The Strongest Life Reborn
Chapter 1310: Expensive luxury communication products
In 1985, Li Chaoren's Hutchison Telecom and Motorola launched a cellular mobile phone business in Xiangjiang.
At that time, they built a total of 28 radio towers to ensure the smooth flow of mobile phone signals.
Obviously, because the first generation of this mobile phone signal transmission and reception tower is not so mature, the function is not so powerful, so even in some downtown areas, when there are more people using mobile phones, there will be signals Of missing.
Those who were holding mobile phones and shouting "Hey Hey" loudly in an open place were not really pretending to be competing, but the signal was really bad.
So Yin Jun absorbed these experiences.
The radio transmission and reception signal technology he bought from Ericsson was immediately handed over to the domestic radio department to start improving and enhancing the signal.
Hua Guo is strong in radio, and this is why the future wireless network of Hua Guo will far surpass that of other countries.
If it hadn't been accumulated for so many years, how could the era of 4G network surpass that of foreign countries by so much and directly realize the dream of overtaking in a corner?
Do you think you can do so well with the development of two days a day?
After such a year of technical experimentation and application, when the transmission tower was officially delivered to the Kirin Group in November, the strength of the received and transmitted signals has increased by more than 5 times.
Even so, Yin Jun prepared 60 radio towers. Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories were all densely arranged. Even remote places like Lantau Island and Lamma Island were arranged.
Under such signal strength, the call effect of the Kirin mobile phone is naturally much stronger than the first version of the previous life.
This is not because Yin Jun is wasting, but he uses Xiangjiang as a base for experiments. The various data of the experiment here can be used in other places in the future.
Therefore, such experiments do not care about the loss of money.
With the continuous advertising, the construction and installation of radio transmission towers, as well as the establishment of various service departments of Xiangjiang Telephone, more and more people are interested in Kirin mobile phones.
It has been stated in the advertisement that it will be officially accepted for sale on January 1.
Then, after the Spring Festival in February, it will start to ship one after another.
This is not intentional appetite, but the entire installation and commissioning process takes time.
Including various sorting trainings at Xiangjiang Telephone is also a very complicated matter.
If Yin Jun was not in a hurry to grab the name of the first commercial mobile phone before Motorola, in fact, it will be released in February to be the best choice.
Even if the mobile phone is available after the Spring Festival, a group of rich people in Xiangjiang, or a group of people who yearn for a new life in advertising, have responded positively.
Within ten days, the number of scheduled mobile phones exceeded 8,000.
By January 1, this number had exceeded 15,000.
Don't think this number is too small.
The price of Motorola's first commercial mobile phone, 8000X, is $ 3,995, and one minute of a call is $ 1.
According to the current exchange rate, it is 28,000 Hong Kong dollars for a mobile phone and 7 Hong Kong dollars for one minute of talking.
Yin Jun is naturally impossible to be such a black heart. After all, Xiangjiang is a testing ground, and the production cost of mobile phones is not so much.
If various patent fees are not counted, the cost price of a Kirin mobile phone is about 800 Hong Kong dollars.
The reason why Motorola set such a high price is simply because they want to recover the cost as soon as possible-at this time, they have never thought that the mobile phone can make so much money for them.
Of course, apart from manufacturing costs, apart from patent fees, there are also high operating costs, such as labor, launch towers, etc., all of which have to take into account the selling price and service fees.
The fees charged by the three major operators in later generations in China are so high. In fact, most of them are paying for infrastructure.
Otherwise, there will be no signal in those remote third-tier and fourth-tier cities, those villages, and those around the mountains and rivers.
Why is the signal coverage of the United States and China far weaker than that of China?
Why does the signal suddenly weaken out of cities and densely populated areas?
Isn't it because their operators will not install a large number of signal base stations where they are not necessary?
They will not do things that are not of interest.
The three major operators in our country have this task and must do it.
From this point of view, it is also inevitable that the age of the nationwide network of China will surpass other countries and become the world ’s number one.
After taking all considerations into consideration, including summoning the senior executives of Xiangjiang Telephone, after discussing for ten times, Le Yiling finally made the final decision and set the right price.
A Kirin mobile phone is priced at 8888 Hong Kong dollars, and the basic monthly payment is 500 Hong Kong dollars. In addition, the call time is tentatively set at 1 Hong Kong dollar per minute.
Mobile phone prices are definitely profitable.
But the call cost, according to the current base of 15,000 users, as long as a call exceeds ten minutes in a row, then Xiangjiang Telephone Company loses money. The longer the call, the greater the loss.
This decision was made by Le Yiling.
She has also served as the chairman of Xiangjiang Telephone and Xiangjiang Electric Company.
In fact, as long as the top management knows, with this solution, only Kirin Communications will benefit.
Because they are responsible for the production of mobile phones, the price of 8888, even after removing the patent fees and the rest of the expenses, is already more than 500% of the profit.
Xiangjiang Telephone Company is responsible for the construction and maintenance costs of 60 radio transmission towers, as well as all operating costs.
Conversely, what did Xiangjiang Telephone Company get?
It's just a payment of 500 HKD per customer, and the long talk time will result in a loss.
Therefore, Xiangjiang Telephone Company suffered a great loss.
But they have no way, because this is the order given by the chairman, if anyone does not want to do it, then get out.
Don't doubt, the title of Sister Le's Queen of Music is not free.
Her tenderness is only used on Yin Jun and her family. To others, she is very tough.
And Le Yiling is not a random showdown.
At first glance, Xiangjiang Telephone Company is very at a loss, but who will implement new technologies and models, will not have a huge loss experience?
Quite simply, Coca-Cola's sales in the first year, but only 25 bottles!
Speaking of Xiangjiang Telephone Company itself, when they first introduced home phone, did they not experience many years of losses, did they only start to make profits after more than ten years?
If the mobile phone can develop well, the more people use it, the more money they will make.
According to the current price calculation, as long as more than 200,000 people are used, Xiangjiang Telephone Company can achieve breakeven.
If it exceeds 300,000 people, then they will definitely make money.
More than 500,000 people, this is a very profitable business.
To say that more than 1 million people can use mobile phones, Xiangjiang Telephone Company will surely become one of Xiangjiang's most profitable companies.
And Xiangjiang's mobile phone users will definitely exceed 1 million people, this is Yin Jun's speculation.
"If any of you feel that A Jun's foresight is inadequate, you can stand up and object." Queen Le said this at the time.
In fact, as long as everyone listens, Yin Jun predicts that the number of Xiangjiang mobile phone users will exceed 1 million, and he has agreed to take this risk.
Because Yin Jun has never failed.
Even this crisis of real estate plunge, Yin Jun has long said that it is just that people do not believe it.
Before Yin Jun failed, the people of Xiangjiang Telephone naturally believed in Yin Jun.
There is no way to believe it.
Although Xiangjiang Telephone Company is a listed company, its major shareholders have all the power.
Even if they go to trouble, it is up to the expansion of the general meeting of shareholders, you said those shareholders and shareholders believe in Yin Jun, or believe them?
Who does n’t know that Yin Jun has meat to eat?
In the past few years, the Jiulong Bus loaned billions of dollars, causing such a huge loss, but the investors just trusted Yin Jun and held the stock in their hands.
what's the result?
This time, there is not much stock that can survive the super big stock market crash ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~, but the stock of Jiulong Bus, surprisingly, has not fallen much, but has fallen by about 20%.
Among all the stocks with the smallest decline, Kowloon Bus can be ranked in the top ten!
The reason is not simple. Yin Jun is the largest shareholder of Kowloon Bus. Another important reason is that the bus lines decided by Yin Jun have now ended their losses and slowly entered a period of breakeven. .
Once all the residents are in control, the construction of houses, villages and commercial facilities on the surrounding roads will be completed. Certainly these buses will become very busy lines. Making money is justified.
With the encouragement of the Kowloon Bus, the senior executives of Xiangjiang Telephone also naturally felt that they could take a fight.
Anyway, they have also experimented with the benefits of mobile phones.
Although the call effect is not as clear as the landline, it is convenient and fast, and you can find the benefits of people at any time, which can offset everything.
Xiangjiang people are very time-sensitive in doing business.
Many businesses are rushing for time.
If they can save time, one step faster than others, there must be someone willing to buy a mobile phone to use.
Mobile phones are very expensive now, the basic monthly fee is also expensive, and the cost of calls is also expensive.
But if more people use it, these costs will come down.
By that time, many white-collar workers will be able to use it.
The next step is to expand to the entire work group ... how should the 500,000 user group also have.
Thinking of having such a bright future, the senior executives of Xiangjiang Telephone can only stick their teeth and look forward to seeing a better tomorrow.
They only hope that Yin Jun should not expect to be wrong, otherwise the whole Xiangjiang phone may go bankrupt.
With the current market value of Xiangjiang Telephone and its profitability, the loss of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars a year can not be maintained for several years!
