Chapter 1683 Contract Machine Field

Entering February, although most people are resting during the Spring Festival, the workers of Star Electronics and Honghai Factory have no rest.

On the contrary, a large number of workers are working overtime in a misplaced position, continuously producing dream pads and dream stars, and supplying them to fans all over the world.

The dream pad didn’t need Xiao Qi to worry about assembly and production problems for a long time. Star Electronics and Red Sea No. 2 Factory’s assembly of dream stars is also getting better and better. After the Spring Festival, the yield rate has reached a new high, which is 2 It is even more than 9 million units per month. It is expected to be produced in 29 days, and 10 million units will be stable.

It is worth mentioning that the limited-edition dream stars in pale golden pink have been transferred back to Fairy No. 2 Factory for assembly at this moment. Star Electronics and Red Sea No. 2 Factory are only responsible for the production of ordinary silver-white and bright black.

On the one hand, it is the need of hunger marketing, and on the other hand, the mass version of dream stars is the most important weapon to stand in the market, so the limited production capacity of dream stars for the time being is not enough, which is irrelevant to the overall situation.

Entering February, due to the exhaustion of the previous inventory, the total production capacity has not been greatly improved, so the 10 million units can only be released in two parts, once every half a month.

Such output, even in the face of strong sales pressure from Nokia and Motorola, is still in short supply.

After half a month in February, the Nokia n80 and Motorola stars were still sold out without a break, which made people exclaim. The era of smart electronics has arrived, and people's hunger and thirst for smart products is far from being saturated. < stars half a year away, the next step will directly crush the two.

But the app store is not without words.

First of all, the cumulative sales volume of the Android Alliance before February 1st reached about 48 million units, that is to say. In fact, during this half-month period, their shipments were around 22 million.

At first glance, this data is absolutely amazing!

Neither Fairy Company nor Apple Company can achieve such a strong result! !

But if you think about the fact that there are more than 50,000 exclusive stores and hundreds of thousands of cooperative sales stores in the world, the sales volume of 22 million units is not so dazzling.

At present, there are only more than 300 direct-sale stores of Apple Company in the world, and there are only 70 of Fairy Company!

If the sales outlets of the two companies are as many as Nokia and Motorola, I am afraid that the sales volume will be 22 million. It's not too difficult?

Another point is that the Android store opened on February 1st. The sales of the app are not even a little bit worse. Except for the 300 to 500 million apps sold every day in the first few days of opening, the remaining The next time is basically a sales volume of 20 to 30 million a day.

There is no other reason, more than 80% of the apps in the Android store. Either it's too old, or it's not very playable. It can even be said to be dull, and it can make fans who bought the n80 and a1600 scold their mothers.

There is no way for the Android Alliance. The prosperity of any app store must have a process.

Don't look at how hot the app store is now, so unstoppable, at the beginning. Xiao Qi spent a lot of money in it as a foundation, and he didn't worry about it. Basically, it was only after the iPhone began to be launched on a large scale that he gradually started to make profits.

Now there are only a few thousand companies developing programs for them in the Android store, and those companies that have been poached at a high price can't produce any products that surpass their own peak for a while. And the attractiveness of the brand also takes time to accumulate, so the current desolation is a normal phenomenon.

But looking at this situation, they can have at least 200-300 million Android phones. It is a sustainable and feasible approach to attract more developers with this number of users.

With such a large user base, as long as they don't mess themselves up and endure losses for a while, the rise of Android stores is definitely unstoppable.

Apple is gradually making contract machines in small batches, and Fairy Company simply doesn't have any.

You know, now Apple only produces 8 million units a month, and Fairy Company is barely able to complete the production of 10 million units.

< Stars are not cheap, they are high-end smartphone models, both Xiao Qi and Qiao Gang have to consider the issue of market saturation, if the increase in production leads to unsalable sales, what about the excess production capacity? But it is also a trouble.

Of course, this does not mean that production will not be increased at all. For example, the Red Sea factory built by Guo Taiming in Daoyin is used to expand the production capacity of iPhones owned by Mr. Qiao. The production capacity of this factory is estimated to be around 5 million to 8 million units!

Mr. Qiao’s plan is very good. If the sales of iPhones continue to improve, they will start with an increase of 5 million units, until they double the production, and ship 16 million units a month.

And this monthly output of 16 million units can be maintained. In this way, whether it is an increase in the number of contract phones, or next year's replacement, or a cheaper version of the iPhone in the future, it can all be handled. .

Xiao Qi is not in a hurry. Dream Stars has only been on sale for two months now, and the output of 10 million units is enough for the time being. In his plan, it will be half a year before he wants to expand the production capacity.

Apple and Xiannv Company have not prepared contract phones for the time being, so the mobile communication operators who are already jealous can only choose two models from the Android Alliance. < The smooth feeling of stars, but at least you can use the 3g network, and the Internet function is also good, it is suitable for everyone to use the 3g network traffic to make money.

Even Huaguo Mobile Communications on Huaguo's side directly signed a contract with the Android Alliance, announcing that it will launch a "0 yuan contract phone" in March, which greatly attracted attention.

"0 yuan purchase" is just a gimmick, in fact, the overall calculation is more expensive than you buy alone.

But this kind of gimmick has always been a relatively successful gimmick. It is said that there is an endless stream of customers who go to the store of Yixun every day to inquire.

Huaguo Dentsu and Huaguo Lianshu, which had signed a contract with Xiao Qi, were a little unstable at this time. Both Kang Yuanjun and Gu Weikang called Xiao Qi several times after the Spring Festival to inquire about their contract machine.

Their family has a contract of 10 million units, and the other has 5 million units. The sooner they supply the market, the more they can occupy the market. They can't reach a contract in advance, but instead, they are overtaken by Hua Guoxun, a latecomer?

While Xiao Qi was dealing with them, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

It's not that he hasn't thought about the fact that he still has contract machines in his hand, not only domestic ones, but also Japanese SoftBank Group's contract machines.

But soon there will be a super earthquake in May, and all his energy will be on preventing more people from being killed, and saving lives and healing the wounded after the earthquake. The expansion of production capacity should also be a matter in June, and it is still a bit inappropriate now.

Which is more important, earning money or responding to robbery, is a question that Xiao Qi doesn't even have to think about.

I have to say, Xiao Qi is digging into a dead end again.

Just like the last time because of fear of an earthquake, they were unwilling to build the Rongcheng site and the Shangri-La community in advance.

In the end, it was Yu Shanshan's words that woke him up.

"I heard that Star Electronics is ready to merge two more foundries. Consumers have this demand, and Li Xiaochao also has this expectation. Why not let him have a try? Anyway, there is no loss for us, even if It's because Dream Stars can't sell so many, and it can also be used as an advance production reserve for Dream Snow!"

Only then did Xiao Qi suddenly realize.

The earthquake occurred in Shuchuan, and it has no effect on the eastern part of Guangdong.

Moreover, there are countless foundries in Nanwan, and there is no need to start from scratch like Rongcheng: building factories, purchasing equipment, recruiting and training workers, trial production...etc. A whole set of processes is not needed!

You only need to spend money to buy a ready-made mobile phone foundry, and you can use it with a little training. How much time and energy was spent! ?

"Then open an assembly plant with an assembly capacity of 50 million units a year!"

Xiao Qi, who can be described as "sudden enlightenment", made a decision without saying a word! (To be continued..)
