Chapter 3101 Dominate the mobile phone market
War! Lin Feng is clear about this. Jobs and he agreed that both parties would jointly launch each other's new mobile phones at the same time. But alliance, what does this mean? What does Jobs want to do?
"Haha, Lin, I believe that you and I are the same kind of people, both of whom want to lead an industry. The mobile phone market has become rotten. Today's mobile phone market is all old wine in new bottles. The so-called replacement is just
It's just a change of soup without changing the medicine. The mobile phone market needs new forces, new power! And these are you and me!" Steve Jobs said loudly.
Lin Feng nodded. He was not surprised at all by what Jobs said. You must know that in 'history', the rise of 'Apple' caused companies such as Nokia and Motorola to quickly fall from the altar and even be on the verge of death. Especially Nokia, which once became the global
The most popular mobile phone manufacturer, a mobile phone manufacturer that has led mobile phone sales for 11 consecutive years. From 1996 to the present, Nokia has been the mobile phone sales champion every year. Its Nokia 1100 has sold more than 200 million units worldwide. It is the most popular mobile phone in history.
The best-selling single phone.
But all of this has turned into dust because of the rise of Apple. Of course, now that he is also involved, Lin Feng believes that companies such as Nokia will be even worse. But why does Jobs want an alliance?
"Lin, who do you think our opponent is?" Jobs asked.
Ellison listened, thought for a moment, and blurted out, "Nokia!"
Although this field has nothing to do with Ellison, he should not have intervened in it. However, Lin Feng and Jobs are both friends of Ellison, and the three of them are sitting here. It is not a serious negotiation, just a party, so Ellis
Sen doesn't have any taboos.
Jobs didn't look at Ellison.
Instead, he stared at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng smiled slightly.
"Nokia is very powerful, but unfortunately when we rise, it will become history. The past strength has made Nokia a stiff tiger now. Nokia has nothing but self-reliance and arrogance. We can easily destroy it!
Nokia is by no means our opponent." Lin Feng said loudly.
Nokia is not a rival? Who is that? Ellison was stunned.
There was a look of approval in Jobs's eyes. Nokia, in Jobs's eyes, has never been a rival. This mobile phone empire is now satisfied with its past glory and thinks that's all for mobile phones. Nokia will continue to be so strong, thinking that several mobile phones will be launched every year.
Just make a different style, slightly upgrade the screen, and upgrade the performance. This idea is simply stupid. How can such a company become Steve Jobs's opponent?
Jobs had a rival in mind, but he wanted to see if Lin Feng had the same views as him.
"Three stars!" Lin Feng slowly spit out two words.
A fanatical light flashed in Jobs's eyes. Yes, it's Samsung! This is the largest consortium in South Korea. Currently, the industry does not attach much importance to this consortium, but Jobs deeply felt the terrifying spirit of Samsung. Samsung and Apple
'They are all a company that is determined to make progress. Although Samsung has become a dominant company in South Korea and has a pivotal position. It can be said that even if Samsung continues to be self-proclaimed, it can still earn countless money in South Korea. But
Samsung has never been satisfied. Over the years, Samsung has been expanding, rapidly but not crazy, and rationally but not recklessly.
This company will become his fierce rival in the future.
Samsung? Ellison was stunned. Is this company as scary as Jobs said?
Ellison frowned and thought for a while, then opened the laptop he carried with him and retrieved information online.
Samsung Group, founded in 1938 by Lee Byung-cheol, initially exported dried fish, vegetables and fruits from the Korean Peninsula. In the 1950s, it gradually expanded into sugar, pharmaceutical, textile and other manufacturing industries, and was established as a family-owned enterprise. In 1969
Established Samsung Electronics. In the 1980s, Samsung Electronics mainly sold refrigerators. In 1986, Li Byung-cheol established Samsung Economic Research Institute. Its subsidiaries include: Samsung Electronics, Samsung SDI, Samsung SDS, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Samsung Corning, Samsung Networks, and Samsung Fire.
Samsung Securities, Samsung C&T, Samsung Heavy Industries, Samsung Engineering, Samsung Aviation and Samsung Life, etc. are managed by members of the Lee family. Among them, Samsung Electronics was selected as one of the world's top 500 companies by Fortune magazine.
Seeing this information, Ellison took a deep breath. What else is this company not involved in?
"Allison,
There is a proverb in Korea that says Koreans have to experience three things in their lives: birth, death and three stars." Lin Feng explained.
Birth, death and Samsung! After Ellison thought about it, the hairs all over his body stood up. This is really a terrible company. Lin Feng understands how terrible Samsung is. In the future, 'Apple' will take over
However, Samsung caught up from behind and surpassed Apple to become the brand with the largest share of mobile phones in the world. It also dethroned Nokia and became the mobile phone brand with the largest annual sales. But how could Steve Jobs realize this? In Lin Feng’s memory, Steve Jobs
It seems that he has never cared about Samsung. Jobs's philosophy is to develop the most advanced and innovative products and use creativity to defeat his opponents.
Why would Steve Jobs care so much about Samsung today?
"Lin, since you also know that Samsung is a formidable opponent, we have a consensus. Let's join forces to dominate the mobile phone market and drive away Nokia and Samsung!" Jobs shook his fist in the air.
Lin Feng had no objection to this proposal, but he just didn't understand why Jobs wanted to cooperate with him. He never cooperated. At that moment, Lin Feng didn't hide it and asked directly.
"Two reasons! I don't want to tell you one of the reasons, but I can tell you the second reason." Jobs poured a cup of coffee for Lin Feng. "Because of your appearance, the mobile phone market will change too much. I don't want it to change too much."
The two of us fought to the death, letting others take advantage of the situation. Samsung is a very potential and terrible company, and I don’t want to end up being a wedding dress for others.”
Lin Feng nodded. He agreed with this explanation. In my memory, at that time, Apple was the most popular brand in the world, but then Samsung caught up with it. Now, if I can compete with Steve Jobs, Samsung's chances will be even greater.
It's too big. Therefore, there is a reason between myself and Steve Jobs to work together to deal with the other disruptors, so as to avoid the clams in the river from fighting and the fishermen will benefit.
"Then how to cooperate?" Lin Feng thought for a while and asked.
"I think our new mobile phones will all be smart phones, so we will make the smart phones bigger and stronger and eliminate traditional mobile phones as quickly as possible. You have 'Pangu' and I also have 'ios'. This can first
Eliminate manufacturers such as Nokia and Motorola that are not enterprising in terms of operating systems. We must make consumers accustomed to using smartphones and make smartphones their only choice. At that time, what other options do other mobile phone manufacturers have? Independent research and development
?Then we will be able to defeat them completely in the software system." Jobs said proudly.
Lin Feng thought for a while, and this is really the case. You know, in this 'future', Samsung can surpass 'Apple' and become the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer, relying on the 'Android system', and now 'Android' has been
With Steve Jobs in the bag, there is no 'Android' in the outside world, and it will be difficult for Samsung to surpass it. And Steve Jobs demanded that traditional mobile phones be eliminated as quickly as possible, which means that these manufacturers will not be given time to respond. These mobile phone manufacturers lack operating systems.
, I am afraid that they will be in trouble in a short time. At that time, Lin Feng and Jobs will work together to establish the absolute position of "Phantom Technology" and "Apple" in the mobile phone market.
What will be the future sales of mobile phones? They will become the fastest growing electronic products in the world and the fastest updated products. Annual sales will exceed 1 billion units. And the profits of mobile phones will also be extremely high. Once Lin Feng and Steve Jobs rule
If you enter this market, the profits will be extremely considerable.
Ellison made a rough estimate on the side. If the annual sales of mobile phones in the future exceed 1 billion units, and Lin Feng and Jobs only need to occupy 70% of the market share, then the average annual profit will be about 60 billion US dollars. This is a
It is an extremely astonishing figure. It far exceeds the profit amount of any company under their names today. Moreover, there are various peripherals for mobile phones that can be developed to make money. This is another astonishing profit.
With a growl, Ellison couldn't help but swallow his saliva. The profit was so amazing that he couldn't help but feel a little envious. Of course, Ellison believed that his database would also be so profitable in the future.
"But there is another company that we must pay attention to." Lin Feng said in a deep voice.
"Microsoft!" This time, three people blurted out at the same time.
Yes, it's 'Microsoft'. Microsoft is another company in the industry that owns an operating system. If major companies in the mobile phone industry are stuck without a suitable smart operating system, then 'Microsoft' will definitely not sit back and wait, and will definitely attack.
Although 'Microsoft' system is not necessarily suitable for mobile devices, it is a threat.
"I think you need to contain Microsoft." Jobs looked at Lin Feng.
"It's okay to contain them, but what's the benefit to me? You know, dealing with Microsoft will cost me a lot of energy. If you take advantage of the mobile phone market, then I won't suffer a loss." Lin Feng said.
on the table.
Jobs rolled his eyes directly. You wander around all day long, how much energy do you need to expend. You just need to formulate a policy and let your subordinates implement it. You are not like me who still need to develop systems and participate in various
In research and development, you are just an idler.
"This is not for me, but for us, and even more for you. The one who will gain the most from defeating Microsoft is you!" Jobs groaned.
Lin Feng shrugged ruthlessly.
"It's no good, I won't do it! In short, you have to give me some benefits!" Lin Feng said in a rogue manner.
Jobs was speechless. After all, you are also a very important person in this world. It would be unethical to act like a rogue here. You must be kind!
"Otherwise, all you need to do is say a word, and I will promise to do my best to contain Microsoft and prevent it from focusing on the mobile phone market." Lin Feng rolled his eyes and smiled.
Jobs suddenly felt a cold wind blowing through him.
