Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1958 New plan

At the annual meeting of entrepreneurs in 1994, Duan Yun refused the invitation of the SZ city government on the grounds that he was unwell, and took a rest at home alone for a day.

Duan Yun's approach is quite different from previous years. You must know that in previous Shenzhen Entrepreneur Annual Meetings, Duan Yun was the absolute focus and protagonist, because he has the title of vice president of the Shenzhen Chamber of Commerce for Small and Medium Enterprises. There are many small and medium-sized enterprises relying on the Tianyin Group in Shenzhen, so no matter where Duan Yun is, he is like a star-studded existence.

But now, Duan Yun is trying to avoid such large gatherings. On the one hand, Duan Yun wants to keep a low profile and minimize the time he spends in public. Cooperate and meet more local business friends. The difference is that the current Duan Yun is already very strong, and there is no need to meet more so-called new business contacts and friends. On the contrary, countless people want to know or ask Duan Yun for help. But it couldn't bring much benefit to Duan Yun, so Duan Yun also slowly began to reduce such useless entertainment.

However, even though Duan Yun did not attend the annual meeting of Shenzhen enterprises, he still held a small private party after the annual meeting. All the people invited were his old friends and the person in charge of the holding company.

Among these people, Ren Zhengfei of Huawei, Hou Weigui of ZTE Electronics, Wang Shi of Vanke, and Shi Yuzhu of Giant Company are the most powerful. Faced with Duan Yun's invitation, they also resolutely put down the work at hand, and even directly I rushed back to Shenzhen by plane from other places, and held this party just to be able to participate in Duan Yun.

Speaking of which, these "little brothers" who were single-handedly supported by Duan Yun back then have now become important figures in the Shenzhen business world. Whether it is Huawei, ZTE Electronics, or Vanke, their annual sales have exceeded one billion. Although there is a huge gap compared to Tianyin Group, they are also among the top ten companies in Shenzhen, and technology companies across the country can also be ranked within the top [-].

Moreover, their company is developing rapidly. It is foreseeable that in the next 3 to 5 years, their company will definitely break through to a market value of [-] billion, and will become the most powerful technology company in China.

Although he has become a well-known bigwig in the Chinese business circle in the past few years, he is very respectful in front of Duan Yun. Even Shi Yuzhu, who has always been flamboyant and proud, received Duan Yun's invitation After that, he immediately put down the work at hand and flew back to Shenzhen from Shanghai just to attend this party.

The business world is the most realistic place. The stronger the strength, the more respected. Duan Yun has always wanted to become the godfather of the business world. Now it seems that he has indeed achieved it. Several company leaders who were invited to the party, their The companies added together, whether in terms of size, talent, total sales, or profits, are less than half of Tianyin Group, and Tianyin Group more or less masters the upstream core technology and parts supply of these companies. It also makes them have a strong dependence on Tianyin Group.

On the other hand, people are emotional animals. At the beginning, Ren Zhengfei and others had received Duan Yun's financial and technical support. If Duan Yun hadn't offered help at that time, these companies might have gone bankrupt by now. They will never know that the main reason why Duan Yun gave them such "selfless" help is because of Duan Yun's foresight. After all, Duan Yun will never be so generous to those who are worthless .

For Duan Yun, this day can be said to be the happiest day of the year. At the banquet, Duan Yun drank happily with these old friends and talked about many things when he started his business. There were sighs, embarrassments, and excitement , more of a vision for the future.

The reform and opening up has entered the 15th year. People like Duan Yun can be said to be in the wave of reform. This is the most successful group of people in the industry. With the help of a blessed place like Shenzhen, they have the courage to take risks, display their talents, and realize their responsibility. Their experience, It has also become a legendary story well-known to the Chinese people, and it can be described as a double gain of fame and fortune.

When talking about the topic of development in the new year, several people unanimously decided to help each other and develop together. During this period, Duan Yun also put forward his own idea, which is to prepare to cooperate with Huawei and ZTE to carry out joint research and development of mobile phones and communication technologies.

In fact, as early as a few years ago, Duan Yun planned to get involved in the mobile phone communication industry. At that time, the only mobile phone that people were familiar with was Nokia's "big brother". It's just that mobile phones in this era are a bit cumbersome in size, have a very short standby time, and the communication area cannot cover the whole country, only in Shenzhen and Guangzhou.

Moreover, the communication network of this era still belongs to the 1G era, and does not yet have the communication foundation to support the era of smart phones in the future.

The basic technology of the so-called 1G era first originated in the 19s, when Bell Labs made a breakthrough and proposed the concept of cellular network.

The so-called cellular network is to divide the network into several adjacent cells, whose overall shape resembles a honeycomb, so as to realize frequency reuse and improve system capacity.

In the 1G era, as a pioneering era of mobile communication, there are many heroes competing for the throne, and there are many mountains, and the communication standards are also varied.

Although there are various 1G standards, the king of the 1G era is none other than Motorola.The analog mobile communication system represented by AMPS and TACS has achieved great success. Motorola not only invented the first step of analog mobile phone mobile phone, but also is the main equipment supplier of AMPS system.

In the early 90s, the world began to enter the 2G era.

The 2G era mainly uses digital time division multiple access (TDMA) and code division multiple access (CDMA) technologies, which correspond to GSM and CDMA systems respectively. This is a competition between two major interest groups represented by the United States and Europe.

Entering the 2G era, Europe is unwilling to lag behind the United States. Considering that the EU countries are too small to compete with the United States alone, they have learned the failure lessons of the 1G era, and the EU united to establish GSM to promote it to the world at a rapid scale. , occupying a dominant advantage in the 2G era.

By the end of last year, the GSM penetration rate in Germany was about 71%, while the 2G penetration rate in the United States was only 0.1%.The United States lost, not in technology, but in speed and scale, and also lost an era.

Whether it is the 1G era or the 2G era, China has always been just a "spectator" who can only pay high prices and passively import foreign technology and equipment, and has never had the ability and funds to lead the trend of world communication technology.

Duan Yun is well aware of the importance of communication technology, as well as the potential huge market value and scale of this industry, so he also wants to make achievements in this industry.

It’s just that Tianyin Group’s industry categories are already enough. In addition to the main electronic products, there are also industrial projects such as chips, computers, and automobiles. If you want to get involved in the communication industry, you will be somewhat powerless. It is very huge, and the scale of relevant talents required is also huge. Duan Yun's family alone is also a building that cannot be supported by itself.

Therefore, he must unite top domestic communication companies like ZTE and Huawei, and gather strength from multiple parties to have a chance of success...
