At present,a Chinese company,Xiaomi,took the No.1 position inChinas competitive market and became the world's third largest phone maker.

  Xiaomi was founded in 2010 as a company to sell smartly designed phones at cheap prices over the Internet.  A clever social media strategy and a business plan helped the company build support from young and trendy Chinese people. With people inChinaexpected to buy 500 million smart phones in 2015,Xiaomi plans to solidify (鞏固) its position as one of the most powerful phone makers in the world's most important market.

  The company's founders,including the Chinese Lei Jun and the former Google manager Lin Bin,hope that they will make Xiaomi famous all over the world. Although the phones of Xiaomi are already sold internationally,next year will be the true test of whether it can continue its rise beyondChina. Avoiding markets like theUnited Statesand Europe,Mr Lei and Mr Lin are looking at huge developing countries likeBrazilandIndia. And they hope to use ecommerce networks to sell cheap and highquality phones,and create their Chinese success.

  Xiaomi fans have a high level of organization. They love Xiaomi. Han Yu,a 24-year-old boy studying for his master's degree,is one of those lovers. He helps Xiaomi test its user interface by looking for bugs and offering suggestions. Mr Han has several pages on the company's online meeting,which averages 200,000 posts a day and is the place where fans interact with the company. Much of his personal life turned around Xiaomi and he said he was honoured when his suggestions on creating private photo folders were accepted by Xiaomi.

  Although Xiaomi makes some money on phone sales,the company's plan is to increase success by selling services like entertainment and apps through the phone. The company has also started to sell other machines,like a smart television,a tablet and a fitness band.
