Just when the consumer electronics market was still buzzing about the new Mars smartphone, Apple suddenly announced that it would temporarily adjust the launch time of Apple smartphones.
Among them, the Chinese market will be launched one month ahead of schedule, and the North American market will even be launched one week later!
As soon as this news was released, it immediately triggered a carnival among Chinese Apple fans. Although users in North America were somewhat dissatisfied, Apple did not care in order to make money.
"If you do the math, Apple's new 5G smartphone will be released on the same day that our phone goes online! To be precise, because we don't have an offline store yet, online sales don't open until 12 noon, and they still have to
Twelve hours early, this is intentional!" Deep Space Technology Company, Pan Yu and Meng Xiaobai were on a video call.
"They want to seize the opportunity." Meng Xiaobai said, "I didn't expect Apple to be afraid of us."
"The price of our mobile phones is almost the same as that of Apple's mobile phones. If consumers buy their mobile phones, they will not have the money to buy our mobile phones." Pan Yu was a little worried and said: "It is too late to adjust the launch time now, and our supply chain is not prepared enough."
, there is no way to advance.”
This is also the current disadvantage of Deep Space Technology. It does not have an independent supply chain, so production capacity and supply cannot be adjusted as indicated.
"Then we have to go head-to-head!" Meng Xiaobai not only didn't feel worried, but was actually a little excited. Who would have thought that Deep Space Technology would have to go head-to-head with Apple's new products less than a year after making smartphones.
This time, if they lose, they will suffer losses; but if they win, Mars Smartphone will establish its position in the mobile phone market! From now on, it will be unbreakable within three years!
"Then touch it!" Pan Yu took a deep breath, "I don't believe that we can't sell such a good mobile phone to them!"
…
The release date of the mobile phone is getting closer and closer, until the day before the release date.
On this day, Apple flagship stores across China are making preparations. Because according to past practice, when Apple's new mobile phone is released, there will be a large number of buyers the next day, and they must maintain order.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Apple's flagship store in Shanghai is not closed. Manager Feng of the flagship store is arranging security guards to install protective equipment at the door.
"Here, make a few more turns. Yes, you must maintain order tomorrow!" At the entrance of the Apple experience store, the manager arranged for security guards to use temporary protective fences to enclose a circle of queuing channels.
There are also a lot of security guards, ten of them are arranged!
Manager Feng is very satisfied. According to past experience, if Apple’s new 5G smartphone is released tomorrow, the entrance to the flagship store will definitely be blocked. This arrangement is definitely a move based on experience! It is also the envy of other brand flagship stores!
In addition to these, he also invited reporters to take pictures of consumers lining up to enter the store tomorrow, and then posted them online. Let netizens see that Apple is still Apple, the king of high-end phones!
The preparations continued until the next morning, when Manager Feng went to the store as usual.
"It's already eight o'clock, so there must be a queue at the door, right?" Manager Feng thought as he drove to the parking lot near the flagship store.
When he reached the door of the store, he couldn't help but let out a surprised exclamation.
"Huh? That's not right!" Manager Feng rubbed his eyes and looked again carefully. Originally, he thought that the entrance of Apple's flagship store should be full of people at this moment. It was so crowded that the security guards were struggling to maintain order...
But none of this happened! Ten security guards stood bored at the door chatting.
There were only a few people outside the store, and these people didn't bother to line up. They just stayed outside playing with their mobile phones, waiting for the flagship store to open.
"Why are there so few people?" Manager Feng was very puzzled. This is unscientific. Aren't those Apple fans very enthusiastic? Aren't they looking forward to Apple's 5G mobile phone? Where are they?
Not only him, but also Apple flagship store owners in other places want to know the answer to this question.
In the morning, Apple's 5G smartphones went on sale, and people were buying them in flagship stores and online, but there was no situation where the inventory was directly robbed. Judging from the sales volume, it seems to be pretty good.
Until 12 noon, the new Mars smartphone will finally be on sale.
In Deep Space Technology, the Mars smartphone business unit, everyone is staring at the screen. Their sales are conducted online, so just look at the backend to know the sales.
"The inventory of Mars smart camera phone p2 is 200,000 units, the inventory of Mars cloud gaming phone g1 is 100,000 units, the inventory of Mars folding screen phone f1 is 5,000 units, and the inventory of Mars storm phone s1 is 300,000 units." The department head reported the current inventory to Meng Xiaobai.
Condition.
"This time we stocked up in advance. Compared with the last time we launched, the inventory was only 300,000 units, which has doubled!"
"The inventory of g1 is a bit low," Meng Xiaobai said.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Both G1 and F1 use the latest lithium-air batteries. We have limited production capacity for this type of battery, so we don't have much inventory. It should be ready when the battery factory is built." Pan Yu said at the side.
"It's almost twelve o'clock!" The department manager kept staring at his watch. The time now pointed to eleven fifty-seven.
For three minutes, no one spoke, and everyone waited with bated breath for the official sale to begin.
Somewhere in China, in front of a computer, Daewoo, a mobile phone scalper in his thirties, was staring nervously at the computer screen.
In front of the computer screen is the official website for selling Mars smartphones. There is a countdown to the sale, and there are only two minutes left!
"Both the Mars P2 and G1 should be easier to sell, and the S1 should be OK as well, but the S1 is a civilian model and won't make much money. We still stock up on the P2 and G1. You can buy a few of the F1 to play with, but you can't buy too many."
This is the result of unanimous discussion among the scalpers.
Last time, after Daewoo took the risk of hoarding Mars smartphones and made a fortune, the scalpers saw the potential of this brand. So this time, all the scalpers in the group put out funds and prepared to grab the goods!
"Two million, this is the most liquidity I can put out! As long as it can increase by 10%, it will be a net profit of 200,000. If it increases by 20%, it will be 400,000. Mars mobile phone, must
Damn it!" Dayu thought to himself, this time he spent two million to stock up on goods. If he loses money, all the previous orders will be in vain.
The time finally jumped to twelve o'clock, and the purchase link on the official website finally lit up. With quick eyesight and quick hands, Daewoo started to grab the goods. He had already planned to buy the model.
Buy more p2s, then g1s, and finally stock up on a few f1s and not even a single s1. The production speed of this model must be very fast, and there is not much room for price increase.
"Your order has been submitted successfully and is being shipped. Please wait patiently..." The text message prompt on the mobile phone has been sent to Daewoo's mobile phone. He knew that he would just wait quietly for the price increase.
Best, this batch of phones will be sold out immediately so that second-hand prices can rise.
"One hundred thousand units sold!" At 12:08 noon, such a number appeared in the data background of Mars Smartphone Business Department.
Everyone was refreshed. Pan Yu said in surprise: "That's 100,000 units! Last time, we only sold 100,000 units in a whole day, right?"
"Now it's 150,000!" As soon as he finished speaking, the department head laughed, and the sales figures were beating every second.
The inventory figures of various types of mobile phones were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Meng Xiaobai was counting silently in his heart.
"One hundred and seventy-nine, one hundred and eighty, three minutes!" Meng Xiaobai opened his eyes wide and looked at the inventory again.
They are "Mars p2 smart camera phone, 63512 units in stock."
"Mars G1 cloud gaming phone, 0 units in stock."
"Mars F1 foldable screen mobile phone, 3145 units in stock."
"Mars S1 Storm mobile phone, 230,154 units in stock."
In just three minutes, a total of 308,184 units of Mars’ new smartphones were sold, and the sales amount exceeded 2 billion Chinese coins!
In the history of deep space technology, a new sales record was born!
"Three minutes, breaking 2 billion! Haha, and all G1 mobile phones are sold out, which is a miracle!" Pan Yu couldn't help shouting immediately, his voice was full of joy.
"Breaking two billion!" Employees in the entire department cheered. They did not expect that Mars' new smartphone could sell so well!
"We sold 300,000 units in three minutes after going online. There are not many competitors among the entire industry." Meng Xiaobai was also very happy.
"Anyway, we have already won half the battle." Pan Yu said with a smile.
"Yeah, next, we have to look at user reviews." Meng Xiaobai calmed down slightly. The current hot sales are entirely due to the quality of the previous Mars P1 mobile phone and the black technology at the conference.
These consumers rush to buy the Mars smartphone because they believe it can do it. If they buy it back and find that the functions are exaggerated, that is another matter.
The first day of sales is just the beginning of the competition. The sales war will last for a whole year. This is a long-term battle that cannot be relaxed for a moment.
"Lao Pan, we must do a good job in after-sales. This is our weakest point now!" Meng Xiaobai warned.
"Well, this is also my main focus now." Pan Yu said, "We don't have as many flagship stores as other brands. Currently, we only provide online after-sales service, as well as command after-sales service points in major cities. We are waiting for new funds to arrive.
Now, let’s prepare for the offline flagship store.”
"The Mars smartphone is officially launched, with sales of 300,000 units in three minutes and sales exceeding 2 billion!" A piece of current affairs news was posted on a news website.
Netizens and peers can clearly see it.
"It's selling so well!" Tian Bing, president of DaMi Technology, saw the news and hurriedly asked his assistant: "Have you bought the Mars mobile phone you ordered?"
"I bought it and it's already being shipped," the assistant replied.
"Okay, I want to see if their mobile phones are that good!" Tian Bing said to himself.
Like him, other friends also bought new mobile phones from Deep Space Technology for research and experience.
