Chapter 656 Lophone
"As of June 31, a total of 1.35 million mobile phones of various types were completed in the first half of the year, and 45% of the annual plan has been completed. At present, all indicators are being promoted normally according to the plan..."
Bai Ningyuan walked in the corridor of Letong, and was always by his side, reporting on the situation in the first half of the year to him, naturally, Ji Zhengzhen, the general manager of Letong.
"How is the sales volume now? Which export part is there?"
Hearing Ji Zhengzhen's words, Bai Ningyuan asked Ji Zhengzhen.
"In the first half of the year, the total sales reached 1.27 million units, including 1.1 million local sales and 170,000 units exported. At present, we have established sales channels. In addition to South Asia and West Asia, there are also some countries in Russia and Africa. In addition, the Brazilian market is also actively developing. By the end of June, it has achieved a profit of about 400 million yuan. However, on the one hand, we have launched three new production lines, and in addition, we have built several supporting warehouses and workshops. After deducting these, there are still nearly 300 million yuan in profits. The current inventory is around 200,000 units!" Ji Zhengzhen remembers these data very clearly. When Bai Ningyuan asked, he could almost answer it with his mouth.
After entering 2006, the counterfeit machine market became even more crazy and popular. Many people have seen this market and have entered it in one after another. It is better in the north, especially in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Pengcheng areas. There are small workshops producing counterfeit machine everywhere. The competition is very fierce, and the profits have also dropped significantly.
However, relying on the good cooperative relationship between Letong and Lianfake allows them to purchase chip motherboards at the lowest cost price on the one hand. On the other hand, when Lianfake's products are extremely in short supply, Lianfake's supply has never stopped. In addition, Letong has always gained reputation with quality, so whether it is sales or profits, Letong's data is still pretty good.
However, Bai Ningyuan could see that the current popularity has hidden dangers of decline. At most, there will be three years to come, and the counterfeit machines will completely end. It is okay for those small workshops that just want to make a fortune. Some small companies without their own core technology will go bankrupt in large numbers.
It is precisely because of this that Bai Ningyuan won the Kyuzhuo, which is to find a path for sustainable development for Letong. At the same time, since last year, he has been continuously investing heavily to increase research and development efforts in various technologies.
"As for the production line, it's enough to reach this scale. With the current production capacity and full production capacity, it can almost double the current one, right? That's enough!" Bai Ningyuan said to Ji Zhengzhen, "All the savings will be invested in technical research and development!"
"But, the current market..." Ji Zhengzhen couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he heard Bai Ningyuan's words. With the current popularity of counterfeit machines, every time he produced one more, he was simply picking up money.
"The so-called prosperity will lead to decline. The current mobile phone market is the same. It seems to be popular, but in fact it is vulnerable. Without core technology, it can be easily replaced. The next one is the era of lophones!" Bai Ningyuan waved his hand and said with a smile.
Although Ji Zhengzhen was a little skeptical about Bai Ningyuan, after all, Bai Ningyuan was the boss. Even if he was a little unwilling, he could only do it according to Bai Ningyuan's requirements.
As we chatted all the way, we came to the testing laboratory.
The test laboratory was just set up this year, with only a few million investments. The facilities are still very new. The testers inside are currently carrying three prototypes to conduct hot and cold shock tests.
"This is the first batch of OEM machines delivered to us by Lianfake. A total of 50 were made, 20 of which were used for various tests!" Standing outside the door, Ji Zhengzhen said to Bai Ningyuan, and at the same time opened the drawer, took out a metal password box, and after entering the password to open it, the things inside were exposed. They were exquisitely crafted mobile phones.
These phones have three colors, namely gold, white and black.
He took out a light golden one and handed it to Bai Ningyuan's hand.
After buying it, a smooth touch arises naturally.
Bai Ningyuan looked at the phone in his hand and the first feeling was that it was thin. The thickness of this phone was only 9.8mm, which was about 1/3 more than the other phones on the market. Because the shell was made of metal, it had a unique sense of heaviness. Even so, it was still lighter than other phones on the market. There was a huge piece of glass on the front panel. In addition to a 3.5-inch screen, it was a round groove that just accommodated the size of a thumb. There was also a square breathing lamp in the center of the groove. The entire back, behind the metal shell, was also equipped with a thin layer of glass, making it look full of science fiction.
If someone who is reborn like Bai Ningyuan will definitely scream "iphone4s" in surprise when he sees this phone. Yes, the lophone follows the design of later iPhone4s, but the bite-cut apple logo on the back shell is replaced with a striking Lo.
Press the key to turn on, the screen is lit up, and on the pure white screen there is a line of black lophone words. After about 10 seconds of waiting, it officially entered the desktop.
This phone is equipped with the official version of the Lophone 1.0 version, and the interface is somewhat similar to those of the iOS in later generations, allowing Bai Ningyuan to finally find a sense of the aura of the future generations. Whether it is phone, address book, information, and various LO International application software that have been re-written, it is both concise and beautiful.
Bai Ningyuan kept playing with it. Although the multi-touch technology is not yet mature, the system has been optimized through the efforts of engineers, making the entire operation very fast and smooth. A rebirth like Bai Ningyuan who has used various mature electronic products may be able to experience the little delay, but for people of this era, it can definitely be called a shock!
Even Ji Zhengzhen was still full of doubts about this product when he came into contact with this plan. In his opinion, is such a product really a mobile phone? Can it be really manufactured? Until a few days ago, Lianfake delivered the first batch of OEM products in accordance with Letong's technical requirements. When Ji Zhengzhen picked up one of the mobile phones, he admitted that he was really shocked.
But after a few moments of playing with it, he felt like he couldn't put down this electronic product. Compared with it, the products that are being produced in Letong that are constantly bringing them profits are simply garbage...
