Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

When I came to Shencheng, I had a meeting with the top management of Dongxu Technology. Although Yang Dongxu rarely came to Dongxu Technology, his prestige in the company was very high.

After all, the company is expanding rapidly every year, and his majesty as the helm of the company has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He does not need to appear in the company every day to increase his control over the company.

When Dongxu Technology held a meeting, the discussion was naturally more about Dongxu Technology's business. Regarding the Honor series mobile phones, Dongxu Technology's OEM is only a slightly high-end OEM.

It OEMs the motherboards and most of the electronic components of Honor mobile phones. It does not OEM the entire assembly of Honor mobile phones like Fudacon OEM.

At present, for the Honor mobile phone series, except for the Pangu system, which is produced by Honor, the chips are manufactured by Samsung and TSMC, and the mobile phone motherboards and most electronic components are produced by Dongxu Technology.

The battery is handed over to BYD, the casing is handed over to other factories for OEM, and then the headphones, chargers and other things are also handed over to other manufacturers for OEM.

Then these OEM parts will flow into Fudacom to complete the assembly of the complete machine, and then the Honor company will take samples for testing, and then put them on the market after passing the test.

Therefore, the entire Honor company only has patents on the chip design of smartphone systems and cash, as well as some technical patents such as cameras and image quality.

When it comes to mobile phone hardware, Honor does not have a production line and follows a high-precision routine similar to Apple's.

Moreover, Pangu System Yang Dongxu plans to be the same as the Apple system, which will not be open to the outside world and will form its own domain kingdom.

I can be compatible with you, but you have to pay for interoperability. Just like Apple, if you sell games on my phone, you have to give me a commission.

"So so far, we still have no way to bypass the photolithography machine to produce chips?" Yang Dongxu sat in the main seat in the large conference room of Dongxu Technology.

Sitting on his left are the senior executives of Dongxu Technology's operations department. How the entire Dongxu Technology operates is managed by these people.

Sitting on his right is the head of the R&D room and core R&D members.

Dongxu Technology's company operations are the affairs of the Operations Department, which covers the management of the entire company, the formulation of the company's development strategy, etc., and is managed by Ye Rongrong from the Operations Department.

But in the R&D department, the person in charge is a real researcher, and it is a very independent department. The operations department also has the power to make requirements for the R&D department to develop various technologies, but it has no right to interfere with various R&D activities.

Moreover, Yang Dongxu personally supervised the funds of the R&D department, and used another R&D fund account, not the account of the operations department at all, so the personnel in the R&D department were very independent.

This ensures that R&D personnel can do their own research 100% without being disturbed by unreasonable demands put forward by the operations department due to market demand.

"It's not possible based on the current technical means." The person in charge of the R&D department shook his head very frankly.

The R&D department is already at the forefront of the world in chip design, but in terms of chip production, without a photolithography machine, they are really struggling to make a fool of themselves.

“We are number one in computer hard drives, top three in the world in terms of graphics cards, memory sticks, and CPUs, and we are number one in mobile phone motherboards. At the same time, we are also among the top three in the world in terms of 3G network development and 4G network development.

Even the 4G patented technology can be said to be the first in the world, and we have begun to tentatively try 5G." The person in charge of the R&D department said.

I say this because I want to tell the big boss that they are really not sleeping in the laboratory with sky-high R&D expenses, but are really working.

"Be bold in 5G research and development, but under this premise, it is best to maintain the number one position in 4G technology. Even if we cannot maintain it, we, the rule makers, must have absolute say." Yang Dongxu said.

"There is absolutely no problem with this. No matter what, no one in the world can bypass our patented technology alone." The person in charge of the R&D department has absolute confidence in the technology at hand.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour. After the meeting, Yang Dongxu rushed to Honor Company without stopping.

Glory of the Country This is Yang Dongxu’s expectation for this company. From the current perspective, this expectation has not been fulfilled. At least the first shot of smartphones will be launched by Honor Company, setting off a new chapter in the mobile phone industry.

"Work is important, but you should also pay attention to rest." When he came to the company and saw Lei Jun with two panda eyes, Yang Dongxu patted him on the shoulder.

"I also want to rest, but as soon as I open my eyes, I see all kinds of technical problems and my mind is filled with codes. I can't sleep well, so I might as well work." Lei Jun said helplessly.

Yang Dongxu nodded with some understanding. He didn't know if Gang Leader Qiao was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night after Love Crazy 4 came out. Anyway, now he can't control his excitement, let alone Lei Jun who is actually carrying out the work.

"After the advent of mobile phones, the salary of all employees in the company increased by 10%, and they were paid 16% salary at the end of the year." Yang Dongxu did not make any big talk.

It’s a high hat that should be worn. Lei Jun has probably been beaten for a long time. People in the company may have had calluses hearing the words about being number one in the world and creating an era of our own.

Therefore, Yang Dongxu directly gave money in a very practical way. Some people say that it is cliché to ask for money, but as a company, if you don't even mention such cliché things, it is simply acting like a hooligan.

So when Yang Dongxu came up, he gave him a salary increase of 16%. In an instant, many programmers, who were staring at the same panda eyes as Lei Jun, howled and cheered uniquely to apes.

In Lei Jun's office, Yang Dongxu got the Honor 1 mobile phone. It is no exaggeration to say that this phone is currently locked in the safe.

But compared to the days when digital cameras were locked in the camera film field, the Honor 1 generation placed in the safe is about to be released and burst out with dazzling light.

"Are you ready to be the center of attention?" Yang Dongxu asked, playing with the two Honor phones, Domineering Black and Classic Silver, in his hands, looking at Lei Jun with a smile.

Seeing his employees receiving salary rewards and starting to work hard like chicken blood, Lei Jun, who was still calm, immediately turned red when he heard Yang Dongxu's words, and his eyes burst out with a sparkle he had never seen before.

"Ready." The voice was not high, but deep and powerful. It had the momentum to move forward in the face of all kinds of difficulties.

"Then we will start mass-producing 30 million units at full capacity and distribute them globally." Yang Dongxu waved his hand.

If it were another mobile phone manufacturer, and the first time it produced mobile phones and the first time it was distributed, it would sell 30 million units, others would definitely think this person is crazy.

But Yang Dongxu and Lei Jun both know that this number is actually very conservative.

Last year, 2005, China's mobile phone sales alone reached an astonishing over 80 million units. This year, it was just a few days after July.

According to the latest mobile phone sales report, China’s mobile phone sales are expected to exceed 100 million this year, and there is no data in this.

Because this statistics only counts brand-name phones, and some copycat phones and parallel-imported phones are not included in the statistics. If these mobile phones were included in the statistics, this sales figure would at least double.

Of course, this mobile phone sales volume is the total sales volume created by more than a dozen mobile phone brands in the world, plus more than a dozen domestic mobile phone brands, in China.

It still feels a bit risky to directly mass-produce 30 million units of Honor mobile phones. However, if this risk is to be distributed globally, this number is really not an exaggeration at all.

First of all, although China's economy has grown rapidly in recent years, it still has a long way to go before it becomes the world's largest consumer market.

Especially in the consumption of electronic products, Europe and the United States are the main force. Therefore, the mobile phone market in China is so hot, and it is easy to imagine the mobile phone market in the European and American markets.

30 million units, China will keep 10 million units, South Korea and Benben will divide one point, and then travel around Europe, America, and Southeast Asia. When it is flat, only the 10 million units in China will be conspicuous. How many supply reserves are there that are not seen in other places?

exaggerate.

However, it is foreseeable that the advent of smartphones will have a devastating impact on the traditional mobile phone industry.

Of course, it is not that easy to completely distribute products globally. First of all, Honor mobile phones did not have their own direct stores before this. Let alone overseas, there was not even a mobile phone store of its own in China before this.

Secondly, when distributing goods overseas, when distributing goods to that country, the text conversion of that country must be done well. In addition, finding agents and building various flagship stores cannot be completed in a short time.

However, although these things are very troublesome, Lei Jun is not worried at all. Because since the big boss has proposed global distribution, he has obviously thought of a plan in advance.

What he has to do is to make Honor mobile phones better. Continuously improving software development and hardware research and development technology to maintain technological advantages is what he needs to care about.

Lei Jun was right. Global distribution sounded domineering, but it was extremely difficult to implement. However, Yang Dongxu already had a conspiracy in his mind.

First of all, the United States will be left to Jack Jr. and the Kennedy family. They can even penetrate the European market. After all, the United States still has a considerable influence on Europe.

Secondly, the European market that these two companies cannot capture can be filled by Dai'er, a young rich woman.

Dai'er was afraid that her title as Princess of the Spencer Family would become increasingly dim as time went by. In recent years, she had taken advantage of this halo and tried her best to turn it into money of her own.

So she would definitely risk her life to eat this agent who could turn herself into a serf and sing. Even if she couldn't eat it in the end, wouldn't she still have her brother Dai'er?

The little princess of the Spencer family can't do it, but the current head of the Spencer family can definitely do it. After all, Britain is an established power in Europe, not to mention that the influence of the Spencer family is not limited to the United Kingdom, and has relationships with many European big shots.

of.

Once again, there is no need to worry about South Korea, Benben, and the Southeast Asian market. Can the land at your doorstep be robbed by others? Just arrange it directly and it will be done.

As for the domestic market, whether it is opening a counter in Millennium Supermarket or finding a store with an excellent location to open a flagship store in the Hurricane Plaza urban complex, it is a matter of minutes.

So the most important thing now is that Yang Dongxu directly solves the store aspect, and Lei Jun doesn’t need to worry about the freight. In addition to mobile phone research and development, he now has to do a lot more.

"Recruit a large number of shopping guides for training. When smartphones come out, you have to teach users how to use them, right?

For salespeople in different regions, you can train shopping guides in different languages ​​and then send them to work in stores around the world.

Those who perform well can be promoted to store managers, and those who perform poorly can make their own choice whether to stay locally or return to their country after teaching local store shopping guides how to improve users’ smartphone experience.”

"Understood." Lei Jun nodded.
