Chapter 23: The Beginning of an Era I

In the end, Chen Zifan chose the following products around Stardust Technology's first smartphone "Stardust 1": protective shell, tempered film, mobile power supply (power bank), Bluetooth headset.

Because the packaging box of "Stardust 1" will come with the original power adapter and data cable, there are no other accessories, no free mobile phone cases, and no wired headphones.

Rather than being maliciously targeted by some friends in the future because they don't send headphones, it is better to simply do it in one step and not send it directly, saving trouble in the future.

It can also sell a wave of Bluetooth headphones by the way, of course, if you have to use wired headphones, you can also use third-party headphones with micro interfaces.

As for the protective shell, tempered film, and power bank, these are all conventional three-piece sets, and the only difficulty is that the tempered film technology in this year may not be very mature, but this is not a problem, just hand it over to the supplier.

"As the distinguished father of Party A, I only need to put forward my own requirements to Party B..."

After sorting out the materials, Chen Zifan made a phone call and called Zhao Wuxian: "Contact the supplier as soon as possible for the above accessories, let them prepare, and we will be ready to start work after the Spring Festival." ”

"No problem!"

Zhao Wuxian looked through the information in his hand and saw that a tempered film was sold for 49, a mobile phone protective case was sold for 99, and a 10,000 mAh power bank was sold for 199, and he was a little dumbfounded:

"Wow, the price is so high!?"

"There was once an industry dark lamp who said: mobile phones don't make money, just make friends, accessories make money! And our quality is worth the price, we just provide consumers with a choice..."

If Zhao Wuxian didn't know about the situation of Stardust Technology, he would almost believe it, mobile phones don't make money? There are probably not many domestic manufacturers whose profits can be compared with Stardust Technology, not to mention accessories.

The document clearly reads: the cost of a single tempered film does not exceed 3 yuan, and the cost of a single liquid silicone protective shell does not exceed 7 yuan...

Of course, these are only the cost of materials, and there are some other costs that are not counted, but even so, the profits of these accessories are ridiculously high, and Zhao Wuxian doubts that anyone will really buy them?

Chen Zifan didn't explain too much, whether these accessories can be sold to see the main product is the main product, the second is the brand, Apple's official mobile phone case 200+ is still someone buys, that's the reason.

And Chen Zifan feels that selling a protective case for 99 is already the limit of his cognition, unless it has some special role, such as enhancing the signal, improving heat dissipation, etc., it is really not worth it.

After Zhao Wuxian left, Chen Zifan was rarely idle, at least he didn't have to worry about the matter of Stardust Technology before the Spring Festival, and Li Yuan and others from the Finance Department were also responsible for arranging the year-end benefits.

At that time, he only needs to show his face in front of the employees, have a meal together, send some New Year's red envelopes and say some auspicious words.

After solving the work on Stardust Technology, Chen Zifan drove his exclusive Dandan car to see how his father's electric car shop was doing.

One of the largest stores of Xinghua Zhixing is located in a medium-sized square diagonally opposite their factory, which is also Chen Zifan's suggestion, and the electric car shop is opened near the square to facilitate the exhibition during events.

It's a pity that it's winter, due to the weather, there are fewer people going out, and there are fewer people buying electric cars.

September ~ January of the following year is the peak season for buying a car, March ~ August is the relative off-season for buying a car, electric vehicles are just the opposite, and March ~ August sells the best.

Chen Zifan parked the car in the square, looked at the contrast between the two sides and couldn't help but sigh:

"I think what speed and passion I pursued back then, I had to study the parameters for a long time to buy a car, what multi-cylinder engine, 100 kilometers of acceleration in seconds, and whether the body was in line with the dynamics..."

His grandmother's, a 1.5T three-bar sedan is also aerodynamic... Can you really feel the acceleration of 000 even if it is 0.a few seconds faster? Even if you really buy a sports car, where can you drive so fast in China?

But that time was really interesting, and later the emergence of new energy vehicles broke the original automobile market pattern, and he also experienced for the first time what is called an exaggerated push back feeling, which is outrageous.

In Chen Zifan's view, the main problems of new energy vehicles are: battery attenuation, charging speed, and battery life discounts.

All of them are related to batteries, not only new energy vehicles, but also Xinghua Zhixing's electric vehicles also have this problem, at most to a different extent.

Chen Zifan first went to the vicinity of the auto parts city to take a look, and found that most people were either looking at Santana, or looking at Passat, or some domestic Dandan cars, and occasionally Elantra appeared...

"Flowing Passion~"

He couldn't help but have a magical advertisement in his mind, two Elantra cars hooked their shoulders and drifted around for a lap and then ran out of a heart pattern...

Thinking of this, he hurriedly shook his head, shook the picture in his mind, and then turned his head and walked to Xinghua Zhixing on the other side, to be reasonable, Xinghua Zhixing's store is doing quite well.

After all, it was Chen Zifan's design style, even in this season, it also attracted some people to experience the store, and the store was also divided into three areas, each of which placed a product.

They are: electric small three-wheeled, light electric bicycle, small electric motorcycle, the first product is the same as the express vehicle of Xingchen Express, and the remaining two are recently made by Chen Jianjun.

The beautiful name is "Chengfeng" and "Icebreaker", Chengfeng is a front frame and back seat grocery shopping car, Icebreaker is a small electric motorcycle, Chen Zifan can see at a glance that the two electric vehicles are all from Emma's design.

These names don't matter, who buys an electric car will pay attention to what series they are buying? What's the name? All are called Xinghua electric vehicles!

It's okay to buy a vegetable car, the small electric motorcycle is completely different from the current mainstream electric motorcycle style, round shape, fresh color matching, big eyes LED lights, with light brown imitation leather seats... It's really beautiful.

It belongs to the type of both men and women, especially for women, it seems that Chen Jianjun is also well versed in it, and knows that the average family who can make a decision to buy an electric car must be a woman.

And if you want to buy a car, it is basically the man who makes the decision, the shopping guides in the store are all aunts, Chen Zifan is 40+ in age, and when he entered the store, the aunt behaved very enthusiastically:

"Guy, come and see the electric car? What style do you want? You are tall, more suitable for this one, this is our new product, let me tell you, it uses a ternary lithium battery..."

Chen Zifan was shocked, what is it? Didn't this battery get it from Stardust Technology? Look at the poster of the electric motorcycle on the wall, what is the "first ternary lithium battery", "range 80km+"...

He seems to have only mentioned a ternary lithium battery, right? In other words, does Dad know what ternary lithium is? But it's not wrong to have to advertise it like this...

"Uh... Is there any difference between our ternary lithium battery and other batteries? ”

The shopping guide aunt clapped her hands and showed a confident smile: "Hey, young man, you can ask the right person!" Ordinary electric vehicles use lead-acid batteries, which are heavy, slow to charge and not durable!

Our Xinghua's ternary lithium battery is light and durable, usually want to charge it, you look at it again, our electric car is also equipped with an LCD screen, this is the speed, this is the power, mileage..."

While the aunt was introducing, she saw two men and one woman and three young people coming in, and suddenly the volume was much louder and her smile was brighter.

Chen Zifan: "......"

Auntie, you didn't introduce it clearly, to sum it up: our ternary lithium battery is good, other people's are not good, turn your head to look, a few young people still listen to it with relish, and one of them sat directly on it.

"Damn, it's comfortable!"

"It's very spring-like!"

GodTM springs, that's shock absorption!

"There's also a hook on the front that you can hang up when you buy vegetables, and there's a box in the back..."

"It's not just in the back! You get up, and you can put something under your ass! I'll show you..."

As soon as the aunt key was twisted, the seat cushion of the electric car "Duang~" popped up, and to Chen Zifan's surprise, there was actually damping inside, and his design drawings originally did not have this thing.

"There's just enough room for our helmet in there, by the way, this helmet is a gift..."

"And a helmet?"

"Yes!"

"But it's winter..."

"What are you afraid of in winter? We'll also send a windshield, girl, come and touch it, and look at this big sponge! Drill into it and don't be afraid of the cold! ”

"Ahh

"Come here, you!"

“……”

In Chen Zifan's shocked gaze, the three young people who originally came in to take a look liked to mention two new cars, the price of 2999 was not cheap, and the three young people also cut 100 yuan and gave a raincoat...

Why two? Because the seat of this electric car is not so big, two people riding in the same car will inevitably have a relatively large area of physical contact, and the remaining one can be used as a light bulb.

"Abominable young man..."

Chen Zifan couldn't help but curse secretly, and the aunt on the side turned her head and said:

"What about you, boy?"

"I'm just here to see... By the way, how is our electric tricycle selling? ”

"Oh~ That's all bought by people who sell things, and generally those who come in buy our one, it's good-looking, it's easy to use, and that's cheap..."

But she earns less by selling one cheaply, of course, this is what she says, and she won't say it, in fact, the sales of electric small three-wheelers are miserable... So when Chen Zifan asked, he avoided talking about it.

If there is a need for delivery, either use a Dandan car, or drive a tricycle, no matter how bad it is, it is also a three-wheeled motorcycle, and at worst, there are also human-powered tricycles, and the positioning of electric small tricycles is too embarrassing.

Unless the diesel engine tricycle and three-wheeled motorcycle are banned, the sales of electric small three-wheelers will definitely not rise, and it is true that after fifteen years, electric small three-wheelers are not the mainstream.

However, the electric small three-wheeler was not sold as a flagship product, so Chen Zifan didn't care, and after learning some of the situation of Xinghua Zhixing, he turned around and returned to Xingchen Technology to prepare the year-end report.

At the same time, under the operation of Stardust Technology, the "box" has successfully boarded the e-commerce platform and the official website of Stardust, and the offline shipping channels have also been integrated, leaving only Zhao Wuxian to "finally" hold a press conference.
