Volume 12, The Waves Stop the Flying Boat, Section 132, The Wind and Clouds
Lu Weimin's words gave Qi Zhendong a great stimulus. As a professional technician in electronic communications, making money is important to him, but that is the most critical stage when solving the problem of food and clothing. When food and clothing no longer become a problem,
, then career and self-success become his biggest pursuit.
When the European and American mobile phone giants Motorola and Edison swept the domestic mobile phone market with an unstoppable force, and when Korean and Japanese mobile phone giants such as Samsung, Sony, and Panasonic were eager to get their hands on it, there were only those in the industry who had a little bit of patriotic self-respect.
, the frustration and discomfort in my heart are all felt by myself, and Qi Zhendong is no exception.
For him, Fengyun Communications has already made tens of millions of dollars in the pager market, a pre-dinner spot in the communications market.
Lu Zhihua and Lu Weimin, as well as Xiao Jinfeng, both valued him and trusted him. Although they ended the pager business, they still gave him a considerable share in the new Fengyun Communications Co., Ltd., and also retained considerable shares for him in the Huamin Group.
Equity, that is to say, even if Fengyun Communications Co., Ltd. is unfortunately defeated in the future mobile phone war, it will not affect his comfortable life in the future, and he can even make a comeback. In this case, Qi Zhendong can certainly
I came to play this game with no distractions.
So when Lu Weimin asked him if he really wanted to make a difference in the mobile phone industry, he nodded without hesitation. After Lu Weimin expressed his support for his idea of becoming a national brand in this industry without hesitation, Qi Zhen
Dongjiang was determined to burn the boat, especially after Lu Zhihua and Lu Weimin both said that Huamin Group would not consider withdrawing its investment from Fengyun Communications, nor did they expect Fengyun Communications to bring much benefit to Huamin Group in the short term.
, they attach more importance to the fact that the domestic mobile phone industry can have an unshakable flag standing among many foreign brands and defend the status of national brands, which strengthens Qi Zhendong's confidence.
Qi Zhendong knows very well what kind of industry the mobile phone industry is. Technology, market, and capital are all indispensable. The market is the foundation, capital is the guarantee, and technology is the core.
Mobile phone companies without technology, especially core technology, are always at the mercy of others. They can be brilliant for a while, but they will eventually disappear. Without strong capital, neither the market nor technology can really do well. It cannot be said to be successful. Therefore, if you have strong capital, you can do well.
Backing is the absolute guarantee for the development of a mobile phone company; similarly, if a mobile phone cannot win the market, everything is empty talk. A mobile phone brand can only be considered a real success if it wins market recognition and continuously conquers the market.
Fengyun Communications is backed by the behemoth Huamin Group. Although Qi Zhendong is not very clear about how much capital reserves Huamin Group has, the financial circle is not convinced that Huamin Biotechnology connected the Yijing Marrow Replenishing Liquid brand when it was the most popular.
The formula belt sales channel was transferred to its largest competitor Sanzhu Group. At that time, it caused a tsunami-like shock in the country. Even if Qi Zhendong didn't know much about this industry, he could estimate the transaction through various channels.
What a huge cash income it has brought to Huamin Group.
After the transfer was completed, Sanzhu Group became the dominant player in the health care products market, and no other competitor could challenge it. It also made up for Sanzhu's shortcomings in the large and medium-sized cities, and in 1996 it became a health care company.
However, after entering 1997, the situation of the health care products market suddenly reversed. Especially in the second half of 1997, the health care products market began to decline. Sanzhu Group faced difficulties, and in 1998
The product allergy incident in 2016 plunged the Sanzhu Group into the abyss, and the entire health care product market showed signs of collapse.
The media that had previously criticized the Huamin Group for its "unfathomable" move of transferring the entire Lean Marrow Replenishing Solution to the Sanzhu Group, handing over the highly profitable market of health care products, also began to suddenly turn around. Thinking that the person at the helm of the Huamin Group
He has a strong sense of crisis, looks at problems from a far-sighted perspective, and is keenly aware of the risks of the health care products industry. He decisively retreats from the rapids and turns to the financial industry with better development prospects.
In particular, Huamin Group took advantage of the impact of the Southeast Asian financial crisis on the overall domestic economy and spent huge sums of money to purchase bank equity from the original shareholders of Minsheng Bank, becoming the largest shareholder of Minsheng Bank. It has become a giant in the financial industry.
The industry is particularly interested in Lu Zhihua, the helmsman of the Huamin Group who is hidden behind the scenes and seldom appears. However, Lu Zhihua rarely appears in the public media and rarely accepts interviews. Most of the time, it is two people from the Huamin Group.
The vice president handles daily affairs. Therefore, the outside world knows little about Lu Zhihua himself, but Qi Zhendong is well aware of Lu Zhihua's skills, especially the shrewd determination and courage shown by Lu Zhihua when acquiring several shares of Minsheng Bank.
Let Qi Zhendong be amazed.
Qi Zhendong believes that with Lu Zhihua and Huamin Group supporting the development of Fengyun Communications, Fengyun Communications' chances of success will be much higher.
But financial support is only one aspect. The key depends on Fengyun Communications' own operations. For now, Fengyun Communications is not short of funds. Technically, they all use chips and components from foreign companies, so there are no problems.
, the key is to open up the market in one fell swoop, so Qi Zhendong will spare no effort to recruit Lan Guofang.
After Lan Guofang visited Fengyun Communications and learned about the real situation and background of Fengyun Communications, he was finally moved by Qi Zhendong's sincerity in giving options to the company and joined Fengyun Communications in June.
After joining Fengyun Communications, Lan Guofang focused on building Fengyun Communications' sales channel system and launched marketing promotions. He took advantage of the upcoming release of the Hong Kong movie "The Storm" starring Aaron Kwok, Ekin Cheng, Christine Yang, and Shu Qi to invite Aaron Kwok
, Ekin Cheng and Shu Qi are the spokespersons for Fengyun's three mobile phones. It can be said that since the movie "The Storm" was released in July, Fengyun E618, E628 and Fengyun C588, three mobile phones that have not yet been officially launched, have suddenly become popular.
, under this situation, Fengyun Communications had to speed up the production progress, and finally rushed to officially launch these two mobile phones before October 1.
It’s just that the existing assembly production lines and parts manufacturing capabilities have severely restricted the entire production capacity of Fengyun Communications. Even if Fengyun Communications urgently purchased a considerable amount of additional components from other places, it was far from being able to quench the thirst. Only 10,000 mobile phones were shipped out of the factory in October.
It is expected that production capacity will not be truly relieved until February next year.
When Lu Weimin arrived at the conference hall of Fengyun Communications, Ji Zhende, deputy director of the Provincial Department of Information Industry, had already arrived first.
After Lu Weiminhe and Ji Zhende greeted each other for a while, the ceremony officially began. A Fengyun C588 mobile phone was pushed out by the etiquette lady on a trolley. The square box covered with red gauze looked particularly mysterious. Along with the melodious music, the red
The veil was lifted, and a beautiful mobile phone appeared in front of everyone.
There are not many Fengyun mobile phones on the market. 10,000 mobile phones are really insignificant in the national mobile phone market. Even in Songzhou, they are rarely seen. They are still models such as Motorola 328 Palm Zhongbao and Ericsson 788 and 768.
Mainly, this C588 actually borrows some design concepts from South Korea's Samsung. It is similar to a model of South Korea's Samsung, but the silver-white case and compact and rounded appearance are much better than that Samsung phone.
Regardless of the improvement in texture, it is often these details that better reflect the quality of a mobile phone. This is what Qi Zhendong pays special attention to. For this reason, Fengyun Communications paid 30% more than the original design for the design.
The ceremony was short but grand, and the following reception was also very lively. Fengyun mobile phone channel dealers from all over the country gathered here. As spokespersons, Aaron Kwok, Ekin Cheng and Shu Qi also attended the celebration, which also made these dealer representatives very excited.
To cheer up.
After all, "The Hero of the World" has just been released in China. Aaron Kwok's Bu Jingyun and Ekin Cheng's Nie Feng have aroused enthusiasm among young people, and Shu Qi's role as Chu Chu has also won the hearts of many boys and girls.
As a mobile phone channel dealer, being able to have close contact with these Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television stars can be regarded as a showpiece for these dealers when they return in the future.
The ceremony finally ended, and guests from the province such as Ji Zhende and distinguished guests such as Aaron Kwok, Ekin Cheng, Shu Qi, etc. were sent away. Lan Guofang was about to hold a symposium with dealers, but Lu Weimin did not leave.
Fengyun Communications is now not only Qi Zhendong's business, but also related to the interests of the local government represented by Yang Dajin and Cao Mengfei. Such an industry that may have a huge impact on Sui'an has affected the hearts of thousands of people from the beginning, but now it is just
The shipment of 10,000 mobile phones per month in October means that Sui'an's GDP will increase by 15 million. This does not include the output value brought by surrounding ancillary industries. If added up, it will not be less than 30 million.
.
In other words, even at the current monthly shipment rate of 10,000 mobile phones, Sui'an will be able to increase its GDP by 360 million yuan next year. Fengyun Communications's minimum target next year is 500,000 units. It is afraid of movement and components.
A considerable part may come from other places. For Sui'an, this may also exceed 1 billion in GDP. If Fengyun Communication's production capacity continues to expand as planned, it is possible to exceed 800,000 units, which means that Sui'an
Angola’s GDP is likely to achieve growth of 1.8 to 2 billion in the mobile phone manufacturing industry alone.
And how much was Sui'an's GDP in 1997? 1.51 billion! This year's GDP is expected to be around 1.8 billion. This means that if we are optimistic, Sui'an's GDP may double next year. This sounds simply unimaginable.
