The company thundered, the stock price collapsed, and its smartphones could basically be declared out in advance, so suddenly the industry did not expect it.
However, even if there is no fuse ignited by the HIIB investment bank, the supplier's arrears will be ignited sooner or later.
At present, the number of smartphone manufacturers in China can be counted. Except for the azure coast company, the first echelon is glory and Xiaomi; the second echelon is vivo, OPPO, 1+, Meizu, The third echelon is Yuli, Tachiko, and some other ideas.
In addition, there are relatively unknown niche brands such as 1+ mobile phones.
Entering the end of December, overseas smartphone consumers are finally looking forward to the release date of Azure-5. From the press conference to the present, sales in the domestic market have reached 30.15 million units.
The sales volume has clearly shown a downward trend, which is also in line with internal big data analysis expectations.
Although it is no problem for the current Chinese people to spend more than 10,000 yuan, but after all, it depends on what the money is used for. With so much money to buy a mobile phone, not everyone can afford it. The country has a population of 1.4 billion and monthly income The 10,000-plus group is only about 3%, just over 40 million people.
There are even hundreds of millions of people whose income is only about 1,000 yuan a month, but now Internet finance is developed, and most young people living in cities are spending in advance.
Big data shows that the group that buys the most Azure-5 phones is not the part of people who earn more than 10,000 a month, but the group with a monthly income of about 5,000-8,000 yuan is the main force.
Young people with a monthly income of about 3,000 yuan can only feed themselves in a current city, or they can solve the problem of food and clothing, and they cannot get sick.
The rent for water, electricity, and hydropower is 500 or 600 yuan, and the food fee is 40 yuan per day, which is 1200 yuan a month. The basic expenses are half gone, plus the Internet fee for buying some snacks, like to play games online, and recharge. Friends have a few supper.
Anything like this is basically spent, and the salary is almost gone just after the first payment, because the flowers have been borrowed.
As for the hundreds of commodities that are all
big pieces
, you have to think about it clearly. Hundreds of clothes and shoes will not be considered.
Occasionally, once you have extravagance, you will have to eat noodles for a week or even longer.
However, even for the group with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, there are still many consumers who purchase Azure-5.
It’s a big deal, just bite yourself and eat instant noodles, but X can’t help but it’s just one of the things I just need to do for a few months. By the way, there are also female anchors who have to be rewarded and have to continue to reward. what.
Since the rise of takeaway services such as Meituan and Hungry in the past few years, several big instant noodle manufacturers have been stricken by dimensionality reduction, and sales have not been as good as a year.
But in recent months, there are data showing that instant noodle sales are picking up...
Over the years, more and more young people have kidnapped their wallets by the so-called "light luxury", "ritual sense", "online red card punch" and other lifestyles on the Internet. The salary is gone.
Decent before people and instant noodles after people are the portrayal of most young people's lives.
Also based on big data analysis, the cumulative sales data of Azure-5 is expected. This product is expected to reach 80 million domestic shipments next year, and the final cumulative shipments will be in the Greater China market. It is expected to hit 165 million units.
...
The time has come to December 24, this is the European and American festival "Christmas Eve", the next day is Christmas.
Azure-5 smartphones were officially launched in the global market today. As early as a week ago, Paris, London, New York and other major Western cities, the single flagship stores under the azure coastline were all lined up.
An offline flagship store in Times Square, New York.
"A 512GB version, choose the second package." A young man with a baseball cap said.
"$3275, may I ask if Mr. card or cash?" the salesman asked with a polite smile.
"Swipe your credit card."
US$3275 is the price with tariffs, and US$2899 is the price without tariffs. It is also worth mentioning that online payment in North America is not well-developed, and basically 90% of consumers use credit cards.
Although there are online payment software such as PayPal in North America, it has a pitiful market share because it touches the interests of North America's traditional financial industry, resulting in this convenient and fast payment life has not been popular in North America.
"Damn, the Chinese are here to grab money again."
Two people standing diagonally across from the store are media reporters from CNN. They are conducting street photography interviews. The elite in North America see this scene is sour and unhappy, Wall Street is also unhappy.
Because the Cote d'Azur is a non-listed company, no matter how hot the product is, they cannot directly obtain vested interests.
But helpless.
Despite such an expensive price, it still can't stop North American consumers from pursuing this brand. Sales in Europe are also in full swing. Due to the last negotiation in Europe, tariffs have been reduced by 50%. The 512GB version does not include tariffs. It is 2599 euros, including The tariff is priced at 2755 euros, which is more affordable than North American consumers.
Azure-5's hot sales popularity, in addition to the largest beneficiary, the Côte d'Azur, supply chain partners are also benefiting, including lifting the international supply chains such as TSMC and Qualcomm. During this time, the stock price is also going strong.
For a small mobile phone, its industrial chain is huge and scary. There are more than a thousand large and small enterprises in the world who are members of its supply chain system. It provides supporting services for this product and is well-known. Large international companies also have outsourcing orders for unknown small businesses.
As a bonus, the console not only drove the strongest sales of the most expensive 512GB version, but also made this console, which has been released for several years, usher in a small peak in shipments.
All aspects that are positive are first of all for the promotion of the real economy. Only when economic development rolls on, can there be energy and consumption power, and can it be cycled.
There is also a complete industrial chain behind the mainframe. The increase in sales means that many manufacturers can take orders and do the work.
At the same time, it is beneficial to the major third-party game developers in the world, and the host user group can grow. In addition to the direct competitors of the host, everyone eats meat.
The birth of Azure-5 has made a qualitative leap in smartphone performance, which has also allowed major third-party game developers worldwide to target business opportunities on mobile platforms.
The undeniable fact is that today's global console market simply cannot be compared with the smartphone market. How many console users worldwide are there? What is intelligence?
The eyes of the major game developers are not blind. In this new battlefield, even Blizzard, which is the mainstay of the PC, has come to share a piece of soup. One more channel is one more way to make money.
However, these large manufacturers have settled in one after another, which has also intensified the fierce competition in the global mobile game market.
The mobile version of "Final Fantasy", "GTA", "Neil: Mechanical Era", "Diablo" and other well-known IP masterpieces are currently in Azure-5's AOSSteam lobby.
With the release of Azure-5, the revenue of these international game manufacturers has also increased.
The launch of Azure-5 on the market not only brought new growth points to the Cote d'Azur company, but even with affiliated companies also followed the meat.
...
After Christmas, a copy of the first day of sales of the Azure-5 mobile phone in North America in the Cote d’Azur was sent to the office of John Bryce, head of the local Ministry of Commerce.
"According to the announcement issued by the Cote d'Azur North America on Christmas Day, Azure-5 smartphones sold 4.3 million units on the first day in the United States and generated $10.5 billion in sales that day."
John Bryce heard the report from the secretary and said in amazement: "What are you talking about? A day's sales are as high as $10.5 billion? Shocking figures, this is looting and plunder!!!"
"Mr. Minister, the Côte d'Azur company's operations in the North American market are all legal. UU reading www.uukanshu.com Even if it is looting, there is no way to stop them, unless consumers across the United States do not buy their products." The secretary answered his tone There was a frustration.
The implication is that even a rogue has to be divided indiscriminately. It always needs a reason, even if the reason is untenable, but at least it is a reason.
"You can't just watch America's wealth being looted and looted by them crazy." John Bryce said with a stern expression, and then he was immediately behind the horse: "The Azure Coast should be rolled out of North America..."
Looking at the speed of Azure-5, which is more fierce than the money printing machine, the old beauty is red with a bit of regret.
"Now it is impossible to try to drive the Côte d'Azur out of the North American market again. He has more than 1.5 trillion U.S. debts in his hands. If we do not admit it first, he has reason to ignite this financial nuclear bomb..." John ·Bryce undercover.
After a while, he thought of a way. Since he cannot drive you out, there is a way to do it without violating the previous agreement. That is to increase tariffs to make your products more expensive, indirectly suppressing your products. Sales in North America!
