Gushici Company did a very good job of keeping this secret and did not let people break the news in advance. However, the popularity of the brand itself is here. Not long after it was released, it became a hot topic on the Internet.
Especially since "Jianjinjiu" has just been released, and now there is a series of three-character poems, people can't help but think about it.
In addition, there are many ancient words for the word "Manjianghong", but the most famous one is undoubtedly the song "Angry and Crowned", which is too well-known.
And because of the author, it has a certain special status in the hearts of many people.
Wei Qingfan used this poem to name his mobile phone, which shows that he attaches great importance to this product!
This quickly aroused various speculations, and because the three characters were the first ancient poem to name a mobile phone in ancient poetry, many people thought that this was the ancient poetry version of "Jiang Jinjiu".
In other words, it is to change the logo of Jinjiu mobile phone and sell it cheaper.
"Is this really intentional?"
In order to express its importance to MX, Meizu deliberately studied ancient poetry and Xiaomi, held a press conference, and specially went to the Water Cube in Beijing to hold the press conference.
This morning, Bai Yongxiang, who was preparing for a press conference, was rehearsing. When he went down to rest, he heard Huang Zhang, who had come with him but was not ready to go on stage, scolding someone in a depressed manner.
He asked a little strangely: "What's wrong? What did Xiaomi do again?"
"It's not Mr. Lei."
Huang Zhang blew out a smoke ring depressedly, "That boy Wei Qingfan... just sent out a poster and held a press conference on December 7th. Isn't this causing trouble?"
Bai Yongxiang smiled and said: "That's okay. It would be better if we also join in the fun with ancient poems. The popularity will be higher. Anyway, our products are good, so don't be afraid."
They are very confident about the upcoming release of MX.
"Fuck..."
Huang Zhang still felt unhappy, "He came here to disgust us... I will definitely beat them all down this time!"
…
"Is there also a press conference for ancient poetry?"
A little later, Lei Jun, who was also rehearsing, also learned the news during a break, "What phone?"
"It's called Manjianghong, an ancient word."
Li Wanqiang introduced the situation, "The popularity is very high. This news has just been announced and everyone is discussing it, and..."
He hesitated to speak and looked very depressed.
"What's wrong? Let me take a look."
Lei Jun took the Xiaomi phone handed to him and was stunned when he saw the poster released by Guci Mobile, "Always believe that good things are about to happen... Let more people enjoy the fun of technology... This, this...
"
He stood there, stunned for several seconds, and then cursed: "Aren't you stealing our lines!"
Xiaomi has been preparing for the Redmi mobile phone recently. Someone has come up with these two slogans. Lei Jun is very satisfied. Who the hell would have thought that the slogans are so exciting!
I just figured out the iron triangle of mobile Internet operations, and you are starting to work on the Luoshen system!
I just started working on Miui, and you released the Guci mobile phone!
Now I'm preparing to make a Redmi mobile phone, and you've stolen all my advertising slogans...
Isn’t this too much?
He was a little angry, but more confused. Then he reacted and asked: "Is this a coincidence? Or did someone leak it?"
"It must be a coincidence, there is no need to steal this thing?"
Lei Jun was also more inclined to this explanation, but he still felt depressed, but soon realized something more serious:
Wei Qingfan used such a slogan, so what is the positioning of this Manjiang Red mobile phone?
His face suddenly became ugly, but he quickly adjusted his mood and smiled again: "It's okay, it's just an advertisement. As long as the product is good, are you worried that it won't be sold? Let's kill their youth version first today!"
…
"Dear Mr. Wei, are you nervous?"
During the lunch break, Wei Qingfan received a message from Li Miaoyu, and attached a photo of the latte she made herself, "Look at what I made, does it look better and better?"
"You came to mock me in the middle of the day, and you still want me to praise you?"
Wei Qingfan despised her behavior and then said: "It's so beautiful! My wife is awesome!"
Li Miaoyu: "I think so too, hehehe~"
Li Miaoyu: "Is the coffee I make the most beautiful in the world?"
Wei Qingfan: "That's for sure!"
Li Miaoyu: “I also think I’m really great!”
Li Miaoyu: "Except for my bad taste, everything is good!"
Wei Qingfan: "On the contrary, your greatest advantage is your extraordinary gaze. You can spot the best men in the crowd at a glance."
Li Miaoyu: "Bah! The thickest-skinned man!"
Li Miaoyu: "Ignore you, I'll show off to my senior sister."
Li Miaoyu: "Take it easy and be nervous."
Wei Qingfan: "I'll take good care of you tonight!"
He sent another message to Li Wanyi: "Wow, Xiaomi and Meizu are going to release new mobile phones. I'm so nervous. What should I do?"
Li Wanyi replied after a while: "Find a piece of tofu and hit him to death."
Wei Qingfan: "Is this how you talk to your husband?"
Li Wanyi: "You just praised Miaomiao for making coffee that looks better than mine?"
Wei Qingfan: "??"
Wei Qingfan: "Slander! This is slander out of thin air!"
Wei Qingfan: "I request to go back at night and the three of us will confront him together!"
Wei Qingfan: "Confront me on the bed!"
Li Wanyi sent a screenshot. After Wei Qingfan clicked on it, he saw the chat content between himself and Li Miaoyu, which clearly showed——
Li Miaoyu: "Is the coffee I make the most beautiful in the world?"
Wei Qingfan: "That's for sure!"
"..."
He didn't know what to say for a moment, but Li Wanyi sent a new message: "Doesn't this mean that what she does looks better than what I do?"
Wei Qingfan wanted to vomit blood and typed: "The coffee made by Wanwan is also the best, as good as the one made by Miaomiao."
Li Wanyi seemed to be even more angry: "When did I sink to the same level as Miaomiao?"
Li Wanyi: "She can't even scramble eggs!"
Li Wanyi: "Ah?"
Wei Qingfan: "Coffee and cooking are not the same thing. Although Miaomiao is not good at cooking, I have to admit that her talent in making coffee is pretty good. She will soon catch up with you."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After coaxing him for a long time, Li Wanyi was finally satisfied.
Before Wei Qingfan could breathe a sigh of relief, Li Miaoyu came over again and took a screenshot: "Forget cooking, when will I be inferior to my senior sister in making coffee?"
Li Miaoyu: "Ah?"
Li Miaoyu: "Liar!"
Wei Qingfan: "..."
Li Miaoyu: "What do you mean?"
Li Miaoyu: "You don't even want to lie to me anymore, do you?"
Wei Qingfan: "..."
It's all my own doing... Marrying two people is not enough, and you still want three... You deserve it!
He took a deep breath, showed no sympathy for himself, and continued typing. He felt even more tired than Lei Jun and Bai Yongxiang who were preparing to hold a press conference.
Thanks to my two roommates for making work seem so easy and simple.
After finishing the afternoon work easily, Wei Qingfan learned about the situation of both press conferences after the press conferences.
Xiaomi has released two mobile phones, Xiaomi 1S and Xiaomi Youth Edition. Xiaomi 1S uses Qualcomm MSM8255 processor, which is an upgraded version of the processor used in Guci 1 last year. It is better than the 8260 used in Xiaomi 1 and Guci 2.
A slightly lower grade, with a 4-inch screen, 512M 2G memory, 8-megapixel camera, and 1900 mAh battery.
This is basically based on the GuCi 2 Youth Edition, and has upgrades in terms of processor and rear camera.
The price is 1499, which is the same as Guci 2 Youth Edition.
The profits of both generations of Youth Edition are not low, even higher than that of Gu Ci 2. This is also the reason why it can be sold in large quantities offline. At the same time, Youth Edition has been criticized online for this reason.
Many fans recommend mobile phones to others on the Internet. The priority of GuCi 1 is far higher than that of GuCi 2 Youth Edition - in fact, this is true. Wei Qingfan would choose GuCi 1 instead of Ci 2 Youth Edition if he chooses it himself.
.
Previously, there was no rival at this price point. After Guci 1 was discontinued, everyone had no choice. The Youth Edition can be said to be a killer online and offline. Although the sales volume is not as good as Guci 1 and Guci 2, it is not bad either.
Guci 2 Youth Edition went on sale in August, and by the end of September, it had sold more than 2 million units.
Now that Xiaomi 1S is out, Guci 2 has no impact, but the Youth Edition is really uncomfortable. MediaTek's processor is cheap, but its performance is indeed not as good as Qualcomm's.
Of course, Wei Qingfan knows very well that if Xiaomi does this, it will definitely deduct costs in other areas that are not marked, but this does not make sense online.
And there is no need to say it, because everyone can choose to learn from Xiaomi in the future.
In addition to Xiaomi 1S, Xiaomi also released a Xiaomi 1 Youth Edition, which is directly comparable to the Guci 2 Youth Edition from its name. The main parameters such as processor, memory, camera, and storage are also the same.
Priced at 1299!
It’s a full 200 yuan cheaper than Guci 2 Youth Edition!
Wei Qingfan now really understood Huang Zhang's mood when he said, "Bitches, themselves, and their industry."
Now it’s uncomfortable for Guci 2 Youth Edition to have a price reduction, but it’s also uncomfortable not to have a price reduction!
A price reduction will make people think, "It turns out that the profit of Guci mobile phones is so high". If the price is not reduced, people will think, "Guci mobile phones are also high-priced but with low configuration, and the price-performance ratio is not as high as I thought."
In short, it’s just one word: uncomfortable!
Fortunately, in addition to Xiaomi, Meizu also held a press conference. If Lei Jun is destined to be the lifelong enemy of Guci Mobile, then Huang Zhangzhen said, "I will only feel sorry for Mr. Wei."
The situation of Meizu MX almost made Wei Qingfan laugh out loud!
Meizu MX is powered by Samsung's Exynos 4210 dual-core processor (the quad-core processor version was released half a year later), a 4-inch 960*640 resolution screen, 1G running memory, and 16G body storage.
In addition, Meizu has deeply customized the flyme1.0 system based on Android 2.3, officially opening the flyme era of Meizu.
Then, the price is... 2999!
2999!!
Wei Qingfan originally thought that the price of MX was 2499 or 2699, but he didn't expect it to be 2999 (it was originally 2999 in history). He was really speechless.
Compared with Jiangjin Wine, what are the advantages of your MX?
My screen is bigger than yours, my resolution is higher than yours, and my PPI is no worse than yours!
My processor is no worse than yours!
My brand influence is much stronger than yours now!
I have a big battery, a big screen, and a clear selling point!
I also have special functions such as round waist keys and knuckle screenshots...
At the same price, why do you think people will choose you over Jiangjin Wine?
For the small screen?
It’s been more than a month since the release of Jiangjinjiu and Samsung Note. Have you not investigated the feedback from the market at all?
But what about Meizu? Naturally, he doesn’t have to worry about it. The price will naturally be reduced when it can’t be sold.
He didn’t remember much about the MX, but he knew very well about the MX2. The starting price was 2,499!
This shows that Meizu is also flexible in this regard... I just don’t know how those Meizu friends who spent 2999 on MX felt when they saw the starting price of MX2.
"Let's have a meeting!"
Wei Qingfan, who was in a much better mood, sent a message to convene a meeting with senior management. Several people quickly came to the conference room. Wei Qingfan sat at the top and smiled and said, "Have you seen the information about Meizu MX?"
When he said this, everyone looked at each other. Then Li Pingguang from the marketing department couldn't help laughing, and then everyone else, including Wei Qingfan, also laughed.
"I saw it."
“Sold starting at 2999, very confident.”
"Sometimes I wonder if Huang Zhang should exchange it with Mr. Wei. One is twenty years old, but he is scheming and can make a sure deal! The other has been around for so many years and still acts like a young boy..."
"what do you mean?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"It's a joke, but Mr. Wei, you did make a good move by setting the wine price at 2999."
"What a fool, do you think I don't want to decide on 3999 or 4999?"
