In his previous life, in 1985, Li Chaoren's Hutchison Telecommunications and Motorola jointly launched a cellular mobile phone business in Xiangjiang.

A total of 28 radio towers were built to ensure that the mobile phone signal was unblocked.

But obviously, because the first generation of this mobile phone signal sending and receiving tower is not so mature, and the function is not so powerful, so even in some downtown areas, when there are more people using mobile phones, there will be a lack of signal.

Those who hold their mobile phones and shout "hey, hey, hey" in an open place are really not pretending to be compared at first, but the signal is really bad.

So Yin Jun absorbed these experiences.

After he bought the radio transmission and reception signal technology from Ericsson, he immediately handed it over to the domestic radio department to start improving and enhancing the signal.

Huaguo has always been strong in radio, which is why Huaguo's future wireless network will far surpass the heritage of other countries.

If it weren't for so many years of accumulation, how could the 4G network era surpass foreign countries by a large margin, and directly realize the dream of overtaking in corners?

Do you think you can do so well in a day or two?

After about a year of technical experimentation and application, by the time the tower was officially delivered to the Kirin Group in November, the strength of the receiving and transmitting signals had increased by more than five times.

Even so, Yin Jun prepared 60 radio transmission towers, which were densely arranged in Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories, even in remote places such as Lantau Island and Lamma Island.

Under such a signal strength, the call effect of the Kirin mobile phone is naturally much stronger than the first version in the previous life.

It's not that Yin Jun is wasting, but he uses Xiangjiang as a base for experiments, and all kinds of data from experiments here can be used elsewhere in the future.

Therefore, such experiments do not care about the loss of money.

With the continuous advertising, the construction and installation of radio transmission towers, and the establishment and improvement of various service departments of Xiangjiang Phone, more and more people are interested in Kirin mobile phones.

It has been advertised that it will be officially released on January 1st.

Then after the Spring Festival in February, we will start to ship goods one after another.

This is not intended to be an appetite, but the entire set of installation and commissioning processes takes time.

Including the various finishing training in Xiangjiang telephone, it is also a very complicated matter.

If Yin Jun was not in a hurry to seize the first commercial mobile phone before Motorola, it would actually be the best choice to go on sale in February.

Even if they could only get their mobile phones after the Spring Festival, a group of wealthy people in Xiangjiang, or the group of people who yearned for a new life in the advertisement, still responded positively.

In ten days, more than 8,000 mobile phones were booked.

By January 1, the number had exceeded 15,000.

Don't think that's too little.

The price of Motorola's first commercial phone, the 8000X, is $3,995, and a minute of talk is $1.

According to the current exchange rate, that is 28,000 Hong Kong dollars for a mobile phone, 7 Hong Kong dollars for a minute.

Yin Jun naturally can't be so black-hearted, after all, Xiangjiang is a testing ground, and the production cost of mobile phones is not that much at all.

If you don't count various patent fees, the cost price of a Kirin mobile phone is about 800 Hong Kong dollars.

The reason why Motorola set such a high price is purely because it wants to recoup the cost as soon as possible - at this time, they never thought that mobile phones could make so much money for them.

Of course, in addition to manufacturing costs, in addition to royalties, there are also high operating costs, such as labor, transmission towers, etc., which should be taken into account in the selling price and service fees.

In later generations, the fees charged by the three major operators in China were so high, in fact, more than half of them were paying for infrastructure.

Otherwise, there will be no signal in those remote third- and fourth-tier cities, those villages, and those around the mountains and rivers.

Why is the signal coverage in the United States so much weaker than in China?

Why does the signal suddenly weaken when leaving cities and densely populated areas?

Isn't it because their operators won't set up a large number of signal base stations in those unnecessary places?

They won't do anything without profit.

And the three major operators in our country have this task and must do it.

From this point of view, it is inevitable that China's national network era is coming, surpassing other countries and becoming the world's first.

After considering everything, including summoning the senior management of Xiangjiang Telephone and discussing it more than ten times, Leyiling finally made a decision and set a suitable price.

The price of a Kirin mobile phone is 8888 Hong Kong dollars, and the basic monthly payment fee is 500 Hong Kong dollars, in addition, the call time is tentatively set at 1 Hong Kong dollars per minute.

The price of the mobile phone is definitely profitable.

However, according to the current base of 15,000 users, as long as a phone call exceeds ten minutes in a row, then the Xiangjiang telephone company loses money, and the longer the call, the more it loses.

This decision was made by Leyiling.

She has also served as the chairman of the board of directors of Heung Kong Telephone and Heung Kong Electric Company.

In fact, as long as the senior management knows, with this plan, only Kirin Communications will benefit.

Because they are responsible for the production of mobile phones, and the price of 8888, even after excluding patent fees and other expenses, is already more than 500% profit.

Heung Kong Telephone Company is responsible for the construction and maintenance of 60 radio towers, as well as all operating costs.

On the other hand, what did Heung Kong Telephone Company get?

It's just a payment fee of 500 Hong Kong dollars per customer, and you have to lose money after a long call.

Therefore, the Xiangjiang telephone company lost a lot of money.

But they can't help it, because this is an order given by the chairman, and if anyone doesn't want to do it, then get out.

Don't doubt it, Sister Le's title of Queen of Music was not earned for nothing.

Her gentleness is only used on Yin Jun and her family, and she is very tough on others.

And Leyiling is not a random showdown.

At first glance, the Heung Kong Telephone Company is very loss-making, but who implements new technologies and models will not have a huge loss experience?

To put it simply, Coca-Cola's sales in the first year were only 25 bottles!

Speaking of the Xiangjiang Telephone Company itself, when they first implemented home telephones, they also experienced many years of losses, and it took more than ten years to start making profits?

If mobile phones can be developed well, the more people who use them, then the more money they will make.

According to the current price, as long as more than 200,000 people are employed, then the Heung Kong Telephone Company can achieve breakeven.

If it exceeds 300,000 people, then they will definitely make money.

With more than 500,000 people, it's a very profitable business.

If more than 1 million people use mobile phones, Heung Kong Telephone Company will surely become one of the most profitable companies in Heung Kong.

And Xiangjiang's mobile phone users will surely exceed 1 million, this is Yin Jun's speculation.

"If any of you think that my family's Ah Jun's foresight is insufficient, you can stand up and oppose it. That's what Queen Le said at the time.

In fact, as soon as everyone heard that Yin Jun predicted that there would be more than 1 million mobile phone users in Xiangjiang, they had already agreed to take this risk.

Because Yin Jun has never failed.

Even this time the crisis of the real estate crash, Yin Jun has already said it, but people don't believe it.

Before Yin Jun failed, the people on the phone in Xiangjiang naturally had to believe Yin Jun.

If you don't believe it, there's no way.

Although Heung Kong Telephone Company is a listed company, the majority shareholder holds all the power.

Even if they go to make a fuss and make trouble at the enlarged shareholders' meeting, do you say those shareholders and shareholders believe in Yin Jun or believe in them?

Who doesn't know that there is meat to eat with Yin Jun?

Kowloon Bus borrowed billions of dollars in the past few years, causing such a big loss, but the shareholders just trusted Yin Jun and clung to the stocks in their hands.

The result?

Not many stocks were spared from this super stock market crash, but the shares of Kowloon Bus did not surprisingly fall much, but only fell by about 20%.

Of all the stocks with the fewest declines, Kowloon Motor Bus can be ranked in the top 10!

The reason is not simple is that Yin Jun is the largest shareholder of Kowloon Bus Bus, and a very important part of the reason is that the bus routes decided by Yin Jun have now begun to end their losses and slowly enter a breakeven period.

Once all the residents are in charge and the houses and commercial facilities along the surrounding roads are completed, it is certain that these buses will become very busy routes, and it is only natural to make money.

With the encouragement of the Kowloon Bus Bus, the senior management of Heung Kong Telephone naturally felt that they could give it a go.

Anyway, they've already experimented with the benefits of mobile phones.

Although the call effect is not as clear as that of a landline, it is convenient and fast, and the benefits of being able to find a person at any time can cancel everything out.

Xiangjiang people are very time-sensitive in doing business.

A lot of business is a race for time.

If you can save them time and be one step ahead of others, there will definitely be people who are willing to buy a mobile phone to use.

Nowadays, mobile phones are very expensive, the basic cost of each month is also expensive, and the cost of calls is also expensive.

But the more people use it, these costs will be reduced.

At that time, many white-collar workers will be able to use it.

The next step is to expand to the entire work community...... How 500,000 users should also have it.

Thinking of such a bright future, the senior management of Xiangjiang Telephone can only grit their teeth and persevere, hoping to see a better tomorrow.

They only hope that Yin Jun will not be wrong in his prediction, otherwise it is possible that the entire Xiangjiang Phone will go bankrupt.

With the current market value of Heung Kong Telephone and its profitability, the loss of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars a year cannot be maintained for a few years!
