Chapter 993 From a Three-Legged Alliance to a Single Rider

The Lotus Phone X series that was actually launched to the market finally abandoned the immature touch screen design.

But the Palm multitasking system with its streamlined kernel structure perfectly makes up for this.

At the new product launch conference hosted by Leng Ning personally, mobile phones have transformed from a traditional single communication tool to a multi-functional system with rich applications.

This is a useful attempt, and Yuanqi Technology defines it as a smart machine!

The multi-tasking functions integrated into the Palm system are mostly set up for business people. But the two functions of taking pictures and music have universal applicability.

In addition, the campus chat plug-in that can connect to the Internet through 2.5G network allows mobile phone users to experience the feeling of surfing the Internet for the first time.

Overall, all app features are rudimentary.

But it is still a useful attempt!

When the streamlined Lotus Phone

In fact, it is somewhat regrettable that although Wu Tao proposed the concept of camera phones very early, Lotus Phone X was not the first camera phone to be released.

As early as February, Japan's Sharp teamed up with mobile operators to launch the first J-SH04 with built-in 110,000 pixels in China. However, because its influence was limited to Japan, the concept of camera phones was eclipsed. Lotus robbed it.

However, compared to Sharp's 110,000 pixels, Lotus's first camera phone was positioned at 200,000 pixels.

This is already the limit that Japan's technology can currently achieve.

The color screen technology has become increasingly mature after two generations of machines.

Although the 200,000-pixel camera produced unsatisfactory photos, at Wu Tao's request, a simple and efficient interpolation algorithm was implemented through the Palm multi-tasking system to make up for this shortcoming.

As a result, even if it cannot be compared with the 6-year-old Nokia E71 in terms of various hard conditions, the comprehensiveness and freshness of functions make the entire Lotus Phone X series particularly eye-catching.

After Yuanqi Technology's product launch conference, that evening, Jinling Evening News and Yangtze Evening News published huge advertisements for the Lotus Phone X series on large pages.

At the same time, foreign language advertisements featuring Ding Tiantian were simultaneously released and broadcast on foreign media.

The advertising situation is overwhelming.

User response has also gone from overwhelming doubts, denunciations and even disappointment before the product was released, to a stunning, unparalleled, all-around miracle machine overnight!

Although there are still experts in newspapers and media seriously analyzing how useless the 200-megapixel camera is, it still does not prevent many girls from considering the Lotus Phone X series as their dream love gift.

In their opinion, having a mobile phone that can record their beautiful photos anytime and anywhere is more important than anything else.

After a few days, Yuanqi Technology's marketing department entered a new round of overtime work.

The company's hotline was flooded with calls, and even the first round of online orders encountered unprecedented traffic impact. On the contrary, the sales channels through Yuantong Logistics seemed orderly and step-by-step.

Even so, massive demand from multiple channels instantly exploded Yuanqi Technology's order volume.

Qihua Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., which has experienced several production capacity expansions, had to adjust its shift plan and temporarily implemented a three-shift system to fully utilize the production capacity of all production lines to meet the explosive order volume of the Lotus Phone X series.

The overwhelming orders and soaring shipments have made all previous doubts disappear.

Such a blockbuster result caught Nokia and Motorola by surprise.

Nokia's executive officer, Jorma Ollila, held an emergency management meeting to discuss countermeasures. But after listening to the analysis of the company's technical department, we can only do nothing.

Because in their eyes, the new Lotus Phone X series is not the trial and integration of one or two new features, but the unified and organic integration of many technologically forward-looking functions.

This requires considerable technical reserves and program design, which cannot be caught up by imitating others.

In the end, Jorma Ollila had to admit that Yuanqi Technology's current mobile phone research and development level has surpassed the level of its peers for an entire era.

The era of smart phones may have arrived early because of the early unveiling of Yuanqi Technology!

Motorola's board of directors is no better.

After emergency consultations, Christoph had to come up with the design plan originally planned to be used in 2 years and launched the first screw-top mobile phone ahead of schedule.

However, the novelty in styling has been difficult to subvert end users’ desire for mobile phone functions.

As for giants such as Siemens, Alcatel, Sharp, and Samsung, they have increased investment and penetration in the mobile phone field.

For a time, the global mobile phone market showed a wonderful situation with Lotus taking the lead, Motorola and Nokia competing, and other brands vying for the top spot.

By the time New Year's Day arrived in 2001, the global market share of Lotus mobile phones had exceeded 50%, and it was still rising slowly.

In an era when it coexists with the powerful Nokia giant, it is not easy for Yuanqi Technology to achieve this step.

On New Year's Day in Jinling, there was a moderate snowfall.

In Villa No. 2 of Royal Garden, it is still as warm as spring. In the spacious and hollow living room above, everyone was playing with a Lotus Phone X1 while listening to the famous star Ding Tiantian talk about her adventure experiences in Hong Kong in the past few months.

Wu Tao leaned his head against Zhao Li and listened, feeling that he no longer agreed with the film and TV drama market in Xiangjiang.

At least in the current Hong Kong film and TV drama market, there is no room for improvement for actresses like Ding Tiantian.

On the contrary, it is better to maintain this kind of musical cooperation, and it is better to have less than too much.

The door of the villa opened, and An Rong came back with a head full of snowflakes.

Wu Tao immediately stood up and went over to help her unload the dusty clothes and said: "It's so difficult to get to the capital market, why are you so busy that you're back now?"

An Rong said hello to everyone, occupied the seat where Wu Tao was sitting, and let Wu Tao sit next to her and said, "Do you think it's your Lotus Phone X? Distributors all over the place are rushing to get it?"

"...To tell you the truth, Tianan Computer's total sales for the first half of the year can't even keep up with the market growth of your Lotus Phone this time!"

Shi Qianmei said very knowledgeable: "Rongrong, in fact, your Tianan Computer is developing very fast! Apart from you, which other manufacturer's brand of computers can reach 20% of the market share in just half a year?"

Wu Tao laughed and said, "Sister Mei, your Qian Huimei down jacket is also a famous brand. So, everyone has done well this year, and we will strive to do even better next year!"
