Chapter 445 Mobile Phone Release

Originally, it was expected to be around 30 million units, but it was unexpectedly exceeded by nearly 2 million units in the end.

When he finally saw the sales record, Lei Jun was ecstatic.

For so many years, Xiaomi mobile phones looked very powerful, but in fact, they were only tied with several other mobile phone companies in the low-end market.

The release of the sizzling series of mobile phones this time can be said to have made a beautiful comeback.

"Sales have dropped a lot this month. According to current sales statistics, it should be able to stabilize at around 12 million units." Lei Jun continued.

It was released in April for the first month, and the popularity was the highest. Coupled with the support of fans and the sense of freshness, the monthly sales reached more than 30 million units, and almost all the ones that should be bought were sold.

Sales fell sharply in May, and it was almost stable in June and July.

According to Lei Jun's estimate, the sales of Xiaomi's sizzling series of mobile phones will be around 8 million units per month, and the annual sales will be nearly 100 million units.

This number is already quite a lot. The annual sales volume of mobile phones in China is only about 290 million units, and the Xiaomi Hot Series can sell one-third of the market share.

With the continuous fermentation of word-of-mouth, by next year, this number may exceed 150 million units, occupying half of the market.

By then, the annual revenue of the Xiaomi Hot Series will exceed 300 billion.

Gao Yuan did not have high requirements for Yuanfang mobile phones. In the first year, the sales volume reached 50 million units, and in the second year, the sales volume reached 70 million units, and the total sales volume exceeded 350 billion.

There is no way. The domestic high-end market is relatively small, and most people still use low-end and medium-priced mobile phones.

The combined sales volume of the Xiaomi Hot Series and Yuanfang mobile phone series will exceed 220 million units next year, accounting for 70% of the domestic mobile phone market.

By the third year, this number will exceed 90%.

"Yes, the Xiaomi Hot Series is selling well, which is a good start." Gao Yuan nodded, "When the statistics come out at the end of the year, let's have a celebration banquet together."

May 27th.

It is a good day for traveling, signing contracts, trading, buying houses, opening businesses, and breaking ground.

At 7:30 in the evening, Gao Yuan came to the backstage of a large auditorium.

Yuanfang Mobile will hold a press conference here.

Gao Yuan wore casual clothes and tried to make himself look more approachable.

Lin Wanyu on the side helped Gao Yuan to tidy up his clothes, Xiao Xiao helped Gao Yuan with massage, and Li Mengqing was temporarily responsible for the preparations for the press conference.

This year, Li Mengqing's genes as a strong woman were completely activated.

She worked harder than Xiao Xiao to do things.

She held a walkie-talkie in her left hand and an A4 paper in her right hand, and checked the entire press conference site for the last time according to the process and layout on the A4 paper.

Gao Yuan turned on his mobile phone and shot a video, "Brothers, the press conference will be held in half an hour. I am a little nervous. Is there any way to relieve the tension?"

Just a video shot in the face was sent to Gao Yuan's personal account.

In fact, Gao Yuan was not nervous, but just wanted to mobilize the emotions of those netizens online and increase the discussion among netizens.

As soon as this video was posted, those netizens who were waiting for the press conference to start quickly left messages under this video.

"Mr. Gao, I have a way to solve the nervousness. You give me the company and all the money, and I will hold the press conference. You can lie in the room and enjoy the air conditioning and use your phone. You will never be nervous."

"I didn't expect Mr. Gao to be nervous one day. I was also nervous when I was speaking on the stage. I = Mr. Gao."

"Mr. Gao, to tell you the truth, I am your long-lost brother. I heard that you are nervous now. I feel nervous because I am close to you. When will you take me home?"

"..."

Those people in the comment area were posting comments while waiting for the online press conference to start.

At this time, outside the auditorium, thousands of invited fans were queuing at the gate to check their tickets.

In order to prevent someone from being lucky enough to receive the invitation letter and then selling it at a high price, Gao Yuan set a rule that the invitation letter must be bound to the individual's ID number.

So when entering, not only do you have to scan the code, but you also have to scan your ID card.

At about 7:50, most of the audience came in one after another.

The live broadcast room was also opened at this time, and the sound engineer and photographer were checking the equipment and adjusting the angle.

At eight o'clock, Gao Yuan walked to the center of the stage, and all the spotlights were on Gao Yuan.

At this moment, Gao Yuan was the center of attention.

There was warm applause from the audience. The live broadcast room originally had one million viewers, and now within just one minute, the number of viewers surged to five million.

"Dear friends, welcome to the launch conference of Yuanfang Mobile Phone."

Gao Yuan bowed to the people in the audience.

The applause was even more enthusiastic, and the number of people in the live broadcast room continued to soar.

"Last year, I sat down with several executives of Yuanfang Group and chatted. We talked about mobile phones. At present, domestic mobile phones have many advantages, but the disadvantages are also obvious, so we discussed and planned to make mobile phones."

"From planning to establish the Yuanfang mobile phone brand, it took less than half an hour to finalize. We plan to make a product that the audience will like to see."

"The idea of ​​Yuanfang Mobile Phone came from a few years ago. At that time, I wanted to make a mobile phone. Many ideas came to my mind. The first was the mobile phone system. Every year, our domestic mobile phones have to pay a lot of patent fees to foreign countries."

"At that time, only foreign countries had patents and technologies for mobile phone systems. To use their systems, you not only need to pay patent fees, but also look at their faces. Once those system vendors are unhappy, they can terminate the cooperation at any time. Our domestic mobile phone companies are cautious and try to maintain the relationship with system vendors."

"And today, our Yuanfang mobile phone has developed its own system, and we no longer have to be controlled by others..."

When Gao Yuan was telling the history of development, the audience in the live broadcast room had already poured in 10 million people.

Li Mengqing operated the background and sent a red envelope worth 100 million yuan.

"Boss is generous, boss is open-minded."

"Over the years, I have watched many live broadcasts, and they all gave gifts to the anchors. I didn't expect that Mr. Gao would actually send me a red envelope."

"Mr. Gao, why don't you close the reward for this press conference? I will give you a few small hearts. I don't want anything else, I just want to hear you say thank you, big brother."

"..."

Compared to the comments in the online live broadcast room that are constantly swiping the screen, in the offline live broadcast room and the auditorium, these audiences are quiet, listening to Gao Yuan's speech.

Li Mengqing instructed the staff beside her, "When the number of viewers in the live broadcast room reaches 15 million, send a red envelope of 300 million. When the number reaches about 20 million and the press conference is about to end, send another red envelope of 600 million."

"Don't set the middle red envelope of 300 million to be divided equally, but change it to be based on luck. Some people are lucky, and they get as much as they can."

Maybe someone can grab a few million at this press conference, and instantly become rich overnight and become a lucky person.

Maybe it can even be on the hot search again.

Next time Gao Yuan broadcasts live, there will be more viewers pouring in. They also want to try their luck. Maybe they will become the lucky one too?

The popularity of the live broadcast room can be increased a lot.

On the stage, Gao Yuan continued his speech, "Looking back on the road ahead, it was all long and tortuous. I was also confused. Several executives of the company advised me that we only need to be a supplier of mobile phones and provide them with advanced system technology. We only earn patent fees. Whether the mobile phone is successfully sold or not, we will make money."

"Some people also think that the current mobile phone market has been monopolized by several mobile phone companies. If we had entered the market fifteen years ago, we might have had a chance to compete with those mobile phone manufacturers. But entering the market now requires a huge cost, which is not worth the loss."

"And I made a firm decision. We must make mobile phones, and we must make mobile phones that everyone likes. Our Yuanfang Mobile Phones must be disruptors, let the mobile phone industry roll up, and redefine standards to let those mobile phone manufacturers understand that mobile phones cannot be fooled, and must always be attentive..."

At this time, the number of people in the live broadcast room has exceeded 18 million.

Ten minutes after the broadcast, 38 million people watched online at the same time.

With Gao Yuan's passionate speech, about fifteen minutes later, the number of people in the live broadcast room officially exceeded 50 million.

Gao Yuan broke his own record again.

Half an hour later, the number exceeded 65 million, reaching a climax.

At this time, Gao Yuan began to announce the price of Yuanfang mobile phones.

"After unanimous consultation by our Yuanfang Group, the basic model of Yuanfang mobile phone is priced at 5999 yuan. This phone adopts a brand-new system design. Compared with the systems of friendly companies, we are not only far ahead, but also completely surpassed!"

"At the same time, Yuanfang mobile phone 1 series pro version is priced at pro9999 yuan, and the flagship version is priced at 19999 yuan. At the same time, our Yuanfang mobile phone has also launched a founder version, which will be equipped with our Yuanfang Group's latest 1 nanometer chip, priced at 99999 yuan."

"The founder version is limited to 10,000 units. In order to avoid someone mistakenly taking a photo, we must meet certain conditions when purchasing the founder version."

"..."

As Gao Yuan revealed the price of Yuanfang mobile phone 1 series, the emotions of the audience in the live broadcast room instantly exploded.

"5999 yuan, it doesn't seem cheap."

"It's OK as long as it's good to use, no matter if it's cheap or not. In fact, sometimes I think you people who buy low-end mobile phones are rich people. Buying high-end mobile phones may seem expensive, costing five or six thousand yuan, but they can be used for at least two or three years or even three or four years. Low-end mobile phones cost one or two thousand yuan, and they will burst after about a year, and you have to buy a new phone."

"That's right, I also want to place an order this time to experience it. I'm an old fan of Mr. Gao, I must support!"

"..."

In the auditorium, the audience applauded for a long time.

Gao Yuan had a hunch that a new round of changes in the mobile phone industry was about to begin.

In the background of Youni app and the official website of Yuanfang Mobile Phone, countless netizens flocked in and planned to buy Yuanfang Mobile Phone.

On the statistics page, click the mouse to refresh, and more than 100,000 orders are immediately added.

Then, Li Mengqing clicked the background again, and the order volume became 200,000 units.

So fast?

Li Mengqing glanced at the time. It had only been less than half a minute, and there were so many orders.

In the following time, Li Mengqing refreshed the page every minute, watching the changes in the numbers on it, and felt indescribably excited.

An hour later, the number of orders exceeded two million units!

Until Gao Yuan came out of the press conference, he was somewhat surprised to see this number.

At the same time, clips of Gao Yuan's press conference appeared on major short video platforms, and more and more people saw Gao Yuan's live broadcast and learned about Yuanfang Mobile Phone.

"Mr. Gao!"

Lei Jun walked into the backstage and greeted Gao Yuan.

Next to Lei Jun, there was a middle-aged man standing.

"This is Mr. Xu of Warwick Group." Lei Jun introduced.

"Hello, Mr. Gao!"

Mr. Xu took the lead in greeting Gao Yuan.

"Hello, Mr. Xu!"

Gao Yuan shook hands with him and welcomed him to attend this press conference.

"When you were live just now, Mr. Gao, I watched the whole thing, especially when you talked about the Yuanfang Mobile Phone Series 1, I couldn't help but order one." Mr. Xu said, "I have to admit that although Yuanfang Mobile Phone developed relatively late, it is ahead of everyone."

It was not until he personally experienced this press conference that Mr. Xu understood why Yuanfang Group could reach this point today.

Their chairman Gao Yuan is a huge hot spot with tens of millions of fans.

With so many fans supporting us, no matter what we do, we will get twice the result with half the effort.

Moreover, Yuanfang Group also pays special attention to research and development. It seems that their Huawei Group's mobile phone business is facing a huge crisis.

"Mr. Gao, you taught me a lesson today."

Mr. Xu said, "The success of Yuanfang mobile phones is inevitable. I hope that everyone in our Huawei Group will learn from you."

"Mr. Xu is too polite. Whether it is the mobile phone industry or corporate development, Huawei Group is our predecessor." Gao Yuan said.

Huawei Group has grown and developed thirty years ago.

In the long river of history, many companies have prospered and then declined rapidly, but Huawei has always stood firm.

Gao Yuan dare not underestimate this company.

"The first to achieve is the first, and it is meaningless to talk about seniority. Mr. Gao has developed Yuanfang Group to its current level in just a few years. There are still many things that our Huawei Group needs to learn from you."

Mr. Xu said, "When I go back, I will definitely hold a board meeting to let the company's executives learn and discuss the Yuanfang model."

It was not until this press conference that Mr. Xu felt scared.

Originally, they thought they had no rivals in the domestic mobile phone market and only had to face Apple phones. Unexpectedly, Yuanfang Mobile attacked strongly and broke the two-way split situation.

If they continue to develop at this rate, with good luck, they can split the market into three parts. If they are unlucky, I am afraid that neither Huawei Mobile nor Apple Mobile can gain a foothold in the mobile phone industry.

The impact brought by Yuanfang Mobile is so great that it makes Mr. Xu a little flustered.

"By the way, can I ask how many orders have been placed for Yuanfang Mobile now?" (End of this chapter)
