Great Power Army Reclamation

The company's global revenue in 2002 reached US$12.8 billion, more than half of which came from markets outside the United States.

Kodak has approximately 70,000 employees worldwide, 39,000 of whom are in the United States. The company has production bases in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia and China.

Sells a wide range of imaging products to nearly every country in the world. By 2012, the number of global employees dropped sharply to just over 10,000.

The fall of Kodak is an example in the history of technological development. In fact, it is not only his family, but also giants such as Ericsson, Motorola, and Nokia that were once rampant.

It's all because they sit on their own and are intoxicated with their own glory, while ignoring the rapid development of science and technology in this era, and thus being lost in the long river of history.

Otherwise, given their strength, whoever spends a large amount of money on research and development will be inferior to others?

As long as they keep up with the times, they will be ahead of others based on their brand advantages. However, he failed to see the overall situation clearly and blindly sat on his own merits and looked at the sky, which was a waste of martial arts.

In fact, these are all mistakes of the decision-makers. Such examples are common in the history of human development. Therefore, if a company has a good leader, it may not be eliminated.

Begonia Fruit Company is undoubtedly such a company. This company was founded by Steve Jobs and declined because of his departure.

But with his return and renewed brilliance, their current computers and notebooks are the thinnest. It also has its own operating system and basically has no dependence on other companies.

And now they also have their own mobile phones, and the key mobile phone systems are also their own. Although it is not outstanding in front of many big-name mobile phones, it is already well known by many people.

The current domestic mobile phone market is actually very chaotic. Except for a few big foreign and domestic brands, assembly machines are also rampant.

Counterfeit phones from Shenzhen and Guangzhou can be seen everywhere. Not only can these knock-off phones be seen everywhere in the wholesale shops of Huaqiangbei, there are also sales staff from some manufacturers traveling all over the country.

In addition to retailing in their own stores, they also supply products to local retailers because they are all smuggled products from Hong Kong Island. So the price is extremely low.

The key is that the price of this copycat phone is very low, but it is not unusable, and some functions are more powerful than the brand phone.

Because they abandoned many functions of brand-name machines and instead enhanced functions such as microphone volume and games, some low-end people prefer these knock-off products.

They also have one of the most awesome methods of sales, which is OEM. Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, whatever brand you want is available.

I remember there was a joke about an old man who moved bricks and saved up for a month to buy a mobile phone. After picking and choosing, I settled on one that cost 500 yuan.

I just looked around and didn't know what brand it was, so I asked the salesperson. The salesperson saw that he was relatively unsophisticated, so he told him directly that this phone is suitable for you. It is not allowed to be dropped, and it is not afraid of being squeezed. If it breaks, he will bring it back to you and replace it at any time.

The eldest brother hesitated: "Don't they say that Nokia's is the best? That one is not afraid of falling."

The salesperson replied: "This is Nokia, I haven't had time to put the brand on you yet."

After saying that, the salesperson took out a trademark and put it on it. The eldest brother returned to the construction site with his mobile phone satisfied.

After returning to the construction site, the workers also liked the mobile phone very much. Everyone took turns watching it and some took the opportunity to call home.

The last person with a Nokia phone compared it with his own phone for a long time. I found that it looked better than my own mobile phone, but the logo looked wrong, so I went to ask the contractor.

The contractor laughed when he saw it: "This is the Motorola trademark. You will know it just by looking at this."

When everyone saw it, it turned out to be Motorola. Everyone said it was good, but Motorola was not as strong as Nokia.

The eldest brother suddenly became unhappy. I only wanted the Nokia for the sake of strength. Why did you give me the Motorola? That one is only used by foremen. What if I break it?

After arriving at the mobile phone store, the eldest brother asked for a return, saying that he wanted a Nokia and he didn't want the Motorola.

The salesperson patted his head and said, "This is Nokia, the brand is wrong." I immediately removed that brand and replaced it with a Nokia one.

Now the eldest brother went back satisfied. When the co-workers saw that the phone was really a Nokia, they all liked it very much. Then people started to go to this store to buy.

This is a large construction site. In half a month, this store sold more than 200 mobile phones.

While working, the mixer, elevator and vibrator were just ringing, and anyone who called could clearly hear the ringing tone.

On the contrary, the contractor, Motorola, made a lot of noise, so he had to call someone else, otherwise he wouldn't be heard at all. On the contrary, the mobile phones of these workers are fine.

In the end, the contractor got angry and bought the same one as everyone else. I only carry that Motorola when discussing business.

This is a joke, but it is very representative. At that time, people didn't actually care about the brand. They just cared about whether they could hear the phone? Other functions are of no use to them.

There are also the mini games that come with copycat phones, which are much more fun than those on branded phones. It was only from that time that there was a real mobile phone family.

At that time, mobile phones could not be loaded with chat software. If you wanted to chat, you could just make phone calls or send text messages. At that time, mobile phone screens were still the size of matchboxes, and playing them was actually not that exciting.

But for migrant workers, having such a thing at night is enough to kill the boring life.

Although the market seems very disordered, real manufacturers understand that a big change in mobile phones is coming soon.

Beginning in January 2000, Japan's largest telecom operator NTT DoCoMo launched the first officially launched color screen mobile phone D502 i, realizing people's "color dream". Unfortunately, because the network used in Japan is different from the GSM and CDMA network technologies in China, basically this type of mobile phone cannot be used in non-Japanese areas.

It is also this revolution in mobile phone screens that has transformed mobile phones from mere communication tools into smart terminals.

Junken Electromechanical is basically self-sufficient in mobile phone chips, but it has not yet supplied a large amount of chips to the domestic market. Ye Yuze was waiting for an opportunity. The technology had already matured and mass production was only a matter of time.

A few days ago, Mr. Ni called him again and planned to set up a mobile phone display company, but Ye Yuze rejected it. The technical content of that thing was not high, so there was no need to spend too much energy.
