"We are determined to bite with the iphone. But Apple has a whole range of advantages, especially in the brand. Lenovo has only one advantage: this is in China.  Yesterday, Lenovo's board chairman, Liu, declared war on his "imaginary" apple. Mobile internet strategy for mobile phones yesterday, Lenovo unveiled details of its mobile internet strategy in China and launched mobile Internet terminals such as Le phone, Skylight, IdeaPad U160. The release continues with Lenovo's mobile internet strategy, unveiled in January at CES, USA.  Lenovo Group CEO Yang said that within five years, mobile internet terminals will become a larger market than the traditional PC. Although mobile phones have become the protagonist of Lenovo's mobile strategy, Lenovo has not reduced its commitment to other Internet mobile terminals. Yang told reporters: "Lenovo Mobile internet research and development of the pipeline inside are also developing other products, including the replacement of netbooks with keyboard products, but also including keyboard-wide, large-screen tablet pad products.  "It means Lenovo will not only challenge Apple's iphone but will also challenge Apple's ipad." To take advantage of the local advantages of the iphone Liu said that the mobile phone is as strong as Nokia, Samsung, the computer as strong as Dell, HP can not compete with Apple's iphone. "It is a strong negotiation with telecoms operators, and no rivals can match it or compete." Lenovo finally made up its mind to bite with the iphone, but owning technology and being able to compete with the iphone is not the same thing.  "The Apple brand is strong and there are fans everywhere," Mr Liu laments. But Apple also has a soft spot. In his view, Apple's application and content is not tailored to China, the use of habits are not in accordance with the Chinese custom to tailor, the price is high. "That's our chance." We think it's time to come. "In fact, the biggest success for Mr Liu and Yang in mobile internet strategy comes from their friends," he said.  In Lenovo Mobile Strategy conference site, some of the internet industry bosses, such as Alibaba's Ma Yun, Sohu Zhang, Sina's Charles Chao are in person to join in, and Tencent's horse, the grand Chen overpass also through video form to Lenovo expressed support. Get through the mobile internet industry chain In fact, Mr Liu acknowledges that Apple is "a highly innovative company that has launched the iphone in front of us as a base for innovation in technology and business models," Mat said.  "In the face of such opponents, Lenovo also wants to replicate Apple's successful business model--app store online app Store." Yesterday, Lenovo's App Store (www.lenovomm.com) was online. The App Store provides applications for Lenovo wireless terminal devices to download to users. Lenovo Internal engineers told reporters that there are currently hundreds of applications. And the Apple App StoreApplications are basically different fees, "Lenovo store most of the application is not charged." The person said to reporters.  But Lenovo's hundreds of apps are not quite the same as those based on Apple's iphone 120,000, but Lenovo is confident. "We have the co-operation of the dominant operators," Mr Liu told reporters. We have received the full cooperation and support of content service providers. In the process of development, we and the content service domain friends repeatedly, must make it a Chinese to use the most convenient handheld device. "In fact, Lenovo has another killer in its mobile strategy – that's price." While no one knows the exact price of Lenovo's phone until now, Yang patted his chest and assured reporters that "it's certainly cheaper than Apple." Not only do better than them, the price is lower than them, but also make money.  At present, the Apple iphone 3GS unicom version of the cheapest also want 4999 yuan, and parallel imports price of more than 3500 yuan.  According to Yang, Lenovo will choose a "auspicious auspicious" in May to officially start sales. Commercial newspaper reporter Rotin
