Chapter 454 Pager Conference

After the successful launch of Hualian Communications' 60 near-Earth communication satellites, there were direct news reports in the United States, Europe and Hong Kong, as well as conferences to launch new technologies.

It is the Hualian digital display pager.

This caused the shares of Motorola and IMB to surge a lot. They also wanted to buy Hualian Communications, but Hualian Communications was affiliated with Yunshan Group and was not listed on the stock market. People with money but nowhere to spend it could only invest in the company that was also developing this pager.

As the press conference got closer, when the pager stores in various cities had not yet opened, many people had already come here to inquire.

There is only one clerk in the store and he has no comment to make.

Because even in the store, many advertisements are covered with red cloth, and outsiders can't see anything at all.

The release was originally scheduled for Sunday, October 10th, but due to some reasons, it had to be postponed to next week.

Some of the people who held on almost exploded and smashed the store.

Time quickly came to 10:11 am on October 9th.

Hualian Communications held an outdoor press conference at a technology plaza in Washington. They wanted to do it last week, but it rained those two days. This is the reason.

It was a cloudless day, and the weather for October was just right. As the sun rose, reporters from the United States, several European countries, and even Hong Kong had arrived at the scene.

The curtain opened, and the picture on the main stage showed a pair of hands holding hands.

At this time, there was a person on each side of the stage. One of them held a phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, I'm calling. The message is Dear Tom, this is Jerry. I'm waiting for your call back. The phone number is XXXXX."

Less than 4 seconds after this person hung up the phone, the person on the other end was busy, and suddenly there was a beeping sound from his waist. The person stopped what he was doing, took out a small thing from his waist, looked at it and smiled.

"It turned out to be a message from my dearest Tom, asking me to call back. OK, I'll call back now."

Then he made the call.

The opening of a sitcom was a bit confusing, but many people understood it.

It turns out that pagers are used to find people.

At this time, the publicity officer of Hualian Communications came up. He was a handsome middle-aged man.

He began to introduce to the crowd the purpose, usage and cost-effectiveness of using the pager. For example, if a message was within 100 characters, how much it would cost. If the message was too long, it would need to be sent as two messages.

It's the same effect as the telegraph.

The purpose is to enable you to find someone at any time when you can't find someone at the critical moment.

Now, information transmission services have been opened in major cities in America and Europe. Each pager has a separate paging number. You call the paging station, report the paging number to which you need to send a message, and then leave a message. That's it.

A pager costs 1988 yuan each, and now it is a monthly subscription service. If you activate a number today, it will only cost 18 US dollars a month. After today, it will cost 21 yuan a month, but if you subscribe to an annual package, it will still be 18 yuan.

Although this is a bit expensive, it is not for those at the bottom of the society.

There were also many people who wanted to buy, and they ran to the specialty store at the back without even waiting for the press conference to end.

Pay the money, pick up the machine, go to the service desk and get your ID to apply for a number to activate the service.

At the moment of activation, a message congratulating the activation was sent, with the name of the person who activated it on it.

Anyway, the effect is maximized.

When the direct stores closed at 5:100 in the evening, the background showed that more than 31 million units had been opened in North America and 100 units in South America. The next day, European countries also sorted out the sales data, which was almost the same, exceeding million units.

Unexpectedly, a small city like Hong Kong sold 15 units in just one day.

That is to say, there were less than 700 million machines in stock, and almost one-third of them were sold in one day.

In other words, Hualian Communications earned almost 50 billion yuan in one day.

Even if there were various investments before, it would not exceed 50 billion at most, and this is only one-third of the sales. There will be a small boom in the next few days.

All forces have a clear understanding of Hualian Communications’ inventory.

700 million units can bring in 140 billion yuan in revenue, which is almost all that some small families have accumulated over a hundred years.

How not to make people jealous.

The key is that there is a monthly fee of 18 yuan, which is income every month or even every year.

If all 700 million are sold out every month, that would be 1.2 million per month. Just thinking about it is terrifying.

When did such a terrifying group appear in the U.S.? It is estimated that it will soon surpass those old American groups.

For a time, this made many big families and big financial groups around the world feel uneasy.

If you make three or five hundred million a year, they won't even bother to take a look.

But you make tens of billions a year, even a fool would be tempted, and you can't possibly have only 700 million units. According to information collected from various companies, there are a total of 5 factories around the world that have begun to increase production capacity and run at full speed.

Not only that, some people have discovered that the Hualian Communications Factory is secretly producing a confidential equipment. Now because the confidentiality is very good, no one knows what they are producing.

The rapid mass production of wireless communicators was possible thanks to the involvement of ADM, which specializes in semiconductor circuit design and production.

Moreover, the original few minor problems were solved in disguise within a few days when ADM's R&D department transferred people to join the Hualian Laboratory.

And the effect is surprisingly much better.

After Bai Baoshan learned about the situation, he realized that he had made no investment mistakes.

Now the shares of Hualian Communications are divided into four parts: Yunshan Group 4%, Motorola 45%, IMB 25%, and ADM 20%.

ADM's 10% was squeezed out by three companies. At the beginning, 5% seemed too much, but they did have the technology and talents. Finally, under Bai Baoshan's balance, 10% was transferred to ADM.

However, the pager business does not involve any ADM shares, so even if more pagers are produced, he will not get a share of it. Only the mobile communicators that come later will receive dividends from ADM shares.

As for the money distributed to them and how much money they gave to the scientific researchers, that was not Bai Baoshan's concern.

In the following days, just as some people had guessed, pager sales experienced another small boom.

Once you have a pager, you can be walking or eating, and your pager will ring. You can just take it out and take a look. If there is important news, you can look for a telephone booth and dial the number with coins.

If there is no emergency, just put it away casually.

Most of them are business elites or company executives.

Another group of people were hippies who carried pagers and felt they were cooler.
