Chapter 682 - No Choice

China's Internet industry, because Qin Feng dug up cable modem technology, the development of 10 years ahead of schedule.

At that time, why did no one buy cable modem technology, and waited for a few years later, when ADSL technology came out to be popularized, it didn't start. By that time, it was already late.

Why this is so, Qin Feng doesn't know. But whatever the reason, it's ahead of time.

In terms of the TV station, Qin Feng was specially invited over to ask about the charges.

For the charge, Qin Feng proposed several levels of fees, which are naturally related to the broadband rate. Starting with the most basic bandwidth of 1M, all the way up to the current limit of 36M bandwidth.

With 1M, the download speed can be about 128K per second. In later generations, you can't watch movies, you can only watch movies with very garbage quality.

However, there are very few resources on the Internet at present, and the quality of the movie is indeed not good enough, so it is enough. At least play online games, for now, you still won't get stuck.

In particular, computer speed is much slower than broadband speed.

The 1M broadband proposed by Qin Feng is purely an entry, so that everyone can access the Internet. Therefore, Qin Feng also suggested that it charge the same fee as wired broadband, that is, 15 yuan a month.

This money, for the vast majority of people, is affordable. You have to charge too much, and it may be difficult for ordinary people to access the Internet.

Of course, most people don't have computers at home these days. But by next year, computer prices will start to fall.

Because, next year, in 1998, the Celeron processor will be born.

At present, AMD chips are seizing the market at half the price cheaper than Intel. However, the performance of AMD chips is so poor that almost no PC users will consider AMD chips.

As a result, the price of computers is still a bit high. However, with the progress of AMD technology, the gap with Intel is slowly narrowing, and next year, in the face of the situation that the low-end market may be completely cannibalized by AMD, Intel will also launch Celeron processors.

This directly makes a computer, from the original high price, instantly fall to the ground, and the price is cut in half.

Therefore, the road to the popularization of computers in China began. After all, Celeron processors are very good.

Now, let's roll it out first. By the time we wait for next year, many people will naturally start going online.

After the entry speed of 1M, it jumped directly to 10M broadband, and the price changed from the original 15 yuan a month to 98 yuan a month.

Obviously, this is unacceptable to most individuals at the moment. This is also for companies.

After all, for the company, 98 yuan a month is acceptable.

Then, 20M broadband, itself rose to 298 yuan. For large companies, as long as the speed is OK, the price doesn't matter. That's a lot of money.

As for the limit 36M broadband, Qin Feng recommends a service fee of 598 yuan a month.

In these years, the speed of 36M broadband has skyrocketed, almost the same as flying speed. And for large companies that want to have such speed, this amount of money is nothing.

"Mr. Qin, we see that your price positioning is feasible!" After studying for a long time, the director nodded again and again.

The price entry is guaranteed, and the absolute interests of the TV station are also guaranteed.

"Qin Feng, we finally understand everything. We are already starting to commission production to manufacturers! It is expected that in a month, our own cable modem will be on the market. Lei Jun called.

"That's good!" Qin Feng smiled, "How about the production capacity?"

"Well, at the moment it is guaranteed to produce 10,000 units a month. Lei Jun said.

10,000 units? Qin Feng pondered for a moment, this is basically barely enough now.

Of course, the production capacity will gradually increase with the familiarity of the production line workers. At the same time, if enough orders are signed, its production manufacturers will also increase assembly lines and recruit more workers to increase production capacity.

"For now, it's okay. Then we can talk about cooperation with other cities!" Qin Feng said, "First negotiate a few big cities, and then gradually take over the second-tier cities and third-tier cities!"

At present, if the two sides cooperate, the cooperation with Beijing TV is Qin Feng to provide equipment and technical services.

In other words, the TV station only provides the platform of cable cable, and everything else is Qin Feng's. Of course, the cable TV station will be responsible for signing the contract, and then the relevant orders will be issued to Qin Feng's company.

Then, Qin Feng Company sent staff to install wired cables. As for after-sales service, the TV station also provides a customer service hotline, and then transfers the relevant problems to the staff on Qin Feng's side to deal with them.

It can be said that the TV station needs to pay very little, but it accounts for half of the revenue. At this point, it seems unfair, but people have such a platform and have such rights.

At this point, Qin Feng was not blushing. After all, the platform is king.

What's more, in the competition of Internet service providers, TV stations also need to compete with other companies such as China Mobile and China Unicom to resist the blockade of their companies.

This kind of thing, if you want to rely on Qin Feng alone, it will be impossible.

Qin Feng doesn't have that much connections and face to settle these big enterprises.

"Well, I know, I'll leave soon, go to other cities to negotiate, and win this contract!" Lei Jun nodded.

Regarding the cooperation with the TV station, Lei Jun is not worried. The reason is simple, at the moment this technology is unique and only they can master it. Then there is no possibility of bargaining on the TV station, and in terms of price, the TV station does not suffer.

If this is calculated, it is natural that no TV station will give up such cooperation.

All this is a matter of course.

Of course, since the cable modem is about to be fully launched, the current domestic Internet service will also have to change.

First and foremost, it's the portal!

At present, the portal is lacking in the country. Because, for rookie netizens, they need to discover information through portals, discover Internet resources, and all kinds of resources.

As for the search engine, Qin Feng naturally understands that this has to be done. At this point, Yahoo has the resources. Qin Feng will go to talk to Yahoo when the time comes, and build a domestic search engine. As long as this occupies the market in advance, then latecomers will not be able to challenge its position.

For example, in the future, Baidu occupied an absolute monopoly position, and no one could challenge it. Even Baidu has been reduced to the point of selling rankings and selling fake drugs. But as a domestic netizen, it is still Baidu first.

Because there is no choice!
