Chapter 797 You know, I'm not a troublemaker (1)

Night, Beijing Hotel.

Not long after Zhu Zhaojiang got off the plane, he was packing his things in the room, when he heard a knock on the door, he went to open the door, and Bai Yongxiang was standing outside with a smile.

"Boss White!"

"I'll be on the same boat from now on, just call me Laobai, I'm three years older, so I don't need to be so polite."

Bai Yongxiang entered the room, took a look, and asked casually, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"I didn't eat much. I have been in Africa for a long time, and I have to adapt every time I come back."

"Yeah, I have lingering fears about Fufu and Egus Soup... Oh yes, Mr. Yao will come over later."

"Boss Yao is coming too?"

"Of course it has come. The group attaches great importance to this in-depth cooperation."

In February, Lao Bai went to Africa alone, and opened the door of Zhu Zhaojiang's heart. Zhu Zhaojiang has been working in Nigeria and Kenya, but he did not give permission.

But when he came back, he acted extremely decisively, and negotiated the conditions after three times and five divisions.Bai Yongxiang appreciates him very much, he does not hesitate when he thinks about it, and he does it as soon as he says it. This is a person who does great things.

The two sat for a while, when someone knocked on the door again.

Bai Yongxiang went to drive, sure enough, Yao Yuan came after him.

"Boss Yao!"

Zhu Zhaojiang hurried forward a few steps, only to feel that the other party flashed over, and he grabbed his hand: "I have known your name for a long time, and I have wanted to visit you for a long time. I really don't have time. I saw you for the first time today. I am ashamed!"

Damn!

Regardless of whether it is true or false, this attitude is very useful, and Zhu Zhaojiang also said a few words of sincerity.

The three of them sat down, and Yao Yuan asked directly, "How much is Transsion expected to ship this year?"

"1500+"

"1500?"

Yao Yuan and Bai Yongxiang looked at each other and sighed: "Africa is indeed a dreamy blue ocean. Our Meizu 3+Meizu 1 will ship a maximum of 1500 million units this year."

"You are being modest. Meizu's business is quality, and it has just opened up overseas markets. It is inevitable to be conservative in data. Unlike Transsion, which is still selling feature phones."

"Are you going to keep making functional phones?"

"There are too many differences between regions in Africa, and there is still a broad market for functional phones. Maybe in 10 or 20 years, they will gradually phase out functional phones."

"..."

Yao Yuan nodded, carried out the purpose of tonight's visit, and made a promise: "After we sign the agreement, Meizu will not participate in the management and voting of Transsion, and the two parties will mainly conduct in-depth integration in channels, promotion, and ecological chain.

As Lao Bai said to you, we sell mobile phones first, then sell content, and then sell smart electronic products to build an African product ecosystem. "

"With your words, I feel relieved!"

Zhu Zhaojiang was very supportive and curious, and asked, "What is your original intention for your idea of ​​going out to sea?"

"In fact, there was no original intention, and it was slowly formed with the development of the business. For example, in the first few years, we found Facebook with the food stealing game, and then sold it all over the world. When Apple rose, we put "Angry Birds" "Sold to users all over the world... just a little bit like this, it has the direction it is today."

Yao Yuan smiled and said: "The group now has three large overseas business divisions. One is centered on games and Hugelive, radiating Europe, America, East Asia, and Southeast Asia. One is for the Middle East market, and the other is for Africa.

Some do hardware first, some do content first, but in the end they all combine hardware and software to create a localized ecosystem.This thing will not be clear for a while. You are a person who does big things, and you must know it well. We have reached an agreement now and work together. "

"It's also thanks to Mr. Yao's attention!"

Zhu Zhaojiang's success in Africa is naturally not easy to provoke, but both Bai Yongxiang and Yao Yuan have given him enough respect, coupled with the drive of practical interests, he is happy to accept this investment.

"Honestly speaking, Transsion has a small capital and low profits, and is in need of funds. Your money can be regarded as a solution to my urgent need."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"I have personally investigated in Africa and have been doing localization development, pondering the local language, local aesthetics, including the sweaty hands of African people, I have taken them all into consideration.

One of the key projects is that the camera and video functions of mobile phones in the African market are not very friendly to black people. When they come out, they are all black, with only eyes and teeth left.

We are collecting a large number of photos of local people, analyzing and debugging according to their characteristics, and want to develop photo and video modes suitable for dark skin..."

Zhu Zhaojiang pushed the cup of coffee in his hand and said, "Simply put, the result is a beautiful brown color or a sexy chocolate color, Africans will definitely like it!

But R&D needs money, alas..."

Needless to say!

Yao Yuan's eyes were already sparkling. He really is a talent. He immediately said, "You don't have to worry about the capital and listing in the future. If you don't completely win the African market, you will be sorry for our cooperation!"

…………

Yao Yuan ran over in person, just to say a few words, and quickly left.

In the blink of an eye, the next day, a press conference was held at the International Convention and Exhibition Center. At the meeting, it was officially announced: "Meizu invested US$1 million in Transsion, accounting for 17.45% of the shares!"

"With the Meilan brand as the core, we will share the channel Balabala..."

Yao Yuan, Bai Yongxiang, and Zhu Zhaojiang were all present, he was there to support the stage, he didn't overwhelm the audience, the main reason was that the two of them flattered each other.

Finally, he concluded a few words:
"As of May, the sales volume of Meizu 5 has exceeded 3 million units, and the sales volume of Meizu has reached 500 million units. Going overseas has always been the strategy of 400 Group. We chose the African market as the first landing point for mobile phone business , Transsion has mature operating experience in Africa..."

"And in the second half of this year, Meizu's first flagship phone will meet with you... With the rapid upgrade of hardware, our mobile phones will be better integrated with content and develop more products."

As soon as the voice fell, a reporter asked below: "Are you referring to map navigation?"

Ok?
Yao Yuan was taken aback for a moment, but didn't answer yet.

The reporter asked again: "There are rumors that 99 Group is planning to enter the navigation market. Is it true?"

"I don't know where you heard the news, I can only say that I have no comment!"

"Is that true? What kind of strategy will 99 adopt, charging or free?"

"Sorry, this has nothing to do with today's press conference."

"When you launch navigation, it is bound to directly compete with Baidu. May I ask how you will... zizi!"

The reporter was shut down.

The news was flying around the Internet that day.

"99 suspected of developing mobile navigation products, the market may be reshuffled!"

"Yao Yuan's attitude is ambiguous!"

"Informed sources revealed that 99 is indeed preparing for related work!"

"Expert analysis: navigation is a powerful supplement to the 99 ecosystem!"

"Mobile navigation may enter the era of free, repeating the scene of anti-virus software shopping!"
