Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 491 Changes in the Market

Honor 5 is launched. As the world's first full Netcom mobile phone, it is still very attractive. Countries all over the world are queuing up to buy it. It sold 5 million units in a week, and it has once again become the focus of news.

Well, this sales volume is not astonishing. It will be really awesome when the iPhone 5 sells 5 million units in three days and 10 million units a week next year.

Released at the same time as Honor 5 is the second-generation Matebook, which is equipped with a 120G solid-state hard drive. Unlike the previous generation of products with a read and write speed of 250M/S, this generation of products has a read and write speed of over 500M/S, which can guarantee Windows 7 system The boot speed is maintained within 10s for a long time, unlike the first-generation matebook that didn't take long...

Magicbook and Matebook notebooks are not considered best-sellers, and have sold less than 5 million units since they were released, but they have made the combination of solid-state hard disk cabinets and mechanical hard disks a common configuration.

In addition to system chips and solid-state drives, Matebook’s multi-terminal synchronization function has been enhanced. With Honor’s account system, cloud disk service, and free security software, there is a customized version of 365 Security Guard without advertisements in China, and a free value-added model abroad. The international version of , the first year is free.

Besides, the security guard is not friendly to novice users, but it takes a little time to configure a security guard without advertisements.

Matebook has improved not only the configuration, but also the quality. There are many excellent engineers in the PC industry. As long as you are willing to spend money, it is easier to improve the quality. Only cost-effective computers are difficult to take care of. Honor's laptops use solid-state hard drives, which feature fast startup, long battery life, and stylish appearance. They can be used with Honor phones, tablets, and drones. The price is slightly lower than the MacBook's starting price of about US$1,000, and there is enough profit margin.

If Honor's tablet sales are slightly more than half of iPad sales, then notebook sales are less than one-third of MacBook sales. have no idea. Innovation in the PC market is too difficult. Apple not only has a brand advantage, but also has a differentiated operating system.

It is difficult for Honor laptops to be differentiated from those of HP, Dell, Mouxiang, and Samsung, so only Microsoft Honor’s products can be differentiated. Simultaneous recording of man-machine video...

That is to say, you can only use the Honor mobile phone or computer to control the drone, synchronize the data of the smart watch, etc. Honor is developing an operating system for this wearable smart device, which may be a real-time microkernel product to prepare for the car system.

In the foreseeable future, various products of Honor, from computers, mobile phones, drones to cars, will be organically combined, and Honor mobile phones and smart watches can be used to open the house instead of car keys.

Glory is a highly imaginative company that takes both technology and art into account. Qu Lifei went to Beijin to discuss the future with a group of artists. The rich and powerful Glory is willing to spend money to invite artists and fans to do some "useless" activities.

At this time, another not-so-bad news came. Nokia gave up the self-developed Symbian and Meego systems, and jointly released a new phone with Microsoft.

"How did they have anything to do with Microsoft?" Qu Li was very curious, he had obviously dismantled Microsoft's Trojan horse

"Nokia India CEO..."

"..." Indian CEOs are everywhere, Indians will not dominate the earth in another form, right? At that time, all the heads of state in Europe and the United States will become Indians...

"Microsoft sees that the sales of Honor Mate X mobile phones are not good..."

The monthly sales volume is less than 1 million units. This sales volume is really not good. How much does Mate P sell in a month? For example, in November, although the launch of Honor 5 suppressed other mobile phones, the sales volume of Honor this month must have exceeded 10 million units.

"How is the sales of Nokia Android phones?"

"They have released new phones every month recently, and the monthly sales should be about 2 million units. This year, they may exceed 10 million units."

"So much?" How much did you say last time?

"They also have an Android phone development department in the United States..."

Nokia Symbian has not been discontinued, and Meego has released a mobile phone. The situation this year is not optimistic, but why choose Microsoft?

"Oh, by the way, Samsung teamed up with Intel and the Linux Foundation to acquire meego"

"Samsung is preparing to rebel?"

"Maybe their sales didn't meet expectations?"

It is understandable that Qu Li is very careful to guard against Samsung, but there are a large number of orders for Samsung Display every year. The production capacity of retina screens is limited, and Apple and Honor account for the majority. It is normal to affect the sales of Samsung and LG mobile phones.

In this year in history, Apple sold about 93 million iPhones, and Samsung sold about 90 million. Now that the best screens are sold to Honor, Samsung may not even have 50 million.

"Samsung's high-priced Android smartphones are not as competitive as IPhone and Honor, mainly due to low-end and mid-range smartphones supporting sales."

"Their chips are obviously very powerful." Qu Li marveled. Apple's mobile phone chips originally used Samsung's chips, but now they need to use Samsung's patents, so they can't find TSMC as an OEM.

"Maybe their system optimization ability is not good, or maybe Honor is the well-known Android king."

Made, hearing this name, Qu Li felt that the hope of acquiring MOTO was slim.

Contact colleagues in the US market to understand the performance and market feedback of Nokia WindowsPhone system mobile phones.

"Very good, the experience is similar to Mate X..."

"The exterior design is very distinctive, and Nokia's industrial design capabilities are superb."

"Using a Zeiss lens, the imaging effect..."

Nokia WindowsPhone mobile phones seem to be quite good. Now it depends on the market performance. Qu Li is suddenly worried. If WindowsPhone breaks out and occupies a certain market share, what will happen in the future?

"Microsoft and Google both want Honor to acquire MOTO. The US side seems to be willing to let go, but we need to make certain concessions..."

"There are conditions, is it reasonable?"

"It may be that we give up using the Constellation chip and the KOS system..."

"It can't be done." Qu Li didn't hesitate. The Qualcomm chip didn't know if it was a bug or they left a back door. Even if the mobile phone user is not connected to the Internet, as long as there is a network nearby, they can bypass the system and send information to Qualcomm. Although the Android system is open source, it seems impossible to say that there are no "security holes".

"We can gradually reduce the number of mobile phones that sell the combination of Astral chips and KOS in the North American market..."

"Then I'll give it a try, Americans are not good at talking."

"We can't compromise on matters of principle. Without our own operating system, we will become mediocre." Qu Li doesn't know that Miguo is terrible, of course he knows, but there are some things, such as backbone, and the possibility of making a company great. He dare not give up.
