"By building a strong number three and a credible challenger to the top two in smartphones, we will give the market something it has needed: choice, competition and a new spark of innovation", Lenovo CEO Yang Yuanqing said in a statement on the company's website.
联想集团首席执行官杨元庆在公司官网的一份声明中提到,“在加强全球第三大智能手机厂商地位的同时,我们向前两名对手发起强有力的挑战,我们将为市场带来面临需求的产品:更多的选择、更具竞争力和创新的产品”。
Yuanqing says Motorola provides a shortcut for entering mature markets and will make the Chinese company "a global player."
元庆说,摩托罗拉为该集团进入成熟了市场开辟了捷径,联想集团也将因此实现“业务遍及全球”。
Rick Osterloh, President of Motorola Mobility, will remain in his role. And the company, with its total of 3,500 employers, will become a fully-owned subsidiary of Lenovo, but will continue to be headquartered in Chicago.Lenovo has headquarters in Morrisville, NC, Beijing, and Singapore.
摩托罗拉移动的总裁Rick Osterloh将继续担任原职,而这家总共拥有3500名员工的公司将成为联想集团的全资子公司,但摩托罗拉的总部仍位于芝加哥。联想在莫里斯维尔、新喀里多尼亚、北京和新加坡都设有运营中心。
Google acquired Motorola in 2012 for $12.4 billion, but failed to bring the iconic mobile maker back to growth. Lenovo claims it would revive the firm within the next 18 months, as it expects to sell about 100 million devices this year.
谷歌于2012年以124亿美元收购了摩托罗拉,但没能让该公司的经营状况得到恢复。联想公司称,该公司将在接下来的18个月让这家公司复兴,联想预计在今年售出约1亿台的移动设备。
