Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 570: Fierce Competition

Although the matter between Qu Li and Lei Jun is not perfect, it can only be like this for the time being. It is difficult for things in the world to be perfect, just like Qu Lirong's production and design of smart watches, true wireless Bluetooth headsets and smart voice speakers, but there are several samples, but he is not satisfied.

For example, the simplest intelligent voice speakers, their artificial mental retardation is not competent: "Let our Klun have two modes, one stand-alone and one networked." "In addition, we also need to do research on artificial intelligence."

This is something that Qu Li can think of. There is really no way for true wireless Bluetooth headsets, so the new product release in January next year will only be the new product Honor Watch. In fact, Samsung also has a smart watch equipped with Android system this year, but their direction is not sports monitoring and health management, they have a camera to shoot video, is there any reverie that should not appear, it is very suitable for Dongying people, right?

"No!" Qu Li tried playing for a long time, but finally rejected their plan

"Why, this product is good enough."

"What about wireless charging, what about a highly fluent operating system, and what about simple interactions?"

Qu Li's few words in succession immediately made the engineer who wanted to roar shrivel down.

Honor Watch must use KOS based on Linux instead of Android, including the processor chip, which is the legendary full-stack self-developed (excluding sensors, etc.).

"We need more resources to support..." Zou Da, head of Honor Watch

"I haven't arranged enough for you?" Qu Li glared at Zou Da

"It has never been implemented." Zou Da insisted

"What's the problem?"

"Caught by Mr. Li, he is not optimistic about this project and doesn't want to waste money..."

"..."

There is only one person in Glory, Mr. Li, who can make Kaquli's decision on the project himself.

"Then bypass him and give it directly, do you dare to take it?" Qu Li hesitated for a while and said, Li Yinan is a member of the board of directors of Glory, the company's deputy director and CTO, and has a high position. If Zou Da offends Li Yinan, the smart watch project will fail in the end , then you can only resign.

"There's nothing to dare!" Zou Da didn't expect Qu Li to be so decisive.

"Well, good luck to you." Qu Li didn't put any more pressure on him.

Things are settled here, and Zhou Hongyi from 365 over there sent a message through a friend to ask Qu Li to meet. Qu Li didn't have much malice towards Zhou Hongyi. Even if 365 didn't renew the contract with Gu Ge Search, it was normal business competition and there was nothing wrong with it.

But Mr. Lei, Zhou Hongyi's fellow countryman, was not happy with his former good friend.

"This year, domestic Internet giants manufacture mobile phones, and Honor mobile phones have been beaten up in various ways. This guy is crazy about porcelain, saying that our mobile phones are of poor quality and extremely low cost performance..."

"Weibo, Kaixin.com, Friends.com and other social networking sites are full of people hacking us. Although it may be the collective behavior of those big companies, 365 is the most popular."

"Shouldn't domestic manufacturers and I be regarded as competitors?" Qu Li thought that he had already given up the mobile phone market with a price of less than 2,000, which was generous enough. According to the analysis of the domestic market at this time, he had given up about 70% of the market share.

"IPhone and Honor are the two best smartphone companies in the world. Gao Yushan said that some companies want to break consumers' perceptions. IPhone's products are the strongest. Honor's self-developed chips and Android system are..."

It turns out that persimmons should be squeezed and eaten softly. Honor's publicity and Qu Li's business routines are all about "self-centered", talking about their own progress, not evaluating competitors, and talking about Apple's IPhone when they want to discuss. For example, with the support of this year's 28nm process chips and larger memory, the user experience of Honor mobile phones is far from that of iPhones.

"Even if we are defeated, there are still big international manufacturers such as Samsung and Nokia."

"Maybe they think that Glory can do it, and they all have a chance."

Thief and thief, this group of people thought that Honor, like Tesla, had no marketing expenses, and they were widely rumored that the brakes failed, but they didn't have enough countermeasures, so they could only take the legal route of prosecution.

"Many of these domestic companies have established high-end brands..."

"Pfft..." Qu Li didn't expect someone to be so stubborn, "Why should they?"

It is already 2012, Honor has been listed, and its market value is currently maintained at about 150 billion US dollars. Operator channels all over the world, including online e-commerce, and offline retail channels have been improved. This year's sales and profits have increased. How do they dare?

This is actually easy to explain. The coarse-grain mobile phone has succeeded, a bunch of artificial Internet mobile phones, and Tesla’s development path of pure electric vehicles from high-end to low-end has been verified. Wei Xiaoli, including Jobs, have followed up and learned. Glory and IPhone go the same way...

"After the Qinglong No. 2 chip was released, many venture capitalists withdrew funds from high-end mobile phone start-ups..."

"Is this a disaster for the fish in the pond?"

"No, it has nothing to do with us." Lei Jun said with a smile. Behind a successful company, there must be a competitor who "broke his family and died", so there is no successful entrepreneur in the world who has a "compassionate" Madonna personality.

So try not to think that there are "good people" that ordinary people think of as entrepreneurs. Lei Jun has already started to defend and counterattack. For example, the Chrysanthemum Factory, which was preparing to produce 365 special supply machines, temporarily changed its mind, suspended cooperation with 365, and threatened other suppliers. ...

Many domestic smartphone industry chains are supported by Apple and Honor. Although there is no equity relationship, the various cooperations are very close. It seems that Apple wants Futukang to choose between IPhone and coarse grain mobile phones. The result is suspenseful. ?

The 365 special supply aircraft is now, huh, huh, let’s not talk about the result, anyway, it has greatly shocked the black fans. Of course, it’s not all about threats. Honor invested 10 billion yuan in BOE’s development of LCD panels, not even a share. The outside world was still skeptical about the news that Honor spent money to support the supply chain, but now they believe it.

Someone said on the Internet: "If someone really spends money on technical research and development for suppliers like Honor, let alone setting KPIs for cats, even if setting KPIs for watchdogs, I will definitely do it."

The matter of Glory or Qu Li setting KPIs for cats was also a "meme" that was widely circulated on the Internet in 2012. At first glance, it seemed harsh and lacking in human touch, but behind it was not only real money, but also a management system. upgrade.

For at least two or three years, Apple and Honor have the absolute right to speak in the domestic smartphone supply chain companies, which means that in the country where the "New King" was established, if you want to overthrow the "New King", you can only say " Good luck".

In the end, Qu Li did not meet Zhou Hongyi, and flew back to Yangcheng. This year's New Year's Eve speech did not change cities. Many Internet bigwigs stopped coming, but more and more fans at home and abroad wanted to hear his bragging.
