the Delta." Chen Yansen ordered.
After Old Huang took office, Xiao Li also had some time to rest, and the two of them took turns on duty, which made things a lot more relaxed.
"Okay." Huang Boxiang cherishes this job very much. Under Xiao Li's advice, he knows the importance of speaking less and keeping his mouth shut, so he tries not to speak as much as possible.
at the same time.
Senlian Xingyao Card synchronized the sales progress on its official Weibo account. In just twelve days, a total of 10 million phone cards were sold, which really shocked the three major operators.
After Penguin and Ali found out, they immediately felt that they had copied the right thing!
Wang Xin hid in his office at Meituan’s headquarters, without eating a meal for the whole day. He looked at the group buying industry’s March report with a worried look on his face.
