Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Qu Li’s speech at the Pengcheng Internet Leaders Summit was quickly published on the Internet, which caused a lot of discussion. Most of them can understand, but this part of the people does not speak out, and the other part of “human sobriety” likes to stand on the commanding heights of morality. Comments: Ruthless nonsense.

It's a pity that these unconventional remarks can't make a big splash at this time. Honor announced the latest sales information. In the two days of the first weekend, Honor sold 3 million units worldwide. According to BYD's production capacity of 200,000 a day, it will take 15 days. The reputation of Qushuhou may continue, but the peak of sales will pass soon, so it is not a big problem.

The 200,000 production capacity of BYD Electronics per day is completed in Pengcheng and Xingsha factories. The Xingsha factory is still expanding. In the future, it is likely to reach the level of Futukang Zhengzhou factory, with a daily output of 500,000 mobile phones and 300,000 employees. .

Honor G4 Plus is a big hit, Qu Li is happy, but other domestic companies can’t do it. For example, at the leadership summit that day, a certain CEO who said he was not afraid of Honor competing with Apple was slapped in the face as soon as he finished bragging.

One thinks that the annual sales of smartphones may not be as good as the one-month sales of Honor. Compared with this, the damage is too great. Not only that, the Honor G2 was discontinued, and the price of the Honor G3 released in 2009 was adjusted down to 1999 yuan. This means that Honor mobile phones have completed the product line from 2000 to 5000 prices.

The mobile phone two years ago is now selling for 1999 yuan, and the sales have actually rebounded, even surpassing the mate released last year. The effect of price reduction and promotion can be seen, and it also proves how weak other domestic brands are.

The reason why it can be sold for 1999 yuan is that in addition to the active price reduction of Honor and the appreciation of soft sister coins, it is necessary to know that the basic model of the flagship mobile phone Honor G4 has risen from US$500 to US$600, but it is only sold at 3999 yuan in China. The domestic price of the just-released Honor G4 Plus basic model is 4,599 yuan, and the top version is 4,999 yuan.

Last year, domestic mobile phone sales above 2,000 yuan accounted for 45% of the national smartphone market sales in 2010. Based on the annual sales volume of 58 million units, it is about 26 million units. If Honor can occupy one-third of the share, it will be able to sell Nearly 10 million units.

It's a pity that although Honor is the strongest in China, it only sold about 7 million units in China last year. There are still many people who don't recognize domestic brands, or don't know what a smartphone is. Traditional brands such as Nokia and Samsung are too influential. It may be that the price of Honor is too high.

It is now reduced to 2,000 yuan, which is considered a clearance sale. After all, the CPU processing power of mobile phones is getting stronger and stronger. Now it is far from reaching the level of excess performance. The market circulation of mobile phones with too low configuration will affect the brand power of Honor. Honor G3 will be discontinued this year. .

Fortunately, the Apple IPhone gave him time. As long as the high-quality Honor mobile phone is used and a habit is formed, it can have a large number of loyal users.

In the past few years, the mobile phone products of China Cool Union are not to be said to be rubbish. Anyway, they are very troublesome to use, so that some people have formed loyal fans of IPhone, Samsung, and HTC. Standing in line with Lei Jun again, the early coarse-grain mobile phone has completely defeated China Cool Union in terms of user experience...

Qu Li was not in a hurry to come back in Pengcheng, and chatted with Ma Yun about the construction of "China's intelligent logistics backbone network". He wanted to pull Ari to build this network together and improve the level of domestic e-commerce infrastructure.

Ma Yun looked at Qu Li in astonishment, and didn't respond for a long time. Qu Li's layout and demeanor were really inexplicable.

"Why did you think of looking for Ari?" Ma Yun was not an ordinary person, and wanted to understand Qu Li's thoughts first.

"There are two reasons: look at the problem from the perspective of development, and the experience of China's rise tells us that it is more important to make the cake bigger than the cake. Third-party payment, cash on delivery, and logistics infrastructure are all raising the upper limit of the entire industry. Its lower limit..."

"The second reason is that Shopee's overseas development is subject to logistics. I want to build a platform to integrate third-party warehousing and logistics resources and accumulate experience in China..."

"Aren't you afraid that if you improve the level of social logistics, you won't be able to compete with Ali Taobao?" Ma Yun was still worried.

"I'm afraid, but I don't think Taobao can occupy the entire market. Assuming we don't do anything, the e-commerce market is only one trillion yuan. In ten years, you will occupy 50% and we will occupy 40%. If we build this A nationwide logistics network may increase the market size to 5 trillion yuan. By then, you will occupy 50%, and we will make a profit no matter if we account for 20% or 30%. Moreover, a logistics network will be built..." Qu Li

Two people who are good at flickering discuss the possibility of building a logistics backbone network together, which will definitely require a lot of coins, and neither company is considered rich.

"In order to improve the logistics infrastructure, Mtime.com, which I registered in Xingsha, will raise funds from outsiders, including WeChat." Qu Li said helplessly.

"Financing so early?" Ma Yun really believed in Qu Li's sincerity this time. After WeChat's users exceeded 10 million, after the first version upgrade in January this year, a voice function was added, that is, users can record a The voice is sent to friends through WeChat. Earlier, the logo was changed to a pattern of communication between a large and a small group of people on WeChat.

Once this function was launched, it quickly attracted a large number of users. By the end of March 2011, the number of WeChat users exceeded 30 million, and the domestic users of WeChat approached 10 million. WeChat is arguably already the largest instant messaging application in the world.

Today's meeting discussed the competitive relationship between WeChat, QO, Fetion, and Tencent, and it was only then that everyone knew that Time Company was an innovative business that Qu Li was directly responsible for. The person in charge of WeChat is a young elite introduced to him by Ding Lei of the pig factory.

"I just wanted to create an app that could have one billion users worldwide. I chose mobile instant messaging. At first I wanted to invest. I found a lot of people outside, but they didn't dare to compete with Goose Factory. In the end, Huang Zheng took the initiative to take over. Under this mission..."

"Aren't you afraid of competing with the goose factory?"

"Baidu bought Yihaodian and Goose Factory bought Yixun. They are not afraid of competing with Jumei. Why should I be afraid? Besides, QO is a domestic application, while WeChat is a global application."

"Can WeChat and WeChat communicate with each other?" Ma Huateng suddenly asked

"It was fine before, but now we're separated." Qu Li didn't evade

Although Ma Huateng's goose factory is excellent, and although Qu Li uses WeChat, he still doesn't like this person and this company. Their profit-oriented situation is too serious.

Anyway, everyone knows that Jumei has a WeChat, which is the world's largest mobile instant messaging application with unlimited potential.

Well, this is bragging, whatAPP received $8 million in Series A financing from Sequoia Capital in early 2011, and its valuation at that time was $78.4 million.

It is different in China. Many people think that the success of Goose Factory is the diversion of QO, so they recognize the potential of WeChat even more. Ma Yunjumei will let Shiguang financing also do a good job in logistics. The determination is so great that it should not be underestimated.
