The anti Chinese riots in Indonesia aroused great concern of the international community and strong indignation of Chinese groups all over the world. Protests and demonstrations took place one after another. The U.S. government also officially recognized the anti Chinese riots in other areas in Jakarta, Indonesia, on May 9 as a serious racial discrimination disaster, and officially decided to accept some "asylum" applications from Indonesian Chinese. In just a few days, Nearly 50000 Indonesian Chinese have been transferred to Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and other countries for temporary asylum.
On May 15, ye Zhenmin, on behalf of the Ministry of foreign trade and economic cooperation, visited Thailand for economic assistance cooperation. Sun Shangyi, Ge Mingjian, Guo Songyan, Chen Wencong and others accompanied him. They will arrange for representatives of Chinese businessmen from Indonesia and other Southeast Asian regions to meet Ye Zhenmin in Bangkok, Thailand.
Zhang Ke was neither accompanied nor in a hurry to leave Hong Kong.
For the first sale of Aida's new mobile phone i198 in Hong Kong on Saturday, May 16, the Hong Kong Branch prepared a grand event. Lu Qingsheng, vice president in charge of mobile communication of the group, made a special trip to Hong Kong to participate in the event. Naturally, Zhang Ke would not be stingy to stay in Hong Kong for two more days.
In early May, Lianxin and lianxun, two mobile phone companies under Huaxia electronics, successively launched four new mobile phones. Jinhu immediately officially launched the pre purchase and advertising of the new mobile phone i198 in Hong Kong.
In the past two weeks, the pre order sales of i198 in Hong Kong through the cooperative seller Fengze electric appliance exceeded 1000 units. This time, the Hong Kong branch held a grand first sale for the first batch of i198 mobile phone pre order users through Fengze electric appliance in the financial global central building in central.
The Hong Kong Branch carefully prepared a wonderful jazz band performance and fashion tasting reception to build momentum at the event site. Zhang Ke and Tang Jing rushed to the scene. Many pre order users to get IDA i198 for the first time have made the event site a little crowded. At the beginning of the event, it was not mentioned that Jiang Daier would come to the event site as a special guest, but Jiang Daier's arrival made the event site lively.
Zhang Ke and Tang Jing didn't join in the excitement. They had to say hello. Later, they had a chance to go to a table full of red and white wine, champagne and exquisite tea. Although the event site was a little crowded, it was not chaotic. After all, most of the white-collar and elite users who pre purchased IDA's new mobile phones through Fengze electric appliance in advance. Even if there were many Jiang Daier fans among the guests, they would not be particularly crazy.
Zhang Ke and Tang Jing each took a glass of red wine and happened to see sun Jingxiang standing in the corner talking to Jiang Wei. Tang Jing excitedly raised her hand and waved it over there. She didn't talk on the phone before and didn't know who she would meet here. Before going upstairs, Tang Jing threatened Zhang Ke: "if you see Xu Si, you'll let me bite."
Fortunately, Xu Si was delayed today. Zhang Ke didn't have to worry about being bitten by Tang Jing.
The Hong Kong Branch turned the first sale into a fashion tasting reception. In addition to the pre order users who have time to attend the event, it also invited some celebrities from the business, fashion and entertainment circles to build momentum for today's first sale. In the warm reception atmosphere deliberately created, there was not much sadness and anger about the anti Chinese riots in Indonesia. After all, normal life and business still have to go on.
Sun Jingxiang came over with Jiang Wei with a high foot glass holding a third of Yan's red wine in her hand, smiled and said in surprise, "but no one told me you would come to the scene..." and smiled and said, "ah, I can think of it."
"Fortunately, I didn't meet you in the restaurant. You were surprised to see that I would eat in person," Zhang Ke said after knowing that sun Jingxiang didn't attend today's event. Fortunately, Tang Jing and Xu Si had tacitly acknowledged each other's existence. He smiled and covered up the past, "I'm leaving Hong Kong tomorrow. There's no special place to spend my time. Just come here with Xiao Jing..."
As an invited guest, sun Jingxiang and Jiang Wei attended in full dress. Zhang Ke and Tang Jing dressed casually, just like the pre order users who came to pick up their mobile phones today.
"Century Huayin has a cash cow..." Zhang Ke looked at Jiang Daier, who was surrounded by fans and needed on-site security to maintain order, and said with a smile to sun Jingxiang.
Jiang Daier's first solo album "snow in the winter sea" Mixed with Mandarin and Cantonese songs, although it has a fairly good standard and could have been recognized by the market, the music market was highly competitive at the end of 1996. As a new comer, century Huayin has limited funds and insufficient experience in market publicity and packaging. Jiang Daier has not been able to make a hit, but can only lay a foundation for her future acting career A pretty good foundation..
Jiang dai'er has a bright and shining idol appearance, a tall figure, smart and personal eyes, a clear and distinctive voice, and good singing skills. How can she not be popular? In the second half of 1997, century Huayin, supported by family funds, had more options to buy excellent original music. Sun Jingxiang also made up her mind to bring Liang Sijun, Dai Wenqi and pan Xie Qing and other famous musicians in Hong Kong have joined century Huayin to expand the music business of century Huayin. The direction of planning for Jiang Daier's music career is also to focus on the whole Asian Chinese music market and give up Cantonese songs. Although it is only aimed at the Chinese music market in the future, there is no deliberate plan to take any route or deployment, constantly listening to and selecting songs, and sun Jingxiang even Jiang dai'er was allowed to participate in the creation of songs. During the recording, it was also made according to Jiang dai'er's mood at that time. As soon as the second album "obsession" with Jiang dai'er's strong personal style was launched, it received an excellent response in the Chinese music market. Jiang dai'er also made a complete transformation with this album and was no longer an advertising model in the impression of ordinary people.
Of course, century Huayin has also obtained excellent market returns.
When Zhang Ke said this, sun Jingxiang smiled, opened her exquisite CK Kun bag, took out the new mobile phone sold by Jinhu this time, raised it in her hand, said, "how can you get the money from this money tree?" and asked Tang Jing, "does he give you special treatment this time?"
"I'm not bored with that phone yet," Tang Jing said with a smile. Her phone was just for Zhang Ke to upgrade the software and hardware.
"I'm really envious. Sister Jiang gave me my mobile phone through the back door. Unfortunately, it's not unique," Sun Jingxiang smiled and put it away. "It's still embarrassing not to take it out..."
"Then let Jiang Wei never send a new mobile phone to sister sun again. Even if it can't be said to be unprecedented, it can be regarded as a peerless in a sense..." Zhang Ke said with a smile.
The mobile phone in sun Jingxiang's hand is a limited edition commemorative version of i198. The orange red mirror piano panel seems to be evaporated with a thin metal film. Compared with the new mobile phone sold normally, there are not many LED light sources under the number keys. When you turn on the mobile phone or answer the phone in the dim light, the two LED light sources of different colors will light up respectively and reflect with the blue screen, Dazzling and beautiful. As the LED light source consumes a lot of power, the limited edition i198 uses Toshiba's latest lithium polymer battery. The whole machine costs more than HK $10000. It is a work of Jinhu testing the water in the high-end mobile phone market in Hong Kong.
"Ah..." Jiang Wei suddenly chuckled and looked at the entrance with a strange look.
Zhang Ke looked sideways and saw Li Zaizhu and Li Xinyu's cousins standing near the entrance. Of course, Jiang Wei didn't know Li Xinyu, but Li Xinyu's happy look at Zhang Ke and the contradictory look that wanted to raise her hand to say hello made Jiang Wei see in her eyes. Naturally, she knew that the big boss had a very familiar relationship with the beautiful girl who appeared at the entrance.
Probably because she saw Tang Jing standing next to Zhang Ke, Li Xinyu restrained her surprised look when she first met her old friend. She only smiled when Zhang Ke turned his face and looked past. It was a peaceful smile between acquaintances.
Sun Jingxiang and Tang Jing stood with their backs to the entrance. Seeing only Li Xinyu's plain smile, they thought Jiang Weigang's smile was strange. They didn't know Li Xinyu, and thought Li Xinyu was greeting Jiang Wei.
"What's the matter? You know that girl? It's so beautiful. There are so many beautiful girls today that we seem to have withered sorrow," Sun Jingxiang joked. "Even if you know, don't introduce Zhang Ke!"
When sun Jingxiang said this, Tang Jing glanced at Zhang Ke, looked at Zhang Ke's mouth with a smile, and said, "look, he's excited."
"The man is a professional of Samsung in China. I didn't expect him to come here to join the fun in Hong Kong," Zhang Ke immediately changed a slightly weaker tone. "The girl is also Samsung..." it sounded like both a statement and a question.
Jiang Wei will not dismantle Zhang Ke's platform yet. She said, "there are several users who pre order in bulk today, which actually gives us a great discount on the pre order sales performance of the previous 1000 units. Before, she invited the personnel of Samsung's office in Hong Kong... And didn't expect them to send someone over. What a surprise."
Previously, new mobile phones were handed over to professional electronic media for evaluation, but other mobile phone manufacturers were also strictly restricted from contacting new mobile phones of Jinhu through this way. Enterprises such as SamSung that began to pay attention to Jinhu and regard Jinhu as competitors wanted to get the main products of Jinhu as soon as possible, and they could only get the new mobile phones at the first sale through pre purchase. Li Su's public appearance at the meeting was unexpected.
"Ah!" Sun Jingxiang suddenly realized. She heard Jingmeng say that Li Xinyu has a lot of beautiful girls these days. It's rare that Li Xinyu has such a beautiful and sexy figure. In particular, Li Xinyu's figure is so hot and his face gives people the feeling of extreme purity, which often leaves a deeper impression - in short, Zhang Ke will forget this face after seeing it, Of course, Zhang Ke is greedy for women, and his ideas can't be used as the standard of ordinary people.
Zhang Ke had several contacts with Li Xinyu in Beijing, Haizhou and Tokyo. Few people knew about it. Naturally, sun Jingxiang didn't know. She didn't think of going anywhere else. Pointing to Li Zaizhu and Li Xinyu, she asked Zhang Ke, "are they the people who clashed with you in Jianye last autumn?"
"Did you listen to Jing Meng?" Zhang Ke asked.
Sun Jingxiang chuckled and said, "when Jing Meng talked about it, I thought this girl was talking nonsense. If so," the smile was also strange.
"What did Jingmeng say?" Tang Jing asked curiously.
Sun Jingxiang whispered in Tang Jing's ear. Jiang Wei also leaned over to listen. Then the three women giggled.
Of course, Zhang Ke can guess that the three women are talking about Li Xinyu's temptation. He turns around and picks up a glass of white wine from the table. He thinks it's better not to say hello to Li Xinyu in front of these women.
Although Jinhu and Samsung have begun to fight openly and secretly in the domestic market, and Zhang Ke and Li Zaizhu still have some small grievances, the communication at the company level is hypocritical and perfunctory. Lu Qingsheng and Lai Jichun have greeted Li Zaizhu and Li Xinyu who have just entered the site, and Jiang Wei also walked over with a wine glass.
Due to its sale in the Hong Kong market, the publicity of the new mobile phone did not emphasize that i198 is the only all Chinese supporting mobile phone that appeared in the market at present. Only the evaluation reports of some professional media have mentioned the all Chinese input function of Lianhe i198. It not only supports Chinese display, but also develops digital disk Chinese input. The mobile phone also has Chinese short message function - mobile phones that support Chinese input have not been sold in the domestic market, and Telecom's short message service has not been paid attention at all.
The main market of i198 is still in China. For those mobile phone manufacturers who regard Jinhu as a competitor, they are most concerned about the digital key Chinese input technology developed by Jinhu this time.
Li Zaizhu exchanged greetings with Lu Qingsheng, and looked at Zhang Ke standing in the distance. He never thought that Jinhu would be the first to develop a commercial digital Chinese input technology.
In 1994, Ericsson took the lead in launching mobile phones with Chinese display technology in the Chinese market, which was a great success. Last year, it even pulled Motorola down from the altar where the Chinese market share once reached 90%. This seems to show that the degree of support for Chinese determines the adaptability of products to the Chinese market to a certain extent.
Domestic mobile phone companies without technical strength are all right. Many overseas mobile phone manufacturers have been planning to launch all Chinese digital mobile phones with Chinese input function in the Chinese market. Samsung also wants to transplant digital key Chinese input technology on new mobile phones introduced to the mainland market.
On the one hand, the short message service operated by China Mobile is not paid much attention at present, and the market demand for digital key Chinese input technology is not particularly urgent. On the other hand, several overseas companies that master digital key Chinese input technology offer high prices. Although overseas mobile phone manufacturers have plans, they have not taken immediate action. It was not until early May that Hong Kong's telecommunications media weekly published an evaluation report on the upcoming IDA i198 mobile phone of Jinhu that these overseas mobile phone manufacturers suddenly woke up: such a technology of great significance to the Chinese market let Jinhu break through first!
However, the Hong Kong market does not pay much attention to the digital key Chinese input technology, and there are only a few references in the evaluation report. Overseas manufacturers who do not have access to the new model of Jinhu naturally do not know what level Jinhu technology has reached. Their current response can only negotiate with an American company and a Canadian company with this technology, On the one hand, we can only conduct a special evaluation on the technology mastered by Jinhu after it launches a new mobile phone.
Hg domestic mobile communication adopts CDMA network. The digital mobile phone technology mastered by Samsung does not adapt to China's mobile communication network. It can be said that Samsung's current mobile phone technology can only be regarded as second-class in the Chinese market.
From Aida i19 mobile phone, Li Zaizhu saw the characteristics of Jinhu's mobile phone business, attached importance to market development and made maximum use of product design to make up for the shortcomings of core technology. This is precisely the main strategy of Samsung's intention to open China's mobile phone market. How can Li Zaizhu relax his attention to Jinhu's mobile phone business?
Li Zaizhu came to Hong Kong for the first sale of Aida i198 mobile phone. He wanted to get the first-hand information of Aida i198 mobile phone. Because Jinhu has transplanted the digital key Chinese input technology on the i198 mobile phone, Samsung had to change its plan to launch the mobile phone in the Chinese market. It's not just Samsung. Motorola, Ericsson, Philips and other companies have to change their plans to launch new mobile phones in the Chinese market. At least they should give top priority to launching all Chinese supported mobile phones, which doesn't mean they can be launched if they want to.
Except that the Chinese input technology of digital keys, which is most valued by competitors, is deliberately covered up, the other performances of IDA i198 mobile phone are evaluated in detail by professional media in order to cooperate with advertising, and Li Zaizhu can also collect detailed information.
I198 can be said to be a powerful upgraded version of i19. It inherits the simple and elegant straight shape of i19, but modifies the original slightly sharp details more roundly, with a fuller blue screen display and more pleasant chord music. The biggest change is that the original i19 mobile phone sacrificed many functions to ensure the lightness and simplicity of the whole machine. After half a year, the i198 mobile phone shows that Jinhu has completely digested the digital mobile phone technology inherited from Deyi, and even has made great progress.
There is a product experience area at the event site. There are model ladies wearing leather clothes and revealing large areas of snow-white skin to demonstrate the mobile phone function of i198 to users in the product experience area. Of course, Samsung's Hong Kong office has pre purchased i198 mobile phones, but Li Zaizhu can't test the Chinese input performance of i198 here. The model lady in the experience area demonstrates Chinese input, pauses the greetings with Jiang Wei, Lu Qingsheng and others, and pays attention to the product experience area.
Li Zaizhu didn't want to see the result. His eyes can feel that the user experience performance of Jinhu's Chinese input technology is much better than the two companies he contacted. Sure enough, the Chinese people have natural advantages in developing Chinese input technology.
At this time, Li zaixu was faced with a difficult choice: how to talk about technology introduction with Jinhu?
