"Why are you willing to give your waist a round key?"
After Wei Qinghuan gave his brother a "kill", he asked curiously, "You didn't dodge? Then you lost blood."
Wei Qingfan curled his lips, took away a drop of blood, and then explained: "The competition is too fierce. If we don't add some selling points, when Xiaomi 3 is released in the second half of the year, the price of Xiaomi 2S will be reduced, and the standard version of Linjiang Xian 2 will not be sold.
…”
He was telling the truth. This time the waist button was lowered, it was really forced by Xiaomi.
Under normal circumstances, Guci Mobile can easily suppress Xiaomi by virtue of its scale advantage, and can win the war with product strength and price.
However, because Wei Qingfan refused to give up his shares, the major capitals were unable to share the pie, so they all approached Xiaomi, so that Xiaomi could still obtain a large amount of financing without achieving its original historical success.
The confidence to fight a price war.
At the same time, due to the matter of self-developed processors, Qualcomm consciously wanted to support Xiaomi to check and balance Gushi, which to a certain extent offset the scale advantage of Gushi.
Historically, Xiaomi 2S was released in April, and Xiaomi 3 was released four months later. Lei Jun directly reduced the 32G version of Xiaomi 2S from 2299 yuan to 1799 yuan.
It was this move that forced Meizu MX2, which had just received a price reduction of 200 yuan in July, to have another emergency price reduction that night, from 2,499 yuan (16G version) to 1,699 yuan.
At the same time, it also caused Huang Zhang, who had hundreds of thousands of units in stock, to completely break his defense. He blasted Lei Jun and Xiaomi in the Meizu forum, which caused Lei Jun to respond directly for the first time. Huang Zhang quickly found an intermediary to apologize before the battle.
, deleting the post ended the incident, which was very embarrassing.
Today, Xiaomi is on the offensive side. As long as its financial reserves and supply chain allow it, it will definitely repeat its old tricks and continue to cut prices.
This is very effective in impacting sales, but it will hurt the brand image. Xiaomi doesn't care, but Wei Qingfan does.
Linjiangxian 2 cannot follow the price reduction, let alone be forced to reduce the price, so it must have different selling points.
There are only two choices, either waist round buttons or a 4.7-inch 1080p screen - the latter will stab Big Brother in the back, and it will stab the standard version of Jiangjin Wine 2 and the standard version of Birdsong Stream 2, so it was rejected.
.
In this case, we can only lower the waist round key.
This is not enough to offset Xiaomi's price advantage. The small dot design of Meizu MX2 is also a generation classic, but it is still beaten by Xiaomi 2 and Xiaomi 2S.
However, by August, the life cycle of Linjiangxian 2 will be nearly half-way through, so we can take the initiative to reduce the price before the Mi 3 launch conference.
——It’s the same price reduction, but active price reduction and forced price reduction are completely different.
The price reduction does not need to be too large. By that time, the autumn press conference of Jiangjinjiu 3 will also begin. The Luoshen system ecology has initially taken shape. With the waist round key, Luoshen system and brand advantages, it will be able to compete with Xiaomi's price advantage.
beated.
The online market will inevitably be damaged, but the overall impact will not be great.
As for the Collector’s Edition of Linjiang Xian 2, its competitor is not Xiaomi 3 at all. Although it is also equipped with Snapdragon 800, the Collector’s Edition of Linjiang Xian 2 is the same as the Collector’s Edition of Sauvignon Blanc. It is mainly filled with wine and the price of Birdsong Stream.
Market gap after further gains.
Competition with Xiaomi 3 and Meizu MX3 is a secondary consideration. It is more about building and improving its own product lineup.
And after competing products are released, prices can be appropriately reduced to increase competitiveness.
The prices of Sauvignon Blanc and Linjiang Xian are the same, they are 1999, 2299 for the standard version (maximum storage of 32G), and 2499, 2799, 3199 for the collector's edition (maximum storage of 64G). The maximum price of the product is exactly the same as that of Jiangjin Wine and Bird Song Stream.
The starting sales versions overlap, completing the coverage.
Waiting for the release of Jinjiu 3 this fall, with further price increases based on fingerprint recognition, the price range will be further widened.
"That is to say, even if it is the standard version of Linjiangxian 2, its performance is stronger than Jiangjinjiu 3, right?"
After reading the performance introduction, Wei Qinghuan turned around and asked, "Then why are there so many people buying Jiangjin Wine and Birdsong Stream?"
Wei Qingfan smiled and said: "I let you choose, which one do you choose?"
"Birds singing in the stream."
Wei Qinghuan didn't hesitate at all, "I don't want such strong performance. I can only play cutting fruit. It's more cost-effective to take pictures, and it looks better..."
"Isn't that okay?"
“What about Sauvignon Blanc?”
"Sauvignon Blanc takes better photos, and it has a beauty algorithm."
"...profiteer!"
After playing for a while and not watching the press conference, Wang Shuhua looked at the time and said, "Is it time to go?"
Wei Qingfan also looked at the time and said, "It's almost time... Then Wan Yun and I will go?"
Li Wanyi said: "Wanyun, please call Chengan again and see if he can go."
"good."
Li Wanyun dialed Li Chengan's number and quickly hung up, saying, "He said he was still working part-time and wouldn't go. I'll call him after dinner in the evening."
"Then you go."
Li Wanyi nodded and told Wei Qingfan: "Slow down."
"rest assured."
Mother Li came alone and didn't dare to take a plane. She had never taken one before, so she chose the sleeper train to come here. She was about to arrive at the station.
"Brother-in-law, I have something to tell you."
The driver came to pick him up. Wei Qingfan originally wanted to sit in the passenger seat. When he got in the car, Li Wanyun seemed to notice it and spoke first. He had no choice but to sit down in the back seat with his sister-in-law and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?
"
"Brother-in-law, don't be angry."
Li Wanyun glanced at him, "Cheng'an reacted so strongly mainly because he admired you too much before and couldn't accept it for a while, and I can feel that his attitude towards you is no longer so resistant now."
"Don't worry, I understand."
Wei Qingfan smiled, "It's mainly because my previous image was so glorious and majestic. Besides, he didn't do anything. Don't think too much about it."
"Um."
Li Wanyun looked at his expression carefully, felt relieved, nodded and said: "Cheng'an is a bit spoiled, but with my sister watching, it's not that bad. The living expenses my parents give him now, he
Everything was saved, and he didn’t spend a penny. He made money through part-time work..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wei Qingfan smiled and said: "I heard Wanwan say that Cheng'an seems to be in love?"
"Seems to be."
Li Wanyun nodded, "But I asked him, but he refused to tell me... Anyway, it feels like we are in love."
Wei Qingfan smiled and said: "Then does he still have time to work part-time? Is it enough to make money by himself?"
"If it's not enough, he should say it."
Li Wanyun was obviously a little worried about her younger brother, "Although he didn't spend the money, the card is still in his hand. He will use it when he is really short of money."
"I originally thought that Chengan could persist for a month or two at most. It's been half a year, and he's quite perseverant."
"He is actually quite stubborn..."
The two chatted all the way to the train station and waited for a while. It was not convenient for Wei Qingfan to show up, so he asked Liang Zhiyong to accompany his sister-in-law to pick up someone. He waited in the car and secretly moved to the passenger seat.
"mom!"
After waiting for a while, Mother Li came over with a smile on her face. Wei Qingfan quickly got out of the car to say hello and went to help carry things, so that Mr. Tai Shui would not feel that he was not considerate when he came for the first time.
"No, no, no, you sit down, you go sit in the car."
Mother Li had already known the situation from her two daughters in advance and quickly asked him to go back.
However, this brief appearance still attracted the attention of other people in the parking lot, and soon someone next to them was heard talking: "Wei Qingfan?"
"ah?"
"Really!"
"Hello, Mr. Wei!"
When people came over to say hello, Wei Qingfan was used to it, so he said a few polite words, got in the car and left.
"Why do I feel like a star..."
Mother Li felt very strange. She felt that her son-in-law was like a TV star, and actually someone actually knew him.
"That's right, there are people who specially bought tickets to see him..."
Li Wanyun muttered softly, and then explained to her mother the reason why her brother did not come. Li's mother knew that her son was working part-time. Li Chengan's reason was to "experience life". She felt sorry for her son, but Li Wanyi persuaded her and did not stop him.
She dotes on her son, but she is not stupid, especially after being told by her daughter a few years ago, she clearly knows that she and her husband cannot take care of their son for the rest of his life, and his sister and brother-in-law are more worthy of reliance.
Nowadays, Wei Qingfan's career is booming and she is already the richest man in the mainland. Naturally, she is not willing to offend her son-in-law easily, and she will never have trouble with her eldest daughter again.
Otherwise, no matter how mentally prepared she was, and no matter how likable Li Miaoyu was, she would not be able to chat and laugh with Li Miaoyu so quickly.
In the adult world, real life, even blood relatives, there are not so many fairy tales.
Mother Li's room has been packed up and she is living next door to Wang Shuhua, which is the room where Li Wanyun originally lived. She will not stay there for long. She will take care of her daughter and will go back after a while.
When they arrived at home, Wang Shuhua was already preparing meals, and Wei Qingchan and Jiang Qinghuai were also helping. Mother Li said she wanted to help during the conversation, but was stopped, so she asked Li Wanyun to help.
Li Chengan arrived relatively late. After entering, he basically only talked to his mother, sister and Wang Shuhua. Whatever others said, he basically nodded or said "hmm" and left directly after finishing the meal without being allowed to send anything away.
"It's a bit more steady."
After dinner, I walked with Li Wanyi. After two laps, Wei Qingchan, Wei Qinghuan, and Jiang Qinghuai left. The others returned upstairs. Mother Li talked to her daughter and relatives. When talking about her son, she said with some emotion, "That's it...
...Why do I look so thin..."
"I fall in love all day long, and miss each other bitterly."
Li Wanyun interrupted with a smile, "Mom, you don't know yet, Cheng'an is in love."
…
After talking about the conversation, they took showers one after another. Wei Qingfan was originally going to accompany Li Wanyi. After talking about the conversation, he was about to go to bed. Li Wanyi said softly: "I have nothing to do here. You can go and accompany Miaomiao."
Wei Qingfan wanted to speak, so she said softly: "My mother is here, and Wan Yun is also here. Mom has been leaning towards me during this time. I'm afraid Miaomiao will feel isolated, so you go and stay with her."
"Fine."
Wei Qingfan was not worried that Li Miaoyu would really think this way, but he also felt that it was necessary to accompany her and said: "Then I will call mom and ask her to accompany you."
Li Wanyi said: "Call your mother. My mother is with Wan Yun, so don't call her."
"OK."
Wei Qingfan understood what she meant and was afraid that his mother-in-law would feel uncomfortable knowing that he had gone to Li Miaoyu's place, so he went to tell his mother and asked her to accompany Li Wanyi.
With her childbirth coming soon, Li Wanyi did not dare to lack anyone around her.
He came to Li Miaoyu's room. Xiao Nizi was chatting with Xie Yao. When she saw him coming, she blinked her eyes strangely and asked, "Why are you here with me if you don't want to accompany the bad woman? I don't want to have a baby."
Wei Qingfan came over to hug her and said with a smile: "Wanwan asked me to come over and accompany you."
"So much to think about."
Li Miaoyu understood it all at once, pursed her lips and muttered, "I'm about to have a baby, and yet I still worry so much..."
"It's okay, I asked my mother to stay with me."
"Um."
Li Miaoyu was in poor health, so Wei Qingfan chatted with her for a while, then hugged her and fell asleep. While she was sleeping, she suddenly woke up with a jolt.
"What's wrong?"
Li Miaoyu also woke up from the lake and asked with a smile.
"There seems to be movement..."
Wei Qingfan listened carefully, and sure enough he heard his mother's voice coming from outside, so he quickly took his clothes and got out of bed and said, "I'll go take a look."
"I am coming too."
Wei Qingfan put on his pants as he walked and left the room. The lights in the living room were already on. The confinement sister-in-law had already arrived in Li Wanyi's room, and her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were also up.
"Brother-in-law, come quickly!"
"Come on, come on, Wanwan is about to give birth..."
"Okay, let's go to the hospital."
Wei Qingfan had already mentioned that Li Wanyi should stay in the hospital in advance, but she refused and did not want to stay in the hospital. Fortunately, the distance was close, and it was late at night, so there was no need to worry about traffic jams.
Li Wanyi had already put on her clothes and was not in a panic. When she saw him coming in, she smiled softly and said, "It doesn't necessarily mean she's going to give birth. Don't be nervous."
"not nervous."
Wei Qingfan was almost sweating, so he comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, let's go to the hospital first."
"Um."
He helped Li Wanyi go out. Li Miaoyu also came over dressed. When he saw this, he said, "I want to go too."
Wei Qingfan said: "I'll see Wanwan off. Mom, you and Aunt Zhang will come with me. Miaomiao, you'll drive with my mother and Wanyun."
"good."
The whole family hurried downstairs and drove to the hospital.
