Pingguo has been playing both sides in recent years, holding high the banner of environmental protection, left the system and right the ecology, and has occupied the top sales volume in the Daxia smartphone market for several consecutive years. Even the Jiaolong mobile phone and Xiawei mobile phone are limited by chip production capacity and R&D and manufacturing costs. Pingguo's market position cannot be defeated in a short period of time.
This was still a friendly situation between Pingguo and Daxia. If Pingguo really started to cause trouble openly, he would not want to see Daxia angry.
It’s not that I’m not confident in the company’s media publicity capabilities.
Although Pingguo's media empire is not well-known, its revenue from applications, games, entertainment, software and books has generated annual profits of more than 20 billion US dollars since ten years ago.
This is just profit, and there is also a huge group of Pingguo users. Once they start pushing in full force, it will be almost a global public opinion offensive across the entire platform.
In addition, Pingguo has also acquired platforms and entertainment companies such as Texture. Pingguo's video business has already entered the film industry, purchasing copyrights and distribution rights, and even has its own TV shows.
But faced with the problem of his butt seat, Cook still wants to fight for it again.
He collected his thoughts, faced the other party's compelling eyes, and said: "At this time last year, the relevant departments of Daxia required that all software on Pingguo's mobile phone must comply with the 'Daxia District Version Number Regulations.' Our application market If non-compliant software still exists after expiration, penalties will be imposed.
At that time, for the sake of market and cooperation with relevant departments, our application mall removed more than 40,000 applications. Among them, the most profitable game sector had the most removed applications, as many as 30,000. This alone cost us seven billion. And this is only the loss on the day when the regulations were introduced. As time goes by, this number has expanded to 1.3 billion.
Maybe you don’t know, but a few years ago, Daxia required mobile phone companies to abide by Daxia’s version number regulations. Many mobile phone manufacturers strictly abide by this regulation. As long as the applications are listed on their malls, they have passed the relevant review. and certification, only our app store is free.
This loss came very late because the relevant departments of Daxia took into account the particularity of our company and gave us certain special preferential treatment. If we continue to provoke, I think these preferential treatment will disappear soon. "
Cook's words simply couldn't impress the other party.
The latter even made some revealing remarks: "We are already moving all our industrial lines to India and Vietnam, where there are cheaper labor and more obedient workers. Our largest foundry, Foxconn, A new factory has also been built in India.
I know you are considering the huge market in Daxia, but have you ever thought that the cost of our production in Daxia is no longer what it was ten years ago. Today’s India, just like Daxia at that time, not only has extremely cheap There is a huge labor force, as well as huge dividends and markets of more than one billion people. In addition, in order to attract foreign investment, India has launched more preferential policies. Believe me, they are more sincere than Daxia. "
Sincerity?
If he hadn't known that the other party's family had cultivated white gloves in India in the last century, Cook would not have talked such nonsense.
However, despite this, he did not have high expectations for Pingguo to transfer its production focus and market cultivation to India. In fact, the quality of the local population and the backward and fragmented society prevented him from transferring it in the 20s. Comparison of Daxia in 2016.
At least twenty years ago, the society of Daxia was stable, the people were simple and loved to work, and they would do their best as long as they were given money.
As for India↑↓, due to the conquest and "cultivation" of religious and upper-class elites and white-glove spokesmen, it is completely impossible to watch now.
With a population of more than one billion, most of whom are illiterate or gangsters, Pingguo and Futukang spent money to build factories. Problems occurred almost every month, seriously delaying production.
But so what?
But the cunning Cook thought of another plan.
"If we are the only ones doing this, it would be unwise. We should join forces with TSMC, Korean Star and even Qualcomm to do it. There is a shortage of chips, Metaverse, and problems with mobile phone component suppliers..."
As Cook spoke more and more, his hook-nosed eyes became more and more satisfied.
As long as the goal is achieved, why bother to stick to a specific method?
So after some discussions, Pingguo contacted TSMC, which he had not seen for a long time, and then some shareholders contacted Qualcomm and Korean Star.
Maybe it's because they have similar odors, or maybe it's everyone's greed for the market, so a small plan came out.
Among them, Korean stars are the most active.
As an old white-eyed boy and an old good boy, the Korean star has suffered a setback in his mobile phone project due to last year's accident, and is eager for a chance to make a comeback, so it is his duty to take the lead.
Korean star Galaxy Z series will hold a new product online launch conference in the summer.
The news jumped to the top of the hot search list, and then rose all the way to the top of the list. Moreover, the topic brought by this news has also been discussed on platforms such as the Jiuzhou community.
After all, this is Korean Star’s New Machine King·JPG
Of course, this is also the true skill of Korean stars who have endured humiliation for so long and come up with it. There are many contents revealed in this news. For example, the protagonists of the conference are two folding screen mobile phones. Their names are Korean Star Galaxy Z Flip3 and Korean Star Galaxy Z Flod3. Moreover, the appearance design and hardware parameters of these two new machines have been updated simultaneously on the official website, but the prices of each version and region have not been announced.
People who originally wanted to watch the excitement immediately changed from watching jokes to waiting for surprises when they saw that it was a foldable screen phone.
Because compared with the previous generation, these two models have brought many surprises in addition to performance upgrades. All support IPX8 waterproof level. This is the first folding screen mobile phone to support waterproof function.
Moreover, the internal screen has been upgraded to a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, and there are even rumors that the price will drop significantly, even within 6,000 yuan.
And within a few hours of this melon coming out, Google threw out another melon.
Google has a new phone too! Moreover, Google set the new product launch conference on September 20. Whether it is intentional or a coincidence, this time is four days earlier than the official launch of Pingguo 13.
Google’s new phone is called Google Pixel 6. There are many highlights in this series, such as Google’s self-developed processor. The official claims that the Pixel 6 series is the fastest, smartest, and most secure Pixel phone to date. High-end configurations are also provided for stacking materials.
Pixel 6 Pro has a triple rear camera combination of 50 million main camera + 48 million telephoto + 12 million ultra-wide angle camera.
In fact, in previous years, Google also sold mobile phones, but it would not promote it in Daxia with such a big fanfare. After all, its butt is very dirty. But this time it also has the idea of fishing in troubled waters and making more money if it can.
In addition, TSMC has also stepped in.
