Rebirth of the internet boss

Chapter 478 Must Advance
The reason why Li Feng asked Wang Xuehong to launch Android smartphones as soon as possible is to compete with Apple’s iOS iPhones.

In this way, not only can the name of the Android system be launched in one fell swoop, but also more people and companies can know about their Android system, so as to maximize the benefits!

I can let Apple preempt the launch of smartphones, but Li Feng will not allow other systems to take the lead in his Android system,
Even if there is still a certain gap between HTC's smartphone and Apple's iPhone in terms of comprehensive functions, Li Feng still hopes that HTC will release it as soon as possible. Even so, it can prove that his Android system is definitely better than iOS system!
So Li Feng emphasized again: "Mr. Wang, our first Android phone must be as fast as possible. It would be great if it can be released at the same time as Apple's first-generation iPhone!"

But this is Li Feng's point of view, the sooner the better; but from Wang Xuehong's point of view, quality must come first. As HTC's first mobile phone, Wang Xuehong hopes to be a hit. Of course, the sooner the better, but this Not a requirement.

So Wang Xuehong also retorted: "Mr. Li, making hardware is not like making software. It can be done overnight, and you have to work hard and slowly.

It takes at least 18 months for a mobile phone to go from design and development to final manufacturing. Even if the time is compressed and overtime is added, it would be good to launch it before June next year. "

The first mobile phone with the Android system in the previous life was released by HTC, code-named HTC Dream, referred to as HTC G1, and its release time was October 2008, 10.
If the first Android smartphone in this life has to wait until June 2008 to be released, what is the difference between this and the previous life? Should Feng Ruibai have to wait for a year? This is what Li Feng is very unwilling to see .

But now it is just that "time is everything", Li Feng also asked again bluntly: "Mr. Wang, can you give me a definite answer! If HTC invests regardless of cost, number of people, time, and all costs, the first How far ahead is a smartphone?"

Seeing that Li Feng paid so much attention to this issue, Wang Xuehong also thought for a while and said, "If you don't care about anything, if you go all out, you can get about 2 to 3 months in advance. If it is sooner, I can't guarantee it."

Although Li Feng is not clear about the process of the entire mobile phone from design to manufacturing to sale, Li Feng can roughly tell the launch time of the entire mobile phone from Wang Xuehong's communication. It should be possible to advance the time, but it is estimated that there is not much. Immediately to the limit of the HTC.

But even so, Li Feng is also a strong request: "Mr. Wang, the first Android smartphone must be launched by the end of this year at the latest..."

When Li Feng said this, Wang Xuehong became annoyed, especially the tone of Li Feng's speech that Wang Xuehong didn't like very much, it was a kind of "command" tone, what are you sharp, we are just allies, when will we macro Reached your sharp subordinates.

So before Li Feng finished speaking, Wang Xuehong interrupted directly, and she also said bluntly: "Mr. Li, you have never made a mobile phone, but I have done it, and I have been an OEM for others for several years. What is in it? I know all about the situation,
Among other things, this small mobile phone alone has hundreds of components, and the suppliers of these components for the designed mobile phone will not be able to be integrated in a short time.
What's more, in addition to design and manufacture, there are follow-up sales and after-sales, which cannot be done in a short while.
So if you think that our HTC is not good enough, it is not suitable, then you might as well cooperate with another mobile phone manufacturer! "

What's so great about Fengrui, since it wants to be the "Microsoft" of mobile operating systems, its own HTC can also be the "Intel" of the mobile phone field!
Isn't this Li Feng just a child, since he dares to trust him face to face, he is not a vegetarian, so he can also threaten Li Feng, "Eat for an eye, let's see who can't do without!"

My own Hongda doesn't necessarily have to hang on the tree of Fengrui, at worst, I will work with Microsoft in the future, Wang Xuehong also replied very stubbornly.

Seeing Wang Xuehong's attitude, Li Feng also knew that he had said something wrong. He was really used to being a leader. He almost forgot that Wang Xuehong in front of him was still an entrepreneur who was on equal footing with him, even an entrepreneur who was even better than him, let alone others Later, the father is even more awesome, Wang Yongqing, who is known as "Taiwan's business god".

In fact, that's not what Li Feng meant, but he was interrupted by Wang Xuehong before he finished speaking, so Li Feng hurriedly explained: "President Wang, you misunderstood me, I haven't finished yet.

First of all, we Fengrui and you Hongda must be equal partners, there is no one asking for others, only mutual cooperation!
Second, in terms of mobile phone hardware, you HTC must be the most professional, otherwise we would not ask you HTC for help, and we must absolutely trust your professional ability!
Finally, actually, I haven’t finished talking just now. What I mean is that we, Fengrui, have also joined in, fully cooperating with your HTC work, and striving to develop smart phones in the era. "

When Li Feng said that, Wang Xuehong felt much better, but how would Feng Rui, who had never made a mobile phone, cooperate? !

Wang Xuehong also continued to ask: "Then Mr. Li, how do you mean to cooperate?"

"Hardware is your strong point, especially your Hongda has many years of contract manufacturing experience, and you also master the entire supply chain of mobile phone manufacturing. We Fengrui don't understand it and don't get involved. It depends on you.
However, in terms of software, Fengrui still has a lot to do, and you have also seen the Android system, which is not bad at all compared with Apple's iOS. Certain financial support! "

"Financial support?! What kind of financial support method?" Wang Xuehong's eyes lit up when she heard the financial support.

"If HTC can launch the first Android smartphone before the end of this year, then we, Fengrui, will support HTC worth 1000 million U.S. dollars without compensation!" Li Feng said.

Hearing what Li Feng said, Wang Xuehong was also a little tempted. 1000 million US dollars is already a lot of money. Converted into Taiwan dollars, it is more than 3 million NT dollars!

It’s just that Wang Xuehong hasn’t made a statement yet, and Li Feng continued to say: “And on this basis, every few months in advance of HTC, we Fengrui will give a few more US$500 million,
For example, if it is released in November, it is 11 month ahead of schedule, then on the basis of the previous 1 million US dollars, an additional reward of 1000 million US dollars will be awarded; if it is released in October, it is equivalent to 500 months in advance, and then Reward 10 more 2 million US dollars, so that you can get 2 million US dollars!
By analogy, in short, the earlier the release, the better the rewards!How about Mr. Wang, do you want to take a gamble, as long as Mr. Wang agrees, we can sign the relevant agreement now, and I can pay 500 million US dollars in advance now! "

At this time, Li Feng has no other choice except money. Who wants to have no other mobile phone manufacturers besides HTC, otherwise Li Feng would insist on asking Wang Xuehong!

Now I can only spend money to buy time, and use money to open the way. As long as the first Android smartphone is successful, then all this will be worth it!
PS: It will be updated normally tomorrow. There have been a lot of farts recently. It seems that I have a lot of farts. There is no way. In the final analysis, I am slow in coding. People can code one or two thousand in an hour, but I only scold so much in two hours. But I'm still making progress!Please continue to support me and subscribe more!
