Chapter 1344: Marching into Japan
readx;
Monthly sales of more than one million does not mean that the annual sales can exceed 10 million, the account is not calculated like this, but if a mobile phone can achieve more than one million sales in the first month of listing, it is basically a sure thing to achieve more than 6 million sales in the next year, and even break through 8 million There is a lot of hope, of course, if you are willing to spend money on promotion, it is not without a chance to break through 10 million.

Why, because there is a huge symbolic meaning in this: a smartphone can achieve more than 10 million sales worldwide, which means that the market for smartphones has really opened up, and this is 2003! A smartphone can achieve annual sales of more than 10 million data, which can be said to be the beginning of the era of smart phones.
Fu Dong was obviously much more optimistic about "Ming" and "Milestone" than Lin Zheng, and he nodded: "I have to wait for two days, but I have contacted the investigation company, and they think it is very optimistic." ”
"Optimism is a good thing, but the results of the investigation company can only be used as a reference," Lin Zheng advised: "This market is very large, and we still can't make the cake bigger by ourselves, Fu Dong, you have to work hard for a while to try to talk about the system orders of several mobile phone manufacturers." ”
"Boss, don't worry," Fu Dong nodded, and said, "We strive to let Alcatel choose more of our LinuxForphone, and try to reduce the number of installed computers of Windowsmobile2003......"
After a pause, Fu Dong explained: "Alcatel is actually more inclined to choose our linuxforphone system, the licensing cost of our system is not only cheap, the requirements for system hardware are not high, and the operation fluency is significantly better than Microsoft's windowsmobile2003, that is, we have never made an operating system before, Alcatel is still a little skeptical about our level," Speaking of this, Fu Dong said self-deprecatingly:" It's not Mr. Linuxtorvalds who is not in charge, James. Mr. Galvin joined the team. Alcatel doesn't dare to sign with us yet. ”
"But that's always a good start, right?"
"That's right, this is a very good start," Fu Dong also cheered up. "Boss, next we plan to shift our focus to Japan and Southeast Asia. ”
"Huh?" Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, it is the company's established strategy to first Europe and then Asia, but now Fu Dong has decided to slow down the actions of Europe, but to exert his strength in the Japanese market? Although there is something strange in my heart. But Lin Zheng still decided to listen to what Fu Dong had to say first.
"Nokia and Ericsson is the founding enterprise of the symbian alliance, it is almost impossible for us to win Nokia and Ericsson, in the remaining European brands, Alcatel has been taken down by us, Siemens is waiting to see the market performance of our linuxforphone, the second-tier mobile phone brand has also been won by us about half, we analyze that it is unlikely to make a breakthrough in Europe in a short period of time, in this case, it is better for us to turn around and focus on the Japanese and Southeast Asian markets. Strive for breakthroughs in Japan and Southeast Asia. After speaking, Fu Dong looked at Lin Zheng with some apprehension.
Lin Zheng was still surprised at first, but when he heard Fu Dong say this, he also felt that their analysis was indeed reasonable.
Thanks to the booming performance of Lisheng's smart and semi-smart phones in the market during this period, the enthusiasm of mobile phone manufacturers for smart phones in this period is obviously much stronger than in the same period in history, last month Lianchuang Technology just won the largest telecommunications company in Europe: Alcatel, Alcatel agreed that in the future, the smartphones they produce will be selectively equipped with Lianchuang Technology's Linux Forphone system and ICQ store.
This means that Alcatel will still choose Microsoft's windowsmobile2003 system, for this situation Fu Dong is also helpless, no way, Microsoft has proved itself in the desktop operating system for 20 years. Although their previous windowspocket2002 scum is a mess, windowsmobile2003 also has cumbersome operation, the system is unresponsive, in the case of the same hardware configuration, both the smoothness of the system and the ease of operation can not be compared with the LinuxForphone of Lianchuang Technology, but it can't stand the Europeans naturally trust the Americans more. But it doesn't matter, the market will tell them whether they should choose LinuxForphone or Windows Mobile 2003.
That's right, it is indeed the established policy of Lianchuang Technology to promote the Linux smartphone operating system to the world, first Europe and then Asia, but in the case of no way to make much breakthrough in the European direction, it seems that it has become an inevitable choice to shift the battlefield to Asia.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Zheng first affirmed Fu Dong's approach and subjective initiative: "The idea is good. The market is up to you, and since you think it's time to go ahead and conquer the Japanese and Southeast Asian markets, do it...... Well, have you been in contact with our partners before? ”
Lin Zheng's partner, is in the ICQ mobile client just launched in the two years, choose to spend money on the ICQ mobile client Kyocera Co., Ltd., later Panasonic, Sharp, NEC and even Sony and other Japanese mobile phone brands saw Kyocera in the United States and Japan market performance is good, have also signed contracts with ICQ, although this charging period only lasted for three years, after ICQ fully released the mobile phone with ICQ mobile client restrictions, but the cooperation at that time was not bad, after this, Although any mobile phone company can get the qualification to load the ICQ mobile phone case client for free, ICQ still takes special care of those old customers: work with them to optimize the adaptability of the ICQ mobile client, and the user's direct experience is that the brands such as Kyocera have carried the ICQ mobile client from the beginning, and the ICQ on their mobile phones is better to use.
Because of such a relationship, Lin Zheng thinks that it is a good way to break through from Kyocera first.
But Fu Dong's reaction made Lin Zheng feel a little strange, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"How?" Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows.
Kyocera ...... It doesn't seem to be of much interest," Fu Dong's appearance seemed to be explaining the matter in as euphemistic words as possible: "This time we go to Japan, we plan to contact NEC and Panasonic first." ”
"That's ......" Lin Zheng was a little surprised when he heard it: Kyocera has little interest in smartphones?
I rub!
Boss Lin suddenly remembered that the Japanese had once again made a mistake unique to the Japanese on the smartphone: stubbornness!
In the early stage of the development of smart phones, Japanese mobile phone companies disdained smart phones that required a lot of system resources and much higher hardware configuration than feature phones, and a large number of mobile phone companies in Europe and the United States chose to develop their own mobile phone operating systems or simply choose Microsoft's WindowsMobile smart phone operating system, the Japanese chose another way: on the road of feature phones, the neck stalked to the black.
I have to say that the Japanese do have a ruthless force in their bones, under this stubbornness, they have almost exhausted the potential of the feature phone, any smart phone can be equipped with more than ten or twenty different native application software, and even in the later stage, Japanese mobile phone companies have also expanded the function of the feature phone, added the JA&VA function, and allowed users to install some JA&VA mobile phone software by themselves.
After the special optimization of these software, the Japanese feature machine is even better than the smart phone in terms of operation process and subjective experience of use, but just like the smart phone will inevitably replace the feature machine, the imperfection of the early smart phone gives the Japanese feature machine the opportunity to develop, but when the smart phone shows more and more powerful functions, and the scalability is that the feature machine can not be compared with the function machine in any case, the Japanese finally suddenly began to abandon the function machine completely, and turned to enter the smart phone. But at this moment, the territory of smart phones has already been divided, where are there still Japanese people? As a result, no matter how much the Japanese can toss, they can only sigh there that "in the lost 10 years, the Japanese mobile phone industry has made too many mistakes!" "That's it.
I'm like a wipe, Lao Tzu almost forgot about such a big thing.
Seeing Lin Zheng's face changing uncertainly, Fu Dong's heart couldn't help but be raised, and he couldn't help but cautiously ask Lin Zheng: "Boss ......"
"Oh, it's okay," Lin Zheng, who was woken up by Fu Dong, suddenly woke up, since the Japanese are addicted to feature phones, let them continue to make feature phones, "With my understanding of the Japanese, they think that the current smart phones can't be called only, taking pictures, built-in music and video players, chatting and other functions that smart phones can achieve, and feature phones can all be done by adding these functions at the beginning of the design, so I guess you may not be able to make any breakthroughs." ”
"Boss ......" Before this started, the boss poured a basin of cold water, and Fu Dongdeng was a little anxious: How can you be the boss like this?
But Lin Zheng didn't give him a chance to finish, waved his hand and said: "Listen to me, the Japanese may not be interested in our LinuxForphone and Microsoft's Windowsmobile, but I am afraid they will be more interested in JA&VA, if you can't make a breakthrough on LinuxForphone, you can try JA&VA." ”
"......" looked at Lin Zheng with a determined face, and Fu Dong, who was originally unhappy, couldn't help but start beating a small drum in his heart: Really? Is there such a god?
