409【PHS Cuts Prices Again】

The canteen at the headquarters of Shenzhou Science and Technology Company is very large. There is no way to do it. There are too many workers and the location is relatively remote, so they can only eat in their own canteen.

Meals are not provided for free. There is 3 yuan per person per day for meal allowances, and you can buy relatively simple meals. But if you want to eat better, you can only pay for it yourself. Ordinary workers are reluctant, and cadres and white-collar workers often spend money to eat fried food on the second floor.

Song Weiyang pretended to line up with the workers, holding a steel dinner plate in his hand, and soon bought a basic set meal (one meat and one vegetable, free vegetable soup) for 1 yuan.

The aunt who was in charge of cooking had a keen eye, and frantically added meat to the chairman's dinner plate, and the slices of meat were piled up in the shape of a hill. Look at the dinner plates of other workers, good guy, the meat dishes only have one or two slices of meat as garnishes, and the rest are filled with vegetables.

Song Weiyang took a look at the situation and asked Shen Fuxing: "Is the canteen outsourced?"

"Outsourcing, the company doesn't have the energy to manage it." Shen Fuxing said.

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "There is no employee who responds that the food is too bad?"

Shen Fuxing also smiled and said: "Our food is good enough. Although there is not much meat, at least there is enough oil and water. If you look at other factories, you can't see any oil flowers, let alone meat."

Shen Si suddenly said: "The assembly line workers are very frugal. Some people are reluctant to buy meat and vegetables. They only eat vegetables for meals, and they can save 50 cents for meal supplements. If they don't have enough vegetables, they can eat vegetable soup to fill their stomachs."

"There is such a thing?" Shen Fuxing was surprised. He usually ate on the second floor, and rarely paid attention to the situation on the first floor.

Shen Si said: "It's very common. Especially those workers from rural areas, and those who have laid-off workers at home, can save at least 1 yuan a day from the meal allowance."

Song Weiyang shook his head and said: "This is not acceptable, the food is too bad, it will definitely affect energy."

Shen Fuxing said: "I'll ask someone to change it later. Instead of directly paying the meal supplement, I will replace it with a meal coupon that can only be used on the day."

Song Weiyang didn't worry about the company's food anymore, and asked, "How is the market of PHS recently?"

"The market is definitely fine, but there is too much pressure from the authorities," Shen Fuxing said, pointing to the ceiling. "The boss of the Ministry of Information Industry recently publicly told reporters that he personally dislikes PHS. If it wasn't for too much interest , with the telecommunications departments in various places carrying it, I am afraid that PHS has been directly banned."

Song Weiyang shook his head and smiled wryly: "That big guy is very aggressive, the Tsar with an iron fist. Let's try to keep a low profile, and don't make mistakes with him. If it doesn't work, we can share some of the profits."

"PHS has become so low-key that it can't be any more low-key," Shen Fuxing said with a sigh, "I don't dare to open new provincial capitals now, and can only promote business in some third-tier cities."

Historically, in another year, PHS will be suppressed in various ways.

At that time, Wu Ying had no choice but to invite the big leaders to inspect in order to survive. As a result, the big leader's words didn't work, and he was screwed twice in a row, and finally ran to the big leader to survive.

The iron-fisted tsar of the Ministry of Information Industry never considered commercial interests, only thinking about the long-term layout. He hates the backward technology of PHS, and at the same time, he does not allow foreigners to get involved in China's electronic information industry.

Historically, China wanted to allow foreign capital to occupy 50% of the shares of telecom operators in exchange for tickets to enter the WTO. This plan was directly disrupted by the boss. At the same time, the boss discovered that China's Internet industry was invaded by foreign capital, so he announced below: Foreigners are prohibited from investing in China's Internet companies, and the Ministry of Information Industry will eliminate all illegal practices!

If this document is implemented, all companies including Sohu, Sina, Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba, etc. will be completely finished!

Fortunately, CDC was launched as a shield.

This broken website is a Hong Kong-funded enterprise, which was only established in May 1999. It has no influence in China at all, and its traffic is so low that it is not as good as many small local websites. However, they have a good name, Zhonghua.com, so various packaging and publicity, saying that they are very important in the Chinese Internet industry.

There were really foolish Wall Street venture capitalists who were fooled. A website that was established less than three months ago raised $84 million in financing.

When the boss of the Ministry of Information Industry announced that foreigners were not allowed to invest in the Chinese Internet, everyone stood up and talked about China.com. Internet entrepreneurs collectively believe that once the Ministry of Information Industry’s document is implemented, all Chinese companies that really do the Internet will die, and only Hong Kong-funded websites that cheat money like China.com can become large Hong Kong-funded websites that can accept foreign investment.

Even portal sites such as Sina and Sohu have decided to register overseas, the only way to avoid the ban.

Faced with this situation, the Ministry of Information Industry can only make concessions, allowing foreigners to invest in Chinese Internet companies, but it must implement a disguised structure of "Chinese, Chinese and foreign". That is to say, foreign capital cannot directly invest in China's Internet. It must first hold shares in an overseas company, and that foreign company must own shares in a Chinese company before changing hands to invest in China's Internet.

This is why many Chinese Internet companies have set up foreign companies to hold shares or hold shares. This is not just for tax avoidance, but also a legacy of the 1999 Ministry of Information Industry ban.

By the way, the China.com, which cheated the venture capital, got 84 million US dollars in financing, and went to various venture capital projects, investing in many large and small websites, including Shanda.com. Later, Shanda wanted to make online games and fell out with China.com. Boss Chen took 1.5 million breakup fees to represent Legend, and then took an international agency contract, empty-handed Bailang's free trial server and free trial of telecom broadband, and became the richest man in China in one fell swoop. , and invested in it smoothly, and now the author has a place to beg for food.

Song Weiyang also knew one or two big leaders. When the big boss suppresses PHS next year, he can only bite the bullet and ask for help.

The telecommunications sector must also be a huge help, and China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicom have already played out their brains. China Unicom is often bullied. If you had a China Unicom mobile phone at the time, it is normal that your mobile phone or China Telecom fixed line cannot get through to your number.

Historically, the three major operators had to wait until 2000 to openly tear their faces apart.

At that time, PHS had just launched services in Shaobing City, and suddenly mobile users across the country could not get through PHS in Shaobing City. The Shaobing City Telecom Bureau immediately retaliated. The landlines and PHS in the entire Shaobing City couldn't get through to the national mobile numbers. In this regard, the Unicom user laughed: Basic exercises, don’t be alarmed, just sit down, I’m used to it.

The telecommunications departments across the country, including telecommunications giants, are the strong backing of PHS.

Shen Fuxing said: "Policy is one aspect, and the current counterfeit mobile phones have too much impact!"

Well, there is already a saying of "cottage".

It is said that it originated from Hong Kong City, and "shanzhai" means "small-scale or underground factory" in Cantonese.

One said it originated from the special zone, because at this time 99% of the counterfeit mobile phones were produced in the special zone, and the place of origin did not dare to write it out blatantly, but could only be marked with "sz", so it gradually evolved into a "cottage".

Song Weiyang asked: "Counterfeit mobile phones can also steal PHS's business?"

Shen Fuxing said: "The most rubbish counterfeit mobile phones can now be bought for 2,000 yuan, and even more than 1,000 yuan can be bought for related ones, which has disrupted the mobile phone market. Now Motorola, Ericsson, and Nokia's low-end mobile phones , have been driven down by counterfeit phones, and I plan to reduce the price of PHS to below 2,000 yuan."

Song Weiyang said: "Just drop to 1800. As long as the price is lower than 2000, many people who don't buy mobile phones will also consider buying PHS."

"Then sell it for 1888 yuan!" Shen Fuxing said.
