The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 534: Nokia
Coming out of the square, Yang Dongxu was about to deal with the papers in his hand, to see if he could go back to school from time to time. After all, the end of the term is coming soon. Du Fei suddenly whispered something in his ear. The back-and-forth made me feel a little bad, and I instantly became happy.
"Is there something good that I don't know about?"
"Ye Rongrong won an OEM order for 50,000 mobile phones from Nokia." Yang Dongxu said cheerfully.
Compared with the millions of mobile phone orders in the past, the 50,000 mobile phone orders are pitifully small. After all, this is the year 1995 when the global mobile phone market has not yet entered a high-speed development track. The mobile phone order for Notorola that Bessie signed before was only 10,000 units.
And Yang Dongxu is confident that as long as there are 50,000 orders as a benchmark, only Dongxu Technology will definitely receive orders for electronic products, especially mobile phones, and will definitely become the leader of global OEM companies in an instant.
"Nokia?" Han Xing was stunned for a moment, but did not realize the name of the mobile phone brand.
At present, most of the eyes in the country are focused on the United States. Who made the polar bear become the only superpower in the world. So as long as it has something to do with the United States, even stinky shit feels three points more fragrant, all kinds of high-end, all kinds of high-tech.
Therefore, domestic businessmen with a vision for the emerging mobile phone market are naturally the first to focus on Motorola in the United States, rather than Nokia in Finland, a small Nordic country. Many people have never even heard of the name.
However, Yang Dongxu, who has been there, knows that starting this year, this seemingly inconspicuous mobile phone brand from a small European country will rise rapidly, directly kill the currently seemingly powerful Motorola, and become the leader of the world's mobile phone industry, dominating this industry for more than ten years.
It wasn't until the emergence of smart machines headed by Apple that this giant was caught off guard and ended his dominance era.
"A good mobile phone brand." Yang Dongxu didn't explain anything.
Han Xing nodded and didn't ask any further questions, thinking that Yang Dongxu couldn't get some well-known mobile phone companies back from Baiqian, so he found this not-so-famous mobile phone manufacturer to cooperate with. The reason was not to lose face in front of Bai Qian, so he didn't think deeply about it.
It's not just Han Xing who thinks this way, he knew about it immediately, and everyone thought so after investigating Nokia.
Because compared with Motorola, the current Nokia is indeed a younger brother, but what everyone did not expect is that it is only a year, or only a few months after the cooperation with Tunghsu Technology. This being regarded as a younger brother by Motorola instantly became a grandpa.
Yang Dongxu came to the hotel from the factory and saw Ye Rongrong and his party, in order to surprise Yang Dongxu. She did not notify Yang Dongxu immediately after signing the contract, but directly brought the Nokia negotiator to Ningbo.
In fact, this is not only her meaning, but also the meaning of the Nokia negotiator, Carew Edward. Karu-Edward is a typical Finn, not very tall, with a round body and a big beard.
However, this unremarkable guy is one of the shareholders of Nokia, and is currently one of the four deputy general managers with the last real power in the Nokia company, and is also the most powerful contender for the next Nokia CEO. Under the ordinary appearance hides an extremely meticulous heart, and the ability is also very outstanding.
"Haha, Karu didn't expect you to be a fat guy." Seeing Karu, Yang Dongxu froze for a moment, then thought of something, laughed and opened his arms and hugged him, but the language he greeted was not English, It's Swedish.
After self-studying French and German, Yang Dongxu has recently begun to conquer the small languages that he is more interested in. Sometimes language is a very wonderful door. As long as you can walk through the door, you will find that learning a foreign language is not as difficult as you imagined. Many languages seem to be unrelated, but in fact, you can find some similar laws and master them. With this rule, you can learn a foreign language very quickly.
"You are. Yang?" Although he is much thicker than Yang Dongxu, he still feels a little uncomfortable being hugged by Yang Dongxu, who is about 1.8 meters tall. He looked at Yang Dongxu in surprise.
The two hadn't met before, but they were on the phone. Because this time Nokia only sent people to China to discuss OEM cooperation. It was Yang Dongxu who applied to the board of directors as a shareholder, and the person in charge of this matter was Karoo who was very interested in China.
The two of them talked on the phone more than once, and often chatted for more than an hour each time, because when talking about the development and future of the mobile phone industry, the two of them can always find a common language and have a feeling of sympathy. As for the damn Go to hell with high international calling charges.
But on the phone, although Yang Dongxu's voice is young, he has such a clear understanding of mobile phones. He thinks that Yang Dongxu should not be too young, and he is an elite who has been in the mobile phone industry for at least ten years. Even if he can't figure out that Huaxia's mobile phone industry has developed for ten years.
At this time, although Chinese people are the same as foreigners, foreigners are also in a state of face blindness when they see Chinese people. But he can still see the childishness on Yang Dongxu's face. Although the guy in front of him is very tall, he is definitely not more than 25 years old. That said, he still overestimated Yang Dongxu's age, because Yang Dongxu will only celebrate his 20th birthday in a few months.
"It's me, Karu. Have you finished signing the contract? Don't worry, I will never cheat my friends. The sales of this batch of goods will not cause headaches for the company." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
Yang Dongxu, who is only 42 years old this year, is very optimistic about Kalu Yang Dongxu, especially during the chat some time ago, this guy actually proposed some prototypes of the Symbian system, which surprised Yang Dongxu, and he wished to put this guy directly. dug over.
In the eyes of later generations, the Symbian system was a failure, because he was so beaten by the Android and Apple systems that he couldn't even find his mother. But you can't deny that this is one of the predecessors of the intelligent system, and Symbian is only responsible for the failure of Nokia's top management, not that this system is really a piece of rubbish.
If one of Nokia's top executives could recognize the future development direction of smartphones and was willing to pay for this future and invest a lot of money in research and development, then it is really unclear whether there will be Apple in the future. After all, Nokia at that time was definitely the well-deserved overlord of the mobile phone industry, and its hardware production level has always emphasized the user experience.
"Your age is really unbelievable." Karu still looked at Yang Dongxu with a look of surprise, although he had already judged from the voice that the young and excessive guy in front of him was talking with himself on the phone about the development of mobile phones But he still couldn't believe it was real.
"There is an old saying in China, which is called the teacher who is the first to learn. It means that we should not look at a person's age, but to see how profound a person's knowledge is. Even if he is very young, he has enough profound knowledge. Learn from him too."
"Although I don't understand the Chinese proverb you said, your explanation makes me feel like you are praising yourself." After the surprise in his brain calmed down, Karoo joked.
"Haha, I have such a feeling. Let's go to my room and show you some new designs of mobile phones that I have recently come up with." Yang Dongxu said with a big smile, putting his arms around Kalu's shoulders.
The people next to him only saw Yang Dongxu and the bearded man chattering, and then the bearded man happily went upstairs with Yang Dongxu, while the interpreter was still standing there with a dazed expression, and many people also had expressions on their faces. Don't know what happened.
"What did they say just now?" Ye Rongrong asked the translator in a daze.
"I don't know that. He doesn't speak English." The translator shook his head in confusion, then remembered something and asked another translator in English.
That's right, there were two translators at the scene, one brought by Karu and the other by Ye Rongrong. Bringing two translators is not for convenience.
It's because there are no translators who can speak Chinese in Finland, and there are no translators who can speak Swedish or Finnish in China. Therefore, there can only be one English translator who can speak Swedish, and another English translator who can speak Chinese, so that the two sides can communicate.
Hearing the English translator's question, the Swedish translator Ji Liguala spoke in English, then quickly followed up with his boss, and looked at Yang Dongxu's back very curiously. It was the first time she met a guy who spoke Swedish so smooth abroad. Although she was in a hurry, she couldn't stop her curiosity about this man.
"She said that person just now spoke Swedish. He and Mr. Carew seem to know each other and are still friends, so the two of them decided to go upstairs to the room and have a good chat. Boss, we"
"Oh, that's it. Let's go back to the room and have a rest. It's quite tiring to come all the way." Hearing that Yang Dongxu wanted to chat with Kalu and didn't signal her to follow, Ye Rongrong naturally didn't plan to follow.
However, she was still a little surprised that Yang Dongxu could speak Swedish, but she didn't show it on her face. Because he knew that Yang Dongxu could speak English and Russian after speaking Swedish, and her husband Wu Aibing said that Yang Dongxu seemed to have learned German before, which made her feel that some people's success is not unreasonable.
"Go back to the room to rest?" The interpreter was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "The boss, Mr. Karu, is a foreign guest we invited to discuss cooperation, how can we talk to you?"
"Why, do you want to go up and act as an interpreter for the big boss?"
"We must go up, otherwise what if he bumps into a foreign guest?" The interpreter said quickly, but he didn't realize it until he finished speaking: "Huh? That's the big boss?"
"Otherwise, what do you think I'm rushing here with the Karu line?" Ye Rongrong almost laughed when she saw the translator with a silly face, and then patted the translator's shoulder like a hotel elevator with an unfathomable expression. go.
Back to English is great ah? If it’s not that my mother is too busy with work and has no time to study, and because the government is cooperating with foreign businessmen, the government is afraid of misunderstandings due to poor communication, and sent you as an interpreter, do you think you are only afraid that your mother will use you if you look like a foreigner? Just like you, if you come to Tunghsu Technology to clean the toilet, you will feel that your salary will be raised.
How about meeting someone like a big boss who is richer than you and speaks foreign languages better than you? Dumbfounded now!
