Shinichiro Takahira, Global Vice President and Head of Asia-Pacific Region of Sony Ericsson, has been very happy these two days.

Because the T618 model they released last quarter has been selling well in the Asia-Pacific region.

In just three months, it sold an astonishing result of more than 4.5 million units, directly reversing Sony Ericsson's losses in mobile phones and achieving profitability for the first time.

According to this progress, by the end of the year, T618 will definitely become the mobile phone sales champion in 2004!

Thinking about the beautiful scene back at the Tokyo headquarters, Gao Ping smiled from ear to ear.

He excitedly opened the small refrigerator in the study, poured a glass of red wine, and drank it in one gulp while watching the Chinese workers hurrying to the canteen downstairs of the company.

The cool feeling penetrates the heart and spleen, so comfortable!

China is really a good place. There are so many cheap workers who help us make money day and night. If it weren’t for the fact that there are so few entertainment activities here, staying here might be a very good choice.

Speaking of which, it is indeed an unexpected surprise that the mobile phone business has turned a profit this time.

However, even if these millions of mobile phones are all rotten in the warehouse, their foundation will not be shaken.

After all, Sony has been in business for decades and has a great business. It is impossible for Sony to collapse just because of a mobile phone business joint venture with a Swedish company.

But this time, not only did the funds come back smoothly, but we also took the opportunity to collect most of the research and development expenses, let the Chinese people help us produce mobile phones, and then sell the products to them, making a lot of their money. This feeling is really great!

He is already considering whether to apply to the local government to allocate a larger piece of land to them to expand the scale of the factory.

[In view of the general environment, the other party must not refuse for the sake of the employment rate of workers.

Gao Ping wore comfortable cotton slippers, walked to the sofa in the study and sat down, turned the button, turned on the desk lamp, found a disc of light music he liked, inserted it into the company's self-produced deck recorder, and pressed the play button.

Soft music gradually spread throughout the room.

While he was intoxicated with the enjoyment of music, a Chinese employee knocked on the door.

Gao Ping cursed angrily: "Baga! Didn't you hear that I was enjoying the music?!"

The clerk outside said in a low voice: "Mr. Takahira, this is a call from Mr. Moritani Takizo. From the phone, I heard that his tone was very anxious, and he asked you to answer the phone right away!"

Gao Ping was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

This Moritani Takizo is really fast. He knew it not long after the quarterly report was compiled. After a while, he will definitely say on the phone in an angry tone: "Ah! You Gaohei,

What are you doing again! Why haven’t you sent the sales data?”

Gao Ping smiled and turned off the tape recorder, stood up, opened the study door, and came to the living room.

He picked up the phone, smiled and said, "I'm Gao Ping!"

"Asshole! Why are you like this every time? Do you know what efficiency is?"

On the phone, President Takizo's familiar roar came out. Gaohing smiled and took the phone away. What a noisy guy...

"I'm really sorry this time! I see there are still some after-sales data that haven't been compiled yet, so I'm very sorry!" Gao Ping apologized without any sincerity, and the smile on his lips did not diminish at all.

"Oh! Why are you apologizing at this time! Turn on the TV and watch the local news in Guangdong where you are, something big happened!" A sound came from the phone, and President Takizo hung up the phone after saying that.

.

Gao Ping put down the phone in confusion. What did Moritani Takizo mean? Could it be that the Guangdong News also broadcast the booming sales of our Sony Ericsson mobile phones?

No way, this kind of Chinese TV station will report on the mobile phone brands of our island country?

He hurriedly came to the TV and turned it on.

No need to press the remote control many times. At twelve o'clock, it happens to be the noon news time, and many TV stations are broadcasting the news.

Without exception, most TV stations are using their own visual

Corner, playing the same news!

"....Infinity Company has officially launched their smartphone. The materials and core technologies used in it are all independently developed. This is an epoch-making initiative and a combination of high technology..."

Gao Ping touched his chin and stared at the reporter in the news quietly.

Infinite Company actually entered the mobile phone industry? It must be mobile phone companies like ZTE, Bird, and Lenovo. The Chinese people really have no technology in mobile phone manufacturing and basically rely on assembly and OEM.

Is there any technology at all?

Really good at bragging.

But when Gao Ping saw the clip of the press conference held by Infinity Company played on the TV station, the smile on his face immediately froze and he stayed on the spot.

Chen Jie, the general manager of Infinite Company, took out an ultra-thin, black mobile phone with a thickness of only about 5 mm, and pointed the screen towards the public.

He briefly introduced the characteristics of smartphones to everyone, and reviewed the entire research process of practical mobile phones.

Through this introduction, everyone knows that this phone uses touch screen technology, which not only completely abandons the physical button design, but also completely bypasses the Symbian system. It is a brand new mobile operating system!

Immediately afterwards, Chen Jie asked the staff to take out several mobile phones of other brands. Gao Ping recognized them at a glance. The first one was their Sony Ericsson T618.

Chen Jie compared these new mobile phones with the smart phones of Infinite Company.

No matter in terms of appearance, function, experience, social media, etc., the mobile phones they are proud of have been completely defeated.

Especially Chen Jie, who took a photo of a plant with his smartphone. When the photo was enlarged, the veins and patterns on it were clearly visible, which aroused the admiration of everyone in the audience.

It has a 3.5-inch screen and a built-in 8-megapixel camera on the back of the phone, which supports 1080p recording. When the phone can also shoot high-definition videos, who needs a dedicated handheld video recording device that is not so convenient?

Sony's business will face this impact head-on!

What comes next is the key to this press conference: Infinity Company announced that the technology of this smartphone has been very mature, the price is 2999 yuan, and it will be officially launched in the near future. All users are kindly requested to be patient.

wait!

Gao Ping felt as if his head had been hit with a heavy hammer at that time!

Is Infinite Company's technology research and development capabilities really that strong? As soon as they entered the mobile phone industry, they opened up a new track and can they achieve commercial mass production?

Gao Ping's concerns at this time were only based on technical considerations.

But by the next day, he completely understood why the Chinese people held such a press conference with great fanfare!
Chapter completed!
