Chapter 861: Cell Phone

"Old Xu, Lao Duan, you said you have good news for me?" Feng Yu picked up the teacup, blew twice, and took a sip.

Duan Yongping looked at Xu Lihua: "Old Xu, you should talk about this matter."

Xu Lihua nodded, and it was indeed his team that contributed the most. Besides, this matter itself was led by him and ordered by President Feng.

"President Feng, the mobile phone has been successfully developed!"

Feng Yu put down the cup in an instant, and swallowed the tea in his mouth: "The research and development was successful?! Great, did I say it was flipped?"

"This is a prototype, take a look." Xu Lihua opened a box, solemnly took out the mobile phone wrapped in yellow silk, and handed it to Feng Yu like a treasure.

This is the first mobile phone successfully developed by Aihua Electronics, which is very commemorative! If Feng Yu hadn't come, he would have been reluctant to take it out.

Feng Yu turned it on and looked at it. The screen was very small, and after turning it on, it was still gray and the resolution was not high. The buttons are not big, and the entire phone is only about ten centimeters long, five centimeters wide, and more than three centimeters thick.

But it's a clamshell, so it's understandably thicker.

Feng Yu glanced at the list of functions, and his brows frowned. He could only make and receive calls and send and receive text messages. At least there was a game function, right?

Feng Yu was even more upset when he heard the ringtone. There are no forty chords, right?

Seeing Feng Yu's expression, Xu Lihua and Duan Yongping, who were originally in high spirits, gradually lost the joy on their faces, and became a little nervous instead.

Feng is always dissatisfied with this phone, but they think it's pretty good.

"Let me mention a few points that need to be improved. First, when the phone cover is not lifted, you can't see the number. Now that there is a caller ID service, do you know? Although it is expensive, there will definitely be in the future. More people are willing to use this function. When the cover is lifted, the mobile phone is connected. What should I do if I encounter a call that I don’t want to answer? So on the other side of the cover, there is also a small screen, one inch is enough, which is to display The phone number. Then there must be a hang up button next to it. If you don’t want to answer the call, you can hang up directly.”

Xu Lihua immediately took a pen to record, every time Mr. Feng made suggestions, they were all good words.

"Second point, the cover is so big, but the screen is too small. Not to mention, for the screen, we can cooperate with Fengyu Electronics. They are not bad in the research of LCD and other display screens. And why is this gray screen? , foreign countries have color screens,

We also need to have a color screen, even if it's just a blue screen or an orange screen. "

"The third point is that the sound quality of the mobile phone is too poor, and there are only the most traditional ringtones in it. First, the sound quality of the ringtone should be improved, and secondly, there should be more choices of ringtones. We must have a ringtone that we have researched by ourselves so that others can hear it. , I know it’s our mobile phone. Forget it, I’ll get the ringtone later.” Feng Yu turned around and thought about which familiar music to use to make the classic ringtone of Huahua’s mobile phone, as well as the startup ringtone.

"Fourth, there are too few functions in the mobile phone. The simplest point is that the mobile phone is not just for making and receiving calls and sending and receiving text messages. You can load some games into it, such as Tetris and Snake, which are simple and fun, and relatively easy. Load it on your phone."

Xu Lihua asked in surprise: "Mr. Feng, this mobile phone is not cheap. It's not the kind of small game console that you hold in your hand. If this button is used to play games, it won't break if you press it. Who cares?"

"So, you need to increase the research and development efforts on the service life of the buttons, and ensure that the buttons of our mobile phones are very durable. If you are not willing to press such an expensive thing, what is the use?" Feng Yu gave Xu Lihua a white look.

In this regard, the best in the previous life was Nokia, which claimed to be able to crack walnuts. It's a pity that later mobile phones didn't pay attention to this point at all, because no one was willing to drop such an expensive thing, but instead, various mobile phone protective cases became popular. Besides, it doesn't matter if the mobile phone is damaged while playing games, if you are willing to use it, you are willing to buy a new one.

"The last point is the system functions of the mobile phone. We need to talk to Lianxiang Yinshan Software Company, and we need to increase them as much as possible. Forget it, I will tell them in detail later. You should try to make this mobile phone as thin as possible and as strong as possible. , the appearance design should be more beautiful, and the color of the shell should be the same as our pager, and there should be multiple choices. By the way, how is the battery life of this mobile phone?"

"The battery is customized with the wind and rain battery, and the standby time and talk time are more than 50% longer than those on the market, but the cost is a bit high."

"It doesn't matter if the cost is high. This is also one of our selling points. People who buy mobile phones are all so-called successful people. They absolutely don't want the phone to run out of power at critical times. And when the mobile phone is launched, a random original battery will be given as a gift. , so that it can be replaced when others run out of power.”

"We also need to give away batteries, so our cost will increase a lot."

"Won't you add the money for the battery as a gift? This is equivalent to selling an extra battery!" Feng Yu glared at Xu Lihua, these researchers, they are so stupid!

Look at Duan Yongping, who is also a researcher, how flexible his brain is! The Aihua cordless phone and the wind and rain cordless phone are selling so well. Just the ad you choose makes people remember the product.

Products should be developed from the perspective of users, and focus on user experience. Do you, a research and development staff, think it is useful? Also, the products are sold to make money, not exhibited here, we must pursue the maximization of profits!

Only then did Xu Lihua realize that, yes, it is a gift in name, but it can actually be added money. Mr. Feng is really good at business, why didn't I think of it.

"What's the cost of this mobile phone now?" Feng Yu asked the heavy guy in his hand.

"If it is mass-produced, the cost can be controlled below 2,000 yuan." Xu Lihua said somewhat proudly.

At present, a mobile phone on the market costs at least 6,000, and the best ones cost 1,000, and there are even 10,000 to 20,000. Well, not all of them are imported products, there is also a domestic mobile phone brand called Panda!

Panda started producing mobile phones as early as 1993. It was the first domestic manufacturer in China to have a network access license, but its technology was mediocre and its product design was not good.

When Feng Yu was talking about making mobile phones, Xu Lihua said that he would catch up with Panda phones within three years, so Feng Yu was not mad at all. This unambitious product, what is there to catch up with the Panda mobile phone? If it wants to catch up, it must also catch up with Motorola.

If the goal is not set higher, how can we have motivation. In the previous life, Nokia was able to surpass Motorola, so why can’t Aihua Electronics now?

Money is needed, and the design concept is still advanced. If Feng Yu's goal cannot be achieved, then Xu Lihua and the others will disappoint Feng Yu too much!

"This is enough. It is enough to ensure that we are both profitable and competitive. The next step is to prepare for the mass production of mobile phones and pagers. We must abandon all the business within three years. Our mobile phones will resound all over the world in the future!"
