20 years of restarting life

Looking at the progressive line of the world's mobile phone industry, Zhao Changan can clearly see a fault-like end and new life.

And this fault makes Motorola, Nokia, ERICSSON, Royal Philips, Siemens, Alcatel, Sagem, BlackBerry, palm, these European and American old mobile phone manufacturers, as well as Sony, Sharp, NEC, Panasonic, SEWON, WAVEGUIDE, Panda, Eastcom, China Science and Technology Construction , Prima, Capitel, Lenovo, tcl, Changhong, Haier—these emerging mobile phone manufacturers in East Asia have not been able to cross this fault line. Sold the entire mobile phone business.

Correspondingly, Windows phone, Symbian OS, blackberry os, Web OS, these operating systems developed for future smartphones, have not been lucky enough to cross the fault and have been forgotten in the dust of history.

The only one that has crossed this gap is Samsung in Seoul, and Apple, which is still making pads, iPod music players and personal computers at this time.

Before this fault time came, Apple keenly predicted that personal computers and pads had entered the limit height of development, and smart phones (pad + personal computer + mobile phone) were the emerging road of the industry, so they launched in 07 The iPhone smartphone, together with Samsung, has become the world's top two in the mobile phone industry 20 years later.

Of the two, Samsung uses Google's Android smartphone operating system, which won't appear until eight years later (08).

The iPhone uses the ios operating system inherited from the Applepad, and it officially appeared seven years later (07).

There are many reasons for the decline of these mobile phone companies, such as Nokia's own Symbian OS smartphone operating system, which is in love with the WAP function, and dismissive of the more advanced Android system and app functions.

Motorola was fooled by Apple into cooperating with an iTunes music phone. This phone loves to generate electricity from Apple's music website and can connect to Apple's music website.

As a result, Motorola here is still fantasizing about a strong alliance with the old pad manufacturer Apple. As a result, Apple launched its own iPhone over there.

ERICSSON in August 00, after T8 was revealed to have quality problems, its sales have been declining, so ERICSSON launched the mobile phone 'recovering profits' plan at the end of the year.

However, the eyes are not ordinary, and they have a "strong alliance" with Sony mobile phones. You must know that Xiaodongyang's mobile phone industry has never really flourished in the past 30 to [-] years. Once, there has never been any truly world-class explosive mobile phone.

Is the famous thousand-year-old soft.

The reason is the distorted market of Xiaodongyang's mobile phone industry.

NTT DoCoMo, KDDI, and SoftBank (SoftBank) have monopolized Toyo's mobile phone sales. What mobile phone to sell is not based on the performance of the mobile phone, but on the favor, face, and power of the mobile phone factory owner. Whether it is big or not, who is bigger.

With this grotesque way of selling mobile phones, if Xiao Dongyang can make the mobile phone industry sell well all over the world, that would be a fundamentally impossible thing.

As a result, it is not surprising that the brothers and sisters in trouble died together. ——

But behind these faults, these fallen stars, small sticks and small projectiles have really given up and ceased.

However, a small number of elites in the domestic mobile phone industry refused to admit defeat. Relying on the strong resilience of the Chinese nation, they successfully realized the grand scene of thousands of sails passing by the side of a sunken boat and ten thousand trees in front of a diseased tree.

Zhao Changan once read a statistic in his previous life, the global sales of smartphones in 22 years was 12.1 billion units.

Among them, Samsung smartphone shipments rank first in the world, with 2.6 million units.

The iPhone ranked second with 2.26 million units.

xiaomi is third with 1.53 million units.

Oppo is fourth with 1.07 million units.

Vivo is fifth with 9800 million units.

Transsion is sixth with 6800 million units.

Honor is seventh with 5900 million units.

realme ranked eighth with 5300 million units.

Motorola is ninth with 4700 million units.

Huawei ranked tenth with 2800 million units.

That is to say, apart from the top-ranked Samsung and the second-ranked iPhone, the remaining eight mobile phone companies are all Chinese companies.

This shows the fierceness of Chinese companies!
However, this timeline also shows that at this time, even if Motorola, Nokia, and ERICSSON, the world's top three mobile phone businesses, have strong R&D capabilities and many intellectual property rights in their hands, they cannot escape the fate of falling in the end.

In August 11, Google announced that it would acquire Motorola Mobile at a price of US$8 per share, for a total of US$40 billion.

Google's acquisition has obtained more than 2 mobile technology patents from Motorola Mobile, which are used to deter and suppress Samsung mobile phones.

On January 14, 1, facing the success of Google's launch of the Motorola mobile phone Droid Turbo equipped with the native Android smartphone operating system, and the upward pressure from the iPhone, Samsung had to give in and sign a new global patent agreement with Google.

Samsung has promised to downplay its customization of Android, focusing on core Android apps.

Only two days later, on January 1, Lenovo acquired Google's Motorola smartphone business for US$29 billion.

It includes 2000 patented technologies and the right to use the remaining mobile phone patented technologies authorized by Google, as well as the Motorola mobile brand and trademark portfolio.

So, all three parties are happy.

Google continues to sell software services to make a fortune, and Samsung honestly don’t look at the height of the mountain with half-heartedness, but return to the old business, make mobile phone hardware, hold high the banner of Android, and lead a large group of Android brothers to do it iPhone.

In 2000, Lenovo had a mobile phone dream. In September 00, it signed a confidentiality agreement and a letter of intent with Primoceco. However, seeing that the diamond mobile phone made by Dr. Wan was interesting, I went to tcl. But he was severely slapped in the face and flatly rejected by Mr. Li. Looking back in 9, he bought 02% of the shares of Xoceco's mobile phone business for 9000 million yuan, and the two parties formed a new company, Lenovo Xoceco Mobile Communications Company.

Four months later, in June of that year, the Lenovo brand mobile phone was officially launched, and then the logo was changed to a new logo, Lenovo.

A few years later, a new Android smartphone 'Le Phone' was released.

During the peak period, the sales volume of smartphones ranked second in the country, second only to Samsung, and the iPhone was cut to the crotch.

This is why Google is willing to sell Motorola Mobile, 2000 patented technologies and the right to use other mobile phone patented technologies authorized by Google to Lenovo at a price that is barely reasonable.

It is to regard the iPhone embedded with its own smart phone operating system ios as a thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh, and want the boss and the second child to cooperate to kill the third child.

And on the day when Zhao Changan saw that data, even though the third iPhone was not killed, he still held high the banner of ios smartphones operating this system and defeated a hundred with one.

However, Motorola, a subsidiary of Lenovo, has sold 4700 million smartphones worldwide. Although its ranking has dropped a lot, it is still a top-notch giant in the mobile phone industry.

This world is a big river and lake, and inside the big river and lake, like nesting dolls, there are countless small rivers and lakes nestled layer upon layer.

The world is like a chess game, and so is life.

The reason why Zhao Changan retreated a little at this time was because the time when the smartphone entered at this time did not seem to be the best time.

At this time, entering more is to make money, which is the right way.

The process is to sell mobile phones, go public, collect money, and cash out. If you go smoothly, cashing out billions of dollars is as easy and simple as playing.

However, this process has a fatal flaw, that is, it takes time.

The whole process will take at least several years.

And Zhao Changan is short of money now, and after September next year, he will basically not be short of the 80 billion small money.

On the contrary, because he has to continue to invest in the mobile phone industry now, he pumped the small funds in his hands into the mobile phone industry.

Just thinking about it gave him a headache.
