The Light of Domestic Products: The whole world begs me to sell

Chapter 280 Acquisition of Map Company
a few days later.

Recruitment Office of Phoenix Super Industrial Park.

Since the last time Mayor Gao Ming raised the issue of employment to Hu Lai, Hu Lai has always kept the issue of employment in mind.

This time, just after hearing that the recruitment work was basically completed, Hu Lai rushed to the Recruitment Office of Fenghuang Super Industrial Park early in the morning to learn about the situation.

Soon, Hu Lai came to the office hall of the Recruitment Office.

At this moment in the recruitment hall, there were still quite a few people going through the entry procedures. Hu Lai looked around and was quite satisfied, and walked quickly to the office of the director of the recruitment office without further delay.

As soon as the door was pushed open, before Hu Lai could speak, Director Wang who was sitting at the desk said without raising his head:
"Xiao Liu, you came just in time. The recruiters of the 'Bicycle Department' have registered and made a list. I sent the statistics to your mailbox. You can print it out and take it to the general affairs side for handover."

Hu Lai laughed, and then shouted:

"Director Wang!"

Director Wang, who had been staring at the screen, suddenly felt that something was wrong, looked up with astonished eyes, and immediately stood up in fright.

"Boss Hu!"

"Mr. Hu, why are you here?!"

Hu Lai sat down on the sofa unceremoniously, and said with a smile:

"I am still more concerned about the recruitment this time, so I came here to take a look."

"How is it? Have you recruited suitable employees for each department and position?"

Director Wang had a shiny head and a Mediterranean hairstyle. He quickly poured a cup of tea while he was talking nonsense.

All along, he had only met Hu Lai at the mid-level cadre meeting once a month, and he had never even had the opportunity to speak with Hu Lai alone.

At this time, Director Wang was overjoyed when he heard Mr. Hu actually remembered his name, and said quickly:

"Boss Hu, we're recruited!"

"Although this recruitment is temporary and sudden, and it is in the fourth quarter, it is reasonable to say that it is a low season for recruitment."

"But now our Phoenix Group is a gold-lettered signboard. This time, not only from our mountain city, but also from the neighboring city of Rongcheng and even the border of Guizhou, many people have come. In a few days, all positions have been successfully recruited!"

"Moreover, this time, according to Mr. Zhang's request, we deliberately learned from the well-known domestic national enterprise 'Baixiang' and provided about [-] disabled jobs to the disabled."

"Of course, I will continue to advance this work and make it more perfect!"

Hu Lai nodded. With the increasing scale of the Phoenix Group in the domestic industry over the past year, especially the huge reputation brought about by the successful production of lithography machines, he gradually began to think about the social responsibility behind the Phoenix Group.

After seeing the glorious deeds of "Baixiang Instant Noodles" in the news one time, Hu Lai remembered it in his heart, and then asked Factory Manager Zhang to arrange a study session. This is how the Phoenix Group recruited a large number of people with disabilities this time!

"Okay, well done, Director Wang, you have worked hard."

Director Wang quickly waved his hands, the nervousness of seeing Hu Lai for the first time faded from his face, and said happily:

"Mr. Hu, what we do can't be considered hard work."

"It is true kindness that entrepreneurs like you are willing to help these disabled people find employment; you don't know that many disabled people are teary-eyed when they go through the entry procedures outside, and they keep thanking you!"

Hu Lai exhaled heavily, with a heartfelt smile on his face.

It is very pleasant to be able to help others with my meager strength, no matter how big or small.

After thinking for a while, Hu Lai added another sentence:
"In addition to arranging positions for the disabled, Director Wang, you have to personally greet the superiors in their positions and do a good job."

"Although they are all disabled, as long as they enter the Phoenix Group, they will earn their living by labor. Their labor and personality should be respected. I don't think any disabled employee would like to think that they joined the Phoenix Group because they were pitied because of their disabilities!"

"Therefore, the quality of work is treated equally, and employees with disabilities are managed and demanded as ordinary employees, without special care!"

"However, the superior leaders still have to make adjustments according to the actual situation in terms of the work content on the post and the holidays and condolences on weekdays."

"In short, a big principle is to fully respect and affirm the labor efforts of disabled employees. They all make money from their labor. They are no worse than anyone else!"

Director Wang nodded heavily, quickly recorded it in the notebook, and said firmly:

"Mr. Hu, I will personally convey your instructions to their superiors alone!"

After saying this, Hu Lai briefly learned about the recruitment situation of each department, and after ten minutes, he finally left the recruitment office satisfied.

Seeing that it was still early, Hu Lai thought about it for a while, took an "unmanned automatic taxi" in the park, and then came to the office building of Phoenix Mobile.

Among the additional economic contracts signed with Baixiong this time, the export orders for Phoenix mobile phones account for the most weight.

Although Yanguo mobile phones account for two-thirds of the market in Baixiong's mobile phone market, but...

Because Huawei's high-end mobile phones have completely withdrawn, the share of high-end mobile phones is actually monopolized by Hongguo and Samsung, and the shares that Yanguo companies can get are almost all the shares of low-end mobile phones!

Therefore, this time, Hu Lai is targeting high-end mobile phones with 70% of the market profits!
Soon Hu Lai came to the office hall of Phoenix Mobile. After greeting his colleagues in the lobby, Hu Lai went directly to the office of Li Xiang, the person in charge of Phoenix Mobile.

As soon as the door was opened, the office was filled with smoke, Lao Luo, Nan Song and others were sitting on the sofa discussing something.

When everyone saw Hu Lai coming in, they quickly put out their cigarettes and stood up to say hello.

Hu Lai nodded in response, and saw that there was a document on the coffee table that had been densely altered many times, so he picked up the document curiously and read it.

"I didn't affect you guys, what are you talking about?"

Li Xiang hurriedly said:

"No effect, no effect!"

"Boss, this is our 'localization adaptation' plan for white bears, which was just under discussion."

Hu looked at the two lines of information, and the above content was indeed more professional, so he simply put the information back on the coffee table.

Li Xiang immediately saw that Hu Lai didn't quite understand, and explained:
"Boss, exported mobile phones must undergo a series of adjustments before they can be sold. For example, Hongguo mobile phones sold in Yanguo are the National Bank, and Ami is the US version. There are differences in each region. This is the reason."

"A few days ago we received a notification from Mr. Zhang that the 'Super' series was exported to Polar Bear and we started to make changes. We are no strangers to Polar Bear's mobile phone market. Many domestic brands export Polar Bear. 'The above problem is basically solved."

"However, we are still considering ecological software."

Hu Lai nodded slightly, motioning for Li Xiang to continue.

"Boss, before we entered the mobile phone field, there were only two system ecosystems in the mainstream mobile phone market in the world."

"One is a Hongguo phone, and the other is an Android phone."

"Hongguo mobile phone is unique and has a closed internal ecological loop, while Android mobile phone manufacturers use the Android system plus the Google GMS mobile service provided by Google to form an ecological closed loop."

"Simply put, it is an integrated framework. Android mobile phone manufacturers use the Android system to solve mobile phone system problems. After adding Google GMS services, they solve the ecological problems on mobile phones, such as payment, downloading applications, maps, emails, etc. question."

"Whether it is rice or Huawei in China, all mobile phones exported overseas will inevitably use Google GMS services. First, it is true that domestic manufacturers want to develop a closed-loop ecological system for foreign markets. The cost is too high. Simply speaking, one payment involves various countries. It is better to directly use Google's ready-made GMS framework for problems such as overseas payment docking!"

"Secondly, overseas users are very familiar with Google's GMS service, and there is no need to change it based on user habits."

"We can use Google's GMS service with the strong compatibility of the 'future OS', but..."

"There's a huge hidden danger here."

Having said that, Li Xiang paused for a moment, smiled wryly and said:
"Juchang's overseas mobile phone business is so strong because Google banned GMS service authorization, and all Juchang's overseas mobile phones will not be able to use Google's GMS service overnight!"

"This is a lesson learned from the past, and we have to consider it!"

Hu Lai nodded. Once the deal with Baixiong Chip was exposed, it didn't take much thinking to know that Phoenix Group would never use Google's GMS service.

"but……"

"If we don't use Google's GMS service and build a closed-loop mobile phone ecosystem like Hongguo Mobile, then there is another more difficult problem."

"That's the phone map."

Hu Lai's expression froze, and he asked:
"Mobile map?"

"Can't we do it in our country?"

Li Xiang shook his head, turned around and handed a document on the desk to Hu Lai.

Hu Lai took a look and found that the contents of the information were detailed information about two well-known map and navigation companies in China, AutoNavi Maps and Baidu Maps.

After a brief look, Hu Lai immediately understood that the map information that Gaode Map and Baidu Map can provide is limited to the country of Yan and a few small countries around it, and there is no data on the map of Baixiong, which is urgently needed by Phoenix Mobile.

Li Xiang explained:

"Boss, our domestic AutoNavi and Baidu have been operating at a loss for these years, so let's not talk about going overseas..."

"The best commercial map company in the world today is Google Maps. Their satellite maps and commercial map navigation are very mature. If we don't use their GMS service, we naturally can't use their electronic maps."

"The top priority is that we need a map software that can be used at least in the White Bear Country."

Hu Lai frowned slightly, and understood Li Xiang's meaning.

China's AutoNavi and Baidu maps cannot be used, and the world's best Google Maps is afraid to use, so it is natural to find a way to solve the problem of map software when exporting overseas.

Suddenly, Hu Lai suddenly thought of Hongguo Map.

"The Hongguo map also uses the data of Google Maps?"

"That's not it!"

"Hongguo Map uses the data of TomTom Map Company located in Amsterdam, Netherlands, which is what we are considering!"

Li Xiang paused for a moment, and looked at Lao Luo who was beside him.

Old Luo understood, and followed Li Xiang's words:

"In fact, we can also cooperate with TomTom to purchase their commercial map data. Although it is not as perfect as Google Maps data, it can at least be used."

"but!"

"TomTom is a windmill country company, and ALSM lithography machine is a country, their relationship with Ami..."

Lao Luo pursed his mouth, and did not finish the following words.

Hu Lai frowned even deeper, immediately shook his head and said:
"Cooperating with TomTom is similar to using Google GMS services."

"We can't expect our opponents to let us go kindly, and with their pissing nature, this kind of thing happened not once or twice!"

After finishing speaking, Hu looked at Li Xiang, and then at Lao Luo:

"Do you have any other plans?"

Lao Luo replied:
"There is one last plan!"

"If we only need to solve the electronic map problem of White Bear, we can contact Yandex, the local map software provider of White Bear, and they can provide map data!"

"However, according to what we know, Yandex's map navigation also has many problems. Especially after the economic downturn in the past two years, the frequency of Yandex map updates has decreased significantly, and many map information is inaccurate."

"This is obviously a very bad user experience for our customers. I think there will definitely be customers who choose to give up buying our Phoenix mobile phone because of the problem of the map software."

"And Mr. Hu, electronic maps are not only related to mobile phones, but also our car navigation, so I think that if we want to give customers a better user experience, it is very necessary for us to urge Yandex to step up support Map data update."

"But the difficulty is that Yandex obviously has no extra funds for upgrades and maintenance at present."

Hu Lai fell into deep thought. Indeed, as Lao Luo said, the best solution is to use Google Maps, which is convenient and comprehensive. The next best solution is to cooperate with TomTom. At least there are map data from all over the world. Follow-up Phoenix can improve the map data according to the country where it is located.

And in cooperation with Yandex map company, not only the map can only be used for white bears, but also there is a problem of subsequent upgrades and updates!
Just when Hu Lai was having a headache, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

After a while, he suddenly looked at Lao Luo and asked:

"Since Yandex is struggling to operate and has no money to update, can we do it ourselves!?"

Lao Luo was stunned, and said in a daze:

"We do it ourselves?"

After a while, Lao Luo suddenly realized, and said in a daze:
"You mean we bought the Yandex company!"

"Correct!"

Hu Lai nodded and said:

"The most urgent task now is to enable these 'Super' series mobile phones to use map software in the White Bear Country. We obviously cannot solve the urgent need by establishing a new map company now."

"Simply buy Yandex directly, and then we will fund the map surveying and updating on the land of White Bear Country."

"By the way, their qualifications for surveying and mapping should be complete, right? In this way, even the problem of qualifications has been solved..."

Talking and talking, Hu Lai felt that his thoughts were all cleared up.

"Not only the White Bear country, but our Phoenix mobile phones will also be sold to other countries."

"We can completely set up a Phoenix map and use acquisition methods to purchase data in all countries in the world..."

"In this way, we will save a lot of time for basic data, and for more detailed data, we can do on-site surveying and mapping!"

"what do y'all think?"
