Chapter 1125 African Version of Bluebird Five Generations
Chen Changliu had anticipated the sensation caused by the fifth generation of Bluebird.
The fifth generation of Bluebird is positioned as a flagship mobile phone for fashionable photography. Since the first generation was launched, the consumer group cultivated is mainly fashionable young people, so it is conceivable what effect the fifth generation with real-time beauty function can achieve.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, in the meeting room of Zhonghuajia, all the executives at home were present, and Chen Changliu was no exception.
The reason why all the executives above the deputy general manager of the business group were in the meeting room was not because Chen Changliu was going to hold an executive meeting to arrange work.
It was because they wanted to watch the launch of the fifth generation of Bluebird in Africa.
Yes, Bluebird has been sold in Africa since it appeared, but there has never been a formal product launch conference there.
However, with the continuous improvement of mobile communication infrastructure in Africa, people have higher demands for communication equipment.
Zhonghuajia's high-end mobile phones have an annual growth rate of 15% in Africa, and since the emergence of smartphones last year, Zhonghuajia's smartphones have been unique in Africa.
According to the survey report that Chen Changliu asked Zhou Xing, general manager of the African branch, to prepare, the stock of high-end mobile phones in Africa in 2009 should be 3 to 5 million units.
Moreover, Chen Changliu remembered that no matter how backward Africa was in the next 10 years, the annual sales of high-end smartphones continued to rise, eventually reaching around 20 million units.
He remembered reading a report that although Samsung was defeated by the king of mobile phones in Africa, it was mainly low-end mobile phones.
Samsung's annual sales of mid-to-high-end mobile phones were at least 10 million units.
And the smartphones of the Flower Planting Family were already unique last year, so Chen Changliu could not give up his market share to others.
Yes, Chen Changliu felt that those were his market shares, and this time the African version of the Bluebird 5th Generation was even more powerful.
Because the Bluebird 5th Generation was equipped with an algorithm that allowed Africans to clearly capture their own appearance in mobile phone photos for the first time.
Don't think it's simple just because any mobile phone in the future can do it.
Well, it's not too difficult. In fact, since the Flower Planting Family entered the African market, it has been constantly researching and improving.
A lot of effort has been invested in collecting tens of thousands of photos of black people in Africa, and researching functions such as contour focus and exposure compensation for dark-skinned faces.
Through positioning through eyes and teeth, the skin color of black people is optimized exclusively, which greatly improves the photo-taking experience of black users.
This function will only appear in a few years in the previous life.
The difference between the fifth generation of Bluebird launched this time and the domestic version is the difference in algorithm, which solves the skin color problem encountered by black users when taking pictures.
So that they can also get satisfactory shooting effects, thereby helping the flower-growing mobile phone to gain a greater competitive advantage in the African market.
So there was this African launch conference of the fifth generation of Bluebird held in Nigeria.
On the current conference room projection screen, the large grid in the middle is the African launch site, and the small grids on both sides are the main product launch broadcast viewing data of countries such as South Africa and Kenya.
Well, it is Kenya. Many people think that Kenya is poor.
Yes, it is poor, but Chen Changliu knows that Kenya will be the most developed economy in East Africa in the future, and it is also one of the countries with a large middle class in Africa.
In fact, there are already some clues now, which can be seen from its stable GDP growth.
From 2000 to 2008, the average annual GDP growth rate was 6%, while the average of neighboring countries was 3.7%.
It will take a few years to get rid of the status of a low-income country and become a lower-middle-income country.
And our Eastern country just entered the lower-middle-income country 10 years ago.
You should know that 10 years ago, the Eastern country had nearly 70 million Bp machine users, and many of them were priced at more than 1,000 yuan.
So from the data calculation, even in Kenya now, your market stock of high-end mobile phones is no problem.
From the perspective of economic structure, Kenya’s reasonable and good economic structure and political stability also determine the development of this country, and flower growers cannot ignore it.
Kenya is the most industrially developed country in East Africa, with complete power, transportation, and communication infrastructure.
The service industry has developed rapidly and surpassed agriculture to become a pillar industry, accounting for 47.5% of GDP. The development of service industries such as finance, insurance, construction and education has provided a large number of high-income jobs, attracted talents to enter, and promoted the growth of the middle class.
Kenya has a relatively complete education system and is the country with the highest literacy rate in East Africa. The capital Nairobi has the highest literacy rate in the country, at 87.1%.
The high penetration rate of basic education provides good educational opportunities for young people and cultivates a large number of knowledgeable and skilled talents. After graduation, these people can enter various industries to obtain relatively high incomes and become an important part of the middle class.
Kenya is also one of the countries where Zhonghuajia invested in building factories.
During the entire product launch, the small grid of the Zhonghuajia conference room projection screen deliberately added the perspective of the audience.
So when explaining the photo-taking link, those who came to watch on the scene all showed stunned and amazed expressions, and then excitement.
The excited expression on everyone's face doesn't look fake at all. If this is acting, then it can only be said that all the members are the best actors.
"Boss, it seems that African brothers love this feature!
This will definitely become the most eye-catching selling point of our Qingniu 5th generation!"
Huang Zhang's words attracted unanimous approval from all executives on the scene. In this way, the sales volume of high-end mobile phones in Africa this year will definitely have beautiful data.
Chen Changliu understood the mentality of the executives, and he did not intend to knock them and make them humble.
After all, if it works, it works, and if it doesn't, it doesn't. It's useless to be humble when it doesn't work.
"Well, that's right, Bo Ge, Huang Zhang, notify the staff of the African research department. If this camera technology becomes the reason for the explosion of Qingniu 5th generation this year, as long as Qingniao 5th generation can sell 3 million units in Africa, I will fly over to celebrate for them personally."
"Pa Pa Pa"
Warm applause rang out in the conference room. Wu Bo and Huang Zhang blushed and kept thanking them. This was the greatest recognition of their R&D work.
You should know that Chen Changliu has never flown over to celebrate for a department. Just look at the envious expressions on the faces of people in other business departments.
