Top of the big era

When I came to Kejian again, I was beaming.

Zhou Buqi represented Ziweixing Technology, Liu Qiangdong represented JD.com, and Zhao Kai'an represented Zhongkejian, and successfully signed the order contract.

160 million yuan, packing 753,000 mobile phones in Kejian's warehouse!

On average, the purchase price of each mobile phone is only more than 200 yuan.

These are all "new machines" produced in 2004!

After signing the contract, Zhou Buqi and Liu Qiangdong looked at each other, and they both saw almost greedy excitement in each other's eyes.

In the past few group buying cooperations, most of the profits came from Xiaonei.com, and JD.com earned a lot of hard work, more to attract traffic and prepare for the next financing.

This time is different.

Jingdong showed great sincerity, and Liu Qiangdong's personality charm was fully displayed, embezzling 70 million of the payment to complete the transaction.

Xiaonei also made concessions.

This time selling mobile phones, the profit is 30% to 70%.

Jingdong 30% and Xiaonei 70%.

This is necessary. If this batch of mobile phones that have been seriously unsalable after market testing, if they want to counterattack, they must rely on unique marketing methods and a special group of college students.

Xiaonei.com plays a central role, and JD.com is an auxiliary.

That night, there was a celebration reception.

Zhou Buqi brought Wu Yu, Guo Pengfei, Chen Dong, Ji Zian, Xu Baihui and many others to attend.

On the JD.com side, more than a dozen people also participated.

Five bottles of Wuliangye were opened, and two cases of red wine were made.

It can be regarded as letting everyone see the power of Jingdong wine culture.

Fortunately, Zhou Buqi had a girlfriend by his side, and Wu Yu was embarrassed to say a few words when others persuaded him to drink. In terms of alcohol capacity, Zhou Buqi is much worse than Liu Qiangdong.

"Hey, I didn't bother you young couple, did I?"

Liu Qiangdong couldn't take it anymore, and went to the balcony of the hotel, intending to relax for a while, but saw Zhou Buqi and Wu Yu each holding a glass of red wine, whispering and chatting about something.

"no."

Wu Yu smiled sweetly, then found a reason to leave, and gave the other party the space.

Holding a wine glass, Liu Qiangdong respected him from a distance, and said with emotion: "The water in this mobile phone industry is very deep, let alone Kejian, even Bird has encountered a big crisis. Otherwise, they will not make a big difference. Make a price and come to participate in our campus group buying."

"The root cause is the lack of core technology."

"Oh? Do you have an opinion?"

Zhou Buqi said: "During the period from 2001 to 2003, the mobile phone industry was extremely profitable. From the top to the bottom of the entire industrial chain, any link with a profit margin of less than 50% would make people laugh. At that time, the supply of mobile phones was in short supply. You can sell as much as you want.”

Liu Qiangdong asked him strangely: "What does this have to do with technology?"

Zhou Buqi said: "The mobile phones here in China are all IDH designs, mainly using MediaTek chips, with low prices, sufficient supply, and simple channels. They have a huge advantage in terms of cost compared to foreign mobile phones. They are domestic mobile phones. Later, foreign chip technology was upgraded and music phones were launched. However, MediaTek technology has not yet broken through and cannot produce such high-end chips.”

Liu Qiangdong is not very clear about the inside story of the mobile phone industry, but fortunately he has been in contact with a lot during this period, and agrees: "Yes, science and technology are the primary productive forces."

Zhou Buqi sighed: "Such high-end chips are usually in short supply. If domestic mobile phone manufacturers want to buy them, they must pay a substantial premium. This will inevitably greatly increase the manufacturing cost of mobile phones. The price advantage of domestic mobile phones in the high-end phone market Nothing left."

The appeal of music phones is too great.

In this day and age, everyone still listens to music with electronic devices such as MP3 and MP4. If anyone listens to music on a mobile phone, it will be a mess.

But in fact, the sound quality of mobile phones is very poor, far from being comparable to professional Walkman equipment.

Liu Qiangdong pondered: "The high-end mobile phone market is indeed dominated by foreign brands, and Bird has to cooperate with us to increase shipments. High-end chips are hindered, and domestic mobile phone manufacturers can only compete in the low-end mobile phone market. Products pile up and profits are compressed. This is probably the reason why so many mobile phone manufacturers have closed down this year."

Zhou Buqi smiled mockingly, "This is only one aspect. What's more important is the deformity of the mobile phone industry chain. I'm talking about terminal sales. The general environment is not good, and the profit of mobile phones has been severely reduced. As a result, big shopping malls are particularly interested in foreign brands. Friendly, trying to use foreign brands to add halo to themselves, but bullying domestic manufacturers... The way of offline sales is dead, let’s see if we can come up with a different online sales model.”

Xiaomi can quickly spread across the country and rewrite the pattern of the domestic mobile phone industry, just rejecting middlemen and selling directly online.

Liu Qiangdong said: "I guess these domestic semiconductor companies can't count on it, and they have to rely on MediaTek. When MediaTek makes a breakthrough in technology, there may be a chance to catch up."

Zhou Buqi's complexion sank, he shook his head, and stopped talking.

By next year, MediaTek's technology should make a breakthrough, and music phones will no longer be an obstacle. Moreover, MediaTek has also integrated the product line and launched a complete mobile phone design plan. The price of a plan is only 100,000, and domestic mobile phones have entered the era of knock-off phones.

But what about abroad?

It was another scene.

Jobs is apotheosis.

A few years ago, Apple fell into a crisis, and Jobs launched the iPod to save the company from the crisis. Next, Mr. Qiao wanted to put the iPod player on the mobile phone to better serve users.

Then, there was Motorola.

After more than a year of silence, Motorola made a breakthrough in technology, and the music phone came out, leading a new era of global mobile phones.

fame.

As a result, Jobs was furious when he got Motorola's prototype.

He said it's not a phone, it's a piece of shit.

The subordinates were shocked, this is Motorola, the top mobile phone manufacturer in the world. You can't even look down on Motorola's mobile phones. There is no mobile phone in this world that you can look up to.

Jobs was decisive.

Renamed Apple Computer to Apple Inc.

If others can't produce a mobile phone that meets his requirements, he makes it himself...

Another technology giant, Google, is starting to develop the Android system. With one stroke of the flag, more than 200 top suppliers and mobile phone manufacturers around the world responded one after another, dispatching elite troops to cooperate with open source to help the collaboration of software and hardware.

It can be said that the current situation in the domestic mobile phone industry is extremely severe, and even the giant CEC Sailong, which has acquired Philips' mobile phone business, is about to face bankruptcy.

There is a depression in the country, and there is a lot of accumulation abroad.

Even if Zhou Buqi lived a new life, in the face of this era pattern, he could only sigh.

This is different from the Internet industry.

The Internet is an emerging market, and the gap between China and the United States is not that big. In fact, there are not many technological innovations in this industry, but more innovations at the service level, introducing new shopping methods, payment methods, new travel methods and job hunting methods, etc.

The mobile phone industry focuses on innovation in the basic aspects of the industry, which is the accumulation of research and development and manufacturing.

In China, more emphasis is placed on design and assembly...

Especially in 2006, when MediaTek made a technological breakthrough and developed a new chip, domestic mobile phone manufacturers cheered and were pleasantly surprised. Then Lenovo, BBK, TCL, Bird, ZTE and other mobile phone manufacturers abolished their R\u0026D departments one after another.

There are too many problems, involving all aspects, and it is simply beyond the reach of personal strength.

If possible, Zhou Buqi doesn't want to get involved in the mobile phone industry at all, and if he has the opportunity, he can use online platforms to help domestic manufacturers sell mobile phones.

But things backfired.

During the vacation, his father Zhou Jianjun called him enthusiastically.

It is said that the attitude of the old man has changed. It seems that he is not as stubborn as before, and his attitude towards separation is not so firm. Dad said that if the family is separated, he can at least share 100 million property!

Coupled with the savings, real estate over the years, and a small factory he secretly operated outside, the total production capacity reached 120 million.

Dad is only 45 years old this year, and he still has a drive.

He said that if he successfully obtained the family property, he wanted to use the money to enter the mobile phone industry and make mobile phones.

Dad has been living in the Zhou family these years, living in the shadow of his grandfather and uncle. He has ambitions in his chest, but he dare not show them. He pretends to be stupid every day...

If he works alone, he will definitely think about doing a big job and making some achievements. Give back all the bitterness and indifference I have received in the past few decades.

Zhou Buqi could feel the grievances his father had suffered over the years.

Dad wants to do great things, and he has no reason not to support it.

only……

Why!

Headache!

...

At the end of the reception, Wu Yu was slightly drunk.

The two held hands, spreading across the streets of Wudaokou, bathed in gorgeous neon colors, and filled with a faint romantic atmosphere.

Zhou Buqi gently hugged his girlfriend's waist, enjoying the atmosphere very much.

Wu Yu, however, spoiled the scene, turned his head and asked, "Husband, what happened to you and Mr. Wen?"

"That's it." Zhou Buqi perfunctory.

"Are you...together?" Wu Yu's pretty face, which was drunk after drinking, became more and more red.

Zhou Buqi understood what she meant, and shook his head slightly: "Not yet, but we have agreed. The 29th of this month is her 25th birthday, and that day...um."

Wu Yu bit her lip tightly and stopped talking.

Zhou Buqi gently stroked her hair, "Unhappy?"

"No."

"You can hang oil bottles on your mouth."

"Where is it?"

Wu Yu pursed her lips and let out a coquettish sound.

Zhou Buqi sighed: "I know, this is quite unfair to you. But isn't life like this, who can get everything right? God is fair, when you get everything in a certain aspect that others can hardly have In the end, you are destined to lose something in other ways. Well, this is called the law of conservation of fate, taught in philosophy class."

Wu Yu chuckled and raised his head to look at him jokingly, "Honey, isn't the law you're talking about also called the law of conservation of energy? Just like the law of inertia is also called Newton's first law."

Zhou Buqi was shocked, "How do you know? I plan to apply for the Nobel Prize!"

"Ha ha."

Wu Yu laughed cheerfully, and then the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she threatened softly: "Husband, you have Teacher Wen, so don't stop loving me. If you dare not stop loving me, I will... At once……"

"So what?"

"I'll just be with Sister Lin and ignore you!"

"you dare?"

Zhou Buqi glared, hugged her domineeringly in his arms, and said unreasonably: "You only have the right to use it, but I have the right to own it, understand?"

"What's the meaning?"

Wu Yu tilted her head, a little dazed and dazed.

Zhou Buqi snorted: "Be honest, stand on these teeth and kiss!"

"What is fierce?"

Wu Yu pouted, walked over and stood on the curb, raised her white chin slightly, and closed her eyes.

Zhou Buqi was secretly startled.

This girl actually threatened herself with Shi Jinglin.

Don't be bent by that old witch, right?

The signs are not right.
