Chapter 359 The partially dismembered wither!(1/2)
For such a sensational news, the relevant big players in the industry have uncharacteristically not discussed and communicated online.
The discussion has long been concluded.
It was also expected that the withered mobile phones would be withdrawn from the display cabinet in the mobile business hall.
On the contrary, many netizens on the Internet have discussed it.
"This is so cruel, you won't even spend the night!"
"Did you say it was arranged by China Mobile, or by Bolang, or was it really a spontaneous act by consumers?"
"It doesn't matter what the truth is. A mobile business store in Shanghai was withdrawn due to poor quality of mobile phones. A major collapse is inevitable."
"The total number of existing units should only be a few million. If you include functional machines, it may be a little more. However, the loss of at most 3 to 5 billion is not big for Wei Luo."
“I don’t know how it will develop in the future.”
"..."
As netizens said, the collapse of declining mobile phones is a foregone conclusion.
Early the next morning, mobile business halls in many provinces across the country announced the cancellation of display cases for fallen mobile phones and initiated return recalls.
Affected by this, two operators, China Unicom and China Telecom, also made the same decision.
The three major operators cannot be regarded as being in the same breath, but they can also be regarded as having the same origin.
In this general environment, let alone a failing mobile phone, if there are two or three of the same brand, the result will be the same.
If you lose, you lose.
Or if it fails through fair means, no one can save the decline.
Wilt didn't even struggle in the first place.
Let the situation fester.
At the same time, the Hong Kong stock market opened, and the stocks that had fallen sharply crashed at the opening, plummeting again.
This time it was Leek, and the organization collapsed in all directions.
What is different from before is that Weilui carried out a rescue operation this time and officially raised funds, but it did not help stop the stock price from falling.
On the basis of yesterday, another 700 million US dollars evaporated out of thin air.
Market capitalization hits new lows.
It is now less than US$6 billion, almost equal to the declining asset value.
Although many institutions at home and abroad joined the war and profited from it, Wen Liang, who always went to the secondary market to collect money through asset management companies, remained a cold observer and did not take any action.
On the one hand, Wen Liang is not very interested in the dish.
What he wants is for Bolang Terminal to become the largest among domestic mobile phone manufacturers, and to climb to the top despite the declining mobile phone business that took the initiative!
This also serves to tell the outside world that Bolang has the ability and strength to make any individual or company that dares to interfere with Bolang's development affairs through other means to pay the heaviest price.
On the other hand, Wen Liang has already tasted a little bit of it.
He is not good at stock trading, but he knows a thing or two about seeing the essence through phenomena. Apart from the symbolic accumulation of funds due to decline, there is no clear way to take over... Xia.
The market appears to be active and chaotic, but is actually chaotic and orderly.
It’s not just ordinary people who can control this situation. I’ll probably know it at the end of the day.
…………
…………
At a time when the mobile phone industry is experiencing sudden changes and the market structure is chaotic and unclear.
Wen Liang is meeting with Lei Jun, who is visiting.
"Mr. Wen."
"Mr. Lei."
"The weather in Beijing is not as comfortable as in the south."
"Yes, but it's very pleasant inside."
"..."
After a brief exchange of greetings, Lei Jun couldn't help but praise: "Xinghai 1 is really excellent and has set a high-end example for our domestic mobile phone brands."
"It also brings new hope to mobile 3G."
Wen Liang waved his hand: "Wherever, we are just willing to invest."
This time he did not pander, but told the truth: "We are also under a lot of pressure. If the listing ends dismally, we will lose at least 20 to 3 billion yuan."
"A good product will never end badly." Lei Jun said with determination.
Wen Liang didn't agree, but he didn't deny it either.
There are many good products in the electronic product industry that have failed miserably. Bolang Terminal firmly believes that Xinghai 1 will not hit the market. It is based on the success of Bolang's application of the Internet ecosystem and the wide acceptance of the Xingchen system.
It’s not just based on good and amazing products.
Apple has had great products at one time and then failed.
For example, at the dawn of the new century, Steve Jobs made his debut with the graphical interface masterpiece Aqua, which greatly changed the graphical interface image of Apple's maOS. However, the PowerG4Cube brought at another Maworld conference just six months later was a hit. It was discontinued just one year after its release.
The industrial design of that product is quite stunning from today's perspective, it is transparent, portable, and fanless...
After the gossip, Lei Jun got down to business: "Our Redmi project is not going very smoothly, and it is even worse than we imagined."
With special emphasis, Lei Jun continued: "The products in the domestic supply chain that can directly supply us now are a bit less than ideal. We hope to reach strategic supply cooperation with Bolang Terminal."
Wen Liang was a little puzzled. He looked at Lei Jun and said bluntly: "That shouldn't be the case. Bolang has no habit of doing monopoly business. The supply chain we have invested in and supported cannot only supply Bolang terminals exclusively."
If the same supply chain can be used to produce the same excellent products, then Apple would be underestimating it.
There is still a so-called ‘unique secret recipe’ here.
For example, Apple’s core chips and core software.
Of course, Bolang terminal is no exception, it also has core chips and core software.
There is also a training issue involved.
For Xinghai 1, this thing can be roughly considered as trying to find the best combination through massive investment of funds.
Of course, it requires a certain amount of technical accumulation, and this is what Bolang Lab does.
Therefore, there is no exclusive agreement in the domestic supply chain supported by Bolang Terminal Investment, and several major parts and components are still imported from Samsung and other companies.
Lei Jun took a deep look at Wen Liang and saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, so he had to tell the truth: "It was like this before, but now it is slightly different. The decline, together with the suppression of Bolang's terminal system by dozens of supply chain manufacturers, has made the supply chain The manufacturer is a little dissatisfied.”
"This is a small problem." Wen Liang understood, "Don't worry, Mr. Lei. In business, everyone still understands the principle of one moment and one lifetime."
Lei Jun shook his head slightly and got straight to the point: "We hope to use Bolang Terminal's supply system to re-create this Redmi phone."
"For so long, we have wasted 40 to 50 million R&D funds..."
Faced with such a frank Lei Jun, Wen Liang had no intention of shirk: "That's no problem, but I would like to take the liberty of asking Mr. Lei a question."
Seeing Lei Jun nod, Wen Liang said bluntly: "What is the pricing range of your red rice?"
"The planned selling price is 700 to 900 yuan." Lei Jun didn't hide it. He knew that this range was not the target of Bolang Terminal and would not create competition.
Wen Liang said frankly: "I personally hope that your company can send someone to Yangcheng to connect with Bolang terminal and negotiate the best solution. As far as I know, this price should need careful adjustment."
Lei Jun suddenly realized: "We were careless."
He just thought why Wen Liang was concerned about the price issue, but now he fully understands that the supply chain system trained by Bolang Terminal is difficult to directly provide a solution at this price.
The prices of ZTE C1 and V1 are also over 1,000 yuan.
In the thousand-yuan machine market, two to three hundred yuan less is a big difference. If Xiao Gaoliang just chooses randomly, there is no need to come to Bolang Terminal.
Since Xiao Gaoliang wants to directly adopt the overall solution of Bolang Terminal, he can only find Bolang Terminal instead of Wenliang.
Farewell to Lei Jun, Wen Liang was also a little... emotional.
He didn't think that the confrontation between Bolang and Weiluo would have a profound impact on the industry, but he still didn't expect that Lei Jun would be left with no choice.
Unless Hongmi changes its name.
Don’t do 3GTD, and don’t choose the domestic industry chain.
There may be thousands of domestic suppliers of mobile phone electronic components, but most of them are concentrated in the ultra-low-end. For MTK solutions or the simplest Android system solutions, the price can even be as low as 299.
So there aren’t that many that can really get on the stage.
In the middle of last year, Li Ze took the lead in investing in advance to support a group of the best supply chain manufacturers, and Bolang Laboratory also developed a group of them on its own. There were not many left, and those who were slightly capable were basically in the decline camp. Then this situation of no choice was formed.
…………
…………
In the afternoon, Hong Kong stocks closed.
As the major shareholder of Weiluo Holdings, China Science and Technology Computing Institute issued a statement unilaterally announcing the launch of a share repurchase plan for the Hong Kong-listed Weiluo Group.
