Chapter 867: Press Conference

To be honest, in fact, the so-called vivoR1 mobile phone is just a copycat machine assembled with various spare parts, except for its upright tablet shape and full Chinese input function, the rest are not worth mentioning.

In terms of technical content, compared with Motorola, Nokia, and Ericsson, the three major contemporary mobile phone manufacturers, it is even more incomparable.

However, in contemporary China, which lags behind a whole era in the field of information industry, vivo mobile phone, as the first domestic mobile phone produced and marketed by Chinese mobile phone manufacturers, even if its technical content is not high, it can still be worthy of the attention of all Chinese people, because it has achieved a breakthrough in domestic mobile phones.

At two o'clock in the afternoon of July 8, 1999, the Great Hall of the People was full of people, and the entire Great Hall was hung with red banners of all sizes, and it was very festively decorated.

Shen Wei, president of Vivo, dressed up like a dog, and kept greeting VIPs and visitors coming and going in the Great Hall.

In January this year, he and OPPO President Chen Mingyong guessed boxing, the winner stayed in the Lin Group's base camp in eastern Guangdong to develop, and the loser went north to the capital to start from scratch in the north and develop a career.

Shen Wei made scissors in the guessing box, but Chen Mingyong came out of the stone, causing Shen Wei to lose and only board the train in the capital alone.

However, there is a mistake, the capital seems to be far away from the base camp of the Lin Group, but at the foot of the Son of Heaven, it has the advantage of being close to the water and getting the moon first.

First of all, it is very close to the national ministries and commissions, and can get the strong support of the Ministry of Information Industry nearby; secondly, the educational resources of Beijing are invincible in the world, and the talents are concentrated, and it is very convenient for vivo to recruit talents.

Therefore, in the case of holding two major advantages, vivo is one step ahead of OPPO, producing the first generation of vivo mobile phone R1, and preemptively achieving a breakthrough in China's domestic mobile phone, becoming a domestic mobile phone manufacturer supported by the Ministry of Information Industry.

Vivo Shen Wei waved his long sleeves and talked and laughed with every big guy who arrived at the scene, this scene fell in the eyes of OPPO Chen Mingyong, which undoubtedly made Chen Mingyong very stimulated.

I thought that I still had a first-mover advantage more than half a year ago, but I didn't expect to be overtaken by Shen Wei at the end of the year, and took the lead in launching the vivoR1 mobile phone with a tablet upright, while OPPO's flip mobile phone is still in stumbling trial production, which is really unwilling!

That's right, Lin Cheng arranged Nokia's tablet upright road for vivo mobile phones, and the future vivo mobile phones will be dominated by tablet upright shapes.

What is arranged for OPPO is Motorola's flip cover and slide cover, in short, the future OPPO mobile phone will always be inseparable from a cover.

As for the shape design patents of the tablet upright, flip and slide covers, Lin Cheng and his colleagues had already registered them as early as 1997 when they decided to enter the field of mobile phones.

In other words, in the future, if Nokia and Motorola want to use the shape of a mobile phone with a flat upright and a flip cover and a sliding cover, they will have to provide Lin Cheng with a large amount of licensing fees or patent royalties.

Of course, with Lin Cheng's foresight, he will definitely not covet the patent fees of Nokia and Motorola, and he intends to use the design patents of flat upright, flip cover, and slide cover in exchange for the advanced technology of Nokia and Motorola cores.

Especially Motorola, the world's first smart phone was developed by Motorola, if the design patent can be exchanged for smart phone development technology, then Lin Cheng preempted Jobs, priority to put smart phones out of the market is very promising.

……

Lin Cheng came to the Great Hall of the People on time at two o'clock, he did not bring a beautiful woman as a female companion, after all, the venue for the vivo mobile phone product launch conference is the Great Hall of the People, if you still copy the red carpet of the entertainment industry, it is too disrespectful to such a solemn place as the Great Hall of the People.

Jenny Li, as the person in charge of the concierge reception of the press conference, almost jumped up with excitement when she saw Lin Cheng for the first time.

Thinking back to a few months ago, she failed to seduce Lin Cheng and was exiled to the capital by Lin Cheng, originally thinking that she would have to wait several years to get ahead.

But after coming to vivo, she quickly saw that vivo was a promising company with a professional vision of marketing, so she regained her enthusiasm, and because of Lin Cheng's introduction, she was quickly appreciated by Shen Wei and sat in the high position of the marketing manager of vivo company.

After the successful development and trial production of vivo mobile phones, Jenny Li invited Liu Tao, Zhao Wei, Zhou Jielun, and Xie Lemon to shoot advertisements according to the potential customers of vivo.

Later, Jenny Li took the employees of the marketing department on a business trip from all over the country to contact four or five hundred dealers across the country, and she was specifically responsible for the specific matters of today's vivo mobile phone product launch.

It can be said that in the past half a year, Jenny Li's ability and potential have been vividly released, which has made the employees who were very dissatisfied with her airborne marketing manager at the beginning all look at her.

Now in vivo company, Jenny Li, the marketing manager, already has a huge authority, and her prestige within the company is only under Shen Wei, and she has won the recognition and respect of everyone up and down the company, and no one regards her as a lucky person who walks through the back door.

"Mr. Lin, you're here!" Seeing Lin Cheng, Jenny Li jumped in front of Lin Cheng for the first time and shouted excitedly.

"I remember you, Jenny Li, Shen Wei told me about your performance, and he praised you and regarded you as a right-hand man. Lin Cheng smiled gently.

"What about Mr. Lin, what do you think of me?" asked Jenny Li worriedly.

After half a year, Lin Cheng has already ranked third on the Forbes list of the world's richest people, and Jenny Li has a stronger idea of committing to Lin Cheng.

And Lin Cheng is also handsome, in addition to coveting Lin Cheng's huge wealth, Jenny Li is also extremely covetous of Lin Cheng's appearance.

"Hahaha! My opinion on you is 'Shibei three days should be impressive', you have really given me a big surprise in the past six months! Come on, vivo marketing manager will never be the end of your career, and I will have more significant business to deliver to you in the future. Lin Cheng said with relief.

"Lin Cheng, please rest assured, I will not let you down!" Li Zhenni suppressed the huge excitement in her heart and said excitedly.

"Well, you go and entertain the guests, I'll walk around. Lin Cheng nodded and said with a smile.

"Yes, Mr. Lin!" was drenched and inspired, Li Zhenni burst out with sky-high energy, and received the guests and distinguished guests more enthusiastically.

Bidding farewell to Jenny Li, Lin Cheng walked in the crowd with a smile, many of the people in the crowd were leaders of the Ministry of Information Industry and other ministries and commissions, Shen Wei's status in talking to them was obviously a little low, and he couldn't hold the atmosphere of the conversation.

After Lin Cheng arrived, Shen Wei was freed from many bigwigs and could concentrate on receiving his business peers.

For this, Shen Wei was naturally grateful to Lin Cheng.
