Are You Crazy, Do You Call This a Copycat Machine?

Chapter 36 Reversal of Polarity! Hard facts! The anger of netizens! [Seeking flowers! 】

"The second domestic smartphone? Don't be funny, Lianxiang is not a Chinese company at all!"

[Lianphone] Under the topic of hot search, this blog post immediately made the two rivals misfire!

The content of the blog post is actually very simple.

That is to bring up the background of the company.

Use ironclad facts to state the truth: Lianxiang is not a Chinese company at all!

The content of the blog post is as follows:

"I turned on the computer today and saw that netizens had a huge argument about the name [Lianphone]. I was really confused."

"In my opinion, as a U.S. company, Lianxiang imitates Apple's iPhone to name it, and it is simply not our outsiders' turn to talk."

"..."

"What? There are people who don't even know that Lianxiang is a US company?"

"No, no? It's 2021, and there are people who don't know that Lianxiang has been surnamed Mi a long time ago?"

"..."

"Well, if you really don't know, then please continue to look down."

"In 2008, a reporter asked a question during an interview with CEO Yang of Lianxiang."

"It is also a Chinese company that has entered the M country market. Many domestic companies have suffered varying degrees of sanctions and blockades in the United States. Why can Lianxiang be the only Chinese company that has not been targeted?"

"Faced with this question, the answer given by Mr. Yang made the reporter speechless at the time."

"Mr. Yang's answer is very simple. What he said at the time was-because we have never been a Chinese company."

"I remember that this news spread back to China and caused quite a stir."

"But under the strong public relations of Lianxiang, it was quickly calmed down."

"And their public relations method is also very simple. They accused the reporter of taking out of context for the sake of popularity, and declared that Mr. Yang's original words should be "We are not a Chinese company, but a global company."

"Is the original statement really like this?"

"Because time has passed so long, we have no way to verify it."

"But regardless of what Mr. Yang is talking about, we can look for the answer to'Lianxiang Nationality' from another aspect."

"..."

"The Lianxiang brand was founded in the 1980s. At that time, it was indeed a brand created by Chinese people."

"But, it's not the 80s anymore..."

"If you log on to the corporate information network now, you can find it."

"On the official file, it is written in black and white, and it is clearly stated that Lianxiang is now a foreign-funded enterprise!"

"Yes, unknowingly, they have replaced a Mi Guo core."

"As we see now, the headquarters of Lianxiang has always been Xiangjiang. Later, after the acquisition of IBM's computer business, they moved the headquarters to the United States."

"If you think of Lianxiang as a person-yes, he has immigrated."

"Now Lianxiang is headquartered in the United States, where the total number of employees exceeds 20,000."

"And their production base is located in China."

"Seeing this, there may be a small number of people who say-isn't the production base in China? Isn't it still a domestic enterprise?"

"For this kind of person, I just want to ask."

"Apple is headquartered in the United States, but their mobile phones are produced in the treasure island area of ​​China. You can't always say that Apple is a Chinese company, right?"

"..."

"Seeing this, some people may say that such things as registration information can't be counted."

"Although they have changed their'nationality' on the official archives, they still have the blood of China in their bodies, and they are towards China."

"For the stupid guy holding this idea--sorry, I really think you guys are stupid."

"Generally speaking, we judge the ownership of a company like this: where the company's headquarters is located, and which country it creates more jobs and taxes for, it is a company in which country."

"Of course, this group of people may not understand this, and he doesn't understand this, so I speak with facts."

"If you usually pay attention to the dynamics of the digital circle, you can actually find a phenomenon easily."

"Lianxiang's new PC products are first available in the United States, and then listed in China."

"And between the two countries, the sales strategy pursued by Lianxiang is different."

"In the United States, or in foreign markets other than China, Lianxiang has been pursuing a'low-price strategy.'"

"Still taking the United States as an example, the same computer, the price of Lianxiang is about 20% lower than other brands, and some even make the price more."

"The products of the same model are placed in China, and some have to castrate graphics cards, and some have backlit keyboards."

"Not only is the configuration castrated, but the price is also about 20% higher than in the United States."

"So now many domestic consumers of Lianxiang are used to buying Lianxiang computers that are eliminated in the United States, because they can be nearly twice as cheap as the domestic market!"

"Look at the clever little head of Lianxiang, it's so good at playing."

"Put the cost of price reduction in the U.S. market and put it back on the China market."

"It is equivalent to using our money to give subsidies to Americans."

"I have to say that the joint sharing after immigration is still very loving for their new home."

"To prove that I am not talking nonsense, I will give an example."

"In 2017, Lianxiang released the ThinkpadX1Carbon2017 model."

"The selling price in the U.S. market is $1,500, which is equivalent to RMB 9,750."

"The domestic version is priced at 24,999 yuan."

"When you see this, some people might say that if Lianxiang is doing this, aren't they afraid that domestic consumers will not pay the bill?"

"Searching for information, we found that President Yang actually answered this question."

"And his answer is very speechless-people will think the product is not good if it is cheaper."

"At the time I was dumbfounded after reading it."

"If it's cheaper, people will think the product is not good? What about the US? You are so cheap, so why are you not afraid that American consumers think the product is not good?"

"Finally, we provide you with a set of data."

"In 2017, Lianxiang's total sales in China accounted for 28% of the total annual sales. The total sales in foreign markets were 72%."

"But on the contrary, 28% of total domestic sales made Lianxiang earned $59 million, while 72% of total sales resulted in Lianxiang's loss of $244 million."

"To sum up, is there a problem with the name Lianphone?"

...

A very long blog post.

There is no verbal abuse from the shrew, just the constant use of data and available information to make statements.

To state the simplest fact-as a U.S. company, what happened to Lianxiang copying iPhone? Have we outsiders talked this round?

Shock!

Extremely shocked!

At this time, netizens were surprised to find that the joint share in their impression was no longer made in China!

And after the shock, it was extremely angry!

The same product is sold for thousands abroad, but more than 20,000 at home!

What's the difference between this and those actors who make money from the Chinese people while talking bad things about the country abroad after immigrating? !

Suddenly, countless netizens who knew the truth couldn't help it!

They rushed into the official blog of Lianxiang and started to anger!

In the blink of an eye, all the comments on Lianphone and expecting Lianphone were covered up!

"I'm going, what's the matter?"

And open Weibo again, ready to see how effective the hot search he bought is... Chang Hao is stunned!

——————————

I didn’t notice that the content of the ‘blog’ was written so long.

The more I check the information, the more I get more frightened. This is the version I have simplified a lot.

By the way, a certain drop was taken off the shelves for ‘endangering national security’. Everyone knows this, right?

By the way, Didi’s president, surnamed Liu, is the daughter of the founder of Lianxiang*
