Chapter 77 Jobs' Humiliation And Entanglement 【Subscription】

"Mr. Xu, in the first 30 days, domestic and foreign orders have reached 1.38 million units. 21

"As of yesterday, Huaxing has shipped a total of 2.76 million units."

"Whether it is the increase in orders or the increase in shipments, it has exceeded our previous expectations.

Since Father Xu took over the acquisition of the chip factory, Xu Ye has resumed his usual work rhythm, and is now listening to Li Dafu's report.

"What about the domestic market?"

Taking the teacup out of the boiling water, Xu Ye asked without raising his head.

"In May, the cumulative domestic sales volume was 201,268 units, 25% higher than our monthly sales forecast of 15 units."

Li Dafu is familiar with these data by heart.

"I saw that those international giants launched a large-scale price reduction promotion for tape players and CD players. Will it have a big impact on us?"

He poured tea into two cups, pushed them to Li Dafu, and asked a question.

"There is an impact, but a small one."

"People who buy these price-cut products are mainly those with weaker purchasing power, and they are not our target users."

"After all, our Huaxing D1 is positioned as high-end, targeting high-end user groups."

"This group, no matter whether the other party lowers the price or not, will actually not buy it, because they only buy the best!"

"Our Huaxing D1| is just the best in the field of portable music playback."

At the end, Li Dafu had a look of pride.

"So, we still did something good for some consumers in disguise?"

Xu Ye took a sip of tea and said something with a smile.

In fact, Xu Ye had expected this situation a long time ago.

Compared with traditional walkmans, Huaxing D1 is like a new energy vehicle with a full battery life of tens of thousands of kilometers, and the manufacturer temporarily provides free charging service, compared with traditional fuel vehicles.

Even if the price of new energy vehicles is twice that of traditional fuel vehicles, no one is willing to choose fuel vehicles unless they really have no money.

At this time, the traditional Walkman is the fuel car mentioned above.

A cassette or CD only has 20 or so songs at most. If you want to listen to others, you have to continue to spend money to buy them, just like refueling a traditional car.

The Huaxing D1 is like the new energy vehicle mentioned above. The battery life of a single charge is many times that of a fuel vehicle.

Huaxing D1 has a capacity of up to 1000 songs, which is also dozens of times the capacity of tape or CD.

The current Huaxing music software can be downloaded to Huaxing D1 for free as long as you register an account.

This is equivalent to the free charging service provided by new energy vehicle manufacturers. With such a huge advantage, what can traditional Walkmans do?

"That's right, but I don't know if it's hurting them to buy something that goes out of style quickly, haha!"

Li Dafu was taken aback for a moment, then he laughed out loud after realizing it.

"By the way, let me tell you something, our Huaxing D1, with a monthly production capacity of 1.5 million units, will not increase any more."

"According to reliable sources, Fruit Company and Mathis Company, the two companies that follow the trend the fastest, will have their products finalized by the end of this month at the latest."

Before Li Dafu could bring it up first, after pouring him another cup of tea, Xu Ye blocked what he wanted to say in advance.

Because Huaxing D1 is an example that can be "imitated", even if it took some time to circumvent patent restrictions, it still cannot prevent them from entering the game, nor can it stop them.

After all, the components used in Huaxing D1 can be purchased from the market.

Since Huaxing can do it, of course they can too.

The difference is nothing more than a gap in process design.

"so fast?"

Li Dafu was taken aback.

Calculated in this way, there are only six or seven months left for Huaxing D1 to monopolize the market.

"This is already considered slow. You must know that although those giants officially entered the game a little later, their research and development speed is also not slow.

"It's been a month too late. After about September, they will go on sale one after another."

"To be honest, it's beyond my expectation that Huaxing D1 can eat alone for such a long time."

In all fairness, this result was completely beyond Xu Ye's expectations.

"Indeed, from this point of view, after Huaxing D1 enters August, sales will inevitably be affected."

As for the source of Xu Ye's news, Li Dafu never asked, and chose to believe it directly.

Expansion of production is as simple as it sounds, but it will take time. When the expansion is completed, competing products will almost be on the market...

"So, after entering August, according to market feedback, the output of Huaxing D1 will gradually decrease, and the production of Huaxing D2 will begin."

Seeing that Li Dafu understood what he meant, Xu Ye continued.

"I understand. I will lead people to make relevant plans in advance." Li Dafu nodded solemnly.

"Not only do we have to plan for this, but after the competing products are launched, Huaxing D1 must choose the right time to start the price reduction promotion model."

"In terms of price, the foreign price adjustment range is between 339-369 US dollars, and the domestic price is directly set at 2499 yuan. Your sales department will first make a plan based on this."

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ye gave Li Dafu the countermeasures that he had thought up long ago.

After the competing products are launched, Huaxing D1 will reduce the price for the first time, and it will also be the last price reduction, giving full play to its last residual heat to strike a fierce blow at the competing products!

And when Xu Ye and Li Dafu were discussing how to deal with the launch of competing products, it was already late at night in the beautiful country on the other side of Blue Star.

"Falder, is this our final product form?"

The appearance is similar to Huaxing D1, because the technology is not up to the optimal design of Huaxing D1, the size is even a circle larger than Huaxing D1.

Almost the same LCD screen, just a slightly different shape.

Similar selection discs, wrong, this can not be similar, that is Huaxing's patent.

The up, down, left, and right plus the physical buttons determined in the middle are more cumbersome to operate than Huaxing's selection dial.

Similar systems, although not as smooth as Huaxing's, but the difference is not very big.

Similar supporting music software, but in this regard, the fruit has made a comeback. Its I-TUNES music software appeared earlier.

That is to say, apart from the high point of "seniority", it is far inferior to Huaxing Music Software in terms of user experience and the richness of song resources.

Everything is about the same, or worse!

Looking at the product in his hand, which was 70% similar to Huaxing D1, Tian Bosi's face was full of humiliation and entanglement.

Jobs couldn't imagine that such a great company as Guoguo would be reduced to "copying" other products.

This is simply a shame in his view, countless times, Jobs wanted to terminate the project.

Because, as the soul of fruit, Jobs has never been able to design a product that surpasses Huaxing D1.

However, when thinking about the current bad situation of the fruit company, they have to bite the bullet and continue to develop.

It's just that every time the project advances by one point, Jobs understands the pride of the fruit and loses one point.

When Jobs saw the almost finalized product, he understood that the fruit was no longer that great fruit.

The pride that belongs to the fruit has been stepped on by him, unless the item is directly cut off.

To live or to die has become a multiple-choice question that makes Jobs extremely entangled. (Hao Wang)

"The image of Huaxing D1 is too classic. If these current components are used, Huaxing D1 will become an unavoidable hurdle.

"Whether it is our fruit or other companies, it is basically impossible to surpass it!"

Unlike Jobs' shame and entanglement, Fard shrugged with a calm face.

In his opinion, things are all those things, Huaxing D1 has already played well, no matter how they design, they can't escape the shadow of Huaxing D1.

Unless you do the opposite and go in the direction of big, thick, and weird...

In this case, just like those mobile phones in later generations, the chips, screens, and lens modules are all made by the same manufacturer. It is too difficult to be different.

I don't want to be homogenized, so I have to work hard on the shape of the camera.......

"That's pretty much the end product. So, Mr. Jobs, what's your final opinion?"

In the end, Fard threw the question again to Jobs, who hadn't moved since he said that!
