Chapter 481: Williams Vivo Camera Phone
These conglomerates in the United States have been intertwined for a hundred years, and as Henry becomes stronger, he feels more and more that a huge spider web is in front of him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the power of these plutocrats controls the direction of the United States, and it is not comparable to Henry, a "newcomer". But Henry's rapid rise was so terrifying that they felt a deep sense of crisis, so much so that they were united in their hatred of the enemy, just as they were with the Rothschilds.
In the new Internet industry, they naturally cannot compete with Henry, but in traditional industries, such as energy, automobiles, food, military industry, finance, aircraft, etc., it is a situation of encirclement, pursuit and interception. Henry is not afraid of civilian competition. However, in the area of government orders, it has dropped sharply in recent years.
Although Henry is also trying his best to support his own political power, in the final analysis, it is not comparable to the accumulation of others over the past century. At the same time, the United States will not allow the existence of a behemoth that overrides the state.
Henry considered Charles's suggestion carefully for two days. At the same time, he asked people to investigate information on Somalia and Ethiopia. According to the information, there are 30 or 40 large and small warlords in Somalia, and the total number of troops is less than 60,000. However, Ethiopia's military expenditure is less than $350 million a year, and it is not as expensive as a Raptor F22 produced by the God of War Arms Company, and an F22 is worth $400 million! It is really hard to imagine how rubbish Ethiopia's armed forces are! Even if all the 200,000 troops are pulled out, they will all be a rabble!
On the other hand, in Heishui, there are more than 300,000 normal armed forces, many elites, and well-armed equipment, which is not weaker than the armies of the world's powers. In addition, the Blackwater base is home to millions of militarized orphans who have begun to grow up to be the best and most loyal soldiers, and they are well educated and will be able to run the country in the future!
Henry doesn't think about himself, he also thinks about the Blackwater orphans, so he has to find a place for them to live. Undoubtedly, the occupation of Somalia is a good option. Henry remembers that in 2003, when the Iraq War broke out, the United States was mired in war, and naturally had no time to take care of anything else, and at that time, it was just right to capture Ethiopia!
Henry then replied to Charles and decided to build a country. Subsequently, Sean is summoned, and Charles plots the matter.
In the middle of the night on December 1, a war broke out on the border between Ethiopia and Eritrea, and the fighting was fierce, with countless casualties. Ethiopia and Eritrea, which had been preparing to sign a peace agreement, have renewed tensions. A week later, 50,000 elite Blackwater troops secretly arrived in Somalia, and then detonated a warlord scuffle, and the fighting spread throughout the country.
Henry has no doubts about Blackwater's ability to take Somalia, and all he has to do now is make money and develop technology.
Yesterday, Sharp held a product launch and launched the world's first mobile phone with a camera.
"Welcome to Sharp's product launch, where mobile phones were only used to make phone calls, then to text and surf the Internet...... But today, Sharp wants to tell you that in addition to these functions, mobile phones can also be used to take pictures!
On Christmas Day on December 25th, Sharp will release the world's first mobile phone with a built-in 110,000-pixel CCD camera - JSH04!!"
When the reporters heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked, mobile phones can take pictures, isn't it going to replace cameras? It's just that this pixel only has 110,000, which is too rubbish!
When Henry saw this product launch, the corners of his mouth rose with a hint of disdain.
"Don't think about the Japanese chaebol companies, let's take your Sharp first! The 110,000-pixel mobile phone is actually embarrassed to release it!!
Henry picked up the phone and dialed Harrison, CEO of Williams Electronics.
"Hello, chairman, do you have any instructions?"
"Have you seen Sharp's latest product launch?"
"See!" said Harrison with a nod, "What do you mean by asking Williams Electronics to immediately launch a new phone to snipe Sharp's JSH04 phone?"
"That's right!" asked Henry, "how many pixels do we have on our phones so far?"
"Since the introduction of the Bluetooth mobile phone, Williams Electronics has been working on the camera phone, and after more than three years, it has finally researched and emitted a 2 million pixel mobile phone!" Harrison replied proudly, "And our phone also supports optical zoom!"
When Henry heard this, he was shocked, Williams Electronics' mobile phones were so awesome!
It seems that there are many talents, R&D funds are in place, and the development speed is fast!
Mobile phones that support optical zoom will not come out until after 2004, which is almost 3 years ahead of schedule. This kind of mobile phone has a crushing advantage over all current mobile phones!!
After shooting the mobile phone, it is almost time to launch the smartphone iPhone! Henry has been laying out this area for a long time, whether it is Apple's mobile phone system or multi-touch technology, it is all invested heavily in development. The era of selling kidneys will soon come.
After the launch of smart phones, it is time to immediately lay out the mobile terminal, and the speed of making money is only fast and not slow!
Social software like Facebook, micro ~ letter, etc., can shine!
O2O industries such as Uber taxi and food delivery will flourish!
As long as Henry takes the lead step by step, he monopolizes all the entrances to the mobile terminal, and see how others still play!
"Harrison, get the factory ready to produce camera phones as soon as possible!" Henry paused and said, "It's best to be on the market on Christmas Day!"
With the current scale of Hongnian Technology Factory, it can produce at least 1 million mobile phones in half a month!"
"Let Hongnian Technology Factory increase production capacity, I am full of confidence in this mobile phone, at least 20 million units can be sold!"
"Chairman, the manufacturing cost of this mobile phone is about 300 US dollars, so what is our selling price?"
Henry thought for a moment and said, "With such a high-end camera phone, it is natural to take the high-end route......! That's $499!!"
"And what's the name of this phone?"
"Williams vivo camera phone!"
Harrison then began preparing for the launch of the new phone, as Henry had instructed. At the same time, the special Sharp company also held a product launch conference! The conference invited major media from all over the world, including ABC TV, Taixing Satellite TV, YouTube, etc., and the whole venue was no less than 1,000 people, which was quite grand!
After Harrison came to the stage, after making some high-sounding words, he immediately unveiled the new mobile phone of Williams Electronics. The phone is completely modeled after the Nokia 1110 launched in 2005, which is also Nokia's best-selling vertical phone, with 250 million units sold worldwide. The design of the phone is very simple, the case color is black, blue, gray, white, red, etc., and there is an amber background light......
When Harrison announced that the phone has 2 million pixels and has support for optical zoom. All the reporters present were shocked, such a mobile phone can be called a camera! And a new mobile phone just released by Japan's Sharp company is also a camera phone, but the pixels are only 110,000, and the gap between the two is simply one in the sky and the other in the ground!
In addition, Sharp's JSH04 camera phone is priced at $450, while Williams Electronics' Vivo camera phone is priced at $499, and even the price-performance ratio is better than that of Sharp's phone! Sharp's JSH04 mobile phone suddenly became the laughing stock of reporters, and it was embarrassed to claim to be the world's first camera phone, and Williams Electronics must have developed a camera phone a long time ago, but it was not released!
After the product launch conference, Sharp quickly got the news, it was so angry, the whole person was not good......
So far, we have prepared a total of 5 million JSH04 camera phones, and if we don't reduce the price, I'm afraid we won't be able to sell them!"
In fact, the 110,000-pixel photo is very blurry, and the beauty and the ugly woman take pictures with the JSH04 mobile phone, which is almost the same...... Sharp's JSH04 mobile phone won't be popular even if it doesn't have a sniper from Williams Electronics!
Sharp Chairman Ichiro Yamada scolded angrily: "Williams Electronics Company didn't release it sooner rather than later, but waited for our mobile phone to be released, and it released the vivo mobile phone, which is obviously aimed at our Sharp company! If we know that they have a 2 million pixel camera phone, how can we launch a 110,000 pixel mobile phone to bring shame on ourselves?"
"President, the matter has come to this, jsh04 mobile phone photography can only be sold if the price is reduced, so as to reduce losses!"
"Let's go down to $399 then!"
"$399 is still too expensive, I'm worried that customers won't buy it......"
"$399 first, and if the sales are not good, then the price will be reduced again!"
Sharp immediately announced to the outside world that the JSH04 mobile phone was reduced to $399 a piece. However, after the price reduction, not many people are interested in the JSH04 phone. On the other hand, the Williams vivo mobile phone, although it is expensive, countless people are full of expectations for it.
The 2 million pixel pixel is not very high, but it is not bad, and it also supports optical zoom, which is simply a low-grade digital camera that can make phone calls. Who would go out with a bulky camera? But a mobile phone is a must-have, and with a Williams vivo phone, you can make phone calls and take pictures at the same time! Especially some young girls who like fashion can't wait to buy one of these phones right away!
After more than ten days, the long-awaited Christmas has finally arrived.
On this morning, as soon as the Williams store opened, countless young men and women lined up at the door.
Williams Electronics told the outside world that the number of mobile phones this time is limited, only 1 million units, and if they are sold out, they can only wait a month before they can be available. But who wants to wait for a month?! There are many rich people, not bad money! As a result, there are lively queues to buy Williams vivo mobile phones all over the United States!
At the same time, the Sharp JSH04 mobile phone on the market was unattended.
With only 110,000 pixels, you still want to take a picture?
How tall is the 2 million pixel Williams vivo mobile phone, it is simply a mobile phone that Bai Fumei would buy, and the 110,000 pixel Sharp JSH04 mobile phone, even the short and poor don't bother to buy it!
If it's a friend's reunion or something, everyone else takes out a Williams vivo mobile phone, if you take out a Sharp jsh04 mobile phone, how embarrassing this TM is!
In one morning, 1 million Williams vivo phones were sold out. And the Sharp JSH04 mobile phone has only sold 100 units in the United States! The difference of 10,000 times is really ridiculous and generous, and stores around the country have returned it to Sharp, saying that this kind of junk goods sells for 400 dollars, who would want to buy it?!
Sharp can't help it, although the manufacturing cost of the mobile phone is only 220 US dollars, but Sharp, dealers and retailers have to make money, not selling 399 US dollars, how can Sharp make money?
Sharp & Company.
"President, there are returns from all over the country, and they can only be sold at a loss, otherwise, five million jsh04 mobile phones can't be sold, so they can only be placed in the warehouse, and the warehouse management fee is also a big expense!"
Ichiro Yamada thought that the camera phone gimmick was big, and there must be a trick, so he decided to produce 5 million mobile phones in one go, ready to sell them on Christmas Day, hoping to create a miracle! But unexpectedly, the miracle was created, but not as he hoped......
The 2 million pixels of Williams vivo mobile phone are simply a knife deeply inserted into the chest of JSH04 mobile phone!
The original innovative mobile phone has become an inferior product in an instant, and it can't be sold!
Ichiro Yamada sighed: "Come down, $300 a piece!"
Dealers and retailers will certainly not be able to reduce their profits, at least $100. Therefore, the money lost can only be recognized by yourself. Sharp will lose dozens of dollars when selling a mobile phone, and the loss can be big when you count other resources such as manpower and material resources. What's more worrying is that 5 million mobile phones may not all be sold.
At this time, Henry was discussing with Harrison to develop a cheap mobile phone to sweep the global low-end mobile phone market. The reason why Nokia's Nokia 1110 mobile phone can sell 250 million phones is that it is cheap and cost-effective.
"What is the cost of a 100-pixel camera phone that doesn't support optical zoom?" asked Henry, adding that $499 is still too expensive, and most phones today are around $200. The low-end market base is large, and although the profit of each unit is small, the money earned is no less than that of the high-end!
"It costs almost $250!"
$250? Henry thought for a moment and said, "Then we'll price it $350." When the sales of Williams vivo mobile phones were weak, this mid-range product was launched. ”
Williams Electronics owns Williams stores, which is enough to maximize profits.
Henry wants to make Japanese companies unable to hold their heads up, suppress one by one, and finally let them go bankrupt and go bankrupt, and become the tragic fate of being bought over......
