Chapter 601 Consumer Goods Companies

After the new product launch conference, the domestic flagship store and the Honor three-piece set received a lot of inquiries. Unfortunately, the smart watch will not go on sale until May, which affected the performance. However, the drone that appeared at the launch conference for the first time was still popular. , sales doubled.

However, even if the new WP phone is sold at a reduced price, it still does not have a sales of 500 million in a week. This has to be a bit disappointing, and Honor has begun to re-evaluate its cooperation with Microsoft.

Fortunately, the Honor 5 and Note are still selling like hotcakes, and the Android phone king has received the same respect as the IPhone, and has sold more phones, but at best the sales cycle is not as good as the IPhone.

Already having a relatively perfect team, mobile phone patents, all-Netcom baseband chips, self-developed mobile phone CPUs and operating systems are all planned. Qu Li doesn't really want to take care of things anymore, so the development of capacitive fingerprint unlocking chips can attract his attention. .

Qu Li prefers the rear-mounted fingerprint recognition solution, but they all say that it is ugly to have a hole in the back. They want to put it on the front or side, and it is not in line with their long-term product plan: full screen and lighter and thinner.Therefore, rear-mounted and under-screen fingerprint recognition are given priority. As for the front-mounted model that reduces the screen-to-body ratio, forget it.He also wants to replace physical buttons with linear motors and replace fingerprint recognition with 3D visual perception solutions.

After that came Honor’s shareholder meeting. There was nothing to say. The net profit of 120 billion US dollars was among the best in the world. That is to say, smartphones belong to the consumer electronics industry. There is a gap between Honor and Apple in all aspects, so the price-to-earnings ratio has always been 10 times. about.

Having made so much money, Honor has no plans to pay dividends for the time being. It will continue to increase the number of sales outlets and strengthen the competitiveness of tablets and laptops, which account for the bulk of sales.In other words, Honor’s product line will expand from notebooks to all-in-one machines.

At the same time, Sanjay Jia is very interested in the network-wide intelligence proposed by Qu Li and wants to try to promote this plan.Then voice speakers and smart screens may be the key.Accordingly, it is necessary to add streaming music, radio stations, and audiobook resources to this product.Fortunately in China, once Jumei acquires the company, we can start competing for music copyrights.Abroad, we can only rely on Sanjay Jia to arrange people to work hard.

Qu Li is not optimistic about whole-house smart home. After all, this thing is too advanced, but who makes him full of imagination? With so many manufacturing companies in China, Honor can support a group of brothers to upgrade their brands and conquer the world in the international market. Don’t be afraid of not having a partner.

So, at the shareholders' meeting, Sanjay Jia explained the plan and presented samples.Honor's current product development capabilities far exceed Amazon's. As long as you can think of an idea, you can basically make it.

"We launched this product not to make money, but to occupy the core position of the smart home in the whole house. Through it, we can play music, set alarms, query information, control switches, etc..." said Sanjay Jia.

This smart voice speaker still needs a lot of improvements, but the core is Klun, the voice assistant, and the second is the sound quality, so shareholders don't care about some details.

Then why not keep it secret and disclose it to shareholders in advance?Because whole-house intelligence cannot be kept secret, but needs to build momentum and require a large number of partners to join.Honor has never thought of monopolizing the market. It is the best choice to expand the whole-house smart home market together.

Amidst the exclamations, the shareholders' meeting went smoothly. Besides, the contents of the shareholders' meeting involve commercial secrets and cannot be disclosed at will. What can be disclosed is either irrelevant or has ulterior motives, such as for publicity.

It’s a lie that Honor’s voice speaker doesn’t make money, but it doesn’t make a lot of money. Who will promote whole-house intelligence without money? How can ordinary people experience Gates’ high-tech mansion life?Well, the above words are just for publicity.Anyway, Qu Li is not optimistic about it. All home appliances are connected to the Internet. How big is the risk?Might as well buy a home robot.

In short, Honor is on the right track and has started various attempts. Lei Jun is responsible for the traditional smartphone, tablet and computer business, Wang Tao is responsible for the drone balance car and camera, and who is responsible for the current smart wearable devices (watches, headphones) Are you responsible?Sanjay Jia, as one of the top five bosses in the company, is very good at making people responsible for the construction of smart homes and the Made for Honor certification system.

Among them, Pentax Camera focuses on action cameras and more professional mirrorless and SLR cameras, focusing on high-end products, and also serves drones and handheld photography equipment.The global camera market is shrinking. Sales fell significantly last year and the decline is even greater this year. Pentax cameras are pretty good. With Honor supporting them, they can focus on improving their technology, such as making mirrorless cameras.

No matter how hard it is for a camera to stand up, Wang Tao wants to apply drone products to a wider range of fields such as agriculture, electric power, surveying and mapping, and public security.

The combination of Pentax cameras and Honor drones may become a classic configuration. Maybe the Pentax camera brand will eventually disappear. Who knows, Qu Li doesn’t care anyway.

I originally wanted to visit the Tianjing factory, but there was a meeting in Pengcheng, and then there was a forum in Boao. Qu Li had to attend, so we had to wait. However, the Tianjing factory is still producing some Motorola smartphones. The overall renovation plan is still being formulated, so it’s not in a hurry.

The meeting in Pengcheng is an IT leaders summit. I don't know why Ma Yun and Li Yanhong are so enthusiastic about it. Qu Li is not interested. He doesn't brag much now.Glory is so awesome, no one in the country can match it.

For example, Chrysanthemum Factory launched HiSilicon k2009V3 in 1 and k3v2 last year. It cannot be said to be bad, but it can only be said to be too lame. It is not as good as Qinglong No. [-] because it generates heat and freezes and consumes a lot of power.Qu Li is not afraid that Chrysanthemum Factory can surpass Glory in technology. Regardless of talent reserves or financial advantages, Glory will be ahead of Chrysanthemum Factory.

So why does Mao still worry about them?Because everyone has different combat capabilities, the glory built by Qu Li is an excellent "multinational" company, and the "wolf" culture of Chrysanthemum Factory has stronger combat capabilities. "Wherever it goes, not a blade of grass grows." Is it a lie?

When the technical gap between everyone is too far, the Chrysanthemum Factory will naturally be far inferior to the glory, but everyone is making progress.After Honor reaches 95 points, it will be difficult to reach 100 points. But how difficult will it be for Chrysanthemum Factory to grow from 60 points to 90 points?

When Yu Dazui reached 80 points, he dared to shout "way ahead". How many bubbles could they blow when they reached 90 points?When the self-driving road test videos of Juhua Factory and BAIC Jihu were released, they were claimed to be "absolutely number one", but they continued to be "far ahead" two years later.

As a consumer, Qu Li was naturally upset at being deceived, but as an entrepreneur, he admired it more. Within the scope allowed by the law and under the same rules of the game, using the least cost to create the greatest publicity is not awesome. ?

"Juhua Mobile Phone is definitely our strongest competitor in China, and the global market is the same as Apple and Samsung." Qu Li and Lei Jun talked about this: "But I don't want to compete with Juhua Factory."

“Our aim and purpose is to serve consumers. Our job is to combine mature technology with humanities and art into a product that can be accepted and praised by most people. Although we have leading chips and operating systems, But we are not a technology company, we are a consumer products company..."

When Apple later faced the strong impact of Samsung and Juhua Factory, Tim Cook said that perhaps "second-rate companies adapt to user needs, while first-rate companies create needs for users." Qu Li believed it to be true and was willing to try.
