Eurasian Journal of Social Sciences, 8(3), 2020, 96-110 DOI: 10.15604/ejss.2020.08.03.002 EURASIAN JOURNAL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES www.eurasianpublications.com XIAOMI – TRANSFORMING THE COMPETITIVE SMARTPHONE MARKET TO BECOME A MAJOR PLAYER Leo Sun HELP University, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Chung Tin Fah Corresponding Author: HELP University, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Received: August 12, 2020 Accepted: September 2, 2020 Abstract Over the past six years, (between the period 2014 -2019), China's electronic information industry and mobile Internet industry has morphed rapidly in line with its economic performance. This is attributable to the strong cooperation between smart phones and the mobile Internet, capitalizing on the rapid development of mobile terminal functions. The mobile Internet is the underlying contributor to the competitive environment of the entire Chinese smartphone industry. Xiaomi began its operations with the launch of its Android-based firmware MIUI (pronounced “Me You I”) in August 2010; a modified and hardcoded user interface, incorporating features from Apple’s IOS and Samsung’s TouchWizUI. As of 2018, Xiaomi is the world’s fourth largest smartphone manufacturer, and it has expanded its products and services to include a wider range of consumer electronics and a smart home device ecosystem. It is a company focused on developing new- generation smartphone software, and Xiaomi operated a successful mobile Internet business. Xiaomi has three core products: Mi Chat, MIUI and Xiaomi smartphones. This paper will use business management models from PEST, Porter’s five forces and SWOT to analyze the internal and external environment of Xiaomi. Finally, the paper evaluates whether Xiaomi has a strategic model of sustainable development, strategic flaws and recommend some suggestions to overcome them. -

2016-2017 CCKF Annual Report
2016-2017 INTRODUCTION The Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for International Scholarly Exchange (the Foundation) was established in 1989 in memory of the outstanding achievements of the late President of the Republic of China, Chiang Ching- kuo (1910-1988). The Foundation’s mission is to promote the study of Chinese culture and society, as well as enhance international scholarly exchange. Its principal work is to award grants and fellowships to institutions and individuals conducting Sinological and Taiwan-related research, thereby adding new life to Chinese cultural traditions while also assuming responsibility for the further development of human civilization. Operational funds supporting the Foundation’s activities derive from interest generated from an endowment donated by both the public and private sectors. As of June 1, 2017, the size of this endowment totaled NT$3.62 billion. The Foundation is governed by its Board of Directors (consisting of between 15 and 21 Board Members), as well as 3 Supervisors. Our central headquarters is located in Taipei, Taiwan, with a regional office near Washington D.C. in McLean, Virginia. In addition, the Foundation currently maintains four overseas centers: the Chiang Ching-kuo International Sinological Center at Charles University in Prague (CCK-ISC); the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation Inter-University Center for Sinology at Harvard University (CCK-IUC); the Chinese University of Hong Kong – Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation Asia-Pacific Centre for Chinese Studies (CCK-APC); and the European Research Center on Contemporary Taiwan – A CCK Foundation Overseas Center at Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen (CCKF-ERCCT). There are also review committees for the five regions covering the geographic scope of the Foundation’s operations: Domestic, American, European, Asia-Pacific and Developing. -

SCIENCE CHINA Information Sciences . REVIEW . January 2016, Vol. 59 012101:1–012101:8 doi: 10.1007/s11432-015-5431-6 An introduction to CPU and DSP design in China Weiwu HU1,2,4 *, Yifu ZHANG1,2,3 & Jie FU1,2,3 1State Key Laboratory of Computer Architecture, Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China; 2Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China; 3School of Computer and Control Engineering, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China; 4Loongson Technology Corporation Limited, Beijing 100195, China Received June 26, 2015; accepted August 10, 2015; published online October 29, 2015 Abstract In recent years, China has witnessed considerable achievements in the production of domestically- designed CPUs and DSPs. Owing to fifteen years of hard work that began in 2001, significant progress has been made in Chinese domestic CPUs and DSPs, primarily represented by Loongson and ShenWei processors. Furthermore parts of the CPU design techniques are comparable to the world’s most advanced designs. A special issue published in Scientia Sinica Informationis in April 2015, is dedicated to exhibiting the technical advancements in Chinese domestically-designed CPUs and DSPs. The content in this issue describes the design and optimization of high performance processors and the key technologies in processor development; these include high-performance micro-architecture design, many-core and multi-core design, radiation hardening design, high- performance physical design, complex chip verification, and binary translation technology. We hope that the articles we collected will promote understanding of CPU/DSP progress in China. Moreover, we believe that the future of Chinese domestic CPU/DSP processors is quite promising. -
