Chapter 226: Surprises Persist (Part I)

Polestar's first mobile phone is pretty, but it seems to be very average in function!

This is what many people think, especially those who come with a mind of observation and inquiry. The thunder is loud and the rain is small, this is their first reaction.

This view is also not uncommon in the media.

It's been less than a year since Polestar was founded, and it's understandable that I'm still making MP3s before. Even if the division of labor in the industrial chain has been so detailed, the basic R&D capabilities of mobile phone companies still need to be had.

However, Duan Fei, a senior reporter at 21st Century Economic Observer, who is nicknamed "Polestar Professional", doesn't think so.

He is planning a "big draft".

Not to mention that Polestar itself is a star company, and it has just taken over the CCTV standard King Panda mobile phone two years ago, which is very hard news.

And this unique and first attempt to put the concept of user first in such an important position is really eye-catching, and it is very deep.

Besides, he hasn't forgotten that the Polaris K1, which opened the market at the beginning, is not it a low-end model with ultra-high cost performance?

If this is really the case, then this A100 phone, maybe the price will be a surprise!

Just thinking like this, a media colleague next to him pulled his sleeve and asked, "Brother Duan, what do you think of this mobile phone?"

"What else can you see?" Duan Fei's eyes were firmly fixed on Liu Mingsheng, who was still doing the mobile phone function display on the stage, and then subconsciously turned to Xia Yu, who was sitting peacefully in the audience, and said with a smile: "I have a hunch that the bloody wind in the mobile phone market is not far away." ”

On stage, Liu Mingsheng finally finished most of the function demonstrations, and then suddenly said: "I can't enjoy playing by myself, why don't we have a live competition? Just this Tetris, three places, who wants to try? The winner can get a brand new A100 on the spot?"

Play games and get a new machine?

This is interesting. Many people are raising their hands to sign, especially the star fans who have been ignited with enthusiasm.

Liu Mingsheng was also unambiguous, and cleanly selected three people: a young star fan, a retailer, and Lin Zhenhui next to Xia Yu.

Yes, Lin Zhenhui also raised his hand.

Although it is not common for domestic mobile phones to have built-in games, there are many high-end models. He wanted to see for himself how the Polestar phone would work.

Two staff members connected the other two mobile phones to the number of lines, and the large screen at the front desk was suddenly divided into three, presenting the game interface of the three mobile phones.

Begin!

Accompanied by the classic and familiar sound of the game released by the high-end audio equipment around it, three players with a considerable age difference began to operate.

Well. It was easy to start with, and everyone responded well.

And the audience at the scene also saw the familiar interface on the big screen for the first time, and they all felt fresh.

It can be seen that the three mobile phones that Polestar took out for demonstration run very smoothly and steadily, and they are also very easy to operate, and the three of them are quite engaged.

But gradually, Lin Zhenhui first showed a state of inadequacy, and the squares on his screen on the far left were piled higher and higher, and finally reached the top.

“GameOver!”

The sound of the screen and the sound of the sound is heard. There was a burst of laughter at the scene, but Lin Zhenhui didn't care.

What he cares about is that this phone feels really good to hold, and it looks even more gorgeous in the hand. Judging from the control experience just now, it is indeed no worse than the mobile phones of international brands.

Not bad!

Xia Yu has already revealed to him the price of the Antarctic Star A100. Of course, it is a super big surprise, which is very much in line with the choice of the operator's customized machine. Before, I was more worried about the quality and use effect, and it seems that there is no problem in this regard.

Although he can't make a decision on the spot, he already has a new perspective. I plan to go back and organize people to evaluate it well.

Finally, the middle-aged retailer representative was also defeated, and he took Liu Na's microphone and said, "The hand is too raw." I'm going to go back and practice again!"

"Then you have to remember to keep an A100 for yourself?"

At this time, only the young man of about twenty remained. After eliminating four more rows to get new points, he breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that he was the only one left, and then he also stopped.

Liu Na walked over and asked him, "Hello this classmate, what do you call it?"

The boy lowered his eyes and smiled: "My name is Liang Cheng, and I am also a star fan." I've been playing this game for years. I've scored more than 6,000 points in Endless Mode, but I haven't played enough today...... By the way, does this phone belong to me?"

Liu Na couldn't cry or laugh: "This, this is our display prototype! But Mr. Liu's words must count, and our staff will contact you in a while!"

The boy was reluctant to hand it back: "Okay......"

After Lin Zhenhua came down, he sat next to Xia Yu again, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, this mobile phone is really good, we will have an internal discussion meeting next week, and there will be final news at that time." ”

It can only be like this, Xia Yu nodded: "Trouble Mr. Lin!"

……

Playing the game is of course just a vignette, but it's also relaxing, and everyone knows that the next thing is the main thing.

The price of the A100, as well as the sales strategy.

Luo Dong stepped onto the stage.

Because of the solid foundation of the academy and the diligence and studious ability to keep up with Xia Yu's rhythm, he has been listed as a key training target and is one of the candidates for Polestar's future president.

"Hi everyone, I'm Luo Dong from Polestar. NJStar A100, as Polestar's first product in mobile phones, honestly carries a lot of our hopes. Before revealing his price, I would like to share a short video with you......"

As soon as his words landed, the background on the big screen changed, and then a cartoon mission image appeared:

It was the form of sketch and painted storytelling that became popular many years later.

"His name is Xiao Ming, 18 years old, and he has just been in his first year of college this year......"

As soon as this sentence came out, the cartoon child on the screen moved, and then a hand holding a colored pen appeared, and quickly drew a stick figure of a large school gate and the teaching building inside on the screen.

After the hardships of the college entrance examination, Xiao Ming finally came to the free university.

However, Xiao Ming soon found that it was really unpleasant to queue up every day to make a public phone call to Xiaohong in another city - the fat woman in front of him was talking to the phone porridge...... It's easy to take your turn, and you haven't had time to say sweetly yet. The big man in the back stared at himself menacingly......"

"Xiao Ming, who is very weak, obediently gave up his position......"

As the sound continues, the picture changes. Next to a small building, there was a long queue in front of the phone booth in the ice and snow, and Xiao Ming, who was wrapped thickly, reluctantly handed the phone to the big man behind him.

Xiao Ming felt that it seemed, probably, maybe, as if, should be...... Buy a mobile phone!

As soon as this thought appeared, he couldn't get rid of it anymore, he took out all his living expenses for this month, and counted, yo, there is a lot of money!

So Xiao Ming rushed to the holy place in his mind - Zhongguancun with great interest!

In the picture, Zhongguancun died in several buildings. On the bustling road, Xiao Ming grinned, and walked in with a series of excited and nervous symbols above his head.

But he was quickly dumbfounded.

The dazzling array of mobile phones on the counter is indeed new and attractive, and he feels good when he touches it left and right.

You can ask the price......

2888, 1680, and the lowest are also 920!

How can this be endured, Xiao Ming mustered up the courage to start bargaining one by one, and was rejected again and again.

Throughout the afternoon, Xiao Ming hoped to be able to find a mobile phone that he could still get his hands on and afford, and hoped that well-meaning merchants would make his dream come true, but the salespeople told him with blank eyes: the mobile phone market is facing south. If you have no money, don't come in!

On the screen, Xiao Ming looked helpless and reluctant, and then walked to the side of the road to wait for the bus.

"When night falls, snow flakes fall. Xiao Ming's heart was broken, and he seemed to see the dark prospect of waiting in line for ten minutes to make a phone call for another ten minutes in the ice and snow......"

The story is simple, but the narration is very fast and has a strange tone. But very interesting.

This is exactly the kind of spit style copywriting style that became very popular a few years later, and the story sketched by a very novel and quick handmade sketch quickly attracted everyone's attention.

Polestar seems to like this new approach. This press conference can see a lot of ......

Interested people have begun to pay attention and silently write it down.

At this moment, the picture suddenly turned, and a piece of paper glittering like a book of holy words that flew up "landed" in front of Xiao Ming, and then was grabbed by him in his hand.

Suddenly, Xiao Ming's eyes lit up, and he felt that his whole body was trembling, did God hear my call! He roared wildly and rushed to another address excitedly......

In the picture, after Xiao Ming left, the contents of the piece of paper were revealed.

"NJStar A100, our first phone".

Because the paper is a bit rolled, only the last two digits of the eye-catching price column are revealed in the picture: X88.

……

At the end of the picture, freeze on six colorful mobile phones, and at this time everyone's appetite is lost.

What exactly is the price of NJStar A100?

"Is it 888? That's a lot like their style. Duan Fei quickly passed the price of the mobile phone information he learned in his mind, and muttered a number.

"The same type of mobile phone is almost 1000 fast, about eight or nine hundred domestic ones, if you follow the practice of Polaris K1, maybe dare to spell a 788!"

As a staunch supporter and important partner of Polestar Electronics, Hu Hongjun, a retailer in Rongcheng, couldn't help but guess.

"Maybe 688 yuan is not a common sense card for Polestar!" said someone next to him.

Hu Hongjun shook his head: "It's difficult! We all sell mobile phones, and the bargaining power of a new company in the industrial chain is often very weak, you don't know, coupled with Polestar's consistent large-scale marketing support, more than 600 yuan is really too low." ”

As half of the industry, he really doesn't think it can be lower. (To be continued......)
