On January 7, the “Red Bean Telecom 2018 Annual Conference & Red Bean Global Launch Event” was held at the Yew Tree Manor in Wuxi. The event kicked off with a speech by Liu Hongbiao, CEO of Red Bean Telecom, during which the company unveiled its new product — Red Bean Global — along with new pricing plans.
At the launch, Cai Fuyuan, COO of Red Bean Telecom, first introduced the market prospects for Red Bean Global. According to data, in 2016 China received 138 million inbound tourists and 121.6 million outbound tourists; in the first half of 2017, it welcomed 69.5 million inbound tourists and 62.03 million outbound travelers. This shows a growing trend in cross-border internet use and consumption. To comprehensively enhance users' cross-border experience and provide them with better anytime, anywhere internet access, Red Bean Telecom proudly introduces its global smart network device — Red Bean Global.
Red Bean Global — the Apple of WiFi hotspots
Cai Fuyuan, COO of Red Bean Telecom, stated that as a WiFi hotspot device, Red Bean Global can be shared by up to five smart terminals; it also features power output to charge devices such as phones; equipped with a 5350mAh lithium-ion battery, it offers up to 15 hours of usage; Red Bean Global provides global network coverage, enabling users to travel worldwide without roaming fees; in areas with multiple network options, it can automatically select and intelligently switch to the best available network. It is the optimal choice for outdoor travel, business trips, mobile work, international tourism, and for business professionals traveling abroad or for visitors from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and other countries entering China.
Furthermore, while many WiFi sharing devices exist on the market, most lack intelligent voice translation capabilities. Red Bean Global will later introduce smart translation support for 28 languages, freeing users from language barriers during cross-border trips. Additionally, Red Bean Global will soon feature message push functionality, providing users with a wealth of local deals, must-visit attractions, authentic snacks, and cultural insights — allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the local lifestyle!
The official retail price of Red Bean Global across China is 999 RMB. Moreover, purchasing the device comes with a data plan: pay for one device and enjoy 2GB/month of domestic data (totaling 48GB) and 1GB of global data (valid for 180 days) for two years. Users who need more data can purchase additional data packages: 49 RMB/month for 30GB of high-speed and unlimited data, or 89 RMB/month for 50GB of high-speed and unlimited data. This ensures users get great value within their province, and save even more when traveling across provinces or abroad!
Smart Data Packages — Small Joys for Users
At the event, Red Bean Telecom also announced the upcoming launch of new pricing plans in February: 1 RMB for 300MB of data. Users can enjoy 300MB of provincial data per day for just 1 RMB. With just one RMB a day, users can freely experience the joy of seamless internet. This reflects Red Bean Telecom’s increasing focus on the appeal of data to users, as well as its strategy to offer more affordable and user-friendly services, striving to bring small but definite joys to its customers.
The event received support from major media outlets and online influencers, who live-streamed the conference simultaneously on various platforms. We can keenly sense Red Bean Telecom’s strong drive for development in 2018 and its ongoing commitment to the principle of being “a promoter of integrated digital transformation and a model of smart enterprises.” Next, let’s look forward to the cross-border experiences Red Bean Global will bring to users and witness the continuous progress of Red Bean Telecom!
