"How is this price possible? Have they really cut off all their profits?"
Just after the official price of the new Xingyao solid-state battery mobile phone was displayed on the big screen behind Peng Xiangqian, Lei Jun was suddenly shocked, and the words he blurted out subconsciously were mixed with strong surprise.
Even the coffee I just picked up accidentally spilled on my pajamas.
I really can’t believe that such a mobile phone only costs more than 2,000 yuan, which is 200 cheaper than their Xiaomi.
If Xingyao's new mobile phone uses traditional lithium batteries, then the price is not surprising.
However, based on the cost price of solid-state batteries, this price is still set. It can be basically concluded that Warwick is selling at a loss, and the more this new mobile phone is sold, the more it will lose money.
But running a company is not charity.
Lei Jun never believed that Warwick would do this.
Otherwise, he would not have thought that this time the Shining Phone would be unable to compete with Xiaomi in terms of sales volume due to price issues.
"No company would make a loss-making transaction, there must be other circumstances."
After quickly calming down, Lei Jun's brain was also running at high speed at the moment, carefully thinking about possible changes that might occur.
After all, regardless of whether Ren Yuanwei intends to do charity or not, it is certain that the Xingyao solid-state battery mobile phone at this price will definitely ignite users' enthusiasm for purchasing, and I am afraid that the sales of Xiaomi mobile phones will fall to the bottom again.
So he needs to figure out the real cause as soon as possible and formulate countermeasures.
Otherwise, such an opportunity, which I have finally waited for, will slip away from my hands.
"This is really weird."
"If we assume that their pricing actually includes their own profits, then there is only one possibility left."
"Could it be that..."
Just when Lei Jun's thoughts stopped here, a very bold guess suddenly emerged in his mind, and he quickly picked up his cell phone and dialed his secretary's number.
"There will be an impromptu high-level meeting of the company tomorrow morning, and no one will be absent."
As a qualified secretary, it can be said that it is normal to receive calls from leaders late at night to arrange work. Although I still don’t know what happened, when I heard the chairman’s tone was so urgent, the secretary on the other side of the phone also hurriedly answered.
answer.
"It's the chairman."
…
Compared to Lei Jun's unexpected surprise, the live broadcast room was erupting at this moment. No one expected such a big reversal.
Users who were still making trouble and posting comments suddenly fell into collective silence after seeing the prices displayed on the big screen.
I just feel like my face is red, like a child who has done something wrong.
However, after this situation lasted for more than ten seconds, the barrage once again showed an explosive refresh rate, but its atmosphere was completely different from before.
It is simply a large-scale dog-licking scene.
"Oh my god, I got slapped in the face this time, but I still feel so good. Why?"
"It's really shocking. At this price, Warwick is definitely doing charity."
"I admit that my words were a little fierce just now, but now I just want to say long live Xingyao's father."
"This is unbelievable. The price of using solid-state batteries is actually cheaper. Could it be that I'm just rewarding myself too much and it's a bit dazzling."
"Brothers in the live broadcast room, please tell me if I missed the zero at the end."
"Woof woof~"
"While you guys are still here posting barrages, I've already gone out to place an order. I'm afraid I'm too slow at such a cheap price!"
There is no doubt about it.
After the price was officially announced, the reputation of Xingyao solid-state battery mobile phone has been improved.
At the same time, it also brought about a terrifying increase in sales.
For users, everyone wants to use high-performance solid-state batteries in their mobile phones, but they are forced to give up due to price issues. Nowadays, the price of solid-state batteries is no different from traditional lithium batteries, so they must be crazy to buy them.
And there are many people who think that if Xingyao sets such a price, it will definitely not have a lot of supply. If it is slow to sell, they may not be able to buy it later.
Therefore, with the spread of this theory, the moment Xingyao solid-state battery mobile phone was opened for online sale, a large number of accounts placed orders to rush for it.
The five-minute sales volume greatly surpassed Xiaomi's previous data, and it topped the best-selling list of mobile phones on major e-commerce platforms, which shows its popularity.
The next day.
The popularity brought by Xingyao's new product launch conference last night still shows no sign of diminishing.
In addition to being frequently searched on the website platform and causing heated discussions among many netizens, professionals in the industry have also analyzed the situation.
They do not think that setting such a price for Xingyao's new mobile phone is Warwick's charity. After all, if the company wants to ensure stable operation, it is absolutely impossible to engage in loss-making business. If it really wants to engage in charity to repay users, it can use other methods.
As the founder of Warwick, Ren Yuanwei has been working in the shopping mall for such a long time, so he knows this truth.
So with this inference, everyone invariably turned their attention to Xingyuan Batteries, guessing that the price of the solid-state batteries they developed was not as expensive as imagined.
Although Warwick has not made any response to this matter, there are more and more related discussions.
But as the saying goes, some people are happy and some are worried.
It is undoubtedly a very happy thing for users to have access to cheap, high-performance metal solid-state batteries. However, companies at home and abroad that produce traditional lithium batteries suddenly feel tremendous pressure.
I can't imagine what the company will become as a result.
If Xingyuan Battery really overcomes the cost and price problem of solid-state batteries and carries out large-scale mass production, I believe it will soon completely replace the status of lithium batteries.
If they cannot find a new way out by then, they will surely be abandoned by the times.
For this reason, lithium battery production companies such as Sanxing Songxia Ningwang New Energy, which are relatively well-known at home and abroad, have frequently held core meetings to make new plans for the company's next development and strive to avoid being affected by Xingyuan solid-state batteries.
In addition, many related brands are also starting to make moves, hoping to reach cooperation with Xingyuan Battery.

"You all saw Xingyao's new product launch conference last night, it was really unexpected."
Imperial Capital.
Xiaomi headquarters building.
In the conference room, Lei Jun looked around at the core company personnel sitting on both sides, and his slightly heavy voice reached everyone's ears.
But the conference room seemed extremely quiet.
I was stunned that no one dared to speak rashly.
Compared to the cheerful atmosphere of the previous two days, the atmosphere was now extremely solemn.
Everyone knows very well that Xingyao mobile phones have set such a price beyond common sense and will definitely dominate the mid-range mobile phone market.
Their newly improved sales volume will be ruthlessly snuffed out again.
Especially when I think about the promise I made in front of Lei Jun, I naturally dare not speak now, for fear that if I say anything wrong, my boss will get into trouble.
certainly.
As the chairman, how could Lei Jun not know the thoughts of his subordinates?
The key thing now is to work out the company's next step as soon as possible to ensure that its market share will not be completely occupied by Xingyao.
Originally, the use of Tamron chips in Xingyao mobile phones had a certain impact on Xiaomi's sales. Now that the core competitiveness of solid-state batteries is added, the living space of Xiaomi mobile phones is bound to be further squeezed.
Thinking of this, Lei Jun no longer hesitated, and immediately spoke to everyone again: "Stop pretending to be dumb, what do you think of the solid-state batteries produced by Xingyuan?"
When it comes to this place, the core personnel of the company on both sides of the conference table will definitely not be able to remain silent.
After a slight hesitation, someone finally started talking.
"Chairman."
"Judging from the information we have now, the solid-state batteries produced by Xingyuan Company are quite mature."
"The cost is also likely to be reduced to a level similar to that of traditional lithium batteries, otherwise the price of Xingyao's new mobile phones will never be lower than ours."
"We did underestimate the technology that Xingyuan Battery has before."
After this person finished describing the current industry situation, others finally got to the point and talked about their own ideas.
"Solid-state batteries, which are about the same price as lithium batteries, will definitely completely replace lithium batteries in the future, and we need to prepare early."
"Future Technology has planned to build three large-scale battery production bases. When their production capacity increases, it should be time to enter various related industries. We should make arrangements in advance."
"Yes, Chairman, only Huawei uses solid-state batteries. This kind of competitiveness is unmatched by other mobile phone brands."
"I recommend contacting Xingyuan Batteries immediately to purchase their solid-state batteries."
I have to say that the suggestions from the people below hit Lei Jun’s thinking. How could he not react at all when faced with cheaper batteries with stronger performance?
This time the new mobile phone is accepted by Xingyao, but Xiaomi phones must also use this kind of battery as soon as possible.
With his mind running to this point, Lei Jun finally made a decision secretly, and immediately told everyone: "The marketing of our new mobile phone is temporarily suspended. In addition, I will go to Binjiang City in person to discuss cooperation with Xingyuan Battery."
Lei Jun knew the importance of this matter, so after concluding this brief but important meeting, he immediately selected his companions and asked his secretary to arrange the itinerary.
In the afternoon of the same day, he took the people and left the imperial capital.
It can be said to be decisive and quick.
It is worth mentioning that China has achieved such great success in metal solid-state battery technology and has reduced the cost and price to a level similar to that of lithium batteries. This kind of pride and pride must be promoted on external networks.
After seeing in the comments section of the YouTube-related introduction video, those overseas netizens expressed envy and wanted the Xingyao solid-state battery mobile phone to enter overseas markets as soon as possible, I just felt particularly comfortable.
In the past, domestic netizens lamented the various powerful technologies conquered overseas, but now they have finally found their place.
Even Pingguo was affected by the impact of solid-state batteries, and conducted detailed investigations and held technical seminars.
