Chapter 946: Smartphone Conferencing
After leaving CCTV, Zhang Ning did not have a hot brain, and he was going to prepare for the establishment of a university plan.
Education is a very difficult business, and it is more complicated than any other industry.
Of course, more than that, Zhang Ning knows that there are too many problems in the education industry that cannot be solved.
For example, the issue of school qualifications.
Penguin is a private enterprise, and if you want to run a university, you can only run a private university.
This is not the most important thing, although private universities have a bad reputation in China, Zhang Ning is confident that they will run private universities well.
Moreover, the world's top universities are also private colleges, such as Harvard University.
But more critically, there is the issue of university faculty.
Where do I go to hire a teacher after running a university?
Good lecturers don't necessarily come.
What's the use of a bad lecturer, even if it's invited?
Again, there is the question of where the university is located.
In addition, there is the issue of admissions.
How to enroll, whether it is independent enrollment or enrollment according to the national unified examination.
What is the basis for independent enrollment, and should I take the exam?
Although many people have always been dissatisfied with the domestic college entrance examination system, but dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, but if there is no college entrance examination, there is no exam, how to examine whether a student is excellent or not. Is it a recommendation from the school? If so, I'm afraid there will be more unfairness inside. Or go to investigate one by one, estimating that the school cannot have so much time.
In addition, if a school is established, what kind of school should it become, which is also a key issue.
Is it science and engineering, or literature and history?
Is it a comprehensive university or a university with a single subject?
If you don't think about it clearly and don't plan it well, even if you have a lot of enthusiasm, the result will be a failure.
Zhang Ning was not anxious, but handed over the task to Chen Qingqing, and asked Chen Qingqing to find a digital research company and conduct a detailed investigation of the market first.
At this time, putting down these tasks, Zhang Ning finally had time to come to Meizu Technology again.
"Hehe, I've been out of business for a few months, presumably, I won't attract attention now."
Of course, Zhang Ning also has a backhand.
Just as, he has now asked the team to do a survey on education.
When these news are released, you can also confuse those competitors outside.
"Huang Zhang, how is it, I went to Japan, did you gain anything?"
This time, Zhang Ning called Jiahui, who was far away in Japan, and Robin to Meizu Technology to prepare for a meeting.
The smartphone business relationship is heavy, and the content involved is innumerable, and Zhang Ning must be personally responsible.
Fortunately, for a period of time, it can be regarded as a preliminary plan.
On the Japanese side, the Super Imagination mobile phone table is not bad, and Zhang Ning also transferred Jia Hui, who was originally in charge of the Penguin Animation Platform, to the headquarters of the Super Imagination Mobile Phone, responsible for the Super Imagination mobile phone. As for Huang Zhang, in addition to launching their latest mp3 recently, they are also constantly studying the latest technology in the mobile phone. Of course, there is Robin, who has begun to lead the team according to Zhang Ning's plan, and is ready to start tackling the smartphone system.
However, because smartphones are a new product after all, in addition to Zhang Ning, everyone here, including countless technological geniuses around the world, may not know a real smartphone, what should he have. Or, a smartphone, what he should look like.
Therefore, Zhang Ning asked Huang Zhang and Robin to go to Japan to inspect the mobile phone business.
"It's so rewarding."
Huang Zhang was very excited and hurriedly said, "This trip to Japan can be said to have greatly broadened my horizons." ”
"Oh, it seems that the harvest is not small, tell me."
Zhang Ning sat in the middle with interest, looked at Huang Zhang and said.
"Let's put it this way."
Huang Zhang took out a Chaoxiang mobile phone, "This is the Chaoxiang mobile phone that Jiahui is responsible for, I didn't know that there was such a mobile phone in Japan before." It's not that I don't know, I also heard the name Chaoxiang mobile phone at that time, and it is said to be more popular in Japan. However, because I have been in the mp3 business before, I haven't paid too much attention to mobile phones. Moreover, when I saw this super mobile phone before, I didn't think that there were any big features of this mobile phone. But after a trip to Japan, I came up with the following two points. ”
"The first point is that the Japanese people are more exclusive to large-screen mobile phones."
Huang Zhang held the Chaoxiang mobile phone, comparing the screen on the Chaoxiang mobile phone, "Before I saw the Chaoxiang mobile phone, I once thought that this kind of large-screen mobile phone was just a large screen, and it was not particularly distinctive. But in Japan, I found that many Japanese mobile phone manufacturers have begun to produce large-screen mobile phones. Of course, the proportion of large-screen phones in Japan is not yet significant, but I vaguely feel that there will be more and more large-screen phones in the future. ”
"Hmm."
Zhang Ning nodded and motioned for Huang Zhang to continue.
"The other is the issue of Internet speed, Japan's telecommunications industry is very developed, which is very convenient for Japan to promote mobile Internet access business. At the same time, the ultra-fast Internet speed also allows Japanese people to browse comics through their mobile phones. However, the Japanese people are still very eager to increase the speed of mobile phone Internet access. I feel that the improvement of Internet speed may bring a very big opportunity to mobile phones in the future. ”
"Not bad."
Huang Zhang's vision is really good, and as soon as he went to Japan, he found two core problems.
That's right, the difference between the appearance of smartphones and traditional smartphones in later generations, the large screen is a very important feature.
As for the other Internet speed, I am afraid, this is also the key to determining whether smartphones will be able to popularize in the future.
However, after Huang Zhang said it, Zhang Ning asked.
"Huang Zhang, since you think the big screen may be a trend in the future. So, what kind of size of large screen do you think, users like it the most. Or, how big is the phone screen that the user can accept? 2。 8 inches, or 2. 9 inches, or 3 inches, or even more than 3 inches. 1 inch? ”
At the moment, the traditional phone has always been 2. About 5 inches.
2。 5 inches is considered the most classic ratio in the mobile phone industry.
Because they believe that the phone can't be too big, too big might affect the aesthetics, at least, if the look is changed, the phone development company has to spend a lot of time redesigning the look of a phone, and do a lot of research to see if users are not interested in such a sense of size.
On the other hand, being too big also adds weight and makes it inconvenient to carry. Of course, not all mobile phone manufacturers are sticking to 2 at the moment. With a ratio of 5 inches, many mobile phone manufacturers have tried to change the size of mobile phones and launch more innovative mobile phones.
However, this is only their innovative idea, and many of them have failed, and the mainstream is still 2. 5 inches.
"I haven't studied this carefully yet."
"So, the next question, what do you think mobile phone speed can bring to mobile phones?"
"It can bring a faster Internet experience, and ......"
Huang Zhang said a lot, but except for the Internet experience, everything else is average, and there is no too in-depth research.
Huang Zhang has not yet discovered what the Internet speed or the Internet means for mobile phones.
It's not just one more feature.
Zhang Ning didn't continue to ask, and turned to Robin.
"Robin, what about you, did you find anything in Japan?"
"I didn't find much to discover, but a trip to Japan made me more determined, a smart phone system, he has become more and more important."
Robin's sentiment is not without reason.
He already had a lot of ideas about smartphones, but he only stayed on ideas.
However, after communicating with Zhang Ning, he already has a certain understanding of smartphones.
Especially after a trip to Japan, looking at the very popular Chaoxiang mobile phone in Japan, Robin believes that with the enhancement of smartphone configuration and the improvement of network speed in the future, there will be more software business in smartphones in the future. And these software, if there is a very convenient intelligent operating system to manage, then, the concept of smart phones may come out.
Robin also said his thoughts to Zhang Ning one by one.
However, Robin's view is also more one-sided.
His view of mobile apps is just a bias towards gaming.
Or maybe he thinks that mobile games are just mobile apps.
Although now, most of the apps are still dominated by mobile games.
This is also an important part of the current mobile app that can be profitable.
But for smartphones, Zhang Ning believes that application software not only includes game software, but also includes audio, video, communication, browsers, community websites, email, instant messaging, ...... and so on. In fact, that is, there is application software on the computer, and the same can be on the mobile phone. Even, there is an application on the mobile phone, but there may not be it on the computer.
Then, Zhang Ning asked about Jiahui.
Jiahui was not born in the electronic sector, he was engaged in comics.
Originally, Jiahui was not particularly suitable for being responsible for the super dream mobile phone, but Zhang Ning still chose Jiahui.
Otherwise, Zhang Ning could only choose a few recommended by Son Masayoshi to himself, or some geniuses in Japan.
However, whether it is a Japanese genius or someone on Son's side, Zhang Ning doesn't want to use it.
In the end, I had no choice but to choose Jiahui.
Fortunately, although Jiahui is not from the electronics class, she has made rapid progress since she came into contact with Chaoxiang mobile phones for a period of time. In particular, the combination of super mobile phones and comics made Jiahui see the potential of mobile phones. Yes, this time, Zhang Ning also called Jiahui over.
"Jiahui, you have been in charge of Chaoxiang mobile phone for a while now, what do you think can be done in the future of Chaoxiang mobile phone."
"I think the hardware of the super dream phone has been greatly upgraded."
"One is the processor, and we can refer to more advanced processors."
"In addition, our phone screens can continue to increase the resolution."
"In addition, the memory of our mobile phone is a little small, and many users have reported that some of them can't even fit in 3 comics."
Jiahui is obviously more researched than Huang Zhang and Robin, and several hardware configuration upgrades, according to this development, smartphones will be made sooner or later. However, Zhang Ning still asked Jiahui a few questions, but unfortunately, Jiahui also did not answer very well. The reason why he wants to improve the configuration of mobile phones is only for the needs of Japanese manga fans.
For almost two hours, Zhang Ning discussed with the three of them.
Overall, although it is not particularly satisfactory to Zhang Ning, it also makes Zhang Ning see hope.
That's pretty good.
Whether it is Huang Zhang, Robin, or Jiahui, they can see the side of the future of smartphones, and they are already ahead of others.
However, the meeting will come here, which also makes Zhang Ning think a lot.
The smartphone is a big guy and forced it out on its own, although it is okay.
But the first smartphone is too innovative, and the second company team doesn't know much about the smartphone.
Third, there are all kinds of software and hardware equipment that have not kept up.
After thinking about it, Zhang Ning decided to launch a semi-finished product first to take a look at the situation.
The so-called semi-finished products, that is, semi-smartphone products.
However, obviously, this semi-smartphone product will definitely not be a mobile phone.
"Well, when it comes to smartphones, I think we still have a lot to work on. So, today, let's talk about Meizu MP3. ”
"Meizu mp3?"
Huang Zhang was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Zhang, aren't you interested in mp3?" ”
Robin was also a little strange, but said in his heart, "It seems that I don't know much about mp3." ”
As for Jiahui, Jiahui also looked at Zhang Ning, "Okay, isn't it discussing smartphones, how did it become mp3." ”
It's just that no matter what questions they have, Zhang Ning is the boss, and whatever the boss says, they can only follow what they do.
"Hehe, I'm suddenly interested in mp3. I think that developing a good mp3 before we develop a smartphone may give us more experience in our smartphone. Of course, I know you're still a little confused, but that's okay, we'll talk about mp3 now. ”
"Huang Zhang, the latest MP3 you developed recently is very good. So, what's next? ”
"In the next step, we will continue to consolidate the market share of Meizu MP3 in China, increase and expand the market."
"Oh, do you want to enter the foreign market?"
"In fact, we have already entered the foreign market, and many countries in Southeast Asia have our MP3 brand."
"The foreign country I am talking about is not Southeast Asia, our MP3 is sold cheaply in China, and the economy of most countries and regions in Southeast Asia is not as good as ours, and it is sold cheaper, even if it seizes the market, there is not much profit. What I am talking about is entering the markets of developed countries such as Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea. ”
"Mr. Zhang, this, don't be kidding."
Huang Zhang was a little embarrassed, "We also want to enter these markets, but we can't compete with local IT companies at all." ”
"You're talking about the Apple iPod."
Apple's iPod has a very large market share in the European and American markets, although in China, Meizu beats Apple. But it's just a market share defeat, if you just count profits, Meizu may not have Apple iPod to make money. You must know that an iPod sells for more than 1,000 yuan, and Meizu's previous price of 500 yuan is considered high by everyone. That is, the latest mp3 has recently been launched, and the price has increased slightly. Not to mention the overseas market, in the European and American markets, Meizu has no chance to compete with Apple's iPod.
"It's not just Apple, it's Sony, Samsung...... and so on, they are all international first-line brands. In the field of electronic products, they are international brands and are very popular with users. ”
Huang Zhang said.
"Apple, Sony, Samsung, Huang Zhang, I don't think these electronics giants have anything, they just have been developing products for a long time and have slightly developed their own brands. But we should also know that electronic products are updated very quickly, which means that. Compared with other industries, the loyalty of electronic product users is not particularly high. When a new product comes along, the user quickly turns his attention there and becomes his user. Why don't we Meizu Technology go to the European and American markets to break through......
"And, if you want me to say, our MP3 is not necessarily inferior to them now. Even, in some places, there are more than that. ”
The latest Meizu mp3 made Zhang Ning's eyes shine at the same time, Zhang Ning also began to play the idea of mp3.
In fact, in Zhang Ning's eyes, MP3 has many similarities with smartphones.
Like his portability.
And his entertainment.
If the mp3 is added with a phone function, it is a smartphone.
Later, Apple's iPhone was also developed under the evolution of iPod, and the first Apple smartphone was developed.
Starting from mp3, and then launching their own smart phones, I believe that for Huang Zhang, who doesn't have much experience now, it will be of great help.
