"The Daqian has finally made a move!" After being in the limelight for more than a month, Hu Zhibiao, who had become a multimillionaire, finally saw the Daqian make a move. Hu Zhibiao had been waiting for this move for a long time.
Now, the Daqian was already a giant in Hua Xia. Countless entrepreneurs looked forward to it, feared it, and wanted to defeat it. Hu Zhibiao also knew that he had touched the Daqian's cheese, so he was bound to face the Daqian's counterattack.
This had always made Hu Zhibiao feel terrified.
After all, there were too many rumors about the Daqian in the market now. Many of them said that the Boss Jia had started from scratch and was the God of Business with unparalleled means.
However, Hu Zhibiao didn't care about these. He felt that the Boss Jia was just lucky, smart, and ruthless. Hu Zhibiao wasn't worse than the Boss Jia.
What really scared Hu Zhibiao was the rumored power behind the Daqian.
At this time, there were various rumors in the room. There was a certain power behind the Daqian, and the Boss Jia was the spokesperson of that power. Some people even said that the Boss Jia was the grandson of that power. Anyway, all kinds of rumors were very mysterious. The Boss Jia had at least a dozen illegitimate children of that power.
This made Hu Zhibiao feel very scared. If it was a business competition, Hu Zhibiao was confident that he could withstand it. However, if the Boss Jia used some official means and sent people to check his business license and tax situation every day, Hu Zhibiao could only escape.
Even if Hu Zhibiao really had no problems, he couldn't withstand such an investigation!
In this way, after a period of fear, Hu Zhibiao finally saw the Daqian make a move.
"It turned out to be a price reduction!" The Daqian's final move made Hu Zhibiao feel relieved.
The Daqian didn't use the means he was most afraid of. They just began to reduce the price, and this was also within Hu Zhibiao's expectations.
And after seeing the Daqian's specific methods, Hu Zhibiao even had a hint of disdain.
"Humph, they want to compete, but they also want to show off. It seems that the Daqian has finally done something stupid!" Hu Zhibiao laughed when he learned that the Daqian's final promotional price was 5998 yuan.
In private, Hu Zhibiao had dealt with and deduced the Daqian's various actions. He even stood from the Daqian's perspective and came up with three plans.
The best plan was to introduce encrypted VCD discs. This way, the Aiduo VCD players would become useless. This was what Hu Zhibiao was most worried about. In order to deal with this situation, Hu Zhibiao even contacted foreign CD burner manufacturers. He planned to burn VCD discs if the situation got worse.
However, the CD burner was too expensive. One CD burner cost 200,000 USD. If they wanted to meet the demand of the whole country in batches, they would need at least 30 CD burners. In total, it would cost 6 million USD, or 30 million RMB.
If it wasn't because he had no other choice, Hu Zhibiao didn't want to go to this step. This was also the most troublesome move for Hu Zhibiao.
The best plan was to reduce the price to 5666 yuan, which was the same price as the Aiduo VCD players. This made Hu Zhibiao extremely afraid.
This was because the most famous VCD player brand in Hua Xia was the Daqian brand. When all the VCD players were in the same price range, Hu Zhibiao knew that he would never be able to compete with the Daqian VCD players.
Facing this move, Hu Zhibiao could only continue to reduce the price. Both sides would have a price war with the Daqian and compete with the cost control ability. But even so, Hu Zhibiao still felt that he would win. This was because the history of the world's business had proven that.
The bigger the company, the more problems there would be. His operating cost was much higher than those small companies. So, in terms of cost control, small companies were better than big companies.
So, if it really came down to a price war, Hu Zhibiao could only accept it and lower his cost to the lowest. He would lower his cost to the point where it was lower than the Daqian's cost. That way, he would still win.
The Daqian's worst plan was to maintain the same price and take over the high-end market.
If this was the case, Hu Zhibiao was not worried at all. This was because Hu Zhibiao had never thought of monopolizing the entire market. He only wanted to give the high-end market to the Daqian. Anyway, the high-end market might look expensive, but the actual sales were low. Hu Zhibiao didn't care.
Hu Zhibiao placed himself in the Daqian's shoes and ordered the Daqian's top three volumes. But he didn't expect the Daqian to use the worst plan.
Yes, that's right. In Hu Zhibiao's view, the Daqian's response was the worst plan.
Since they wanted to take over the high-end market, they had to maintain the price, so that they could maintain profits.
If they wanted to take over the high-end market, they had to maintain the price at the same level, just a few dozen yuan more. But even if the Daqian's price fell, it was still more than 200 yuan more expensive than his own, which was equivalent to the monthly salary of many workers. So, what was the point? Customers will still vote with their feet. This way, the Daqian won't be able to take over the high-end market and won't be able to take over the low-end market. This was a stupid decision!
Hu Zhibiao sighed and felt that the Daqian was really stupid this time. He could sit back and relax.
Unfortunately, Hu Zhibiao's priority only lasted for less than a day. The next morning, when Hu Zhibiao was preparing for the next step of the development strategy in the company, he suddenly saw his new secretary holding a newspaper and knocking on his door.
"What's the matter?" Seeing the new secretary's beautiful face, Hu Zhibiao couldn't help but be intoxicated in his heart. My secretary is really beautiful. I heard that Jia Yapeng's wife is also a secretary. I …
"Director!" The secretary called softly. Hu Zhibiao suddenly woke up and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
"Didn't you tell me that I have to inform you as soon as I find any news related to the Daqian?" The secretary whispered, "A few people in our secretariat checked the major national and local newspapers that were released this morning and found that this news appeared in all the newspapers!"
"Oh! Let me see! " Hu Zhibiao's heart moved, and he immediately took the newspaper in his hand. The secretary had carefully marked the page number of the news, so that Hu Zhibiao could see the news at once.
"Breaking the Heavens and Earth, the Chinese break the myth of foreign high-tech monopoly!"
This title was very attractive, and Hu Zhibiao couldn't help but read it. He then realized that this news was about the Daqian VCD.
In this news, the author used a lot of words to describe the fact that Hua Xia was lagging behind in the high-tech field, especially in the computer and electronic technology industry. Hua Xia was lagging behind the rest of the world by more than ten years, which made people feel very discouraged.
After that, the author suddenly changed the topic and told everyone that there was a company that had broken the suppression of the electronic technology industry and had achieved the world's first achievement.
That was the Daqian VCD, which was produced by the Daqian Group. It was the world's first VCD, and it was the leading invention in the world. Before the Daqian VCD, there was no VCD in the world.
Before the Daqian VCD, the world used video recorders, but video recorders had a lot of shortcomings, such as bad picture quality, audio and video were out of sync, etc. However, the Daqian VCD successfully solved these shortcomings, and invented a big invention that changed the world, and created a new industry.
Anyway, in this article, the Daqian VCD was described as important as the United States' invention of the atomic bomb. It was the first shot that Hua Xia broke the monopoly of foreign technology, and at the same time, it also proved that Hua Xia people were not worse than foreigners, etc.
The standard of this article was extremely high. In any case, after Hu Zhibiao finished reading it, he felt a sense of honor and national pride bursting through him.
However, at the end of the article, there were a few paragraphs that made Hu Zhibiao very unhappy. The author criticized that after some companies saw the Daqian VCD, they immediately started to imitate it, and then they produced a lot of counterfeit VCD players. The quality was very bad, and it seriously damaged the image of domestic VCD players.
Although the article did not name which counterfeit companies, it was obviously talking about Hu Zhibiao's Aido VCD player.
After that, Hu Zhibiao read a few other newspapers, and he found that the news was similar. They were all praising the Daqian VCD player's quality, research, and innovation, and at the same time, criticizing the quality of other brands.
The most infuriating thing was that the author did not name names, and Hu Zhibiao could not even sue for Daqian slander. It was really infuriating.
"Old tricks! In front of the price, no matter how much you boast, it is useless! "In the end, Hu Zhibiao threw the newspaper aside and said while biting his lips.
The price was the final say!
