Chapter 1621: Everyone is happy

"Uh, I think mobile phones are gradually becoming a trend, right?" Qin Feng said with a smile in his mind.

President Ollilah nodded.

This is also the reason why Nokia unswervingly takes the mobile phone route.

They see that mobile phones will become an indispensable social tool for people in the future.

Just like landline phones, every household has them.

But landline telephones, a family only needs one.

Mobile phones, on the other hand, are different.

Everyone needs it.

Think about the 6 billion people on the planet today, what a huge market it is.

One per person, that's 6 billion.

Of course, mobile phones are not cheap, and many people in poor countries cannot afford them.

But even if you count the developed countries, and the richer countries in the developing world, they have a population of at least 2 billion.

This market is at least 2 billion. Then, a mobile phone, with five years to replace.

That is, every five years, there will be a huge market of 2 billion.

2 billion, that's an average of 400 million a year.

Nokia got one-tenth of the order, which is 40 million.

With 40 million orders a year, President Ollila is very satisfied. Nokia was also satisfied.

Qin Feng grinned.

40 million? is too underestimating the mobile phone market and Nokia's influence.

In the future, shipments will be hundreds of millions of units a year.

In its most glorious period, several mobile phones sold more than 100 million units. Let's put it this way, before Apple, there were only 7 mobile phone models that sold more than 100 million units, of which Nokia accounted for 6.

The Nokia 1110 was launched in 2005 and sold 250 million units.

The Nokia 3210 was launched in 1999 and sold 160 million units.

Nokia 1200: Launched in 2007, 150 million units sold.

The Nokia 5230 was launched in 2010 and sold 150 million units.

The Nokia 3310 was launched in 2000 and sold 136 million units.

The Nokia 2600 was launched in 2004 and sold 135 million units.

At its peak, in 2005, the annual sales reached 430 million units. This is a very scary number.

It is also the number that made Nokia go from peak to demise quickly.

It's cold in the heights.

But that's still a few years away.

If the smartphone wants to come out, it really takes time. At least without Jobs, smartphones would not have been able to unify the market and replace expensive, functionally effective feature phones.

At this point, Qin Feng really admires everything Jobs has done for mankind again.

In the mobile phone industry, Qin Feng admires two people.

One is the man who changed the entire mobile phone landscape, and even the entire Internet industry, as well as the way of life of human beings - Jobs. His greatness, from a historical point of view, is undoubtedly the greatest man of the 21st century.

He single-handedly changed the entire way of life of mankind.

Before the iPhone, Nokia also tried to relocate various functions to the phone, but only to provide an accessibility function, and did not think that it could replace some specialized devices.

But Jobs was different, he thought that a mobile phone could replace everything.

In the future, people don't need to use other devices, and a smartphone can replace many devices.

Let professionals use professional equipment, and let the public use mobile phones. This is the Jobs ideal. And he did.

And the second one, the person Qin Feng admires, is Lei Jun.

Because, Lei Jun alone defeated the global Android mobile phone market.

Prior to this, Steve Jobs popularized smartphones and changed the way people lived.

However, the price of smartphones is still high.

With Steve Jobs' Apple in front of you, smartphones are in a ridiculous price position.

The flagship machine is about the same price as Apple, and it will be a few hundred dollars cheaper.

But an entry-level smartphone, since it is a smartphone, must be very expensive.

Its price will not be less than 2000 yuan, and its function is not much different from the functional machines sold for thousands of yuan on the market.

You don't even feel the difference. The only difference is that smartphones are slower than feature phones when they turn on some traditional functions.

Undoubtedly, this is ridiculous.

Subsequently, Lei Jun broke all this. Let the price go down, to the point where it can't go down any longer.

At the same time, it also makes the shopping mode of Android's global performance a stereotype.

For all consumers, smartphones have become democratic.

This point has made smart phones popular in advance, and it has also made those bigwigs who really make money from the Internet, such as Ma Yun, Ma Huateng and others make a lot of money. To some extent, they also want to thank Lei Jun.

Without Lei Jun, the popularity of smartphones would not be so fast, and the price would still be so high.

In particular, upgrades are never that fast.

Of course, at this moment, Qin Feng will not say anything about mobile phone hardware or anything like that, it is useless to say this.

At this moment, what Qin Feng wants to say is music.

"President Ollila, I think that since mobile phones are so popular, everyone naturally needs music. This world is inseparable from music. Qin Feng said.

President Ollilah nodded.

Humans can't live without music. If there is no music, it will be miserable.

"Then the ringtone of the mobile phone is the top priority. Qin Feng said with a smile, "At present, the mobile phone ringtone is only the default ringtone, and everyone enters it through the simple score, but there are too few music students." ”

President Ollila vaguely read something from Qin Feng's words. It's just not very clear yet.

"I think of it this way, it's a world of individuality, and everybody is looking for individuality. Everyone wants their phone ringtones to be different. So can we build a website, your platform, my music company to create all kinds of ringtone arrangements, let professional people do professional things, and then provide paid downloads. For example, a ringtone costs $1!" Qin Feng said with a smile, "In this way, your company makes money, and we make money, including music artists." As for consumers, it is also a joy to be able to have their own unique and exclusive ringtones. Isn't it beautiful that everyone is happy like this!"

$1 for 1 ringtone. President Ollilah quickly settled an account in his mind.

There are 40 million mobile phones a year, and a mobile phone downloads an average of one ringtone in three months, and 160 million ringtones in a year. For $1, the profit in this area is $160 million.

Even if it is divided by three parties, then Nokia can have an additional net profit of tens of millions of dollars.

It's pure profit, and there's almost no input. It's a good deal.

President Ollila's eyes lit up. This piano master has a lot of brains.

I was able to come up with this.

Moreover, he is based on a more conservative estimate, and it is likely that it will be more.

The money you make may be far beyond your imagination.
