Super Tycoon - Chapter 842
Zhiduoxing’s x3 was launched, with a retail price of two hundred dollars in overseas markets and a price of 1,599 yuan in the Chinese market. Such a low price instantly became an explosion.
The most depressing thing about this is Apple. They don’t understand, obviously their previous mobile phone also sells for $199, why no one buys it?
After looking at the performance comparison, it is true that Zhiduoxing x3 is stronger, but it is also much weaker than x3. Including the memory becomes smaller, the sound quality is reduced, the standby time becomes lower, the screen is reduced, the camera becomes single shot, and the pixels are reduced, that is, the camera function is reduced.
What’s the difference between them and what Apple did at that time, why did they buy more? At first, Apple’s performance was worse than the current x3, that is because after one year, the technology has improved.
Now the major fabs are already 45n process, there are better processes, the same size of the circuit board, you can have more integrated circuits, and even reduce production costs.
But after experiencing it, I realized that Zhiduoxing x3 does not have enough hardware performance, but many softwares make up for the hardware gap, and the brand is much stronger than Apple, at least for mobile phones.
This mobile phone began to be listed and quickly sold worldwide. Other mobile phone manufacturers did not expect that the price reduction of Zhiduoxing was so large!
Other mobile phone manufacturers have also launched smartphones of three or four hundred dollars, thinking that the new models offered at this price are attractive enough to increase their sales.
Can’t think of Ji Duoxing being so ruthless, at such a low price, can he still make money? This is equivalent to a cheap machine in a smart phone, except that it can increase market sales and brand value, and can not make much money.
But someone quickly calculated an account, and this one can really make money, because you can clean up the electronic components in stock.
Zhiduoxing’s products have never been out of stock, the production capacity has always been able to keep up with the sales, and it has ensured that they will not lose sales due to out of stock.
If it is really too late to do what to do, Zhiduoxing will choose the pre-sale, and the pre-sale effect of the official website is very good, and many retailers have also opened the pre-sale.
Many times, a mobile phone is not sold yet, Zhiduoxing has already received more than one billion US dollars!
This time all mobile phone manufacturers know that 3g smartphones will be reduced in price. In the future, smartphones will replace feature phones and become the mainstream, but no one expected that Zhiduoxing’s steps would be so big.
mainstream smartphone memory has been increased to 16g, Zhiduoxing this only, but it supports the largest card memory expansion. That is, if you need, you can buy a memory card and replace it.
The camera function is weak. This is undisputed. Compared with the same price camera phone, it is not as good as Zhiduoxing, which just reflects the powerful performance of Zhiduoxing high-end camera phone.
The sound quality is average, and Zhiduoxing does not justify this, but you can make up for some of the gaps through headphones, provided that you are willing to buy those expensive headphones.
For ordinary calls and watching videos, there is not much difference and it is not distorted.
The screen is a little smaller, it doesn’t affect it either. Many girls also said that it is more convenient to hold, and they can also operate the phone with one hand. Those smartphones with large screens can’t usually be held in one hand.
And because it is small, it is more convenient to carry and can be put into the pocket of the shirt.
There is no function to directly connect the printer to print, but you can use the data cable to transfer documents and other materials to the computer for printing. Anyway, the printer is generally connected to the computer.
You can surf the Internet, you can use some mobile social software, you can also play some simple mobile games, you can watch videos, you can take pictures, which is enough for ordinary people.
Even the two biggest requirements for ordinary users to use smartphones, one is to go online, and the other is to log in to social software, such as the penguin, fb, little yellow man or something.
This is also the suggestion Zhang Yang gave based on the experience of previous life. Simplify the functions of smart phones, allowing users to select software to download and install according to their needs.
Many of the software is free, but there are many that need to be paid, and the paid function is of course better.
In just one month, x3 sales rushed to 20 million units, and it is still growing rapidly. Some people even assert that x3 may be another machine king.
It has been several years since no King of Machine has appeared. Those top-selling mobile phones have reached tens of millions in the past two years, which is difficult to break through. Even the Nokia n95, which was so loud, failed to break through 100 million sales.
Everyone said that it is absolutely impossible to reach 100 million units of sales now, because the replacement of mobile phones is too fast. Last year’s style soon became backward and no one was interested.
Now finally there is another mobile phone with the potential of a giant machine king, which also makes consumers excited.
……
“Chairman, our mobile phone will definitely become the king of the machine, with sales exceeding 100 million units, laying a solid foundation for the company’s market share this year.” Duan Yongping said excitedly.
“Don’t just pay attention to htc or something, our biggest opponent is always Nokia.” Zhang Yang reminded.
“Nokia? Their new mobile phone is on the market. It sells for about $400. The sales volume can only be said to be unsatisfactory. It is completely competitive but our x3, our cheap.”
Cheap? The last Nokia product of the previous generation is the 5230 they launched this year, a touch-screen cheap smartphone with a retail price of only 149 euros, which is cheaper than the Zhiduoxing~www.mtlnovel.com~ was not just a physical store at the time , How many online stores rely on selling this phone, have been crowned.
“Have you thought that Nokia will launch a cheaper smartphone?”
“It’s cheaper? If it’s cheaper, what kind of money can I make? Although Nokia’s brand is well-known and the profits for retailers and dealers are low, the cost is here.”
“If they lower the price, they will really turn their smartphones into cheap machines, and they will definitely have to be deleted again. I can see that the camera function can be deleted, the screen can be reduced, the battery power can be reduced, and the memory can no longer be reduced. , But the chip can be lowered.”
“This seems to be really feasible, but the performance must be different from other mobile phones, so many performances are not as good as functional phones.” Duan Yongping analyzed.
“Remember our goal in research and development? Just lower some parameters to meet the needs of consumers. Nokia has always been good at cheap mobile phones, which is also a way for them to suppress other mobile phone manufacturers, allowing consumers to buy them no matter what mobile phone they need. Nokia’s.”
“Now there is a need for cheap smartphones in the market. If we reduce the price from three hundred dollars to two hundred dollars, they may lower it again. But it will not be too far apart.”
“But the price, the brand or something, we will have no advantage over Nokia, you are ready. Whether x3 can become a king, the only variable is Nokia!”
