[059] Lonely and widowed
The popularity of ancient vocabulary mobile phones is not only the ordinary consumers, but also the most concerned dealers at all levels. The "friendly businessmen" probably have to be the next level.
But this attitude is actually changing. At the beginning of the press conference, because Fang Changan wanted to "kill" the layers of interests of the dealers, most people either were hostile or disdainful of their online sales, and they all mean to be joked.
As the rush to buy and sell online, people started to buy and sell at a higher price, and these dealers quickly changed their attitudes one after another.
As for business, who will not be able to get along with money?
“Have you not replied yet?”
After May Day, Yunlong had early summer weather. Tong Qi was promoted to the company and made a cup of tea. Just as he was about to lift his legs on the table, he saw an old colleague who was half of his boss coming in and asked with a smile.
His mobile phone chain company is quite large, although it has not reached the level of being spread across the country, even if it looks across the country, it cannot be ignored. Its main business is in Shandong, Hebei, Anhui and Jiangsu.
After careful order, Tong Qisheng is considered the third in charge in the province. The person who came over was He Yong, the company's head in the province. The two have worked together for many years and have a good personal relationship, so Tong Qisheng is not polite.
As for what He Yong was upset, Tong Qisheng probably knew that Gu Ci mobile phones were so popular a few days ago. He himself was one of the company executives who noticed earlier. He discussed with He Yong, and then contacted the other company through the headquarters, hoping to cooperate.
However, I contacted me the afternoon before yesterday, and the other party knew that I had not replied to this day.
"Reply to nothing, it's better not to reply!"
He Yong sat down at the table, lit a cigarette, sucked half of it in one breath, and then vomited it out for a long time, "I said that the production capacity was insufficient, so I had to send the goods sold online first."
Tong Qisheng sat on the table with a teacup and said strangely: "You can order first!"
"Everyone is watching, who knows if you can get it."
He Yong was a little confused, and he didn't even notice that the Mediterranean was exposed. He took another breath and breathed a long sigh, "You said... this is a domestic mobile phone, labor and capital had never even heard of it before. After one month of release, the retail price was actually three to five hundred yuan higher by the official price, and he couldn't buy it even after taking the money! What's the matter?"
"This is clearly what I learned about apples."
Tong Qisheng tsk twice, "What a pity..."
He Yong put out his cigarette and asked, "What a pity?"
"It's a pity that I can't get the goods!"
Tong Qisheng sighed, "I have asked me several stores here. Think about it, it's three or four hundred more than the official price, and more than six hundred more! Even if the price difference is only two or three hundred, this fucking mobile phone can make a small amount of one thousand! Who is not jealous?"
"Then there is nothing we can do..."
He Yong sighed again, "Wait!"
He paused and said, "Actually, it's enough to have the courage to choose a mobile phone to start a business. How long has it been after the press conference? It seems that it's less than a month?"
"I heard that there are already 600,000 or 700,000 units online sales alone. This courage...tsk tsk..."
As an insider, he certainly knew the manufacturing process of mobile phones and the risks that need to be taken in such a business. He sighed: "If those posted online are true, then the one with the surname Fang will either be bold or have a mine at home..."
The first mobile phone in the business was shipped 600,000 to 700,000 in one month after the press conference. What does it mean? For comparison, after the Xiaomi mobile phone press conference in the previous life, reservations were opened for half a month! One thousand units were shipped in two months!
It’s not that Xiaomi can’t do it, it’s not that it dares to do it, because if it wants to ship the goods so quickly, it means it will be put into production before the press conference.
This is a real big bet. Once the bet is lost, it will never be solved by the company's bankruptcy. There is a high probability that Teacher Luo will end up (Luo is afraid to go bankrupt, and here it means paying off his debt).
It's even worse. After all, not everyone has the ability to repay hundreds of millions of debts in a year.
He Yong was sighing at the gap between people, but Tong Qisheng felt a flash of inspiration suddenly in his mind. He was silent for two seconds and finally captured it. He felt that what He Yong had just said was familiar, and instinctively felt that it seemed very important, so he frowned and thought hard, "What did you just say?"
"Standard..." He Yong was very surprised, "What's wrong?"
"No, no...you say what you just said again?"
Seeing his expression, He Yong didn't know what he was thinking, but he repeated it, "I just said... Speaking of which, a newly established company can have the courage to choose mobile phones to create..."
“Yes, yes!”
Tong Qisheng suddenly remembered, "Choose a mobile phone to start a business..."
His eyes widened and stared at He Yong, "You just said, what is the name of the boss of the ancient poetry company?"
He Yong was stunned for a moment, then thought hard, shook his head, "I forgot, I remember my surname is Fang... I should be able to find it online? What's wrong?"
Tong Qisheng ignored him, quickly took out his cell phone, opened the address book, then quickly flipped down, and finally slapped the table, his expression seemed extremely excited, and at the same time, he seemed to show a little shock and disbelief, "Fang Chang'an! The surname is Fang... hurry up! Check it out, is it called Fang Chang'an?"
"yes!"
After He Yong said that, he had already remembered that the boss of the ancient poetry company was indeed Fang Chang'an. When he saw Tong Qisheng seem to know him, he was also surprised and confused, "It is said that he is still in college... do you know him?"
“See once.”
Tong Qisheng had already completely remembered, "I met Shen Chengli's house this year for the Chinese New Year, he... Uh, his daughter's friend... At that time, Shen Chengli said that this guy was starting a business and still made a mobile phone. I laughed at him, but looking at Mr. Shen's face, he left a phone number and said that if he had any place to help, he could contact me..."
He said this and looked at He Yong, with a bitter smile on his lips, "In the end, I'll call him... How fucking!"
"Don't say these useless things, just contact me. I owe you what I want to eat... You're going to fight!"
"Blow your mother! How can I make the decision? Can I make the decision? What do I say after I beat you?"
Tong Qisheng felt both aggrieved and excited, and there was also a secretly comfortable feeling. He took the opportunity to control He Yong, who had been suppressing himself. "Work and capital should take the lead at most. Are you qualified to talk to others?"
"It makes sense too..."
"It makes sense, what's wrong with you?"
...
As time goes by, the production of mobile phones has been moving upward. On the one hand, the supply of parts will be more stable. On the other hand, as workers are proficient in craftsmanship, the yield rate will rise.
But it has not yet reached the point where the market can be filled. As of June, the offline premium of Guci mobile phones is still more than 200, and the price increase is basically 300.
In order to ensure the brand's popularity, he let go and even maintain this situation until he got a message.
Apple is going to hold a press conference!
The time is June 8th.
According to later experience, Apple's June press conferences were all software, such as macos, ios, etc., and occasionally updates some hardware, and they were pads, macbooks, and mobile phones were fixed in autumn.
But at this time, this "mode" has not been fixed.
Considering that it was the iPhone 3gs released on June 8 last year, plus some news from the supply chain, Fang Changan was basically sure that the iPhone 4 will be released this time!
This update is very big. In addition to the still stunning appearance and texture ten years later, there are many innovations that have continued, such as gyroscopes, front cameras, etc.
Fang Changan felt panic for a time, but soon calmed down because the target users of both sides rarely overlap, just like the Samsung S1 released earlier, and was not a rival to Guci Mobile.
The opponents of ancient poems are Apple and Samsung!
However, the emergence of online video calls will undoubtedly have a certain impact, mainly aimed at "Lingxi Voice" - in the past two months, there have been calls for adapting Lingxi Voice to other platforms, regardless of inside or outside the company.
Fang Chang'an also hesitated for a time, and wanted to make Lingxi independent. If he could replace WeChat in later generations, he would undoubtedly be a giant. However, after calming down, he still chose to give up, or restrain himself.
He was an early user of WeChat in his previous life and had a lot of dissatisfaction with WeChat, but WeChat still conquered cities and became a national-level application.
In addition to Tencent as a backing, the decisions of the WeChat team itself are undoubtedly crucial.
Fang Changan did not have the confidence to win the showdown with WeChat after winning.
After several considerations, he finally suppressed the proposal of "Lingxi" independence at an internal meeting and still implemented the original plan. "Lingxi" has always been an ancient word mobile phone, or "Luoshen System" Lingxi, and its positioning is Apple's facetime and Huawei's Changlian.
"After a few years, WeChat will unify the world. Maybe many people will find it online, saying that Fang Chang'an missed a great opportunity..."
After the meeting, he secretly laughed at himself.
He had learned about some storms about "WeChat" in his previous life. He vaguely remembered that when he registered with Tencent for 11 years, he found that he had been registered by a company in Beijing a few days ago. Later, he undoubtedly got the trademark.
The name of a product is one of the very important factors. The WeChat team will not change its name easily. Fang Changan’s “registration” is also for this. However, now I don’t plan to quarrel with this. In the long run, it is better to make a good relationship with this.
Of course, what is more important is that Shen Chengli now holds some Tencent shares. For the sake of his father-in-law, a trademark is nothing.
In the process of the rapid progress of ancient vocabulary mobile phones, at 1 a.m. on June 8, China time, at 2010, the sick Jobs held the last mobile phone press conference in his life, bringing the brand new design of the iPhone 4.
The front and rear glass and metal frames, like handicraft designs, stunning the world as soon as they were released.
Fang Chang'an watched the video of the press conference the next day. Influenced by him, Wang Ke, Shen Mo, Song Tang and other girls also learned about this phone the next day.
Shen Mo betrayed on the spot and sent him a text message: "Brother Chang'an, I'm sorry, I'm going to buy an iPhone 4, it's so beautiful! But I still know how to use the ancient ci phone, Momo~"
Perhaps in order to compensate for his injured heart, the little girl rarely took the initiative. Although she was in the text message, it was the first time she sent him the word "momo" that represents kiss.
Fang Changan didn't care. The little girl is an Apple fan, and the iPhone 4 is really good-looking. If he was not the boss, he probably wanted to get one to use it. By the way, even when Huawei phones had become the second largest in the world, Ren Woxing and his family would still use Apple's whole family buckets?
Of course he will not use Apple's products anymore. Mac and iPad are not counted. After all, he hasn't made it yet. The first generation of iPad was released in January this year. He gave Shen Mo and Wang Ke one to each and left one himself.
Of course, he doesn't use it himself, and he won't force a few girls to follow him. If one day he really relies on the product to let them use it, then he will feel like a "beautiful man trick".
Fortunately, Wang Ke and Song Tang didn't plan to change to iPhone 4, which made him feel a little comforted. Although he knew that this was probably because iPhone 4 was too expensive, he said he could give it to them, and they all refused.
——Well, Song Tang definitely doesn’t want her precious gifts, and Wang Ke definitely doesn’t want the things she gave her...
He comforted himself so much.
But Shen Mo quickly gave him a "surprise".
Perhaps because she felt that "rebellion" alone was too eye-catching. At the end of June, when she came to the capital, she brought three iPhone 4s, each of Wang Ke and Song Tang, one, and didn't know what method they used - it was probably to act coquettishly - Anyway, Song Tang and Wang Ke both followed her on the iPhone in the end.
Fang Chang'an suddenly changed from a majority to a minority.
However, the "surprise" she brought had not stopped, because when the summer vacation was over, she left the capital, kidnapped Wang Ke and Song Tang, and ran to Yunlong to work.
Chapter completed!
