Chapter 396 Crazy Sales: 278 Million Units in Two Days! Chen Guobin: Free-Range Approach, Big Foot Approach as a Secondary Solution!
Since the launch of Aurora Future OS, domestic smartphone users have had another new option.
In an era dominated by Android and iOS, Aurora Future OS and Windows Phone systems have made a strong entry into the market.
Nokia's Symbian system is now a thing of the past.
Under Chen Yansen's deliberate manipulation, after 20 units of the Qingcheng D2 equipped with Aurora OS sold out, the shipping time shown on the pre-order link was a week later than that of the Aurora Future OS version.
The Qingcheng D2, priced at 799 yuan, is impeccable in both price and configuration.
Initially, the marketing department's pricing strategy was 899 yuan, but General Manager Chen insisted on lowering the price by 100 yuan because he knew the smartphone market in 2013 all too well.
For users who buy a smartphone priced at 799 yuan, cost-effectiveness is the core demand, and most people do not care about the richness of the application ecosystem.
After all, they dared to try even knock-off phones with loudspeakers, scrolling lights, dual SIM cards, the ability to shave, and the ability to light cigarettes, so why would they mind missing a few games or apps?
Moreover, it is compatible with commonly used software such as QQ, Sohu, NetEase, Kuaidi Dache, OFO bikes, and Kuaidi Dache, only some mobile games are missing.
Therefore, on the second day after its online launch, with the help of more than 100 offline direct-sale stores, the sales of Qingcheng D2 reached a new high, with a total of 141 million units sold.
Even the Aurora Future OS version of the 360 N2 sold out in just half an hour, with all 5000 units snapped up.
The news shocked the entire industry!
A single phone sold 278 million units in two days—that's insane!
Lei Yijun was so envious that his eyes turned red. He urgently convened a management meeting with only one topic: to copy Qingcheng D2's approach and learn from it to the fullest extent!
Xiaomi is also making its way into the budget smartphone market!
Mobile phone manufacturers such as Coolpad, Little Pepper, Dakele, Tianyu, and Bird have also turned their attention to the low-end market.
In their view, since Orange and Xiaomi are already established, they can't make money off fools by charging premiums. So they might as well enter the market for budget phones, or even phones priced around 100 yuan, and continue to make money.
It's all about small profits but quick turnover!
The screen, battery, processor, and memory are all made from off-brand products. All that's needed is to make the screen size bigger. If you sell them in fourth- or fifth-tier cities, you can still make a few hundred yuan per unit.
OPPO and VIVO are well aware that as the number of Orange Smart Living Experience Centers continues to increase and Cloud Speed Service Stations rapidly spread in North China, East China, and South China, their offline sales networks are also being impacted.
Users in rural areas may not be very clear about the differences in mobile phone configurations, but the price difference is obvious.
With the help of more than 1300 Yunsu Express service stations, Orange Technology successfully sold Qingcheng D2 oranges to the rural market. However, due to the extremely limited inventory, they were sold out in less than half a day.
Every day, uncles and aunties from the neighborhood come with expectant faces to ask: When will the goods arrive?
To this end, the Shenzhen factory specially produced 20 units of the Aurora Future OS version of the Qingcheng D2, which were distributed to the rural market through Yunsu Express.
Two days later, "Youth Distance" aired, and Chen Yansen once again topped the trending searches with his good looks, wealth, experience, and eloquence.
His quote, "As long as you're on the path of catching up, every step you take is the right one," was instantly adopted by countless young people as their QQ signature.
Clichés and clichés, sweeping the internet!
……
……
Chun Shen, State Guest House.
Old Chen sat hunched over on a small stool, looking up at the television on the cabinet.
In the video, Chen Yansen is impeccably dressed and full of vigor, constantly talking about '200 billion' and '500 billion'.
"That rascal, he's afraid people won't know he's rich."
Chen Guobin muttered under his breath.
He was holding a brand new 64GB version of the Shiny Orange X1 in his hand.
Although Chen Yansen's words were harsh, he often gave Old Chen gifts.
From mobile phones and speakers to computers and electric vehicles, all of Senlian Capital's new products are available at Lao Chen's place.
"Dad Chen Yansen, are you busy?"
Just then, a clear female voice came from outside the door.
Following the sound, Old Chen turned around and saw that it was Zhang Li, his son's high school homeroom teacher. He hurriedly grabbed the remote control and changed the channel.
Watching Chen Yansen's interviews in front of outsiders always made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
Seeing this, Zhang Li smiled faintly and observed Chen Guobin without making a sound. Everyone says that money can support people. She didn't believe it before, but now she does.
She heard that Chen Guobin now lives in a villa and drives a BMW X5, and his overall appearance and demeanor are indeed different from before.
Previously, she had a good impression of Lao Chen, but Chen Guobin's good point was his infatuation, but his bad point was that he had no intention of finding a stepmother for Chen Yansen.
Zhang Li was already in her thirties at the time. Seeing that she would miss the chance to have children if she didn't get married soon, she couldn't afford to wait any longer. So, with the help of her colleagues, she married a history teacher from the same school.
"Teacher Zhang, hello! It's been a while! What would you like to drink? I'll go get it for you."
Chen Guobin stood up and greeted him with a smile.
"Dad Chen Yansen, you don't need to be so polite. There's something I'd like to ask you."
A look of embarrassment appeared on Zhang Li's face as she spoke hesitantly.
"Tell me about it." Chen Guobin opened the freezer, took out a bottle of jasmine tea, and then enthusiastically handed it to Zhang Li.
Old Chen knew very well that without Zhang Li's guidance and education back then, his son would probably not have been able to get into a junior college after three years of studying at Chun Shen No. 2 Middle School.
He was extremely grateful to Zhang Li for this.
"With only 70 to 80 days left until this year's college entrance examination, the school would like to invite you, as a parent of an outstanding student, to encourage the students and share your successful parenting experience."
Zhang Li thanked her and slowly explained.
Educational experience?
Chen Guobin scratched his head, thinking: I don't have this thing either!
His educational philosophy for Chen Yansen has always been "free-range parenting with kicks as a supplement," meaning he would kick Chen a few times if he didn't listen.
If this were said out loud, wouldn't people laugh at us?
Thinking of this, Old Chen's face flushed, and for the first time he regretted it: He really shouldn't have kept kicking his son.
So he waved his hand repeatedly and said, "Teacher Zhang, we're old acquaintances. To be honest, ever since Chen Yansen went to high school, I haven't even asked about his studies."
"It's alright, the manuscript has already been written for you."
Zhang Li spoke with a smile, then handed over a prepared speech.
The school didn't really want Chen Guobin to share any nonsense about education; they were clearly after his identity as the "father of the founder of Senlian Capital and a billionaire father with a net worth of 50 billion."
Chen Guobin took the manuscript and read it carefully. He found that the content was logically clear and showed both sincerity and approachability.
Does the Chen Yansen described in the article—a man who respects teachers, loves children, unites with classmates, and studies until 10:30 every night—have anything to do with his own son?
Old Chen chuckled dryly. He was thin-skinned and really didn't like to lie through his teeth.
……
……
"I have always believed that the premise of education is respect. Since Chen Yansen was a child, I have treated him as a friend."
Furthermore, cultivating effective learning methods is far more important than blindly pursuing high grades. During the crucial final year of high school, Chen Yansen would study until 10:30 p.m. every day…
In an office on the top floor of Zhuxianzhuang Science and Technology Park, Chen Yansen watched a video of his father, Lao Chen, giving a speech at his alma mater and smiled helplessly.
Who wrote the article?
That's utter bullshit!
"Boss, Orange Technology's weekly meeting is scheduled for 2 PM in conference room A6 on the eighth floor."
The door was open, and Chen Jie stood at the door and knocked lightly twice, gently reminding her.
She paused for a moment and continued, "General Manager Ye from the Brand Department has already communicated with the 'Win in China' program team on Jiangsu TV. You, along with Ma Liyun from Ali, Liu Chengzhi from Lenovo, and Shi Yuzhu from Giant Group, will serve as mentors for the first season. The first episode will be recorded on April 15th." "Next Tuesday, the IT Leaders Summit will be held in Shenzhen. Your plane ticket has been booked."
"Okay, I understand." Chen Yansen nodded slightly.
"Winning in China" is a reality show featuring entrepreneurs. In addition to entrepreneurial mentors, the first episode's guests included Yao Jinbo, Lei Yijun, Li Xiang, Wang Xiaofei, Mao Geping, and others.
However, Chen Yansen acted as a mentor, while Lei Yijun and others played the role of students.
Everyone shares the same goal: to promote their own products!
After Chen Jie finished her report, she quietly left the office.
Chen Yansen glanced at his watch; it was 11:50, just lunchtime.
I haven't had the cafeteria chef's handmade noodles in a long time, and I'm actually missing them.
He pushed open the office door, took the elevator down to the first floor, and slowly walked towards the cafeteria.
"boss!"
"Brother Sen!"
The greetings never stopped throughout the journey.
To ordinary employees, Chen Yansen was a "god-like boss," providing them with a monthly meal allowance of 800 yuan, which, given the price of the cafeteria's food, was practically free for all three meals a day.
Employees receive monthly salaries, housing subsidies, transportation subsidies, quarterly bonuses, and overtime pay in abundance. They also receive cash bonuses during holidays and participate in lucky draws on their birthdays.
Many recent college graduates really treat their companies like home!
Even full-time customer service staff receive a base salary of 3000 yuan per month, and with various benefits, their pre-tax income easily exceeds 6000 yuan.
Food is free; accommodation is provided with a monthly subsidy of 600 yuan.
The house price in the suburbs of the virtual city is only three or four thousand yuan per square meter, so how expensive can the rent be?
600 yuan is enough to rent a one-bedroom apartment!
It's worth noting that the teacher's apartment Chen Yansen rented only cost four or five hundred yuan a month.
“Boss!” Mike Keller and Wu Shengyu were walking and talking about the architecture design of Tiangong A100 when they looked up and saw Chen Yansen not far away.
The two jogged a few steps to catch up!
"Mike, Lao Wu," Chen Yansen stopped and replied.
The three chatted as they walked and soon entered the cafeteria.
The layout of the cafeteria has changed significantly compared to six months ago.
The original canteen in the science park has long since closed down, and now only the canteen of Senlian Capital remains.
On the left is the Western food area, which mainly serves the artificial intelligence laboratory and R&D engineers of Tiangong Technology; on the right is the Chinese food area, where domestic employees are the main customers.
Of course, these R&D personnel from Europe and America would occasionally change their tastes and boldly try Chinese food; similarly, domestic employees would sometimes go to the Western food area window because they found the queues too long.
"A bowl of beef noodles, with extra beef."
Chen Yansen gave instructions to the ramen chef.
"Alright, almost done! No scallions, lots of cilantro, right?" the ramen chef asked with a smile.
Chen Yansen smiled and nodded.
"Snapped!"
Someone gently patted my shoulder.
Chen Yansen turned around and looked at Meng Jie, who was standing on tiptoe. He subconsciously wanted to pat her head.
Meng Jie chuckled and dodged to the side, saying, "I'm at the company."
Chen Yansen rolled his eyes and lowered his voice, saying, "Going to Shidu for hot springs tomorrow? I bought you a swimsuit."
"Could it be some weird clothes again?" Meng Jie spoke softly, as if she were doing something wrong, her eyelashes trembling slightly, her eyes bright and moist.
The 21-year-old girl had just shed her last trace of immaturity, becoming even more charming and lovely, with her lips pink and plump.
"I won't tell you yet, I'll give you a surprise later," Chen Yansen replied.
"It was clearly a surprise for yourself," Meng Jie bluntly pointed out.
"Aren't you happy? Every time you..." Chen Yansen said with a wicked smile, but before he could finish his sentence, Meng Jie covered his mouth with hers.
"Don't talk nonsense." Meng Jie pleaded pitifully, her lips turned down, her face flushed.
She is a lively and cheerful person, but she can't resist Mr. Chen's teasing. She is bold in private and easily amused.
"Boss, your beef noodles are ready!" the noodle chef called out.
Chen Yansen looked up and saw that, good heavens, there was at least half a pound of beef in it.
"I'll wait for you over there," Chen Yansen said, looking around and pointing to an empty table.
Mengjie responded.
Chen Yansen had just sat down with his noodles when Huang Zheng came over with a big smile and said, "Suning had a bug this morning. All the refrigerators that cost ten yuan each had their orders canceled."
"Self-operated or a third-party merchant?" Chen Yansen pressed.
“A third party,” Huang Zheng replied with a smile.
Two weeks ago, Zhang Jindong kept harping on JD.com's 1-yuan group-buying bug and secretly encouraged users to complain or sue JD.com.
But he didn't expect that he would be proven wrong so quickly!
"Regarding the pricing on the back end, you should talk to Zhuang Rui more when you have time. I don't want to see this kind of thing happen on Pinduoduo."
Chen Yansen thought for a moment and said.
Generally speaking, when faced with price bugs, large and well-established platforms with substantial financial resources can usually withstand the losses.
But what about the third-party merchants who have joined?
Even if only a few thousand refrigerators costing 10 yuan are sold, the value of the goods is still over several million yuan. The brand can grit its teeth and get through it, but for the distributors, it is a disaster.
In reality, Chen Yansen knew that most of the merchants who were being taken advantage of were also up to no good.
The price of 10 yuan is obviously a merchant's attempt to inflate sales figures, but someone discovered it using a web crawler and then posted it online.
“Yes, boss,” Huang Zheng replied immediately.
Pinbei Mall has extremely strict controls in this regard because the act of placing fake orders not only harms the interests of users but also reduces the platform's revenue.
If everyone is engaging in fraudulent order practices, who will still spend money on platform marketing tools and traffic?
at the same time.
Upon learning of this situation, Liu Qiangdong, who was far away in the United States, immediately logged onto Weibo and Toutiao to publicly criticize Zhang Jindong by name: "He has utterly disgraced Jiangsu entrepreneurs! Where has his sense of responsibility gone?"
JD.com at least lost tens of millions, but Suning didn't give a single penny.
Handsome Dong is truly ruthless, attaching a screenshot of Zhang Jindong's previous Weibo post, which clearly states: "If Suning encounters this kind of situation, it will definitely fulfill the contract."
The netizens whose orders were canceled didn't expect to receive a refrigerator that cost only ten yuan, but Zhang Jindong's Weibo post was just too shameless.
Comparing the two, Dong's solution was more than ten times better.
Zhang Jindong did not respond, pretending not to see it.
Liu Qiangdong then added, "I suggest that buyers whose orders have been cancelled can protect their rights through the market supervision association or litigation."
"Ghostwriting! What's it to you?" Zhang Jindong was furious and made up his mind to teach Handsome Dong a lesson on 618.
