Set top box recruitment

Huawei mobile phone surpassed Apple to become the second largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world after Samsung. Most importantly, Huawei is in a leading position in research and development, photography, communication and fast charging. Of course, I think the most important thing is Huawei's Kirin chip. From being controversial to being on an equal footing with Qualcomm Apple. With Kirin chip, Huawei's mobile phone research and development can get rid of the constraints of chip manufacturers, and the flagship chip can be laid out in low-end models. Make products more competitive.

Under the long-term monopoly of foreign manufacturers such as Texas Instruments and NXP, a strong breakthrough has completely rewritten the history of China smart TV manufacturers relying on foreign chips and monopolizing half of the domestic market;

In the field of video surveillance, it has won 70% of the global market share, helping Haikang and Dahua become duopoly in the global security market;

As the main contributor of H.265 coding and decoding technology and the industry with the most core patents, it redefines the video technology standards all over the world and lays the foundation for 4K/8K ultra-high definition video.

Huawei's extremely low-key Hisilicon created all this. In just over ten years, from a small chip factory, it has quietly become the largest semiconductor company in China. In 20 18, it surpassed AMD and squeezed into the top five chip design companies in the world.

Compared with Hayes' low-key, what is more low-key and mysterious is its head, He Tingbo. In 2004, Ren gave He Tingbo a "scary" task. This task later changed Huawei. Many years later, Ren said that Huawei insisted on making systems and chips in order to have a backup system when "others run out of food".

According to Dai Hui, a veteran of Huawei, Ren has set a goal: to recruit 2,000 people within three years and export 4 billion yuan. As a result, the first goal was completed quickly, and the second goal was in the foreseeable future.

In fact, in the first three years, Hisilicon made almost no gains except on data cards, set-top boxes and video codec chips. The core mobile phone chip made slow progress, and it was not until 2009 that the first application processor K3V 1 was released. K3 is the code name of the expansion peak, the third peak in Karakorum in mountaineering and the 12 peak in the world.

K3V 1 ended in a fiasco. After repeated trials and improvements, K3V2, which was highly anticipated by Hayes, was born from 2065438 to August 2002. Known as the world's smallest quad-core A9 processor, it was a relatively mature product at that time, with a 40nm process. The first D 1 quad-core mobile phone with K3V2 chip was nicknamed "hand warmer" by netizens because of its high calorific value. What's more, K3V2 has not been upgraded for two years, resulting in a series of mobile phones such as D2 and P6 released later, which have always used old chips.

In the market, the voice of cynicism is one after another, and the mocking voice of "Wan Nian Hai Si" is rampant. Many people even gloat: This is the result of challenging Qualcomm and Apple! In the face of overwhelming doubts from the outside world, Hayes was surprisingly quiet inside, and only the lights in the laboratory were on all night. This light is just to fight back.

At the beginning of 20 14, Hisilicon released Kirin 9 10 chip, which integrated the baseband chip and application processor in a SOC (System on Chip) for the first time. Technically, it has also been upgraded to 28 nm, which is equal to that of Qualcomm. Starting with Kirin 9 10, Hisilicon began a magnificent counterattack in the history of mobile phone chips.

The Hisilicon chip, once rejected by its own family, eventually became the second key force in Huawei's mobile phone world. From P6 to P30, and then to Mate 7 to Mate 20, Huawei mobile phones equipped with Hisilicon chips have continuously become explosions, triggering global snapping up again and again.

For this change, Hayes went through hardships and sometimes even paid the price of his life. When Kirin 9 10 was put on sale, Wang Jin, an evil R&D man who tore Qualcomm's defense line, suddenly fell into a coma and died unfortunately. In human history, there are always some people who are crazy enough to believe that they can change the world. From 1996, the first optical communication chip, He Tingbo embarked on the journey of "conquering the city lion", experiencing hardships, pain, loneliness and misunderstanding, and never changed his original intention.

Wang Jin, who died young, and countless founders of Huawei's chip industry, such as Xu Wenwei, Zheng Baoyong, Zheng Li, Gao Ji, etc., all have the belief of He Tingbo. What supports them is not the high salary envied by the outside world, but the chip they designed, which makes the world around them different bit by bit. It is this insatiable belief in changing the world that has finally made Hayes today: In the semiconductor field that outsiders think China people can't do well, we will fight our way out and make history.

My opinion: In the previous generation of Kirin 970, after the sales profits of Huawei P series and Mate series gradually exceeded the R&D cost, Huawei can deploy the flagship 970 on a mid-range mobile phone like Glory Play to make it more competitive. Moreover, the Kirin chip developed by Huawei has unique advantages in both layout and modification, such as the NPU processing unit and GPU Turbo of Kirin 970. 20 19 years, it's Kirin 980' s turn to show its talents. Glory 20 series, Huawei nova5 series, flat M6 series, etc. , are very worth looking forward to.
