We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

#492 - Time is not waiting for me

"Oh, right. Besides Macau, are there any other regions or countries interested in our cellular mobile telecommunications system technology now?" Su Cheng thought for a moment and asked.

"Boss, besides Macau, which has clearly supported us in helping them cover their mobile signal, there are a few cities and regions that have expressed interest, namely Singapore, London, Manila, and Taiwan.

Singapore, Manila, and Taiwan, their local telecommunications departments called Mr. Wei Li to inquire, while London, the local mayor, through the Governor of Hong Kong, Sir Murray MacLehose, inquired about the possibility of the cellular mobile communication system covering London."

Langdon Moore gave a result that surprised and delighted Su Cheng.

Hong Kong became the first city in the world to commercialize mobile phones. As the governor, Murray MacLehose has been very pleased recently. When making phone calls with political friends, he praised how convenient this mobile phone is.

It is precisely because of this that London has begun to study the possibility of cooperating with Hutchison Telecom. The greatest possibility is that they hope their state-owned enterprises and Hutchison Telecom will split the equity 55, and establish a London mobile communication company.

This is a good start. Since they are interested, then there is a high probability.

For cellular mobile telecommunications systems, it is certainly impossible for Hutchison Telecom to be solely funded in other countries, after all, this involves communications supervision.

However, Su Cheng felt that there was no problem in cooperating with the local government. First, the investment does not need to be so large, and secondly, the current main focus is on selling equipment to make money quickly. The profit of a mobile phone is enough, which is enough for them to earn.

As for the long-term communication monthly rent, the development of the future world is changing rapidly. The first-generation cellular mobile communication system will soon no longer be a high-difficulty technology. By then, if you still want to rely on telecommunications companies to monopolize rent collection, it is impossible. The communications departments of many countries will build their own telecommunications networks.

Therefore, selling more equipment is the key!

"Are there any cities in the United States and Japan interested in cooperating with us?" Su Cheng asked.

"No, Japan and the United States have very good technical reserves in the field of communication. They cannot let us intervene in these matters, and local companies will definitely build them. However, in the future, after they have built the network, we can sell equipment to these countries.

The cellular mobile telecommunications system we are using now uses analog signals for communication, and the frequency bands are mainly concentrated between 800MHz and 900MHz. I have investigated that the research direction in the United States is not much different from ours, so in the future, after they build their own mobile network, our YunSheng S1 mobile phone can also be used."

Su Cheng nodded, understanding. Especially in the United States, they have almost completed the research on these technologies, and it is impossible for Hutchison Telecom to build the mobile network.

"By the way, boss, I learned through industry channels that research institutions in Japan and the United States are currently trying to bypass our patented technology, attempting to create their own cellular mobile signals. Only when it is impossible will they consider cooperating with us." Langdon Moore remembered something and said to Su Cheng.

"Don't worry about them, they shouldn't be able to research it in a short time. When the time comes, they will be the ones who are anxious. If it involves using our technology without purchasing our patent usage rights, file a lawsuit directly!" Su Cheng said indifferently.

According to the historical trend of another world, even Motorola did not officially release commercially available mobile phones until more than 3 years later. By then, they should have understood their cellular mobile communication system.

In other words, under normal circumstances, they will have to study for several more years.

If they want to take shortcuts, they can only copy Hutchison Telecom's technology, or purchase patent usage rights from Hutchison Telecom.

If it is plagiarism, then naturally there is no need to be polite, file a lawsuit if necessary, anyway, Su Cheng has enough time to spend.

Moreover, if it is plagiarism, it will also have a great impact on the reputation of those companies, and they probably will not easily take this path.

"Okay, boss." Langdon Moore nodded.

"Although the sales volume in Hong Kong is limited, after expanding overseas markets in the future, the sales volume will definitely increase again. Therefore, only two production lines are not enough. We must be prepared to increase production, at least the production lines must be prepared, so as not to greatly increase sales and we cannot get the goods." Su Cheng continued.

The market in Macau is not big, and it would be good to sell ten thousand or several thousand mobile phones, but the markets in London, Singapore, Manila, etc. are big.

Not to mention all successfully developed into Hutchison Telecom's market, as long as there is one of them, it can allow Hutchison Telecom to sell a lot more equipment.

Like London, Manila, Taiwan, etc., the population is more than Hong Kong.

There are more wealthy people in London than in Hong Kong. If you take the London market, at least 100,000 more YunSheng S1 mobile phones will be sold.

After all, there is only one choice for YunSheng S1 mobile phones now, which is equivalent to a monopoly.

However, the premise of these is that the factory on Hutchison Telecom's side must have such production capacity.

Otherwise, how can we meet the supply of other cities if we cannot even meet the supply of one city in Hong Kong now!

"Boss, Mr. Wei Li and I have already discussed this matter. Currently, we plan to open another factory in Kwun Tong. The customization cost of the production line is not very expensive, so we plan to prepare first. Mr. Wei Li and I will contact the communications departments in various places during this period to see where we can enter the market." Langdon Moore said.

Su Cheng nodded and said approvingly: "We cannot sit and wait for guests, we must also take the initiative appropriately. I estimate that in the future, it will not take long before our monopoly position will be broken one by one by professional research institutes in the United States, Japan, and other places. Therefore, while they have not yet figured it out, and we are still in a leading position, we must devour more markets. How much of the market we can take is how much we earn!"

"Yes, boss, time waits for no one. The research institutes in Western countries have also begun to feel the urgency. Coupled with our technical reference, they may shorten their research time, which will be detrimental to us. Hutchison Telecom has finally seized such a good opportunity, and I hope to take this opportunity to develop Hutchison Telecom into a world-class enterprise." Langdon Moore was also a little worried.

Although he is only the head of a subsidiary, Langdon Moore also has ambitions.

If he performs well, he will definitely be able to enter the senior management of Hutchison Whampoa Group in the future. If Wei Li steps down from the position of president in the future, he may be able to take this position.

Therefore, this is also a very good opportunity for him to perform.
