Chapter 87 Contact Gu Ge (Ch 828344390)

Now that TSMC has accepted the cooperation order, there are only two things that Brilliance Semiconductor needs to consider doing.
The first thing is to contact Google as much as possible to obtain the system underlying architecture package of the special security door.
Then the processor chip designed by the company itself will be fully integrated into the architecture package, and finally the company’s own processor chip will be fully compatible with the Android system.
After all, if adaptation is not carried out, the processor chips produced by the company will not be able to meet the manufacturer’s requirements in terms of adaptation level, and it will be difficult to sell them at that time.
Another thing is to consider how many mobile processor chips to produce.
It is best for companies to place orders as far in advance as possible now, so that the designed and produced processor chips can be successfully launched on the market.
As for how many chips should be produced, considering the current reputation of Huateng Semiconductor in the industry, Chen Tong knew that restraint was needed in production.
Huateng Semiconductor is just a fledgling chip design company, and its popularity is too low compared to other chip brands.
After some thought, Chen Tong finally made a decision.
The wafer order volume for the HT2018A chip is 5,000 pieces, and by then, the number of mobile processor chips that can be obtained through cutting will be close to 8 million pieces.
As for the HT2018B mobile processor chip for the terminal market, the number of wafer orders is five times that of the flagship processor chip, 25,000 wafers.
Chen Tong has made plans for the development of Huateng Semiconductor in the next two years.
First, gradually occupy the mid- and low-end markets, then slowly and steadily layout the high-end market, and finally gradually gain a firm foothold in the chip market.
Soon, Huateng Semiconductor signed the relevant order contract with TSMC.
After paying the relevant fees, TSMC also gave a guarantee.
We will definitely deliver the goods to Huateng Semiconductor in time within the next six months.
After resolving the order contract issues.
Chen Tong couldn’t wait to contact his old acquaintance Bit Luo Fei!
Luo Fei is a friend Chen Tong met at the MIX conference.
During these few years, Chen Tong kept in touch with Luo Fei at all times.
Almost a year and a half has passed, and Luo Fei, who used to be the deputy director of the programming department of Google Software, has been promoted to the director of the programming department.
“Chen Tong, you can let me take charge of this matter…”
Luo Fei on the other end of the phone seemed to have just woken up. After listening to Chen Tong’s request, he readily agreed to Chen Tong’s request.
Although this matter is very important to the Huateng Semiconductor incident, it is just a small matter for GuGe Company.
As one of the most well-known software technology companies in the world, the number of companies cooperating with it is only increasing.
There is Luo Fei as the matchmaker, and purchasing the corresponding software underlying package requires a certain amount of money.
As the charging party, Google should be happy to cooperate with Huateng Semiconductor.
After all, if you don’t make money, you’re a bastard!
Not to mention these profit-first capital companies!
In less than three days, Luo Fei called Chen Tong in response.
At the same time, the cost of cooperation between the two parties was also proposed!
This time there are three different types of cooperation.
The first is primary cooperation, which will open up a large number of interfaces of the system’s underlying architecture to facilitate the connection of new mobile processor chips to the Android system.
The fee for this type of cooperation is 10 million Beautiful Coins every five years.
The second cooperation model is based on the first cooperation model. GuGe Company will immediately hand over the latest underlying installation package of the system to the partner for in-depth coordination.
And opening more interfaces will make it easier for processor chips to achieve more functional experiences in the original Android system.
Of course, this charging model charges an additional one million beautiful coins per year in addition to the original first charging model.
As for the last deep cooperation mode, it provides special patches in the future based on the two cooperation modes, and at the same time grants more underlying permissions for the open system architecture.
The charges for the third cooperation model are based on the first two models. The subsequent related patch packages will be charged at 500,000 beautiful coins per year and will last for up to five years.
Of course, if you want to open more special permissions at the bottom of the system, you will need to pay different fees according to different services.
Chen Tong looked at the cooperation model provided by GuGe Company and began to gradually think about it in his mind.
At present, the cooperation between Gaotong, Lianfa Ge and Gu Ge companies is basically the third type of cooperation.
It’s just that the revenue and cooperation models adopted by the two companies are completely different.
Gaotong will basically spend more money to activate the Android system, which has more low-level special permissions to ensure more functionality and system adaptability of the processor chip.
At the same time, in terms of subsequent patches, Gaotong will basically patch the system for 3 to 4 years at a time, and the costs are basically included in the price of chip sales.
MediaTek spends much less money, and generally buys very few books for the underlying permissions. As for the subsequent purchase of patches, they usually buy patches for 1 to 2 years.
Of course, mobile phone manufacturers purchase the most basic chips. If they want to obtain more low-level permissions and more subsequent patches, they need to pay for themselves and work with MediaTek to purchase customization.
This is one of the main reasons why most Fire Dragon processor chips on the market have a longer maintenance cycle, while MediaTek processors have a shorter maintenance cycle.
After all, in order to save costs, many mobile phone manufacturers naturally will not consider spending money to purchase more system services and subsequent patch packages.
However, after the rise of MediaTek, some mobile phone manufacturers wanted to make MediaTek chips more durable and comfortable to use.
I will deliberately cooperate with MediaTek and pay to purchase more services.
As a result, many specially customized chips came out, and in the next few years, we could see many chips with suffixes in MediaTek’s processor chips.
What are Dimensity 1200AI, Dimensity 8200Ultra, Dimensity 8250, Dimensity 8350 and so on!
These chips are basically upgraded processor chips by adding some corresponding service protocols to the original chips.
“Of course we have to choose the one with the best service!”
Chen Tong considered that the company would still need to rely on the Android operating system in the next five years, so he naturally chose the best level of so-called service permissions.
After all, as long as you choose the highest level and then continuously adjust it through the software, you can make the processor chip adapt to the current mainstream Android system.
This will also make manufacturers who purchase their own company’s processor chips feel more at ease!
After all, when the mobile phone processor chip and operating system are incompatible.
At the very least, there is a high probability that many bugs will occur during the use of the mobile phone.
In severe cases, a series of problems may occur, such as problems with mobile phone performance scheduling, black screen restart, system crash, etc.
These issues have a profound impact on Huateng’s reputation.
