Chapter 281 Direct loss of 100 million

"Okay, after I sort out the paper, I will submit the results in the next few days."

Optical quantum computers and superconducting quantum computers are only two options for quantum computers, not all options.

Before the world is determined, no one can be sure which direction is the best direction.

In the next few days, Xu You organized the paper and submitted it.

Compared with horizontal projects, the project bonus for such vertical projects may be much less.

But for Xu You, it is a greater honor.

In order to complete these important vertical projects, Xu You refused many offers and was offered horizontal projects worth hundreds or tens of millions.

Xu You will not have any regrets about this.

…

On this day, Lin Shi found Xu You and reported to Xu You the progress of her project.

Lin Shi's topic is her graduation project.

In fact, even if Lin Shi no longer does a new graduation project and comes up with some of the work she has done in Xu You's project, she will already be fully qualified for her graduation defense.

But Lin Shi still insisted on working on a brand new project of her own, which made Xu You highly praised Lin Shi.

Influenced by Xu You, Lin Shi was also very interested in superconductivity.

The topic chosen by Lin Shi is also related to superconductivity.

"Yes, the current direction of the project is basically within the plan, and the progress is maintained well. In April, the project should be completed."

Because it is an undergraduate graduation project, the issues Lin Shi studies will not be as complex as Xu You’s projects.

For Lin Shi, it was completely within her capabilities, and it was even a bit relaxing.

"By the way, Teacher Xu, do you have time tonight? Luo Wenkun wants us to have dinner together. His first-generation mobile phone is about to be released."

"Already released? So soon?"

These days, Xu You's experience has been used in scientific research and teaching, and he has not paid attention to Luo Wenkun's entrepreneurial affairs.

But this matter is also very important to Xu You.

This is not just a matter of Luo Wenkun's personal entrepreneurship.

It is also a new hope for China’s science and technology industry.

From the very beginning of the app, now the first batch of mobile phones have been released.

Luo Wenkun is already a moderately successful entrepreneur.

"Well, Luo Wenkun raised two rounds of capital before. The company has a lot of money and the ability to make mobile phones. Because of the success of Xueba Community, many users have expressed their belief that Fulong Technology can create a good mobile phone.

Come out. So far, the number of mobile reservations has exceeded 100,000."

"Awesome. What's the price of his mobile phone?"

"1999 yuan per unit is not expensive. According to Luo Wenkun, it is the positioning of a high-end machine and the price of a mid-range machine. Because it is the first batch of products, it is regarded as a feedback to old customers. The company is completely subsidizing the money.

Sell."

Xu You took a look at the configuration of this phone and found that the configuration was indeed good.

Not only the main hardware such as chips, but also the top-of-the-line Android devices.

Even some relatively minor parts were not castrated.

In comparison, machines from other manufacturers with the same configuration cost three to four thousand.

Xu You even had some doubts about how Luo Wenkun achieved this price.

If it is really sold for money, then the amount of money paid will definitely not be a small amount.

In the evening, Xu You, Lin Shi, Lou Song, and Luo Wenkun met in the campus restaurant.

"Here, let me show you the prototype!"

As soon as they met, Luo Wenkun couldn't wait to take out several prototypes from his bag and give them to everyone to experience.

This prototype is not just a model, it is no different from the actual mobile phone sold, but it is not sold to the outside world.

Xu You tried to use this machine, and the overall feeling was really good.

"Okay, the first mobile phone can achieve this level. Isn't it no worse than what other major manufacturers do?"

"No, it's still far from the best. I can only say that no big problems have been found so far with this phone. The biggest advantage is that it has high configuration and low price. If the price hadn't been set lower, there would definitely not be any

So many people have booked it.”

Due to technical and time constraints, all the hardware of this phone is produced by other manufacturers.

It can be said that it is a completely assembled machine.

Of course, including system UI design, mobile phone appearance design, etc., the company still has its own technology.

"I'm a little embarrassed to say it. I used to laugh at other manufacturers for assembling machines. At least they have some of their own hardware products. On my Fulong 1, none of the hardware belongs to my company. I'm a little bit embarrassed.

It’s so embarrassing to promote the technology of this mobile phone.”

"Needless to say, it's already very difficult to be able to do this when we first started making mobile phones. What about assembling a mobile phone? I think the most important thing is that the mobile phone should be able to run stably and not get stuck at every turn, just cause it to heat up or something.

.First do a good job in quality control, and then on this basis, we can explore specific positioning.”

Xu You feels that no matter what you do, you must start with imitation and learning. Only after reaching a certain level can you consider your own style and positioning.

In today's mobile phone market, it is indeed too difficult to immediately create a mature product with its own characteristics.

After Lou Song and Lin Shi experienced this phone for a while, they both expressed satisfaction.

"Luo Wenkun, if you calculate it all, how much does a mobile phone cost?"

"In total, it costs 3,000 per unit," Luo Wenkun said.

Hearing this number, Xu You, Lin Shi, and Lou Song were all a little surprised.

Because the price of this phone is only 1,999 yuan.

In this way, if Luo Wenkun sells a mobile phone, he will lose 1,000 yuan.

For 100,000 mobile phones, Luo Wenkun would directly lose 100 million.

"So, you spent 100 million to make this phone?" Xu You asked in surprise.

"Yes, making mobile phones costs so much money. Otherwise, why didn't I dare to make mobile phones in the first place, even assembling them? Users must have great doubts about this brand-new brand. I

If it’s too expensive, no one will buy it.”

Because many of the people who pre-ordered this phone are users in the Xueba community, mainly students.

It is from this perspective that Luo Wenkun believes that the focus is on cost-effectiveness, which makes them interested in pre-ordering this phone.

This strategy is a bit like the strategy of rice phones.

"But we are definitely different from rice. If we keep promoting the concept of cost-effectiveness and want to transform into high-end products in the future, people will think that you are only about cost-effectiveness, and that impression will be engraved in the minds of customers. If there are no big problems with this generation,

In the next generation, we will develop our own hardware and create a higher-end brand."
