Sure enough, just as Wu Hao and the others expected, the next day was filled with news about G Song’s release of the Android AR system.
This is true at home, and even crazier abroad. Some European and American mainstream media have even praised it, saying that this will be a great invention that will change human life.
They seem to have completely ignored that Wu Hao's smart AR system was released and launched five months ago.
Selective blindness and double standards are already tactics used by these Western media.
To be honest, it is fake that Wu Hao and the others are not envious of such overwhelming advertising. Who allowed G Song to control huge resources? Although they are not convinced, they have to accept this fact.
Of course, the good news is not without them. For example, the above leaders have made it clear that they will firmly support them and encourage them to go out bravely. The country will support them from behind, allowing them to fight boldly with confidence.
Immediately afterwards, relevant departments also stated that they would increase relevant policy support to them to help them better meet this huge challenge.
For example, in terms of taxes, they once again received relevant tax exemptions. Secondly, in other aspects, they also received a lot of great care.
With the strong support of the country, Wu Hao and the others can naturally get started. First of all, they announced an amazing news, that is, the related licensing fees for the smart AR system will be waived. In other words,
All companies can use this smart AR system for free as long as they obtain authorization from Wu Hao and others.
Secondly, in terms of related services, they also provide great discounts and help these manufacturers and enterprises optimize and improve their systems.
Furthermore, for domestic and foreign application developers, Wu Hao and others have also increased relevant profit-sharing and support measures to attract them to join.
For example, set up special funds to support relevant application providers to develop related applications suitable for intelligent AR systems. Or reduce the service sharing fee charged to these application providers from the original 46% to 37%, and give as much profit to these application providers as possible
App vendors who are willing to join.
Finally, it is to provide relevant core components for these participating manufacturers, such as new lithium batteries, ultra-high definition and ultra-high refresh rate screens, and wireless remote charging modules, etc.
Yes, Wu Hao and the others have spent a lot of money this time and have continuously provided a large number of core components to these manufacturers.
Doing so will definitely affect their product production to a certain extent and may even reduce the market competitiveness of their products.
From the current point of view, revenue will definitely be affected to a certain extent. But it is worth it. These manufacturers are like a row of soldiers at the forefront. They are the vanguard against the enemy.
Since they are fighting a war and are the vanguard, they cannot go hungry. Not only cannot they go hungry, they must also be fed.
Only in this way can we have the strength to fight and defeat the opponent.
Of course, selling parts will also bring them very objective benefits. In this way, even if their product sales are affected in the future, they can make up for the lost part by selling parts.
More importantly, they can gain dominance in the field of AR systems in exchange, which will bring them long-term benefits.
"Mr. Wu, Canada just announced that it will impose a 25% protective tariff on the smart products we sell to Canada." Tong Juan hurriedly walked in and said to him.
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this, then motioned for her to sit down and said, "Obviously, he can't help but attack us."
"Damn, that's so shameless." Zhang Jun couldn't help but cursed.
Wu Hao shook his head, and then gave Tong Juan a cup of tea: "We just got news that the European Union may impose a five percent electronic tax on us."
"Electronic tax, isn't it already boycotted by various countries?" Tong Juan asked with some confusion.
“But the EU has always been unwilling to do so, and the electronic tax itself was proposed by them, with the purpose of targeting foreign Internet companies in Europe.
Although we are not an Internet company, our subsidiary Micro Media is responsible for the content operation business of our products, and Europe is also our second largest content operation revenue market after China. Therefore, we are actually very affected."
Tong Juan nodded when she heard this and asked: "Is it just for us or for all Internet technology companies?"
"Is there any difference?" Zhang Jun asked.
"Of course there is a difference." Tong Juan nodded and explained: "If it is just against us, it is discriminatory and unfair treatment. We can appeal to the relevant European courts, or we can ask the country for help, and they will intervene.
If it targets all Internet technology companies, then we don’t have to worry. This will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among all Internet companies and other countries.
Especially for American companies that have a huge market in Europe, I think the United States will definitely be the first to be unwilling.
With so many companies and countries opposed, it is definitely impossible to implement this electronic tax."
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this, and then said to Tong Juan: "I will go back and communicate with the relevant departments in this regard. After all, they stand high and see far, and we will listen to their opinions before we speak.
Tell me what happened to Canada’s 25% tariff. It was so sudden and there was no sign at all?”
Tong Juan nodded solemnly when she heard this: "It's very sudden. We were still negotiating with many cities in Canada to build an AR virtual reality projection landscape project, and now we suddenly announced that we will increase tariffs."
"Haha, the Canadian country has never had any independent opinions. It is completely dependent on the United States. This time it is the first to come out to attack us. There must be the shadow of the United States and G Song behind it." Wu Hao nodded and said calmly.
"What should we do? Canada is our largest market in North America, and it is also the bridgehead for our products to penetrate into the United States. The 25% increase in tariffs is completely intended to shut us out." Zhang Jun
He frowned and said eagerly.
Wu Hao nodded and said: "You are right, they just want to shut us out and then eliminate the influence of our products in North America bit by bit, so as to lay the foundation for their next plan."
Speaking of this, Wu Hao thought for a while and said: "From the current point of view, we may not be able to change anything, let alone make him change his mind.
But even so, we cannot remain indifferent, we still have to respond, and our words must be sharper.
In addition, let the legal department study the legality of the 25% tariff and see if we can make a fuss about it."
"I'm afraid it's difficult." Tong Juan shook her head and said.
Wu Hao smiled and waved his hands and said: "I know it's difficult, but we have to do what we should do, otherwise we will make others mistakenly think that we are easy to bully.
In addition, you can also think of this as a kind of crisis marketing or advertising."
