Chapter 3697
The Hanhai Second Generation mobile phone also had many technical breakthroughs, with new technologies emerging one after another. It performed even more outstandingly, especially in application optimization. Whether for office work or gaming and entertainment, consumers were very satisfied.
This time, Hanhai Technology was much better prepared. Their contract factories were spread across several countries around the world, so their production capacity was sufficient this time, basically able to meet the purchasing needs of consumers, unlike when the first-generation Hanhai phone was first released and sold out in just one hour.
Aside from Su Xinghui and his wife, the first people to get their hands on the Hanhai Second Generation phone were those mobile phone review agencies. After receiving the phones, they conducted authoritative reviews and once again unanimously gave the Hanhai Second Generation phone high praise. Such evaluations made the sales heat of the Hanhai Second Generation phone even higher.
On the night before the Hanhai Second Generation phone was publicly released, Su Xinghui received one. Of course, he paid for this phone himself; Hou Wenchang wanted to give it to him as a gift, but naturally, he could not accept it.
He was still very satisfied with this phone. Su Xinghui had given Hou Wenchang many suggestions regarding the exterior design and some new technologies. Now that Hanhai Technology's technology had improved, many new features could be realized. Although these technologies were not particularly eye-catching, they further improved the user experience and made users even more satisfied, which also strengthened the user stickiness of Hanhai phones.
Hanhai Technology currently held an increasing number of patents in smartphones and other high-tech fields, adding hundreds or thousands of patents almost every year. Hanhai Technology had also become the Chinese enterprise with the most patent applications.
The release of the Hanhai Second Generation phone allowed Hanhai Technology to once again widen the gap with other smartphone manufacturers; this gap was almost like a chasm, insurmountable.
What was most shocking was that the localization rate of the main components of the Hanhai Second Generation phone this time was very high. Components including chips, touch screens, and so on were all domestically produced, and their performance was excellent, receiving very high ratings in the review reports.
This made Hanhai Technology a leader among national enterprises, because what the Chinese people most wanted to see was the rise of national enterprises. The Chinese people had a complex; they wished that Chinese people were world-leading in all fields, and that they were not inferior to others in terms of economy, technology, sports, culture, and so on.
This "not being inferior to others" was not compared to any single country, but rather meant being stronger than the country that performed best in that aspect in all areas.
It was as if there were only two countries in the world: one called China and one called "foreign countries." China had to overwhelm foreign countries in all aspects to satisfy the Chinese people.
In recent years, China's rise had been rapid, and it was already at the forefront of the world in many aspects. For example, the Olympic Games in recent years had seen China perform better and better, which greatly satisfied the pride of the Chinese people.
And in terms of the economy, China's performance was also very good; it was now considered a major economic power.
Now, in the field of technology, another Hanhai Technology had emerged. They were already the undisputed world leader in smartphones. This, of course, once again ignited the pride of the Chinese people. For a time, the entire line of Hanhai digital products was a hot seller domestically, beating all competitors in market share, with unparalleled momentum.
The timing of the Hanhai Second Generation phone's release was also chosen very well; it was in the latter half of the first lunar month, close to the Spring Festival. Many work units had issued various bonuses and benefits, so everyone had money in their hands, and at this time, they were willing to spend it. They had worked hard for a year just to be able to spend money more freely during the New Year, so the sales volume of the Hanhai Second Generation phone also set a record.
For Su Xinghui, this was also his busiest time. At this moment, various appropriations from the central government, the provincial government, and the World Bank had already been deposited into the account of the Linshan City Finance Bureau. Those land acquisition compensation agreements now had to be executed. This was a very cumbersome task; they had to execute the contracts with each household one by one and transfer the money to their accounts, and absolutely no mistakes could be made.
And since the Spring Festival was just around the corner, they had to issue some bonuses and benefits to the cadres and staff of the Linshan municipal-level organs to boost morale. After all, it was a new year with a new atmosphere, not to mention that Su Xinghui was still considered a new mayor this year.
This bonus and benefit amount was not a small sum; it had to be higher than last year's, and significantly higher at that. The project funds allocated from above absolutely could not be used. Fortunately, quite a few enterprises had invested in Linshan City over the past few months, and the various fees they paid had made Linshan City's finances quite flush, so there was no problem in issuing these bonuses and benefits.
Su Xinghui held a mayor's office meeting, where they discussed the standards for this year's bonuses and benefits. They finally set a standard that was twice as high as last year's, issuing two thousand yuan in bonuses and related benefits to each person. This standard was not considered high compared to economically developed areas like Baozhou, but for Linshan, it was an unprecedentedly high standard.
Once this news spread, Linshan City was suddenly filled with joy. Many leaders might not look twice at these two thousand yuan, but for those ordinary cadres and staff, they might be counting on these two thousand yuan to have a good New Year.
At this time, Niu Niu's semester ended. He finished his exams, received double hundreds again, and with his "Three-Good Student" certificate, he came to Linshan with his mother and his grandparents. Of course, Yang Yuanshen also came with them.
The Standing Committee villa prepared for Su Xinghui by Weng Jingyao had long been ready. This was a villa located in the middle of all the Standing Committee villas, and all the furniture and appliances were already prepared, so as soon as Su Xinghui's family arrived in Linshan, they could move in directly.
Su Xinghui was finally reunited with his family. He sent his family to that villa and then had Zhai Yingjie take Yang Yuanshen to Linshan College.
Yang Yuanshen was naturally warmly welcomed at Linshan College. Who among the teachers and students at Linshan College did not know that Yang Yuanshen was a nationally renowned master-level figure? The news that such a person could actually come to teach at Linshan College made everyone boil with excitement.
Although Linshan Academy is currently on winter break, many local students have come to the school out of admiration to hold a grand welcome ceremony for Yang Yuanshen.
At the welcome ceremony, Xie Wenkuang solemnly presented Yang Yuanshen with a bright red, gold-stamped certificate of Honorary President and officially appointed Yang Yuanshen as a distinguished professor of Linshan Academy.
Regarding housing, although Xie Wenkuang did not actually give up his own home, the house he arranged for Yang Yuanshen is the best one at Linshan Academy. This apartment has three rooms and two living areas, covering an area of over 130 square meters, and is also fully equipped with furniture and appliances, so Yang Yuanshen can move in directly.
Xie Wenkuang also arranged for a staff member to specifically take care of Yang Yuanshen's daily life; it can be said that the preparations were very thorough.
