ã€World Wide Web Reporter Zhang Zhiying】Qualcomm and major customers Apple’s war on chip patent licensing continues, and even recently suffered Broadcom’s hostile takeover. Qualcomm said recently that mobile phone makers are not producing news on their own chips. This was done as early as the 2G era. Qualcomm said that the view that Apple will undermine the business performance of Qualcomm modems is based on the assumption that the industry remains unchanged. However, the rise of Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, and China’s mobile phone industry, and even the upcoming 5G era, In fact, they all opened up markets that were not previously available to Qualcomm. "We see a significant increase in the Chinese market, other customers like Samsung's tremendous growth, and room for growth beyond the mobile phone. In addition, the arrival of 5G will bring more possibilities." Qualcomm CDMA Technologies President Cristiano Amon at the Qualcomm Snapdragon Summit In an interview with foreign media PCMag, he said. However, Samsung and Huawei are also developing chips to compete with Qualcomm, which means that the world's three major handset makers are trying to find alternatives to Qualcomm mobile processors and modems. However, Cristiano Amon pointed out that this challenge is not only now. “As Qualcomm has continued to focus on this, our current scale may have been different. There is no doubt that in the industry, OEMs have a certain degree of concentration. In fact, in the early 2G era, Qualcomm’s CDMA, there are companies like Samsung and Motorola have their own CDMA chips. As long as your output is sufficient, you can also assume the scale of research and development of the semiconductor business. Nokia has done so, and everyone does so, and we will do so," said Cristiano Amon. Cristiano Amon stressed that the situation of mobile phone manufacturers is changing. The rise of millet, oppo, and vivo opened Qualcomm's unrivalled market. For Apple's choice of other manufacturers to reduce the concerns of Qualcomm business, apparently in the premise that you think the industry will not change. However, in the face of the ever-changing smartphone market, this is not a good bet. "You can't accurately predict that the OEM's situation will always be the same," Cristiano Amon pointed out. "When you enter a new era like 5G, you can create an entry point for many OEMs in the market. This seems to be the more important issue. Our only concern is that if the market thinks that the mobile phone's innovation space has come to an end, but it is not the case, the mobile phone market is still a very promising market." Cristiano Amon said, “In early 2016, we restructured our business and believe that a huge OEM business should meet multiple sources and multiple layers of supply. We have always been very open about this. We have seen QCT continue to grow, alone in non-telephone business. The revenue is about 3 billion U.S. dollars." At the same time, Qualcomm is actively looking for other possibilities than mobile phones. In addition to launching Windows laptops equipped with Snapdragon chips at its Snapdragon Summit, Qualcomm is currently trying to buy chip maker NXP to increase its influence in the automotive industry. All in all, "You must have the technology," Cristiano Amon shrugged. "Some OEMs choose to bet on innovation. Some OEMs choose to wait until the technology matures."
