The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

1995 can be said to be the most representative year for the development of the mobile phone industry. Since the first mobile phone was launched in 1983, people did not edit the first text message until 1992. It was only in 1993 that mainland mobile phones became popular in China, and in 1995, flip phones had already been released, and their volume was completely reduced by twice as much as before.

And at present, the country has already discussed with Ericsson the first GSM phone to enter the country, and Guangzhou has started to open the GSM network.

In China's 2G network construction under the influence of Yang Dongxu, Nokia can be said to have contributed a lot, and of course it has made a lot of profits, but it does not pay attention to the Chinese market in terms of mobile phone sales, just like other countries in the world.

Since Nokia sold off its traditional departments in 1990 to lighten its burden, leaving only the electronics department, it can be said that it has achieved earth-shaking changes in just four years.

In particular, the emergence of the Nokia 2100 in the past 94 years has made it the standard for GSM digital communication in Europe. With clear sound quality, smart shape, large-scale display and scrolling text menu, this phone has sold 20 million units.

Such a sharp increase in sales has further stimulated the enthusiasm of all Nokia staff, making them prepare to take advantage of the victory and pursue to kill the leader Motorola in the international market. For the time being, these two giants have not paid enough attention to the Chinese market.

Because whether it is a Chinese operating system or a mobile phone text message editor. At present, neither of the two mobile phone companies intends to develop Chinese. They are both paying attention to the English market and grabbing international shares.

This time, Yang Dongxu used the 50,000 mobile phone OEM shares he obtained as a shareholder, and the content he planned to embed was the Chinese operating system and SMS editing function.

Compared with foreign phone bills that have been continuously reduced due to constant competition, domestic phone bills are still a complaint even after 2018.

Before Wifi appeared, the amount of text messages sent by mobile phones was absolutely surprising to foreigners. Therefore, the emergence of marginal Chinese SMS mobile phones is the beginning of truly pushing the domestic mobile phone market.

I chatted with Karu all night in the room, and both of them had a great time chatting. But what makes Yang Dongxu a little dissatisfied is that no matter how he guides Karoo, he still decides to focus on the international market in the next few years. To be precise, the economically developed European and American countries will only focus on South Korea. , Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan are well-developed places.

There is little interest in Karoo in the Mainland, which is the consensus of most shareholders of Nokia. So Yang Dongxu, who was a little angry at the end, directly put forward a condition. He won the power of Nokia's general agent in China at a price of 100 million yuan per year.

Nokia will be satisfied no matter how many mobile phones Yang Dongxu wants, but these mobile phones are only sold in China and are not allowed to be sold abroad, and Yang Dongxu needs to be responsible for his own profits and losses whether he can sell them.

The accurate belief is that Yang Dongxu needs to buy 100 million yuan of mobile phones from Nokia every year to sell in China. As for whether he can sell back the 100 million yuan cost, that is Yang Dongxu's own problem, and this country does not include Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. It is limited to the mainland.

As for Yang Dongxu wanting to get the goods again after exceeding 100 million, he needs to give Nokia a 10% profit margin, and then give as much goods as he wants.

This profit margin seems to be very low, but it is not low at all. Because Nokia can be said to be a conscientious company, their net interest rate is generally around 17%, and basically will not exceed 20%. It can't be compared with those smartphones in later generations that are 100% or even hundreds of times relying on brand advantages.

It is precisely because of such solid quality and the price-performance ratio beyond ordinary mobile phones that Nokia has become the overlord of mobile phones in the world, so it is not unreasonable to drink and peck.

After discussing this contract with the Finnish board of directors, Karoo rejected Yang Dongxu's idea of ​​signing it for 20 years at a stretch. Originally, he only signed Yang Dongxu for five years, but after several discussions, he halved the contract and signed it for ten years.

In fact, it was only signed for ten years, not 20 years. Karu played a big role in this. Although Yang Dongxu is regarded as a friend, foreigners clearly distinguish between work and personal relationships.

After knowing that Yang Dongxu is definitely a business genius that does not match his age, even Karu felt that Yang Dongxu had to sign such a contract with a minimum guarantee because he was dazzled by patriotism.

But as one of Nokia's shareholders, and also the person in charge of coming to China this time, he must be responsible for the company and use the first-hand information he has to check the company.

So when he came up, he promised Yang Dongxu that the term of agency was 5 years, which he felt was too long. As a shareholder who is optimistic about the mobile phone industry and it, he thinks it is more reasonable to sign one contract every year. Even so, it is unfair to Yang Dongxu, but it is very beneficial to the company and can be adjusted according to market changes.

His request was naturally rejected by Yang Dongxu, and he called Zhou Ya directly and asked her to go to Finland to hold a shareholder meeting. Finally, after most of the shareholders voted, Yang Dongxu got a 10-year agency contract.

"I always have a hunch that those old guys who agree to this contract will regret it and want to hang themselves." In the hotel restaurant, Karu, who was really not used to using chopsticks, ate the ingredients in front of him with forks and spoons.

Invite foreigners to eat Chinese food, and it is just some home-cooked dishes, not some noodles. Now only Yang Dongxu can do it. Nowadays, foreign businessmen are generally entertained with western food. I am afraid that these foreign guests will not sign the contract because they can't eat well.

"Then I sincerely hope that your premonition will come true, because that means I will make a lot of money." Yang Dongxu smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand.

"Then you can invite me to have a big meal. I heard that there are many unbelievable meals in China. This is just an appetizer." Karu said half-jokingly, and picked out the pepper on the chicken diced on the plate. Put it into your mouth, and pick the second one while sucking in the cool air.

There is a kind of cold that you think Finland is very cold. Although a quarter of the country's land area is in the Arctic Circle, most of the Finns do not live in the land of the Arctic Circle. Coupled with the influence of the Atlantic warm current, Finland is comparable to other countries at the same latitude. The country is much warmer.

Therefore, although the Finns who are highly alcoholic also drink, it is only limited to some, not like everyone in Russia likes to drink vodka.

Therefore, Kalu can’t get used to chili, a very irritating food, for a while, but the biggest feature of Chinese food with chili is that the hotter it is, the more you want to eat it. Even if your lips are hot, you still can’t bear to stop the action in your hands .

"Haha, definitely." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

"How can a victory bought with money be so happy? Should I kiss you?" An untimely voice sounded from the side, and Yang Dongxu turned his head to see Bai Qian's figure.

In fact, after saying this, Bai Qian regretted it. As the Queen of Bai, she has always been aloof, and she has never said such acrimonious words like she is now.

But she didn't know why she didn't like this man from the first time she saw Yang Dongxu, and the reason was not only because this man beat her younger brother, but also a kind of vigilance and unspeakable hostility towards the same kind.

It can be said that Baiqian has been smart since she was a child, both in terms of IQ and EQ. Otherwise, it would be impossible to learn six languages, and she graduated from Oxford at the age of 20, and entered a hundred industries as a daughter. In just one year, Baijia's industry has doubled tenfold.

Let Baijia completely break free from the shackles of the economy, and have a more flexible political layout. It can be said that she created a business miracle in just three years.

And in the patriarchal environment of Baijia, as a daughter, she is in charge of all the properties of Baijia. Although Baijia's own resources played an indispensable role in this process, you have to admit that she is indeed a person who is qualified to be a 'queen'.

But such a queen has been hearing all kinds of genius stories about a person who is younger than her since she returned to China. She is a top student, and the other party is also a top student. Although the other party has not gone abroad, it seems that she is a little better than her.

She is a business genius, and the other party is simply the godfather of business. Starting from scratch, just by looking at the information currently available in the country, he has mastered assets of no less than tens of billions. If what she did can be called a miracle, then Yang Dongxu is a legend.

It seems that Yang Dongxu can overwhelm her in everything, especially this guy is only 20 years old this year. This made Bai Qian feel like a mountaineering enthusiast standing on a mountain when facing Yang Dongxu, and unexpectedly saw a higher mountain in the distance, so she unconsciously developed a desire to challenge and conquer.

And Yang Dongxu usually seems to be as unknown as a big mountain, but he is definitely not the kind of temper who is easily climbed and conquered. So he could respond to Bai Qian's provocation because he was lazy, but he would definitely not not fight back after Bai Qian made a move.

"Crazy thinking about money, I'll invest tens of millions with just one kiss, are you sure you're so valuable?" Yang Dongxu looked at Bai Qian with a smile, his eyes lingering on her red lips involuntarily.

"You..." Bai Qian's face instantly flushed red, obviously Yang Dongxu's mean words made her feel humiliated instantly.

But thinking about it carefully, she also felt that her provocation just now was indeed too careless. After all, no matter what method Yang Dongxu used to get the Nokia mobile phone OEM order, 50,000 mobile phones are not a small amount to put there.

If it was just to win him out of anger, Yang Dongxu would have spent tens of millions without consequence. Then she really looked up to this guy before.

So even if you don't want to admit it, you have to admit that Yang Dongxu won such a large OEM order all at once. The main reason is because they are optimistic about the mobile phone market and mobile phone OEMs, and beating her to Baiqian is just a matter of convenience. But it was this kind of smoothness that hit people even more, and made people even more angry.
