Chapter 1022: Carriages and Sports Cars
"Okay, that's it, let's talk about it later!"
Dropping this sentence, Liu Haiyang categorically went offline and took a shower.
"Hey, this guy!" Atletico shook his head helplessly, feeling disgusted by the other party's forgetfulness.
What's even more annoying is that others are happily living with their sisters in their arms, but they have to stay up late and work overtime, which is really annoying to think about.
After finally taking a look at the scenery of the Dongjiang River at night, Atletico Madrid retreated and turned around and came to the computer desk.
The computer monitor on the desktop had long been removed so as not to block the view of the MG180 lens across the table.
With this semi-panoramic camera that supports a frontal 180-degree viewing angle, plus Bee glasses as a display and a Bee phone that provides computing and transmission functions, it is possible to form a simple holographic conference system, although there are still shortcomings, but there are also many highlights.
In fact, Atletico's main task tonight was to meet remotely with his subordinates in order to coordinate the development of the Rittal president.
This mobile phone is Rittal's first product developed in a global partnership, and many of Bee Mobile's elite soldiers have joined it, as well as Atletico Madrid, the father of Bee Mobile, to provide the necessary technical and resource support.
Considering the seven- or eight-hour time difference between China and the UK, as well as the high resistance of foreign employees to overtime pay, the company had to arrange for the domestic team to work overtime regularly in the evenings to participate in online meetings in order to maintain smooth communication and ensure that the development process of the new President series did not go wrong.
However, this rosy expectation is doomed to be disappointed, and the two teams have very different aesthetics, values, and desire to control the dominance, and quarrels are inevitable. As long as the two groups of people get together, it is basically a small quarrel for three days and a big quarrel for five days, and there are few times when people are clean.
This is the case tonight, in front of the big boss, they quarrel again, and the problem is still the same as usual.
Just like the dispute between the "Sword Sect" and the "Air Sect" of the Huashan faction, there is a huge difference between the two sides on the core positioning of the Rittal president's mobile phone: Bee Mobile believes that the "president" is first and foremost a mobile phone, and a bee mobile phone, and then a luxury product, while the British team has the opposite view, feeling that it is first and foremost a luxury, so it strongly opposes the current simple appearance because it is not well inlaid with diamonds.
Atletico was interested in listening to it at the beginning, and mediated one or two by the way, but when he got to the back, he felt impatient, and happened to encounter the player's screen swiping incident, so he resorted to "being scolded", jumping out of the car and slashing people in the game halfway, and releasing the boredom in his heart. waited until he got off the game, and was dragged by Lao Liu to chat online for a while, and only now did he have time to return to the meeting.
Sitting upright in a chair and tapping on the frame of the Holo1 glasses, a bunch of translucent figures quickly appeared in front of Atletico's eyes.
All of them wore the same glasses on their faces and were arguing fiercely.
Seeing this scene, Atletico frowned slightly, and secretly said that these people can really be fried, and they have been fighting back and forth for nearly an hour, and they still have the strength to continue arguing.
Pulling up the minutes of the meeting and looking through them, seeing that there was nothing new, Atletico high-fived to attract attention, "Ladies and gentlemen, you have been discussing for so long, can you tell me what the results are?"
Everyone was silent, and the results were naturally gone, and the differences between the two sides were too great to be reconciled at all.
With his eyes swept over the faces of a group of Asian faces, Atletico looked at the white faces again and asked, "Colleagues in the UK, do you have anything to say?"
Being looked at by him like this, the British employees looked at each other and didn't know what to say. On his side, he argued with reason and put forward a lot of opinions and arguments, but the big boss lost his public heart and always supported the gang on the other side, so that they were always unable to suppress/convince the other party. Now that the big boss asked such a question, everyone was embarrassed and at the same time, there was also some anger faintly: "Isn't it all your fault?"
Finally, a middle-aged man with an artist's temperament raised his hand and took the lead in speaking: "Boss, we still stick to our previous opinion and disagree with the No. 3 appearance plan. β
"Why?" Atletico turned to look at the phantom, "or has it not inherited the classic elements and is not good at diamond-setting rhetoric?"
Although the translucent lenses blocked his eyes, the impatience and ridicule in his tone were successfully accepted by the white man. A hint of anger appeared on the latter's face, then turned to a wry smile, and finally became flat, and nodded calmly: "Yes, I think Plan 3 is terrible, it looks no different from your previous phones! Of course, I don't think they are ugly, I just hate being the same, Rittal phones should be unique and unique, not the current industrial products." β
Atletico didn't speak, looking at him and his companions with a smirk.
He didn't speak, but no one on the domestic team pretended to be dumb, and soon a female designer stood up: "High screen-to-body ratio, curved screen, light weight, and long battery life are today's development trends, and our design fully follows these principles, and there is no problem at all." β
The beauty spoke, and other colleagues immediately helped, and some clichΓ©d sentences appeared again, making Atletico's eyebrows tighten again.
"No, no, no," Hearing the other party mention the sales and net profit of Rittal and Jingcarbon, Rittal could no longer sit still, and people kept coming down to face it. Naturally, there are a few words of ridicule such as "I can do it".
As a new product led by Bee Mobile, the Rittal President series has a global R&D team specially formed for it, among which the main force is all Bee Mobile's own elite soldiers. On the contrary, the staff from the Rittal team is pitiful, and they are also responsible for the access coordination of value-added services such as Rittal Club and Rittal Butler, as well as the decoration and adjustment of the appearance and UI interface, which are quite far away.
Bees move naturally for reasons to do so.
After Nokia and before Bee Mobile, Rittal had two successive owners, private equity funds and security companies, because it was not that the mobile phone companies had no one in their hands, so they could only choose to trust the original team, and then poach an executive from the luxury industry to come over as CEO.
It's just a pity that their "trust" did not pay off well.
The trend of smart touch brought about by Apple's iPhone has made Rittal, which is good at making a fuss about the case and keyboard materials, feel at a loss.
Under the leadership of the new CEO, Rittal has launched new products such as SignatureTouch and aster_t, trying to introduce mainstream technical features such as capacitive touchscreens, 4G-LTE and Android, while trying to maintain its proud luxury appearance. However, users would rather buy a more convenient gold-plated iPhone than use a diamond-encrusted Android, and the sales of the painstakingly developed new products were dismal, so the new owner had to sell at a reduced price in order to stop the loss, and went around and around into the hands of Bee Mobile.
Bee Mobile has the world's third largest mobile system, and it also has a new star of ultra-high-end mobile phones such as Crystal Carbon, which costs more than $10,000 and has sold more than one million in cumulative sales.
They first flown in 500 pairs of bee glasses3 to the UK, where they distributed one to each of the engineers and mechanics working at the Rittal factory, and revamped their proud 'Handmade-In-England' with an AR production system to improve production efficiency and reduce scrap rates.
Immediately afterwards, Bee Mobile contacted Beesoft and entrusted the maintenance of related software to the latter, optimizing the software to improve the experience, and paving the way for a full migration to the Bee platform in the future. Users of Rittal mobile phones are both small and expensive high-quality resources, so naturally they can't push updates directly like Microsoft.
Then, Bee Mobile proposed a new president series plan, and for this purpose, it will set up a global R&D team. Because of the pursuit of R&D speed, President is modified on the basis of the C4 platform, the processor is Bee Heart C4, the operating system is Bee 8 Elite Edition, the screen is a butterfly screen, and the overall ID is also a rounded full screen created by the Bee No. 1 concept mobile phone.
In the face of such a bee mobile phone with the Rittal trademark and Rittal services, the British will naturally not be satisfied, and seven are not satisfied with eight are not satisfied. Before, because of the team run-in, Atletico Madrid and Wei Huailiang could still endure one or two, but the arrogant resistance of some people for months made them feel impatient and irritable.
Clearing his throat and looking around, Atletico said aloud: "Everyone, I think it is necessary for me to review some of my thoughts about Rittal and the president. When I'm done, if there are any other gentlemen or ladies who have any comments, you can talk to Mr. Robert and Ms. Williams. β
The two people he talked about, namely Rittal's new HR director and the new CEO, plus the CFO Alvin, who was also appointed by Bee Mobile, basically achieved control over the three powers of personnel and finance. Atletico's intention when it comes to the head of human resources is obvious: if you don't agree with the idea, you might as well find another job!
Hearing the big boss release the squid move, the virtual conference room suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Atletico Madrid, trying to guess his thoughts.
"As you can see, even though it's been five years since Rittal left Nokia, your designs still can't break out of the old system and you can see Frank Novo everywhere. It is true that Novo is a good designer, and he has left a lot of classic designs for Nokia and Rittal, but in my opinion his ideas are outdated and not suitable for the current Rittal!"
"What is Novo's design?" said Atletico waving his hand, and a bunch of floating images appeared around him, showing many of Novo's designs over the past decade or so, both when he was Nokia's chief designer and when he set up a studio to go it alone.
With his gestures, the photos suddenly exploded and flew in front of everyone to pick them up. Without exception, they all have hard and straight lines, as well as inlays and splicings that highlight the characteristics of the material itself, which look hard and manly, but they are also soft and not friendly enough. These features are also present on Rittal phones, and if it weren't for the soft leather and glittering gemstones to neutralize them, Rittal would have lost the majority of female users.
In addition, what makes Atletico the most unaccustomed is his disregard for the geek spirit. Under his control, Rittal phones only select the most stable and basic functions, but have no interest in pursuing high-tech technology. According to this person's opinion, Rittal mobile phones are first of all luxury goods, followed by mobile phones, as long as the functions are enough, the important thing is that the appearance is unique, tasteful, and high-grade.
Before 07, there was no problem with such positioning, and the slow 3G network and low hardware performance led to minimal functional differences in mobile phones, and the luxury appearance and high-end private services that Rittal featured were the right time. However, when touch-screen smartphones and mobile Internet begin to popularize at a high speed, such a slow and leisurely rhythm will kill people, and it will become a luxury carriage in the automobile era and a luxury cruise ship in the jet aircraft era in minutes.
In particular, Rittal has also joined the Android camp, which is known for its often insufficient hardware and is easy to be stepped on.
"Due to the limited market demand, the evolution of the luxury industry is relatively slow and steady, and the value of the product is also very strong. However, this is not the case with the mobile phone industry! Hardware performance is constantly evolving, and user needs are also evolving, and we also need to continuously improve performance and experience, and we can't be a luxury carriage that has rarely changed for tens or hundreds of years. β
A brown-haired designer couldn't help but chime in, "Boss!"
"Well, Ryan, what do you want to say?"
The latter nodded, and continued: "I admit that your previous analysis makes a lot of sense, and we really don't pay enough attention to technological progress. However, the situation is different now, we have the C4 chip, and we don't have to worry about running out of processors for at least ten years. That way, we have every time to calm down and build a phone that won't be out of date in 10 years' time. β
"There's not much time left," Atletico shook his head, "are any of you using a BlackBerry?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison, what the virtual keyboard can do, why use the qbsp that occupies space; Nodding slightly, Atletico said: "You see, ten years ago, nine-key and full-key keyboards were still the mainstream. Within a few years, however, keyboards disappeared from mobile phones, even though BlackBerry was still using QBSP;" The development of technology is very rapid, and mobile phones will inevitably change a lot after ten years, and it is wrong to blindly pursue how many years will not be outdated. In my opinion, Rittal should always be positioned to be better, like those supercars that are constantly pushing the limits, so that they can interact and cooperate with our production models. β
Supercars are the first to apply advanced technology, cover high production costs with high selling prices, and later decentralize technology to production vehicles, diluting R&D costs with high production, which is a right path that automakers have taken. Poor Nokia mobile phone went crooked, and then stepped on the wave of technological innovation. Although after selling the factory and laying off employees, relying on the old foundation of the base station business to live a fairly good life, it hurt the Finns.
