Chapter 3101: Dominating the Mobile Phone Market

w    A fight! Lin Feng knew this. Jobs and himself agreed that both sides would launch each other's new mobile phones at the same time. But what does alliance mean? What does Jobs want to do!

"Haha, Lin, I believe that you and I are the same kind of people, both want to lead an industry. The mobile phone market has been corrupted. Today's mobile phone market is all new wine in new bottles. The so-called upgrade is just a change of soup but not medicine. The mobile phone market needs new forces and new power! And this is you and me!" Jobs said loudly.

Lin Feng nodded. He was not surprised by Jobs' words. You know, in "history", the rise of "Apple" made Nokia, Motorola and other companies fall from the altar quickly, and even on the verge of death. Especially Nokia, which once became the world's most popular mobile phone manufacturer, a mobile phone manufacturer that has led the mobile phone sales for 11 consecutive years. From 1996 to the present, Nokia has been the champion of the mobile phone sales list every year, and its Nokia 1100 has sold more than 200 million units worldwide. It is the best-selling single mobile phone in history.

But all this has turned to dust because of the rise of Apple. Of course, now with himself, Lin Feng believes that Nokia and other companies will be even worse. But in this case, why does Jobs want an alliance?

"Lin, who do you think our opponent is?" Jobs asked.

Ellison listened on the side, thought about it, and blurted out, "Nokia!"

Although this field has nothing to do with Ellison, he shouldn't have intervened. But Lin Feng and Jobs are both Ellison's friends, and the three of them are sitting here. It's not a very serious negotiation, just a party, so Ellison has no taboos.

Jobs didn't look at Ellison.   Instead, he stared at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng smiled slightly.

"Nokia is very powerful, but it's a pity that when we rise. It will become history. The past strength has made Nokia a stiff tiger now. In addition to complacency and arrogance, Nokia has nothing. We can easily destroy it! Nokia is definitely not our opponent." Lin Feng said loudly.

Nokia is not an opponent? Then who is it? Ellison was stunned.

Jobs showed an approving look in his eyes. Nokia, in Jobs' eyes, has never been a rival. This mobile phone empire is now satisfied with its past glory and thinks that mobile phones are just like this. Nokia will continue to be so powerful, thinking that mobile phones can be launched in several different styles every year, with slightly upgraded screens and performance. This idea is simply stupid. How can such a company become Jobs's rival.

Jobs has an opponent in his mind, but he wants to see if Lin Feng has the same opinion as him.

"Samsung!" Lin Feng slowly uttered two words.

Jobs' eyes flashed with fanatical light. Yes. It's Samsung! This is the largest consortium in South Korea. The industry currently does not value this consortium, but Jobs is deeply touched by the terrible spirit of "Samsung". Samsung, like "Apple", is an enterprising company. Although Samsung has become a dominant company in South Korea and has a pivotal position. It can be said that even if Samsung is complacent, it can still earn countless money in South Korea. But Samsung has never been satisfied. Over the years, Samsung has been expanding, fast but not crazy, rational but not reckless.

This company will become his rival in the future.

Samsung? Ellison was stunned. Is this company as terrible as Jobs said?

Ellison frowned and thought about it, then opened his laptop and searched the Internet for information.

Samsung Group was founded in 1938 by Lee Byung-chul. Initially, it mainly exported dried fish, vegetables and fruits from the South Korean Peninsula. In the 1950s, it gradually expanded into manufacturing industries such as sugar, pharmaceuticals, and textiles, and established itself as a family-owned enterprise. Samsung Electronics was established in 1969. In the 1980s, Samsung Electronics mainly sold refrigerators. In 1986, Lee Byung-chul established the Samsung Economic Research Institute. Its subsidiaries include: Samsung Electronics, Samsung, Samsung SDS, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Samsung Corning, Samsung Networks, Samsung Fire, Samsung Securities, Samsung C&T, Samsung Heavy Industries, Samsung Engineering, Samsung Aviation and Samsung Life, etc., and are managed by the Lee family members in the family. Among them, Samsung Electronics was selected as the world's top 500 companies by the US "Fortune" magazine.

Seeing these materials, Ellison took a deep breath. What else is not involved in this company?

"Ellison, there is a proverb in Korea that Koreans have to experience three things in their lives: birth, death and Samsung." Lin Feng explained.

Birth, death and Samsung! After Ellison pondered for a while, his hair stood up all over his body. This is really a terrible company. Lin Feng knows how terrible Samsung is. In the future, "Apple" will overthrow Nokia, but Samsung will come from behind and surpass "Apple" to become the brand with the largest mobile phone market share in the world, and replace Nokia to become the mobile phone brand with the largest annual sales. But how could Jobs realize this now? In Lin Feng's memory, Jobs seemed to have never cared about Samsung. Jobs' philosophy is to develop the most advanced and creative products. Use creativity to defeat the opponent.

Now, why does Jobs care so much about Samsung?

"Lin, since you also know that Samsung is a very scary opponent, then we have a consensus. Let's join forces to dominate the mobile phone market and drive Nokia and Samsung away!" Jobs waved his fist in the air.

Lin Feng had no objection to this proposal, but he was puzzled as to why Jobs wanted to cooperate with him. He never cooperated. At this moment, Lin Feng did not hide it and asked directly.

"Two reasons! One of the reasons I don't want to tell you, the second reason I can tell you." Jobs poured Lin Feng a cup of coffee, "Because of your appearance, the mobile phone market has changed too much. I don't want the two of us to fight to the death and let others take advantage of the situation. Samsung is a very potential and terrible company. I don't want to make wedding clothes for others in the end."

Lin Feng nodded. He agreed with this explanation. In memory, in that era, 'Apple' was the most popular brand in the world, but then Samsung came from behind. And now, if I fight Jobs hard, Samsung will have a greater chance. Therefore, there is a reason for me and Jobs to join forces to get rid of other troublemakers and avoid fighting between the clams.

"Then how to cooperate?" Lin Feng thought about it and asked.

"I think our new mobile phones will all be smart phones, so we will make smart phones bigger and stronger and eliminate traditional mobile phones as quickly as possible. You have 'Pangu', and I also have 's', which will first eliminate Nokia, Motorola and other manufacturers who are not aggressive in operating systems. We must make consumers accustomed to using smart phones and make smart phones their only choice. At that time, what other mobile phone manufacturers will have other choices? Independent research and development? Then we can beat them in the software system without leaving a single piece of armor." Jobs said proudly.

Lin Feng thought about it, and it was really the case. You know, in this 'future' Samsung can surpass 'Apple' and become the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer, relying on the 'Android system', and now 'Android' has been taken into Jobs's pocket, then the outside world has no 'Android', and it will be difficult for Samsung to surpass it again. And Jobs's request to eliminate traditional mobile phones as quickly as possible is to not give these manufacturers time to react. These mobile phone manufacturers who lack operating systems will probably be in trouble in a short time. At that time, if Lin Feng and Jobs work together, they can establish the absolute position of "Phantom Technology" and "Apple" in the mobile phone market.

How will the sales of mobile phones be in the future? It will become the fastest growing product in the world's electronic products, and it will also be the product with the fastest replacement. The annual sales will exceed 1 billion units. And the profit of mobile phones is also very high. Once Lin Feng and Jobs dominate this market, the profit will be very considerable.

Ellison made a rough estimate on the side. If the annual sales of mobile phones exceed 1 billion units in the future, Lin Feng and Jobs only need to occupy 70% of the market share, then the average annual profit will be around 60 billion US dollars. This is an extremely amazing figure. It is far more than the profit of any company under the names of the two now. And there are all kinds of peripherals for mobile phones that can be developed to make money. This is another amazing profit.

With a gurgle, Ellison couldn't help swallowing his saliva. This profit is too amazing. It makes him a little envious. Of course, Ellison believes that his database will also make money in the future.

"But there is another company that must be paid attention to." Lin Feng said in a deep voice.

"Microsoft!" This time, all three blurted out.

Yes, it was 'Microsoft'. Microsoft is another company in the industry that has an operating system. If the major mobile phone companies are trapped in the lack of a suitable smart operating system, then 'Microsoft' will definitely not sit idly by and will definitely attack. Although 'Microsoft's system may not be suitable for mobile devices, it is a threat.

"I think you need to contain 'Microsoft'." Jobs looked at Lin Feng.

"Containment is no problem, but what's the benefit for me? You know, dealing with 'Microsoft' will cost me a lot of energy. If you take advantage of the situation in the mobile phone market, I will suffer." Lin Feng knocked on the table.

Jobs rolled his eyes directly. You wander around all day long, what energy do you need to spend? You just need to formulate a good policy and let your men execute it. You are not like me who needs to develop a system and participate in various research and development. You are just an idle person.

"This is not for me, but for us, and even more for you. If you defeat 'Microsoft', you will gain the most!" Jobs snorted.

Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders.

"I won't do it if there's no benefit! Anyway, you have to give me some benefit!" Lin Feng said shamelessly.

Jobs was speechless. After all, you are an important person in this world, and it's too unkind to be a shameless person here. Be a kind person!

"How about this, you just need to say a word, and I will promise to do my best to contain Microsoft and let it try not to focus on the mobile phone market." Lin Feng rolled his eyes and smiled.

Jobs suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)m
