Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 435 Interview

As a start-up company, although Honor has achieved today's achievements with the explosion of the smartphone industry, Qu Li himself does not believe that there is no problem. Any company will actually encounter the problem of declining quality when it is forced to increase its production capacity. This is common sense.

There is a gap between Honor's quality and after-sales service and that of Apple's iPhone, and it has begun to show up now. Solving these problems requires a lot of time and energy. In China, it also involves pricing. In summary, it is a matter of refined management.

The price of Honor G4 Plus is lower than that of IPhone 4. Many ordinary consumers use this to infer that Honor is the smartphone brand second only to IPhone.

"So the price of Honor G5 in China will definitely rise and remain in the same price range as the new iPhone." Qu Li talked about these things in an exclusive interview with the media in Beijin. He was quite helpless. He wanted to be a good person in the market competition but couldn't. Morality.

The person who interviewed him this time was China Entrepreneur Magazine. The president of this magazine had changed. He contacted Qu Li through many connections. This time it was considered a reconciliation. He did not dare to escalate personal conflicts to organizational conflicts.

Entrepreneur magazine has a very deep background. The reason why it insists on interviewing Qu Li is not simple. He is an entrepreneur who is active in public opinion topics and cannot be avoided.

In the interview, he talked in detail about some situations that Honor has encountered, future development expectations, and his personal choices.For example, the sales volume of Honor mobile phones will exceed 2 million units within two years, and will exceed [-] million units within five years. Domestic sales will account for nearly [-]%, and R&D investment...

Although the reporter felt that Qu Li was bragging, he refrained from refuting.

"Honor will definitely focus on consumer electronics products. I am very optimistic about electric vehicles, but we must also face up to their difficulty and require long-term cultivation..."

"We speculate that the global smartphone market will enter the stock competition market in five years. Competition in mobile phones will become very fierce in 5 years. At that time, electric vehicles may become our new profit growth point."

"That means Honor will stop building cars in five years, right?" the reporter asked

"No, providing solutions for other brands is also among our choices. There are still too many unknowns in this industry, and it is impossible for us to make decisions in advance now."

Qu Li won't go into details about operating systems, chips, etc. Innovative businesses such as drones, well, are overpriced and low in cost performance. They are large toys and no one cares about them.

"Honor's product line is becoming more and more complex. Will those products with poor sales, such as laptops and routers, be abandoned?"

"I have to ask Lei Jun about this, I don't really care..." Qu Li will not give up. Honor sells wireless routers and wireless WiFi in order to cope with Microsoft's patent requirements, such as related patents for connecting Windows system computers through USB interfaces for management. I'm really worried. Honor phones only support Macos and Linux. If you use Windows, you can only use them on the same LAN...

Microsoft and Honor will reach a global strategic cooperation and jointly develop the Windows Phone system. This news will be announced after Honor is launched. The Mate series mobile phones will use the latest Windows Phone 7.5 system, opening up the connection between mobile phones and PCs.

As for the design style, it’s hard to convince Microsoft. It’s still the tile style. Some people in Honor also like this design, but Qu Li really doesn’t appreciate it, so he has no objections. Let him go, cannon fodder will be cannon fodder. Magic failed once, and mate failed again. Could it be that we can only use sub-brands?

"You want to have control of the company but not participate in the specific operations. How do you position yourself in Jumei and Honor?"

"I want control because I want to strike a balance between long-term interests and short-term interests. If it only has the smartphone business, I think Honor's market value can reach US$5000, but with the electric vehicle business, it can reach US$[-] trillion. It’s also possible…”

"The market value is one trillion US dollars, are you sure?"

"It's not too late to question after the sales of Honor mobile phones reach 2 million units." Qu Li is confident in this. Investors have long recognized that they have the ability to sell 2 million units. Assuming that the unit price is around US$500 at that time, there will be Sales of US$1000 billion, net profit of US$100 billion. A P/E ratio of 10 times would have a market value of US$1000 billion.

HonorG4Plus销量一天没有低于过20万台。按照现在一款新机半年左右的热销期，G4Plus卖个3000万很正常。别忘了荣耀还有G3、G4、mate三款手机在销售，最低卖到1999元了，国内今年智能手机市场增长率超过100%……

"We also need to consider the background of global quantitative easing." Qu Li added that he felt that Honor mobile phones would not reach a market value of US$2 billion even if they sold 5000 million units.Mudd, it seems that the only trick is to increase the price.

The reporter was easy to talk to and continued to return to the previous topic and asked about Qu Li's position in the company. Qu Li thought for a moment and did not brag in order not to overturn the situation.

"I play the same role in Jumei and Glory, which is to empower..."

“What is empowerment?”

"This is a term in management: empowerment. Its original meaning is authorization, but it is not enough to summarize my positioning. Empowerment is to give greater possibility of doing things..."

Then there is the popularization of Quli's management philosophy, from first principles, middle office to empowerment, and the basis of all this existence: corporate culture and values.

"Imagination and creativity are my strengths, but my weaknesses are obvious. I don't understand technology or management. Under normal circumstances, I should find employees who are honest and responsible. Then you guys won't come to interview me today..."

The reporter smiled awkwardly and understood what Qu Li meant.

"But I still want to find a partner who is better than me..."

"Aren't you afraid of losing control of the company?" the reporter took the opportunity to ask

"Of course I'm afraid, but it's useless. The chief designer told us that only development is the last word. It's impossible for me alone to make Jumei have a market value of US$200 billion..." Qu Li thought about it carefully, and there was no problem with this sentence. .

"But you got super voting rights this year..."

"It is human nature to strive for power and profit. To develop a company, we, as partners, need to be sensitive to the outside world and must limit this nature. That's why we have our current management system, corporate culture and values..."

"This doesn't seem...enough."

"Jumei Glory's corporate culture not only limits my power, but also limits other people's power. Only by constantly proving one's abilities can one gain the trust of others..." Qu Li

"Have you proven your ability?" The reporter still didn't understand.

"What do you think?" Qu Li smiled calmly.

The reporter thought of Facebook, Shopee group buying and Xiangyun; he thought of Honor’s single product hit strategy and supply chain enterprise support plan...

Hearing this, the reporter was in awe and finally had a clearer understanding of Qu Li's personal image. It is not easy for such a candid boy to be what he is today. Once he makes a mistake, Jumei Glory may not be what it is today. Qu Li Li may lose control.

I can't hold it in today
