Chapter 245 Market Exclusion
The island country, Edo International Airport, Lu Zixin and others arrived by appointment. On the other hand, the reception staff of KDDI also waited for a long time.
"Hello, Mr. Lu, I am Jiamei Beijima from KDDI Co., Ltd. You are welcome to visit our company. Please let me know if you have any needs."
The leader is a young island woman who speaks fluent Chinese.
"Thank you." Lu Zixin replied politely, and they got into the car to the KDDI headquarters and went to the company first.
At the company headquarters, Lu Zixin met with Mita Zheping, the president of KDDI Corporation. Co., Ltd. is a joint-stock (limited) company in the island country. The president is equivalent to the general manager, and the chairman is the chairman.
Mita Zheping is in his fifties, and his body is a little thin, but his eyes are very sharp, like a falcon.
"Mr. Lu, I am very happy to cooperate with Hongxin. The press conference will be held tomorrow afternoon. I hope you can come to watch the ceremony."
Mita Zheping speaks Japanese, but through the HX2S mobile phone placed on the desktop, Japanese has been translated into Chinese.
This is the universal translation function launched by the Hongxin smartphone after it decided to enter the overseas market. It can translate the voices of several main languages, but in addition to Chinese, the language library of other voices is not particularly rich, so if the dialect accent is very heavy , it is also difficult to identify.
However, with Hongxin's intelligent voice technology, this translation function has exceeded 90% of the translators on the market. The important thing is that it is just an APP, and there is no need to purchase a translator.
"I'm looking forward to it too," Lu Zixin said.
Next, Lu Zixin visited KDDI with the accompanying employees to learn about their business.
Jiamei Beidao is in charge of the commentary. She said: "Our company's main business is mobile data business, which is divided into island business department and international communication network department."
"Our mobile network and telecommunications services are not only in the island country, but also internationally leading and excellent, ranking 231st in the world's top 500. We have reached a cooperation with a communication network company in the United States to jointly develop 5G communication technology…”
Lu Zixin took a look around and did find a lot of merit. However, he also noticed that KDDI's business is not only traditional fixed business and mobile data business, but also provides new business content such as music download and network cloud services.
This shows that KDDI Telecom is also seeking a new profit direction, and this cooperation with Hongxin is estimated to be for this reason.
In Sanda Zheping's office, Sanda Zheping was reporting the arrival of the representative of the red letter to the president of the club.
"President, are you going to the press conference tomorrow?" Mita Zheping asked.
"No, I'm going to the United States tomorrow. You can handle the press conference and the rest." A flat and steady voice came from the phone. The speaker was Keigo Takeshita, chairman of KDDI Corporation.
"Yes, I understand, I will definitely do a good job in the business of representing Hongxin smart products this time!" Sanda Zheping assured.
"I hope so. I hope that by the end of the year, no other directors will say bad things to me." Takeshita Keigo's mood is not high, and he even carries some warnings.
Sanda Zheping responded quickly, but sighed in his heart, and the chairman was not optimistic about this project.
When he decided to act as an agent for Hongxin smart products earlier, Sanda Zheping decided to promote it after trying it out himself and knowing the status of Hongxin smart products in China.
However, many other high-level people do not agree with the smart products of Hongxin, and even the chairman is not optimistic. One is that this project will cost the company a lot of money and resources, the other is that they don’t really believe in Huaxia’s high-end technology products, and the third is that some other Huaxia brands and even Samsung and other brands are disadvantaged in the island market, making them think that the red letter products will suffer the same fate.
When reaching the cooperation, Mita Zheping was under enormous pressure. He contributed to this matter. If Hongxin's products did not perform well in the island market, I am afraid that many people would be dissatisfied with him as the president.
In the evening, in the hotel where he was staying, Lu Zixin was still reading the latest news from the island country about the news that Hongxin smart products would be sold in the island country.
The island version of the Hongxin smartphone translated all these into Chinese so that he could understand it at a glance.
"Edo Shimbun": "KDDI Co., Ltd. has confirmed the agency of Huaxia Hongxin brand smart products, which are expected to be released in my country this month."
The news report reads: "Huaxia's Hongxin Electronic Technology Company is a high-tech enterprise that has risen in China in recent years. The Hongxin brand smartphones they released have been widely praised in China, and even surpassed Apple's mobile phone in the Chinese market. Market sales and turnover..."
"KDDI claims that the performance of the Hongxin smartphone will completely surpass that of Apple's mobile phone and my country's domestic smart phone, with the most advanced mobile phone chips, Hongxin mobile phone system, intelligent voice control and other functions."
...
Below the news, there were hundreds of comments from netizens in the island country. Lu Zixin clicked to read it curiously, but found that the situation was not satisfactory.
Among them, the most popular one reads: "Better than the Apple mobile phone and all the smart phones in our country? How much did the top management of KDDI charge the Huaxia company?"
There are also many doubts in the comments below: "Huaxia specializes in selling some copycat junk products, and I never buy them."
"What red letter, I have never heard of it. Even more than Apple, Huaxia has no such technology at all!"
"Everyone should support domestic products, buy Kyocera and Soni products, and boycott Hongxin mobile phones!"
"Trash KDDI, actually going to represent Hongxin products, is their company going to close down?"
"Hopefully they won't sell one, like Samsung."
...
Of course, there are also more pertinent comments. For example, someone commented: "Don't listen to those people's nonsense, Hongxin's smart phone is indeed better than ours. You will know after using it."
Then this person was sprayed by a group of people, "Are you a spy?"
"No one believes you!"
"This person must be Chinese."
Someone else advised: "I don't think everyone needs to be so repulsive. When the time comes, we will see how it goes. If it doesn't work well, don't buy it."
...
In addition to this news, there is also news about the press conference, and some people commented below: "I will never watch it, stop posting these garbage news!"
"That's right, I won't buy it either, stop selling these rubbish things!"
"Originally, I didn't want to go at all, but they actually invited my favorite Ishihara Koto, I can't go! But I went for the goddess, and it has nothing to do with their mobile phones."
"Me too, Ishihara Qin is my favorite female star, this time I'm going too!"
"Damn, I obviously don't want to go, why is Ishihara Koto there?"
"Ishihara Koto actually wants to attend this kind of event, it's so pitiful! I feel sorry for the goddess."
Lu Zixin is also somewhat familiar with Ishihara Kono's name. I really want to be a Japanese female star who has only become popular in the past six months. You can sometimes see her news on some domestic entertainment news, and she also has a large number of fans in China.
"Could it be that my Hongxin press conference can only be watched by female stars?" Lu Zixin remembered that when Hongxin was in China, not to mention holding a press conference, a news conference could easily make headlines.
"It seems that the market here is still waiting for Hongxin to conquer!"
