Chapter 288 Pingguo is in a hurry

As a purely domestic operating system, the Gonggong system can achieve such an achievement, and let the whole world see what Huaxia speed is.

And judging from the current actual user experience reviews, users are basically 99% very satisfied with the Gonggong system.

The interface is simple, the software responds quickly, most advertisements are free, and the battery control is done well. In the past, the battery power of the mobile phone can be used normally for one day, but now it can be used for two days.

Who wouldn't be tempted by such an operating system?

Of course, except for the reason that the mobile phone is stuck, those who want to change the mobile phone are excluded.

Since the release of the Gonggong system to the present, it has not been a long time compared with systems such as Android. However, relying on the powerful Internet of Everything and active adaptation technology, many manufacturers have cooperated with Kyushu Technology to expand the scope of business and increase the technical strength of their products.

This is actually a virtuous circle, stacking materials, competing for services and ecology, using high-quality products to win consumers’ money, rather than relying on publicity and advertising to maliciously discredit other companies to make money.

The former makes the industry flourish, while the latter makes the industry full of gunpowder and stench.

According to relevant information, there are currently 136 manufacturers in the partner list of Gonggong system, especially when the number of installed and activated users has soared recently, this partner list is also increasing crazily.

And in order to help domestic mobile phone manufacturers to go overseas, the Gonggong system has been updated to version 2.0, which supports more languages, and even the simultaneous translation function of software content.

Another round - the stick falls.

English subject users, we want.

Users from non-English-speaking countries, we also want to!

The cost-effectiveness of domestic manufacturers, combined with the strong attack of the Gonggong system, the sales of major mobile phone manufacturers such as Hanxing and Pingguo are almost visible to the naked eye—falling and falling.

In the face of this situation, Pingguo and Han Xing, in addition to taking out the old routine of reducing prices in installments, also began to spend large sums of money on publicity and distribution.

According to the latest report, Pingguo and Hanxing are honored to be among the top 15 listed companies in the world that spend the most on search advertising.

In July alone, Pingguo spent more than $300 million globally on search ads, the ads that appear in the results when users use a search engine to find something.

There are also business listings from other media, the implantation of film and television animation, and the linkage of popular products. These investment funds have reached almost 700 million US dollars in total.

But these are not enough, because the sequelae of Pingguo's advertising are too great.

no stock!

It is a good thing that consumers have a desire to buy when the advertisement is out, but once consumers enter the Pingguo store, they will either be told that there is no stock, or they will increase the price to go to the scalper to get the goods.

Pingguo paid such a large amount of advertising fees, but the ultimate beneficiary was the scalpers.

Although the short-term mobile phone sales have increased, these mobile phones have not been activated in the hands of scalpers. Pingguo cannot earn money from users using Pingguo mobile phone services, which is a kind of loss.

Moreover, according to the current news from Pingguo suppliers and parts manufacturers, the price of the order must be raised, otherwise it will not be done.

This annoyed Cook and the directors and capital behind Pingguo.

"How dare these yellow skins raise our prices in turn?"

"They must be punished! Cancel their future supply qualifications!"

"Kill chickens to warn monkeys, and then support Vietnamese manufacturers!"

But when the meeting was over, Pingguo's somewhat harsh words were met with disdain from the suppliers.

"Huh? Now Daxia's labor cost has also increased, so we have to increase the price."

"Can we cancel our supply qualification? Yes, after all, there are not many survivors. We will modify this production line to make other products. If your company wants this part in the future, please find another company."

As for Vietnam...

Pingguo's commissioners and executives investigated circles and circles in Vietnam and other countries, and finally returned disappointed.

The report that Cook read reads: “Vietnam and other Pan-Asian countries have imperfect industrial systems, and the quality of personnel varies, so they cannot replace Daxia suppliers. If we want to support local enterprises, we need to build new factories, build new production lines, Training employees will cost the company a lot of money and about two years of time."

Time is money, and it is impossible for Pingguo to wait two years for the production capacity to rise before releasing new models to compete for the market.

Pingguo was in a hurry.

Anxious like ants on a hot pan, he began to seek various solutions.

Cook contacted Google's executives, but due to the "sensibility" of Daxia's mobile phone manufacturers, Google was unwilling to take the initiative to give up its benefits to help Pingguo.

Of course, they still understand the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.

So Google dragged its feet on Pingguo: You are the main attack, and we are the support.

The implication is that if you are the most anxious, you will contribute first.

For members of Congress, Pingguo was the main force to throw money, and cooperated with the current leader to break the root of the high-end mobile phone chips in Daxia's mobile phone industry.

Not only cut off the lithography machine, but also persuade Qualcomm shareholders not to supply high-performance chips to Daxia mobile phone manufacturers.

The former is easy to do and is being done now with good results.

the latter?

That simply cannot be done.

If Qualcomm doesn't sell chips to mobile phone manufacturers in Daxia, who else can they sell them to? Pingguo has its own Pingguo chips, and Han Xing has its own Han Xing chips. If Qualcomm doesn’t make money from Daxia, is it going to make money from Africa?

Moreover, Qualcomm also holds part of the equity in companies such as rice, which is already a community of interests, so how to cut it?

Could it be that Pingguo paid for those shares?

Impossible, the first- and second-tier mobile phone manufacturers in Daxia are good cows that can make steady money every year. The higher the sales of mobile phones, the more Qualcomm will earn and the greater its market share.

This is almost a dead end.

Cook has been in a trance with anxiety recently.

what to do?

Damn big summer mobile phone manufacturers, can't they sell less?

I don't know how many people are waiting for Pingguo's counterattack.

But, how to fight back?

The market share of the Pingguo system is getting lower and lower, the supply chain system is in jeopardy, and the originally stable shipments have also been wiped out by Daxia scalpers.

The market value of trillions is like a blank number at this moment.

unless……

Cook thought a lot, Pingguo executives also discussed many times, and relevant experts also brainstormed.

In the end, after many compromises, Pingguo's top management decided to squeeze out the toothpaste to solve the problem.

supplier?

Since they ask for money, give it! The big deal is that the profit margin of Pingguo will be a little less this year.

Technical aspects?

Isn't Qualcomm's 5G baseband waiting to be sold? Then buy it!

Coupled with A14 Bionic bionic chip, 800 nit OLED screen, 1TB large storage space...

Isn't it just stacking?

For the sake of market share and the right to speak in the future, Pingguo will no longer be "Pingguo" this time.

PS: It is a commonplace to talk about the return of the manufacturing industry, but there is really no way. Those places in Vietnam that take over the lowest-end industries cannot produce good products... So education is a long-term plan, and education has long-term characteristics. It cannot improve the quality of the population overnight. of.
