Shockingly, a counterfeit factory has produced a 3-nanometer chip.

Chapter 134 If you're not convinced, then fight!

"Honor Play was three months ahead of me," Lei Jun said. "Three months is enough to change a lot of things."

Shen Fei nodded. If nothing unexpected happened, this should be the first truth he had heard so far.

"This is enough time to establish a price anchor for a market." He leaned forward. "But Mr. Lei, 1999 is not the end. 1998 is."

"1998." Lei Jun stared at him. "You followed our press conference."

Shen Fei chuckled: "President Lei, we're all in the mobile phone business. If we're not keeping an eye on the competition, what are we watching... The intelligence department is really just sitting around doing nothing."

Lei Jun's tense face suddenly broke into a smile: "President Shen, this is the second time you've said that tonight."

Shen Fei laughed as well: "Because it's the truth."

…………

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, both of them slowed down their eating.

Lei Jun picked up his glass and looked at the baijiu in it: "President Shen, every path you've taken is the path I wanted to take."

Shen Fei didn't mince words; instead, he said sarcastically, "President Lei has many paths; you don't have to squeeze into just one."

Lei Jun looked up: "Then tell me which road is yours and which is mine?"

Then he stared at Shen Fei for a while, and almost gritted his teeth as he said, "I've watched the Honor Play launch event many times."

That idea, that pricing strategy, and that way of shaping 1999 into a symbol of technology for all were exactly the same as what I originally envisioned.

Even the idea that "technology is not something lofty and unapproachable, but rather serves the people" is the same.

Are there really that many coincidences in the world?

Shen Fei smiled inwardly. Of course he was familiar with it; it was naturally so.

It's a coincidence, of course it's a "coincidence".

It's really satisfying to use someone else's solution to sell your own product.

We'll do it again next time!

Shen Fei did not avoid his gaze: "President Lei, there's really no need for us to be so awkward."

Lei Jun chuckled. Since it wasn't Shen Fei whose plan was copied, there was no need for him to feel embarrassed.

"You sell products, I sell hardware and software. The paths you take are different from mine."

Shen Fei emphasized this point.

The rice company is currently just an assembly plant, while Transsion has established a plan for the entire industry chain from now on.

Of course, at present, only the battery, system, and their own factory have been revealed.

However, Transsion Panel and Transsion Semiconductor have already been established and are accumulating their own technologies.

They could stab the international supply chain in the back at any time.

However, Lei Jun clearly overthought things when he heard that the road was different.

His operation was low-cost, not an assembly... His anger flared up even more.

Shen Fei smiled again; the plan had succeeded.

It's a pity that the emotion value system didn't follow him in his rebirth, otherwise he could have listened to the most beautiful music in the world.

"Transsion's core business has always been overseas. Currently it's Africa, and next it will be Southeast Asia and Latin America. Domestically, that's just a 'testing ground' for us, so Mr. Lei, don't worry."

Lei Jun's lips twitched slightly. He felt like cursing. So, flash charging and chip enhancement technology were all experimental technologies. They would only give them to Africans after the technology was successful?

He found the words somewhat familiar, after all, they had previously mentioned in a telepathic message that Africa was the testing ground, and that they had never given up on things back home.

"Is it really an experimental field?"

"Yes." Shen Fei nodded without the slightest embarrassment. "The Honor Play is sold for 1999 in China not to fight against anyone, but to verify a model."

They don't make money from hardware; they make money from internet services.

This model is currently working in Africa. We have nurtured several companies worth tens of billions of yuan, and all the companies we have invested in have exceeded hundreds of millions of yuan. This is more profitable than manufacturing mobile phones.

Would this plan work in the country? We'd like to give it a try.

He looked at Lei Jun sincerely and said, "The result of the trial is a rice company, Mr. Lei, isn't that a coincidence?"

"That's quite a coincidence," Leibus said through gritted teeth.

This is what Shen Fei said after having another drink, when he was a little tipsy and a bit drunk:

"Mr. Lei, our next step is to enter the Indian market, which is a huge market comparable to the domestic market... the domestic market is so small."

India...

Looking at Shen Fei's drunken state, Lei Bus said with some disbelief.

…………

Lei Jun chuckled upon hearing this, then raised his glass again and toasted Shen Fei.

not simple!

This person was definitely not his age; he was far more cunning than he had imagined. For the first time, he felt immense pressure from a young man.

He thought about it for a long time, remembering that he was worried that Shen Fei would take his place and that the rice would be blocked at the starting line before it even got off the ground, so he released the first generation of rice ahead of schedule.

But now Shen Fei tells him: What you're worried about isn't the main battlefield for telepathy.

Shit!

He's not some three-year-old kid who can be fooled by Shen Fei's few words.

The feud over the stolen plan cannot be resolved so easily.

However, on the surface, Lei Jun still pretended to understand.

"So where is your main battlefield?"

Shen Fei wiped his mouth and pointed out the window: "Africa."

There are over 10 billion people there, but the smartphone penetration rate is less than 10%. There are no Nokia, no Apple, no Samsung with their channel advantages; it's a blue ocean market.

I'm very optimistic about the market development there, Mr. Lei. Don't think I'm just trying to fool you. Look, our factory has already moved there.

Furthermore, they've established a research and development center in Nigeria, where over 300 people are currently working.

[The remnants of Bird: They didn't even tell us that joining Transsion meant going to work in Africa!]

He withdrew his hand, looked at Lei Jun sincerely and said, "Mr. Lei, you make 1999 in China, and I make 100 US dollars in Africa."

We can't fight.

"If you really want to compete, you can lead your team to the African market, and we can give it a shot."

Go to Africa and become the second waveguide?

Lei Jun isn't that stupid!

Lei Jun, with an expression that suggested he'd let bygones be bygones, sighed and hesitated before saying, "But we'll always run into each other eventually."

Shen Fei laughed: "Since that's the case, let's just run into them and see what happens."

The two raised their glasses together again.

"Cheers!"

The glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound.

In that instant, they both saw what the other was looking into: a wariness of their opponent and a prediction of the future.

It's also a consensus: after this cup, they will be true rivals.

Even though they are nominally on different tracks, they will soon start fighting.

…………

Stepping out of the courtyard, the night wind in Kyoto was very cold.

Lei Jun stood at the door watching Shen Fei leave. Lin Bin walked up from behind and handed him a coat.

"How did the chat go?"

Lei Jun took the clothes but didn't wear them.

"He admitted it."

Lin Bin was taken aback: "Admit what?"

For a moment, he looked at Lei Jun in astonishment: "How is this possible? How could someone with his cunning possibly succeed?"

I saw that black Audi at the entrance of the alley.

"Of course he wouldn't admit it, but I could tell from his tone. The 1999 plan for Honor Play is exactly what I originally thought."

Moreover, he is extremely cunning and will definitely target us again.

Lin Bin fell silent, but he really didn't understand why the telepathic message was targeting them when there was no communication between the two families.

Shen Fei: No, we just borrowed a plan...

"So... what do we do now? We definitely can't compete with Transsion, Huawei, and the investment from their parent company, Huaxin!"

"What to do? If you're not happy, then fight!"

He walked straight to his car, and before he reached it, looking at Lin Bin who was still standing there in a daze, he spoke again:

"Brother Bin, there are many people in this world who can come up with the same idea. Whoever makes it happen first is the winner."

He opened the car door: "Honor Play is three months ahead of us. But the competition isn't over yet..."
