Chapter 1679: An Outrageously Expensive Cell Phone
People who enter the store stare at the mobile phones placed in the glass columns in the middle of the store.
The metal and leather casing is larger than a business card case and has a very attractive sense of technology.
"Is this expensive?"
"It's very expensive, worth about NT$20 million."
This price really shocked many customers who entered the store.
The clerk began to introduce: "This is the world's first flip phone. It has a large 3.7-inch screen and a high-end LCD color screen. It has dozens of functions such as phone book, memo, etc. It uses the new CDMA950 network.
Can receive many customized messages."
The clerk took out one: "For example, weather forecast, stock market information, etc., and using the data cable we delivered, you can temporarily store some computer files on your phone, and at the same time, you can open Xiaoxing's unique simple text editing format.
"
The price of NT$20 million scares many people.
The clerk took out another ordinary one: "This one only costs 1.5 million yuan. It has basic communication functions, phone book, calculator and other basic functions. The screen is only one inch."
The difference is so huge.
Who would buy expensive ones?
With 20 million yuan, you can buy a very high-end Xia domestically produced Dagui series family car.
Such an expensive price is just for a mobile phone.
It is so luxurious that no one dares to have the impulse to spend.
Ordinary people don't have it, which doesn't mean that many executives of Nanbang don't have it. Such a mobile phone is a status symbol for them.
Especially the top models with gold plating and crocodile leather shells have very good sales.
At the same time, there is also a chrome-plated metal mobile phone with full technology and a beautiful sliding cover. It only costs more than 2 million yuan, but it is the choice of ordinary people and white-collar workers in most companies.
The cheapest one is too ugly.
Xia Kingdom, the imperial capital.
Sales have also begun, but they are very low-key. The most expensive one is about 3,200 yuan in Xia Guo coins, and the cheapest one is only a little over 1,000 yuan.
There isn't a lot of publicity, and there aren't many stores.
Because, there is not enough network.
After leaving several big cities, my cell phone had no signal at all.
Therefore, what Xia Guo mainly recommends is actually the second generation of Ringling Spirit, which is the second generation Ringling Spirit that has upgraded the original technology and can send text messages, add phone book and calculator functions.
What about the signal...
Still as bad as ever.
Western continent.
King Kong Indestructible Company, when their time here reached morning, a fax from Nanbang was also sent.
There is a detailed introduction to the new mobile phone above.
There is also a photo.
In the headquarters of the Indestructible King Kong Company, a group of people were sitting around the conference table.
"Have you ever tested that phone?"
"There is no way to conduct in-depth testing, and there is no equipment. The information obtained now is amazing. No one has ever thought that a chip will be installed in a mobile phone. Preliminary calculations indicate that the chip has a speed of about 16 Hz and is equipped with flash memory.
, and memory."
Upon hearing this answer, the indestructible CEO took out a mobile phone and put it on the table.
This is the new model they plan to grandly launch on the market next year, the Indestructible 1011 mobile phone, which is the first digital mobile phone under the Gs network.
Apart from making phone calls, the other functions of this mobile phone are of little significance.
In other words, it is completely meaningless.
The person in charge of the report continued: "We also found that Xiaoxing's new mobile phone has a function that can connect to the Internet. It has a download speed of about 36K and can accept emails with attachments. Only the latest
I have the two expensive ones, but I don’t have the other styles.”
Very expensive.
Twenty million South Korean dollars.
In the Western continent, it would cost more than 10,000 New Zealand dollars.
The price, for a mobile phone, is already an extremely luxurious price.
The president of the Indestructible King Kong Company asked: "How are sales?"
"It's very high. Most ordinary mobile phones have mini-game functions, which are very practical. But this kind of high-end mobile phone is not designed for ordinary users. It's hard to evaluate this mobile phone, but some people do buy it."
At this time, a call came in.
Someone picked it up and immediately said: "The top-notch mobile phones have a small card that can be taken out. No, there are two, and there is an empty card slot. No, no, there are four card slots, and there are two more.
Inside the machine."
"The one with the card has eight contact points. After a simple test, it is an identification card. This turns our built-in identification account into a way to freely change mobile phones."
As the report is being made here, someone is going to patent it.
Sure enough, there is a patent, and it is described in three languages. In Xia Mandarin, it is the user identification module, and in beautiful Mandarin, it is the SIM card.
And there are hundreds of patents around this.
What's more, the GSM patent is in the hands of King Kong Indestructible Company, but the GSM card patent has been registered, and there are also patents related to SIM card identification.
As for the communication effect.
The president of the Indestructible King Kong Company didn't ask at all.
Compared with CDMA in terms of communication performance, GSM is not even inferior to CDMA. In addition, the idea of building an ultra-micro chip into a mobile phone is something that the Indestructible Company has never even thought about.
The president of the Indestructible King Kong Company looked at his watch. It was almost noon: "Well, please pay attention. I have an appointment with someone important."
Others in the company continued research.
Half an hour later, a high-end restaurant.
The president of the Indestructible King Kong Company met at the door one of the people he was going to meet this time, a communication service provider from the Ice and Snow Kingdom.
As soon as they met, the president of the Indestructible King Kong Company asked: "Does your Ice and Snow Kingdom plan to give up GSM?"
"No."
"You are taking the latest mobile phone launched by Xiaoxing Consortium. I really don't understand it. There is no new product release, no large-scale publicity, and even no advertisements in advance. It is just launched on the market. It is completely inconsistent with business operations.
Go the normal way."
The person holding the mobile phone said: "This one is just a gift. It uses a small chip as big as a fingernail to burn the identification code in the original mobile phone. It can be used for incoming calls. When I went to the Eastern Continent, this one
Only then will the charm of the mobile phone be truly revealed. Unfortunately, the GSM you are about to turn on does not have the ability to match this mobile phone."
"The plain text email function of 300 letters requires a wireless network to support it."
"Of course, if it is free, our Ice and Snow Kingdom joins the GSM network. It would be a great pity if there is a fee."
The expression on the president of the Indestructible King Kong Company did not change much, he just nodded silently.
This time, it was too sudden.
Why is there no new product launch and why is there no advertising before?
