"Old Xu, Old Duan, you said you have good news for me?" Feng Yu picked up his teacup and blew on it.
Duan Yongping looked at Xu Lihua. "Old Xu, you should tell me about this."
Xu Lihua nodded. His team had made the most contributions, and he was the one who started this project. It was General Manager Feng's idea.
"General Manager Feng, the mobile phone is developed successfully!"
Feng Yu put down his teacup and swallowed his tea. "Developed successfully?! That's great. Is it the flip phone I mentioned? "
"This is the prototype. Take a look." Xu Lihua opened a box and took out a phone wrapped in a yellow silk cloth. He passed it to Feng Yu as if he was presenting a treasure.
This is the first mobile phone developed by Aiwa Electronics, and it is very valuable! If it weren't for Feng Yu, Xu Lihua would not take it out.
Feng Yu switched on the phone and looked at it. The screen is small, and it is still grey. The resolution is not high. The buttons are not big, and the phone is only about 10 cm long and 5 cm wide. The thickness is more than 3 cm.
But this is a flip phone, and it's understandable that it is thicker.
Feng Yu looked at the functions and frowned. There are only phone calls and SMS functions. At least there is a game function.
Feng Yu is pissed when he heard the ringtone. This phone does not even have a 40-string guitar.
Xu Lihua and Duan Yongping were excited when they saw Feng Yu's expression. The excitement on their faces disappeared and turned to worry.
Manager Feng is not satisfied with this mobile phone, but the rest of them felt it was good.
"Let me suggest a few areas for improvement. First, when the phone is not open, the phone number cannot be seen. But now, there is a caller ID service. Do you all know? Although it is expensive, more people will be willing to use this service in the future. When the phone is opened, the call will be connected. What if I receive a call that I do not want to answer? Therefore, on the other side of the cover, there was a small screen. One inch was enough to display the phone number. Then, there should be a hang up button next to it. If you don't want to answer the call, you can just hang up. "
Xu Lihua immediately took out a pen to record. Every time General Manager Feng raised a suggestion, it would always be priceless advice.
"Secondly, the cover is so big, but the screen is too small. Didn't I say I can cooperate with Wind & Rain Electronics on the screen? They are doing well in the research of LCD screens. Also, why is this a gray screen? Other countries have color screens. We should have color screens too. Even if it's just a blue or orange screen now, it's fine. "
"Thirdly, the phone's sound quality is too bad. There's only the most traditional ringtone. First, the sound quality of the ringtone must be improved. Secondly, there must be more choices of ringtones. We must have a ringtone that we have researched ourselves. When others hear this ringtone, they will know that it is our mobile phone. Forget it, I'll do it later. " Feng Yu was thinking about which music he should use for Aiwa mobile phone's classic ringtone.
"Fourthly, there are too few functions in this phone. Simply put, this phone is not only for receiving calls and SMS. You can load some games into it, such as Tetris, Snake, and so on. It's simple and fun, and it's easier to load on the phone. "
Xu Lihua was shocked. "General Manager Feng, this phone is not cheap. It's not like those handheld game consoles. If you use this phone's buttons to play games, it will break. Who is willing to use it? "
"That's why you all must increase the battery life of the buttons. You all must ensure that the buttons are durable. If you all are not willing to use it, what's the point of using it? "Feng Yu rolled his eyes.
In Feng Yu's previous life, Nokia was the best in this aspect. It was said that it could smash walnuts. Unfortunately, later generations of mobile phones did not focus on this aspect. This was because no one was willing to smash such an expensive phone. Instead, all sorts of protective covers became popular. Furthermore, it doesn't matter if the phone was broken from playing games. If you are willing to use it, you will be willing to buy a new one.
"Lastly, you all must inform Lenovo Kingsoft about the phone's system functions. Tell them to increase the functions. Never mind. I will speak to them about this later. You all must make this phone thinner and sturdier. The exterior design must be more beautiful, and the color of the casing must be the same as our pagers. There must be more options. Oh, how long is the battery life? "
"The battery is custom-made for Wind and rain batteries. The standby time and talking time is 50% longer than the phones in the market. But the cost is higher."
"It's fine if the cost is higher. This is also one of our selling points. The people who are buying this phone are the so-called successful people. They will not want their phones to run out of battery at critical times. Also, when we introduce this phone, we must give out an original battery. This way, the customers can change the battery when the phone runs out of battery. "
"You all are giving out batteries? Our cost will increase by a lot."
"Why don't you add the cost of the battery into the selling price of the phone? This is equivalent to us selling an extra battery! "Feng Yu stared at Xu Lihua. These researchers are so stupid! How can they be so stupid?!
Look at Duan Yongping. He is also a researcher, and he is smart! Aiwa cordless phones and Wind and rain cordless phones are selling very well. Just the advertisement alone is enough to let people remember this product.
Products must be developed from the user's perspective and focus on the user's experience. What's the use of a good product? Also, products are to be sold for money and not to be displayed here. You all must maximize the profits!
Xu Lihua suddenly realized. That's right. Feng Yu is giving out the phone as a gift, but he can charge more. General Manager Feng is really good at doing business. Why didn't I think of this?
"What is the cost of this phone now?" Feng Yu asked as he played with the heavy phone in his hands.
"If we can mass produce it, the cost can be controlled to less than 2,000 RMB." Xu Lihua replied proudly.
A phone in the market now costs at least 6,000 RMB, and the better ones cost 8,000 to 9,000 RMB. There are even some that cost 10,000 to 20,000 RMB. Hmmm … not all these are imported products. There is also a domestic brand called Panda!
Panda had started producing mobile phones in 1993 and is the first domestic manufacturer in Hua Xia to have access to the internet. But their technologies are not good, and their product designs are not good.
When Feng Yu said he wants to develop mobile phones, Xu Lihua said he wants to overtake Panda mobile phones within 3 years. This almost angered Feng Yu. What's there to overtake Panda mobile phones? Even if he wants to overtake Motorola, he should overtake Feng Yu.
If he does not set a high target, he will not be motivated. In Feng Yu's previous life, Nokia can overtake Motorola. Why can't Aiwa Electronics do the same?
If Feng Yu still cannot achieve his target, then Xu Lihua and the rest will disappoint Feng Yu!
"This will be enough. We will be able to make profits and still be competitive. Our next step will be to mass produce mobile phones and give up the pager business within 3 years. In the future, our mobile phones will be famous all over the world! "
