Back To 1995

   Chapter 443 Find the Difference

  Alcatel mobile phones have little influence in America, at least they are well-known among ordinary users, lower than other brands, and they were mainly in Europe before.

   That is, at the Super Bowl, the advertisements released by Alcatel mobile phones attracted the attention of many people, but it was more of the attention of mobile phone peers. Mobile phone users only had a little more impression of Alcatel mobile phones.

   So this time, ordinary users don't feel that much about Alcatel's mobile phone, the establishment of the WAP Global Forum Association, the establishment of the Saipan System Alliance, etc.

But in the mobile phone industry, it really caused a shock. If only the Alcatel mobile phone company made a statement, it would be bragging. But after the Alcatel mobile phone, Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson, Siemens, Sony and other mobile phone manufacturers have announced After joining WAP, it represents the standard of mobile Internet access, which is the WAP wireless application protocol!

In the past, a mobile phone manufacturer that could only be regarded as second- or third-rate, now dominates the Internet standard of the mobile phone industry. This is a big news in the entire mobile phone industry. You must know that the mobile phone standards in the past were dominated by Motorola. Yes, it has become Nokia in recent years.

Whoever masters the standard has the right to speak in the industry, just like Motorola is holding on to the analog signal, because it masters the standards, patents, and technologies of the analog signal industry. As long as the mobile phone manufacturers and operators that use analog signals, You have to pay for it!

And now, after Motorola and Nokia, another manufacturer that masters the industry standard has appeared. The mobile Internet business, as well as the mobile Internet, no one knows how big the market will be in the future, but if you master the standard, you will master it. Get ahead.

After the establishment of the WAP Forum, America Telecom, Telephone and Telegraph Group, Alcatel Telecom Group of France, etc., took the lead in announcing their participation, and then the three telecommunications companies, non-stop, announced that they will be in New York, Los Angeles, Washington, Chicago, and Paris and London in Europe. Big city, the first to build a 2G trial city!

The three telecommunications companies have still extended their cooperation in broadband business. Telephone and Telegraph Group has joined forces with America Telecom for mobile Internet business. Regarding mobile Internet business, Telephone and Telegraph Group is still a little hesitant, mainly investing money in America Telecom, and is not ready to end the game in person. .

   The French Telecom Group mainly produces equipment and base station equipment, so now it is mainly America Telecom who is carrying the mobile Internet banner in front of the stage!

   This is America Telecom. After completing the broadband line from Chicago to Wall Street, it has once again become the focus of the entire telecom industry. America Telecom announced that it wants to stud mobile Internet.

Iger, President of America Telecom, when he rushed from New York to San Jose to attend the Alcatel mobile phone P1 conference, declared in a media interview that America Telecom wanted to make the 2G network cover the whole world, so that global users can use it. Mobile Internet!

   This staking stance makes the entire telecommunications industry a little confused. Mobile Internet is still just a concept. No one knows whether it will develop or not. Now America Telecom is shouting to occupy it.

  America Telecom announced that within this year, in America, North America and Europe, the 2G network will cover 30 cities and 100 cities within two years…

As for whether it can be done or not, only the ghost knows. Anyway, the slogan of America Telecom is shouting like a tiger. Just like America Telecom when it entered the broadband industry, it was also a loud noise, and it wanted to cover the entire Ami Liga, build hundreds of thousands of kilometers of fiber-optic broadband lines.

As a result, for more than a year, America Telecom is still hanging out in big cities such as Houston, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, etc., to seize the broadband market of these big cities, and America Telecom has no plans to prepare for the past in those small cities in America, not only now , Even in the future, America Telecom will only conduct business in big cities with rich oil and water. As for those small cities, America Telecom may not take a look.

In the mobile Internet industry, it is basically the same. Don't look at the loud slogans shouting, but in fact, America Telecom is still staring at the big cities in America. As for small cities, towns and even mountainous areas, it is not at all There will be telecom operators in the past to lose money!

  Alcatel mobile phones do not yet have the kind of appeal of Apple and Microsoft. A press conference attracts thousands or even tens of thousands of users and fills the entire stadium.

In order to fill the San Jose Convention Center, Alcatel mobile phones attracted a group of people to the scene by distributing Alcatel mobile phone vouchers and other gifts to colleges and universities in San Jose, San Francisco and other places, as well as the stores of America Telecom. Watch this launch.

This time, the Alcatel mobile phone conference did not invite too many people from the technology industry. In fact, they did not necessarily come. In the Internet industry, Song Yang raised his arms and many people responded. In the electronic hardware industry, even if It was Song Yang, who was still being questioned.

   Just like when Song Yanggang acquired Alcatel mobile phones, Palm President Jeff Hawkins showed unreserved contempt for Song Yang and Alcatel mobile phones in the media, the entire technology industry basically has this attitude.

  Song Yang was born halfway through. He entered the electronics industry from the Internet industry. He was not a professional. Compared with Jeff Hawkins, who has been in the electronics industry for decades, this is not a proper job.

   In addition to the Alcatel mobile phone, he was not from a wealthy family, and he was half-dead at the beginning, otherwise he would not sell himself.

  Song Yang knew that the electronic technology industry, including the old guns of Jeff Hawkins, had no good feelings for him and Alcatel mobile phones, and he was too lazy to put his face on his cold butt, and he couldn't find it happy for himself.

   So this time, in addition to using vouchers and gifts to attract a crowd of spectators for the P1 press conference, the rest are media and e-magazines in the technology industry.

The companies under Song Yang’s side all came to cheer. Double-click, ICQ, Fortis, American Telecom, as well as invested companies such as eBay and Amazon, all sent people. ICNC TV station today is in charge of offline and online. , the conference will be broadcast live to users around the world.

At the P1 conference, there is still half an hour before the start, a Brady wearing a sweater, dyed this year's most popular hair color, wearing headphones, along with the latest Sony Walkman in his pocket. , stepped on the music point, and staggered to the gate of the San Jose Convention Center.

After handing an invitation letter from a school buddy to the security staff of Blackwater Company in the conference center, Brady got a popcorn and a glass of Coke. The security staff did not forget to ask Brady something , as long as you sit inside until the end of the product launch, when you come out, you can get another star poster or a photo of a Victoria's Secret supermodel...

   Brady, who has also participated in several conferences of other electronics manufacturers, had some doubts when he heard this, whether this trip was really wrong.

Brady has a good family and is now in a university in San Francisco. He is keen to collect all kinds of electronic products on weekdays, not to mention ashes, but all kinds of the most popular and unpopular electronic products, Brady has hunted and even he At home, there is also a special room to display the things he collected.

This time Brady came because he saw the advertisement of P1 at the Super Bowl. I don't know the real thing, how big the gap is with the advertisement, but Brady was really attracted. This time, he came here specially. In this pair, there are vouchers and gifts to attract people to enter the venue, and food, drinks, star posters and other things are distributed, just to let people stay for a while, Brady has some doubts, is it a P1 phone? It is purely selling dog meat with sheep's head.

   Entered the venue. There were already a lot of people in the hall of the conference center. The whole venue was a little noisy. Brady found a seat on both sides and sat down.

   After a while, the lights in the entire hall suddenly dimmed. The sudden darkness made the noise of the scene suddenly quiet down.

   Then the group walked to the front row. Brady only recognized one of them, and it was Bruno Song. The reason he recognized it was because Brady had seen a discussion about Song Yang on the Internet.

Brady remembers that it was in his college forum where he was discussing who was America's number one Internet genius. There were many tech giants and many Internet geniuses, but after the discussion, there was still only Mark Anderson left. , Yang Zhiyuan, Song Yang and a few others, and others may indeed be unique in technology and create new Internet technologies, but these three people are considered to be the figures influencing the Internet trend, which impressed Brady deeply.

When he saw Song Yang and heard the introduction, Brady knew that Song Yang was the big moneymaker of the Alcatel mobile phone, and even part of the design of the P1 was made by Song Yang, which brought Brady here. With a bit of interest, Song Yang was blown away in the Internet industry. He didn't know how Song Yang would behave when he entered the electronics industry.

   Also in a mansion in Silicon Valley, Jeff Hawkins also turned on the TV at home. On the TV before, when the media asked him what he thought about Alcatel mobile phones and Song Yang, Lao Huo was a sneering output.

However, this seems to be common sense. When seniors look at juniors, it is disgusting. Today, Hawkins has some whims. He also turned on the ICNC TV station, took a glass of wine, and watched the press conference. He too Be prepared in advance. If there is a media tomorrow and ask him what he thinks about this mobile phone conference, he can also find the place where the spray is not...

  The lights in the hall of the conference center converged on the stage. Ertien took a deep breath and walked to the stage.

   At this time, the cameras under the stage began to focus on him, and Ertian's face also appeared in front of many ICNC TV users through the camera.

   "I am very glad that you can come to the press conference of the P1 mobile phone. I hope that many years later, when you think of today, you will still not regret coming, but witness a new history!"

  Erthien raised the P1 mobile phone in his hand, and through the projector, made P1 appear on the big screen behind him, and there was a row of machine data on the big screen.

   "The P1 mobile phone is an Alcatel mobile phone, a new generation of flagship mobile phone, weighing 110 grams, capable of 480 hours of standby time and 130 minutes of continuous talk time..."
