Chapter 139 The Difficulties Faced by Apple!
Huawei Mobile's new product launch event came to an end amidst cheers.
The success of this press conference is obviously unmatched by all other mobile phone conferences.
At the end of the press conference, Yu Chengdong, the CEO of Huawei Mobile, announced a big news in front of everyone, that is, in order to reward the long-awaited netizens from all over the world, Huawei is going to take out 10 million units in advance. "Cicada Wing" mobile phone, put it on its official website for sale, while stocks last.
Moreover, Hua Wei Company will entrust Jiang's Shipping to deliver the Cicada Wing mobile phone to the ordering user in the fastest way!
This time, all the media reporters and guests present, as well as the netizens who watched the press conference through the live webcast, completely fell into madness.
You know, according to the original plan, the official sale of the "Cicada Wing" mobile phone will be delivered to all parts of the world through air and sea logistics on the day after the press conference, and then sold on the spot.
In this way, it will take at least two or three days before netizens want to experience the style and performance of the first generation of flexible mobile phones. This is obviously a great torture for netizens who have just watched the press conference. .
However, the "easter egg" at the press conference came unexpectedly!
It is definitely a great blessing to be able to place an order from Huawei's official website and get the exclusive express service of Jiang's Shipping Company!
For a moment, all the media reporters and guests present gave up their work, took out their mobile phones, and logged in to Huawei's official website, and the netizens who were watching the live broadcast also logged in to Huawei's official website as quickly as possible.
A massive sale event has officially kicked off!
However, compared with the hundreds of millions of netizens, the 10 million Cicada Wing mobile phones prepared by Hua Wei Company today are obviously not enough to grab.
As a result, in just a few minutes, the tens of millions of Cicada Wing mobile phones were snapped up. This made many netizens who moved a step slower immediately beat their chests and feet with great regret.
"His grandma's, I logged on to Hua Wei's official website as soon as I heard Yu Dazui's announcement, but I haven't snatched it yet, you beasts!"
"Weeping dizzy! Twelve years of hard training on the unicorn arm, but you still can't beat you big hands!"
"Has anyone snatched it? I'm willing to pay twice the price to buy it!"
"Hahahaha! I snatched it! And the price is so cheap, only $960!"
"My God! Is it so cheap? By the way, it's much cheaper than Apple X, right?"
"Thank you Jiangdao Master, the conscientious product is not like a certain apple, whose heart is blackened to carbon, and it is specially used to slap my middle-class wool!"
"That's right! The price of 960 US dollars is really cheap. You must know that this is a new generation of flexible mobile phones!"
"Master Jiang Dao is so conscientious, he was moved to the point of crying, I was thinking of selling a kidney, hahahaha, now I don't need it!"
"Although I didn't grab it, I am very happy to see this price. I hope I can buy it in a physical store in three days!"
...
Although the first batch of Cicada Wing mobile phones were sold out in just a few minutes, the netizens who did not get them were disappointed, but the price revealed on the official website made many netizens extremely excited!
Because this price is cheaper than the previous well-known brands such as Apple and Samsung. This is undoubtedly a very conscientious technology product.
Therefore, the response on the Internet is very enthusiastic, and everyone has more expectations for the new product of flexible mobile phones.
And at the same time.
America.
Cupertino, California.
Apple's "spaceship" headquarters building, a spacious meeting room, the atmosphere is a bit dignified.
Apple CEO Tim Cook sat at the top, looking at the price of the "Cicada Wing" mobile phone displayed on Huawei's official website without blinking, with a dignified look on his face.
Speaking of Cook's heart, he is very depressed now!
The hot sales of Huawei mobile phones has long been expected by him, and he is even ready to meet the challenge of flexible technology.
It was in this situation that he finally acquired Samsung Electronics through his upper-level connections.
You must know that although Samsung Electronics has been reduced to the point where everyone is screaming, it is a very powerful electronics company after all, especially in LCD technology, which has an innate advantage that Apple cannot match.
And he integrated Samsung Electronics in order to make efforts in flexible technology, catch up with Emerald Island, and then regain the initiative in the mobile phone market!
However, because it is more than one step behind Emerald Island, it is by no means so easy for technology to chase action.
Therefore, in order to retain users of Apple mobile phones, he must launch several new products currently in his hands, and then make efforts to flexible technology.
In Cook's view, Emerald Island, in conjunction with China's four major mobile phone giants, is fully promoting the behavior of flexible mobile phones. Although it can dominate the future mobile phone market to a large extent, it is impossible to occupy the entire market.
The main reason is, the price!
That's right!
The production cost of a new generation of technological products such as flexible mobile phones must be extremely high, which leads to its selling price, which will never be low, and even far exceeds the price of Apple mobile phones.
In this way, there are still a small number of users in the world who can really afford flexible mobile phones.
And other users have become potential customers of Apple mobile phones. Today's Apple has successfully integrated Samsung, which allows it to further reduce the production of finished products.
As a result, the high price of Apple mobile phones, which has always been criticized by the general public, can be reduced, which has become its major advantage.
Therefore, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible for Huawei and other four major mobile phone manufacturers to completely steal Apple's market space. This is one of the important reasons why Cook is not panicked even though he knows that he is facing changes in the mobile phone era.
However.
All of this, after he logged on to the official website of Huawei mobile phone and saw the price of the "Cicada Wing" mobile phone, it all came to naught!
$960!
This is even cheaper than an iPhone!
Is this guy crazy?
Can such pricing make money?
In an instant, Cook's eyes showed an incredible look, and at the same time, various thoughts emerged in Cook's mind.
This is impossible!
Such a low price is because it is far lower than the production cost of flexible mobile phones!
This is a conspiracy!
This is the conspiracy of Emerald Isle!
It wants to unite with the four mobile phone giants in Huaguo to completely defeat Apple!
After some thought, Cook could only come to one conclusion.
That is, Emerald Island united with the four mobile phone giants of Huaguo to seize the mobile phone market share first at a huge loss of cost, and then forced Apple to fight a price war with it, and finally fell into bankruptcy because of insolvency!
