Chapter 541: Block You in Advance!
When Qin lost its deer, the whole world chased it!
The birth of a new business model...
There is always a lack of bloodthirsty people.
The birth of a new era...
It often makes the arrogant overlords of the old era feel overwhelmed. If they are not careful, they will lose everything!
The [Thousand Group War] was in full swing, and everyone thought that capital had entered a period of fatigue.
However, the birth of [WeChat] suddenly made the flames burn again!
On the morning of May 2!
Lei Lei, the boss of [Taomi Technology] who had just received 400 million investment, stood up first.
Standing at the door of [Taomi Technology], facing each R&D team, he spoke his inner thoughts in his not-so-standard Mandarin.
"Ten days!"
"I'll only give you ten days!"
"In ten days, I want to see Mi Chat come out!"
"In these ten days, you will give me money, people and technology!"
"Fight to the end with [Mi Chat]!"
"[WeChat] is our template. We don't need to research it ourselves. We just need to disassemble the framework of [WeChat] and then lay it out bit by bit..."
"Don't think this is plagiarism. We must race against time. You don't have to have any psychological burden at all!"
"As long as it is developed and tested, we will embed it. We will follow up with the next ground promotion!"
"..."
"..."
After Lei Lei finished these words in an excited and excited tone, he left [Taomi Technology].
He contacted the mobile operator as soon as possible.
But...
The other party was on the phone.
…………………………
May 2.
Chen Shouguo looked at Zhang Sheng with complicated eyes.
Last year.
Once, [Game Treasure Box], which was crazy in the 2G era and made a lot of money for the mobile network, was officially withdrawn from the mobile strategic project.
As a veteran of the mobile enterprise, Chen Shouguo felt a sigh.
Witnessing the rise of an era and the fall of an era, this complex emotion is really hard to describe
At the same time, last year...
A young man named Zhang Sheng knocked on the mobile project team, Chen Shouguo's office, and they talked about [Bird's Nest Mobile Mall].
At that time, Chen Shouguo was not optimistic about [Bird's Nest Mobile Mall]. It was only because Zhang Sheng was a junior of [Yaohua Technology] Lin Guodong and was introduced by the other party that they met briefly.
They signed a traffic betting agreement.
In fact, the betting agreement was insignificant to Chen Shouguo, and it was a step for both parties.
Then...
Chen Shouguo was shocked to see the 50 million downloads of [Temple Run].
Then, he also saw that this data went from 50 million downloads to 100 million!
At the same time, various domestic mobile phones that cooperated with Zhang Sheng rose rapidly in just a few months...
In the past 5 months...
One by one, the almost crazy data made Chen Shouguo realize that the great changes in domestic mobile phones seemed to have begun.
He had been looking for an opportunity to talk to Zhang Sheng about contract phones.
Currently, the three major operators, China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, have almost become a mess in order to grab the last market in the 3G era.
Although China's GDP this year has surpassed Xiao Rizi and officially become the world's second largest economy.
But the gap between the rich and the poor is getting more and more serious...
More than 95% of Chinese people are ordinary people who have no house or car, and no extra spare money, running around for three meals a day...
The three major operators have reached a consensus that they must develop the high-end market and expand the low-end market.
The "contract phone" brands in the low-end market are naturally targeted by the three major operators and are in fierce competition.
But!
With the development of the times, smart phones are becoming more and more advanced!
[VIK], [Zhongsheng] and other old-fashioned contract phones of thousands of yuan are garbage...
At the beginning, users were still enthusiastic about recharging their phone bills and giving away mobile phones, greedy for a little bargain, but after using it for two months and downloading a series of task software, the contract phone was so stuck that it was exaggerated that it couldn't even make a call. It was like a shocking scam!
Over time, some users have developed a certain resistance to contract phones!
But...
If you want a good-performance mobile phone, the cheapest domestic mobile phone is 1999. This investment is too large. Even the three major operators cannot keep losing money to attract users.
As for those knockoff phones that sold for 699 last year, the core is the components of the thousand-yuan phone. It seems that the sales are very good, but in fact, they are just taking advantage of the appearance and gimmicks of the iPhone 4 to cut a wave of leeks.
Moreover, most of these have no after-sales service, and a lot of problems make people headache!
In view of this, Chen Shouguo really wants to talk to Zhang Sheng to see if Zhang Sheng's [Apple 4S] can be made a little cheaper, and then the two sides can reach a cooperation.
Speak of the devil!
Zhang Sheng happened to knock on the door of his office at this time.
"Haha, brother Zhang, sit down, sit down, I'll make you tea..."
"Uncle, no need, I just happened to pass by here today, so I came to sit down and chat casually..."
"Ha, just chat casually, I just happen to have something to chat with you casually..."
"Eh?"
"Sit, sit... Xiao Zhang, you are really a young hero, amazing, amazing..." After he warmly greeted Zhang Sheng to sit down, Chen Shouguo gave Zhang Sheng a burst of rainbow farts.
"Uncle, cough, cough... If you have anything to say, just say it. If you can use me, just ask..." Zhang Sheng felt nauseated for some reason while watching Chen Shouguo make tea.
After reluctantly taking a sip, he looked at Chen Shouguo sincerely.
"That's right. This year, we have a batch of contract machines that we want to replace. As you know, our previous contract machines have always been with [Zhongsheng] and [VIK]. Of course, we still maintain a good Cooperation, in view of the relationship between Mr. Lin and you, and in view of our previous good cooperation, I talked with the leader some time ago, and I am planning to invite your [Apple 4S] to join our contract..." Chen Shouguo watched Zhang Sheng finish his drink. After tea, he quickly poured another cup with Zhang Sheng, unable to hide the smile on his face: "Accordingly, we will also subsidize you a little. As for the price, we can talk slowly. After all, the wealth does not go to outsiders. Well!"
Zhang Sheng gently picked up the tea cup and drank.
His face was calm, but his heart sank slightly.
He clearly realized that Chen Shouguo wanted to get something out of him.
"Brother Zhang, what do you think?"
Seeing Zhang Sheng's silent expression, Chen Shouguo asked again.
"We sell it for 1,999 yuan. In fact, the profit from a mobile phone to our manufacturer is only about 99 yuan... If it is a contract phone worth 1,000 yuan, how much subsidy can you give us?"
"In addition to the cost of 1,000 yuan, we can subsidize 200 yuan... On the one hand, it will allow your [Apple 4S] to enter the market faster and kill everyone. On the other hand, I know you sell mobile phones just to To build the APP channel behind you, I can ask my employees, at least Yanjing’s employees, to help users download the APP and better expand your channels... We can even help you promote it, saving you a lot of publicity. The cost is not worth the hard work..."
"Uncle, if I sell a mobile phone, I will still lose 700..." Zhang Sheng frowned deeply.
"It can't be a loss. Don't worry, I will help you earn back the money you lose here. I will tell you everything. Our mobile phone is currently developing a full range of data functions, called NFC. The core It uses mobile phone information to communicate with sensor device information. In the future, mobile phone payments, even bus cards, access cards, car keys, mobile payments and device data transmission... will all use this function. If this time, we reach a cooperation agreement , then I will apply to the leader to implant the NFC function into your [iPhone 4] mobile phone, which will make you further ahead in the future market!”
"..."
"When your core value increases and you truly become the number one mobile phone brand in China, it's not you who has the final say on the price of your mobile phone... Take a longer-term view. In the future, there will be tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even billions." market value, you have priority!”
"..."
Chen Shouguo and Zhang Sheng improved the NFC function.
Inevitably, the conversation came up about the payment function. When the conversation came about the payment function, Chen Shouguo chatted with Zhang Sheng with excitement.
But Zhang Sheng became calmer and calmer.
In the future, NFC will indeed have functions such as bus cards, access cards, and car keys.
But the aspect of mobile payment that Chen Shouguo boasts the most about is precisely the aspect that has been least implemented.
Moreover, the NFC function is not something developed by China Mobile, but comes from foreign technology. We just use it to upgrade and explore the market...
Whatever Zhang Sheng wants to do in the future, as long as the core team studies it, they can do it.
"Uncle... I can lose money for 700 yuan per unit, but I have a condition..."
Zhang Sheng was silent for a long time and finally looked at Chen Shouguo.
"What conditions, you said..."
"I hope you can come forward. In addition to the mobile phone manufacturers we cooperate with, I hope you will negotiate with other mobile phone manufacturers to let them block the pre-installed [WeChat], um, only block the new social software under [Tengji Technology]. I will sign the agreement... If possible, I hope you will come forward and talk to [iPhone 4S], [Samsung], [LG] and other mobile phone manufacturers..." Zhang Sheng stared at Chen Shouguo expressionlessly.
"You... our relationship with our cooperative mobile phone manufacturers has always been independent and collaborative... This kind of commercial competition relationship, we always let them solve it on their own. This cannot be done..."
"I'll subsidize some more money!"
"no!"
"Then I'll go find China Unicom and China Telecom..." Zhang Sheng was silent for a moment, finished the tea, then stood up and turned to leave.
"Hey, eh, Brother Zhang, don't leave. Let's talk slowly, Brother Zhang? Young people, don't be so impatient!"
"..."
After Chen Shouguo watched Zhang Sheng leave, his cell phone rang again.
That was the call from Lei Lei from [Taomi Mobile].
He answered the phone immediately.
Then!
The other party wanted to talk to him about the contract machine...
But, it seems...
Also block social software owned by [Tengji Technology].
……………………
May 2nd!
In Zheng Huateng's office.
"In three days, I want to see [WeChat] come out! I can do it!"
"Three days?"
"Yes, three days!"
"I……"
"Can you do it?"
"this……"
"If you can't do it, get out!"
"..."
After scolding Zhang Xiaoqiang, Zheng Huateng got the news about Zhang Sheng from his assistant.
today……
Zhang Sheng went to the mobile headquarters, China Unicom headquarters, and telecommunications headquarters in Yanjing...
A more uneasy feeling came to my heart!
(Sorry, the monthly vote list is already 41, so I need to add another chapter to make it up again)
(But... I'm really not in a good state. I have some self-doubts. I want to go to the Internet cafe to play games online. I'm going to take it easy today... Two updates guaranteed...)
