Chapter five hundred and fortieth keep the clouds open to see the moonlight (1/3)

Another thing is also related to the communication field, that is, Huawei Technologies has finally completed its own Internet communication technology research and development, and has also obtained procurement from relevant departments.

This incident seems small, but it still caused a great shock in the global communication market. Many companies immediately asked about their technical situation and sales price.

In fact, many companies are very unhappy with Lingtong Technology, mainly because they make too much money. Last year's 200 billion yuan in communication equipment revenue was just an appetizer.

In the past five or six months of this year, their global communication equipment and service revenue has exceeded 250 billion yuan, and it is expected to exceed 500 billion yuan for the whole year.

At this stage when the global Internet construction is in full swing, they are the only company in the world that makes a lot of money, how can it not make people jealous and envious.

Let’s not talk about the competitors in the same industry, it’s useless to hate the teeth, and sometimes you can really take it for granted when you are ahead in technology, otherwise how could Lingtong Technology Co., Ltd. be so comfortable.

Even Internet communication companies can't stand Lingtong Technology Co., Ltd. When they had few customers, they didn't realize how big the investment was.

Unexpectedly, under the series of operations of companies such as Phoenix Technology, the number of Internet users has increased rapidly. This is considered a good thing, after all, their source of profit is these users.

However, users also have high requirements for Internet access speeds. In the past, they planned to use low access speeds to ease the pressure on investment costs. Unexpectedly, many users did not buy it.

However, if the access fee is too high, many potential users will be kept out of the door, so many operators have to increase the network speed without changing the fee.

As a result, the number of their equipment access will drop significantly, and they will have to purchase more equipment. These are all costs for them, and Lingtong Technology does not discount at all.

Now finally a company has launched their Internet communication equipment, and the effect is also good, and the equipment is also interoperable, which gives many operators confidence.

Of course, some companies think that these two companies are actually one company, and they may not necessarily be able to take advantage of this matter.

But they were wrong. After Huawei Technologies launched its own Internet communication equipment, Lingtong Technology immediately announced a large-scale price cut. The reason was to thank customers for their company and to cooperate with customers in development.

The price reduction is generally 20%. Although it is still far from the operator's idea, this price reduction still benefits many operators a lot.

After the price reduction, Lingtong Technology's equipment is slightly higher than that of Huawei Technologies, but the gap between the two is not very large.

Lingdong Technology Company, which has a first-mover advantage, still has the support of many old customers. Of course, Huawei Technology Company has also received a lot of orders, a picture of harmonious coexistence.

It may be because of the tangible benefits brought about by the competition between the two companies. Although both companies belong to a group enterprise, the effect is here.

Therefore, many operators are still willing to hand over part of the orders to Huawei Technologies, planning to use this method to pinch the two companies so that they can get more benefits from it.

It’s just that they don’t know that although the two companies seem to operate independently, the technology actually comes from Lingtong Technology. If there is competition, Huawei Technologies will be hurt by collecting patent fees.

However, this has been of great help to the nascent Huawei Technologies. According to their order acquisition, the number of orders this year may approach 100 billion yuan.

It is incomparable with Lingtong Technology, but this performance in the first year has satisfied Huawei Technologies. At least with the support of these funds, they have the ability to continue to develop.

Lingtong Technology Company is not completely at a disadvantage. First, it can collect patent fees, and second, it can charge some parts and components fees, which can increase their income to some extent.

The market occupied by Huawei Technologies is not completely snatched from Lingtong Technology. A considerable part of the orders come from enterprises and units that have not cooperated with Lingtong Technology before.

Of course, a considerable part of this year's high income is due to changes in the exchange rate. They have mastered the technology, and their foreign sales are not subject to changes in the exchange rate of their own currency.

This is completely different from other companies, who feel that when the exchange rate is lowered, the export price can be lowered, thus gaining a competitive advantage in the international arena.

This kind of product with little technical content can only win by relying on the price advantage, while the enterprises under his company, regardless of changes in the international exchange rate, only focus on the US dollar, and there is no need to worry about the market anyway.

In addition to the impressive achievements in the field of communication, there are many other changes, one of which has attracted the attention of Ye Zishu, and I finally feel that there is a feeling of blossoming and fading.

That is, the Skynet system has finally obtained the purchase from the relevant department. It has been more than half a year since this system was proposed, and the entire project is led by Baihe Software Company.

At the beginning, Ye Zishu's vision for the Skynet system was basically realized in the hands of Baihe Software Company. It can be said that it is the most advanced digital security system at present.

Although it is the most advanced, the price is also very expensive. In order to expand the market as much as possible and increase their own income, they have also launched many related low-end systems.

Low-end and mid-range systems are mainly aimed at scenarios where security requirements are not particularly high, and are also for export. High-end systems use too much artificial intelligence and advanced hardware technology, and may face export controls.

I originally thought that such an expensive system should be difficult in the early stage of development. After all, the domestic situation is like this. In many cases, it does not care whether it is high-end, but whether it can be used or not.

But he didn't expect that there are quite a few cities that have decided to access this system. Cities with relatively good finances, such as the capital, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Shanghai, all have this plan.

As more and more migrants flood into these economically sound cities, causing great troubles to local security, this Skynet system can be said to have solved their urgent needs.

In particular, the application of artificial intelligence technology in high-end systems has enabled these cities to control many dangers in the embryonic stage, which has a significant effect on improving citizens' sense of security.

According to the cooperation agreement signed by them, it is expected to achieve 20 billion yuan in revenue from this business this year. This is still the domestic market, and the foreign market is currently unpredictable.

They also have their own vision for the development of this business. Currently, the orders he has received are government orders, which are logically very different from civilian orders.

In order to ensure data security for government orders, a completely independent software and hardware system needs to be established, and a large investment in hardware is required.

In the civilian field, although there are certain requirements for data security, they are much lower than those of government departments, and are very sensitive to factors such as price.

So they plan to combine their video surveillance system with Phoenix Technology's cloud service to reduce consumers' investment in hardware.

In this way, consumers only need to spend a small amount of money to buy their cameras, and they can be easily connected to the Internet without having to be equipped with special background machines.

The data can be fully encrypted and stored on the cloud server, and consumers can call these video data anytime and anywhere, no matter where they are, which is very convenient.

For this kind of camera, low-end ones only cost tens of yuan, mid-range ones only cost a few hundred yuan, and high-end ones are expensive, costing thousands of yuan.

For general family use, you only need to buy low-end cameras, mid-range cameras can be purchased in public places in residential areas, and high-end cameras are generally used by wealthy companies.

In addition, the background service is also optional. There will be a basic service that can meet the storage and reading of camera shooting data. The video can only be kept for one week, and the price is relatively affordable.

If you have special requirements, you can purchase customized services. For example, if you need to store data for one year, you can expand the data storage capacity.

These are general services, and there are also special services, that is, artificial intelligence early warning service, which allows users to obtain relevant information in advance, and at the same time, can pre-set things of special concern.

For example, if you don’t want to see someone, as long as he appears in the camera, the system will remind you. This function is very useful in the door defense system.

If the user is using a smart lock, it can also be linked with the camera so that the smart lock can be opened directly to some people without requiring the user to be present in person.

All these things, in order to be able to develop the potential of this system, Baihe Software Co., Ltd. has worked very hard and conducted special analysis on many scenarios to find what consumers need.

In fact, Baihe Software has such a strong market pioneering spirit, which is a practical need, because his other businesses are not progressing very smoothly.

Since its establishment, it has been in a state of loss. It originally hoped to promote the development of domestic government information, so as to occupy a leading position and gain its own market share.

In the past two years, my country's information technology has developed too fast. It seems that my country has become a powerful country in information technology overnight, which makes many government departments a little bit overwhelmed.

On the contrary, some government departments have tried, but they are all small software systems and do not make much money. At least compared with their investment, the income is not enough at all.

This situation can also be reflected in Phoenix Technology's annual report last year. Their income is directly included in the negligible column in the total income of the group.

Now that there is finally a system that makes him see hope, he naturally wants to do his best in this area, and at the same time hope to get as much income as possible from this business.

If it turns losses into profits, at least sitting in front of a group of fraternal company personnel for a meeting will not be too embarrassing. Now they are afraid of such meetings and have no sense of presence.
