Rebirth of the Cyber ​​Hegemony

But now that the general environment is like this, it is a bit difficult to set up your own brand store all at once.

Completely independent operation, the investment is too scary, and it is done one by one, and the speed is very slow.

Although Huanyu Technology has money now, it is impossible to invest all the money in sales channels.

If so, is it not a Lenovo?

Chen Yu had to reserve a considerable amount of funds for product development and processing.

In addition, you have to save money to build the entire ecosystem.

Money is needed in all aspects, so Chen Yu can't help being willful.

After pressing his head, Chen Yu had some headaches.

"Xiaoyu, come over to have hot pot together tonight."

"Dad, are you back?"

"Well, I've been on a business trip recently, and I just came back today."

"Okay, I'll come to the store tonight."

Suddenly received a call from his father Chen Simian, and at night Chen Yu drove to the store alone.

"Wow, Dad, your outfit looks like a successful person."

As soon as he entered the store, he saw his father, Chen Simian, in a suit and leather shoes, and Chen Yu said in a loud voice.

"Come on, I just came back from a business trip and I'm too lazy to change."

Chen Simian glared at Chen Yu: "Besides, I'm already an old man, not a successful person."

"You can't say that, Dad, you are always strong. Besides, you are only a little bit 50, which is the rising period of your career. By the way, Dad, how many stores have you opened now?"

"17."

"17, wow, so many, it seems that you don't have so much money here."

Although hot pot Xishi makes money, it is impossible to open so many stores at once.

Every hot pot restaurant has to invest millions, and 17 restaurants cost tens of millions.

With so much money, the hot pot Xishi is not listed, and it has not raised much money. How can there be so much money.

"Some are our own, and some are franchises. However, the model is not the model of the snail Xishi before. Although the partners are franchises, they have no management rights, and everything has to be managed by our headquarters."

"Dad, I also have the idea of ​​joining a store recently, please help me refer."

Although Dad opened the hot pot restaurant under his own guidance, after a few years, Chen Simian has become more and more skilled.

As for joining, Chen Simian was endlessly shopping, telling Chen Yu the skills of joining and the points that need to be paid attention to.

"Xiaoyu, according to what you just said, I don't think your mobile phone franchise model can be applied to our hot pot Xishi?"

"why?"

"Because hotpot Xishi has a set of norms and standards, as long as it is operated according to this method, it is not allowed to give random instructions to others. But it is not good for selling mobile phones. Different places sell mobile phones, and it is still retail. He has no specific standards, so the whole store's For management, it must be handed over to franchisees. Think about it, those who can join your mobile phone store are probably local snakes, they have some money, connections, and power, which is good for selling mobile phones."

"But the problem is that if they join, they will invest a lot. I am worried that they will not be able to make up their minds."

Now is not the time when mobile phone stores are so hot in later generations.

Many people still don't realize what profit mobile phone stores have.

Of course, if only a few dozen such franchises are considered, then there is no problem.

Furthermore, if there are only a few dozen stores, why do you want to join in? Chen Yu can do it himself.

Mobile phone sales are not the same as hot pot Xi Shi.

Hot pot Xishi only needs one store in a city.

Even a prefecture-level city only needs one family.

But mobile phone stores must be densely populated.

Of course, there are those who take the initiative to join here, but there must be a lot of people who can't make up their minds.

"It's also simple, Xiaoyu. At the beginning, your main purpose is to expand the scale, so you can adopt a more flexible model. For example, their franchise fee can be refunded after a few years. Or, there is no franchise fee, just You can take as much goods as you want at one time. In addition, they can also provide them with a certain decoration subsidy when they are decorating. However, you have to unify the style of decoration, and you must be responsible for the decoration. This will affect the appearance of the company, and... ..."

After flipping through the conversation, Chen Yu suddenly understood.

"Dad, tall, really tall."

Chen Yu gave Chen Simian a thumbs up.

The problem that had been a headache before, I didn't expect to hear my father's words, but it was completely solved.

"How tall is it, come here, come and eat vegetables."

It was rare to be praised so much by Chen Yu, and Chen Simian felt a little embarrassed.

Zhang Wenxiu laughed out loud, knowing her husband's personality, and said, "Xiaoyu, you see that you make your father happy, like a child."

"What a kid, I'm also studying hard, okay, I can't hold my son back."

"Yes, yes, we can't hold back our son. Son, you have to work hard too, don't be overtaken by your father."

"Necessary, son must work hard. However, if dad surpasses me, then I can be a rich second generation with peace of mind."

"Rich second generation, this is not allowed. Xiaoyu, you can't have the thoughts of rich second generation, rich second generation is too comfortable, not thinking about making progress, or..."

"Mom, you are right."

The family was happy and harmonious, and the family dinner did not end until 12 o'clock in the evening.

Chapter 595: The Hidden Benefits of Huanyu Mobile Phone

Under Chen Simian's guidance, the business of the mobile phone franchise store has progressed relatively smoothly.

After Huanyu Technology announced a series of franchise standards, many partners from various regions of the country expressed their interest.In particular, the decoration can be subsidized, and the deposit can be directly purchased, etc. It makes many partners less worried.In addition, Huanyu Technology has performed very well recently, and its brand has been rising steadily.If you choose to join the Huanyu brand at this time, the future market potential is also very huge.

In addition, Zhou Yifei also did a good job in the authorization of dual card dual standby.

Especially when it comes to licensing fees.

At that time, Chen Yu's idea was to authorize the licensing fees to major mobile phone manufacturers based on the annual amount.

In this way, as long as the major mobile phone manufacturers pay a sum of money every year, they can use the patent of dual card dual standby.

But Zhou Yifei believes that such an authorization once a year is not flexible.

Some enterprises are large, so they naturally don't think much about licensing fees.

However, for some small enterprises, there are certain difficulties in this authorization fee.

In addition, if Huanyu Technology wants to build an ecology, it should allow more companies to participate.

Instead of taking a fee every year, it is better to settle according to the sales volume of mobile phones.

That is to say, every time one is sold, a patent fee of 1 yuan will be taken.

According to this algorithm, some small and medium-sized mobile phone manufacturers are also willing to pay this fee.

At the same time, Zhou Yifei also considered that in order to prevent some other mobile phone manufacturers from developing their own dual-card dual-standby technology, for these mobile phone manufacturers, Universal Technology can also use 10-year or 20-year long-term authorization for settlement.

In short, what Huanyu Technology has to consider is to make them feel that it is more economical to directly purchase other people's patents than to develop their own technology.

After all, compared with others, the investment in R&D in this area is often much larger than that in marketing.

"Mr. Chen, this is a patent licensing contract signed with major mobile phone manufacturers."

Zhou Yifei packed the signed contract and put it on Chen Yu's desk.

Chen Yu took a look and found that there were more than 30 copies.

"So much."

"It's still a small number. Many micro-enterprise mobile phone manufacturers have not signed. Of course, they will still use our technology patents."

Now that the authorization has been issued, the patent will not be protected, and some mobile phone manufacturers will infringe upon it.

Fortunately, the big mobile phone manufacturers say that they will not do this.

But some small machine manufacturers or micro mobile phone manufacturers don't care so much.

For this, Chen Yu didn't care about it: "It's okay, if some small mobile phone manufacturers want to use our patents, let them use them."

As long as these companies use more patents of Universal Technology, the more sound the ecology of Universal Technology will be.

Chen Yu was not going to sue them either.

Of course, Chen Yu naturally has the right to sue them.

Speaking of which, the dual-card dual-standby patent in the previous life is also China's leading.

It's just a pity that Coolpad, which was the first to develop the dual-card dual-standby technology at that time, decided to disclose the patent for free.

Although this kind of free disclosure quickly made the dual-card dual-standby technology popular.

But Coolpad didn't get much benefit from it.

Chen Yu doesn't know how to learn Coolpad.

On the one hand, he needs dual card dual standby to build his own ecosystem.

At the same time, he also has to use his dual-card dual-standby patent to build his own patent barriers.

As long as you hold this series of patents in your hands, even when you fight with a series of international giants in the future, you will have various transaction conditions.

"President Chen, there is one more question."

"what is the problem?"

"Our dual-card dual-standby patent has been licensed, which may bring a lot of pressure on the sales of our Universal mobile phones. It can be predicted that Lenovo, Bird, and even some other mobile phone manufacturers will develop in a short period of time. They will release their dual-card dual-standby mobile phones. Even, they will cooperate with China Mobile and China Unicom.”

Because of the lessons learned from the last contract phone, this time China Unicom and Universal Technology signed a contract is no longer exclusive.

Now that it is no longer exclusive, Huanyu mobile phone will naturally have to face all mid-range mobile phone competition.

The mid-range phones have always been the most competitive in China.

Among them are not only domestic giants like Lenovo Bird, but also global giants like Nokia, Motorola, Siemens, Sony, and Ericsson.

"Yifei, don't worry, it's not like you don't know that our Huanyu Technology doesn't only have dual cards and dual standby."

Chen Yu was relatively calm.

If there is only the innovation of dual card dual standby, how can Chen Yu authorize this patent.

If you want to enter the mid-range machine market, if you don't have a certain means, how can you do it.

Dual card dual standby is just one of the points.

In Huanyu mobile phone, there are a series of hidden benefits waiting for everyone to discover.

For example, one of the hidden benefits is the mobile version of YY.

It should be said that the mobile version of YY has always been available.

But before the mobile version of YY has been cooperating with China Mobile's Monternet.

It is said to be the mobile version, but it is actually the mobile web version of YY.

Before that, if you want to use YY on your mobile phone, you must first enter a mobile web page interface.

Although YY can also be used in this way, the functions of the web version are somewhat limited.

Furthermore, in addition to functional limitations, the web version of YY is relatively rough, not refined, and not beautiful.

This is not to say that Universal Technology does not have this production technology.

It is really a mobile webpage, because various conditions in the webpage are restricted.

To really create a beautiful mobile phone YY version, it is necessary to install the mobile client in the mobile phone.

In other words, the user first needs to download an installation package.

Just like when a smartphone wants to log in to a certain software, it first downloads an APP software installation package.

For the convenience of users and to save user traffic, Huanyu mobile phone has built-in YY client in the mobile phone before installation.

However, in order to confuse other mobile phone manufacturers, the effect of the temporary built-in version is still similar to that of the web page.

But as long as a group of mobile phone manufacturers start to compete with themselves, then the YY client in Huanyu mobile phone will immediately receive the company's order to update the product.
