Vol 2 Chapter 1093: Tang Jun

The first thousand and ninety-three chapters

Tang Jun

No matter how lively there is in the United States and how enthusiastic the major American media are for Lin Feng and "google", Lin Feng flew to South Korea leisurely. Of course, if you say that you are at ease, that's also a pretense. After all, tonight, Wang Meng and others will lead a team to South Korea to save people. If that happens, it will be an event that shocks the world. If Lin Feng said he was not nervous, that would be a lie.

However, although Lin Feng was extremely nervous in his heart, he had to pretend to be relaxed on the bright side. Otherwise, if you show nervousness and you happen to be in South Korea, if this is detected by someone who is interested, the suspicion will be great and it will cause a lot of trouble.

By the way, I don't know how Meng Brothers will rescue Zhan Qixiong? Did you find out where Zhan Qixiong was detained? ——Lin Feng thought to himself. However, Wang Meng didn't tell him anything about this, and Lin Feng understood what Wang Meng meant. Only if he didn't tell Lin Feng, then Lin Feng would not have much to do with this matter. Otherwise, even if Wang Meng revealed a little bit of news to Lin Feng, the affairs with the enemy would be serious. Once Lin Feng got involved, it would be really troublesome.

Wang Meng and the others ran away. Anyway, their headquarters is in Africa. On this primitive continent, Wang Meng and others are not afraid of anyone. But Lin Feng is different. With such a big industry, it would be too uneconomical to run along with them. What's more, the wives and children of so many of their brothers also need someone to take care of. With the banner of Lin Feng, the many security personnel of the "Langya" security company can also feel at ease when performing their tasks.

"Boss, satellite phone! Tang Jun is calling." Lin Chiling said.

Lin Feng took the call.

"Boss, so far, including the total sales of physical stores and online sales, bundled with the "Baidu Earth" "Thousand Yuan" (taken from the "Thousand Miles of Marriage") mobile phones, and now only sold more than 1,300." Tang Jun. There was a slightly suppressed voice.

The mobile phone with the most powerful features, well-built, celebrities to help out, has been on the market one day, and the national sales volume is only more than 1,300, which is really shabby. This also doesn't matter that Tang Jun's voice is quite depressed and low.

Lin Feng was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that the sales of this "Thousand Yuan" mobile phone bundled with "Baidu Earth" would be so low. According to the original estimate, the sales volume of this music entertainment mobile phone bundled with "Baidu Earth" should be at least 1 million units in the country in the first month, which is about 30,000 units per day on average. As a result, only more than 1,300 copies were sold, which is naturally quite unsatisfactory.

"Do you know the reason?" Lin Feng asked.

Tang Jun smacked his lips.

"Boss, it's not the media. After saying that we have bundled'Baidu Earth', since we can check each other's location and say that it will leak the owner's secrets, many consumers who were planning to buy originally chose to hold money and wait and see. I want to see if other people will leak the memorized information after using it." Tang Jun said helplessly.

Originally, this latest mobile phone of the Phantom, bundled with "Baidu Earth", has always been one of the most anticipated mobile phones by consumers. Unexpectedly, because of many media reviews, many consumers who want to buy this phone hesitate. , As a result, one after another kept the currency on the sidelines, wanting to see if there will be any leakage of secrets after other people have used it. As a result, the sales of mobile phones were naturally unsalable after such a wait-and-see approach, which eventually led to the tragic situation that the sales volume on the first day of listing was only a mere 1,300 units.

"Boss, our production line is still in continuous production. We can produce about 100,000 units per day. We currently have 2 million units in stock. Do we reduce production?" Tang Jun asked in a deliberate manner.

The current mobile phone sales are so dismal. If the mobile phone is still produced at full capacity every day, once the phone cannot sell the expected sales, it will soon cause a large inventory backlog, bring serious financial pressure to the company, and may even affect the company's operation. Therefore, Tang Jun had to call Lin Feng for advice.

Production reduction? ——Lin Feng was stunned, but he didn't expect Tang Jun to actually want to reduce production.

"President Tang, this is not your usual style!" Lin Feng teased.

Tang Jun's consistent performance for Lin Feng was never to admit defeat, and to go up in the face of difficulties. He was the kind of person who hit the south wall without looking back, and would use his head to break the south wall. But unexpectedly, this was only one day, and Tang Jun actually retreated a bit.

Tang Jun was teased by Lin Feng and shook his head again and again. He didn't know what to say about their boss, and he was still in the mood to joke at this time. You know, if there is no reduction in production and no increase in sales, the daily production of 100,000 mobile phones, excluding employee wages, utility bills, taxes, machine depreciation and other miscellaneous expenses, is just this bundled "Baidu Earth". The average cost of mobile phone hardware in China is 800 yuan per unit and 100,000 units, and the hardware investment per day is 80 million yuan. Counting all other expenses, the company invests hundreds of millions of dollars a day.

With an investment of hundreds of millions of renminbi every day, in one month, it is an astonishing figure of 3 billion renminbi. Thinking of this number, Tang Jun felt a short breath, as if out of breath. This amount of funds is so huge that Tang Jun has been awake at night during this period of time, and has been anxious about the sales of mobile phones. Nowadays, the sales of mobile phones are extremely bleak, which naturally makes Tang Jun feel as if he is sitting in a volcanic crater. His whole body is hot and may burn at any time.

As a result, he was about to die here, and his boss, Lin Feng, was actually so relaxed. You know, the company belongs to Lin Feng. As a result, Lin Feng is not in a hurry. He is about to die in a hurry. This is really why the emperor is not in a hurry.

"Boss, this is not a game. The production cost is not high (compared to the manufacturing industry), and the capital required is small. Now the company ('Phantom Technology') has only 500 million US dollars in account funds, although it can guarantee the company for three months. The company’s full-load production (usually the company finds downstream manufacturers to supply, the payment will be delayed for 1-3 months), but once the production of mobile phones is unsalable and cannot be sold, it will be fatal to the company.” Tang Jun is afraid of Lin Feng. I have been in the "second world" for too long, and a kind of inertial thinking arises, so I quickly explain.

"Hehe, Mr. Tang, don’t worry. I understand what you said. Indeed, if the mobile phone is unsalable, the production of 100,000 units per day is indeed a capital investment of more than 300 million US dollars a month. If it continues for half a year, I am afraid the company will only It can go bankrupt. However, we will soon sell the mobile phone. Do you think it is?" Lin Feng said lightly.

auzw.com speechless! Tang Jun was completely speechless. If the mobile phone is easy to sell, he will not worry about calling Lin Feng at this time to ask for a plan to reduce production after a day. According to Tang Jun, it is to temporarily guarantee the daily production of 10,000 units, and resume production after the sales of mobile phones start to increase. In this way, even if this mobile phone bundled with "Baidu Earth" does not sell well, it will not be a fatal blow to the company.

It's a pity that his boss seems a little ignorant.

"Haha, Mr. Tang, you must feel that I am a bit too optimistic and too blind now, right?" Lin Feng said.

Tang Jun really thinks like this at the moment, but if you think about these words in your heart, you can say it, but that's not okay.

"President Tang, don't worry. This "Thousand Yuan" mobile phone bundled with "Baidu Earth" will definitely become the highest-selling mobile phone this year!" Lin Feng said confidently.

Become the highest-selling mobile phone this year? ——Tang Jun was a bit taken aback, he really doubted whether he had heard it wrong. You must know that "Thousand Yuan" only sold more than 1,300 units on the first day of its launch, and actually wants to become the highest-selling mobile phone at the end of the year. This seems a bit like a dream to Tang Jun. If this is true, it will undoubtedly break the record of mobile phone sales. From the sales of more than 1,000 units on the market to the number one at the end of the year (the number one mobile phone at the end of last year was Nokia, which sold a total of 175 million units, of which the most popular 6600 sold more than 33 million units), this is definitely another sales myth. .

You know, in the same period last year, Nokia carefully promoted the "n-gage", the initial research and development funds were as high as tens of millions of dollars, and then the "n-gage" was escorted with a publicity fee of 100 million US dollars. As a result, the first week of sales , The world has not added more than 10,000 units. In the end, this "n-gage", which invested hundreds of millions of dollars, encountered Nokia's worst Waterloo.

With Nokia's strength, it is impossible to redeem the sales of a mobile phone. My own company is much smaller than Nokia. It is even more difficult to redeem it. This is why Tang Jun was so worried in just one day. With Nokia’s lessons learned, Tang Jun has to beware that the company is not as good as Nokia's footsteps. You know, Nokia has a big business, it is losing money, and its various models of mobile phones are numerous, one of which has poor sales, and there are other models to fill it. And my company is not as powerful as Nokia. At present, the company is still in the early stage of development and can only take the boutique route, and it is impossible to spread the net like Nokia. Therefore, a loss of a mobile phone is a big blow to the company.

Of course, in terms of Lin Feng's financial resources, he also suffered a loss. But Tang Jun didn't understand why Lin Feng was so confident and didn't want to reduce production at all. After all, this production is an investment of hundreds of millions of yuan every day. Although Lin Feng has money, he is not so much that he does not use money as money.

"Hehe, Mr. Tang, we need to have enough confidence in our mobile phone. You said, this "Thousand Yuan" mobile phone can listen to mp3, watch movies, and play games. At the same time, it is bundled with "Baidu Earth". Why can't there be a big fire if you check the location of the other party?" Lin Feng asked.

Tang Jun could not answer Lin Feng's question. Because in his mind, this "Thousand Yuan" mobile phone should also be a hot mobile phone, but the market is ruthless. On the first day, the national sales volume was only more than 1,300, which was really bleak. This is because the company took advantage of Lin Feng's absolute control in the online media, and started advertising one month in advance, and actually only sold such a small amount. Tang Jun really has no confidence. This "Thousand Yuan" mobile phone completely made him lose his confidence.

Before thinking about it, Tang Jun was still arrogant and became the first mobile phone with a global sales volume of over 10 million. As a result, it seems that this will be a big joke!

Although Tang Jun did not speak, Lin Feng heard from Tang Jun's silence and breathing that Tang Jun was very depressed at the moment.

"Mr Tang, believe me, this'Thousand Yuan' mobile phone will definitely achieve better sales than we expected!" Lin Feng said confidently.

"Boss, can you tell me the reason why you are so confident?" Tang Jun really didn't understand where Lin Feng was so confident.

"Hehe, it's very simple. The sales of this'Thousand Yuan' mobile phone is not good. The biggest reason is the misleading of the media and the hesitation of consumers about their own secrets. They do not want their secrets to be exposed to the Internet. People know. Therefore, we only need to smash these two points!" Lin Feng said.

Tang Jun nodded. These two points are indeed an important reason for the current dismal sales of "Thousand Yuan" mobile phones, but how to solve them? Tang Jun had also thought about it, but he was puzzled and couldn't think of any plan to deal with it.

Lin Feng smiled.

"President Tang, it's very simple, watch the advertisement!" Lin Feng said.

advertising! ——Tang Jun is a bit speechless. He didn't expect that Lin Feng's so-called assassin was actually an advertisement. Although there is no shortage of products or companies that have been brought back to life through advertising in history. But in Tang Jun's view, this is one in ten million chances. As a rational professional manager, it is impossible to put the company's future on advertising, which is extremely vague. After all, Nokia’s lessons learned from "n-gage", Nokia has also spent hundreds of millions of dollars in advertising, isn't it ineffective. Finally, "n-gage" became a shame for Nokia in 2003.

Now when Tang Jun mentioned something, he first thought of Nokia's "n-gage". No way, the sales of "n-gage" are too bleak. Almost global mobile phone manufacturers have avoided becoming the second goal of "n-gage". .

"Mr Tang, believe me, this advertisement will definitely save'Thousand Fate'." Lin Feng said with a smile.

Tang Jun frowned. I also wanted to persuade Lin Feng to reduce production. But seeing Lin Feng so persistent and so confident, Tang Jun thought about it, that's all. After all, it is only the first day, and Tang Jun has seen this advertisement, which is indeed very attractive. Although Tang Jun was originally skeptical about whether the three commercials filmed this time could create miracles, it does not mean that he could not try it.

If he can really create a miracle, Tang Jun is willing to admit that he was wrong.

"Okay, Mr. Tang, don't worry, go back to rest, sleep, and prepare to watch the advertisement at night! Tomorrow you will tell me the reaction of the advertisement." Lin Feng finished speaking and hung up the phone.

Regarding this advertisement, Lin Feng is quite confident.
