Chapter 229: Rice joins the Star Soft Alliance
Rice released a purely domestic mobile phone overnight.
The next day.
This news has been on the hot search, and it has been discussed by the majority of netizens.
It turned out that at 12 o'clock last night, without any warning, without warm-up publicity, and without issuing an invitation letter, Rice Company released the second "purely domestic" mobile phone in China.
Due to the hasty preparation of this press conference, there are not a few PPTs for presentations.
The hundreds of spectators in the audience were all run by rice employees.
Because he did not prepare copywriting and speeches, Lei Xiaojun on the stage behaved messily and spoke incoherently.
As a result, this press conference was called "the most hasty press conference in history".
However, the purely domestic mobile phone released at the press conference is still good in all aspects.
The name is "Guomi 1".
It is equipped with SX-800 CPU, LPDDR4 purple memory, UFS storage of Dajiang Storage, 5.99-inch OLED screen of Jingdong, and other domestic core components.
And the screen-to-body ratio is as high as 92%.
The battery capacity is 4200 mAh.
In addition, in addition to the 4+64GB low-configuration version, there are also 6+64GB, and the 6+128GB high-configuration version.
The pricing is also the price of making friends, which is 1199 yuan, 1399 yuan and 1599 yuan respectively.
There are three color schemes: Flag Red, Dream Blue, and Lucky Yellow.
There's even an unlimited pre-sale, which you can order now.
But......
Nobody cares.
A few hours after the product was listed, the sales volume of "Guomi 1" was less than 1,000 units.
On the contrary, there was ridicule on the Internet.
"Lei Xiaojun, the reason for the weakening of rice, don't you have any points in your heart? Following the trend, from the time the rice mobile phone keeps following the trend, it is doomed to weaken. ”
"Even if it is released one day earlier, the sales of tens of millions of units may be yours."
"No, no, no, Guomi 1 is not called'Purely domestic' mobile phone, it is still equipped with an insecure Android system, I won't buy it."
"The price is really good, but the Android system ...... Forget it, unless it is equipped with a Nebula system, you will not buy it! ”
"I'm sorry, I've already bought red peppers, and I don't have any money on hand."
"Brother Lei, don't be sad, send a song "Cool Cool" to comfort you."
The majority of netizens complained about the rice company, but they were not too interested in the so-called 'Guomi 1'.
Failed.
Lei Xiaojun's heart was cold.
But he didn't give up yet, but made a phone call to save it.
"Brother Chen, do me a favor, Brother Lalei!"
On the phone, Lei Xiaojun cried and said, very desperate.
"The opportunity was given to you Brother Lei, how can I help you now?"
Chen Jin on the other end of the phone said that with the technical strength of the rice company, it could have been one step ahead of the small pepper company and launched the first purely domestic mobile phone, but as a result, because of various concerns, the first-mover advantage was lost...... He can only blame himself for this.
"Yes, yes, I was wrong, it's Brother Lei, I have no eyes, and I blame myself for everything...... However, the mobile phone business is the core of the rice ecological chain, and there is absolutely no room for error! When the rice phone died, the rice company died, and more than 100,000 people lost their jobs...... Brother Chen, please forgive Brother Lei for my difficulties, sometimes, I really can't help it! ”
Lei Xiaojun said helplessly, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, how can he not be like this.
Hundreds of millions of Android devices, relying on tens of millions of rice mobile phones as the core connection, constitute the ecological chain of rice products, and also enter countless rice noodle families, allowing them to embrace a beautiful intelligent life.
This entire ecosystem, all based on Android, how can it be possible to get rid of it immediately.
Although the rice mobile phone is not profitable, but it is the core of the entire rice ecosystem, once the core is lost, the rice company's product matrix is rich in vain, he can't be a hot head, to overturn the rice company for more than ten years to lay a deep foundation.
The so-called "ship is hard to turn around" is exactly that.
The reason why Brother Gu dares to charge for the Android system is because of this dependence that cannot be shaken off.
However, the greed of Brother Gu's company has just been exposed, and the Nebula system proposed by Xinghai Technology has made Lei Xiaojun smell the threat of death.
It is terrible that the pre-sale of mobile phones in a single day exceeds 10 million units, and the total shipments of smartphones in the Z country market are only 380 million units, and rice mobile phones account for about 11%, half of this year has passed, and the domestic sales of rice mobile phones are less than 20 million units.
This shows the downturn in the smartphone market.
However, the first purely domestic mobile phone, the Red Chili Z1, created a terrible sales of 10 million units in one day, which is equivalent to 50% of the half-year sales of rice mobile phones.
When he saw this number at that time, Lei Xiaojun's whole soul trembled, and he instantly had a new understanding of the patriotic feelings of the Chinese people.
And then there is regret, and there is no regret!
With such terrible sales, what more rice ecosystem do you need? Why worry so much?
Ay~!
"Brother Lei, if you believe me, do as I say; If you still don't believe me, then your rice is a dead end. Chen Jin said solemnly.
"Say, say it quickly, I believe in you Brother Chen!"
"First of all, it is an apology, apologize to the majority of netizens, remove the word "pure" in the pure domestic mobile phone'Guomi 1', be sincere, the system you use is still the Android system, how can it be called'pure domestic'? It's better to call back '100% domestic hardware mobile phones', we can't deceive consumers. ”
"Okay, apologize, I'll adjust and apologize right away!"
"Then it is announced to join the Star Soft Alliance and cooperate with Xinghai Technology to create a truly pure domestic mobile phone equipped with the Nebula system, so that consumers will buy it, and your rice mobile phone will be saved, otherwise the market share will only get smaller and smaller."
"This ......"
Lei Xiaojun hesitated, still having some concerns.
Chen Jin said helplessly: "Brother Lei, is it okay to have a little ambition?" Rice is also a large company, the global shipment of rice mobile phones exceeds hundreds of millions of units every year, there is capital, technology, strength, join the Star Soft Alliance, Sanxin, Brother Gu company dare to take rice? And they have also seen the strong performance of the Nebula system, do they dare to push the rice to the side of Xinghai Technology? You are now eating both ends, Brother Lei, I don't believe you have a tough attitude, try the reaction of Sanxin and Brother Gu. ”
"Yes, yes! You're right! ”
Lei Xiaojun was like an enlightenment, and said secretly: It's just to join the Star Soft Alliance to meet the needs of domestic users, and he didn't say that he didn't need Sanxin's parts and gave up the Android system, they don't need to be so intense, if they force the rice to be in a hurry...... It will only be them who will regret it.
He immediately said, "Brother Chen, I listen to you!" Immediately announce that you will join the Star Soft Alliance to create a truly pure domestic mobile phone! ”
Chen Jin nodded.
……
In the afternoon of the same day.
The official Weibo of the rice company and Lei Xiaojun's personal Weibo first issued an apology statement, saying that the "Guomi 1" mobile phone is not a purely domestic mobile phone, and sincerely apologized for misleading consumers.
Then he announced that he would join the Star Soft Alliance, live up to the expectations of the majority of rice fans, and create a truly pure domestic mobile phone.
For these two statements, the majority of netizens gave a positive response.
"Yes, the attitude is sincere."
"It's not too late to make amends."
"Come on rice, when the real national machine comes out, you must buy it."
Chen Jin also posted a Weibo comment: "Please give Brother Lei another chance to do the machine, he will not disappoint everyone." ”
However.
It's been less than two hours.
Chen Jin suddenly received an emergency call!
On the phone, Ling Jundong hurriedly said: "Mr. Chen, Hanguo has taken action, Sanxin Company announced that starting today, Sanxin Company's RAM memory, NAND storage, OLED screen and other core components will be reduced in an all-round way!" The price reduction is more than 30%, and the memory has dropped by 50%, Mr. Chen, the comer is not good! ”
Oh~
A gleam shot out of Chen Jin's eyes.
Muttered, "Counter-cyclical law?" Just in time! ”
