Chapter 1671 Chaos
During the Spring Festival in Huaguo, most of the government departments and corporate factories are in a very leisurely state, but for Fairy Company, it is definitely not a time to relax.
Because on February 1st, during the Spring Festival holiday, the two aces of the Android system, the Nokia n80 and the Motorola a1600, officially started selling.
I have to say that the sales networks of Nokia and Motorola are indeed very powerful, even beyond everyone's imagination.
Although they spent so much money on publicity and advertising before, in the eyes of people in the industry, whether it is n80 or a1600, there is a big gap between dream stars and iphone, and the sales volume should not be so good. right.
But on February 1st, a total of 25.5 million units of Nokia n80 and 21.22 million units of Motorola a1600 were shipped, which is a bit appalling.
Even this number actually includes the number sent to various retail stores. More than 18 million units were purchased by dealers. However, it is only ten days since they were released. Such sales performance, Enough to make all manufacturers who are interested in smart electronics horrified! The major media bought by the Android Alliance also took the opportunity to give absurd praise. "Salute to the classics! Nokia and Motorola are still the two kings we love deeply. Behind the simplicity is their hard work. Now they have finally received positive feedback from fans!" - "New Englander" . "The app store has only been established for one year, and it will face the strong strangulation of the three giants! How long can they support it? If the app store collapses, where will hundreds of millions of users go? Are they ready to suffer heavy losses?" — — Soir de Marseille. "Novelty is not everything, and gimmicks are gimmicks after all. In this world, business must rely on strength to speak! Facing the sales forecast of Nokia and Motorola exceeding 800 million mobile phones a year, we will find out that it turns out that Stars sells 100 million units a year. It's so funny!" - "Feyenoord TV One". "The total sales volume of Stars in the 38 stores in Romania is only about 500,000 units a year! Let those expensive mobile phones die!" - "Romanian National Television 3". "..." Reports like these erode people's attention all the time. For a while, not only fans around the world, but even fans in Huaguo thought that Xiao Qi's Fairy Company was about to fail, and that the sales of Dream Stars were about to slip. trough. Xiao Qi is about to step into the ranks of failure. The fate of the iPhone was similar, only Samsung was simply ignored. Being passively beaten is definitely not the personality of Gang Leader Qiao, let alone Xiao Qi's way of doing things. As for Li Jianxi, who is very pioneering and aggressive, basically on par with Gang Leader Qiao, that's not to mention. The three of them have been planning a counterattack for a long time, and the budget has also been made, that is, to use the profits of the App Store to fight against the Android Alliance. The app store is not the same as the Android store. Basically, the Android store is just making money at a loss, and the app store is slightly underestimated to describe it as making money every day. For example, in January, the profit of the app store reached an astonishing 2.8 billion US dollars, basically earning 100 million US dollars a day! Although the maintenance of the website, technology upgrades, cloud computing and cloud storage construction have taken up a lot of profits of the app store, the remaining profits in these few months are still more than one billion US dollars. of the three shareholders. There is no requirement for dividends, just to prepare for various contingencies. After the crazy publicity of "Why do some people always ignore such obvious facts? We conducted a survey among high-income people in Europe and the United States, and 86% of mobile phone users chose stars. They have no plans to buy Nokia or Motorola, even if they want to change their mobile phones in the future. , and would not consider those two brands." - The New York Times. "In terms of the operating experience, the hardware configuration of the mobile phone, the exquisiteness and atmosphere of the mobile phone... May I ask the two mobile phones of Nokia and Motorola, what can compare to the Android system that Le put together, I can't see their quality It's a smartphone! Is this an insult to the era of exquisite intelligence created by Mr. Xiao Qi?" - "Munich Evening News". < Stars are compared together, don’t you know that in Brazil, all high-end people and fashion people like the latter two phones? Look at the stars of our national team and their wives and girlfriends! They don't have Nokia and Motorola phones! "—"Brazilia TV" "..." For a moment, you said you were right, and he said he was right, and the public opinion of the whole world seemed to be involved in it all at once. Even some irrelevant programs, if the guests don't talk about it, it seems that they can't keep up with the times. Everyone is watching it lively, fans are also arguing endlessly, TV stations and newspapers and magazines are also making a lot of money, it seems that only the Android camp and the app store camp are losing money. "You really think so?" Xiao Qi asked Yu Shanshan with a smile on the phone. "Isn't it?" Yu Shanshan, who is far in the northeast, was a little worried, "I heard that this moonlight is public opinion and public relations expenses, which will reach 1.8 billion U.S. dollars, not only adding all the profits accumulated in the previous period, but also excluding the next few months. In addition to the profit expenditure, the three major shareholders have to contribute more capital! We are the largest shareholder, and we must prepare at least 2 billion US dollars! If it is a business, I think it does not matter how much more, but this kind of burning money is really distressing. !" Xiao Qi's property has already exceeded 300 billion U.S. dollars, but Yu Shanshan, as a housekeeper, of course cannot think that more money can be wasted, which is why she immediately gave Xiao Qi Reason for calling. "You know how to look at small places!" Xiao Qi smiled softly, "Didn't you see that with this wave of fighting and controversy, it seems that only the Android Alliance is left in the ranks of smartphones in the world?" Are there two camps with the App Store Alliance? Now that everyone knows about Dream Stars, won’t we become number one in the world when we defeat the Android Alliance?” "Ah!?" Yu Shanshan really didn't expect this. Xiao Qi continued: "Actually, from the very beginning, we intended to advertise. Just like a star, in terms of strength, who is Wei Zi's opponent? But Wei Zai is so low-key, and he doesn't let People think he is a superstar! On the contrary, acting is only one-tenth, or even one-hundredth of his mainland stars, but because of various disputes and negative news, he has become a very prosperous star, and the advertising endorsement fee is a little No less than Wei Tsai! We have now caused large-scale controversy around the world, and dream stars have also entered the field of vision of many people who didn't care about smartphones before. This is an effect that no amount of advertising costs can achieve before! It's ridiculous that those mobile phone manufacturers don't know yet, and they are still waiting to watch the show! When they know, there will be two camps left in the mobile phone world, and their sense of existence will be weakened without limit, then it's their turn to cry! " The meaning of advertising is not Xiao Qi's intentional concealment, it really has nothing to do with Yu Shanshan's job, so she doesn't need to worry about it. Now that my wife asks, she naturally wants to explain. Yu Shanshan nodded slightly, but noticed another point, "You mean... the Android Alliance will still exist in the future? Will it be like the unbeatable Xiaoqiang, fighting with us endlessly?" The last one, which is the most critical one, is that the mobile phone market will never be limited to high-end mobile phones, nor can there be only one closed mobile phone. A completely free operating system like Android is bound to cater to the needs of many. Even those small and medium mobile phone manufacturers, including our domestic Gionee, Tianyu and other mobile phones, will also join this camp! In the low-end smartphone market, their dominance is assured! "(to be continued...)
