Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 118: The eighth generation flexible LCD screen R&D and manufacturing center!

Views:

The effect of the test that Jiang Cheng had imagined finally came to fruition after a short while.

As the world was discussing the huge impact that Emerald Island's technology would have on Samsung Electronics, Samsung Electronics responded with just two words on their official account: "Arrogance!"

Obviously, they don't believe in Emerald Island's technology at all!

As a technology company that has been deeply involved in the display field for more than a decade, Samsung has the confidence. In fact, they have also begun researching flexible technology in recent years.

However, it is not difficult to bend the screen. The real difficulty lies in that repeated bending of the screen will have a significant impact on the display performance of the mobile phone. This is why flexible screens have not been widely used.

Samsung could not believe that Emerald Island, which had never made any impact in this field, was planning to produce an ultra-flexible screen with memory function.

Jiang Cheng obviously saw Samsung's response on the Internet, but in response to the other party's provocative words, he could only shake his head in silence.

"It seems that the other party really has a short memory."

Jiang Cheng did not intend to respond to this. He did not have time to engage in a war of words with Samsung. The most important thing now was to build a factory to produce flexible screens.

He opened the Tycoon construction system and called out the black-tech factory module. After a while of searching, a magnificent bubble-like building appeared before his eyes, making Jiang Cheng's eyes light up!

[Name]: Eighth-generation flexible LCD screen R&D and manufacturing center!

[Parameters]: R&D center X1, mask process workshop X1, vacuum evaporation workshop X1, cutting processing workshop X1, packaging workshop X1, other supporting facilities X1

Area: 5.6 square kilometers

Cost: US$4.2 billion

[Time]: 60 days

"put up!"

Without any hesitation, Jiang Cheng directly pressed the construction button and placed it in the Future Technology Industrial Park in the north of Laputa City.

Today, the Future Science and Technology Industrial Park has grown to a considerable scale. It houses Emerald Island’s most cutting-edge technology research and development centers and has gathered a large number of high-tech talents.

Most of the technical talents who immigrated to Emerald Island work here, supplying the most advanced technological products to Emerald Island and the world.

Watching the LCD factory enter the construction phase, Jiang Cheng prepared to continue his plan to destroy Samsung Electronics.

The emergence of flexible LCD screens will inevitably have an impact on the entire industry, but this alone is not enough to cause serious damage to Samsung Electronics.

Jiang Cheng knew that in the field of smart phones, Samsung's sales volume had always been the largest, and even Apple could not compete with it. Moreover, no matter how many mobile phone manufacturers rose and fell over the years, Samsung phones had always firmly occupied the first place.

This also shows from another perspective how powerful Samsung Electronics is.

If Jiang Cheng wants to defeat an opponent that has sufficient strength in every aspect of mobile phone production, it is really beyond his ability to do it alone.

Therefore, the best way is to cooperate with Samsung's rivals.

Presumably, the world's major mobile phone manufacturers, which have always been suppressed by Samsung, would be happy to see the fall of this giant Samsung.

On the Internet, discussions about smart ultra-flexible LCD screens are still in full swing.

Among them, many people have confidence in the technological strength of Emerald Island. Of course, there are also some doubts. But no matter what, as soon as this news came out, major manufacturers in the field of smartphones have already taken action.

The mobile phone screen, as the most intuitive display part of a smartphone, can be said to have the greatest visual impact. In addition, the strength of its display function also affects the user experience of the phone.

A smartphone equipped with a powerful core processor will not be able to exert its powerful functions if it does not have a powerful LCD display.

Therefore, the LCD screen can definitely be regarded as the core part of a smartphone. In terms of customer usage, its importance is no less than that of the core processor.

That is why, when major mobile phone manufacturers heard that a new generation of LCD display technology was about to be released, they couldn’t sit still!

If they can be the first to produce mobile phones equipped with this new type of screen, they will surely be able to grab a large market share.

You know, after nearly a decade of rapid development, today's smartphone industry has begun to encounter the problem of lack of innovation. Although major manufacturers have racked their brains to develop some functions that meet user needs, they often have little success.

A big reason for this is that the pace of mobile phone hardware upgrades has slowed down.

Without a strong hardware system support, it is impossible to create functions that can satisfy users. All major mobile phone manufacturers are very clear about this.

However, the update and replacement of hardware systems is generally relatively slow.

In recent years, as the market has gradually become saturated, major mobile phone manufacturers have increasingly felt that their business operations are being constrained. If this continues, they will sooner or later be reshuffled and eventually become victims of the tide of the times.

In this context, it is conceivable what kind of surprises the birth of the new generation of flexible screens will bring to them!

Shortly after the news spread, major mobile phone manufacturers around the world, such as Apple from the United States and the four mobile phone giants from China, Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, and VIVO, used various means to inquire about the inside information from Emerald Island, eager to gain an advantage before the storm of industry change arrives.

Emerald Isle.

Laputa City, inside the private office on the top floor of the Vertical Forest.

"Mr. Island Master, this is the list of mobile phone manufacturers that have expressed their intention to cooperate with us. There are 28 mobile phone manufacturers from all over the world, and 7 of them have expressed their willingness to use our LCD screens in all the mobile phones they will produce in the future."

"oh?"

Jiang Cheng took the list from Monica and took a quick glance at it.

Sure enough, since the news of the flexible LCD screen was announced, almost all mobile phone manufacturers in the world, except for the arrogant Samsung Electronics, have sent cooperation intention applications to Emerald Island.

It seems that my plan has worked. A new round of reform storm is brewing in the mobile phone industry.

However, Jiang Cheng's attention at this time was all focused on the last seven mobile phone manufacturers listed.

Apple, the world's second largest mobile phone manufacturer, China's four mobile phone giants, and two companies from Yamato.

Seeing this list, Jiang Cheng's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.

Sure enough, all the mobile phone manufacturers on this list are dominated by Samsung. I guess they have been coveting Samsung Electronics' position for a long time.

"Let's just pick these four companies. Ask their CEOs to come to Emerald Island tomorrow and tell them that I have a great opportunity for them."

Jiang Cheng glanced around, pointed at the four major Chinese mobile phone companies on the list, and said to Monica.
