Following Wei Qingfan's words, the three words "Manjianghong" appeared on the big screen behind him.
"This is a relatively well-known Ci brand name. There are many famous poems, including the one that everyone is familiar with, "Angry and Furious". We have made it the first mobile phone series name named after a Ci brand under the ancient Ci brand.
"This is the first generation of Azuma mobile phone we bring to everyone."
At the top of the big screen, under the words "Manjianghong", a promotional picture of a mobile phone appeared.
Many people were secretly disappointed when they saw the pictures at the scene and in front of the live broadcast room.
Because at first glance, this phone looks...not high-end!
The front looks a bit like the first-generation Guci mobile phone. The screen doesn't look too big. It has a slender 16:9 screen. The top is the earpiece, camera, etc., and the bottom is three touch buttons painted red.
The back is also a relatively common layout, with the camera in the upper left corner, the familiar "Ci" logo in the upper center, and a small font at the bottom with the words "Man Jiang Hong" engraved on it, indicating that this phone is
series name.
This is a very common look for Android phones nowadays, but after the simple and elegant appearance of the round buttons at the last press conference, this one looks a bit backward.
What's more, the quality of this mobile phone is not very good at first glance. Not to mention compared with Jiangjinjiu, it can be seen at a glance that it is lagging behind compared with Guci 2.
Even the color, the casing of this phone looks gray.
"This is our Azolla mobile phone."
Wei Qingfan took out a mobile phone from his hand. The real thing was dusty, inconspicuous, and not beautiful. As a result, some people at the scene cheered and applauded enthusiastically, but the response from the entire scene was not very enthusiastic.
To be honest, most fans are disappointed at this time.
The same is true for Chen Xiaoming. He didn't expect that Wei Qingfan would actually release such a mobile phone. However, he quickly comforted himself: "It is indeed a low-end mobile phone, it is estimated to be 1299. It will be compared with the Xiaomi Youth Edition. It may be available in the future."
cheaper……"
"Damn it, you just posted this?"
"Slip away"
“It’s really a low-end phone.”
"I told you, it must be the benchmark for Xiaomi Youth Edition."
"1299 is okay, I don't know what kind of processor it is"
"I hope it can be cheaper, 1099, right?"
“Definitely a bit disappointed”
…
In the live broadcast room barrage, everyone was also talking a lot, but they were all not very interested.
“Our Manjianghong mobile phone has a 4.0-inch large screen, which is larger than the iPhone 4S screen, and the screen resolution reaches 850*480!
"It is equipped with MediaTek MTK6578M processor, which is a dual-core processor customized by us in cooperation with MediaTek. It supports 3G, has a main frequency of 1.1GHz, and uses a 50nm process technology. It has very powerful performance and very low power.
Consumption..."
The main frequency of the MSM8255 installed on the first generation Guci mobile phone reached 1.4GHz. Although the default is 1GHz and the Guci company has limited the frequency, everyone has become accustomed to the data, not to mention the 8260 main frequency installed on Guci 2.
It even reached 1.5GHz. This data does not arouse everyone’s interest.
"4 inches?"
“Didn’t I say that big screens are the future?”
“Finally another 4-inch mobile phone is released hahahaha”
"Stop being funny, this is obviously a low-end phone."
“Why do you feel that Mr. Wei uses screen size to divide the price of mobile phones?”
"You can actually customize the processor?"
"It's definitely possible. The iPhone 4's processor is customized from Samsung."
There were various discussions in the live broadcast room, and many people no longer cared much about the press conference, because they all have better mobile phones in their hands, so they are naturally not interested in this lower-positioned mobile phone.
"In addition, the Azuma mobile phone has 512M of running memory and 2G of body storage..."
When Wei Qingfan told this parameter, there was absolutely no doubt that it was a low-end mobile phone. Many people lost interest, but many people suddenly became energetic.
Therefore, although Guci mobile phones have always been considered to be very cost-effective, the price in 1999 is still too expensive compared to the consumption level of the vast majority of Chinese people today!
Even the Youth Edition is priced at 1,499, which is still expensive for many people!
As for the current Manjianghong mobile phone, its configuration seems to be low-end - at least the low-end of Guci mobile phones. The processor is MediaTek and the memory is 512. This is very similar to the configuration of the Youth Edition.
But there is already a youth version, and it has only been released for four months. It is impossible to release a new model now, right?
Therefore, many people think that the price of this phone will be lower!
"Sure enough, 1299 didn't run away!"
"I think it might be lower, 1199?"
"Can't it be cheaper?"
…
There was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room, and Wei Qingfan started to introduce other configurations:
“Our Azolla mobile phone has two built-in cameras, the rear camera reaches 500 pixels! It has a flash and a front camera of 300,000 pixels!
"The Azolla mobile phone has a large 1900 mAh battery! It can be used for two days without charging... The back cover can be removed and the battery can be replaced...
"Azolla mobile phone is based on our latest Luoshen system version 3.3. We have made a lot of optimizations for Azolla..."
Luoshen System 3.3 is the next larger version to be updated, and it has not been officially launched yet. "Of course, our other mobile phones, including JiuCi Mobile 2 and Youth Edition, will also soon push version 3.3 updates."
Wei Qingfan also talked about the content of the system update. Obviously, Azolla will not have any exclusive functions.
At this point in the press conference, whether they were fans before the live broadcast, digital enthusiasts, or fans at the scene, most people were not interested in this phone, and only a few people were more concerned about it.
This is a very normal thing. Most of the digital enthusiasts can afford a mobile phone, or have already gritted their teeth and bought one. This is probably the standard model of Guci, or a future mobile phone, or even a more expensive mobile phone.
, naturally there are many mobile phones with a high probability of selling for 1299.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, some people became even more worried after seeing these configuration parameters.
For example, Lei Jun.
Seeing this, he was completely sure that this Azolla phone was positioned as his own Redmi phone!
This is a bolt from the blue for Xiaomi, because Gushici Company’s shipment volume is larger and it has higher bargaining power with suppliers!
The positioning of Redmi mobile phones has extremely low profits, so it is difficult to keep the price down...
The only hope now is that Wei Qingfan is not so ruthless and leaves some profit margin for Redmi.
"I hope..."
He prayed secretly.
Just like fans and digital enthusiasts have mixed reactions, there are also many people in the industry who look down upon Wei Qingfan's actions.
For example, Huang Zhang.
"What the hell?"
When Huang Zhang saw this, he couldn't help laughing, "How dare you sell it? It looks similar to the youth version, but can it be sold at a lower price?"
Bai Yongxiang pondered: "Want to expand the user base? Momentum?"
"What's the use of the low-end market? It's just a bit of residual soup."
Huang Zhang disagreed very much, "The high-end market is the hard nut. I originally thought they were going to enter the wine market and establish a separate brand. How determined are they...that's it?"
"The profits in the low-end market are not high, but with more users, you can make money through advertising."
Bai Yongxiang already has a certain understanding of ancient words and Xiaomi's Internet operations. Internet thinking, to put it bluntly, is to invest money first and then make money.
"A good mobile phone has become an advertising machine."
Huang Zhang is even more unhappy. He is essentially a "craftsman" and is more willing to devote his energy to product polishing and experience. Historically, Meizu mobile phones have led the entire Android mobile phone industry in many aspects. This is different from Huang Zhang.
Zhang himself cannot escape the relationship.
But on the other hand, he is also a businessman and boss, and he also pursues profit. Seeing that both Gu Shici and Xiaomi make money through system advertising, it is inevitable that he will be a little jealous.
I am very confused. I want to make this money, but I feel it is too low and not decent enough.
"This is the Manjianghong mobile phone we brought to you today..."
At this moment, Wei Qingfan's voice came from the computer live broadcast and began to summarize, which meant that the phone was finished and only the selling price was left.
"It has a 4-inch large screen, 1.1GHz dual-core processor, 512M large memory, 5 million super large pixel camera, 1900 mAh large battery..."
At the press conference and in the live broadcast room, even people who had no interest in this phone became interested at this time and wanted to see how much this phone would cost.
"1299 is gone!"
“I also think 1299 is just for Xiaomi Youth Edition.”
“Thank you Xiaomi and thank you Mr. Lei”
