#19 - Section: Flagship

"Why, are you sure the flagship phone's configuration will be higher than Hongmeng S1?"

"Although I don't know its configuration, I'm sure it will definitely be higher, better, and more expensive than Huaxing Hongmeng S1."

"Then why are you still recommending me to buy Hongmeng S1? Do you think I'm stupid?"

"I don't think you're brain-damaged, I just... I just think you probably can't afford it."

"I'm so poor now that I only have money left. I'm just looking at which one is better and more expensive."

"Sorry, I've offended you again."

A heart-stabbing blow failed to dissuade a user wavering between Hongmeng S1 and the flagship phone.

But it also enlightened more users. A flagship, that's the command ship of a fleet. And the command ship is always the one with the strongest firepower and the highest level. Compared like this, isn't the flagship phone the Huaxing product with the highest configuration and strongest firepower?

Soon, users deciphered the meaning of 'flagship phone'.

Compared to the belated realization of netizens, Huaxing's competitors reacted the fastest.

Yanjing, Xiaomi Corporation.

"President Lei, it's basically certain that Huaxing has developed a model with top-notch performance. The phone model name is not clear yet."

Although this mysterious flagship phone was not revealed to the outside world during the research and development process, the announcement of the press conference is equivalent to making it public. As long as you inquire, it is not difficult to find out that this is a high-configuration luxury model.

Of course, what they know is limited to this. More details, such as specific configurations, cannot be found out. A trace of appreciation flashed in Lei Jun's eyes.

"It seems that no one in the domestic mobile phone industry can threaten Huaxing's position for a long time. It has already gained a firm foothold in the mid-range models, and we have just entered the market."

"While we are competing for users in the mid-to-low-end market, it has already jumped out of this field and entered the high-end field, and invented the concept of flagship phone."

Although he has been working hard in the business world for decades, Lei Jun couldn't help but admire him.

"Although Lu Haifeng is young, his vision is farther than ours. With such a long-term vision, he has obviously been planning for it for a long time."

"President Lei, should we also start the flagship phone plan?"

The secretary thought for a while and asked Lei Jun. Hearing this, Lei Jun rejected it without thinking.

"We will not touch the flagship phone for the time being, at least not in this field for the next two years."

The secretary asked curiously: "President Lei, why?"

She felt that the flagship phone has very high configurations in all aspects, and the price of this model will inevitably be very high, which also means very high profits.

Lei Jun said: "Since you have thought of making a flagship phone, do you think that Owei Blue and others can't think of it?"

"It's right for everyone to follow in Huaxing's footsteps. Huaxing has succeeded, and following its footsteps is unlikely to suffer losses."

"But don't forget that Huaxing, as the first person to eat crabs, will definitely eat the biggest piece of cake wherever it goes. The remaining latecomers can only do their best to grab the remaining cake."

"Our Xiaomi will not wade into this muddy water. Let them fight for it. We will only do what we should do."

The secretary asked: "President Lei, what do you mean by what we should do?"

Lei Jun replied: "Cost performance."

If Lu Haifeng heard Lei Jun's words at this time, he would probably give him a thumbs up immediately and give him a big compliment.

Lei Jun is worthy of being a person who has risen from an ordinary programmer to the top of the working emperor. Lei Jun's words pointed out the correct way for a mobile phone company to open up in this situation.

The operator is about to get a 4G license, and the smart phone market will be hot at that time, with countless capital entering the market. Although the scene will be lively, it will also appear chaotic, especially with the successful existence of Huaxing, countless capital will blindly follow Huaxing's rhythm.

How to divide such a big cake?

Most entrants do not have a clear understanding.

However, Lei Jun thought of it. Instead of attacking everywhere, it is better to stick to one place and do what you are best at. Rooted in the field of cost performance, aiming at the largest mid-to-low-end user market.

This simple, seemingly stubborn choice also happens to touch on the way to divide the big cake of the smart phone market, which is market segmentation.

Lei Jun's words made the secretary unable to understand for a while, but she could only let her digest it slowly.

… … … …

And time, in the blink of an eye, has come to September 26. Lu Haifeng found a science and technology museum in Piaocheng, arranged it, and held a live press conference. According to the habit of releasing Huaxing Hongmeng S1 smart phones, he will synchronize the live broadcast.

Everything was ready, and Lu Haifeng slightly tidied up with the help of Xiao Ai.

Striding onto the stage, the lights suddenly fell on him. He stood alone in front of thousands of people, with a smile on his face: "Thank you for coming to our Huaxing Smart Phone Press Conference. Today I am here, and I hope to bring a gluttonous feast to the audience and the audience on the Internet."

"A gluttonous feast that will definitely make everyone feel that it is worth the trip."

"A gluttonous feast that is amazing enough with Huaxing smart phones."

The scene instantly burst into a surging roar, and the live broadcast room was even more flooded with various barrages. It seemed that this was a great moment, enough to make countless people's hearts surge.

"Finally waited for this day."

"Haha, what kind of surprise will Huaxing smart phones bring this time?"

"Looking forward to it, looking forward to it, release it quickly."

… … … …

At the beginning of the show, Lu Haifeng was just a short, bold statement, and the person in charge of the live broadcast room was dumbfounded.

Because the number of online users directly reached 2 million, which is terrible.

And among these 2 million, there are not only a large number of netizens, but also countless people in the same industry, and some people who aspire to make mobile phones are also staring at it, looking forward to Huaxing smart phones.

At the same time, there are many people watching abroad who stay up late, such as Apple's Jobs, Samsung's Xingcai, and Google's Smith, all watching the Huaxing Smart Phone Press Conference.

Lu Haifeng continued: "This is the second live press conference held by Huaxing. Welcome everyone to the Huaxing Press Conference."

"In fact, only one year has passed since the last press conference."

"Although the interval is not long, standing here again, to put it sentimentally, it gives me a feeling of being in another world."

"Before the last press conference, Huaxing was still an unknown small company. It had just changed its career and entered the mobile phone industry, and it was not favored by anyone."

"Now, before this press conference, Huaxing Hongmeng smart phones have sold a total of 15 million units."

"It only took one year to go from zero to tens of millions of units."

"I say without any pride, this is a very dazzling achievement."
