Super Tycoon

After Duan Yongping left, Zhang Yang looked at the mobile phone sales statistics for the first half of the year, and saw Wan Yan's name on the second page.

Wanyan's mobile phone was launched in May, at the same time as the main models of giants such as Nokia, but sales were poor as a result. The performance of Bizhiduoxing was similar when the mobile phone was first launched, but at that time Zhiduoxing only had the domestic market and had not yet entered the overseas market.

Wan Yan directly made five language versions, Chinese, English, Russian, German and French, but the performance in each market was mediocre, even in the Chinese market, the sales were not very good.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yang went back to the computer, looked at his Penguin account, and called a video call to a person named Luzhou Warrior.

Soon the other party connected, and Jiang Wanmeng's head appeared on the screen, and he reached out to adjust the angle of the camera.

"Zhang Dong, why are you interested in calling me a video?"

"No big deal, just look at the mobile phone sales statistics in the second quarter to see if your mood has changed." Zhang Yang said deliberately.

"What changes can I make? This is what we have expected. In the first quarter of each year, last year's models are cleared, the price of mobile phones will drop, and sales will also increase."

"The second quarter is the main launch time for the new mobile phones of major manufacturers. Our Wanyan's mobile phone is also launched at this time, and we thought it would be suppressed."

Jiang Wanmeng is very appreciative of this. He also said at the beginning that it is worthwhile to lose money for three years, and it is enough to make a profit in the fifth year. He is not very demanding.

Now Wanyan's MP4 and other products are selling well, and there are profits to support their annual losses of several hundred million U.S. dollars, which will not have any impact on the company's operations.

Otherwise, after two years and no sales of MP4, what hardware products will Wanyan have left? They do have some patented technologies and can still make money, but the speed of patent improvement is not fast enough, far inferior to IBM's patented machines.

Wan Yan thought very clearly, either to make electronic products or household appliances, otherwise their brand awareness would be wasted.

The home appliance industry is very competitive. Among other things, Wan Yan has no confidence in surpassing Haier. Haier is a giant that can gain a foothold in North America. There are even many companies studying Haier's management system, which is enough to prove that this company has What a success.

What other home appliance companies such as Changhong and TCL, as well as companies such as Galanz and Gree, will it be Wanyan's turn to break out of the encirclement?

The mobile phone industry is different. In China, Zhiduoxing and Lianxiang are the brands. For other domestic brands, Wanyan can crush them by relying on their own brands.

As for foreign brands, aren't many of them also on the decline? Didn't giants like Ximenzi sell their mobile phone business?

In fact, when Ximenzi sold the mobile phone business, Wan Yan also inquired about the price, but the other party's asking price was too high, and there were still many negative assets to be packaged and sold, so Wan Yan didn't accept it.

BenQ has its own manufacturing plant, and there are many negative assets in Ximenzi. BenQ can be reorganized, but Wanyan can't.

For Bird, Wanyan also considered it, but Bird chose to merge with Lianxiang mobile phone, and she looked down on Wanyan. Why did Wanyan not have mobile phone-related technology at that time?

In the end, Jiang Wanmeng had no choice but to go to Zhang Yang, bought some technology licenses from Zhiduoxing, and then formed a team.

Acquired a small mobile phone manufacturer, developed its own mobile phone architecture, and introduced it to the market.

Sure enough, the market response was mediocre. Even if they did some advertisements, not many were willing to buy, and most of them were bought by Wan Yan's fans.

Wan Yan's goal this year is not high, Zhang Yang's words have no effect on him.

"Old Jiang, it's fine if you think so. I'm just worried that you're not feeling well. It looks pretty good now. At present, all the mobile phone brands in the world that sell well have adopted the tactics of machine sea. Suffer."

"Your brand only has one mobile phone. Let alone opening a specialty store, you can't even fill a counter, and even mix it with other brands. No one may notice it. How can it sell well?"

Moreover, advertising a product will also suffer a lot. Others only need to promote the brand, but you have to promote the product, and the sales channels are also limited.

Even before Zhang Yang's rebirth, in the era of smart phones, those top mobile phone manufacturers would launch more than one mobile phone every year, and even launch new models every quarter, so that consumers can always buy mobile phones with the latest technology.

"Zhang Dong, I know what you said. With Wanyan's current technology, it is not easy to design a mobile phone. How can we design more? Wanyan has no advantages. We plan to launch a music phone in the second half of the year." , the appearance design is similar to MP4, hoping to adapt to the trend of the market.”

"As for cheap feature phones, we won't do them. They won't make much money and consume a lot of energy. We plan to focus on smartphones, like Blackberry and HTC, even if they are less popular. But the status is high in the hearts of fans, and that's enough."

"Okay, you just have to think it through." Zhang Yang didn't try to persuade him much. Wan Yan's management had always been handed over to Jiang Wanmeng.

And Jiang Wanmeng is not stupid, he has already invested in two software companies, one is to develop Wanyan's unique smart multi-star system, and the other is to develop some special application software, such as listening to songs and videos, and they pay more attention to the entertainment function of mobile phones .

Jiang Wanmeng's survey found that many people who use smart phones are not for business and office work, but for the entertainment function on the smart phone.

Just like the current concept of camera phones, taking pictures is an entertainment function. Jiang Wanmeng starts with music, etc., and will strengthen more entertainment functions in the future. It runs counter to BlackBerry and HTC, and will definitely stand out.

"Zhang Dong, do you have no confidence in Wan Yan, or in me?" Jiang Wanmeng asked with some dissatisfaction.

"Hahaha, I have confidence in you, and I also have confidence in Wan Yan under your leadership. But I still remind you to pay attention to the younger team of the company. There are more and more young people buying mobile phones now."

This is a big advantage of Zhiduoxing. They rely on game products and have a very high reputation among young people.

"My new assistants are young people, undergraduates who have just graduated. There are also many young people under the age of 30 in the company. I will pay attention to changes in the age of the team."

Jiang Wanmeng has also noticed this situation a long time ago. He found that after the average age of the team in many companies increases, the innovation ability declines rapidly, even those who are old are already experts or something.

In fact, the team of experts also needs young people, such as undergraduates and graduate students led by experts, who are often the main force of scientific research.

Wan Yan believes that the mobile phone will not change. If other companies can succeed, so can they!
