Chapter 260: Win-Win
Lei Jun was also noncommittal, but from his expression, Ricardo could easily see that he actually meant this, "However, I don't think so, I think that in two years from now, Lemon's value is far higher than that of IOS, as long as this goal can be achieved, the charge of 50, I think, is not high." ”
"But IOS is a combination of hardware and software, and Lemon is just a system. ”
"Yes, but it does what software can do, and if Ray is always worried about the mismatch between hardware and software, I can tell you for sure that your worries are completely unfounded, as long as your company can give me about a week to tune up before releasing a new machine. ”
Lei Jun frowned, like Xiaomi, it usually takes at least a month or so to adjust the software and hardware, but now Ricardo told him for a week!
"Is a week too short?"
"How many days do you think it took me to tune the Xiaomi MIX?"
"A week?"
"One day. ”
Well, I was successfully shown off by this kid again.
Although Lei Jun was still a little unbelievable, he felt that it was still worth a try, "Okay, since that's the case, I think that in fact, we can jointly launch a special high-end machine first, which can be equipped with the most high-end hardware configuration this year, as well as your Lemon operating system, and the price is tentatively set at 4000." ”
"If they all use the highest configuration, I think that this can be priced at the same price as the Huawei Mate series. ”
"After all, Xiaomi is taking the cost-effective route...... What do you mean......"
Lei Jun said halfway, as if he understood the meaning of Ricardo, even if the price is the same, just look at the smoothness of the mobile phone system and various hardware, it can still be able to complete the Huawei Mate series products, which is absolutely undoubted.
Although Xiaomi is taking the cost-effective route, but it is obvious that Zhitu is not, now Ricardo means, this time of the union, he should want to take Zhitu as the leading, Xiaomi is responsible for providing hardware and sales channels, in this way, once it fails, the risk taken by Xiaomi is actually not high, mainly, in fact, it is still on the side of Zhitu.
After chatting about some business details, Lei Jun and Ricardo soon reached a cooperation agreement.
Xiaomi and Zhitu jointly developed a new model, mobile phone shape design and hardware collocation, temporarily by Ricardo's side, Xiaomi side to cooperate with the mobile phone test, but in terms of mobile phone profits, Zhitu accounted for a higher proportion than Xiaomi.
Xiaomi's role in the middle is more like a dealer and hardware provider, but even so, after calculating the cost, after cooperating to launch such a high-end machine, Xiaomi's profits on the side will far exceed the profits of launching another flagship machine.
As for the shape design of the mobile phone and the hardware ......
Ricardo didn't even think about it, so he directly selected a set of design solutions from the system that he felt was OK.
In this scheme, there is no technical problem that cannot be realized at present, first of all, with the under-screen fingerprint sensing technology made by Ricardo, the proportion of the screen is more than 90%.
In addition to the front camera that can't be left behind, there is also the black border of the bezel that can be almost completely ignored, which can be said to be a real full screen!
And the reason why Ricardo chose it is because of its design, which is really beautiful, compared to these mobile phones on the market at present, it can be described as amazing, powerful CPU and memory, and operating system......
After Lei Jun finished reading Ricardo's design, he said this when he went back to a meeting with Xiaomi's engineers.
"Ricardo, he ...... Destined to be a man who wants to change the world. ”
The next day, Lei Jun handed over this detailed mobile phone design to Xiaomi's production department, and spent a day with Ricardo to complete the promotional rendering video of the new model of the mobile phone, because there was no intention to start with the purpose of mass production machines, so the two tentatively agreed that the first batch of mobile phones would only be produced 50,000 units.
Follow-up to see the market reaction and then consider whether to increase the production line.
……
After reading the cooperation agreement brought by Ricardo, Guan Qi was really so surprised that he couldn't even close his mouth, and Safufu stared at the paper agreement in his hand, as well as Xiaomi's company seal, "Awesome ord diagram, why did you really negotiate it?
"Okay, you can try, see if he fools you, or do you fool him?"
"Uh...... All right. ”
Guan Qi smiled awkwardly, although he said so, he would not really be stupid enough to think that Lei Jun was a foolish person, since Ricardo was able to reach an agreement with him, then he must have come up with something that interested him, "However, speaking of which, since you already have the design drawings, why don't you do it yourself?"
Do it yourself?
Ricardo actually thought about it.
But......
The cake of the mobile phone market is too big, to be honest, when Ricardo decided to launch such a mobile phone product that is almost cross-era, in fact, there are quite a lot of thoughts, once Lemon is born, as long as it is popular, it will definitely be able to occupy the high-end mobile phone market in a very short time!
But because of this, there must be a lot of people who envy, envy and hate, although Zhitu is doing well now, but it can only be said that it has just started, and now the only thing that really makes money in his hands is Pokemon Go, a mobile game, and the foundation is not very stable.
At this point, Ricardo needs to pull in one or two solid and reliable allies.
Therefore, he chose Lei Jun and Xiaomi.
"I can do it, but I can't do it. ”
"Speak human words!" Guan Qi said that he didn't understand at all.
"I don't have any hardware resources on hand now, and I don't know how long it will take to directly establish a sales channel from scratch, and it is also an excellent choice to be able to use Xiaomi's popularity to improve myself, and this is only a preliminary cooperation." I will definitely launch my own brand in the future, and now I am cooperating with Xiaomi, and now it seems to be at a loss, but with Xiaomi, it will not be so jealous if the pork is divided a little. ”
Ricardo lay on the big bed in the hotel, staring at the ceiling with vacant eyes, "It's just a win-win." ”
Guan Qi said that he didn't know much about the curves and curves in this, shrugged his shoulders, and helped Ricardo put away the agreement, "That'...... Now that the business is over, shall we go back directly tomorrow? Or what? Do you have any other business in the imperial capital?"
Speaking of which, Ricardo straightened up, then sat up, and smiled at Guan Qi.
