Chapter 446 The Lucky One

Mr. Xu was quite curious about this question.

However, this kind of thing is usually a secret within the company. Unless Yuanfang Group wants everyone to know, no one can know the detailed data, and can only roughly estimate it.

"How many units have been ordered now?"

Gao Yuan looked at Li Mengqing on the side and asked.

"Wait a minute, I'll refresh it."

Li Mengqing refreshed the page on the computer, "So far, the number of orders has exceeded three million units."

Just as they were talking, the number of users placing orders increased again.

This is also due to the end of the press conference. Many people went to the official website to place orders after watching it.

Mr. Xu glanced at the time. From the time the purchase channel was opened to now, it has been less than an hour and a half.

Three million units were ordered in ninety minutes, with an average of 33,300 users placing orders every minute, and an average of nearly 550 units placed orders per second.

So terrifying!

When Huawei mobile phone was released, the results achieved were not even half as good as Yuanfang mobile phone.

"It seems that our Huawei Group is going to give up the mobile phone business." Mr. Xu smiled bitterly.

Compared with Yuanfang Mobile Phone, the entire Huawei Mobile Phone has no advantage at all.

Originally, Huawei Group's biggest advantage is its self-developed system and chips, and Yuanfang Group is also developing its own system. The system has been released and the chips are about to start mass production.

Their chips are actually 1 nanometer!

This technology alone is enough to shock the whole world.

I just don't know how many they have mass-produced.

According to Mr. Xu's estimate, it should not have been put into large-scale production yet, otherwise it would not only be installed for the founding version, and it would be limited to 10,000 units.

"Mr. Xu is joking. Let's develop together, occupy the domestic market together, and strive to kick Apple phones out of the country as soon as possible." Gao Yuan said.

"By the way, Mr. Gao, I am very interested in the founding version of Yuanfang Mobile Phone. I wonder what conditions are required to buy this phone?" Mr. Xu asked.

At the press conference, Mr. Xu was very curious.

In fact, not only Mr. Xu, but netizens on the entire Internet are very curious.

At this press conference, Gao Yuan was on 23 hot searches in total.

The top trending search was "Yuanfang Mobile Phone was officially released, with a starting price of 5,999 yuan."

The number of views for this trending search reached about 150 million, which is equivalent to 150 million people knowing the news.

This is only the data for a few hours tonight. By tomorrow, I am afraid that 300 to 400 million people will see the relevant videos.

Most netizens are quite satisfied with Gao Yuan. Products produced by Yuanfang Group must be high-quality products.

They believe that the performance of Yuanfang mobile phones must be good, and buying them is a good deal.

Some netizens are skeptical and think that Yuanfang Mobile Phone is just making mobile phones for the first time. They have no experience and will definitely fail in the high-end market.

For these netizens, Gao Yuan also let them speak freely and did not let You APP control the comments.

Only when they really use Yuanfang mobile phones will they know the superiority of Yuanfang mobile phones.

The second trending search is about grabbing red envelopes. Unexpectedly, there is actually a lucky person this time. Someone tried his luck and grabbed a red envelope of 3.8 million yuan, which is the largest red envelope amount so far.

After he posted the screenshot, it instantly attracted the attention of countless netizens, all of whom were in his comment area to get some good luck.

This is a huge sum of nearly four million! For ordinary people, as long as they don't buy a house in a first-tier city and only live in a second- or third-tier city, they can live a life without worries about food and clothing.

A huge sum of 3.8 million, with a bank interest rate of 3%, is about 115,000 yuan per year, which is equivalent to a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan.

For people in first-tier cities, a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan may not be a big deal, but for people in second- or third-tier cities, or even third- or fourth-tier cities, a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan is definitely a high income.

In addition, there are three people who have grabbed red envelopes of more than one million yuan, and they have also posted videos on short video platforms to show off.

There are also dozens of fans who have grabbed red envelopes of hundreds of thousands, and hundreds of fans who have grabbed red envelopes of tens of thousands.

Although it is not as outrageous as 3.8 million, tens of thousands of yuan can also temporarily improve the lives of these people recently.

This is a lucky red envelope. Some people get more money, and some get less. Many people posted screenshots of themselves getting one cent and burst into tears.

When this hot search came out, many netizens who did not go to Gao Yuan's live broadcast room to watch regretted and wanted to slap themselves twice.

According to Gao Yuan's idea, 1 billion cash live broadcast benefits were taken out and 20 million people were competing. If it was distributed evenly, each person could only get about 50 yuan.

Some people think it's troublesome and are too lazy to watch it. They think 50 yuan is nothing.

But when the screenshots of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and millions of yuan came out, they were not calm.

Take a chance, a bicycle becomes a motorcycle, who knows if they will be the next lucky one? If it doesn't work, it's not bad to grab a few thousand or tens of thousands of yuan.

The third hot search is about the performance of Yuanfang Group's mobile phones. Many bloggers posted videos to predict the situation of Yuanfang mobile phones.

These analysis videos are true and false. Some people are really capable. When analyzing Yuanfang mobile phones, they are very knowledgeable and speak to Gao Yuan's heart.

There are also bloggers who are just criticizing for the sake of criticizing. It is obvious that they are paid.

The videos they posted seem fair and just, but in fact they praise Apple phones and belittle Yuanfang phones.

It was not until the fourth hot search that they asked what the requirements were for buying the Yuanfang Founder Edition.

Mr. Xu was also interested in this, but no one on the Internet has answered it yet.

Gao Yuan did not intend to beat around the bush, but said directly, "The company needs to be established for more than three years, and for three consecutive years, the company's net profit must be greater than five million."

It seems very demanding, but there are many bosses who can meet this condition.

"What if it is a listed company, but the financial report has been in the red for several consecutive years?"

Lei Jun asked, "Mr. Gao, there are many such people. Although they are losing money, their company's market value is also hundreds of billions."

"Hahaha, this situation must be treated differently. The market value is there. Even if there is no net profit in three years, it can be sold to them," Gao Yuan said, "Since Yuanfang Group intends to make Yuanfang mobile phones a high-end brand, it must create exclusive mobile phones for some people with status and position."

There are 10,000 limited editions, each priced at about 17,000 yuan, and it can make about 170 million yuan in the end.

Compared with the final revenue of the three series of Yuanfang mobile phones, the basic, pro, and deluxe versions, it is definitely not enough. When this series of mobile phones is finally loaded together, the total sales will exceed more than 300 billion.

But Gao Yuan did this purely to increase the fame of Yuanfang Mobile Phone.

When most celebrities, entrepreneurs, and bosses started using this phone, it was equivalent to invisibly cheering for Yuanfang Mobile Phone.

Those employees thought that even their bosses were using Yuanfang Mobile Phone, which meant that Yuanfang Mobile Phone must have good performance.

So they automatically converted to Yuanfang Mobile Phone users.

The launch of the founding version of this mobile phone can be said to kill two birds with one stone, which can make money and make those bosses cheer.

"I thought Mr. Lei was a genius in marketing, but now it seems that Mr. Gao is the real genius."

Mr. Xu couldn't help but say.

This marketing method looks simple, but it actually covers many complex factors.

Only Gao Yuan can do this, because he is the richest man in China. When he uses the founding version of Yuanfang Mobile Phone, many business owners will definitely imitate and learn from him.

Gao Yuan is equivalent to a walking GG spokesperson. Because of his IP, Yuanfang Group saves at least tens of billions of GG fees every year.

After the press conference, Yuanfang Group held a celebration banquet.

As the host, Gao Yuan invited celebrities from Hangzhou to attend the banquet. Dignitaries, entrepreneurs, celebrities, etc. all came to attend. Zhejiang University also sent representatives to participate in this event.

Gao Yuan was a little disgusted with this kind of activity, but there was nothing he could do. Who made him the host?

Gao Yuan toasted the important guests and chatted with them.

When he walked in front of President Huang of Zhejiang University, he saw President Huang raise his glass first, "Congratulations to Gao Yuan for his achievements in the field of mobile phones. We have discussed it and plan to nominate you as one of the top ten outstanding alumni for the 130th anniversary of the founding of the school."

According to Gao Yuan's current contributions, he deserves this position.

Not to mention that Gao Yuan is the richest man, his donation of 10 billion to Zhejiang University alone has created an unprecedented record of alumni donations.

"I am flattered by the school's love." Gao Yuan said, "I graduated from Zhejiang University. The school has trained me for four years. Now I have achieved academic success and I should give back to my alma mater."

...

At the same time as Gao Yuan held a celebration banquet, the regional headquarters of Fruit Mobile in China.

Ge Xin was born in Liao Province, northeast China. After graduating from high school, she went abroad to study. She obtained a bachelor's degree and a master's degree from Simon Fraser University, and then went to the University of California, Berkeley to obtain a master's degree in business administration.

Since then, she has been working abroad. She has a technical background and focuses on research and development. She has led the wireless technology software team of Fruit Mobile for nine years and has participated in the wifi, Bluetooth, NFC, positioning and motion technologies of Fruit Mobile many times. She also led the development of Fruit Payment, HomeKit and CarPlay.

Eight years ago, Ge Xin was promoted to vice president of Fruit Mobile and managing director of China, reporting directly to CEO Cook.

She is the only Asian executive in the Fruit Mobile Group.

At this time, Ge Xin was meeting with a group of heads of the China Division. Two hours later, she had to hold a video conference with the head office.

"Mr. Ge, I also watched the launch conference of Yuanfang Mobile. I think they are very boastful, and the actual product must be very poor."

A person in charge said.

"That's right!" Another person in charge echoed, "They also said they would come up with a 1-nanometer chip and made a founding edition phone, priced at 17,000. This price is too outrageous, and can they really make a 1-nanometer chip? I doubt it."

That's a 1-nanometer chip. Most machines now are only equipped with 5-nanometer and 7-nanometer chips.

Fruit Mobile is one of the largest technology companies in the world. It currently mainly produces A series processors and M series processors. The A series processors are designed for mobile devices such as Fruit Mobile to improve the performance of Fruit Mobile.

Fruit Group's latest release is the M4 chip, which uses the second-generation 3-nanometer process technology. Their company is stepping up the development of 2-nanometer chips and is expected to launch them next year.

As for the 1-nanometer chip, it will take at least three to five years to develop it.

Who knew that Yuanfang Group would actually launch a 1-nanometer chip now? Is this a joke?

The world's largest technology company hasn't even developed it, but you, Yuanfang Group, have easily developed it?

They don’t believe it anyway.

"Whether you suspect it or not, Yuanfang Group's mobile phone has been officially released. According to statistics from their official website, the number of orders has exceeded four million in just five hours."

"In other words, our fruit phone sales suddenly dropped by 4 million units, with a revenue of more than 20 billion."

Originally, the sales of fruit mobile phones in China were gradually declining. They were the only company making high-end mobile phones. At that time, fruit companies were booming, and some people even sold their kidneys to buy fruit mobile phones.

Now not only Warwick is squeezing their market, but another Yuanfang mobile phone has emerged.

"The top priority is to find a way to suppress Yuanfang Mobile." Ge Xin said, "Warwick Mobile has already risen. If we want to suppress it, it will be difficult. But Yuanfang Mobile is different. They are definitely not skilled in the new mobile phone business."

"Do you have any suggestions? You can speak freely."

As soon as Ge Xin finished speaking, a vice president said, "The easiest way is to start a price war. We have an advantage. As long as we can lower the price, we will definitely increase sales in a short time and make it impossible to sell mobile phones in distant places."

The cost of building a factory to sell mobile phones is too high.

The higher the sales volume, the more it can dilute the cost of building a factory and research and development.

After so many years of sales of fruit mobile phones, the cost has been reduced to very low, and the net profit is extremely high.

Even if the price of a fruit phone is reduced by 2,000 yuan, their profits will still be considerable.

"No, price reduction has to be submitted to the headquarters for approval. We have no authority, and the headquarters will definitely not approve it." Ge Xin said, "For so many years, the price of fruit phones has not been reduced."

According to the company's upper management, it is a truly excellent product, and it is good if the price does not increase. Lowering the price will only lower the quality of the product.

"Then buy trolls on the Internet to slander Yuanfang Mobile, buy some marketing accounts, and invest in soft advertising." Another vice president said, "This is the simplest way, through the media, create a kind of Yuanfang Mobile It’s actually worth two to three thousand yuan, but it’s sold for five to six thousand yuan, which is obviously a scam.”

"Once this impression is fixed, Yuanfang Mobile will not be able to reverse the trend even if it wants to."

"I suggest that we allocate 10 billion to marketing, and we must nip the distant mobile phones in the cradle. Their glory will only be brilliant for a month or two, and then they will take a turn for the worse." (End of Chapter)
