    Touch screen: Including the overall touch screen, microcontroller and other system modules, the overall performance exceeds 12% of the existing touch screen. The price is 38 US dollars. The performance can be improved by more than 10% per year, but followed by 5% per year.  Price increases.

    LCD panel: Made of tft-led material, the performance exceeds 10% of the existing LCD panel, and the price is 50 US dollars. The same performance can be improved by more than 10% per year, and the corresponding price increase is 5% per year.

    ??Flash memory chip: Dynamic DRAM upgrade to 1GB, the price is only 23 US dollars, 16GB of NAND is quoted at 26 US dollars, 32GB is quoted at 50 US dollars, and 64GB is quoted at 102 US dollars.

    Camera: 5 million pixels, thickness, price USD each.

    Tempered glass: The performance is similar to Corning's Gorilla, but the price has dropped to $4, a full 20% reduction.

    ? Okay.

    ??Except for CPUs, GPUs, wireless chips and battery packs that they are not good at, LG has almost everything they can do, and the prices are very attractive, which has reduced the average cost of Xiao Qi's dreampad by at least 10%!

    No wonder Quan Zhenguang looks confident. It seems that their LG intelligence department is also very powerful. The understanding and exploration of dreampad parts are basically accurate.

    However, Xiao Qi had his own plans.

    Although finding more suppliers is one of Xiao Qi's most important tasks in the near future, it does not mean that he is willing to rely so heavily on one supplier.

    It is very dangerous for any one supplier to occupy half of a product. This is also the reason why the theory of "don't put all your eggs in the same basket" is popular in foreign countries.

    Suppliers can only become suppliers.  They should not be allowed to play a greater role, which in turn affects the normal production and marketing of products.

    So even though LG¡¯s products have the double temptation of quality and price, Xiao Qi only chose three items to discuss: camera, touch screen, and flash memory chip.

    Cameras and touch screens are LG¡¯s most proud technologies, and they are what Xiao Qi really urgently needs to join the supplier camp, but flash memory chips are different.  Most of them are due to the consideration of monopolizing the market.

    As early as the year before last, in 2005, Apple's COO Tim Cook signed long-term supply contracts for DRAM and NAND chips with South Korea's Samsung and Hynix at a high price of 100 million U.S. dollars, almost monopolizing the two companies.  of production capacity.

    This is why Xiao Qi went to order flash memory chips last time.  The reason why Samsung can only squeeze out some NAND chips, and they are of large capacity, but cannot sell the rest of DRAM and NAND chips to Xiao Qi.

    Why has iPad been popular for three or four years in the previous life, but still no one can shake their status?

    Even companies such as iPhone, Samsung and HTC, which have higher technological content, are catching up!

    A big part of the reason.  It is precisely because Apple has almost monopolized 70% of high-end flash memory chips on the market. Other companies have no way to find the production capacity of this key component. Samsung barely squeezed out some production capacity with its strong strength and developed into  Tablet computers are second, but they only have a small share in the East Asian market.

    Originally, Apple would have repeated its old tricks in 2009 and once again signed long-term supply contracts with Toshiba and Bilda.  This completely completed the layout of monopolizing flash memory chips, but Xiao Qi was ahead of them, taking Toshiba's NAND flash memory chips and Bilda's dynamic DRAM first, and already gained a step.

    Now if Xiao Qi continues to take advantage of LG's production capacity, I am afraid that 90% of high-end flash memory chips will be monopolized by Fairy and Apple. The rest of the companies that want to enter smart tablets will only be disappointed.  But there is no way to catch up.

    LG deliberately wanted to please Xiao Qi by supplying parts and components, thereby slowly gaining access to the smart era, so Quan Zhenguang was sent as the decision-maker of LG¡¯s electronics and electrical appliances department.  You have the right to make decisions yourself.

    Xiao Qi sincerely wanted to buy parts, so the two parties just spent a whole morning and basically reached an agreement.

    The price of the entire module for a touch screen suitable for DreamPad size is US$36

    The price of 1GB of dynamic DRAM memory is US$22, the price of 16GB of NAND is US$28, and the price of 32GB is US$48.  64GB is $100.

    A 5-megapixel camera with a thickness of 1.5 million pixels and a price of US$100 per unit will increase by 1 million pixels per year while the price will remain the same.

    The three categories of first-level components are all under five-year contracts. Among them, the three types of flash memory and touch screens are 30 million sets per year. The cameras are one each at the front and rear, so the number is 60 million sets per year.

    Basically, Xiao Qi signs contracts with suppliers for a period of about five years, and the number is only about 30 million units.

    The reason is that five years later, Fairy CompanyIt will be stronger and they will no longer need long-term contracts to protect their own interests. At that time, they should be the ones asking Xiao Qi to sign a long-term contract.

    The problem of booking the number of sets is simpler. For example, last month, Xiao Qi easily increased the number of orders.

    When most of the production capacity is occupied by Fairy Company, suppliers will naturally be willing to continue cooperation with familiar partners rather than selling a small amount of expanded production capacity to others.

    When the contract was signed, the happiest person was not Xiao Qi, but a group of LG executives.

    On the surface, LG¡¯s net profit from this order may not exceed 5%, but business should not only be based on the current economic accounts.

    After the success of the LG Chocolate mobile phone back then, LG actively followed Samsung and developed its own mobile phones. Now it seems that smartphones are an absolutely inevitable trend. There is no way LG can fall behind.  Even if they are making money, they still have to pay this necessary cost.

    In the long run, LG Corporation, which has received a huge amount of support, can use this order to improve its technical capabilities and production capabilities, and lay a solid foundation for future expansion in the smart electronics era.

    Then, South Korea has implemented an incentive policy for such large export orders. Taxes have been reduced a lot, and subsidies will be provided in other aspects. In total, the entire LG will benefit.

    So, no one who does business, especially such a large multinational group, is a fool. They all have their own plans!  (To be continued.
