Chapter 12 Outlook

Locke played with the local tyrant gold hxphpne in his hand, compared with those products on the market now, just the appearance, the exquisite workmanship like a handicraft and the sci-fi appearance, hxphone is enough to kill all opponents in seconds, not to mention the system that now operates more smoothly.

These are all technologies in the overlord system, and more advanced ones can only be obtained after the overlord system is upgraded!

However, Locke believes that once this mobile phone is officially launched into the market, it will definitely cause a shocking sensation, because it is not only a mobile phone, but also a camera, video camera, MP3, notepad, small computer, game console and so on.

HXPHONE is equipped with a 45nm Hz processor tailored by Taiwan Electromechanical, and a motherboard produced by LinkTek for its foundry, equipped with a 2 million pixel rear camera, just from the hardware point of view, it is already very powerful.

Among the built-in application software, a collection of fantasy video, fantasy navigation, fantasy software and happy farm, happy ranch, happy restaurant, parking space grabbing and other fantasy games (also the overlord system in exchange for the future) specially developed for hxphone to change the small game, which can be said to be very rich.

In addition, the app store is constantly adding a variety of applications, from communication to entertainment, before the launch of hxphone, fantasy technology

It has commissioned a number of software companies to design and write software for it, in order to continuously enrich its own product line, so that users can have more independent choices.

In the same sentence, HxPhone is not only a mobile phone, but also an indispensable item in life.

"Boss, to be honest, I've been in the industry for many years, and I never thought that a mobile phone could be made like this!" Yang Zi on the side said to Locke with emotion.

"Technology is always developing, in the future, only we can't think of it, there is no technology can't do things, as a corporate decision-maker is to have a whimsical brain, can not be bound by the current rules!" Locke said with a smile.

After a pause, looking at the mobile phone in the lockbox, Locke thought about it, and then asked Yang Zi: "By the way, in addition to the prototype sent over, there are 30 of them, right?"

Hearing Locke's words, Yang Zi nodded a little uncertainly.

"Take out some of them and distribute them to the senior management of the group, the list, that is, the ministers in the group, and the general managers of each company, let them try it, but pay attention to confidentiality, not lose it, and hand in a user experience every week! It can be regarded as a benefit for them, and at the same time act as a tester for our products!" Locke said with a smile.

"Really, then I'll thank the boss for them!" After hearing Locke's words, Yang Zi's face suddenly showed a look of joy, when these mobile phones were sent over, he played with them a few times, and he couldn't put it down, but due to the conditions of secrecy, he didn't dare to take it out and use it casually, and now what Locke said was undoubtedly a great surprise for them.

"Even if I don't say it, you already have such a thought!" Seeing Yang Zi's joyful appearance, Locke shook his head and said with a wry smile, paused, as if he had thought of something again, and reminded him: "By the way, before giving them to them, remember to change a batch of shells, without any marking, and the color should also be distinguished from the official version, which can be regarded as an engineering machine!" "Don't worry, boss, I remember, I won't leak the news!" When it comes to confidentiality, Yang Zi still attaches great importance to it, and solemnly reassures Locke.

"By the way, how are the negotiations with the American telecommunications company going?" Locke first made a tacit look at Yang Zi, and then changed the topic and asked Yang Zi.

Although Huaxia's mobile phone market is huge, almost becoming the world's largest mobile phone market, the high-income, high-profit American market has always been coveted by all mobile phone manufacturers, and entering this huge market has always been the goal of many manufacturers.

Since 97, Huaxia's Zhongxing has been planning to enter the United States, and it was not until this year that it was difficult to land in the American market.

The United States currently has a population of 316 million, and mobile users are as high as 293 million, and the annual sales of mobile phones are 170 million.

However, compared with the domestic market, the mobile phone market in the United States is a completely different environment, which is one of the reasons why many domestic companies have been unable to open the American market.

In the American market, it is not the mobile phone manufacturers that determine the sales of mobile phones, but the mobile operators, it can be said that these operators firmly control the lifeblood of mobile phone manufacturers, and the fierce competition is also increasing year by year, especially the mergers and acquisitions between each other.

At present, in the U.S. mobile phone market, Verizon, ATT, Sprint and T-Mobile are the main operators, and their combined market share covers 89% of mobile users in the United States. The remaining 11% are small operators such as Tracfone, Cricket, Uscellular, etc.

On the U.S. side, the dominant position is the postpaid model, which is equivalent to the domestic contract system, and operators generally use a two-year contract plan and provide a large number of subsidies, so the purchase price is relatively low. It is not difficult to see that if mobile phone manufacturers want to enter the American market, they must do business with the top four operators, because they cover the vast majority of American mobile users.

The HxPhone launched by Fantasy Technology is not only aimed at the domestic target group, but also the global market, and the United States is the first goal they want to conquer the development, because of this, since the beginning of this year, Rock has sent staff to the United States to contact the four major operators to discuss the issue of cooperation......

"At the moment, we are still working hard, after all, when we talked about it before, our products have not yet come out, just relying on two mouths, it is not a simple matter to convince these capitalists who only have interests in their eyes......" Hearing Locke's words, Yang Zi had a somewhat bitter look on his face.

"At present, it is obvious that we are rejecting the second market share of AT, and the third market share of Sprint is not a clear statement, has initially reached a cooperation intention is only among the four major operators ranked last in the market share of T-Mobile, as for the first Verizon, after our product came out, they showed a certain interest, but in the level of benefit distribution of related cooperation, there is no clear intention, and now the relevant staff sent in the past are also working hard!" Yang Zi said to Locke about the current situation.

"What are you talking about?T-Mobile has already taken it?" After hearing Yang Zi's words, Locke couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then asked Yang Zi rhetorically, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Locke knows how difficult it is for mobile phones to enter the American market, just like a super-large company like Zhongxing, in order to enter the American market, it took ten years to plan, and the ups and downs are self-evident, but he didn't expect that the people on the side of Fantasy Technology had actually won one of the operators, which was definitely beyond his expectations.

Originally, in his idea, he could start with some small operators, first try to land in the US market, and then rely on its crushing advantage to strongly impact the understanding of the Americans, and finally slowly figure it out, although it is troublesome, but in Locke's view, it is the most effective way, but now Yang Zi actually told him that Letu has won T-Mobile.

Although it ranks last among the four major operators, it is also one of the four major operators.

For Locke, this was definitely a pleasant surprise.

"How did you do that?" Locke asked Yang Zi with some surprise.

"What else can I do, give up some benefits, and our products have indeed subverted their perception of the phone, Lao Mei, I am most interested in this strange digital product!" Yang Zi said to Locke with a wry smile.

Ke Luo didn't care about giving up some benefits in Yang Zi's mouth, and in his opinion, being able to enter the American market was enough to celebrate.

Even if he gave up a lot of profits, Locke believed that the profits he grabbed from the American market could still make people go crazy with excitement.

Don't forget, it's in dollars!

In fact, Locke overestimated the difficulty of entering the American market, and he learned that mobile phone brands such as Warwick and Rice suffered all kinds of obstacles and difficulties in the process of entering the United States, so he subconsciously formed this concept, but he forgot that the environment at this time and the environment in the future are different.

In the future, when two smartphone companies called Rice and Warwick are troubled, it is already the world of smart phones, and in smart phones, negative news about backdoors and privacy and security has been repeatedly exposed, and the system is also full of all kinds of virus Trojans, and the United States has implemented various restrictions on Huaxia brand mobile phones based on national communication security considerations, coupled with the image of the "China threat theory" that has always been advocated.

But now it is 2005, smart phones are still only at the level of primary intelligence such as Saipan, more mobile phones are still that kind of closed system, about information theft, more still stay in the era of "eavesdroppers", so now the United States, the restrictions on products such as mobile phones are not so serious.

Although Zhongxing's road to the United States is difficult, the competitiveness of their products in the American market is not high, and the low technology content has a non-negligible impact.

But the hxphone of fantasy technology is different, and various factors have contributed to the fact that it can enter the American market more easily, which can only be said to be a very lucky thing.

"Verizon try to contact it again, there are still two months to take them as much as possible, the matter of benefit distribution is easy to say, you can give up some of it appropriately, but these parts of the concession, as much as possible to add a deadline, after all, we went to the United States to make money, we can't always be squeezed by these vampires!"

Locke said with a serious face, and at the same time there was still some emotion in his heart, European and American countries have always had such and such prejudices against the products produced in China, and made in China has always been synonymous with cheap products, and there is also a long way to go to break this concept.

"Don't worry, boss, I know!" Yang Zi nodded.
