20 years of restarting life

Self-programmed ringtones, built-in antenna, dual-band mobile phone, built-in games, flip phone (99, Motorol328c), slider phone (99, Siemens, SL1088), three-proof phone (waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, 99, Ericsson R250 ), smart phones (99, Motorol, A6188), including SAMSUNG dual-screen, MP3, Sharp camera, color screen, and WAP, tri-band, mobile storage, smart phone operating system, radio, TV, flashlight, compass, Universal remote control, diamond mobile phone,——

These are all additional means of mobile phone functions that various mobile phone princes during the Warring States Period wanted to try after the basic functions of mobile phones were defined as 'calls + text messages'.

For example, the top leaders, Motorol, Ericsson, and Nokia, are powerful and can conduct trial and error in all fields.

Sharp, the previous optical and LCD panel giant, can conduct in-depth research and development in the professional field of photography and color screens.

SAMSUNG, which has crossed over, is currently the leader in this area thanks to their MP3 technology.

BlackBerry, a long-established PAD manufacturer, has entered the mobile phone market with their wireless interconnection features.

In other words, these emerging small manufacturers can only engage in local in-depth research and development in a professional direction, striving to achieve highlights in a certain additional field of mobile phones and increase market share.

As for Alcatel, Siemens, Royal Philips, and SAGEM, these mobile phone manufacturers, which are weaker than the top three but are among the top ten in the world, are in an awkward position.

They do not have the capital and confidence to trial and error across the board like Nokia, nor do they have the advantages in the original industry field brought by Sharp, SAMSUNG, and BlackBerry across borders. They continue to focus on the original field attributes in mobile phone ancillary functions.

Therefore, in order to cope with this kind of pressure from above, the younger brothers below are unwilling to jump up one after another. In the cramped and limited space, they can only passively follow the trend of mobile phone development attributes by planning and then acting.

For example, Alcatel launched its first mobile phone OT Easy HF in 98. It had no highlights but was cheap, so it sold well in Europe.

It wasn't until the next year that they launched their second mobile phone, the OT221. This model was exported to China and was fully Chinese dual-band.

However, what disappointed them was that because they did not understand the Chinese market and believed that China was short of electricity, they actually designed a genius to use three AA batteries to provide power.

What makes them even more confused is that, let alone selling this model in China, Chinese distributors simply refuse to introduce it because they are not fools and they don't have enough money to pay off.

However, this model sells very well in Europe. Many young people are impatient to wait for the long charging time and replace the battery when their phone runs out of power.

It was a slap in the face to the mobile phone affairs department of Alcatel R&D Center.

This year, Alcatel finally stepped up its game and launched the OT301 series, couple phones OT500 and OT700.

It is these three mobile phones, although they have no other functions except the basic function of "call + text message". However, because they are cheap, Alcatel finally feels proud. In the world of mobile phone manufacturers, it ranks seventh in the world and fourth in Europe. .

It was also from this point on that Alcatel finally decided to take a few more steps and spend tens of millions of euros on the research and development of built-in "call + text message" after three years of development. Antenna, color screen, WAP Internet access, mobile phone recording, and new power-on and off animation.

It's just that a discerning person will see that this is all the research and development of basic additional attributes that have been determined to become essential functions of future mobile phones, and there is nothing new at all.

As for the MP3 and camera functions proposed by Zhao Changan, Alcott actually did not even discuss them, because firstly, they do not have this technology, and secondly, in their view, the top three big players in the mobile phone field have not yet discussed it. There is no MP3 and photo project team established, which means that these two gadgets are likely to have little market prospect.In this regard, Zhao Changan can understand why in his previous life, a few years later Alcatel packaged and sold its mobile phone business to t~l, because in fact, apart from a broken brand, it had nothing real. Something valuable.

Unlike Imagination, which acquired Motorol from Google and obtained a large number of patents in the mobile phone field.

As a result, the company that bought Alcatel's mobile phone business later became a world-famous mobile phone OEM. And the Motorol mobile phone brand that Imagination bought, although it still has half a life left, can still barely carry this banner and continue to carry on. dance.

Before Zhao Changan's trip to Europe, he was full of yearning and confidence in trying to acquire Alcatel's mobile phone business in the future. However, after visiting the Alcatel mobile phone factory and R&D center in France, he felt completely cold.

This is why after learning that BlackBerry and Tianyue had a falling out and withdrawing their shares in the future, he couldn't wait to go to Waterloo City, where he took the initiative to talk to BlackBerry about cooperation, and then felt that he could do better. , chose a more radical goal ambition.

The reason is that BlackBerry is a first-class company that truly focuses on technology to change mobile phones, while Alcatel is more like a 'Huaqiangbei' looking for quick money in the mobile phone business.

Originally, in the afternoon, Zhao Changan had agreed with Zhang Lingling to transfer 7.7% of his Yanjiao shares to her.

However, since Qi Xidong has completed the design of the prototype model at the mobile phone affairs department of Mingzhu R&D Center, he must take advantage of this time to go over with Qi Xidong to see the actual situation.

So Zhao Changan contacted Zhang Lingling and said that they would do it another day. Zhang Lingling's tone on the other side of the phone was indifferent, as if she had misunderstood Zhao Changan. She just said that she and Lu Feifei had already booked a flight ticket for the day after tomorrow, and she hoped that Zhao Changan would not Repeated delays.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Changan was speechless. These women were really anxious and wanted to kick him out of Yanjiao immediately.

Lu Feifei, Zhao Changan's childhood pen pal, Zhang Lingling, who previously loved Wen Ye to the point of obsession, and Yu Duo, who just a few days ago kept saying that she wanted to be her good son-in-law.

These women really fall out of love as quickly as they turn the pages of a book!
At noon, Zhao Changan and Qi Xidong both drank, and they drove into the city in the car driven by Qi Xidong's driver.

Wen Ye's current task is to conduct comprehensive command and operation of the OT301 series of mobile phones that are about to begin mass production and then be put on the market. He has no time to focus on flip phones.

And Tang Shuang felt that Zhao Changan and Qi Xidong were really the same thing. Seeing the two of them working side by side, she almost drank chicken blood and worshiped him. The more she watched, the more bored she became. How could she still want to visit the Alcatel Pearl R&D Center with them? Cell Phone Affairs Department.

Besides, she is now responsible for the overall situation of the entire One Nano system, and she has no time to waste like this.

"Isn't it a bit hasty to launch OT1 into the market on January 301st? I am not against launching mobile phones into the market as soon as possible, but so far, our sales channels and marketing advertising have not started."

Although Qi Xidong does not have high hopes for the sales of OT301 series mobile phones in China, after all, there are so many domestic mobile phone brands now.

However, he still hopes that through this sale, he can practice in advance for the future sales of flip phones, the main model, and build a good sales channel. It is best to create a brand impression for the company on the public.
