None of the six people, including Li Baohong, knew that Xiao Qi had actually made a decision at this time.

He decided to give up the market of mid-to-low-end smartphones priced below 2,000 yuan, giving these Chinese smart electronics manufacturers room for development!

The previous 16g version was priced at 1,999. Xiao Qi really wanted to benefit fans all over China, but this price was a bit too mysterious.

It just happens to be stuck at the 2000 mark, making it impossible for others to get up and down again.

This is the wisdom of Rebus. In his previous life, he set the price of Xiaomi mobile phone at 1999. It was really not a random number. It was after countless deductions and considerations that he set the best price.

Xiao Qi just used it casually at first, without thinking too much.

Now that these manufacturers who are interested in smart electronics come to talk about it, Xiao Qicai feels that the price is indeed very high and makes others uncomfortable. It has not made European and American manufacturers uncomfortable for a long time. These domestic manufacturers are also worried about it.

In this case, Xiao Qi is of course willing to make small modifications and increase the price to 1999 to give them a certain amount of room for development.

Otherwise, this group of manufacturers will fail no matter what they do, and they will face the risk of failure from the beginning.

As for the appropriate level to raise the price, Xiao Qi only had a rough idea for a while.

For example, prices such as 2188 and 2199 are acceptable, as are prices of 88 and 99.

But in this case, the price of the .32g version will also need to increase significantly.

Therefore, raising prices is not that simple. All aspects must be taken into consideration. If one factor is not considered well, it will cause a lot of complaints.

Of course, there will definitely be complaints about the price increase. Fans are accustomed to low prices and high quality treatment, and they will definitely be unhappy if it suddenly goes up by several hundred yuan.

However, Xiao Qi is not helpless. From a certain perspective, the luck of these six major manufacturers is really good.

It was released in December 2007. According to the rule of Fairy Company's products being updated every year and a half, a new generation of 2 will be launched exactly in June.

Model 2 has now been experimentally assembled and tested in all aspects, and will enter large-scale mass production in May.

Compared with 2, there have been some improvements in pu and gpu chips, screen pixels, and appearance. Although it is not a disruptive improvement, it is definitely reasonable to increase the price by two to three hundred.

.

This kind of price increase for upgrading is much better than announcing that I am going to increase the price for no reason.

However, Xiao Qi only plans to increase prices in China, and the prices abroad will remain low to prevent being taken advantage of by Nokia, Samsung, etc.

Therefore, how to deal with domestic price increases and foreign price increases depends on the ability of Fairy Company's public relations department.

Experts from the Fairy Company Laboratory have long had a system for valuing various patents, and all patents have a price.

In the morning of the next day, Xiao Qi had just coaxed Xiao Shui'er to fall asleep after eating and drinking enough, when he got a call from there.

"Based on the fact that they all use the same patents, at half the price, the patent royalty fee for each mobile phone should be about 280 yuan." Sun Manxuehui reported, "However, among these companies, Huawei and ZTE own the patents themselves.

A little more, so their price should be around 260, and the rest will be indispensable."

Xiao Qi nodded.

The price of one of their mobile phones is mostly around 2,000 yuan, so the patent fee paid to Xiao Qi alone accounts for 14% of the price, which is indeed not a small amount of money.

If Xiao Qi doesn't discount, the patent plus chip plus components will probably account for half of the selling price, right?

No wonder Rebus’s Xiaomi mobile phone sold so well in his previous life. In the first few years, he still complained about poverty everywhere, saying that he was losing money on each phone he sold.

After accumulating so many patent pools, it was finally time for Fairy Company to start making big money.

According to the contract with the six major manufacturers for a total of 300 million mobile phones a year, Xiao Qi collects patent fees from them as high as more than 80 billion yuan a year, which is basically the annual profit of two Minsheng Banks.

This does not include the various parts and components they purchased from Fairy Company, as well as future chip purchases, etc. Added together, the profit of 100 billion a year is not to mention.

But you can't say that Xiao Qi is exploiting the six major manufacturers.

First of all, if Xiao Qi doesn’t make money, foreigners will also make their money, and they will make more money.

Then again, it is one thing whether other foreign companies are willing to transfer patents to them now. After all, it would be great if I could occupy the market on a large scale and make much more money than some patent fees.

"Just give it to them according to this amount." Xiao Qi said.

"What if they think the price is too high?" Sun Manxue asked.

"No, as long as they are not stupid, they should know what a huge advantage this is." Xiao Qi shook his head and said, "If we want to reduce the number, it will be greedy. This kind of company will not cooperate! Don't you

Do you think they are the only six companies that want to cooperate with Fairy Company?"

"Haha, of course not only." Sun Manxue said with a smile.

Although he is in charge of the laboratory, he also travels frequently, both to inspect technology and to recruit people, so he is also familiar with major electronics companies.

The current six companies are either industry leaders or have state-owned assets in them, so only by joining forces can Yu Chengsheng be alerted and asked to come forward to convene negotiations between the two parties.

There are also many other electronic companies, as well as companies that are interested in entering the smart electronics industry.

Many people have been in contact with Fairy Company since last year, asking about the possibility of cooperation. However, Xiao Qi felt that the time had not come yet, so Fairy Company has not relented for the time being.

When selling patents, technologies, and parts, you don’t have to care about big companies or small companies. Anyway, large and reputable companies use each mobile phone as the charging unit, while small companies directly stipulate that money should be used to buy patents. Fairy Company will lose money no matter what.

No.

"Starting from these six major companies, if any company comes to us for cooperation in the future, then agree to them." Xiao Qi said: "I have already told Zhou Bo that the form of cooperation will be in accordance with these six major companies.

Only by allowing everyone to enjoy this benefit can we achieve the results of letting a hundred flowers bloom."

Xiao Qi is actually very much looking forward to the fact that Xiaomi, Oppo, Meizu, Coolpad, OnePlus, and Nubia can also develop in this life, and even second-rate Coca-Cola, Smartisan, TL, Tianyu, Konka, etc. can also bloom.

, prospering the smartphone market throughout the world.

In fact, when Xiao Qi was reincarnated, the smartphones from Hua Kingdom in his previous life had not gone abroad very much.

First, Apple and Samsung are too strong, and Chinese smartphones can only struggle to compete for the share of mid- to low-end smartphones. There is no energy left to develop abroad.

Secondly, it is also because China’s smartphones are in the accumulation stage and are not yet ready to compete with others abroad.

However, before Xiao Qi was reincarnated, he had heard that companies such as Rebus and Meizu were already preparing to launch efforts in India and Southeast Asia. This is a sign of ambition, and this is also very commendable.

.

On the contrary, those companies that only focus on the current one-third of an acre may not achieve much success in the end.

If they still have such ambitions in this life, then Xiao Qi will definitely give them varying degrees of support, possibly even greater than what he gives to these six major companies.

"good."

Sun Manxue answered with some excitement.

One can imagine how much shock the entire electronics industry will experience after it spreads this hour!

After Baodao chip manufacturer created the "integrated baseband version", even people who don't understand mobile phones can make mobile phones just like when Xiao Qi started his business.

Now that Xiao Qi has opened up his huge patent pool so that everyone can purchase the application, plus the Android system is free, most of the biggest problems in making smartphones have been solved.

Although it is certainly impossible for everyone to make a smartphone, as long as you have some experience in mobile phone research and development, it will not be too difficult to make a smartphone.

Imagine that under the cultivation of Fairy Company, smart electronic manufacturers in China have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain!

Even though many smartphone manufacturers may not succeed or fail, there will definitely not be too few left behind in the great waves.

These dozen or dozens of smartphone manufacturers, under the dispatch and command of Fairy Company, went abroad to conquer cities and territories, and competed with international manufacturers... Thinking about such a scene will make people feel excited!

How can a company be considered successful in the industry?

In addition to the well-deserved number one product, the influence it has on other companies in the industry is also a measure.

When everyone listens to Fairy Company and makes money by relying on the technology patents provided by Fairy Company, that is when Fairy Company sticks to its word.

By that time, Fairy Company will be the emperor of the entire smart electronics industry, dominating the world!

As the vice president of this dominant company, Sun Manxue has naturally reached the top of his career. This kind of feeling of seeing all the small things at a glance is not what he could have imagined when he was an ordinary vice president of the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China five years ago.

Therefore, at any time, whether you have the ability or not is one thing. It is more important to be with the right person. (To be continued)
