"The next step is the hardware, the appearance design of the mobile phone, and the main component parameters have been determined. The next step is mainly the internal stacking design. The goal is to achieve small-scale testing within half a year."
After finishing talking about the software part, Wei Qingfan looked at Zhang Yuanping and began to explain the arrangement of the hardware part, "The main parameters that can be determined so far are listed above."
In the PPT above, the appearance design drawings and key parameters of the mobile phone appear.
4.0-inch square screen with 16:9 ratio, 854*480 resolution, above the screen is the earpiece and a 30mm front camera, below are three touch operation buttons, no logo, and a rear 5MP camera in the upper left corner of the back
For the camera, there is a logo with the word "Word" in the upper middle position.
512M running memory, 4G body storage, Qualcomm MSM8655 single-core 1.4GHz processor, supports 3G network, USB interface, black and white, plastic body.
"This is the main parameter parameter, and it is also our main publicity point. Of course, the most important thing is the price, 1999, so we must pay attention to controlling costs in other aspects..."
After Wei Qingfan finished explaining the preliminary plan, the three grand prize winners in the audience all frowned.
Zhang Yuanping was impatient and asked: "Are you sure the price is 1999? We may lose money..."
He originally made mobile phone hardware. Although the overall component specifications of the mobile phone have not yet been determined, the current specifications of these main components seem to be not cheap.
What's more, even if you sell online, you can save channel costs, but you can't save R&D and operation costs.
"As long as the sales volume is enough, you will definitely make money."
Wei Qingfan said casually but firmly, "But these are preliminary plans. The specific plan needs to be finalized by the hardware department... My requirement is that the main components, including processors, screens, memory, and cameras, have certain parameters.
Be nice."
Wei Qingfan was afraid that Zhang Yuanping still wouldn't understand, so he further explained: "For example, for the camera, we need to use a 5-megapixel camera. The sensor does not matter... When we promote it, we will promote that we have a 5-megapixel camera, while the iPhone 3Gs only has a 3.2-megapixel camera."
, that means our cameras are better...can you understand?"
Zhang Yuanping frowned and said, "Aren't you lying? High pixels are useless."
Tang Tingyue and Wang Qinggen couldn't help but look over, gaining a better understanding of this guy's "bad temper".
"It definitely has its uses."
Wei Qingfan didn't mind Zhang Yuanping's words and attitude, and said with a smile: "You get what you pay for. iPhone 3Gs sells for 5,000, but we only sell 2,000. We also want all our parts to be more expensive than the iPhone. This is a bit
Isn’t that unreasonable?”
Zhang Yuanping said: "Then it's okay if we don't publicize it?"
“If we don’t promote it, what the hell are we selling?”
Wei Qingfan was a little speechless, "And we didn't lie. We are indeed 5 million pixels, and iPhone 3Gs is indeed 3.2 million pixels... Isn't this fake?"
"But low pixels doesn't mean it's good for taking pictures. What kind of sensor and camera do they use for their 3.2 million cameras? What kind of camera can we use then?"
Zhang Yuanping is still a little dissatisfied, "When people buy it, they will compare it and find that our 5 million pixels are not as good as their 3.2 million pixels. So what can we say?"
"Our prices are cheap."
Wei Qingfan spread his hands and said, "Besides, that will happen after the phone is sold. What we have to consider now is how to sell the phone."
Tang Tingyue coughed and said: "I still agree with Mr. Wei on this point. Necessary marketing is indispensable. The bottom line we must abide by is not to lie. Selective comparison can better promote sales."
Zhang Yuanping glanced at him, then withdrew his gaze, and said angrily: "Anyway, I'm only responsible for making the mobile phone...Hurry up and make the mobile phone, and I'll go work on the chip. Whoever wants to do this shit will do it."
These words were a bit too harsh, a bit meant to oppress others from the moral high ground, and there was also the suspicion of being a scoundrel and erecting a memorial arch. Tang Tingyue couldn't help but frowned, but didn't say anything.
"Then we have to make the mobile phone first."
Wei Qingfan secretly complained about what kind of people he had under his command, while maintaining a smile and said, "Next, the hardware department must first contact the component suppliers and make a preliminary plan as soon as possible... It is best to get it
If we get different prices for different shipments, we can also sign a betting agreement. Our target sales volume is 1 million units."
According to his memory, the first generation of Xiaomi mobile phones sold more than 7 million units, but this included Xiaomi 1S, not just the sales of Xiaomi Mi 1.
And it was released a year early. Considering that the smartphone market has been expanding, if it is released and sold in 10 years, the market will definitely be smaller than the previous Xiaomi mobile phone. Therefore, he set a relatively conservative goal.
However, this relative conservatism is just his personal opinion, is it the opinion of others...
Just look at the reactions of the three "generals" who looked at each other in confusion.
After Wei Qingfan finished speaking, the wily Tang Tingyue, the hot-tempered Zhang Yuanping, and the calm and down-to-earth Wang Qinggen all fell silent.
After a long while, Zhang Yuanping sneered.
Tang Tingyue also sighed helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Are you sure it's 1 million? Not 100,000?"
Wang Qinggen said: "I took a look at the sales of Meizu M8. The current data is that 100,000 units were sold in two months, and the sales volume in five months was probably just over 200,000 units."
The implication is that the sales of Meizu M8 are booming for all to see. You, Mr. Wei, specifically mentioned it before... Do you still want the first mobile phone to be more popular than Meizu M8?
And there is so much fire?
You know, Meizu M8 has been a legend for domestic mobile phones for so many years, and it is the first of its kind!
What would be the concept if the first-generation Guci mobile phone could really sell one million units?
Even at the price of 1999, if one million units were sold, the sales would be a full two billion!
Wei Qingfan smiled and said: "It all depends on people. You still have to have dreams."
After all, it was the goal, and the other three did not argue with Wei Qingfan over this matter. They then discussed the specific project cooperation and progress together, followed by separate meetings with each department.
The first is the software department, which is divided into the application department and the system department. The two departments met together. Tang Tingyue and Wang Qinggen divided the priorities and made certain arrangements for the next work of the two departments.
Next is the hardware department, which is divided into three groups of people, namely the design department, engineering department, and supply management department. Currently, most of the employees belong to the engineering department. The design department is a mere commander, and there are only two people in the supply management department.
Wei Qingfan has almost completed the product planning. The next process is supplementary analysis, overall design, detailed design, logic design, schematic diagram, PCB (Printed Circuit Board), inspection, board launch, and production trial production.
At this step, you can find the foundry to produce the mobile phone motherboard for debugging. If there is no problem with the debugging, it means that the general design of the mobile phone has been determined and the engineering machine can be trial-produced for debugging.
After the meeting between the two departments was over, it was past eleven o'clock in the morning. Wei Qingfan returned to his office and finally had time to look at his mobile phone.

Li Miaoyu: "What are you doing?"
Li Miaoyu: "Oh, you were at work, I almost forgot."
Li Miaoyu: "Dear Mr. Wei, how do you feel about your first day at work?"
Wei Qingfan: "You've already taken off your pants, and you're just going to show me this?"
Wei Qingfan: "Next time you post a cat photo, remember to bring a photo of yourself."
Wei Qingfan: "It's quite cool. Everyone looks at me with respect and admiration. Of course, there are also beautiful ladies who look at me with eyes that reveal their evil intentions."
Li Wanyi: "Wei Qingfan!"
Li Wanyi: "I'm going to die from exhaustion"
Li Wanyi: "I don't want to do it anymore, I'm so angry"
Li Wanyi: "How are you doing there?"
Wei Qingfan: "Who?"
Wei Qingfan: "Who is it!
!”
Wei Qingfan: "Who doesn't want to live anymore and dares to make my wife angry?"
Wei Qingfan: "Call him over and I'll crush him to death with one hand!"
Wei Qingfan: "I just finished the meeting and I'm almost exhausted."
Li Miaoyu: "Narcissistic [eye roll]"
Li Miaoyu: "Meow meow is the most beautiful person in the world!"
Li Miaoyu: "Yeah, it's still a little bit off, just a little bit."
Li Miaoyu: "Are there any pretty girls in your company?"
Wei Qingfan: "Nonsense, my wife is obviously the most beautiful woman in the world."
Wei Qingfan: "I will send you the photos of Yaya when I get back so you can compare them."
Li Wanyi: "Someone is deliberately writing bad reviews. I'm so angry. How could such a person exist?"
Li Wanyi: "Taobao doesn't care. It's true. It's obviously a deliberate attempt to create bad reviews."
Li Wanyi: "Go ahead and squeeze them to death."
Wei Qingfan: "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Shopping malls are like battlefields. This kind of tactics will be indispensable in the future. They will fight theirs and we will fight ours. Don't be affected."
Li Wanyi: "But I'm still very angry."
Li Wanyi: "[Grgrievance]"
Wei Qingfan: "Others can handle these things, you just have to control the direction."
Wei Qingfan: "Wanwan, do you miss me? Come over here soon, my husband will love you well."
Li Wanyi: "Disgusting!"
Li Wanyi: "[Spit]"
Li Wanyi: "[Pig Head]"
Li Miaoyu: "I have photos of Ya Ya."
Li Miaoyu: "How is your company? My parents asked just now."
Wei Qingfan: "It's okay. It's going very smoothly so far and I haven't encountered any problems."
Wei Qingfan: "After all, the project has just started. If there is no progress, of course there will be no problem."
Li Miaoyu: "Then when will a mobile phone be made? I haven't even bought the iPhone 3GS, so I'm just waiting for your phone."
Wei Qingfan: “I’ll try to let you see it before the Spring Festival.”
Li Wanyi: "How are things going at the company? Is it going well?"
Wei Qingfan: “I’ll try to let you see it before the Spring Festival.”
Li Wanyi: "?"
Wei Qingfan: "When I saw the phone... there were two words missing"
Li Wanyi: "So fast?"
Wei Qingfan: "It's just a fight. Even the specifications of the main components have not been determined yet. This is the first step in a long march of thousands of miles."
Li Wanyi: "Come on!"
Wei Qingfan: "Then you come early, and you can cheer me up after we meet."
Wei Qingfan: "[color]"
Li Wanyi: “I don’t want to care about you anymore”
Wei Qingfan: "Be good, come on, come on, I miss you so much"
Li Miaoyu: "Then work hard"
Jiang Qinghuai: "What are you doing?"
Wei Qingfan: "I miss you"
Wei Qingfan: "I had a dream last night..."
He was chatting on QQ on his mobile phone. Halfway through typing, he suddenly felt that something was not right, as if something strange had been mixed in, so he paused his hands that kept tapping on the keyboard and looked at the chat box again.
I made a note and confirmed that the name was "Jiang Qinghuai". I couldn't help but say "fuck" and quickly deleted the content I just typed.
He was about to type an explanation when Wang Qinggen appeared just in time. He knocked on the open office door and walked in, interrupting his explanation.
