Looking at Simpson sitting in a daze in his seat, the tea in front of him has gone cold.
Wang Xiang asked his assistant to change the tea for Simpson.
Even if someone walked in front of Simpson, Simpson's eyes would be blank and he would not react.
Wang Xiang could only remind him in a low voice, "Mr. Simpson, you just said that Nokia is willing to build a mobile phone assembly and production plant in Jiangzhou. We can talk about this in detail."
Simpson finally recovered.
Nokia 9650 is Nokia's flagship phone this year and is also the world's first sliding smartphone equipped with a 300,000 camera.
Nokia has great expectations for the 9650. At present, most of Nokia's factories around the world have allocated production lines to the 9650, hoping that the 9650 can help Nokia become the world's mobile phone overlord.
This is Nokia's top priority.
If the mobile phone cannot get lithium batteries from Changtian Technology, it cannot be put on the market, which will affect Nokia's sales plan and brand building plan for the whole year.
Replace the battery immediately and buy Panasonic lithium batteries?
Not only are Panasonic's lithium batteries expensive, their capacity is also very small, only 830 mAh.
The first 100,000 Nokia 9650s were equipped with 1,480 mAh lithium batteries. If subsequent mobile phones of the same series were equipped with smaller-capacity lithium batteries, how would consumers view Nokia? What do you think of this year’s flagship phone, the 9650?
This has a devastating blow to Nokia's brand image.
Even if the 9650 is sold at a reduced price in the future, most consumers will not pay the bill.
Simpson tremblingly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves. It was only early spring, and the spring was cold. Simpson and Wang Xiang were still wearing thick woolen coats.
But Simpson's back was already soaked with sweat.
Nokia is already in danger of losing its own business. At this time, they are still talking about building a factory together.
There is definitely no way to continue the negotiation.
Simpson had no choice but to terminate the negotiations quickly and report the current situation to the head office.
Simpson's team hurriedly packed up the information and returned to their residence without even having time to take a sip of water.
Simpson immediately called CEO Ollila.
Because of the time difference, it was still early morning in Finland.
Ollila was still asleep.
When Ollila saw a call from Simpson, although she was a little angry, she still answered the call calmly.
"Mr. Simpson, if you called me so early, do you have good news to tell me?"
Simpson did not have any polite words and said eagerly: "Changtian Technology has signed a supply contract with Ericsson for a total of 10 million lithium batteries. Even if we are now rescued and compensated, we will sign follow-up orders with Changtian Technology. We also have to wait for Changtian Technology to complete Ericsson’s lithium battery order before we can get the goods.”
"Now we are very clear about the output of Changtian Technology. Our 100,000 lithium batteries will not be fully available until a month. If we wait until Changtian Technology completes Ericsson's 10 million lithium batteries, we will start to provide If we ship, it won’t be until next spring at least.”
"What to do with our 9650 mobile phone?"
Simpson was anxious to report the current situation to Ollila, so he spoke very fast and did not use honorifics.
After listening to Simpson's explanation, Ollila's sleepiness disappeared instantly.
He quickly stood up from the bed and was covered in cold sweat.
"How many orders did Ericsson sign with Changtian Technology in total?"
"Sir, it's 10 million coins, 10 million coins!"
"XXXX!" Ollila couldn't help but cursed, "Simpson, you ask me, what should we do with our Nokia 9650 mobile phone in the future? I should be asking you these questions!"
"If we can't get lithium batteries from Changtian Technology, we won't be able to ship our 9650 mobile phones. Even if we switch to lithium batteries from Panasonic, we won't be recognized by consumers."
"What's more, many companies can use the Symbian system, including Ericsson's latest mobile phone, which also uses the Symbian system. If Ericsson uses a 1480 mAh lithium battery, and we only use 830 mAh, you say Will consumers choose Nokia or Ericsson?”
"You bastard! When you first discussed cooperation with Changtian Technology, if you had told the headquarters Changtian Technology's demands truthfully, how could what happened today have happened?"
Ollila yelled angrily, scaring the wives beside her awake.
"You and your team will stay with me in Jiangzhou now. You are not allowed to leave even a step, waiting for notification from the headquarters!"
After saying this, Ollila threw the phone to the ground in anger.
Ollila had no sleep at all. After getting dressed, he rushed to Nokia's headquarters. He would report the matter to the board of directors immediately and discuss a solution as soon as possible.
Simpson's team is also holding meetings at the hotel in Jiangzhou to think about countermeasures.
The best way now is to hope that Changtian Technology can be persuaded to cancel the contract with Ericsson.
Of course, this method is basically fanciful, and Changtian Technology will never do this.
There is only one way left, and that is to find ways to get the support of Changtian Technology, so that while Changtian Technology produces lithium batteries for Ericsson, it must also produce lithium batteries for Nokia at the same time to ensure the supply of Nokia lithium batteries.
Changtian Technology Headquarters, Chen Xiao's suite.
In the living room, the stainless steel basin is steaming, and the fragrance is fragrant.
During the transition between autumn and winter, the weather in Jiangzhou is the driest and very cold.
If you eat a pot of boiled mutton at this time, it will be the best nourishment.
Gao Miao's friend brought a whole fat sheep from the grassland. The meat of the lamb is the best when cooked.
Whether it's dipped in sesame sauce or chili oil, it's always delicious.
Chen Xiao picked up a piece of fat and thin lamb meat with chopsticks.
Dip it in a little sesame sauce and some chili oil.
Putting the meat into your mouth, the rich smell filled your entire mouth in an instant.
The fat and lean mutton is full of enough energy and protein.
After eating, Chen Xiaocai asked: "Are Simpson and the others still in Jiangzhou?"
Wang Xiang took a bite of meat, nodded and said: "Not yet. Now Nokia is in a dilemma. After all, their flagship phone 9650 has been promoted, and the 1480 mAh battery has been recognized by consumers."
"If Nokia stops selling the 9650 at this time, or replaces the battery with Panasonic's lithium battery, they will not get the understanding of consumers, and the brand will be hit hard."
"Mr. Chen, what do you think our next step will be?"
