September 1st is destined to be an uneasy day. Longteng Group and Apple officially fell out, and Longteng Group removed all Apple products from the shelves. This move caught Apple by surprise, and a series of chain reactions followed.
This leaves Apple a bit confused.
The most confusing thing is that the order volume of Apple 8 on the official website has dropped rapidly, and the number of returns has increased significantly. It is too inconvenient for Chinese people to not be able to use Longteng Group's software. And offline, Apple's business has been booming these days
The specialty store suddenly became deserted.
This scene was something that no one expected. Who would have thought that the Longteng Group could be so ruthless? This is a move that kills one thousand enemies and damages eight hundred.
As a chain reaction, a big problem occurred in China, which directly affected the U.S. stock market. Apple's stock was in turmoil. In just a few hours, the stock fell by 4%. Within a few hours, Apple's market value evaporated by almost 4%.
Ten billion dollars.
Such turmoil shocked the Apple Group. They urgently dispatched senior executives from their headquarters to China to resolve the matter. At the same time, they began to discuss ways to deal with it to avoid the matter from expanding. Now it is just one company of the Longteng Group that has removed its products. If the Internet companies in China unite
If they get up and remove their products from the shelves together, then Apple may have difficulty in moving forward in China in the future.
Compared with Apple's stock shock, Longteng Group's shock is not too obvious. After all, Longteng Group is not a listed company, and even if it is a shock, it is an internal shock. It will not affect too many people.
Lanhai City, inside Zhang Fan's villa. All the senior executives of Longteng Group's subsidiaries gathered here. In the small conference room of Zhang Fan's villa, everyone had serious faces.
"This time we have turned against Apple. It will have a significant impact on the future development of our company. Moreover, our Longteng Group will not reconcile with Apple in a short period of time. Therefore, our company's future strategic direction must be adjusted."
Zhang Fan sat there with a serious look on his face. This time he fell out with Apple, and Apple would definitely not let it go. If you anger this giant, you must be on guard against them. Even in China, the same is true, Apple has a lot of money.
Horrifying cash flow is what many companies covet.
"To offend Apple, our external expansion strategy must be scaled back. The company's expansion goal must be shifted from abroad to domestic. As the saying goes, in order to deal with foreign affairs, we must first settle the domestic affairs. Our next strategy is to gain a foothold in the country and shrink all resources.
, clenched into a fist. Take root in the country..."
Zhang Fan's words made everyone nod. Foreign strategies are not easy to implement. In order to open up the Japanese market, Longteng Group has made a lot of efforts. Even so, Longteng Group's performance in the Japanese market can only be considered acceptable. Now I am offended.
Apple and Longteng Group’s business in Japan will be hit in the future.
"At the same time, the business focus of our Longteng Group will also change. Now our Longteng Group is still an Internet company in the final analysis. In the future, we must build our own industry. Only in this way can we avoid the uncertainty of the Internet to the greatest extent.
To avoid the dot-com bubble…”
As soon as Zhang Fan said these words, everyone got excited. Building your own industry is a very challenging thing. However, Longteng's self-operated model has actually already intervened in the industry. However, the current focus of the company is still
It's the Internet.
"My plan for the future of Longteng Group can be described in three simple words. These three words are "Longteng Family", which is family-centered. Looking to the future, we will create an intelligent era that belongs to our Longteng Group..."
Zhang Fan stood up, and the big screen behind him was cool. A picture appeared on the big screen. A large circle on the big screen represented a home, and the many small circles inside represented the composition of the home.
"Please see, everyone. Home is an indispensable part of all of us. But with the development of technology, our lifestyles have also changed. The future focus of our Longteng Group is to build smart homes, smart furniture, and smart appliances.
Smart lifestyle. In the future, we will focus on two keywords. One is intelligence and the other is health..."
Zhang Fan's words made everyone couldn't help but nod. In the future home, intelligence and health are indeed the two most critical words. With the improvement of people's living standards, people have higher and higher requirements for the quality of life. And the improvement of Internet technology
, making the home more and more intelligent.
"The focus of smart home lies in the word intelligence. The intelligent fresh air system will intelligently monitor the humidity, air quality, temperature and other series of data in the room and automatically adjust it so that residents can live in the most comfortable environment. Intelligent health
The system will comprehensively detect the physical condition of the residents and record it.
If there is a problem with the single body, the alarm will be automatically alerted. At the same time, the smart home also implements one-click control on the mobile phone. It will automatically enter sleep mode when no one is at home, saving resources to the greatest extent. When you are about to go home, you can directly control it remotely.
Let humans enjoy the most comfortable environment when they return home."
Zhang Fan began to explain the concept of Longteng Home. Longteng Home is home-centered. It builds smart furniture, smart appliances, etc. In short, someone else gives Longteng Group a rough house, and Longteng Group is responsible for building a smart, healthy, and
A safe home. All products within Longteng Group will be produced by itself.
It can range from furniture and home appliances to plug-in boards and screws to create a complete set of smart home systems. At present, China's urbanization process is still increasing. If Longteng Group can seize this opportunity, it will definitely be able to go further.
Finally, four keywords appeared on the big screen. The concept of the Longteng Family in the future will revolve around these four keywords.
"My request is very simple. Spend a lot of money and focus on the future. We must use the Internet's thinking to look into the future. Look ahead to ten, twenty or even fifty or one hundred years later. I have said long ago that our Longteng
The group is not a company that only pursues profits. It is a company that pursues dreams."
Zhang Fan's words made everyone applaud. Having followed Zhang Fan for such a long time, they have already seen Zhang Fan's courage. Zhang Fan is the kind of person who dares to play and can afford it. He dares to play even if it is not listed on the market.
Even if the company goes bankrupt, Zhang Fan will not be in despair.
"Let's talk about the second thing next. The second thing is the company's shareholding reform."
After Zhang Fan's words fell, everyone immediately became energetic. Now Longteng Group is 100% controlled by Zhang Fan. If it wants to reform now, it may cause huge changes within the company.
