After hanging up the phone, Yu Dong rolled up his sleeves and prepared to wash the dishes, but saw Cheng Yanqiu already washing the dishes.
Yu Dong ran to the kitchen and feigned anger, "Look at you, how can you deprive me of my right to wash dishes?"
Cheng Yanqiu rolled his eyes at Yu Dong and said, "In our family, the Olympic bid ambassador has special privileges and does not have to wash the dishes."
Yu Dong laughed and said, "If you dare to be kind, just for this reason, your job as ambassador for the Olympic bid will not be in vain."
In Yu Dong's family, cooking is easy, and both of them are quite willing to cook, but when it comes time to wash the dishes, they push each other back and forth.
Seeing that Yu Dong was proud, Cheng Yanqiu added, "Only before the end of the Olympic bid."
…
On September 1st, Yu Dong was busy with the start of school, while Jimmy ended his trip to Yanjing and returned to Jinling. His next stop was BenQ, the newly established company of BenQ Dentsu and XomoChina Electronics
Mobile Communications Technology Co., Ltd.
The new company built a five-story building in the newly built Xincheng High-tech Industrial Park next to the Deep Space Park. It was also the first batch of companies to move into this industrial park.
This new industrial park is very popular because it is close to the Deep Space Park and the nearby plans for the next few years are very good. If you switch to other companies, you will definitely have to queue up if you want to enter.
However, BenQ Dentsu and Xohua Electronics are already well-known throughout the country, and because of their relationship with Deep Space, the Jinling government also handled special matters and quickly approved office locations for them.
Although the company has moved in, the facilities are not yet complete. When Jimmy arrived, except for the fifth floor, the other four floors were empty, and more than half of the fifth floor was empty.
In the next period of time, some people from Wuxi and Baodao will be transferred to Jinling, but most positions still need to be re-recruited.
The Jinling government arranged office locations for BenQ Mobile so quickly because it hoped that BenQ Mobile could help Jinling solve some employment problems, or attract talents from other places to settle in Jinling.
When Jimmy arrived, Li Kunyao had just finished a meeting with the administrative department. The meeting was originally going to last a while, but after hearing that Jimmy was coming, Li Kunyao condensed the content of the meeting and ended the meeting quickly.
When he returned to the office and saw Jimmy drinking tea leisurely, Li Kunyao said with a smile, "Mr. Ji, I didn't expect you to come so early. Is the matter at Yanjing over?"
Jimmy put down the tea cup and said with a smile, "It can't be said to be over, it can only be said to have come to an end. You have been quite busy recently, right? The new company has just been established, and there are a lot of things. The group cannot do without you, both sides.
It’s not easy to run either.”
"Actually, the group's side is fine. After all, it's on the right track. Everyone can just move forward along the track. BenQ Mobile is a little more troublesome. Now let alone the main business, a lot of chores haven't been done yet. On our side
It’s all okay, but the main reason is that the integration of XoC Electronics’ mobile phone business is more troublesome.”
Jimmy nodded, "Trouble is trouble, but we must not take it lightly. I know very well that Xohua Electronics' production line is not important to us, and you certainly don't pay much attention to it, but I want to tell you, we must take the production line seriously.
Pay attention to it and don't think about weight loss. In the short term, weight loss is beneficial to the development of the company, but it will greatly affect the company's reputation. The production line from Xohua China must be taken over, and if you want to optimize it, you must do it step by step.
If you continue to look aggressively, you may end up cutting yourself."
The so-called optimization actually means streamlining employees.
When XomoC Electronics and BenQ Dentsu are combined, the most important thing is production lines, and there may even be overcapacity. In this case, some business leaders will consider optimizing production lines and reducing some employees.
And Jimmy is worried that this kind of thing will happen. Laying off employees will naturally save money for the company, but the social impact will be extraordinary.
Li Kunyao nodded and said, "I know this, and we are trying our best to make arrangements. We will definitely fire production employees unless absolutely necessary."
Hearing Li Kunyao's reply, Jimmy narrowed his eyes and said, "There is no last resort. If we don't fire employees, the company will never collapse. That's it. I don't want to read in the newspaper that employees were fired just after the establishment of a new company."
News from employees. I have read the business plan you submitted before, and it is very well written and well thought out."
Seeing Jimmy talking about business planning, Li Kunyao cheered up.
Regarding the business plan for entering the mobile phone market, Li Kunyao had already submitted it to Jimmy, but Jimmy had never given feedback before.
Li Kunyao really wanted to know what Jimmy thought of the plan. After contacting Jimmy for a long time, he believed in Jimmy's vision.
Jimmy first affirmed, and then said, "It's just that your plan lacks something impressive. If it is other businesses, such a plan is definitely enough. But we want to enter
The mobile phone market is a market that iterates very quickly. If we only focus on steady development, we will definitely be eliminated by other manufacturers. But if we want to make progress, if we go in the wrong direction, we are likely to fall into catastrophe."
Li Kunyao was confused by these words. Is it wrong to seek stability in co-writing, nor is it wrong to be aggressive?
Jimmy continued, "Have you ever thought about how to make BenQ mobile phones instantly remembered as soon as they appear on the market?"
Li Kunyao thought for a while and said, "Beautiful appearance and powerful functions."
Jimmy shook his head, "You have fallen into a misunderstanding. What does a beautiful appearance mean? Does a straight board look better, a flip cover looks better, or a slider looks better? Does the keyboard have to be laid straight or at an angle? Is the topcoat silver or black? This year, Motorola has
There are two new models, one is the L2000, which focuses on tri-band. It is a candy bar and comes in three colors, black, gray and blue. Its slender model is loved by many customers. The other one, the LD188, is also a candy bar with a wide screen.
One thing, the edges should be squarer, the buttons are strip-shaped, and they are only available in black and silver. More people like this model. And the appearance of these two models is designed by our deep space. Through these two examples,
One thing we will discover is that there are many possibilities for looking good."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After talking about the appearance, Jimmy added, "Let's talk about functions, let's still talk about the two examples I gave. One of these two mobile phones focuses on tri-band, and the communication function is very powerful.
The communication function is inferior, but the body is lighter and the battery life is longer. Tell me, which of these two mobile phones has better functions?"
Li Kunyao pondered, "Whether the function is powerful or not depends on the needs of consumers, who have requirements for communication quality. Especially those who make a lot of long distance calls will definitely choose the former. If the communication requirements are not very high, they should choose the latter. Put it this way.
Come on, we still need to understand the needs of consumers."
Jimmy waved his hand, "If you are in an already stable industry and understand the needs of consumers, you can certainly be invincible. But the problem is that the mobile phone industry is changing with each passing day, and even the consumers themselves don't know their needs.
What is it? Now there is a consumer who says that his requirements for a mobile phone are to be able to make calls and have a longer battery life. But if a mobile phone comes out tomorrow and can watch TV, do you think he will still insist on his needs?"
Li Kunyao understood what Jimmy meant, but the problem was that they couldn't make that kind of cross-generational product.
Seeing that Li Kunyao was silent, Jimmy added, "Of course we can't make a mobile phone that can watch TV, but can we make a mobile phone that can play music?"
"A mobile phone that plays music?" Li Kunyao frowned, "This should be possible, but I heard that the mobile phones that Samsung and Siemens are about to release can play music. We will follow them and release the same type of mobile phones. On the one hand, there are
The suspicion of following the trend probably won’t impress anyone.”
"It doesn't matter. If Samsung and Siemens can do it, we can do it too, but they are both mobile phones that can play music. We still have to make them unique. Moreover, I have seen the promotions of Samsung and Siemens, and the promotion of music is not the same.
Not too much, and we don’t pay much attention to music. But we are different. We can emphasize the concept of ‘music mobile phones’ from the beginning. As long as this concept is hyped up, our mobile phones can be sold. In addition, we are better than
Samsung and Siemens have one more advantage, that is, we have more music copyrights on hand. As far as I know, Siemens’ mobile phone will have a 32MB memory card. Just put songs into the memory card to play, but Siemens
The card is empty and people need to download music themselves."
At this point, Yu Dong laughed, "How many people do you think will be able to download music by themselves after getting this card? Not everyone is very familiar with these things, and not everyone has been online.
"
The situation Jimmy mentioned is particularly obvious in China. In the past two years, a kind of store has appeared on the Chinese market. This kind of store has no other business but helps customers download things, because most people don’t know how to download things themselves.
No chance to download either.
Of course Li Kunyao is aware of this situation, and he is even quite optimistic about the development of this kind of store in the next few years.
"Mr. Ji, I understand when you say this. We can put the music in the memory card when we give it away, saving users the trouble of downloading music themselves."
At this point, Li Kunyao suddenly reacted, "Mr. Ji, you came to me to sell music, right? Put the music into the memory card, Deep Space Music will definitely not refuse to charge us money."
Jimmy laughed, "Old Li, you react really quickly. Yes, the plan I mentioned also has the advantage of helping with the distribution of deep space music."
Li Kunyao said with a smile, "Mr. Ji, logically speaking, Deep Space Music shouldn't charge us money. After all, when we put the music into the memory card, we are also promoting Deep Space Music's music. We don't want to promote it.
There is no licensing fee for Deep Space Music, wouldn’t everyone be happy?”
Jimmy shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, "The palms and backs of my hands are all flesh. It doesn't matter to me who of you charges whom. Regarding the fees, you go talk to those music companies. If you can convince them to give you money, then it's yours."
Awesome, I have no objection at all, and I’m giving you a thumbs up.”
"It's too troublesome for us to negotiate it ourselves. Why don't the Deep Space Group directly package and authorize it for us?"
Li Kunyao is right. The copyright under Deep Space Group is quite complicated. Various copyrights are scattered among several companies. The music copyrights of Jay Chou, Sun Yanzi, and Shakira are not in the same company.
"Don't be afraid of trouble. You still have a lot of time anyway. You can't decide to make a music phone today. You can make the phone tomorrow, right? You still need to plan carefully and figure out how to do it."
Li Kunyao nodded and asked, "What did Mr. Yu say about this?"
Regarding the mobile phone matter, Li Kunyao has always wanted to ask Yu Dong's opinion, but he has never found the opportunity.
Recently, Li Kunyao has been here in Jinling, and the company is not far from the Deep Space Park. But the key is that during this time, Yu Dong was busy at school and had never been to the Deep Space Park, so Li Kunyao wanted to meet Yu Dong.
It's hard, let alone having an in-depth conversation with him about his cell phone.
The reason why Li Kunyao wanted to listen to Yu Dong's opinion had a lot to do with "Second World".
"Second World" involves a lot of things related to future mobile phones, and even later in the movie, Yu Dong also led the team to design several mobile phones for Motorola. Over the years, Motorola's updates and iterations are all related to Yu Dong and his previous designs.
.
Jimmy smiled and said, "Yu Dong proposed the idea of ​​music phones. What he meant was that we can use the concept of music phones to help the brand quickly gain fame, and then use music phones to complete the transition."
"Transition?" Li Kunyao was stunned for a moment, "Does it mean that Mr. Yu is not very optimistic about music phones?"
"Whether it's good or not depends on the times. Yu Dong believes that there should be no problem in making a music phone for a few years."
When he heard that it could only be done for a few years, Li Kunyao was a little surprised and a little disappointed. Disappointed because this was not a long-term strategy, but surprised because their boss, Yu, had already thought of the market in a few years.
"So what does Mr. Yu think we should do in a few years?"
Jimmy laughed, "You think Yu Dong is a god, how can you predict so far now? Let's not think too much, just make a good music phone. Except for the memory card to store genuine music, we ourselves are the best
We will work hard on the system and develop the function of managing music files in mobile phones. If we can develop this function earlier, we will be a big step ahead in the road of music mobile phones."
Li Kunyao didn't know much about the technology of mobile phones, so he didn't know whether it would be difficult to implement the function Jimmy mentioned. However, he still nodded firmly, "Don't worry, Mr. Ji, we will definitely solve this problem as soon as possible, no matter what
In this way, as long as there is direction, everything will be easy to handle."
