Chapter 536: There Is No Room for Tigers in One Mountain, Even if They Are a Male and a Female

1995 can be said to be the most representative year for the development of the mobile phone industry. Since the first mobile phone was launched in 1983, people did not edit the first text message until 1992. In 1993, the mainland mobile phone became popular in China, but in 1995, the flip phone was already available, and the size was halved compared to before.

At present, China is negotiating with Ericsson about the first GSM phone to enter the country, and Guangzhou has begun to open the GSM network.

Under the influence of Yang Dongxu, Nokia has made great contributions to the construction of China's 2G network, and of course has made a lot of profits, but in terms of mobile phone sales, like other countries in the world, it has not paid attention to the Chinese market.

Since Nokia sold off its traditional departments in 1990 to reduce its burden and only left the electronics department, it has achieved earth-shaking changes in just four years.

Especially in 1994, the appearance of Nokia 2100 made it the standard for GSM digital communications in Europe. With clear sound quality, smart appearance, large-scale display and scrolling text menu, this phone has brought sales of 20 million units.

Such a surge in sales further stimulated the enthusiasm of all Nokia employees, making them ready to seize the opportunity to kill Motorola, the leader in the international market. The two giants have not paid enough attention to the Chinese market for the time being.

Because whether it is the Chinese operating system or the mobile phone text editing. At present, neither mobile phone company has the intention to develop Chinese. They are all paying attention to the English market and grabbing international market share.

This time, Yang Dongxu used his shareholder status to obtain the 50,000 mobile phone OEM share, and the content he was going to embed was the Chinese operating system and text editing function.

Compared with the telephone charges that have been continuously reduced due to continuous competition abroad, domestic telephone charges are still a matter of complaint even after 2018 in the future.

Before the emergence of Wifi, the amount of text messages sent by mobile phones was absolutely surprising to foreigners. Therefore, the emergence of mobile phones that can send marginal Chinese text messages is the real beginning of the domestic mobile phone market.

I chatted with Kalu in the room all night, and both of us had a great time. However, what made Yang Dongxu somewhat dissatisfied was that no matter how he guided Kalu, he still decided to focus on the international market in the next few years, to be precise, the economically developed European and American countries, and the focus of Asia would only be on the developed places of South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Kalu was not very interested in the mainland, which was the consensus of most Nokia shareholders. So at the end of the discussion, Yang Dongxu, who was a little angry, directly put forward a condition. He won the power of Nokia's general agent in China at a price of 100 million yuan per year.

No matter how many mobile phones Yang Dongxu wanted to be manufactured by Nokia, Nokia would satisfy it, but these mobile phones were limited to sales in China and could not be sold abroad, and whether Yang Dongxu could sell them or not was up to his own profit and loss.

The accurate content was that Yang Dongxu needed to buy 100 million yuan of mobile phones from Nokia every year for domestic sales. As for whether he could sell back the 100 million yuan of capital, that was Yang Dongxu's own problem, and this domestic market did not include Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, but only the mainland.

As for Yang Dongxu's need to get more goods after exceeding 100 million yuan, he needed to give Nokia a 10% profit margin, and then give as many goods as he wanted.

This profit margin seemed very low, but it was not low at all. Because Nokia can be said to be a conscientious enterprise, their net profit margin is generally around 17%, and basically does not exceed 20%. It is simply not comparable to those smartphones in later generations that rely on brand advantages to easily reach 100%, or even hundreds of dollars.

It is precisely because of such solid quality and cost-effectiveness beyond ordinary mobile phones that Nokia has become the world's mobile phone overlord, so it is not unreasonable to drink and peck.

After discussing this contract with the Finnish board of directors, Kalu rejected Yang Dongxu's idea of ​​signing for 20 years at a time. Originally, Yang Dongxu was only signed for five years, and then after several discussions, it was halved and signed for ten years.

In fact, the reason why it was only signed for ten years, not 20 years. Kalu played a big role in this. Although he regarded Yang Dongxu as a friend, foreigners clearly distinguished between work and personal feelings.

After learning that Yang Dongxu was definitely a business genius who did not match his age, even Kalu felt that Yang Dongxu was overwhelmed by patriotism for signing such a contract with a minimum guarantee.

But as one of Nokia's shareholders and the person in charge of this trip to China, he must be responsible for the company and use the first-hand information he has to check the company.

So he promised Yang Dongxu that the agency period was 5 years, which he felt was too long. As a shareholder who is very optimistic about the mobile phone industry, he thinks that it is more reasonable to sign a contract for one year. Even so, it is a bit unfair to Yang Dongxu, but it is very beneficial to the company and can be adjusted according to market changes.

His request was naturally rejected by Yang Dongxu, and he called Zhou Ya directly and asked her to go to Finland to hold a shareholders' meeting. Finally, after most shareholders voted, Yang Dongxu got a 10-year agency contract.

"I always have a hunch that those old guys who agreed to this contract will regret it in the future." In the hotel restaurant, Kalu, who was really not used to chopsticks, ate the ingredients in front of him with a fork and spoon.

Invite foreigners to eat Chinese food, and it is just some home-cooked dishes, not some banquets. Now only Yang Dongxu can do it. Now, foreign businessmen are generally entertained with Western food, for fear that these foreign guests will not sign the contract because of the poor food.

"Then I sincerely hope that your premonition will come true, because that means I will make a lot of money." Yang Dongxu smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand.

"Then you can treat me to a big meal. I heard that there are many incredible meals in China. This is just an appetizer." Kalu said half-jokingly, and picked the pepper on the chicken on the plate and put it into his mouth, sucking the cool air while picking the second one.

There is a kind of cold called you think Finland is very cold. Although a quarter of the land area is in the Arctic Circle, most Finns do not live in the land of the Arctic Circle. In addition, the influence of the Atlantic warm current makes Finland much warmer than other countries at the same latitude.

So although Finns also drink strong liquor, it is limited to a part of them, not like Russia where everyone likes to drink vodka.

Therefore, Kalu couldn't adapt to the irritating food like chili peppers for a while, but the biggest feature of Chinese food with chili peppers is that the spicier it is, the more you want to eat it. Even if your lips are burning, you still can't bear to stop the action in your hands.

"Haha, definitely." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

"How can a victory bought with money be worth being so happy? Should I kiss you?" An inappropriate voice sounded from the side, and Yang Dongxu turned his head and saw Bai Xi's figure in his eyes.

In fact, Bai Xi regretted it when she said this. As the queen of Bai Xi, she has always been high above, and she has never said such sarcastic words like now.

But I don't know why she didn't like this person when she saw Yang Dongxu for the first time, and the reason is not just because this person beat her brother, but a kind of vigilance and unspeakable hostility towards the same kind.

Bai Xi can be said to be smart since she was a child. Whether it is IQ or EQ, it is the best. Otherwise, it is impossible to learn six languages, and graduate from Oxford at the age of 20. Enter the Baijia industry as a daughter, and increase the Baijia industry tenfold in just three or ten years.

It made Baijia completely break free from the constraints of the economy and have a more flexible layout in politics. It can be said that she created a business miracle in just three years.

And in the environment of Baijia, which favors men over women, she managed all the industries of Baijia as a daughter. Although the resources of Baijia itself played an indispensable role in this process, you have to admit that she is indeed qualified to be a "queen".

But since returning to China, such a queen has been hearing all kinds of stories about a genius who is even more petty than her. She is a top student, and the other party is also a top student. Although the other party has not gone abroad, it seems that she is indeed a little better than her.

She is a business genius, and the other party is simply a business godfather. Starting from scratch, the information that can be found in China at present has no less than 10 billion assets. If what she did can be called a miracle, then Yang Dongxu is a legend.

It seems that Yang Dongxu can suppress her in everything, especially this guy is only 20 years old this year. This made Bai Xi, when facing Yang Dongxu, like a mountaineering enthusiast standing on a mountain peak, unexpectedly saw a higher mountain in the distance, so she unconsciously had the desire to challenge and conquer.

Yang Dongxu usually seemed to be as unknown as a mountain, but he was definitely not the kind of person who would be easily conquered by others. So he could react to Bai Xi's provocation because he was lazy, but he would never not fight back after Bai Xi started.

"You are crazy about money, I will invest tens of millions if you kiss me, are you sure you are so valuable?" Yang Dongxu looked at Bai Xi with a smile, and his eyes could not help but linger on her red lips.

"You" Bai Xi's face flushed red in anger, and it was obvious that Yang Dongxu's harsh words made her feel humiliated instantly.

But after thinking carefully, she also felt that her provocation just now was indeed too careless. After all, no matter how Yang Dongxu got the Nokia mobile phone OEM order, 50,000 mobile phones were not a small number.

If Yang Dongxu spent tens of millions just to win him out of anger, she really overestimated this guy before.

So even if you don't want to admit it, you have to admit that Yang Dongxu won such a large OEM order at once. The main reason is that he is optimistic about the mobile phone market and mobile phone OEM, and winning over Bai Xi is just a matter of convenience. But such a matter of convenience is even more depressing and makes people even more angry.
