For this week, I mainly did:
One is Korea market basic
information study.
Second is our IQ product.
Third are daily news study
and other study about China market.
About Korea market, this I did a study about the basic information, include the population, Internet population, mobile population, top ISPs, wireless service providers, and top properties and mobile brands. And for more information and VAS, I will make some study on next week.
And all the basic information
I already updated to my training site, so every one can check the information
there.

About the Popular Nokia
and MOTO model in China
I also did a little search on what model mobile phones are popular in China this passed months. I searched some Chinese website, there are rank of that. Some based on the information of selling, some based on the vote. But from all the rank, I can find that are similar.
Most popular mobile phones
are from Nokia and MOTO.
The #1 is Nokia 8250.
So for Nokia, the popular
phones are: 8250, 8310, 8210.3350, and 3310.
For MOTO, the popular phones
are: v66, 388,v998+, v8088, T190.
For Samsung is SGH-N628.
For Alcatel is OT512.
For Siemens is 3118.
And we can from Nokia, the
Chinese like the phone similar as 8250, it is small. And like 3310 because it
is cheap.
From MOTO, all the phone is
fold phone, which will make the phone looks cute, so that is why many Chinese
girls like MOTO.
A Study About The Test
As Suzanne send you a link about some Chinese web site already exist the test. I also did a study on that.
Actually, there many kinds of
test in the Internet and in the magazines, before when the Internet is not
popular, I often did that kinds of test in magazine and then compared with my
friends.
I did a little research from
SINA, SOHU, and NETEASE, they all have that kinds of tests. Like: SOHU life
channel.

SINA astrology channel, http://astro.sina.com.cn/test. And
NETEASE lady channel, http://lady.163.com.
But their test is different
us, their test mostly just for relax, and our IQ test is very serious. And
their tests just include two kind of test. One is only one question, and then
you just chose one answer from the four answers, and then they will tell you
the result you chose. Another is at most give you 10 questions, and you chose
your answer, then they will tell you what answer you can get 1 point, and which
you can get 2 or 3 points, then you add all your points, you will get your
grade, and based the grade, you will find a small analysis.
Another hand, most the
question is based on test your feeling, your psychology.
I give some example of the
questions:
Test how deep your boyfriend
loves you?
What kinds of girl fit you?
From you how to take off your
cloth, test your character.
So this is all they have,
that is different, and all are free. But because all the test just one question
or just few questions, and some are really interesting, so many people like to
try them.
