Chapter 375: Apple's valuation soared to an extremely terrifying number

These reporters are really, they will interview and interview, and look at what they have said, it is simply pouring salt on the wound and adding fuel to the fire!

Fortunately, Simon Motorola hid in his office and did not hear these words. However, he didn't dare to go out now, feeling that he had no face......

It was almost noon, and Simon Motorola and other members of the company's board of directors were meeting in the large conference room, and the company's senior management above the manager was also present.

Simon Motorola, who was sitting on the main seat, looked haggard and tired.

He looked at everyone and said in a low voice: "Everyone, at this moment, Motorola will face an unprecedented crisis!! we originally thought that this time we would successfully suppress Apple, but we never expected Apple's Apple Phone1 mobile phone to step on our Motorola mobile phone to rise strongly!"

Speaking of this, Simon Motorola couldn't help but sigh slightly, feeling a little powerless, and said from the bottom of his heart that Apple's Apple Phone1 mobile phone is indeed better than Motorola's mobile phone.

"Now, we urgently need to come up with countermeasures, otherwise, the mobile phone market will be snatched up by Apple sooner or later!"

"Which of you has come up with a solution?"

Simon Motorola asked, however, he looked around and saw that they were all looking down one by one, afraid to make eye contact with him.

Hum!

This bunch of rubbish!

I swore before that I had sworn how powerful the new mobile phone I developed was, and my mouth was like a hanging river, and it was blown to the sky, but in the end, in the face of Apple's new mobile phone, it was a mess.

Simon Motorola is angry, as the chairman, he will not interfere in the development of the company unless there is a major matter, and there are usually professional managers to take care of him, but these people who manage the company for him are really incompetent, and the name of the mobile phone monopoly giant seems to be ceded to Apple!

Apple is different from ordinary mobile phone manufacturers, small scale, slow development, Apple has strong financial resources, wide channels, brand awareness is even higher than Motorola, and has many fans. This time, Apple Phone1 is coming strongly, sweeping the world, and in the field of mobile phones, Apple's position will soon surpass Motorola!

There was a silence in the room, and finally someone spoke.

It was Sean Gray, CEO of Motorola, who spoke, looking at Simon Motorola's increasingly cold face, he knew that if he didn't speak again, the position of CEO might not be guaranteed.

"Mr. Motorola, Apple has obviously been premeditated and has spent eight or nine years secretly developing mobile phones, so it caught us off guard! However, our Motorola company is not easy to mess with! Motorola has always been the first in the industry in terms of mobile phone development technology, and even Apple cannot compare with us. Failure is the mother of success, as long as we sum up this experience, we will definitely defeat Apple and regain the market share of Motorola's mobile phones!!"

When Simon Motorola heard this, his expression was slightly gloomy.

Sean Gray glanced at him, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "We have to admit that the Apple Phone1 mobile phone has a very good functional design, such as ringtones, contacts, call logs, etc., in fact, we can also do it, as long as we remove the chaff and extract the essence, the company's next generation of mobile phones will be successful!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone applauded.

"Shaun Gray has a point!"

"The CEO's proposal is very good, we can't deny the merits of the enemy, and we have to learn from it, and do it better than the blue!"

“……”

At the moment, Motorola immediately made a plan for a new mobile phone!

However, Motorola has not given up on analog phones. Even now Apple Phone1 mobile phones are very popular, GSM and CDMA have also begun to rise, but the mobile phone communication technology in many countries is still stuck in analog signal communication, in other words, in the view of Motorola, the main market for mobile phones is still analog mobile phones, and they will naturally not give up this piece of fat prematurely.

Motorola's calculation is actually very simple, that is, it wants to wait for the real rise of digital mobile phones, and then it will get involved. It's just that Motorola didn't expect the speed of the development of second-generation communication technology beyond their imagination.

Soon, Motorola announced its plans for the development of a new mobile phone.

"Motorola, as the overlord of the mobile phone industry, is strong, although the current mobile phone product failed, but it did not affect the status of Motorola. I believe that with Motorola's technology, we will develop a more powerful and popular mobile phone!"

"This time, Motorola will invest $200 million to concentrate the strongest R&D strength within the company, and we are confident that we can beat any competitor, including Apple, !! internally."

A Motorola spokesperson spoke with extreme confidence when facing reporters.

On the same day, as soon as the news came out, the stock price of Motorola, which had been plummeting, immediately stopped, and then rebounded a lot.

The Wall Street Journal: "Motorola announced its plan for a new mobile phone this morning, and its stock price immediately rebounded, and shareholders and investors are optimistic about Motorola's development!

However, there are also media that are not optimistic about Motorola.

For example, the Los Angeles Times said: "From the perspective of the Apple Phone1 mobile phone, Apple's technology is no worse than Motorola, and even much better in many places." In addition, Motorola only has an advantage in analog communication technology, but it is clear that the times are advancing, the first generation of communication technology has begun to be gradually eliminated, the second generation of communication technology has matured, Apple in GSM, CDMA mobile phone development technology, ahead of Motorola for many years!

As we all know, CDMA technology belongs to the patent of Qualcomm, which is also the patent of Chronos· Therefore, it is not difficult to speculate that in the era of the second generation of communication technology, Apple will have a place in the mobile phone market, and its advantages are stronger than any other enterprise!

In addition, Apple's industrial design level has always been praised in the industry, and many of its products have won industrial design awards, such as the red dot award, IDEA and iF Design Aard, which is known as the "Oscar of the design industry"!

The appearance and interior design of the Apple Phone1 mobile phone can be called industrial art, fashion technology, and is deeply loved by the majority of young people, and it is said that the Apple Phone1 mobile phone has been nominated for the red dot award......"

At this time, Li Zetian also learned about Motorola's plan to develop a new mobile phone.

He looked at Jobs on the side, smiled and asked, "Do you guess Motorola is developing a digital mobile phone or an analog mobile phone?"

Jobs shook his head and said: "I don't know, their new mobile phone research and development plan this time is very secret, and it seems that it is going to be ruined!"

After a pause, Jobs said with a smile, "If Motorola develops a digital mobile phone, with the other party's R&D capabilities, it will indeed pose a great threat to Apple in the future." But if the analog phone they developed, hehe, Motorola's mobile phone hegemony will really give up!!"

Li Zetian shook his red wine glass and said lightly: "In the end, the analog mobile phone market is still a piece of fat, and Motorola may not give up easily." Of course, they will definitely develop digital mobile phones at the same time, but the main force is placed on the developers of analog mobile phones, how much power can they put into digital mobile phones? This will inevitably lead to the slow development of Motorola's digital mobile phones, and in the end we will be thrown farther and farther away!"

After speaking, Li Zetian took a sip of red wine, put down the wine glass, and said with a hint of pity and understanding in his tone: "As the saying goes, 'a small ship is good to turn around', and a large company like Motorola is naturally not easy to turn around." If I had to decide to give up what I do best, and there is a huge market for it, I wouldn't dare to do it......"

"Oh, by the way, what happened to Nokia in Europe? Pay more attention to this company in the future!" Li Zetian said suddenly.

Jobs's expression changed slightly, and he replied: "This Nokia company is a bit remarkable, according to the reliable information I have received, Nokia is currently developing a new mobile phone, and many functions are the same as the Apple Phone1! If it weren't for our Apple company to release the Apple Phone1 in advance, it might be Nokia that became famous!"

Li Zetian nodded, no one knows the strength of Nokia better than him, even if Motorola is still much weaker than him. At the time of its glory, Nokia dominated the mobile phone market for 15 years!!

"Pay more attention to Nokia in the future, he may be even more terrifying than Motorola!"

"yes, I see!"

"In the future, the mobile phone market will be fiercely competitive, and if you don't advance, you will retreat, and Apple's new mobile phone development plan will be put on the agenda immediately!"

After Li Zetian finished speaking, he asked about the sales of Apple Phone1 mobile phones.

In less than a week, Apple sold more than 800,000 mobile phones worldwide, which is an amazing result!

Apple Phone1 mobile phone has become the most fashionable and trendy product at the moment, although the price is not as expensive as Motorola mobile phone, but it is more face-saving to bring out. And those who hold "big brother" mobile phones are complained about outdated and outdated old hats or get rich.

The success of the Apple Phone1 is not only the success of Apple, but also Sprint and Qualcomm.

CDMA technology has been widely promoted, and Qualcomm has made huge profits. In addition to mobile phone manufacturers contacting Qualcomm, telecommunications companies in many countries have also contacted Qualcomm, including China Mobile and Unicom.

As for Sprint Telco, it added more than 800,000 wireless mobile subscribers in just one week, which stunned other telcos.

The term "custom machine" began to circulate in the industry.

A customized phone refers to a mobile phone that is specially customized for telecom operators, and such mobile phones are embedded with certain extended applications and services of telecom operators. It's a win-win for both handset makers and telcos! Sprint's Apple Phone1 alone sold 280,000 units in a staggering week.

……

……

A month later, Apple announced the total sales of the Apple Phone 1 - 2.1 million units!!

The news immediately spread around the world, causing a huge sensation.

The industry was stunned!

The media is dumbfounded!

Countless companies are envious, jealous and hateful!

"Apple...... Apple is too powerful, isn't it?!"

Many people questioned it because they couldn't believe it. What a terrific mobile phone overlord Motorola is, Apple's mobile phone sales in a month are almost catching up with Motorola's mobile phone sales in a year!

However, this is an indisputable fact.

Apple Phone1 is not only a communication phone, but also a fashion element.

The price of the Apple Phone1 is cheaper than that of the Motorola phone, and consumers can afford it.

Coupled with a large number of online and offline promotion resources, it is no wonder that the sales of Apple Phone1 are not hot.

However, 2.1 million is not a big deal in Li Zetian's view, and when Apple released the iPhone series of mobile phones in the previous life, it exceeded 10 million units in the first week. Apple still has a long way to go.

However, for others, 2.1 million sales a month is a miracle!

"Apple Phone1 successfully activated the mobile phone market, and Apple created an unprecedented miracle in the industry in one month with unparalleled brand strength and product design!"

"Apple Phone1 crushes Motorola to create a legend of 2.1 million mobile phones sold in the first month!"

"Experts predict that Apple Phone1 mobile phones are expected to exceed 5 million units this year!"

"Wall Street's Revaluation of Apple - $200 Billion !!"

As soon as the market value of $200 billion was appraised, it caused a sensation around the world and caused crazy heated discussions.

Some are skeptical, but others agree.

"Apple is a big deal, with a market value of $200 billion! However, Apple deserves its name! CD-alkman dominates the world, selling more than 30 million units a year and accounting for more than 75 percent of the market share. There is also the Mac all-in-one desktop, which has a near monopoly on the all-in-one market, selling tens of millions of units every year. In addition, there is also a MacBook laptop, which is also the hottest and most popular notebook! Now there is an Apple Phone1 mobile phone, and at a glance at this trend, it is to blow up Motorola and monopolize the world!"

"Apple's products have always been highly profitable, coupled with the fact that technology stocks are now super hot. Apple is certainly highly sought after by Wall Street investors, and this time the sales of the Apple Phone1 are so amazing that it is not surprising that Apple's valuation can reach $200 billion!"

"That's right, which tech company has a high market capitalization right now? Let's just say that the TripAdvisor travel website that just launched in June is now almost $11.5 billion, which is just scared to death!"

"yes...... It makes me itch now, and I want to start a business in Silicon Valley! If I go public, I will make a fortune!!"

……

Li Zetian looked at the newspaper with a very stunned expression.

"Damn, this is 200 billion US dollars? This is really not going through the 90s, I don't know how crazy the valuation is!" Li Zetian sighed, "At the end of the 90s in the previous life, Microsoft was more than 600 billion US dollars, Cisco was more than 600 billion US dollars, and even Sun Microsystems was more than 200 billion US dollars......
