Chapter 471 Inviting all the billionaires in Xiangjiang
“This is good news. After multiple tests, our mobile signal has covered most of the areas in the center of Xiangjiang, although the signal may not be very good in many places or The signal is unstable, but after all, we are the first mobile signal network in the world to cover cities, so according to the current situation, we can officially release and sell mobile phones to the outside world," Wei Li reported to Su Chenghui excitedly.
Weili is very optimistic about the profitability of the Oracle computer of the Su Group. He has long been looking forward to the completion of the cellular mobile telecommunications system of Hutchison Telecommunications Company as soon as possible, and then begins to release and sell mobile phones to the outside world. Now , finally waited, how could he not be excited!
"Well, that's good news indeed. How many mobile phones are there in stock?" Su Cheng asked.
Since we are preparing for release, we naturally need to prepare enough goods.
However, as Xiangjiang is the first city in the world to officially commercialize mobile phones, Sioux City is not afraid of other competitors.
Of course, with the release of Yunsheng mobile phones, mobile phone research pioneers such as Motorola, Lucent, and Bell Labs will definitely speed up their research and development time. It is impossible to be like Sioux City’s previous life. That world was the same, and it was not officially born until 1983.
During this period, Su Cheng also felt that when the signal light of his Yunsheng S1 mobile phone was in the urban area, it basically lit up green, unless it was in some places with too many obstructions. Only then will the red light appear.
“Mobile phones have been in accelerated production during this period. Although the speed is a bit slow, nearly 8,000 units have been produced so far. According to the current purchasing power of Xiangjiang, although it cannot be satisfied for the time being, with the production As the technology becomes more and more mature, our production speed will become faster and faster. Next, we will look at the booking situation after the release. If the booking volume is considerable, we will also spend more costs to increase the production line. By then, the output will not be a problem. Yes." Weili replied with a smile.
"Okay, when do you plan to hold a press conference?" Su Cheng asked.
"We plan to release it on January 26, 1979, because January 27 is your traditional Chinese festival, and everyone's focus may be on family reunions or visiting relatives and friends, so we will release it on New Year's Eve. If we publish it the day before, we can achieve the goal of attracting the attention of all Xiangjiang people.
When they chat with relatives and friends on New Year’s Eve or even the Spring Festival on January 27, our mobile phones will be frequently used. Mention, this will also help increase our visibility! I hope the boss can come on the day of the press conference, and it is best to come on stage to speak for you. Boss, you are very famous in Hong Kong." Wei Li has obviously already been with Hutchison Telecom. The company has discussed it.
"Okay, I will be there to support you when the time comes. It's okay to go on stage and take the spotlight to create more hot topics for our mobile phones. But as long as the press conference is entirely your responsibility, I won't How long do you plan to stay there?" Su Cheng said with a smile.
“Don’t worry, boss, the press conference will not be hosted by me, but by Landon Moore, the general manager of Hutchison Telecommunications. He is more professional in this area and will speak more professionally. , and he has lived in Xiangjiang since he was a child, and he speaks better than me in Xiangjiang. If he presides over the release, the effect will be even better," Wei Li said.
Su Cheng was also surprised. He did not expect that Weili would give up this opportunity to be recorded in history.
After all, this press conference can be regarded as the world's first commercial mobile phone conference. It will definitely go down in the history of technology, and the person who hosted the press conference will naturally go down in history as well.
Just when Su Cheng was about to hang up the phone, Wei Li still had something to trouble Su Cheng.
“By the way, boss, I have one more thing to trouble you with. It might be more appropriate if you do it,” Weili said. "Oh? What do you want me to do personally?" Su Cheng was a little surprised.
“Our mobile phones are relatively expensive after all, and ordinary people are basically reluctant to spend money to buy them. Therefore, our target customers are the rich people in Xiangjiang, so I plan to sell them to Xiangjiang. All billionaires are invited to our mobile phone launch conference. This will not only build momentum for our launch, but these rich people are also one of our target customers. After attending the conference, they will definitely hope to Being one of the first mobile phone users is an indirect endorsement for us," Wei Li said with a smile.
"Okay, leave this to me. I don't have much to do during this period." Su Cheng nodded.
After hanging up Wei Li's call, Su Cheng's eyes shifted to the mobile phone beside him.
Press the power switch, and after a while, the signal light above quickly turns red, and after a while it turns from red to green.
This is the signal when the mobile phone is connected near the phone after it is turned on. After the connection is successful, the signal light will turn from red to green.
Barker Road is a wealthy area. Many people are the target customers of Yunsheng S1 mobile phone. Although they live in scattered places, Hutchison Telecommunications Company still set up signal towers here.
And, most importantly, this is where the boss of Hutchison Whampoa Group lives in Sioux City, so how can there be no signal coverage!
Su Cheng played with it for a while, then put the mobile phone back on the table with a smile.
Although he has already used a mobile phone, it is not officially commercialized after all. It is also a good thing to see the popularity of mobile phones in Hong Kong.
Explanation, this Yunsheng S1 mobile phone can finally make money.
If it is a mobile phone developed by other companies, it is very difficult to get back the original investment. For example, Motorola, they spent nearly ten years to develop this mobile phone. Even if they successfully sell the product first, they don’t know how many mobile phones they would have to sell to earn back the cost, let alone make a profit.
As for Hutchison Telecom's mobile phones, because the technology is ready-made, it does not require much investment in research and development, and the time cost is almost not much. Therefore, if you want to make money after the release, it is actually very simple, just rely on In the small market of Xiangjiang, Hutchison Telecom can make a lot of money, let alone expand overseas markets in the future.
However, this will be in vain compared to the efforts made by Motorola and other companies over the years.
After research and development, I found that a telecommunications company I had never heard of had come up with more advanced and stable technology. Compared with the technology in their hands, it could no longer keep up with the times.
Offended Motorola? Sioux City is not afraid. During this period, it has also poached a lot of talents from Motorola. They are competitors themselves, and there is nothing they can't offend.
