Age of Dreams

Taking advantage of this time, Xiao Qi continued to purchase other important but relatively small components of the tablet computer.

The first is the speaker.

A good electronic device, the speaker is a small but absolutely important component.

The various materials and processes of the speakers are very particular. If they are used casually, it is very likely that a good product will be compromised.

Imagine if everyone is very active in playing tablet games, and the sound made by the speakers is the same as the broken gongs and drums, are you still interested in playing games?

Fortunately, China has become the world's factory in recent years. Many large audio equipment companies have OEM products in China. As a result, many factories have mastered excellent technology. It is not difficult to produce excellent miniature speaker components. .

Originally, Xiao Qi wanted to find a local company in Shuchuan, but most of Huaguo’s manufacturing was in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Eastern Guangdong. Shuchuan was not proficient in speakers at all, so under Cai Guozhi’s introduction, he found a company named Fu in Suzhou Industrial Park. China's private enterprise of Tat Technology.

Although Fidelity Technology is not well-known, it used to make mobile phone speakers for Nokia and Motorola. It has been doing it for about twelve years. Their speakers are among the speaker parts of the two major mobile phone manufacturers. With a 15% share, it can be seen that their strength is still very strong.

Fidelity Technology also attached great importance to the order given by the Fairy Company. He had called several times before to communicate. When Xiao Qi made time, their general manager rushed over. And Xiao Qi confirmed the cooperation matters one by one.

For each ten-dollar speaker, the annual order quantity is 50 million. After signing the contract for five years in one breath, the general manager of Fidelity Technology and the group of people laughed from ear to ear.

Xiao Qi is indeed generous, and when discussing prices, he did not push him so hard as foreigners, so that their gross profit margin could reach about 20%.

The most important thing is that he settles in RMB. This year, the RMB appreciates every day, and if he makes US dollars, he will turn from profit to loss within a few days. It is better to settle in the domestic currency.

Xiao Qi gave enough money. Correspondingly, his requirements are not low, higher than Nokia's medium standard, but this kind of technology is already very mature in Fidelity Technology. As long as they do it seriously, they can only do better. .

The contract is still set by the American law firm, and the constraints are very strict one by one. The general manager couldn't help being secretly wary: this young man seemed to be a demanding master, and he had to do his work seriously at that time, so as not to lose face at the beginning of the cooperation, then I am really sorry for the price given by others.

In addition to the speaker, another slightly simpler is the metal shell of the tablet.

The shell of the IPAD tablet includes the back shell and the rectangular frame on the surface. They are all made of aluminum alloy, silvery white, and very beautiful.

But in fact, the technical content of the aluminum alloy shell is not high, as long as the high-precision B grade. It can already reach the standard of use.

However, Xiao Qi felt that the previous IPAD shell was too monotonous. If it is in addition to silver and white, it can be made into the seven colors of green, orange, yellow, green, red, blue and purple in the color spectrum, which seems to be more colorful.

Regardless of it, the iPad has not yet come out anyway, the teenager is the "father of the tablet", he can do whatever he wants, and others can't criticize it.

The process of adding color is not complicated. Xiao Qi, with the purpose of supporting local manufacturers, informed Yu Chengsheng before going to the capital.

Then, with the help of Li Baohong, eight aluminum alloy manufacturers in Shuchuan Province were selected. The final series of polishing, mold making, finished products, coloring, and other processes were carried out. It happened that he returned to Rongcheng and checked according to his memory. After various samples, a total of three outstanding manufacturers were selected as suppliers of IPAD aluminum alloy casings.

Xiao Qi is aware of the inferior nature of these domestic factories. When placing orders for foreign companies, they can basically make high-quality products that meet foreign requirements without urging them; but if they want to switch to domestic companies to provide products, that is Procrastination means procrastination, if it can lower quality, it lowers quality... It seems very polarized.

Therefore, when signing the contract, the teenager put forward strict requirements on product quality. If the failure rate reaches five out of ten thousand, the manufacturer will pay the most severe financial compensation.

It’s a pity that Xiao Qi’s thoughts were a bit in vain. The attitude of the three large factories that won the bid was a stubborn attitude. Obviously, they already knew Xiao Qi’s background and who was behind Xiao Qi’s support. Now that Yu Chengsheng is here, how can they move those boring thoughts?

There is a saying that is well said, the most feared is that domestic officials are serious about doing things, and this sentence can also be applied to state-owned enterprises, usually if they really do things with their heart, then relying on their strong technical reserves and personnel, Regardless of production quality and speed, it can be called the first in China.

The disassembler Xiao Qi, for a product with no technical content, such as an aluminum alloy case, can feel good or bad even with his eyes closed.

Although I don’t know which manufacturer produced the aluminum alloy shell of the IPAD in the past, as far as the dozens of shells he held in his hand, including the back shell and the square metal frame, the quality, feel and color are no better than the IPAD rear. Poor cover.

Once the whole machine is assembled and various tests and debugging are completed, at least 50 million aluminum alloy shells can be mass-produced.

Xiao Qi's control over their profits, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com is far less demanding than Qiao’s gangs. The purchase price is set at 80 yuan each. Because of the advantages of various costs, there is no exchange rate loss and freight, etc., the profits of the three large aluminum alloy manufacturers. At least 15%, enough for them to make a lot of money.

There is also a language system for tablets.

There is a big reason why Apple's products are so popular, because their products cover almost all languages. As long as you adjust to the language model of your country, you can experience Apple technology in the most familiar way. It brings fun and enjoyment, instead of adapting to other people’s culture and usage habits like the previous parallel-imported mobile phones.

The production of the language system is closely related to the fairy operating system. However, even if the fairy operating system is not fully perfected, it is just some improvements that do not involve the use of functional instructions.

Therefore, Xiao Qi has long asked hacker consultants in the United States to take out all the functional data and language instructions of the system, and thus made an operation mode and language system that can support various languages, and will eventually pass. The finished product is consistent. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
