Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

After the launch of the new product, the domestic flagship store and the three-piece set of Honor received a lot of inquiries. Unfortunately, the smart watch will not go on sale until May, which affected the performance. However, the drone that appeared for the first time at the press conference was still popular. , sales doubled.

However, even if the new WP phone is sold at a reduced price, there is still no grand occasion of 5 million in a week. This has to be a bit disappointing, and Honor has begun to re-evaluate its cooperation with Microsoft.

Fortunately, Honor 5 and note are still selling well. The king of Android phones is respected as much as the IPhone, and more phones are sold. At most, the sales cycle is not as good as that of the IPhone.

Already have a relatively perfect team, mobile phone patents, all Netcom baseband chips, self-developed mobile phone CPU and operating system have plans, Qu Li doesn't want to take care of things, and the development of capacitive fingerprint unlocking chips can attract his attention .

Qu Li prefers the rear-mounted fingerprint recognition solution, but they all say that the hole on the back is ugly, and they want to put it on the front or side, which is not in line with their long-term product plan: full screen and lighter and thinner. Therefore, the rear and off-screen fingerprint recognition are given priority. As for the front-mounted device that reduces the screen-to-body ratio, let’s forget it. He also wants to replace physical buttons with linear motors, and replace fingerprint recognition with 3D visual perception solutions.

Afterwards, there was Honor’s shareholder meeting. There was nothing to say. The net profit of 12 billion US dollars is among the top in the world. Smartphones belong to the consumer electronics industry. There is a gap between Honor and Apple in all aspects, so the price-earnings ratio has always been 10 times. about.

With so much money earned, Honor has no plans to pay dividends for the time being. It will continue to increase the number of sales outlets and strengthen the competitiveness of tablets and laptops, which are the major contributors to sales. In other words, Honor's product line will expand from notebooks to all-in-ones.

At the same time, Sanjayja is very interested in the whole network intelligence proposed by Qu Li, and wants to try to promote this plan. Then voice speakers and smart screens may be the key. Correspondingly, it is necessary to add streaming music, radio, and audiobook resources to this product. Fortunately, in China, when Jumei acquires time, the competition for music copyright can begin. Abroad, we can only rely on Sanjay Jia to arrange people to work hard.

Qu Li is not optimistic about the smart home of the whole house. After all, this thing is too advanced, but who makes him full of imagination? With so many manufacturing companies in China, Honor can support a group of brothers to upgrade their brands and conquer the world in the international market. Don't be afraid of not having a partner.

So, at the shareholder meeting, Sanjay Jha explained the plan and took out samples. Honor's current product development capabilities far surpass Amazon's. As long as you can think of this idea, you can basically make it.

"We launched this product not to make money, but to occupy the core position of the smart home in the whole house, through which we can play music, set alarms, query information, control switches, etc..." Sanjay Jia said

This smart voice speaker still needs to be improved, but the core is Klun, the voice assistant, followed by the sound quality, so shareholders don't care about some details.

Then why not keep it secret and disclose it to shareholders in advance? Because the whole house intelligence cannot be kept secret, but needs to build momentum and needs a large number of partners to join. Honor has never thought of monopolizing the market, and it is the best choice to do the whole house smart home market together.

Amidst the exclamation, the general meeting of shareholders went smoothly. Besides, the content of the general meeting of shareholders involves commercial secrets, which cannot be disclosed at will. If it can be disclosed, it is either irrelevant or has ulterior motives, such as for publicity.

It’s a fake that Honor’s voice speaker doesn’t make money, but it’s not ruthless. If you don’t have money, who will promote the whole house smart? How can ordinary people experience Gates’ high-tech mansion life? Well, the above words are prepared for publicity. Anyway, Qu Li is not optimistic. How big is the risk if all home appliances are connected to the Internet? Might as well buy a home robot.

In short, Honor is on the right track and has started various attempts. Lei Jun is in charge of the traditional smartphone, tablet and computer business, Wang Tao is in charge of the drone balance car and camera, and who is responsible for the current smart wearable devices (watches, earphones) Are you in charge? As the top 5 leaders of the company, Sanjay Jia is responsible for the construction of the smart home and Made for Honor certification system, which is very good.

Among them, Pentax focuses on sports cameras and more professional mirrorless cameras and SLR cameras, focusing on high-end products, and serving drones and handheld photography equipment. The global camera market is shrinking. Last year’s sales fell significantly, and this year’s decline is even greater. Pentax cameras are still good. With the support of Honor, we can concentrate on improving technology, such as making mirrorless cameras.

No matter how hard the camera is, Wang Tao wants to apply drone products to a wider range of fields such as agriculture, electric power, surveying and mapping, and public security.

The combination of Pentax camera and Honor drone may become a classic configuration, and maybe the camera brand of Pentax will disappear eventually, who knows, Qu Li doesn’t care anyway.

I originally wanted to visit the Tianjing factory, but there is a conference in Pengcheng, and there will be a forum in Boao next, and Qu Li has to attend, so I can only wait. However, the Tianjing factory is still producing some Motorola smartphones. The overall renovation plan is still being formulated, but it is not in a hurry.

The meeting in Pengcheng was an IT leaders' summit, and I don't know why Ma Yun and Li Yanhong were so enthusiastic about it. Qu Li was not interested in it, and he doesn't brag much now. Glory is so awesome, no one in China can compare to it.

For example, Chrysanthemum Factory launched HiSilicon k3V1 in 2009, and launched k3v2 last year. It cannot be said to be bad, but it can only be said to be too weak. Qu Li was not afraid that Chrysanthemum Factory could surpass Glory in terms of technology, and Glory would be ahead of Chrysanthemum Factory regardless of its talent pool or financial advantage.

Then why did Mao worry about them? Because everyone's fighting power is different, the glory built by Qu Li is an excellent "multinational" company, and the "wolf" culture of the Chrysanthemum Factory has a stronger fighting power. "Wherever you go, no grass will grow", is it a lie?

When everyone's technology gap is too far, the Chrysanthemum Factory is naturally far inferior to Glory, but everyone is making progress. After Glory reaches 95 points, it is extremely difficult to achieve 100 points, but how difficult will Chrysanthemum Factory grow from 60 points to 90 points?

When Yu Dazui reached 80 points, he dared to shout "far ahead". When they reached 90 points, how many bubbles could they blow? At that time, the autonomous driving road test video of Chrysanthemum Factory and Beiqi Jihu came out, claiming to be "absolutely number one", but it continued to be "far ahead" two years later.

As a consumer, Qu Li is naturally upset about being cheated, but as an entrepreneur, he admires it more. Within the scope permitted by the law, under the same rules of the game, it is not amazing to use the least cost to make the biggest publicity ?

"Chrysanthemum mobile phone is definitely our strongest domestic competitor, and the global market is the same as Apple and Samsung." Qu Li and Lei Jun talked about this matter: "But I don't want to compete with Chrysanthemum Factory."

"Our purpose and purpose are to serve consumers. Our job is to combine mature technology with humanities and arts into a product that can be accepted and praised by most people. Although we have leading chips and operating systems, But we're not a technology company, we're a consumer products company..."

Apple later faced the strong impact of Samsung and Chrysanthemum Factory. Tim Cook said that maybe "second-tier companies respond to user needs, and first-tier companies create demand for users." Qu Lixin believed it was true and was willing to try.
