"Boss Yang, you're amazing. It's all thanks to you this time."
"Yeah, yeah. If it wasn't for Boss Yang, we wouldn't have been able to do anything to Huanyu Technologies."
"I heard that they produced more than a million phones in the first batch. Now, they don't even dare to market. This is enough for them to lose money."
It was hard to survive in the hardware industry.
It wasn't like the Internet industry or the software industry.
Sometimes, the Internet industry and the software industry didn't need to cost anything.
All you need to do is to write a few software and programs.
If this program is accidentally pushed out, you will be able to get up.
That was how Penguin got started. Huanyu Technologies got started too.
Back then, Qiu Bojun also wrote WPS alone. That was how Jinshan got started.
In the beginning, they didn't need to invest too much money.
But the hardware industry was different.
The hardware industry had a higher threshold than other industries. Other than the technology, the capital chain was also an important reason.
Most of the time, you had to pay for the phones you produced, the research and development costs, and everything else out of your own pocket.
Of course, it was fine to pay out of your own pocket as long as the products were sold.
But even if the products were sold, getting the money back was also a problem.
Everything mentioned above was under the condition that everything went smoothly.
But what if it didn't?
Once your products couldn't be sold, all your previous investments would go down the drain.
This wasn't just the cost of losing those products, but also the cost of the entire production line. It was a huge expense.
This was also the reason why Huanyu Technologies didn't dare to make a comeback after Lenovo, Ningbo, and a series of domestic low-end phones. It wasn't that they didn't dare, but that they didn't have the strength to do so. Which company had so much money to do it again? Not to mention them, even Nokia didn't dare to do it.
But this time, Huanyu Technologies had a taste of their previous pain.
Now you know how it feels to not be able to sell your phones.
Now you know how it feels to have your entire production line destroyed.
Isn't it very satisfying?
Just thinking about it made the group of cell phone manufacturers feel extremely comfortable.
This was a kind of satisfaction that came from getting revenge.
They knew that Huanyu Technologies' loss this time was even greater than theirs.
After all, they were competing with low-end computers before, but this time, they were competing with mid-range computers.
Whether it was the components or the entire production line, a mid-end machine could not be compared to a low-end machine.
The low-end market had been destroyed. Although the losses were heavy, they could still grit their teeth and survive.
However, if a mid-range computer died before it was even released, Huanyu Technologies would suffer a huge blow even if it didn't die.
"Everyone, you're too kind. If we didn't work together, we wouldn't have been able to defeat Huanyu Technologies. However, we cannot let our guard down completely for the time being. Huanyu Technologies has a lot of tricks up their sleeves. We still have to be careful. "
Yang Yuanqing reminded everyone with a smile.
Today's celebration banquet was the most relaxing he had been in a while.
"Don't worry, we know about this. We're preparing to launch a new product soon."
"Haha, us too."
"I have the same idea."
"That can't be. Everyone is launching a new product together. That's thinking too highly of Huanyu Technologies."
"You can't say that. Huanyu Technologies has a lot of tricks up their sleeves. If we don't kill them, they'll come back again. Didn't Boss Yang say that we can't let our guard down now? "
"That's true, but if we launch so many new products at once, we'll be beating ourselves up."
"Don't worry. The domestic mobile phone market is really huge. The annual growth rate is above 30%. Although we have competition, all mobile phone manufacturers can benefit from such a huge market. Moreover, even if we compete, it's between us. It has nothing to do with Huanyu Technologies. "
Yang Yuanqing and the others looked at each other and smiled. There was no need to say anything else.
They hated Huanyu Technologies to the core.
This was not to say that they were unhappy that Huanyu Technologies had entered the mobile phone industry.
The mobile phone industry was so big. Everyone could enter based on their own abilities.
However, if they entered, then so be it. Everyone had to cultivate their own target customers. Even if there was competition, no company could monopolize the market. Waveguide did not have this ability. Lenovo did not have this ability. Similarly, Nokia did not have this ability.
However, Huanyu Technologies had it all.
The moment they came out, they were going to kill them all.
First, they slashed prices.
You would think that this price was already very low. They had even lower prices.
You would think that this was the lowest price. No, there was no lowest price in this world. There was only lower prices.
They had even made phones that cost 99 yuan. Who would dare to compete with them?
However, just as they were celebrating and drinking, Huanyu Technologies updated the news on Huanyu Gateway.
[Congratulations to Huanyu for exceeding one million mobile phone shipments.]
This news had just appeared for a few minutes when the CEOs of major mobile phone manufacturers received calls.
"Boss Yang, Huanyu Technologies has released news. Their Huanyu mobile phone shipments have reached one million."
"Is today April Fools' Day?"
"No."
"You're not talking nonsense. Huanyu Technologies even canceled their new product launch. How could they have any shipments?"
Yang Yuanqing lectured his assistant over the phone.
The assistant said in an aggrieved tone, "Boss Yang, this is posted on Huanyu Gateway. There's even a red and bold notification. It doesn't seem fake."
"It's not fake?"
Yang Yuanqing was a little confused.
What was this and what?
Didn't Huanyu Technologies cancel their press release?
Didn't some small mobile phone stores say that Huanyu Technologies did not supply them with goods?
If that was the case, then where did this one million mobile phone shipments come from?
Yang Yuanqing took out his phone and logged onto Huanyu Gateway.
Although it was not as fast to surf the web on a mobile phone as compared to the smartphone era, most mobile websites were just words. There were no pictures or videos, so it did not take up much data and memory. It was more convenient to browse the news on a mobile phone.
Sure enough, Huanyu Gateway clearly showed that Huanyu's mobile phone shipments had exceeded one million units.
"Everyone, did you see the news posted on Huanyu Gateway?"
Holding the phone, Yang Yuanqing's expression was a little strange.
"Yes."
Everyone nodded.
They had also received the news just now.
However, like Yang Yuanqing, they were all confused.
"Boss Yang, where did Huanyu Technologies get the goods?"
"I want to know too."
"That's impossible. I went to the market to check. There's not a single Huanyu mobile phone in the large mobile phone stores."
"Not only the large mobile phone stores, but also the small mobile phone stores."
"Is this a scam?"
Everyone was extremely confused.
However, when they saw the headlines on their phones, they felt that it was impossible.
If Huanyu Technologies wanted to fake it, it was impossible for them to fake it like this.
If they put it on the headlines of the portal, there would be pictures and evidence.
Even if they wanted to scam people, they could find a few unscrupulous media outlets to do it.
They couldn't possibly use their own official website, and Huanyu Gateway, one of the four major portals in the country, as a joke.
"There must be something wrong here."
Yang Yuanqing's face was gloomy.
In his heart, he had a bad feeling.
However, even so, Yang Yuanqing couldn't understand.
It was true that the new product launch was canceled.
It was also true that the top ten mobile phone chain stores refused to sell Huanyu mobile phones.
It was also true that Huanyu Technologies suspended the supply of small mobile phone stores.
Then, there was a problem.
How the f * ck did this one million unit shipment come about?
Moreover, this quantity was really too big.
If you said 100,000 units, they could more or less believe it.
But if you said one million units, it had only been a few days.
From the time Huanyu Technologies announced that they were going to launch a mid-range mobile phone until now, they had shipped one million units in less than a week?
Wasn't this just a joke?
However, when they saw the news, they felt that Huanyu Technologies couldn't have made such a low-level mistake.
"Investigate."
"Everyone, use your own channels. We must find out what's going on."
The representatives of the mobile phone manufacturers were no longer in the mood to celebrate.
If Huanyu's mobile phones had really shipped one million units, it was an extremely terrifying signal.
Immediately after, the heads of the major mobile phone manufacturers used their own connections and resources to find out who Huanyu Technology's one million mobile phones had been sold to.
It had to be said that the capabilities of these mobile phone manufacturers were terrifying.
Under their joint investigation, there was almost nothing in the industry that they couldn't find out.
They searched.
Finally, they found the answer.
First, Huanyu Technologies hadn't faked it. They had indeed shipped one million units.
Second, there was only one person who had shipped the units to: China Mobile.
