China Mobile?
How could it be them?
After knowing the truth, the mobile phone manufacturers found it hard to accept.
Of course, in reality, other than the large supermarket chains, only a telecommunications operator like China Mobile had the ability to do so. Moreover, they had their own sales channels.
However, the major mobile phone manufacturers that had worked with China Mobile for many years could not understand.
Why would Mobile help Huanyu Technologies?
They were not the only ones who could not understand. Lenovo was the most confused.
"Boss Yang, aren't you familiar with Mobile?"
"This …"
"What's going on?"
Xu Lihua, the president of Ningbo Bird, said to Yang Yuanqing.
"I'll call Wang Jianzhou."
Gritting his teeth, Yang Yuanqing was burning with anger.
Yang Yuanqing did not want to argue with Mobile about the contract.
He did not expect that as soon as the contract was over, Mobile would try to screw him over again.
"Boss Wang, what do you mean?"
"Boss Yang, don't get agitated."
"What do you mean don't get agitated? How can I not get agitated? Did you help Huanyu Technologies?"
"This is not helping, this is just a normal business cooperation."
"Normal business cooperation, Boss Wang, don't tell me you don't know about our recent actions."
If he did not hold it in, Yang Yuanqing would have argued with Wang Jianzhou.
Even so, even if Yang Yuanqing called, it was useless.
Although Yang Yuanqing was extremely angry, Mobile's own business was their own business.
Even if Mobile and Huanyu Technologies worked together, there was nothing he could do.
No matter what Yang Yuanqing said, Wang Jianzhou was confused.
They talked for dozens of minutes, but it was useless.
"Bastard."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Yuanqing was so angry that he was speechless.
"Boss Yang, what did Mobile say?"
"Nothing much, I think we were screwed."
"We've been tricked … Did Mobile and Huanyu Technologies team up to trick us?"
"It's possible."
Although Yang Yuanqing didn't think so, he wouldn't speak up for Wei Dong at this moment.
Moreover, this incident clearly had a lot to do with the movement.
If Mobile had not placed so many orders for Huanyu Technologies, Huanyu Mobile would have died.
"F * ck, Mobile is trying to toy with us."
"We often work with them in business."
"Boss Yang, I think we should ask Elder Liu to step in."
The head of Lenovo, Liu Chuanzhi, was an important figure.
Once such a person appeared, even if he didn't need to do anything, many things could be done.
This time, Mobile was actually collaborating with Huanyu Technologies. The group of cell phone manufacturers knew that it would be difficult to deal with Huanyu Technologies just by relying on market tactics.
The best way to deal with them was to deal with them from top to bottom.
As long as the higher-ups gave the order, even if Mobile wanted to do this business, they wouldn't be able to do it.
However, despite saying so, Yang Yuanqing was extremely hesitant.
If Liu Chuanzhi stepped in, he could certainly solve this problem.
However, if he asked the head to step in whenever there was a problem, what would he do in the future?
In the end, Yang Yuanqing couldn't resist the urging of so many people. He took out his phone.
Unfortunately …
Although Yang Yuanqing dialed the number, the other party directly hung up on Yang Yuanqing.
"Boss Yang, what's the matter, call?"
"I did."
"He didn't pick up?"
"No."
Yang Yuanqing's back was covered in cold sweat. He said with a trembling voice, "President Liu rejected the call."
…
Huanyu Technologies.
"Boss Chen, how did you know that Mobile would place such a big order for us?"
Wu Kai said excitedly as he held the one-million-cell phone order contract with Mobile.
This was the biggest order that Huanyu Technologies had ever signed.
Of course, that wasn't all.
With this big order, Huanyu's cell phone would be perfectly launched.
"This is nothing. We have to see the power of our dual SIM and standby. If Mobile is smart, they will definitely grab the big order first. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be snatched up by Unicom and Telecom. "
"Huh?"
Wu Kai was puzzled.
However, soon, Chen Yu received a call.
It was Li Guohua from Unicom who called Chen Yu.
"Boss Chen, hello, I'm Li Guohua."
"Boss Lee, I know. I saved your number."
"That's great. This is urgent, so I'll get straight to the point. I heard that your company has signed a one-million-cell phone order with Mobile. "
"Yes, we have."
"I heard that your cell phone has a dual SIM and standby function."
"There is indeed such a function. How did Boss Lee know about it?"
"You don't need to know how I know. How about this, we'll also ask Unicom for an order."
"Of course, it's not a problem to give Unicom an order. However, we have signed an exclusive supply contract with Mobile. Mobile doesn't allow us to supply Unicom or Telecom. "
"It's fine. I'll take care of this. You just need to supply."
"Then there's no problem."
Chen Yu nodded and agreed.
However, he knew that as long as Unicom said so, he didn't need to deal with the rest.
Even though Chen Yu had signed an exclusive supply contract with Mobile.
However, signing the contract was one thing. Whether other companies would break it was another.
Although Unicom's size was not as big as Mobile's, they were all on the same level.
For a business like this that could affect the balance of the industry, as long as the higher-ups wanted to deal with it, it would definitely be done in minutes.
Almost immediately after hanging up on Chen Yu, Unicom's person-in-charge, Li Guohua, called Wang Jianzhou.
"Old Wang, I called Chen Yu's side and asked them to supply us with some goods. You won't refuse, right?"
"Old Li, what do you mean? We have signed an exclusive supply contract with them."
"I know. That's why I called you. We're all on the same side. If you can't feed Mobile, then let Unicom starve."
"Old Li, you're breaking the market rules."
"Don't give me that. You have more resources than Unicom to begin with. Moreover, you have a dominant market position. We can't compete with Mobile in the market. What market rules? Aren't they all decided by you? If you insist on doing this, the market will be snatched up by Mobile. Do you think the higher-ups will agree? "
Currently, there were three major telecommunications companies in the country: Mobile, Unicom, and Telecom.
The reason why there were three companies and not one was so that the three companies could compete at the same time.
Of course, the three companies used to be one company.
In order to not form a monopoly and to better benefit the market, the three companies developed their own businesses separately.
Even so, Mobile had a large share of the mobile telecommunications resources and had always been in a dominant position in the market.
Although the other three companies had quite a number of customers, the combined volume of the two companies was not enough for Mobile.
Of course, Telecom's wireless communications business was quite small now. Their wireless communications business was mainly Little Smart.
But no matter what happened to Telecom, if the higher-ups felt that Telecom could also develop wireless communications business, they would give them a license in the future.
In fact, in 2008, Telecom had indeed obtained a 3G communication license.
But if it was purely based on the market, they would not be able to compete with Mobile in 100 years.
In a telecommunications market like this, Telecom was not only the market leader, but also involved the higher-ups.
As long as the higher-ups intervened, the market would have to be temporarily sidelined.
"Alright, alright. You guys can do whatever you want."
Wang Jianzhou was speechless with Li Guohua and said helplessly.
Li Guohua was overjoyed. Wang Jianzhou had basically agreed. "Old Wang, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? I just feel like I've been cheated."
"Cheated? Who cheated you? Lenovo?"
"Lenovo cheated me? How is that possible?"
"Then who is it?"
"Who else could it be? Huanyu Technologies."
"What's wrong, Old Wang? How did you get cheated by Huanyu Technologies?"
"Old Li, are you stupid?"
Wang Jianzhou said anxiously. "Look, Huanyu Technologies said they would provide us with exclusive mobile phones. But in the end, Unicom came over and gave them another business for no reason."
"Seems like it. But there's nothing we can do about it. Their dual SIM and dual standby service is too attractive. If Unicom doesn't do it, you guys will snatch all the customers away."
"You think that's all?"
Wang Jianzhou said angrily. "Recently, Lenovo gathered a group of mobile phone manufacturers to stop Huanyu from entering the market. Look, we have become their accomplices."
"Uh …"
Li Guohua was stunned. Then, he thought about it and realized it was true.
"Just now, Lenovo's Yang Yuanqing called me to ask for an explanation."
"What did you say?"
"What can I say? I can only laugh it off."
"You are too polite. If Yang Yuanqing dares to call me, I will scold him to death. F * ck, this is our mobile phone company's business. What does Lenovo have to do with it? Who does this guy think Lenovo is? I was already unhappy with him because of the contract aircraft incident. He still wants to take advantage of our mobile phone company. If it wasn't for Liu Chuanzhi, I wouldn't even bother with him. "
Li Guohua said confidently.
