God-level Trader of Rebirth
Chapter 391 Difficult to Implement
In the mobile phone industry, sales volume does not explain everything.
Later generations of Apple mobile phones accounted for only 20% of the market share in shipments, but accounted for 85% of the profits of the global mobile phone industry in terms of profits.
Infinity was the first to enter the era of smartphones, and it only needs to maintain its technological leadership to gradually form an absolute monopoly in the world's mobile phone market.
The reason for not taking the high-end (high price) route is, on the one hand, to allow the rapid popularization of smartphones, and on the other hand, the low price can also invisibly discourage many companies from entering this market.
From the very beginning, Chen Weidong never planned to rely on the sales of mobile phones to make money.
Even in special cases, these phones can be given away for free.
Take the button machines in this period as an example. Although the hardware is still excellent, there are still too few profit growth points.
When a user buys a new mobile phone, it means that his short-term commercial value has been drained.
Because people will use this mobile phone for at least a year or two before considering a new one.
In terms of functions, the keypad is nothing more than making phone calls and sending text messages. These services do not make much money at all, and even if they do, they are taken away by the telecommunications company.
What really makes users willing to pay is always the software in the mobile phone and various incidental value-added services.
Examples include games, videos, music, subscriptions, and more.
Smartphones integrate the world's highest technological crystallization. Only through this carrier can various complex functions of application software be realized and brought to the extreme.
This is why after the emergence of smart phones, the traditional button machine will be eliminated by the market so quickly.
Infinity is in an absolute dominant position no matter in terms of PC, mobile phone or software.
As long as users use their computers and mobile phones, they will inevitably use the software developed by them.
This is the real monopoly.
Instead of doing everything possible to suppress and slander the peers.
This method is too low-level.
Chen Weidong is confident that in terms of software, they have already done their best. If it weren't for this, Infinity would not be able to catch up with Western technology so quickly.
But from the perspective of a reborn person, he also realized the upper limit of the software industry.
Although China's software industry will usher in an extremely prosperous period in the next decade or so, no breakthrough has been made after all.
The progress of scientific research in reality wants to accelerate again, so as to surpass the West and continue to lead, reaching a height beyond the reach of the other party. The potential of software has been exhausted.
There must be another way.
Not only that, Huaxia wants to develop the digital economy, upgrade its industry, and make a leap in productivity, so high-intensity computer computing power is a necessary condition for development.
This is the technology that really gets stuck.
In recent years, with the rise of Infinity Company, the family has grown and its business has grown, and its own technological level has also advanced by leaps and bounds.
Moreover, in terms of development path, Infinity and Western technology have diverged, and Chen Weidong is no longer interested in acquiring some advanced Western technology.
The birth of the photonic computer brought about earth-shaking changes in the research department of Infinity's headquarters.
On this day, Chen Weidong was in the office, chatting casually with Li Xier, when the phone behind him suddenly rang.
On the wall next to the phone, an LCD screen lit up, showing a portrait of a person.
This is the internal phone of Infinity Company. Only the internal phone of the company has the functions of optical fiber communication and videophone.
Since all the company's communications use optical fiber, as part of the company's benefits, every employee's family living in the company's campus has installed this videophone.
It is a flexible screen made of light-emitting organic matter, which can be directly attached to the wall or spread on the table, and transmit video signals through the camera.
The internal personnel of the company only need to enter their own ID codes, and then make a call, and their avatars will appear on the other party's screen for identification by the other party.
What Chen Weidong saw on the screen was Yu Guangbin, the person in charge of the photonic computer project team who was on vacation, but behind him, on the sofa in the living room, there were Liu Weitao and others sitting around a laptop, discussing something .
He sat up straight on the office chair with a smile, and said to the screen: "What are you doing? I remember that you are not on vacation? Why do you still get together for a meeting?"
"Mr. Chen, I'm looking for you just for this matter!" Yu Guangbin said with a wry smile: "Since the successful development of photonic chips, the enthusiasm of researchers in several major laboratories has never been higher. It is possible to realize that at this stage, letting them rest is harder than killing them!"
"Although you asked them to take mandatory vacations, they still meet in private and discuss issues together. How can it be possible to truly rest with peace of mind!"
"I also heard from the family members of some researchers that they haven't slept on time these days. Old Liao from the optoelectronic laboratory, researcher Liao, you know, he checked the information when he got home, and I heard that he hasn't slept for two days. Already!"
"You asked me to supervise them, and I can only go around everyone's house and force them to rest, but this is not a long-term solution, Mr. Chen, look, if this continues, not only will they not be able to recuperate, but it will worsen their health." The burden is harmful to the body!"
Chen Weidong looked behind him, and those researchers who were focused on discussing the subject were helpless.
The company's researchers don't like vacations very much.
Most of them are relatively boring and even a little withdrawn in their daily lives. Even if they socialize, they are limited to academic circles, and they are very pure scientific researchers.
Like Researcher Liao, there are not a few people who have been doing research day and night during the holidays. This has to attract Chen Weidong's attention. If these people are exhausted during the rest, that is the company's biggest problem. loss.
After being silent for a while, Chen Weidong said: "How about this, let's organize a tour group to visit famous mountains and rivers all over the country. You can inform me that everyone in the six major laboratories must participate, and it will be regarded as work. I will lead the team myself!"
"That's what I mean too!" Yu Guangbin heaved a sigh of relief and laughed, "But I'm afraid I won't be able to convince these old stubborn people, so you need to help with the persuasion work!"
The video calls between the two of them were both on hands-free. Liu Weitao and others in the living room heard it and immediately yelled: "Don't go, don't go! What kind of travel, just play the piano! Many projects are now in the dark, and they see the future. When the time comes, ghosts will travel!"
"I'm going to go with you, we won't go anyway!"
Li Xi'er also heard their conversation, covering her mouth and giggling beside her.
Chen Weidong's face was serious: "Playing the piano indiscriminately? I think you are playing the piano indiscriminately! The way of civil and martial arts is one piece and one relaxation. You don't understand this truth even at your age?"
"If you mess around like this, you don't love yourself and don't take responsibility for the company!"
"If you are exhausted, the company will not only bear your medical expenses, but more importantly, your research work will also be put on hold. In this case, will it speed up the research progress or delay the research? Do the math yourself!"
"In short, I don't care what your reasons are. At noon the day after tomorrow, I ask you to bring all your relatives with you and gather everyone! I don't believe it, I can't control you old men anymore!"
