Chapter 567 Price War, the Tang family is not afraid of anyone!
"Speaking of which, if we ever meet Solos again in the future, we'll definitely have to thank him. Without him, we wouldn't have the money to do this!"
Tang Yichen suddenly spoke with a smile.
This sentence made Tang Xionghua laugh: "Haha! That's true, but if he knew that we made our fortune thanks to him, and that this little money will be worth more than a trillion dollars in the future, do you think he would vomit blood?"
"It's not just vomiting blood, I'm afraid he might even die from anger!" Tang Yichen smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Twenty years later, Solos's net worth was more than 20 billion US dollars.
If he really knew how the Tang family made their fortune, and how they used the money they robbed from him and threw it into the Mi stock market, which would then turn into trillions of Mi gold.
Even the most open-minded person would be so upset that they would be sent away...
In the Internet winter, the websites that are doing the best in the world, and even seem to be unaffected, may be Xiongchen of the old Tang family and the literature website under Tang Yichen.
Because it is 100% controlled and fully invested by the Tang family, it is not affected by the stock market.
No matter how strong the wind and rain are outside, I will stand under the big umbrella and not a drop of rain will hit me.
Of course, this applies to Tang Yichen and his son.
Because Tang Yichen and his son are clear about the future world situation.
But from the outside, Tang, the richest man's Internet company, is now also a loss-making business.
However, this loss is only for the Tang family, not for the outside world. The only ones who might be affected are Xiongchen and even Wenxue.com, which cannot go public in the next two years.
But is this a big deal?
The Tang family supports these websites, spending hundreds of millions of dollars a year, which is just a drop in the bucket.
The 29th was the third day before the end of the Olympic Games, and also the third day before the official launch of the third generation of Huaxing and Bird mobile phones.
On this day, Tang Xionghua brought a gift home to Tang Yichen.
“This is really ugly!”
Looking at the thing in his hand, Tang Yichen couldn't help but complain.
It is more than three centimeters thick, more than eight centimeters wide, and thirteen or forty meters long.
The screen takes up one-third of the space, and the rest is occupied by buttons.
Yes, that’s right, Tang Yichen has a mobile phone in his hand.
Of course, this is not the third generation of Huaxing that is about to be launched, but the future fourth generation of Huaxing.
The biggest difference between this phone and the current third generation of Huaxing mobile phones is that the screen of this phone is color.
But it looked too big and too heavy. Holding it in his hand, Tang Yichen almost felt like he was back to using that small mobile phone five or six years ago.
Tang Xionghua smiled and said, "This is the first experimental product. I brought it back for you to see. We will naturally start researching and developing smaller components and improving the appearance later."
That’s right, the third generation of Huaxing has not yet been officially launched on the market, but now the third generation of Huaxing has been born.
However, this is still a defective product, and it only researches the general direction required for the fourth generation.
Color screen is definitely a groundbreaking thing.
After all, today's mobile phones are still black and white.
Tang Yichen took the phone, switching from his left hand to his right, playing with it for a while, then shook his head: "This thing really needs to be studied carefully. At least the weight needs to be reduced by half. In addition, the size and thickness also need to be reduced.
The most important thing is the appearance, it’s so ugly.”
Tang Xionghua didn't frown because of Tang Yichen's criticism. Instead, he said with a smile: "Why are you looking at these? I just want you to see if this color screen is OK. This is what's important!"
Tang Yichen said casually: "That's it, it's just a color screen, nothing special!"
"Forget it, just give it back to me. I shouldn't have given it to you!" Tang Xionghua snatched the phone from Tang Yichen in a bad mood.
Indeed, in Tang Yichen's eyes, this was nothing new, and it was even a bit unsightly.
A color screen with a resolution so low that it almost shows mosaics is no match for the dazzling smartphones of later generations that pursue all kinds of extremes.
But don’t forget, it was Tang Yichen who was reborn, and it was the first time that Tang Xionghua saw a color screen mobile phone.
"Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you. Currently, the number of people who have reserved mobile phones on our online website has exceeded three million, and the number of people who have paid deposits in advance has exceeded 800,000.
This launch is bound to be a success, but so far, Bird has been keeping it very secret, and the price of their phone is still unknown!"
The second generation of Huaxing mobile phone still combines online and offline.
But this time, Huaxing issued an announcement at the beginning of this month that the third generation of Huaxing will not adopt the offline sales model, but will be unified online.
After all, in terms of logistics and express delivery, except for the northwest region, we now have real coverage. In addition to the Tang family's independent storage center, except for the two regions in the northwest, the country can be delivered within three days, if not the next day. This has now been achieved.
In this case, why bother going offline to increase costs?
Huaxing’s profits are not big to begin with, so any more profit is better.
This pre-sale and deposit payment was naturally Tang Yichen's idea.
It can be regarded as a further promotion of the development of online banking.
"It's so popular!" Tang Yichen exclaimed after hearing his father's words.
This kind of situation has only happened in later generations, such as Lao Lei and Fruit who used hunger marketing, and Huawei who was labeled as patriotic.
Demand exceeds supply.
Yes!
China's production capacity is actually very large. For this launch, it has prepared a full 500,000 units.
But looking at the situation now, it seems like they are really being forced to engage in hunger marketing!
"I estimate that Bird's price will definitely not be more expensive than ours. I even estimate that it will probably be less than 3,500.
Even if you said 2,999, I wouldn't be surprised! "
"Uh...is he really that cruel?" Tang Xionghua was slightly stunned.
Two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine. If it is Huaxing, there will still be profit.
But Bird is not Huaxing.
Without an online gathering place like Lao Tangjia, although other e-commerce websites are available, the mainstream will still be offline.
In this case, after deducting the cost, the dealer, and the labor wages, etc., 2,999 yuan is enough. He may really only earn a small fortune...
Tang Yichen restrained his smile and said solemnly, "After all, he is a man who can create a legend. He will not lack courage. The current situation is very clear. The number of reservations on our official website is also clear at a glance.
Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that he would burn his boats under such great pressure."
"Yeah!" Tang Xionghua nodded, but then he smiled again.
"Who cares? Let's see. If he really has the courage, then I will really look up to him."
This is Tang Xionghua’s truest thought.
This is the only thought I have, because other things like pressure are nonsense.
The Tang family has grown to such a scale now that even if the mobile phone market is really conquered by others, Tang Xionghua will probably just frown.
What's more, the current mobile phone market is still dominated by the Tang family. Perhaps he really has the ability to snatch a piece of meat from the Tang family.
But so what?
The Old Tang family would still be the Old Tang family, and Huaxing would still be Huaxing. At worst, if he really did that, the Old Tang family would just respond directly.
When it comes to price wars, the Tang family has never been afraid of anyone.
