Shockingly, a counterfeit factory has produced a 3-nanometer chip.

Chapter 249 Internal Strife Continues, Using Others to Kill

"Mr. Li, after my persuasion, our boss has agreed."

However, each screen costs 868 yuan.

"Mr. Liu, this price..." Li Qinghua frowned instantly.

He had specifically communicated with Lenovo beforehand, and besides obtaining a batch of samples, the key point was the price.

Even Lenovo got the price of 742 yuan, not to mention the others, but the price actually increased by more than 10% when it came to them.

"Mr. Li, do you think it's expensive?" Liu Fang looked at him. "How much cheaper is it than the 'top-of-the-line' OLED screen that Sansang showed you?"

Li Qinghua opened his mouth but didn't say anything.

Especially the word "top-tier," which left him completely speechless.

"Our screen display is the best in the world, and its anti-burn-in capability is unparalleled. If burn-in occurs, we will replace it free of charge within the warranty period."

You won't find another place like it anywhere else in the world that offers this quality, this price, and this service.

Just when Li Qinghua thought Liu Fang was going to use her skills to persuade him, the other party suddenly changed her tone.

"Besides, Mr. Li, we are all smart people."

If you want to use us as arrows, you should at least pay some compensation for your efforts, right?

None of us are fools. Making things clearer is more beneficial for the negotiations, right?

Li Qinghua awkwardly tugged at the corners of his mouth and gave a dry laugh.

He didn't expect Liu Fang to be so direct. It seemed he couldn't pretend to be confused anymore, so he reached out his hand.

"make a deal."

Liu Fang took his hand.

"It's a pleasure working with you."

After the contract was signed, Li Qinghua stopped pretending.

"President Shen, you are the only Chinese company that makes us bow down."

He looked up at the doorway and saw that Shen Fei had already entered the conference room at some point.

"Mr. Li, this is not about bowing down, it's about cooperation."

Li Qinghua shook his head.

"No, this is bowing down." His voice was full of honesty. "Sansang has been in the mobile phone industry for 20 years and has never purchased core components from Chinese companies."

You are the first.

He gave another wry smile.

"Although I have my own agenda, I have to be responsible for the mobile phone business, and I can't just procure any parts."

Furthermore, if we want Mr. Li to avoid taking responsibility, the technology absolutely needs to be reliable.

Shen Fei looked at him without saying anything; this man was quite frank.

At least he's more honest than Lei Jun.

[Lei: You're slandering me again.]

"I have a feeling that this is not the last time, and we may have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, but I hope this is just a terrible fantasy in my mind."

But reason tells me that in the future, your screens, chips, sensors, and flash memory will be purchased by the whole world.

"Sansang Fruits, all mobile phone manufacturers will bow down to you."

Shen Fei made no attempt to conceal the result; he simply nodded, indicating that he also believed it.

Upon seeing this, Li Qinghua showed a relieved expression; as expected.

"Mr. Shen, may I ask you a question?"

"What is your goal?"

This question stumped him; he never expected that the first person to ask him such a question would be someone from San Sang.

"Then the Chinese people will be able to use the best products."

"Is that all? Don't you have any other goals?"

That's all.

Li Qinghua scrutinized the answer for a long time, then gave an awkward laugh. He absolutely refused to believe it, given Transsion's extensive global network, all pointing in the same direction.

He picked up his briefcase, glanced at the other two, and prepared to leave, but stopped at the door.

"Mr. Shen, the agreement has been signed, and the deposit has been received. But there's something I need to remind you of."

"What is it?"

"San Sang shows they won't let this go. They already knew you were stealing their customers, and now that even we've sided with them, they'll definitely retaliate."

It could be a price reduction, a patent lawsuit, or even patent theft.

"Get ready."

Shen Fei nodded: "Thank you for the reminder."

Then Shen Fei nodded silently, whether he was trying to lull people into a false sense of security or something else entirely. But he was definitely more sincere than Lei Jun.

Lei Jun: How much have you stolen from me, and you still advise me to be sincere?

"Liu Fang, how do you think San Sang will retaliate?"

After they walked away, Shen Fei gave Liu Fang a test.

He didn't look in Liu Fang's direction; he was just staring at the newly signed contract.

Each screen costs 868 yuan, and each sensor costs 342 yuan.

The total price of 500 million screens is 43.4 billion, and the price of sensors is 17.1 billion.

The cost of using someone else to do the dirty work is probably around one billion.

Liu Fang also looked at the contract and thought for a while.

"They started lowering prices at the beginning of the year, trying to kill us with a price war."

No one asked what to do, after all, Huaxing's costs were lower and their technology was better. Sansang's methods of bullying the weak were ineffective against them.

On the contrary, if Transsion lowers its prices, Sansheng Panel will definitely be the one to suffer.

That evening, Kwon Oh-hyun stared at the procurement contract, his face flickering like a traffic light on the street.

What is the mobile phone business unit doing?

Purchasing core components from competitors is betrayal. I need to see General Manager Li…”

Secretary Su Lin anxiously reported to the leader: "President Quan, the mobile phone business department... they are making false accusations first, saying that they were forced into this situation."

Our screens are too expensive, and their quality isn't as good as Transsion's.

"How about?"

The other party had already made a false accusation, so Kwon Oh-hyun immediately stopped in his tracks, slammed his hand on the table, and said with great confidence, "Our screens are number one in the world! What's inferior to ours?"

Secretary Su Lin dared not utter a word.

Kwon Oh-hyun stood up and paced back and forth in the office.

He knew the mobile phone business department was telling the truth: Transsion's screen quality was better than Samsung's, and the price was cheaper.

If Samsung doesn't lower its prices, its mobile phone business will become increasingly reliant on Transsion.

However, if prices are lowered further, profits will shrink significantly. After all, the price of OLED screens has already dropped by 30% compared to last year, and if prices continue to fall, it may really result in losses.

This is a dilemma.

"Notify the planning department." Kwon Oh-hyun paused. "Study price reduction plans and new product technology plans."

We must catch up with the OLED screen technology used in audio equipment, and the technical department should dedicate all its efforts to finding a solution superior to the diamond pixel arrangement.

Su Lin did not immediately notify them.

"Mr. Quan, if we lower our prices to the same level as them, we still won't be able to compete. Our prices must be lower than theirs."

But if we drop to the same level, we'll lose money.

"I know." Kwon Oh-hyun ignored his advice. "If we don't lower the price, we'll lose not only Xie Huaguo's customers, but also our own mobile phone business and Apple business."

"At that time, the telepathic communication will become Sansang's true opponent, or it will dethrone us from our pedestal."

He sat back down in his chair.

"We cannot afford to lose this battle."

But just then, Lee Geon-hee's secretary knocked on the door, his tone very serious, even carrying a hint of retribution.

"President Quan, President Li wants you to go to his office."
