Lin Zheng repeatedly looked at the icq company customized version of the icq mobile phone in his hand.△￠

Although he designed this icq phone himself, this is the first time Lin Zheng has obtained the finished product.

Unlike the classic style of this era, this mobile phone, which is positioned as "Internet Social", adopts the first full keyboard design of this era... With the classic style of Blackberry, I'm sorry for myself... There is a yellow icq shortcut key on the lower right side of the keypad. Just press this shortcut key to automatically open the icq mobile software, which is very convenient.

This Japanese mblackberry phone uses a horizontal 2.2-inch black and white character dot matrix screen. In an era when almost all phones can only display two lines of 32 characters, this screen is an absolute "giant screen" and has a very powerful aura.

The mobile phone is a Japanese brand that is renamed Blackberry in a few years. However, considering that it is easy to change the name in the future, the current name of this mobile phone is Japanese mblackberry, Japanese "Blackberry".

As a mobile phone that is positioned in the Internet communication function, whether the input is fast and convenient is the key. Lin Zheng tried to edit a text message, which is very good and convenient. The design of the full keyboard makes English income a kind of enjoyment. Trying to open wi-fi, the connection speed is also very fast. Since it is a mobile phone that is positioned in the Internet communication function, how can it be without its own wi-fi function?

This icq phone also inadvertently created a history: a mobile phone with wi-fi function in the world.

Jim Bellsley, CEO of Rim, looked at his boss with a nervous look on his face. Rim Company has only launched a Rim Wireless Two-way Pager. When the boss talks about the design drawings of this phone to him, Jim Bellsley feels that he is happy just like a wild dog who has been hungry for three days suddenly encountering a large pot of fragrant meat bones. With years of experience in making life in the telecommunications circle, Jim Bellsley dares to use his wife to guarantee anyone that this phone will definitely be popular. The hot and hot type.

But now there is another premise: Is the designer the boss satisfied with the phone?

"Jim, how do users react to this product?" Lin Zheng, who was very satisfied with the phone after trying it out, put the phone aside and asked Jim Bellsley.

Seeing the boss' reaction, Jim Bellsley finally felt relieved and hurriedly said: "All users who have tried this phone like this product very much. They believe that the input method of the full keyboard is the biggest highlight. Among our survey subjects, more than 70% of the users said that they would buy one after the phone was launched."

Could it be a highlight? Full keyboard input is the signature of Blackberry. If the nine-grid input method is the most suitable for the people, then the full keyboard English input method is undoubtedly the most in line with the input habits of Europeans and Americans... No need to choose words, whatever you enter is what you enter.

"How many of them are IQ users?" Nodded, Lin Zheng continued to ask. This is the focus of Lin Zheng's attention. After all, it is a mobile phone with the main icq function.

"Basically all of them," Jim Bellsley couldn't help but grin: "Boss. You should know that now, from the age of 14 to 60, there are very few people who are not icq users..."

Lin Zheng patted his forehead and smiled: That's not true. Judging from the coverage of icq in the United States, it is not easy to find someone who is not an icq user at this age, especially among the student group. Each student has more than one icq account.

"By the way, boss. This is the two-way pager that you ordered to integrate the icq function," Jim Bellsley remembered another thing. He hurriedly took out a pager with a full keyboard from his pocket and placed it respectfully in front of Lin Zheng. "We have signed an agreement with the telecommunications company in Canada. Users who purchase this two-way pager only need to pay another $1.9 per month for the traffic package fee to use the icq function without restrictions."

"The traffic package fee of US$1.9 per month? Isn't it a bit expensive?" Lin Zheng was a little surprised: This price is not cheap.

Jim Bellsley smiled bitterly and said, "It's already very cheap. According to the telecommunications company's idea, they want to increase the monthly traffic fee to $5.9. We took a lot of effort and finally told them that if they don't agree, we will cooperate with telecom operators in the United States."

"Tsk..." Lin Zheng could only shake his head when he heard Jim Bellsley say this, but since Jim Bellsley has already done it, Lin Zheng was naturally too lazy to be troublesome and asked: "What about the price? Compared with the original version of 850, what changes are the price of this new Japanese m850?"

The functions of this customized version of the icq Japanese m850 SMS machine are very similar to those of the SMS machine launched in China. It has added an icq function to the Japanese m850 bidirectional pager. This new two-way pager also has a new number: Japanese m850 IQQ version.

The "Blackberry" mobile phone customized by icq is aimed at users who are already working and have a wealthy finances, while the icq version of the 850icq version is aimed at students with poor personal financial situation. Although the icq version cannot be used to make calls, the two-way paging function is very popular among students and some low-income groups. Now that the icq function has been added, Lin Zheng is very worried about whether users can afford it in terms of price.

"Don't worry, we have considered this issue," Jim Bellsley patted his chest and said proudly to Lin Zheng: "The price has not changed much from the old version of the Japanese m850. The price has only increased by $10. We have also added wi-fi function to this version of the Japanese m850 pager..."

Even the wi-fi function was added? This was a bit beyond Lin Zheng's expectations: "Thus, the cost has increased a lot, right?"

"It's increased a little," Jim Bellsley nodded: "In summary, the profit of the previous version of the M850 is 10 US dollars less than the profit of the previous version of the M850. However, I signed an agreement with Mr. Benier and the telecom operators. As long as the users are still using our products, we can get a part of the rebate from the telecom operators and IQ companies every month... This is the key point we value."

Sure enough, foreigners are all cunning! Lin Zheng also has to admire Jim Bellsley's brains. He even firmly believes that even if the Japanese m850icq version loses money, this guy is willing to sell: the money lost on the machine itself is made back from the telecom operators and the icq, and the machine loses money only once, but the rebates obtained from the telecom operators and the icq are available every month. As long as you are not a fool, you know that the cooperation method is more cost-effective. The most important thing is to spread the product as much as possible in the early stage.

Lin Zheng didn't ask the specific details of the cooperation, and he didn't need to know it. Instead, he was very satisfied with Jim Bellsley's handling method and nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I won't ask more. Can the finances hold on?"

Speaking of this, Jim Bellsley smiled and smiled happily, "No problem, the bankers have a sharp nose. As soon as we signed a cooperation agreement with IQ and telecom operators, several banks came to us to provide loans."

"The banker came to the door on his own initiative? It turned out to be a group of guys with a sharp nose than a dog!" Lin Zheng cursed, but he was in a good mood: "Did you borrow money from the bank?"

"That's not. The OEM factory is optimistic about the market prospects of our product. After signing a long-term cooperation agreement with them, the OEM factory is willing to charge a 20% fee for the first batch of 300,000 products, and then give the remaining 80% after the funds are recovered." Jim Bellsley smiled even more and more happy.

"Damn!" Lin Zheng could only express his feelings in this way about Jim Bellsley's experience: Why haven't I encountered such a good thing, brother?

Despite his feelings, since everything on the Japanese side was ready, Lin Zheng was relieved and waved his hand to Jim Bellsley and said, "I feel relieved if you have no problem here. Go back and be prepared. Jim, you should understand how important this opportunity is for Japanese side."

"Yeah!" Jim Bells nodded with force.

Of course he knew what this opportunity meant for Jim. Before that, Jim's share in the pager market was less than 3%, and his share in the mobile phone market was directly 0. If it weren't for the fact that Jim's largest shareholder was Lin Zheng, how could such a good thing fall on him?

A consensus has been reached within the Japanese M company. For Japanese M, this opportunity is the key to whether Japanese M can make a beautiful turnaround in the mobile phone and infinite paging market. The boss has set up such a beautiful stage for himself. If he can't make Japanese M famous in one go, he, as the CEO, should voluntarily resign and give in to the virtuous.

"In addition, I will go back to the previous supplementary agreement of 500,000 mobile phones and 500,000 pagers with the foundry. If the foundry is unwilling, I can provide financial guarantees here."
Chapter completed!
