Chapter 902: Meizu

"Xiao Ning, you won't think of a new business, right?"

Chen Qingqing knew Zhang Ning best, and after listening to a few words, he seemed to understand.

"Hehe, you are worthy of knowing me, Qingqing."

"Cut, come less, I don't know what bad thoughts you have in your stomach. Say, say, what do you want to do after you're ready to resign from all your positions at Penguin. ”

"I can't say that."

Zhang Ning shook his head and did not disclose it for the time being.

"Ah, Xiao Ning, even I keep it a secret."

Chen Qingqing pretended to be angry and glared at Zhang Ning.

"Qingqing, how could it be, it's just that I haven't thought about this business yet. Moreover, now that I have retired from all my positions in Penguin, it is not convenient for me to immediately devote myself to other industries, and I also want to be quiet. I want to think about it first, and when I'm mature when I'm thinking about it, I'll study it with you. ”

"It's so mysterious, okay, I won't ask you. By the way, you have resigned from your position, where are you going to go in the future? ”

"I'm not going anywhere, I'm going to stay at home."

"Stay?"

"Why, can't you?"

"Xiao Ning, can you stay?"

Chen Qingqing couldn't believe it.

"Why can't you stay, Qingqing, you know, if you really stay, I'm more homely than an otaku. Besides, it's not like you don't know, but I have a lot of hobbies. Let me tell you, I'm going to write a novel recently. Mmmm, I've figured out all the genres. I believe that this is a very. ”

"Fiction."

Chen Qingqing burst into tears again, "Xiao Ning, you are ready to do your job again." ”

After speaking, Chen Qingqing quickly said, "However, I like the novel, I want to be the first to read it." ”

"Of course, after I finish writing, I will be the first to show you."

……

Writing novels is just a cover-up, how could Zhang Ning focus on writing novels.

Even if Zhang Ning really wanted to write a novel, at this moment, Zhang Ning would only put this matter aside for the time being.

Now Zhang Ning opened the document and began to write a new business plan.

Cell phone.

Smartphones.

The next business that Zhang Ning wants to enter is the smartphone plan.

That's right, what Zhang Ning said about a different way of playing is exactly what he is referring to.

In this world, smartphones have long appeared.

Not to mention Nokia's N95 system, if you put the time back, in 1993, IBM had already launched the world's first smartphone. IBM named this smartphone Simon at that time, and many people may not think that compared with the current Nokia smartphone, IBM's Simon is more creative. For example, Simon was the world's first smartphone to use touch skills, which is already the prototype of a later smartphone.

However, whether it is Simon or Nokia's N95, they are not smartphones in the true sense of the word.

In other words, there is no one in the world who can define what a smartphone is, except for Zhang Ning.

This is a smartphone that can make phone calls and work online.

Unlike traditional smartphones, real smartphones will have independent processors, independent operating systems, and extremely powerful expansion functions.

Zhang Ning gave a preliminary definition of smartphones.

Yes, Zhang Ning has wanted to enter the smartphone segment for a long time.

It's just that Zhang Ning has always felt that the timing is not right.

In addition, Zhang Ning still has a lot to do before, and the smartphone business can only be slowed down.

However, in the recent battles with the world's major giants, Zhang Ning has already found out. According to the traditional IT model, it is impossible for Penguin to truly defeat these giants.

Take Microsoft as an example, a Windows, although Zhang Ning has a plan, Zhang Ning still doesn't dare to say that he can leverage the status of Microsoft Windows.

In addition, there is Intel, when it comes to this name, Zhang Ning can only smirk.

Compared to the operating system, having a domestic CPU is like a dream.

Not to mention now, even in 2014, China has not really created a CPU of its own.

As for search engines, instant messaging...... At this time, I also encountered countless troubles.

Just one of them, Zhang Ning has some headaches.

Not to mention, there's a bunch of them in the back.

Therefore, if you fight with these companies according to the traditional IT gameplay, Zhang Ning will definitely not succeed.

For this reason, Zhang Ning thought of smartphones.

A smartphone with an independent operating system, independent memory, and CPU, his birth shocked the world.

At the same time, the advent of smartphones has also broken the pattern of the traditional IT situation in the previous decades.

In the era of smartphones, no matter how powerful the world was before, and no matter how much this company monopolized the world back then. If you don't follow this very innovative product, then, in the future, you will be a complete failure. An example of the afterlife, Bibi is the one. Nokia, Motorola, Microsoft, Intel, IBM, ...... and so on, they are all half a beat slower to respond in the era of smartphones, and they are constantly being surpassed by latecomers.

This is also the reason why Zhang Ning entered the smartphone.

However, smartphones are too innovative, and smartphones involve too much content, whether it is hardware or software, they will have a revolutionary change. It took a very long time for Zhang Ning to arrange these things. At the same time, because smartphones are too shocking, Zhang Ning is even more reluctant to let some other giant companies focus on this area, and Zhang Ning has resigned from all Penguin companies.

After staying at home for a month, Zhang Ning finally got up.

Whew, it's finally written.

Looking at the plan he had written in the past month, Zhang Ning was very excited.

If all the content in the planning can be successfully made one by one, then Zhang Ning can be regarded as completing his dream - creating a zĂ o Internet empire.

"Looks like we'll have to find a helper."

After saving the plan, Zhang Ning decided to find a helper when he started to implement the smartphone plan.

There are many reasons for this.

There are so many things involved in the smartphone business that Zhang Ning needs a helper to help him.

In addition, the smartphone plan also needs to be promoted without attracting everyone's attention, and Zhang Ning is not easy to show up.

Who to turn to?

Green?

No way.

Qingqing is also in charge of the penguin company, how can she have time to manage the penguin company.

Moreover, Qingqing's goal is too obvious, and it is not suitable to be his helper.

Yes, not only Qingqing, but no one in Penguin.

If you want to do it, you can be secretive, in order not to attract the attention of others, Zhang Ning does not use any staff of Penguin.

Only, who to turn to?

Zhang Ning couldn't help but set his sights on the domestic smartphone cattle in later generations.

Lei Jun.

Go without saying.

In later generations, the most well-known figure in domestic smartphones was Lei Jun.

The Xiaomi mobile phone series developed by him has become the leading product of domestic mobile phones, and for a time, in later generations, many people regarded Xiaomi as China's Apple. Moreover, there are also many fans who call Lei Jun Rebus.

Of course, Xiaomi naturally can't compare with Apple, and Lei Jun can't compare with Jobs.

In fact, Xiaomi mobile phones have a lot of content that is overly plagiarized from Apple.

But in any case, Lei Jun is still a tycoon-level figure in the smartphone industry.

Moreover, Lei Jun has a very good business philosophy.

The marketing of hungry rice, which was hated by countless people in later generations, was vividly played by Lei Jun.

At present, Lei Jun is still in Jinshan Company.

It is an antivirus and software development company. Although Kingsoft used to be the king of national IT enterprises, in the Internet era, Kingsoft has increasingly lost its status as a domestic IT enterprise. If you go by yourself at this time, you can really pull Lei Jun into your camp.

It's just that after thinking about it for a while, Zhang Ning shook his head.

No way.

Lei Jun is indeed a domestic smartphone tycoon in later generations, but Lei Jun's success is more in product operation.

In other words, the success of Xiaomi mobile phones in later generations does not lie in the product, but in his operation.

In fact, Xiaomi phones don't have much innovation.

Moreover, there are a lot of places in Xiaomi mobile phones, and there are traces of plagiarism from others.

Although this is nothing, most of the domestic smartphones are copied by you and me, and I will copy you, in order to grab the territory, any trick is used. Moreover, at that time, China also turned a blind eye to plagiarism. If plagiarism can be snatched back first, and it will no longer be scraped by foreign companies, even if it is the domestic government, I am afraid it will be supported.

The road to smartphones is actually the road to innovation.

The reason why Apple rose in later generations is not that he launched the first iPhone, but that every iPhone he launched in later generations is an innovation and innovation.

Now that the smartphone market has not yet appeared, Zhang Ning must also rely on one innovation after another to attract users.

From this point of view, Lei Jun is not particularly suitable.

Moreover, Lei Jun is very ambitious, and he is not particularly suitable for Zhang Ning.

Take the Jinshan company where Lei Jun stayed.

Jinshan was created by Qiu Bojun, and Lei Jun was just a manager of Jinshan Company.

In other words, Qiu Bojun is the boss, and Lei Jun is just a part-time worker in Jinshan Company.

Admittedly, Lei Jun is very genius, and his ability is very outstanding.

However, Lei Jun's ambitions are too big.

In the past few years in Jinshan, Lei Jun has fought with the founder Qiu Bojun for dozens of rounds.

It wasn't until 2010 that the winners and losers were divided.

In order to ask Bojun to retire and no longer care about Jinshan, Lei Jun became the chairman of Jinshan Company, which was over.

This looks like a cup.

The founder of Kingsoft was forced to retire by a job.

In addition, Jinshan was also sold to Teng/Xun in later generations.

Although Zhang Ning doesn't know how many shady scenes there are, Zhang Ning is also very uninterested in this anti-customer-oriented style.

Of course, this is not about Lei Jun's character.

Business struggles are like this, and they have nothing to do with character, but Zhang Ning prefers the kind of genius who serves the company wholeheartedly.

People like Lei Jun will mix well anywhere, and there is no need to follow him.

Although there was some reluctance, Zhang Ning still got rid of Lei Jun.

Then, in addition to Xiaomi's Lei Jun, the mobile phones of later generations have done well, and only Huawei and HTC are left.

It's a pity that these two companies, one is a family business, and the other is a giant in the domestic IT industry. Whether it's HTC or Huawei, it's unlikely that they'll come to help Zhang Ning. In addition, later generations of HTC and Huawei were marked by the image of the company, and everyone recognized the brands of these two companies. As for HTC and Huawei, there is no character who can be compared with Lei Jun.

Huawei and HTC denied, and Zhang Ning suddenly became unsure of who to look for.

In later generations, the development of domestic smartphones was relatively backward, and with the supergiant Apple under its cover, any genius was dwarfed by Jobs.

Damn, I can't even find a helper, where have all the domestic geniuses gone.

Zhang Ning was a little depressed.

Think about it in the United States some time ago, it was really a few steps to meet a genius.

Not to mention those geniuses who have become famous, there are countless geniuses in countless American colleges and universities alone.

Just like Mark, wasn't he also excavated by Zhang Ning when he was at Harvard?

Just when Zhang Ning was depressed, suddenly, Zhang Ning thought of another company.

Meizu.

Before Xiaomi mobile phones, Huawei and other smartphones were popular, Meizu mobile phones were a top product of domestic smartphones. At that time, many people were waiting for Meizu to become a giant company like Apple. It's a pity that Meizu's mobile phone innovation is innovative, but the technology is congenitally insufficient, coupled with the shortage of funds, Meizu, which has great potential, is slowly ranked in Xiaomi, Huawei, HTC...... After waiting for the smartphone.

However, overall, Meizu phones are still very innovative. Moreover, Meizu mobile phone is also one of the first companies in China to enter the smartphone industry. In 2008, Meizu had already entered the smartphone program, only a little later than Apple. In addition, the successful launch of the M8, which caused a frenzy in China at that time.

It should be said that Meizu is still very discerning in the entire smartphone.

In addition, Huang Zhang, the founder of Meizu, although not particularly well-known, is also a rare genius.

For this reason, Zhang Ning began to look for information about the "Yellow Chapter".

Huang Zhang is not very old, born in 1976, because of his obsession with video games, Huang Zhang was not admitted to university, only has a high school degree. To be precise, Huang Zhang didn't even graduate from high school, and when he was a freshman in high school, he didn't know why, and Huang Zhang was expelled from school. Huang Zhang's father kicked him out of the house and left Huang Zhang to fend for himself, and then Huang Zhang went to Shenzhen/Shenzhen to work alone.

Before entering the electronics industry, Huang Zhang did a lot of work, and also did a lot of low-paying jobs, such as dock porters. By chance, Huang Zhang came into contact with the electronics industry, and his first job was selling computers. Because of his outstanding performance, Huang Zhang was promoted to store manager. Soon, after becoming the manager of a computer store, Huang Zhang sensitively discovered a lot of common relationships between computers and schools. To this end, Huang Zhang opened up the relationship between dozens of colleges and universities, and with the help of colleges and universities to sell computers, Huang Zhang became the domestic computer sales champion at that time...... Later, Huang Zhang moved from a computer company to an MP3 company, and in 2001, Huang Zhang became the company's manager. Under the leadership of Huang Zhang, the MP3 produced by this unknown company has won the great love of the domestic people. Later, because of the disagreement with the company's shareholders, Huang Zhang left the company.

In 2002, with an investment of 100,000 yuan, Huang Zhang founded Meizu Technology and began to sell Meizu MP3.

In just two years from 2002 to 2004, Meizu successively launched Music, Card, and Miniplayer...... and other models, defeating all MP3 manufacturers at home and abroad in one fell swoop, and becoming the first brand of MP3 in China.

Looking at Huang Zhang's series of information, Zhang Ning was even more interested.
