Silicon Valley

v2 Chapter 236: Let CDMA enter China

Henry designed the phone, and the rest is the engineer's business!

Silicon Valley Electronics Group will develop two mobile phones, one supports CDMA network and the other supports G** network!

In the previous life, China first used the G** network, and the first G** mobile phone introduced was Ericsson GH337.

Now Henry wants to change this history! China wants to use the CDMA network, and it has introduced a mobile phone developed by Silicon Valley Electronics Group! !

Therefore, Henry intends to let Qualcomm enter the Chinese mainland and open up the market as soon as possible! Although China is poor now, few people can afford a mobile phone. However, China's development is changing with each passing day, and the economy is soaring. In a few years, there are a lot of people who can afford mobile phones! !

At present, the most popular communication equipment in China is a pager, that is, a BB machine or a BP machine! Before 1995, the market for BB phones in China was huge, but after 1995, mobile phones had begun to significantly reduce prices, and the paging business was gradually defeated under the strong offensive of mobile phones. In addition, with the improvement of people's living standards, there are more people who can afford mobile phones, and the market for BB machines has suddenly shrunk! The decline began in 1996, and the number of users decreased in vain, and the number of paging stations also dropped sharply!

However, it is only the beginning of 1992, and if someone wears a BB machine around their waist, it will be a lot of face, and it can be completely forced in China! At that time, many people bought a BB machine, and then the jacket must be tied into the pants. If it is not tied into the pants, the BB machine will be blocked by the jacket. How to pretend that? Therefore, the jacket must be pierced into the pants, so that the BB machine can be exposed for others to see! At this time, if someone is holding a Motorola "Big Brother" mobile phone in hand, it will be amazing. In people's impression, he must be a big boss, and when he answers the phone, his speech must be very loud. big! This is in the eyes of people in later generations. It was purely a fool yelling there, but at the time, people were envious of him!

Motorola was the first to enter the Chinese mobile phone market, and it once monopolized the Chinese mobile phone market with absolute advantages. At that time. A mobile phone is tens of thousands of dollars, but China's ten-thousand yuan households are very rare!

Therefore, speaking with "Big Brother", bullish! !

However, the speech is loud. There is no way! Because the early Motorola mobile phones belonged to the analog network, and the analog network signal was not good, the call sound was not good, and there were many shortcomings. Therefore, when using the Motorola mobile phone to speak, it is not loud and the other party can't hear it at all!

It's just that when G** networks are popular all over the world, Motorola has always been obsessed with analog networks, and was finally caught up by Nokia and Ericsson. Formed a powerful situation of the three giants! And Motorola’s reluctance to make changes is actually the same as Edison’s disability!

Anderson has invested heavily in direct current, so he rejects the alternating current advocated by Nicolas; Motorola has invested heavily in analog networks and has achieved remarkable results, so naturally he is reluctant to make changes easily! This is like tearing down a newly built building with a huge investment and then rebuilding it. If there is no extraordinary courage, this would never be done! !

Edison did not, nor did Motorola!

Time will crush all things backwards. Direct current is replaced by alternating current, and the analog network is replaced by G** network! The G** network will also be replaced by the CDMA network!

In the past life, Qualcomm developed slowly. The promotion of the CDMA standard is unfavorable. At this stage, the G** network is almost in a monopoly! Nowadays, under the influence of Henry, CDMA network has developed rapidly, and it has competed with the G** network to become the two major communication network standards at the moment! !

China's market is huge. It is impossible for Henry to let the G** network be in the Nuggets!

Therefore, Henry quickly called Dr. Owen Jacobs, the founder and CEO of Qualcomm, and asked him to send people to actively explore the Chinese market!

"China is a large country with a population of more than one billion people. The future market is huge. Qualcomm should deploy early! China established a mobile communications group company in 1987, and can cooperate with them to help them build a CDMA network!!!"

"Okay, I will get people to contact China Mobile Communications Group as soon as possible!" Dr. Owen Jacobs responded on the phone, "However, Mr. Williams, Qualcomm has also conducted investigations on China. Currently, The Chinese are very poor, and not many people can’t afford mobile phones. We have spent so much time and effort to help them build a CDMA network. I am afraid it will be difficult to make a profit in a short period of time!!"

"Haha, Dr. Owen Jacobs, you may be right to say that Chinese people are very poor now. However, it won’t be long before the rich in China will appear like a blowout! Don’t underestimate this country, maybe a dozen Years later, most of Qualcomm’s interests will be obtained from this country! In addition, I dare to predict that the price of mobile phones will become cheaper and become the most common thing over time! Maybe, ten Every child in the coming year will have one for everyone!!"

When Dr. Irving Jacobs heard this, he felt so crazy. How could it be possible that all children in their ten-year-olds have a mobile phone? !

"Mr. Williams, the price reduction of the mobile phone is certain, but I think it will still be an expensive product!"

Henry heard the words, smiled, not with Dr. Owen Jacobs, time will prove everything!

"Okay, Dr. Owen Jacobs, we will not discuss this issue for the time being, you will understand it later! Now, what you need to do is send people to China to open up the market. Silicon Valley Electronics Group will develop CDMA mobile phones here. , By then, it can be released in China!!!"

"Oh, yes, Mr. Williams!"

After hanging up the phone, Henry pondered for a while, thinking whether to get the Chinese text messages out, forget it, or wait for the upgrade in the future, and then add them. Then, he can be used as a killer...

Henry knew very well how attractive Chinese text messages are to Chinese people!

A phone call is 5 cents a minute, and a text message is only 1 cent. I would rather send a text message! !

In China, services that use SMS for monthly subscription are everywhere, and the number of SMS messages is far greater than the number of people making calls. In order to save money, you can avoid making calls and try not to make calls. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will save money to the end...

The first mobile phone developed by Silicon Valley Electronics Group will be released at the end of 1992. The phone will use the Symbian system, Qualcomm's CDMA communication chip, and the rest of the hardware will be produced by Silicon Valley Electronics Group itself. In fact, the current mobile phones are nothing too complicated. Henry has dug so many technical talents to develop a mobile phone, and it will not be practical for a year!

The BB machine is easier to make. Since BB machines will be popular in China for a long time, do you also let people develop a BB machine?

The Chinese now have no money to buy mobile phones, they can buy BB machines. When they have money to buy mobile phones, BB machines can be sold to South America or Africa, and they can also make a lot of money. The Silicon Valley Electronics Group can also have more profitable products.

In the future, Henry is not going to let Silicon Valley Electronics Group establish a specialty store, mainly because the product is too single! But now, the more products that Silicon Valley Electronics Group makes, it's time to open specialty stores and establish a strong offline sales channel! !

Ipod music players, mobile phones, BB machines, cameras, etc. can be sold in the specialty store, as well as some supporting equipment!
