Back to 1995

Chapter 980
San Jose, Alcatel Mobile Phone Industrial Park, is still brightly lit at this moment, and countless engineers and personnel from various departments are still busy.

Starting tonight, not only Alcatel mobile phones are busy, hundreds of Alcatel mobile phone industry chain manufacturers all over the world are busy working overtime.

Song Yang looked at Ertian who had been pacing back and forth after returning from the press conference at the San Jose Convention Center, and couldn't help shaking his head.

Even though he has become one of the most powerful figures in the technology industry, at this time, Ertian obviously can't hold back. There are indeed people who can do things like Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face.

But the sales of P4 are related to the revenue of Alcatel's mobile phone, and also related to whether Ertian can sit securely in the position of the head of Alcatel's mobile phone. When it comes to his own butt, how many people can be as stable as Mount Tai.

If the P4 mobile phone encounters Waterloo, of course it will not be said that Ertian will be swept out immediately, but the myth of the Alcatel mobile phone will be shattered. Bige is invisible and intangible, but it can be bought by countless people. Men and women in the world still eat this set!

"How's the P4 inventory?!"

Looking at Elthian who was not about to stop all night, Song Yang asked.

Ertian stopped, "By the time of global release this Saturday, the stock of P4 will have seen 700 million units!"

In the past few times, when the P1 and P2 were released, the phones were always not enough to sell. This time, when the P4 was stocked up, Ertian made Alcatel's mobile phone industry chain run at full capacity to produce the phones.

But at this time, Ertian felt a little uncertain. Unlike the previous three generations of flagship phones, the reputation of the P4 was really mixed, and no one could say whether it would make users madly buy it.

If the sales of P4 suffers from a decline, then the entire Alcatel mobile phone inventory is estimated to explode. The value of these millions of phones will exceed 40 billion US dollars.
Thinking of the inventory worth billions of dollars, Ertian has trouble sleeping and eating. I am afraid that until tomorrow, before the first day of pre-sale, Ertian will not be able to sleep.

Looking at Ertian's expression, Song Yang shook his head and said to him, "No one can never be surpassed. What Alcatel mobile phones need to do is to make changes as much as possible to keep users fresh!"

Now Ertian estimates that he has already bet all his thoughts on the smartphone in a few years.

But even if a smart phone is launched, it is as strong as the later generations of Apple, and it has experienced a seven-year itch. After several generations of phones, it has also been angered. But after a few years, maybe the two would hate each other, and Xiao Tiantian became Mrs. Niu...

People are like this, let alone mobile phones. After Alcatel mobile phones and smart phones are launched, there will be only a few generations of phones, and they will also face today's predicament. It's all inevitable.

Song Yang's words made Ertian fall into deep thought. He knew that he was a little worried about gains and losses, but for him, he could get to where he is today. In the past few decades, he never dared to think about it. He didn't even dare to do it in his dreams. dream!
But right now, the sales and revenue of Alcatel mobile phones have surpassed Motorola, Sony, Samsung, Panasonic, Ericsson and other established manufacturers. Standing in front of Alcatel mobile phones, there is only one Nokia left. As long as Nokia is defeated, Alcatel Mobile phones can cap the throne of the global mobile phone empire.

One step away from success, Alcatel mobile phone is just one step away from becoming the overlord of the new generation of mobile phones, and Ertian will also become a figure in the history of science and technology. At this point, Ertian will inevitably worry about gains and losses .

"Song, what do you mean?!" Ertian sat down and asked Song Yang. Ertian believed in Song Yang's eyes.

In the office building of Alcatel Mobile Phone Industrial Park, many people are walking around. The marketing department, public relations department and other departments are constantly busy making phone calls, communicating with distributors, distributors, agents, and online and offline sales channels. communicate.

"After the smartphone, the mobile phone industry may hardly make any new major changes in a short period of time. It is more about continuous improvement of mobile phone performance, more powerful chip processors, higher resolution screens, more powerful cameras, etc. !

What Alcatel mobile phone has to do is to enter other industries and develop new mobile phone supporting facilities, smart watches, smart bracelets, smart glasses, VR helmets, balance cars, etc., to attract users' attention! "

It sounds like these things are gimmicky, but in fact, they are all based on the functions of smartphones, and the technology can no longer be improved.

If the functions of mobile phones can continue to develop epoch-making functions, then these things can appear on the mobile phone, and there is no need to develop smart watches, bracelets, VR helmets and other things. Had to open up a new track.

Ertian opened his mouth. He could think of these questions, but he still didn't ask them in the end. These things have been developed by him and Alcatel for many years. I am afraid that they may not be able to develop all of them by the day he retires. .

As for the future, even Song Yang couldn't see clearly, let alone Ertian, he was very clear about how much he weighed.

In the future, whether Alcatel mobile phones will be surpassed by other manufacturers, Ertian can't control it. Anyway, he will not wait until Alcatel mobile phones go downhill before retiring. On the contrary, he will be the most brilliant in Alcatel mobile phones. At an incomparable moment, Alcatel was sent to the market, and then he retired, leaving his legend in the world.

Even the autobiography, Elthian is now starting to think about it, these are all learned from Welch, Ertian does not expect to be Welch, but he will never be a blame man!

Song Yang didn't wait until the pre-sale of the Alcatel P4 was released, so he and Irene, Greg, Marcus and others set off for New York, where they had to deal with an important matter and were invited to participate in a movie 's premiere.

"The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" is about to be released. As the major shareholder of the producer, Song Yang will naturally be present. After all, Song Yang talked about the script with the movie's leading actress at the Late Night Hotel. At this time, the movie is about to be released. Song Yang Yang did not participate, it is really unreasonable.

On the second day, the discussion about the P4 flagship phone became more and more intense. Many technology media criticized this as the most failed model in the history of Alcatel's mobile phone.

"Alcatel mobile phone is about to encounter Waterloo!"

"Arrogance is the original sin, and Alcatel made such a mistake!"

Looking at various media reports on Alcatel P4, the dealers and agents of Alcatel mobile phones are a little confused. They don’t know whether they should stock up so much this time. The next time a new machine is released, they all spend a lot of money to store up the goods, and then slowly ship the machine after the market is short-sold. The risk is a bit greater, but the profit is also extremely large!
Facing the P4 this time, these dealers and agents were a little confused. They didn’t know whether they should continue to stock up. They wanted to cut leeks, but they were afraid of smashing their hands, so they took over the disk for Alcatel’s mobile phone.

There are also scalpers who are also worried. Over the past few years, a whole set of scalpers have formed around Alcatel mobile phones, and even many gangs have joined them. They take advantage of this node every year to make a lot of money.

After all, compared with licking blood, the risk of this job is much lower, but the profit is not low at all. In P1, there were only some small scalpers doing this job, but looking at those small scalpers, relying on These things have been bought into new cars, and the gangs can't help it anymore when they spend money in nightclubs. The big gangs are still a little reserved and don't want to do these "unrefined" things, but the small gangs can't care about it.

In a slum community in New York, a few men with tattoos on their backs and men with vicious expressions sat inside. There are many big gangs in New York, but there are even more small gangs. Big gangs, let alone pay attention to what they get, and do what they get.

A few people are sitting together right now, and one of them is a tall and thick man with a long scar on his face. He can tell at a glance that he is not a character to be trifled with, "Boss Dwight, do you want to do this? If you get it, you can buy a total of 60 dollars!"

The man with the scar face said to the man who was sitting in the first place, who was also tall and thick, and the other staff were also gearing up.

The leading man was holding several thick newspapers to read at this time. In the past, he was unwilling to glance at these things, but now, he had to look at them. After all, it was related to the life and death of their small gang. Well, the hundreds of thousands of dollars is their entire family property, and they borrowed part of the dollars from other gangs to raise money. If they lose money, their small gang will basically be wiped out, and maybe Dwight himself will suffer.

But wealth and insurance are in demand, Dwight is not using the 60 dollars to buy other contraband, but P4 mobile phones. According to previous experience, as long as the phone is bought on the day it goes on sale, it can be paid back in a week at most , sell the machine with a price increase, and the price of a machine increases by tens of dollars, and at least it can earn about [-] to [-] dollars. If there are overseas channels, the profit can be doubled!
There are risks, but compared with other contraband, the risk of this thing is actually the smallest, and it will not attract the attention of the Federal Police.

Reading the reports in the newspaper, Dwight felt his head hurt. He didn't understand those evaluations. Looking at the people under him, Dwight gritted his teeth, "Damn it, you guys go out and find people, and get me all the P4s. Spot goods!"
