Chapter 482 Solving the Network

Li Zetian then introduced the iPhone in detail to Tian Shuai and Zhang Han. After that, the two were shocked.

"Mr·li, no wonder you need to understand the sales volume of wifi routers! Indeed, wifi routers have a great impact on iPhone sales!" Zhang Han said.

Tian Shuai said: "Compared with mobile phone users, there are indeed not many wifi router users now, but with the excellence of iPhone, I believe that many users will be willing to spend another money to purchase a wifi router in order to connect to the Internet!"

"That's right," Li Zetian nodded, and then proposed an idea: "At present, the router market is fierce. I think that iPhone and Galaxy Wifi router may be able to hold a joint promotion! For example, if you buy it separately, the unit price of iPhone is US$200, and Galaxy Wifi router is US$50, but if you buy it together, it only costs US$240, which can save 10 US$10! Well... As for the specific discount, you can discuss it in detail later. I think this idea is good, and it is a win-win situation for Apple and Galaxy Networks!!"

"It's indeed a good idea!" Tian Shuai nodded and smiled, "To be honest, Galaxy Network Company should be the one who has gained the iPhone. If this joint promotion continues, Galaxy Wifi router will definitely be a big seller!"

Li Zetian smiled, "It's not enough to flow from outsiders to the field. Besides, this is also beneficial to Apple. Well, I'll go to Sprint Telecom later, so I'll leave first. Apple and Sprint Telecom have been working together, and the first batch of... about 3 million iPhones will only be sold in the Sprint Business Hall."

"Oh, by the way, then Galaxy Network Company will send some sales staff to the sprint business hall to be responsible for the introduction of the wifi router. In addition... about the space tourism company Spaetravel, after the company is established, Winnissa will contact you." Li Zetian added.

"Okay." Tian Shuai and Zhang Han nodded in unison.

As soon as Li Zetian left Galaxy Network Company, he asked the driver to go straight to Sprint Telecom Company.

In addition to connecting to the Internet through a wifi router, the other way is to use the 3g network CDMA network or GSM network.

Many people think that the 3g network card is about to die.

That's right, that's because China Mobile 3g is a pseudo-3g. In fact, the mobile 3g network is a network developed by the mobile company itself. It belongs to a 5g network. The download speed is around 80kb/s, or even less than that. When encountering obstacles, the signal will attenuate again.

The mobile user base is large, and the network speed and network coverage are not good, so many users naturally think that the 3g network is very stuck.

At around 11:30 in the morning, Li Zetian and Sprint Company Ceo Edgar Carr were already sitting in the office and talking.

Li Zetian asked him a lot about the laying range and network speed of Qualcomm 3g network.

From Edgar Carl's mouth, Li Zetian got a pretty satisfactory answer.

In the United States, due to the promotion of Sprint Telecom, Qualcomm's 3G network has developed very fast and has begun to become popular in the United States. Users can access the Internet smoothly with 3G traffic. The download speed is several hundred kb, and it is fine even if you use your mobile phone to watch online videos.

China's network development is slow, and compared with European and American mobile networks, it does have a long way to go. At present, with the Internet situation in the United States, iPhones have already grown up.

In the future, with the emergence of high-definition videos, high-pixel photos, and even live broadcast software, the 3g network is obviously not enough.

However, there is no hurry to do this. Li Zetian has to discuss a big plan with Edgar Carl, which will not only solve the future network speed problem, but also add a large number of new users to Sprint Telecom.

Li Zetian then put forward the plan, saying: "In the deep mountains, on the sea far away from the coastline, or in remote rural areas, there is no broadband network cable, and sometimes the mobile phone has no signal, but it can be connected to the network through satellites.

iridium and globalstar provide this kind of satellite network service. Above the Earth's atmosphere, they have dozens of satellites that provide network connections. Whether you are in the center of the Pacific, in the Arctic, or anywhere in the world, you can connect to the network through their satellites.

However, when using this kind of network, you should stop expecting 3g or 4g speeds. It is slower than dial-up and can only transmit compressed low-pixel pictures. You can't browse web pages at all, and you can't transmit videos."

Edgar Carl nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. The advantage of the network provided by satellite is that it has no blind spots around the world, but the disadvantage is that the network speed is slow and the price is expensive!"

"It's true, but spae-x is working hard to change this!" Li Zetian said with a faint smile.

Edgar Carl was stunned when he heard this and said in confusion: "Mr·li, how should spae-x change this?"

"Develop smaller communication satellites, but there are a lot of them, seven or eight hundred!!!" Li Zetian smiled, "As long as there are many, it can not only cover the world, but also provide everyone with a very fast network!"

When Edgar Carl heard that there were a lot of numbers, seven or eight hundred, he almost fell.

"Mr Li, are you kidding?" Edgar Carl asked in surprise.

Li Zetian shook his head, said seriously, very seriously: "No joke, spae-x does have this plan, and..." Li Zetian smiled, "I proposed this plan."

Edgar Carl originally wanted to criticize this plan for being a piano randomly, but when she heard that the plan was proposed by her big boss, Edgar Carl immediately swallowed it and then said tactfully: "Mr·li, this plan is good, but it is too expensive to launch seven or eight hundred satellites, and it is a bit unworkable..."

Li Zetian waved his hand and said, "It's a bit too expensive, but it's not as big as you think. Spae-x specially designed this kind of small satellite, and its manufacturing cost is very low, which should be only a few million US dollars. Because this satellite is small in size and weight, a rocket launch can carry multiple small communication satellites in a single rocket launch. In addition, spae-x has made great progress in rocket manufacturing cost control and rocket launch and recovery technology. I believe that in the near future, the rocket launch cost will be greatly reduced. With this calculation, if the global satellite network plan is to be implemented, it should not exceed 10 billion US dollars!"

Edgar Carl smiled bitterly, hungry, and said so lightly that it should not exceed $10 billion? Well, his big boss is too rich, and $10 billion may really not be a big deal in his eyes.
