20 years of restarting life

Chapter 2172 Although it’s hard work, it’s worth it
"Tomorrow I will send a letter to the headquarters, proposing that it is very necessary for various mobile phone manufacturers to launch flip phones in the Asian market in advance. There is also a radical launch plan prepared by OT301 in China, which requires flip phones even more. It will be listed in advance to hedge the market. Later, Mr. Zhao and I will need to sign a plan for the launch of a new mobile phone. I believe the headquarters will seriously consider it."

No matter how subtle and euphemistic Qi Xidong's words were, it was an indisputable fact that Zhao Changan had changed again and again.

Especially the sentence "More need for flip phones to be released in advance to hedge the market" is to say that if Zhao Changan messes with the OT301 like this, he is not optimistic about it. Then once the OT301 fails, a new and better model will be needed to fill the hole of the OT301 immediately. , to avoid a greater crisis in the joint venture.

Fortunately, Zhao Changan has always been as thick-skinned as a city wall, so he doesn't feel any blush or embarrassment.

It doesn't matter what Qi Xidong thinks, because Zhao Changan simply cannot convince this stubborn man who despises his own youth, so he just needs to prove it with facts.

Qiao Hang, on the other hand, sat aside in embarrassment. He was 34 years old this year and was on the edge of the 35-year-old dividing line. As a middle-level technical person hired by the company from Motorol, he had previously participated in the entire Iridium project. In March last year After the Iridium project declared bankruptcy, he entered Motorol's mobile phone industry R&D center in disgrace and participated in the iDN i3 Plus (the world's first integrated digital phone/two-way radio/alphanumeric pager/Internet micro-browser/e-mail/ The development of a mobile phone that combines fax and two-way messaging functions.

Because of the Iridium project, Motorol's 57 billion yuan of funds were wasted in the sky, and its vitality was greatly damaged. Moreover, Qiao Hang was basically a marginal person in the development of iDN i1000 Plus, but whenever Motorol's When the left-behind office of the Iridium Project decided to scrap an unsold satellite that had no one to take over and "deorbited and burned itself" and fell into the atmosphere, it was always laughed at by colleagues in the project team who worked overtime and found it boring, "Qiao Hang, Go to the top of the building to see your big meteor worth 1 million yuan each. '

The 33-year-old Qiao Hang knew that if he continued to stay at Motorol, a failure like him would have no chance of advancement, so he looked for an opportunity to jump to Alcatel. Even though he was sent to Sydney and separated from his wife and children, he I am also willing to bet this time.

So this time the R&D center moved from Sydney to Mingzhu, he was even more happy in the mobile phone affairs department. Although he was still thousands of miles away from his family, and he was born in Malaysia, his hometown is in northern Zhejiang. His grandfather’s younger brother He is still alive and has many relatives there whose blood is thicker than water.

Moreover, during this relocation, he was the eldest and had the highest position, so it was natural for him to become the person in charge of the mobile phone affairs department.

In fact, in the past two months, he has been working hard with only one purpose, which is to achieve results as soon as possible and establish a foothold. Otherwise, when the contract expires next year, he will most likely be unable to find him. A terrible dilemma at work.

"Brother Qi, I think Mr. Zhao's plan is not without possibility of success. In terms of his grasp of the domestic market, Mr. Zhao should not be too bad. However, I fully welcome the advancement of the research and development process of flip phones."

Qi Xidong laughed after hearing this, and saw that there was no unhappy look on Zhao Changan's face, and said to Qiao Hang: "Brother, you technical people should talk as little as possible when discussing non-technical issues. Fortunately, Mr. Zhao You have a big belly, otherwise you won’t even know that you have offended others.”

"What did I say? What didn't I say? I was saying that Mr. Zhao's plan is good!"

Qiao Hang looked confused when he heard this.

"Director Qiao is confirming my plan, but Mr. Qi is leading me in the wrong direction."

When Zhao Changan looked at Qiao Hang, he looked a bit like himself in the previous life. He was in his late 40s and [-]s and still spoke without restraint, often misinterpreting good things to mean something unpleasant.

"Then let's do it. Mr. Qi, you might as well be more serious in tomorrow's letter, so that the design of the model here will not be too picky and delayed by the other side for manufacturing and testing of the prototype, and the model will be released as soon as possible. Set it down.”

After Zhao Changan agreed to cut off Alcatel's still-unexpected color screen research and development, it was tantamount to clearing the technical obstacles for flip phones.

Although Qi Xidong previously suggested using Siemens' four-color screen, this matter is not that easy. It requires the head office to discuss with Siemens. Even if Siemens agrees, it will use the romance of France and the rigor of Germany to finally provide micro-LCDs. The panel takes at least three or four months.And whether Alcatel headquarters disagrees or Siemens disagrees, this deal is a dirty deal.

In other words, things are too unpredictable and cannot be controlled.

Now it is agreed to use a monochrome screen, and Qiao Hang's R&D team has also completed the entire set of mobile phone parts (performance, specifications and sizes) that Alcatel can manufacture into flip phones. It can be said that the Alcatel R&D Center Once you get the design plan there, you only need to issue manufacturing instructions for prototype parts to various manufacturing departments, and it can be completed within ten days.

Then there is the test of the assembled prototype. The most critical thing here is whether the signal strength of the built-in antenna is sufficient.

-

All day long the next day, Zhao Changan was busy delivering gifts, but the gift delivery was only within Mingzhu City, and he couldn't get there if it was too far away.

Last night he was with Liu Cui. During the day today, he was also a responsible and responsible man for Song Jing, Zhao Xiaoxiao, Chen Li, Liu Xue, Xia He, and Xie Yimiao who thought they were good in the car. It completely satisfied their longings.

In the evening, before Zhao Changan hosted a banquet for Qi Xidong and Qiao Hang, he went to the R&D center to wait for Zhong Lianwei to pick up the CD that was flown in by air. When he saw Zhao Changan who was in a depressed state, Qi Xidong and Qiao Hang quietly looked at each other and couldn't help but be very moved. I feel that Zhao Changan must have had a busy day for the company today and he is very tired.

Qi Xidong, in particular, changed his previous impression of Zhao Changan as having "no hair on his lips and no jail time on his butt". He felt that he had underestimated the young man in front of him before. Sure enough, no one's success is random. It has a valid logic.

Qi Xidong and Qiao Hang were talking in a low voice on the sofa, while Zhao Changan was lying on another sofa and staring blankly. The central air-conditioning was on in the room, and the temperature was a matter of concern. The city was quiet. He soon fell asleep until he was shaken by Zhong Lianwei. Awake.

"Brother, how many shots did you hit today and you got dark circles under your eyes?"

Zhong Lianwei was surprised. Based on his understanding of Zhao Changan, he knew how much physical work it would take to tire him out like this.

"With great power comes great responsibility, don't you understand? Thing."

In fact, Zhao Changan had not slept well, and Zeng Xiaoxiao, Qiao Jing'er, and Xu Shasha rented a house together and said that they would invite him over to drink old hen stewed tortoise in the evening. It was hard work, but there were not many men in the world who wanted to do this. No matter how hard you work, you won’t have this opportunity.

Although it is hard work, it is worth it!

"Let's watch commercials together and go out for a bite to eat?"

Zhao Changan was actually trying to chase Zhong Lianwei away. If there were no outsiders, he would tell him to get out of here. But this is a formal occasion, not a place where their brothers can joke casually.
