Chapter 770: Help
In the face of the powerful Intel, Qin Feng knew from the beginning that he knew the difficulties.
"So what to do?" Lei Jun had a headache.
They have an absolute technical level difference, and in the face of Intel's strong move, they almost instantly despair.
Your latest technology can be compared with the previous generation of the other party's products. Now they are coming up with the second generation. How else do you compare?
Qin Feng pondered for a long time.
"In my opinion, there is still only a price war!" Lei Jun smiled bitterly.
This is also the only way for Lei Jun to deal with it after thinking about it for a long time.
"I think there's another trick!" Jiang Yong said.
"What move?" Lei Jun asked curiously.
"I'm afraid this trick won't work!Or, it's not suitable now!" Qin Feng said.
"What move?" Lei Jun was curious.
"Mobilize the people's patriotism and let everyone support our CPUs and national enterprises!" Jiang Yong said, "Then this hurdle can be passed." Then, we'll get enough funding to develop the next generation of CPUs. ”
So far, more than 500,000 CPUs have been sold. That's quite an achievement.
Of course, compared to Intel, that is far from comparable.
For example, just last year, in 1996, 72.5 million PCs were sold worldwide.
More than 70% of them use Intel chips.
Counting the number, Intel's global sales have reached nearly 50 million pieces. On average, 4.16 million pieces are sold a month.
Qin Feng is full of calculations, more than a month, only 500,000 pieces. The sales volume is only one-tenth of the other party. And that's last year. This year, the market share will rise.
In the future, Qin Feng remembers reading a newspaper that said that since 1996, the market share of personal computer sales has increased by double digits every year. Then it wasn't until the smartphone results, that is, after the iPhone 4 came out, and with the iPad came out, that the personal computer market began to gradually decline.
Among them, the vast majority of market share was taken by Intel. You can imagine how profitable Intel is.
"Although it is said that it is really good to play a national brand. But consumers will have aesthetic fatigue. In particular, if our product itself is defective and inferior to others, then consumers are required to sacrifice their own interests to choose our products, which will cause some people to be dissatisfied. Maybe for the first time, yes. But the second time, the third time is still like this, then there will be no consumer to pay. Qin Feng said.
"Not only will they not pay for it, but they will hate us for playing the emotional card!" Qin Feng said, "Therefore, this card is not impossible to play, but it must be used at a critical time, when life and death are at stake." And now, far from the time of life and death!"
Lei Jun nodded.
Now, it is true that the 1st generation of Loongson cannot be compared with the Pentium 2. It was already the turn of the result to be hanged. But here's the problem, the price!
In terms of price, Pentium 2, this tsundere sold for more than 5,000 yuan. At this price, it really makes people speechless. This can only belong to the rich man's world.
And Celeron 2, the price is a little more expensive than the Loongson 1 generation, and the performance is a little worse.
Well, they still have a market. It's just that it's all-in-one with the previous high, middle and low-end, and now, it can only be compared with Celeron 2.
This mentality seems a bit difficult to accept. However, as long as you put your mindset right, we are beating your Celeron series, then it doesn't matter.
"Okay! Then put a low posture first, and we will position the chip that Yang is a little stronger in the game!" Lei Jun slapped the table and said.
Qin Feng smiled.
Subsequently, Qin Feng contacted many bosses in SEG Plaza and told them his decision.
"I'll give you 400 yuan each. No matter how much you sell, in short, you want to compete Yang 2 cheap!" Qin Feng instructed, "I ask for the national market price, Loongson 1 generation, to compete Yang 2 cheap! I want to let no one in China buy Saiyang 2!"
On the other side of SEG Square, many bosses looked at each other.
Before that, they did make a wave. Qin Feng gave them a price of 400 yuan, and they sold it for 800 yuan, and some even thousands of yuan. It's a hard wave.
After all, the profit has been doubled. What's more, add the profit of other spare parts. With a 7,000 yuan computer, they can earn about 3,000 yuan. And that's not even counting the deep-pocketed players. They have to go with a few other things.
In this calculation, they can sometimes even earn four or five thousand yuan for a computer.
In this year, a computer earns four or five thousand yuan, which is too profitable. It's simply more lucrative than a robbery.
But now, Celeron 2 is in the 600 yuan range. They have to race Jan 2 cheap, and then the profit will come down at once.
Of course, they didn't have a choice. The performance of the CPU chip is here. Now the Loongson 1st generation is a little better than the Yang 2. Then you sell high, and there are no consumers to pay.
That can only reduce the price.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have something to say here! I'm just a northerner who has gone south, and people here talk lightly, just to make some money and eat. But I think we should take a long-term view as human beings!" said a dark-skinned young man.
Many bosses looked at the young man, wanting to know what he was going to say.
"Personally, I feel so. Mr. Qin's side is a national enterprise. It also gave us a very good profit return before, so let's make money. Now, limited by the problem of product performance, it is suppressed by Intel. I think we should help him. The young man said.
"How can we help?" asked the bosses.
"It's very simple, help Mr. Qin promote Loongson. It is true that the performance of the Loongson is far inferior to the Pentium 2, however, that is the high-end market. We can persuade everyone who wants to buy other chips, such as AMD, or Celeron 2, to buy Loongson. Even if it is a high-end user, we can persuade them not to spend so much money on such an expensive product. I believe that as long as we can help Mr. Qin get through this difficulty, Loongson will be able to win breathing space and have a brilliant future. At that time, we could also make a lot of money! Moreover, we could also win a good name! And, I think, we would have the friendship of President Qin!"
Many bosses pondered carefully, and this is really the reason. That's right, it's very true.
For them, it can be said that it is more than one stone. It's just a little less high-end profit for the time being. However, this small loss, they are still acceptable. After all, there is still money to be made.
On the contrary, if he really helped Loongson get up, Qin Feng would not miss their favors. Especially, they can be regarded as old acquaintances on Qin Feng's side. When Loongson develops, they will be indispensable.
For example, if Qin Feng develops other hardware or something, they can also get the lowest price, right? You know, it is usually impossible for these small traders to get the same price as the big computer sellers.
