May is here in a blink of an eye, with the fragrance of roses and many festive days.

It is also the moment when the market competition is the most intense. Bird Mobile has launched a new activity, which also creates a new business for mobile phones, that is, replacing old phones with new ones.

If you have the previous generation, or the waveguide mobile phone of the previous generation, you can depreciate it and get a 20% higher rebate than the old phone market, thereby gaining more customers.

To put it simply, you have a first-generation Bird 223 mobile phone. If you go to the second-hand market to sell it, you can sell it for 1,000 yuan, but if you sell it to Bird Company, you can sell it for 1,200 yuan.

As soon as this move came out, it immediately caused a sensation. At that time, no mobile phone company had such a business. It caused a huge stir. This activity also affected the marketing of the second-hand mobile phone market.

Seeing that the momentum was good, Bird officials immediately announced that "depreciation" would continue forever.

In addition, Bird Company also invited Qin Yan, the lead singer of the "Black Panther Band" at that time, to be its spokesperson. Black Panther was very popular at the time, known as the new hope of rock in the hot summer, and was very popular among young people.

In May, a large company that mainly made electrical appliances also joined the mobile phone industry. It was the famous Haier Company, which was known to thousands of households at that time.

I still remember that there was a cartoon about Haier Brothers when I was a kid, and the response was very good.

Haier has two advantages that other companies do not have. One is channels. Haier has dealers all over the country and has its own counters. Second, Haier has a large workshop, which can be transformed into self-produced products.

Haier mobile phones also entered the market in May, focusing on the Haier n21 mobile phone. It is a silver-gray flip phone that is imitated from a Motorola flip phone. The performance of this phone is similar to other domestic mobile phones, but the price is higher.

It's hundreds cheaper.

At that time, the per capita salary in first-tier cities was only about 1,500, so it was definitely a huge temptation to get a job that was several hundred cheaper.

In addition to Haier, another company that started out as a VCD company has also joined the ranks of mobile phones. It is Bu Bu Gao mobile phone. I believe many people have heard Bu Bu Gao’s classic advertising slogan, which can also be said to be the lyrics.

——There is justice in the world, and your efforts will always be rewarded. It is better to do what you say than to do it. If you want to do it, do your best. Step by step.

In the early 1990s, Bubugao VCD has become popular all over the country, so the biggest advantage of Bubugao mobile phone is familiarity and trust. Bubugao VCD is very easy to use, and its mobile phone should also be very easy to use.

There was a melee in May, but in the middle of the month, Duan Guangyuan, who was in charge of Xia Xing Mobile, took stock of the performance for half a month and was so frightened that Xia Xing Mobile did not increase sales, but instead lost 5% of its market share.

Duan Guangyuan originally thought that Xia Xing, with its blue-ray display and NK chip, would definitely dominate the market. He even wanted to compete with the three mobile phone giants, but he never expected that the result would be like this.

On the afternoon of May 16, Chu Xiongba arrived at the 12th floor of the Imperial Group, followed by Chu Rui and a group of senior executives.

The 12th floor is Xia Xing Mobile Phone Business Department.

After arriving at the office, Chu Xiongba was pleased with the operation of the mobile phone department, "Seeing everyone working so hard shows that you have good management, Manager Duan, did our Xiaxing mobile phone sales in May go well?"

Duan Guangyuan stood respectfully, dripping with cold sweat, and said solemnly: "Slightly, slightly lowered."

"What?" Chu Xiongba couldn't believe it. They used Shanxing's blue-ray display and NK's chips, but the sales volume had dropped. "Bring me the report."

Duan Guangyuan handed the report to Chu Xiongba tremblingly. Chu Xiongba frowned more and more as he looked at it, "Why is this happening? Which link is the problem?"

"Although our mobile phones use Sanxing's Blu-ray and NK's chips, the price has also risen accordingly. Other domestic mobile phones are reducing prices and taking the line of people-friendly. As for the Big Three mobile phones, although their prices are high,

The market has recognized it, and users have recognized it, so our Xia Xing..."

"Useless stuff! If we can't make our mobile phone one of the top three domestic mobile phones in the next half month, get out of here."

Duan Guangyuan is not afraid of being fired, but what he is afraid of is that Chu Xiongba is messing with him behind his back. There was a marketing manager who made a mess in the business, causing the company to lose money, and finally disappeared from the world.

At this time, Duan Guangyuan was riding a tiger, unable to get off, and regretted coming to the Imperial Group in the first place.

After returning to Chu's house, Chu Xiongba was overdue. At this time, he received a call from Chu Yuyan, saying that he was already on his way back to Shanghai and would arrive tomorrow morning. He hoped to meet Lin Bufan and talk about it.

Chip thing.

Chu Xiongba said that he must start the chip business immediately. Only by mastering the most advanced chip technology can he become a supplier of all mobile phones, that is, he can become a supplier from the competition of mobile phones.

Chu Yuyan said that this matter needs to be considered in the long term, and producing chips is not something that happens overnight.

Lin Bufan is also busy here. While taking care of the business of Mortal Technology, he also has to take time to go to school to talk about things. His parents have returned from Citi Country, and the couple also had a great time.

Inside the office.

Yang Qiuyu and Lin Bufan are discussing the chip plan.

"It's true that Cheng Yaojin came out halfway, and Chu Yuyan came to ruin my good deeds. This woman is not simple. Her resume is so awesome. It's not easy to hide it. I plan to start with her CCC Foundation.

, causing the foundation to lose money, causing Chu Xiongba to lose trust in Chu Yuyan, and thus invest money in the chip trap. As long as the Chu family injects a large amount of funds, he will be trapped." Lin Bufan said.

"According to the information given by Zhou Zhengjing, this Chu Yuyan studied at Columbia University, and the CCC Foundation's investments are very stable. Without the kind of risky investments, it would be difficult to lose money." Yang

Qiu Yu said.

"Lao Yang, any investment is risky. I admit that Chu Yuyan does have a good investment strategy, but there will always be mistakes. I am planning this matter. In the afternoon, Chu Xiongba called and said that Chu Yuyan

If you want to see me, you obviously want to spy on me, so good, I have a game here and she can catch up."

"What game?"

"Hahaha, I won't say much more. I will tell you in detail when I come back."

In the blink of an eye, the next day came and Lin Bufan set off for Shanghai again.

Arriving at the Chu residence at 9 o'clock in the morning, Lin Bufan specially brought a piece of exquisite heart carved from Tianhuang stone. The so-called one or two Tianhuang stones cost ten taels of gold. Even in ancient times, Tianhuang stone was very valuable.

This exquisite heart is exquisitely carved, and inside is a Maitreya Buddha, which means that there is a Bodhisattva in the heart who can ascend to heaven after attaining enlightenment.

After entering Chu's house, he greeted a few familiar maids, and Lin Bufan also brought them gifts.
