Chapter 724 Grand Release of a New Generation of Machine Emperors

Only when he saw Cheng Li again did Wu Tao know what it means to be in good spirits on happy occasions.

The old boss in the previous life in front of him is actually younger and more energetic than when he first met him in the previous life.

"Oh, Mr. Wu, I've always wanted to treat you to a meal and express my affection, and today I finally got my wish."

Wu Tao let Cheng Li hold him with both hands, and felt that his situation was really ingenious. While expressing emotion, he did not idle and said: "Cheng Chu, even if you say please, it should be me who invites you..."

Cheng Li waved his hands again and again, followed by clasping together and saying, "Mr. Wu, don't make fun of me. If you hadn't mentioned my new business of 'short message', how would I be where I am today?"

"Cheng Chu is a talented person. It's too serious to say that." Wu Tao said with a smile, "Then let's sit down and talk?"

Cheng Li felt very comfortable with such a calm, non-conceited attitude, so much so that he didn't feel that Wu Tao turned his back on the guest during the conversation.

After the two parties were seated, the sweet waiter began to come over and serve cold dishes on the table.

It can be seen that Cheng Li has become more talkative after not seeing him for a while. From the business explosion caused by the short message service and the surge effect of the user base, to Yuanqi Technology's generous donation of 100 million yuan, he talked endlessly without pausing.

Wu Tao listened with a smile and never interrupted him.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Cheng Li's topic finally turned to Yuanqi Technology, and even the new Lotus machine.

Wu Tao was secretly satisfied that it was effortless to talk to such a smart person.

Because you don’t need to mention something in particular, he can always get to the point and get to the point in the end.

"Mr. Wu, I have absolute confidence in your Lotus mobile phone. Although it hasn't been released yet, I can assure you that the contract phone order from the telecom company will start at 3 million!"

Having said that, Cheng Li's mood of reciprocating the favor was finally expressed.

3 million contract phones does not sound like a lot, and it is not even worth the annual shipments of second- and third-tier mobile phone brands in later generations.

But in the current 1998, it is almost equivalent to the total number of users of China Unicom. Cheng Li being able to promise this number means that in the next year, the cooperation between Telecom and Yuanqi Technology will stabilize China Unicom.

But Wu Tao narrowed his eyes, and didn't respond right away.

Cheng Li was stunned, could it be that the number he promised did not meet Mr. Wu's expectation?

However, the senior executives of the telecommunications company expect the increase in the user base in 1998-99 to be 15 million. The 3 million contract phone orders have already accounted for one-fifth of the share, which is enough to kill other brands of mobile phones, especially the mobile phones of the three major foreign companies. product.

Besides, what he said didn't mean death, it just started at 3 million, and the upper limit can be discussed again.

Thinking like this, the sweat on Cheng Li's forehead began to drip down.

Wu Tao saw it clearly, put away his playful smile, and began to confess, "Director Cheng, frankly speaking, I'm not worried at all about the sales of new Lotus phones in mainland China!"

Sure enough, this reciprocation went to the wrong place, and Cheng Li became more and more trembling.

Immediately, Wu Tao changed the topic: "If Cheng Chu can vigorously promote the contract packages bound with Lotus mobile phones in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and some overseas branches, we will be more interested!"

It turned out that the ambush was here.

Cheng Li relaxed and began to think about the feasibility of this matter.

Of course, doable is absolutely doable. With the return of Hong Kong, the telecommunications company has just extended its business to Hong Kong and Macau, and its own market share there may not be able to bring much impetus to the promotion of Lotus mobile phones.

After thinking about it for a while, Cheng Li felt that he had to tell the truth.

As a result, when he said this bravely, Wu Tao didn't have the slightest objection to it.

When he came back to his senses and looked at Wu Tao's confident appearance, Cheng Li suddenly realized that if the other party could propose this idea, he might have already thought of the possibility he mentioned.

It's just that he couldn't imagine what kind of combination Wu Tao and Yuanqi Technology would fight in the next overseas market development.

After a meal, the guests and the host had a good time, and Wu Tao achieved his goal.

The price Cheng Li paid was even smaller than the contract machine order starting at 3 million yuan.

Two days later, Leng Ning insisted on returning to work from the hospital, and Ding Tiantian's endorsement commercial has also completed the pre-shooting and editing.

Inside Yuanqi Technology, the work surrounding the grand release of the new Lotus machine is slowly winding and tightening like a clockwork.

At the same time, the disputes surrounding Yuanqi Technology and Ericsson mobile phones have been raging, reaching an unprecedented level of heated discussions.

Ericsson has gained a large wave of fans by relying on the influence accumulated by many years of old brands and the status of the "victim" of the acquisition.

However, Yuanqi Technology has received a lot of ridicule and attention because of the release of seemingly unremarkable spy photos and its attitude of not responding to doubts.

It can be said that the media, domestic and foreign colleagues, and a large number of people who eat melons are waiting for the jokes at the Yuanqi Technology conference.

The third new product launch conference was still held at the Xuanwu Hotel.

There was no special arrangement for Yuanqi Technology. Except for the first two rows of seats, the scene was crowded with reporters from all walks of life.

By convention, the first row of the venue is the seats for representatives of industry peers.

Peter, the person in charge of Ericsson China, Smith from Motorola's Jinling branch, and Li Zhaoji, the representative of Nokia's Asia-Pacific region, were sitting there today.

Especially Ericsson representing Pete, his face is not very good-looking. Seeing that the second row was filled with foreign media reporters who arrived late, my heart moved and I made up my mind.

Once the new Lotus phone launched at the press conference has no new highlights compared with the spy photos, I immediately accept interviews from foreign reporters while the iron is hot, take advantage of the situation to clean up the name of Ericsson mobile phones, and then slap Yuanqi Technology in the face!

At nine o'clock, the press conference started on time.

Leng Ning, who was dressed in beige professional overalls, specially put on a pair of glasses. Under the spotlight, Leng Ning looked particularly intellectual and charming.

For today's press conference, she specially put on this lucky outfit, hoping to bring her good luck so that she can successfully complete the product promotion and release.

Even so, when he came to the stage, he still couldn't help being nervous when he saw the audience was full of seats.

After all, it was the first time for a big girl to get on the bridal sedan chair!

But looking back to the audience, his boss was sitting there carelessly, not even looking at him, as if he wasn't worried at all that he would mess up the press conference.

Could it be that the boss has confidence in himself?

Leng Ning took a deep breath, feeling a little calmer in his heart, and then a thought came to his mind, and he came to understand.

In fact, the boss is not confident in himself, but in the new Lotus machine!

I'm still a little selfish.

But after thinking about it this way, Leng Ning completely relaxed, and even the smile on her pretty face became much more natural.

"Guests from the industry, friends from the press, welcome to the launch event of Yuanqi Technology's new Lotus machine! I am Leng Ning, director of the product development department, and today I will show you the mysterious side of the new Lotus machine..."
