The news of the acquisition of Three Stars was sent back to China.
It immediately caused a series of chain reactions.
Among them, more than ten camera companies were affected.
Especially the companies that provided spare parts, they immediately stopped production.
It was a small mobile phone camera made up of more than ten parts of various sizes.
Even if the major cell phone manufacturers imported their products, they didn't use all of their products.
They were all from the image sensor and main control chip from Sony, while the rest were from domestic manufacturers.
Because the manufacturing difficulty of these small parts was relatively low, using domestic parts could greatly reduce costs.
Now that Three-Star had acquired the Sony-based camera department, it was certain that they would cut off the supply of domestic mobile phones.
There was no image sensor or main control chip from the Sonys.
The parts manufacturers that were previously matched with it were immediately affected.
They were all in a state of suspension or semi-suspension.
Some weaker manufacturers were even on the verge of bankruptcy.
Du Peng didn't spend much time to find a camera template manufacturer that was ready to package and sell.
This camera template manufacturer was called Chongtai Technology. Its address was in Donghai, not far from Stars Technology.
At this moment, thousands of workers at Chongtai Technology were unemployed. They could not even pay their salaries.
Seeing Du Peng waving the money, Chong Tai's boss sold the factory without hesitation.
Chongtai Technology's production line was ready-made. Luo Hao brought the engineers to modify their production line.
After the re-design and improvement of raw materials, a high-precision robotic arm could be installed to greatly improve the performance of the sensor.
Under Lin Chen's guidance, the design of the new image sensor and the state-of-the-art software algorithm were quickly completed.
Then, he came to Chongtai Technology, which had now been changed to the factory of Stars Technology Optics Branch.
After three days of hard work, the first batch of cameras from Star Technology was finally ready.
Each of these cameras had a 40-million-pel sensor.
It was almost the same as the sensors of the Sony-series.
However, after the production of high-precision robotic arms, the mechanical arm was able to produce a large number of weapons.
However, it was slightly better than the IMX series of sensors from sony.
Coupled with a more complete software algorithm, Lin Chen believed that:
It could easily beat any camera in the modern world.
In fact, if Lin Chen was willing, he could make a higher quality camera.
The sensor technology in his hands came from the sensing parts of robots a thousand years later.
However, Lin Chen didn't do that. Instead, he left the follow-up improvement plan to the optical talent that Luo Hao had recruited.
Lin Chen had his own considerations.
First, they would introduce a camera on the same level as the Sony-made one.
It would not be too shocking, nor would it attract unnecessary trouble and excessive attention from powerful departments.
In fact, the relevant departments had already contacted Lin Chen about the high-process chip production line.
After all, it was a matter of great importance. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was an important weapon of the country. It was impossible for the state department to ignore it.
Secondly, he had recruited a large group of scholars in the field of optical science and asked them to make improvements in the future.
It could enrich Star Technology's technological reserves and make things natural.
When the optical laboratory had finished testing more than a dozen Huawei mobile phones that had been adapted.
Lin Chen took out the Huawei phones and over a hundred cameras.
He brought his secretary, Chen Fei, to the Huawei Magic City Laboratory.
After arriving at Huawei's Shanghai branch.
Li Xiaolong, the general manager of the mobile phone business department, was not in his office.
According to his assistant, Li Xiaolong had gone to the laboratory and had not slept for a few days.
Lin Chen did not let his assistant inform Li Xiaolong. Instead, he and Chen Fei went straight to the laboratory.
Lin Chen could feel the tense and oppressive atmosphere in the laboratory.
Everyone's expression was solemn. Li Xiaolong was also drowned in the crowd of engineers.
Lin Chen was Hua Wei's most precious guest, so the assistant naturally treated him with respect.
He whispered to Lin Chen," A storm is coming. Huawei is not the only one who is nervous. Other cell phone manufacturers are also testing various models of cameras in hopes of finding a replacement."”
"So, what's the result?" Lin Chen nodded.”
The assistant shook his head with a bitter smile." Sony specializes in mid-to-high-end products. Although there are many powerful manufacturers in the country, other than the camera head of Howell, other manufacturers such as Shun Yu and Ou Feiguang are too inferior.
However, Howe's mobile phone camera was only passable. It was a lot worse than that of Sony'. Moreover, their production capacity was seriously insufficient, and they could not meet the huge demand for so many domestic mobile phones.
Users would only accept better and better products, not products of declining quality. For major mobile phone manufacturers, mid-to-high-end models were the most profitable.
Many of those thousand yuan phones were made to lose money for market share. Once the mid-to-high-end phones were suppressed, the domestic phones would fall into a state of loss.”
Lin Chen naturally understood the predicament that domestic cell phones were facing.
Mid-to-high-end models, especially the flagship model, were like the company's face.
If even the flagship model could only be made so-so.
It would definitely affect the company's global image.
This would affect the sales of the company's products worldwide.
The assistant didn't know why Lin Chen was here.
He just thought that Lin Chen was concerned about Hua Wei's current predicament.
Therefore, he only stayed by Lin Chen's side and did not ask Lin Chen why he was here.
Lin Chen wasn't in a hurry. He wanted to see the test results of the cameras from the major manufacturers first.
