Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 106



Chapter 105 Three G monopoly

After Xiao Bozhi left, Sun Xiaojing sent today’s newspaper to Meng Qian. The cooperation between Lenovo and AOL of the United States is on the news again. Since the cooperation between Lenovo and AOL of the United States on June 11, Lenovo has been promoting their cooperation website FM365, which has been called the four major portals with Sina Netease and Sohu for a while. thing.

But the decline of FM365 is also very fascinating, saying that Lenovo forgot to renew, I don’t know if things are really that simple.

In addition, a very popular news topic in China recently is 3G. Although Huaxia did not issue 3G licenses until 2009, the research and discussion on 3G actually started in 2000.

For various reasons, 3G research has been in deep trouble. Therefore, in 2001, China Xia proposed the 2.5G concept, which also invested a lot of human and financial resources.

From the perspective of the entire network construction, whether it is the Internet or mobile communications, the development of China Xia is not too late. Since 2000, it has always been an important strategic direction. The key is still limited, and it is a bit helpless.

In this life, Meng Qian has not thought of any good intervention in the direction of broadband development, but in mobile communications, Meng Qian must intervene at all costs because of an extremely important reason…Qualcomm.

There is a saying in the communications industry that teamfights can be lost, but Qualcomm must die!

Qualcomm, known as the first rogue company in history.

Many people may not particularly understand the development history of Qualcomm. In fact, in the 2G era, Qualcomm is a younger brother in the communications field.

In the 2G era, GSM was the mainstream standard in the entire communications field, and Qualcomm chose to take a gamble and put R&D costs on CDMA. However, at that time, CDMA could not compete with GSM at all, and Qualcomm almost went bankrupt.

Until Qualcomm’s first savior appeared, Korea. Gao Liguo didn’t know what he thought at the time. When the world was not optimistic about CDMA, he actually chose to cooperate with Qualcomm and pulled Qualcomm back from the brink of death. As a result, this pull pulled out a super Big hooligan.

After 2000, the 3G era started, and the advantages of CDMA appeared. At this time, Europe and the neon countries realized the problem. In order not to be restricted by Qualcomm, they formed a 3GPP organization and launched W-CDMA to take advantage of long-term base station advantages and Patent innovation as much as possible, I want to build my own core technology in the 3G era.

But they underestimated Qualcomm’s patent barriers. Qualcomm’s CDMA field is from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside, from true to false. As long as they can apply for a patent, they all apply for a patent. No matter how it goes around, W-CDMA. Because the underlying technology cannot circumvent CDMA, it means that it cannot circumvent Qualcomm’s patent barriers.

As for the TD-SCDMA technology led by China during the same period, the same situation is true. In the 3G era, no one wants to break away from the bottom layer of CDMA, and no one wants to break away from Qualcomm.

Later generations of Meng Qian visited the Qualcomm headquarters once. There is a super famous wall in the Qualcomm headquarters in San Diego, California, called PatentWall, Qualcomm Patent Wall, on which there are more than 1,000 mobile communication patents.

However, when 3G first came out, Qualcomm was actually not so awesome. After all, Europe and the neon countries have ruled in this field for so many years. In order to suppress Qualcomm, they even considered abandoning the better signal CDMA and continue to work in GSM. Build a 3G technology based on technology.

Then Qualcomm’s second savior appeared, the smartphone.

The rapid development of smart phones has made the advantages of CDMA more and more obvious. The investment in GSM technology in Europe and the neon countries has also been in vain. With the development of the era of smart phones, Qualcomm has officially become the overlord in this field.

From then on, he began to play hooligans.

What everyone is most familiar with is the Qualcomm tax. If your mobile phone uses his baseband, he will charge you 5% of the tax. The unreasonable part is that he charges 5% of the price of the whole machine.

For example, if you put a diamond on your phone and sell it for 1 million, he will charge 50,000…

However, Qualcomm tax is only a part of Qualcomm’s entire rogue map, so in order to better play rogue, Qualcomm did a very interesting thing. He created Qualcomm’s strongest lawyer team.

There is a saying in the industry that Qualcomm’s most powerful department is not the R&D department, but the legal department.

This sounds like a joke, but in fact it is not a joke. Qualcomm can spend tens of billions in the Ministry of Justice every year. From another perspective, the history of Qualcomm is a history of litigation.

Therefore, Meng Qian, who is always thinking of relying on smartphones to open up the situation, must not allow Qualcomm to continue to dominate in this life. At that time, he will help Qualcomm to monopolize his own smartphones. Finally, he will face the Qualcomm tax of Qualcomm rogues. It is not nonsense to bear the risk of banning sales from Qualcomm at any time with the baseband neck.

However, the success and even monopoly of Qualcomm and Asim has repeatedly explained one thing. A successful direction can really change the entire industry structure, but the premise is that in fields like mobile communications, this technical direction needs to be mastered by competent personnel. in.

Otherwise, just like Qualcomm, which was almost out of the 4G era, it was through the strategy of acquiring Flarioen to hold the city. If Flarioen is strong enough, why go to Qualcomm.

Obviously, the current Dafeng Technology Innovation has no foundation in the field of mobile communications. Such an industry that requires a huge technological layout cannot be achieved by Meng Qian from scratch in a few years. Therefore, his current goal is It has been warmed up for a long time and will be held at the communications conference at the end of the year.

For himself, he only needs to arrange one thing first…

On Monday, July 2, 2001, Dafeng Technology Co., Ltd. ushered in a wave of blood transfusions for its employees.

The company has recruited a large number of college students and graduate students who have just graduated. In addition, the first training and internship class of Dafeng Science & Technology Co., Ltd. is mainly aimed at summer internships for college students and graduate students.

At the same time, Xiao Bozhi helped the company dig two development teams.

However, most of the graduates recruited by Dafeng Science and Technology, whether they are college students or postgraduates, are not from top universities, and mainly two books and relatively ordinary one.

The only students from top universities are basically from the Shanghai Optoelectronics Department.

This is the reason why some people don’t understand why Meng Qian cares about Jiang Da. From the perspective of Meng Qian’s personal achievements, it is indeed considered a success. However, in the eyes of high-level talents from real institutions of higher learning, they will recognize Meng Qian’s abilities but not The company that yearns for Meng Qian.

What they yearn for is to go to an Ivy League university for further study. They yearn for IBM, Oracle, Microsoft, and Intel.

Even those who plan to return to China after further studies, they yearn for the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Gale Technology Innovation? In the eyes of ordinary people, a company that is very good, in the eyes of real talents, at least for now, it is still not visible and has not seen the scientific research ability and scientific research foundation.

Although it is said that after I become bigger and stronger, talents will come, but because I have not become bigger and stronger, talents are needed even more.

With this batch of fresh blood, Dafeng Techchuang now has a total of 358 employees without counting the number of employees in Shanghai Microelectronics, plus the first batch of 35 training and internships. After negotiating with the property owner in advance, Sun Xiaojing successfully helped the company rent a whole floor of office space to facilitate the company’s employees to move around.

At the same time, Meng Qian asked Sun Xiaojing to find a suitable place and prepare to build a building by himself.

After starting to add personnel, Meng Qian adjusted the company’s organizational structure again.

The original project team was renamed to the Development Department.

On the basis of the original game development department, instant messaging development department and commercial software development department, industrial software development department, application software development department, system development department and mobile communication development department are added. At the same time, maintenance center and security are indispensable. center.

And of the two teams that Xiao Boshi helped Meng Qian dig this time, one of them is engaged in mobile communication research. After the establishment of the mobile communication development department, their work is one thing, integrating all the strengths to study OFDM technology, MIMO technology, and downlink. Power control technology, Meng Qian’s goal, refers directly to LTE and 4G.

The domestic 3G license was issued in 2009, and the 4G license was issued in 13 years, which is only 4 years. Since the 3G era has been monopolized by Qualcomm.

The only thing Meng Qian can bet on is to see if these domestic telecom companies can have the courage and ability, and if Meng Qian has clear directions, he will deploy 4G in advance.

Isn’t Qualcomm a monopoly in the 3G field?

I just skip you and engage in 4G…
