Age of Dreams

What is the main motivation to promote mobile terminal shopping?

In general, there are two.

The first is that the most direct is to have cheap and popular internet conditions.

If you use mobile phone data, you will get one hundred or two hundred yuan a day, which even Chinese netizens can't afford, let alone Indians.

Therefore, the legendary Gusu city free coverage of such things can best promote the rapid development of mobile shopping.

The second is a cheap and safe smartphone.

Basically, for the more than 300 million high-income people and families in India, there is a market for mid-to-high-end smartphones.

But for the low-end income group in India, a mobile phone of around US$120, or even a lower US$80, is the most wonderful.

If you want to sell 300 million mobile phones in India a year, then you can sell it for about $60, and you can sell it for ten consecutive years!

Of course, the profit margin is going to be low, and only low-end manufacturers, such as small factories in Nanwan and Winter Hall, can make such extreme prices.

And now it’s not possible. Even in 2013, I can’t do it. If you want to achieve a retail price of $60 a smart phone, I’m afraid I can see if it can barely be achieved in 2015.

Because the price of various electronic components must be constantly updated to be cheaper.

According to the current price of mobile phone electronic components, it is impossible for a smart phone of 1,000 yuan to do it, let alone a smart phone of about 400 yuan.

In fact, the best-selling mobile phones in the Indian market are still feature phones from Motorola and Nokia, and the prices happen to be between 300-400.

Having said that, smart phones are not just cheap, they must be safe.

If it's just cheap. But after using it twice, the bank card I bound was stolen, and the balance of the mobile phone such as the free wallet was also transferred away, and the loss was not just the price of a mobile phone.

Therefore, a safe and cheap smartphone is the best phone.

As long as the above two conditions exist. Basically, a country with a large population will completely transform into a country with mobile shopping, catching up with Western countries with a small population.

However, after the sales volume of the product reaches a certain scale, the profit margin of a single product is actually not the most important, and a sufficient number is enough to make up for the profit.

For this goal, Xiao Qi decided that after the Fairy Company gained a firm foothold in India, it would buy itself from Nortel Networks, which has sublimated the 3g network architecture and wireless technology. Brought to India, with meager profits, or even unprofitable prices, to lay out the signals of major cities in India.

Of course, before that, Xiao Qi had to do a good job in China's 3g network first, and then talk about the signal laying completely.

There is no reason why it is good to ignore the people in your own country, but to make foreigners cheaper first, right?

Before Xiao Qi was reincarnated and reborn. The debate about 3g network and 4g network has always existed.

In fact, Xiao Qi thinks. According to the current network development trend and the application of smart terminals such as mobile phones and tablet computers, it is not necessary to use 4g networks at least before 2016.

As for the ultra-high-speed and ultra-convenient functions that 4g networks have...For example, how boring and lonely you have to be before you want to use your mobile phone to download a movie that is just a few g in high speed? People with normal thinking. Under normal circumstances, you either use your mobile phone to watch online movies, such as Baidu, Xunlei, Youku, etc., or download them on your computer. Can you watch them on your mobile phone?

Ordinary people use their mobile phones to surf the Internet, at most they are watching videos, which are basically Weibo, WeChat, news, and online shopping. In this case, why is 3g not enough? That's enough!

Therefore, Xiao Qi decided to promote the 3g network. Starting in 2007, it will last at least 10 years. Small and medium-sized cities that are slightly more remote may not lag behind after 15 years.

Don't think Xiao Qi is currently doing 4g pilot projects in Dongfang and Rongcheng, but this is just an experiment and preparation. The key is to see the needs of users.

At that time, if there is a need in big cities, it will be good to build a 4g network. Anyway, many people have money and want a faster network, then earn a little more, and even with the fairy company, they can accumulate more technology.

It is now the second half of 2009, but in the whole of China, there are still many places where the 3g network is not spread. The signal in the fourth-tier small cities is still not good, and the first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen have not implemented outdoor wireless Basic network coverage.

If you want to say that China is too backward in the free network, and it is not as atmospheric as abroad, then it is completely wrong.

At least in the United States in 2013, it never said that there are free networks covering all major cities-if they are all free, what do their network service providers eat?

For example, in many tourist cities in Japan, if you open the Internet search, you can see the Internet signals of the cities covered, but how bad those signals are, even a WeChat account takes a long time, and it may not be usable, and it will let you I don't want to use it at all.

Otherwise, you think those tourists are stupid. With the coverage of tourist cities, they still need to buy roaming data cards and use them for mobile use?

How many businesses, such as shopping malls, amusement parks, restaurants, hotels, etc., are willing to provide free of charge, that is their own business, they also get it through paying, and they hope to attract more consumers, and they have never missed it. Free for no reason.

So the crux of the problem is not about free internet, but about internet traffic tariffs.

After the popularization of 3g networks in foreign countries, many network service providers have proposed a monthly subscription policy for mobile phone traffic, so that people can use their mobile phones to access the Internet anytime and anywhere without worrying about the cost.

However, this kind of mobile phone traffic in foreign countries is definitely not free for high-speed, but every day you use a certain amount of traffic, such as 1g, 2g, and the future network speed will drop to 100m, 50m. The more you use it, the slower the speed. .

Otherwise, you can directly use your mobile phone as a hotspot and provide it to many people for free use. Wouldn't their operators also have no money to make?

Don't doubt, this kind of thing is not only Chinese people can do, foreigners are the same, as long as the law doesn't say they can't do it, they can and are willing to take advantage of this kind of advantage.

Therefore, some people criticized the Chinese people for "using 200 yuan for a monthly subscription, and then returning to the dormitory mobile phone for hot sharing, charging each person 50 yuan, 7 people giving him 350 yuan, and he can still earn 150 yuan per month" such behavioral quality is too low. It is also not accurate. It is necessary to say that this general situation is the root of the Chinese people's inferiority, it is only because the braids in the hearts of such people have been kept.

Therefore, Xiao Qi still feels that the monthly subscription price of mobile phone traffic can be greatly reduced, but he can also learn from foreign countries, imposing a rate limit policy on daily traffic, and the speed will be slow if it is used too much, and it cannot be shared or shared by others. For commercial use, it can only be used for personal use.

For now, China's mobile phone bills and data charges are still too expensive.

Fortunately, mobile phone bills, after having WeChat, people rarely even make calls.

As for the two-way charging of mobile phones in Dongfang City, that is also an isolated case, and it is impossible to appear in the whole country.

Basically, the focus is still on the traffic fee.

The current prevailing price, regardless of China Telecom, China Guolianshu or China Guodian, the average price of a traffic package is about 1 yuan, if it exceeds the traffic package, it is 3 yuan 1m, which is very expensive.

Generally speaking, if an ordinary person only uses the data of his mobile phone to surf the Internet, even if he does not watch the video, he only uses Weibo, Weixin, Taobao, and Xiaoyao malls, it is about 20g a month.

no way.

Most of these social networking tools and these shopping sites are mainly pictures, and pictures are the most expensive traffic. Just look at Weibo for an hour and 100m of traffic will be spent.

With 20g of data, even if you order the most expensive data package, it is not enough, and it will not be less than 3,000 yuan a month.

What a scary expense, even ordinary gold-collar workers are reluctant to bear it, let alone white-collar workers and newcomers who account for the vast majority of Internet users.

Of course, no one is so stupid in real life, and they all use their own traffic.

Anyway, there is wireless now, whether it is your own company, or outside shopping malls, restaurants, hotels, KFC, McDonald's, etc., you can access the free network.

When I returned home, I basically installed the network in my own home, as long as I set it up.

So most of the time ~www.readwn.com~ everyone will not use their own traffic.

But it doesn't mean that you don't use it at any time. There are many young people who are pursuing trendy fashion, and some high-income gold-collar workers also use traffic in normal times.

Although not many people buy packages with the highest traffic, many buy packages with 500m, 1g, and 2g traffic.

The reason for the current excessively high traffic costs is not the same as those of the three major operators who opened their eyes and lied in the next few years. The current reason is indeed that the installation costs are too high and the operating costs are very high.

After all, the 3g network was officially promoted on a large scale after the previous life in 2011. In this life, it has been promoted nationwide in 2008. Compare these two time periods, the current 2009 and the previous life in 2012, the price is almost the same.

It can be said that the faster the 3g network speed and the cheaper the traffic cost, the faster the development of online commerce, social networking sites, etc. in China will be.

Even if it is just for the development of his website and online commerce, Xiao Qi must actively promote speed and fee reduction! (To be continued...) u
