Chapter 236: Bringing CDMA into China

Henry designed the phone, and the rest is the engineer's business!

Silicon Valley Electronics Group will develop two mobile phones, one supports CDMA network and the other supports G** network!

In the previous life, China first used the G** network, and the first G** mobile phone introduced was Ericsson GH337.

Now, Henry wants to change this history! China wants to use the CDMA network and introduce mobile phones developed by Silicon Valley Electronics Group!!

Therefore, Henry intends to let Qualcomm enter Chinese mainland and open up the market as soon as possible! Although China is now very poor, few people can afford to buy mobile phones. However, China's development is changing with each passing day, and the economy is taking off at a high speed, and it will not take many years for a large number of people to afford a mobile phone!!

Before 1995, the market for BB machines in China was huge, but after 1995, the price of mobile phones had begun to drop by a large margin, and the paging business gradually lost under the powerful offensive of mobile phones. In addition, with the improvement of people's living standards and the increase in the number of people who can afford mobile phones, the market for BB machines has suddenly shrunk! In 1996, the number of users began to decline, and the number of pagers also dropped sharply!

However, it was only the beginning of 1992, and if someone had a BB machine pinned to his waist, it would have been a lot of face, and he could completely pretend to be forced in China! At that time, many people bought a BB machine, and then the jacket must have been tied inside the pants, and if it was not tied in the pants, the BB machine would be covered by the jacket. In people's minds, he must be a big boss, and when he answers the phone, he must speak very loudly! This is in the eyes of later generations. It was just a fool yelling there, but at the time, people were envious of him!

Motorola was the first to enter the Chinese mobile phone market, and it once monopolized the Chinese mobile phone market with an absolute advantage. Then. A mobile phone costs tens of thousands of yuan, and China's 10,000 households are very rare!

Therefore, with the "big brother" to speak, bullish !!

However, the speech is loud. Because the early Motorola mobile phone belonged to the analog network, and the analog network signal was not good, the call sound was not good, and it had many shortcomings, so when using the Motorola mobile phone to speak, it was not loud, and the other party could not hear it clearly!

It's just that when the G** network was popular all over the world, Motorola was always obsessed with analog networks, and was finally caught up by Nokia and Ericsson. The reason why Motorola is reluctant to make changes is actually the same reason why Edison is crippled!

Addison rejects the alternating current advocated by Nikola because of its huge investment in direct current, and Motorola is reluctant to make changes with its huge investment in analog networks!!

Edison didn't, and neither did Motorola!

Time will crush everything that goes backwards. Direct current is replaced by alternating current, analog network is replaced by G** network!

In the previous life, Qualcomm was slow to develop. The promotion of CDMA standards is unfavorable. Now, under the influence of Henry, the CDMA network has developed rapidly, and has become the two major communication network standards at present!!

China's market is huge. There's no way Henry can let the G** network nugget in it!

So, Henry soon called Dr. Owen Jacobs, the founder and CEO of Qualcomm, and asked him to send someone to actively explore the Chinese market!

"China is a large country with a population of more than one billion, and the future market is huge, Qualcomm should have laid out early!! China established a mobile communications group company in 1987, which can cooperate with them to help them build CDMA network !!"

"Okay, I'll get people to contact the mobile communications group as soon as possible!" Dr. Owen Jacobs replied on the phone, "However, Mr. Williams, Qualcomm has also done a survey in China, and at present, Chinese is very poor, not many people can't afford to buy mobile phones, and we have gone to such great lengths to help them build a CDMA network, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a profit in a short period of time!!"

"Hehe, Dr. Owen Jacobs, you may be right when you say that the Chinese are poor now. However, it won't be long before China's wealthy people will appear like a blowout! Don't underestimate this country, maybe in a dozen years, the vast majority of Qualcomm's benefits will be obtained from this country! In addition, I dare to predict that the price of mobile phones will also become cheaper and cheaper with the passage of time, and become the most common thing! Perhaps, every child in his teens will have a !!."

Dr. Owen Jacobs was crazy when he heard this, and how could it be that teenagers had a cell phone every child?!!

"Mr. Williams, the price of the phone is for sure, but I think it's still going to be an expensive product!"

Henry smiled when he heard this, not with Dr. Owen Jacobs, time will tell!

"All right, Dr. Owen Jacobs, let's not discuss this for now, and you'll understand later! Now, what you need to do is to send someone to China to open up the market. Silicon Valley Electronics Group will develop CDMA mobile phones, which can be released in China at that time!!!"

"Oh, okay, Mr. Williams!"

After hanging up the phone, Henry pondered for a while, thinking to himself, should I get the Chinese text message out, forget it, or wait for the future upgrade and add it, when the time comes, it can be used as a killer feature......

Henry knows very well how attractive Chinese text messages are to Chinese!

Make a phone call for 5 dimes a minute, and send a text message for 1 dime, I'd rather send a text message!!!

In China, monthly SMS services abound, and the number of text messages is far greater than the number of phone calls is made. In order to save money, you can avoid making phone calls, try not to call, and save money to the end......

The first mobile phone developed by Silicon Valley Electronics Group will be released at the end of 1992. The phone will use the Symbian system, Qualcomm's CDMA communication chip, and the rest of the hardware will be produced by Silicon Valley Electronics Group. In fact, there is nothing too complicated about the current mobile phone, and Henry has dug up so many technical talents to develop a mobile phone, and it will not take a year to put it into practice!

The BB machine is easier to do, since China will be popular for a long time, do you also let people develop a BB machine?

Chinese now have no money to buy mobile phones, they can buy BB machines, and when they have money to buy mobile phones, BB machines can be sold to South America, or Africa, and they can also make a lot of money. And Silicon Valley Electronics Group can also have one more profitable product.

In the future, Henry is not ready to let Silicon Valley Electronics Group set up a store, mainly because the products are too simple! But now, the more and more products Silicon Valley Electronics Group makes, it is time to open a store and establish a strong offline sales channel!!

The store can sell iPod music players, mobile phones, BB machines, cameras, etc., as well as some ancillary equipment!
