Chapter 202: Saion lost his horse and knew if he was blessed
There is no doubt that the release of the new iPhone and iPad has attracted cheers from everyone present, after all, with or without Dragon Claw Technology, these two products are disruptive products. Dragonclaw's brand influence is completely unmatched with Apple's, and it is predictable that the iPhone 4 and iPad will definitely be a phenomenal success, even if they delay their release by two months.
At the end of the press conference, Jobs also explained the reason for Apple's delay in the press conference. In fact, most people believe that Apple was forced to postpone the press conference because of the threat of Dragon Claw Technology products and changed to a more advanced product to be released. Therefore, when I heard that Jobs was going to explain the reason for the postponement, many colleagues and reporters, and even ordinary viewers who bought tickets to watch the press conference, felt that this was a bit of a problem, because no matter how Jobs explained, it would only get darker and darker.
However, everyone still underestimated Jobs's talent for fooling.
"As everyone thinks, Apple's postponement of the press conference is precisely because of China's dragon claw technology! My colleagues don't want to admit it, and I don't want to nod my head, but now I dare to face it, because NewiPhone and iPad! Jobs's language was very sincere, but also with a hint of his unique arrogance, "There is only one apple in the world!" The iPhone 4 and iPad will prove it! ”
After saying this, the audience resounded with a crazy cheer, the enthusiasm of the fruit fans is undoubted, they love apples, and they also love Jobs's personal style.
Zhao Qi listened to Su Bei's translation, smiled indifferently, and did not comment.
Next. Jobs invited everyone to visit the exhibition hall to experience the iPhone 4 and iPad. Soon the press conference hall was empty.
Su Bei accompanied Zhao Qi and walked out slowly. This girl's face was very ugly, with a hint of resentment, as if she wanted to say something to Zhao Qi, but she always wanted to say something, and after enduring it for a long time, she still said: "Mr. Zhao, we shouldn't have come at all!" That Jobs, just playing us again! We have not been hostile to Apple. And they openly slandered us at the press conference, which is simply using us as a stepping stone! Besides, his products, whether they are mobile phones or tablets, are plagiarized from our creativity, and they are embarrassed to show off? Shameless! ”
"Oh! Actually, we've been targeting Apple all along! How can it be said that there is no hostility to Apple? Dragon's claw's mobile phones and tablets, everything is moving in the direction of surpassing Apple's products, so we are enemies in the first place. It's normal for him to use us as stepping stones! Zhao Qi looked at it very lightly, "Actually." Our phones and tablets have threatened them and almost embarrassed them, so Apple has a grudge against us! Now, they probably think it's time to vent! ”
"But, but ......" Su Bei's eyes were still a little red, she felt that Zhao Qi should not give Apple this face, but should directly sarcastically ridicule like he did with Microsoft and Google, and not use San Francisco at all.
"You don't think I should give Apple a cheer, do you? also lost his own prestige. Right? Zhao Qi seemed to see through Su Bei's thoughts.
"yes!" Su Bei nodded.
"I'm not here to support Apple, our goal is clear - to destroy Apple completely!" Zhao Qi chuckled and said, "I came just to understand the enemy, and only by knowing myself and the enemy can I win all battles!" I don't go to Microsoft and Google because their current rigid and backward thinking is no longer enough to pose a threat to us, but Apple is different! At least, while Jobs was still alive. ”
There is a sentence that Zhao Qi did not say, he also came to pay tribute to Jobs, after all, Dragon Claw Technology also borrowed a lot of things from Apple. And Jobs, there are not many days left.
"But at Apple's press conference, Jobs openly ridiculed Dragon Claw Technology, which was spread by the media, which will definitely affect our brand image and sales!" Su Bei said worriedly.
"Yes! But is it a blessing for Seon to lose his horse? Zhao Qi nodded and shook his head again, "This time, it was Jobs and Apple who were forced into a corner of the crisis public relations, and I will do the same!" Wait and see! This may be a good thing for us! ”
With that, Zhao Qi strode towards the exhibition hall.
"What?" Su Bei was surprised and chased after him quickly, but no matter how she asked, Zhao Qi didn't say much. It's just that because of such a sentence, Su Bei's mood has calmed down a lot, as if he is really sure that Zhao Qi can turn the tide. She now trusts Zhao Qi 100%!
Zhao Qi had a brief experience of iPhone4 and iPad in the experience hall, and had a real understanding of these two products, and his heart was more confident, and his face was always filled with a lazy and confident smile.
This so-called iPhone4 does have the performance of iPhone4, that is to say, Apple is indeed hiding its strength, and when it should have launched iPhone3G, iPhone4 has already done it. This proves once again that Apple's toothpaste-style update is not only seeking the best interests of their company, but also reserving enough responses to challenges like Dragon Claw Technology.
However, the shape and design of the iPhone5, although it can be called wonderful, its design sense and perfection are comparable to the dragon claw mobile phone, however, he does not have the performance of the real iPhone5, just the iPhone4. Because of this, Zhao Qi is a little more relaxed, because the performance of the dragon claw mobile phone is equal to the iPhone4, and Apple can't beat the dragon claw in terms of performance and design.
The iPhone4 has Apple's strong brand effect, and the dragon claw mobile phone has been improved because Zhao Qi predicted the problems that Apple and other mobile phones will have in advance, and has a more mature user experience. In this regard, neither of the two has obvious advantages, which is also the reason why Zhao Qi is really at ease.
As for the iPad, Zhao Qi just played with it and threw it away. This is the first generation of the iPad that appeared in the tech tree, and in terms of design and performance, its performance is not as good as that of a netbook. In addition, it can't play medium to large 3D games like the Dragonclaw Tablet, can't handle office tasks, and is extremely lacking in applications. So, the iPad is far behind the Dragon Claw tablet in every way, and its only advantage is limited to the price. But the price advantage is not obvious, iPhone and iPad are priced at 4999 yuan. And the entry-level dragon claw tablet, presumably iPad also has a larger screen, better chip and performance, and the price is only 5999 yuan.
Of course, Zhao Qi knew that Apple's strong brand effect was enough to offset all the advantages of dragon claws, but Zhao Qi didn't think about becoming a big fat man in one bite, and he didn't plan to pull Apple down with the first batch of products. On the contrary, the current Zhao Qi is planning to use Apple to boost the sales of dragon claw products.
Coming out of the experience hall, as expected, Zhao Qi encountered a group of reporters, Zhao Qi was happy to see it, and he needed to use them.
Most of these media are from developed countries in Europe and the United States, although they no longer despise Dragon Claw Technology and Zhao Qi, but they still prefer Apple in their hearts. Therefore, they first congratulated Zhao Qi on his "prediction" that was completely correct, and then asked Zhao Qi if he felt pressure.
"Do you think the launch of Apple's new mobile phone and the emergence of the iPad will erase the strong performance of the previous dragon claw mobile phone and tablet?" A reporter asked.
"Obviously, it will!" Zhao Qi nodded.
"So, do you think Apple's product is very good?"
"As good as ever."
"So, what do you think your girlfriend, we know that she is the president of the Eastern Bloc, do you think she will buy Apple products or dragon claw products?"
This question is a bit tricky, when Su Bei was translating, he also glanced at the rosacea white reporter who was smiling and cowering, and added to Zhao Qi worriedly: "Mr. Zhao, don't be led astray by these unscrupulous reporters, we can't show weakness." ”
Zhao Qi also looked at the reporter and said, "It's a pity, I think she will buy Apple's products!" ”
Su Bei was a little angry, but he still translated.
The media people present were a little surprised, and they would not have thought that Zhao Qi, who has always been strong, would answer like this. Has he ever been soft? Besides, although everyone is closer to the Western brand Apple, it is also clear that Apple's mobile phone may be comparable to the dragon claw mobile phone, but the iPad is by no means the opponent of the dragon claw tablet! Could it be that Zhao Qi couldn't see it?
"Do you think that many consumers who would have been ready to buy Dragon Claw products will switch to Apple?"
"Yes! This is obvious, and I encourage everyone to do so. ”
Still encouraged? Encourage people to buy other products?
Many people are a little confused.
Then, Zhao Qi said: "As we all know, Dragon Claw Technology is a start-up brand, our funds are limited, the sales channel is single, and the production capacity is seriously insufficient, so two months after the release, we are still selling in limited quantities." This is very unfair to many users who are eager to buy and use high-quality smartphones and tablets! Simply because of the advantages of our products, Apple was forced to make adjustments and launch products across generations. Moreover, iPhone4 and iPad are also good products, iPhone4 has reached the level of dragon claw mobile phones in terms of technology, so for those consumers who can't buy dragon claw mobile phones, I recommend them to buy iPhone4! In my opinion, the quality of life can determine the happiness of life! ”
After these words were translated by Su Bei, the reporters were dumbfounded, and their faces were ...... If you can't buy a dragon claw phone, can you buy Apple? Is it so reasonable? Where did you get the courage?
However, the dragon claw phone is his courage, right? After all, even Steve Jobs admitted that it was the appearance of the dragon claw phone that caused them to switch to the iPhone 4 ahead of schedule. It can be said that Apple was not prepared, but Dragon Claw Technology launched a product that is not inferior to the iPhone 4 two months ago? Doesn't this mean that the level of Dragon Claw Technology is already higher than Apple's?
If you put aside the brand influence, it seems that Zhao Qi does have the courage to say such a thing! (To be continued......)
