Chapter 202: 2 million units! Apple: You want me to learn from it?
The next morning, the number one trending search on Weibo was: Orange mobile phones sold 1.36 million units!
The second one is that Qiandu HR Liu Dong became famous because of a group of photos and was called "Baidu Mom" by netizens.
The third one was that the 12306 ticket booking system crashed. Workers and college students who were eager to go home all spoke passionately in the comment section, greeting all the ancestors of the 12306 engineers.
Chen Yansen sat at his desk and looked out the window. The sky was dark and snowflakes were falling.
Opening Liao Wei's work report, a total of 64,000 Orange C2 mobile phones and 193,000 Orange D1 mobile phones were delivered before 22:00 yesterday.
In addition, Yunsu has also reached a forward warehouse cooperation plan with Pinsheng and Yubo.
On the eve of the Spring Festival, the two companies will put their best-selling power banks, mobile phone cases, tempered films, mobile phone holders and other accessories into Yunsu Express’s central warehouses and terminal outlets in advance.
Once a user places an order on Pinbei, the courier can deliver the goods to the user within 12 hours.
Of course, this is just a preliminary attempt. Combining takeout and forward warehouses is Chen Yansen’s most ideal business model.
However, Kuaipao has just started and is in a stage of rapid development, so it does not have any extra capacity to engage in flash delivery.
“Knock, knock, knock—!”
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Chen Yansen responded casually.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and He Shuang, the administrative director of Orange Technology, walked in with a document.
"Boss, this is the annual meeting process plan and prize budget list, which requires your approval."
After He Shuang sat down, he pushed the document in front of Chen Yansen.
She used to be the executive director of NetEase, and she took the initiative to switch to Orange Technology for the high salary and benefits.
Chen Yansen nodded slightly and opened it casually.
The venue is still the Sky Garden, and is divided into opening, performances, commendations, lucky draws and dinner sessions.
He glanced at the gift list: three special prizes, each with 100,000 yuan in cash; eighty-eight first prizes, each with 30,000 yuan in cash; one hundred and eighty-eight second prizes, each with 10,000 yuan in cash; three hundred and eighty-eight third prizes, each with 6,666 yuan in cash; and the Sunshine Award: an Orange C2 mobile phone (64GB).
Simple and crude, mainly in cash.
“Rustle, rustle—”
Chen Yansen picked up a pen and started to make changes above the amount. The special prize became 200,000, the first prize was 50,000, the second prize was 30,000, and the third prize was 10,000.
"Follow this version."
Chen Yansen handed the document to He Shuang and gave an instruction casually.
Orange Technology and Pinbei only have quarterly bonuses four times a year, and no year-end bonuses, so he increased the lottery amount at the annual meeting a bit.
"Okay, boss." He Shuang took the document, turned around and went to find the finance department.
As the number of companies under his name continued to increase and the Spring Festival approached, Cao Dahua, Pei Yi, Liao Wei and others sent him messages asking whether he would attend the annual meeting.
Chen Yansen agreed to everything! Only the tool and the name can not be faked.
Chen Yansen knew this truth very well. Even if it was hard, he had to show up at the company's annual meeting. Otherwise, after a long time, the people under him might even forget who the boss is.
Thinking of this, he sent a message to Song Yuncheng: "Accompany me on a business trip to Shanghai tomorrow."
"Visiting a cooperative platform or a merchant?" Song Yuncheng replied quickly.
"Attending the annual meeting of Yunsu Express." Chen Yansen said truthfully.
"Boss, I'm a Pinbei employee."
"I won't deduct your salary."
"Chen Ba Pi!"
Song Yuncheng shrugged her pretty face, smiled helplessly, and finally agreed.
at the same time.
Huang Zhang stood in the conference room and coldly asked the senior executives of Meizu: "I don't care what method you use. If the monthly sales of MX don't reach 500,000 units, all of you get out!"
Meizu MX has been online for half a month and has accumulated sales of 237,000 units. It doesn’t look good, but when compared with Orange C2, it is instantly crushed.
How could Huang Zhang save face? "Boss, the marketing department has analyzed that the proportion of online channels in the smartphone industry is increasing. Take Orange Technology for example. It has no dealers and no offline stores, but it can sell more than 100,000 units a day..."
Marketing Director Li Nan spoke slowly.
"Speak to the point! Stop talking on and on and you haven't gotten to the point yet!" Huang Zhang scolded angrily.
"Increase online sales channels, and open stores simultaneously in Taobao, Yidong, Pinbei, Suning and Gome Mall."
Li Nan was frightened and quickly cut to the chase.
"Then do it and get it online as soon as possible!" Huang Zhang waved his hand, signaling the meeting to adjourn.
Ever since Orange and Xiaomi entered the domestic mobile phone industry, it has become increasingly difficult to make money.
In the past, when people held new product launches, they would brag about the functions of core components such as chips, screens, and cameras, and were very secretive about material costs and gross profit margins. However, the last Orange mobile phone new product launch broadened his horizons.
This bastard Wang Teng stood on the stage and introduced the R&D, materials, production, transportation, sales and after-sales costs of Orange mobile phones in front of users, media and competitors.
Even what equipment and instruments need to be purchased for an SMT production line were shared.
Although Huang Zhang thinks there is a lot of water in this, in the eyes of users, Wang Teng is full of sincerity.
When you buy an Orange phone, at least you know where your money is going.
Now that Orange D1 and Orange C2 are selling well, the sales of mobile phone manufacturers such as Meizu, Xiaomi, OPPO and Coolpad have naturally declined.
After all, the market is so big. If Orange Technology takes one more bite, they will take one less bite.
For a time, domestic second-tier mobile phone manufacturers all launched online channel expansion plans.
Manufacturers like Huawei and ZTE, which are strong and have many channels, are still pretending to be reserved, believing that they should keep the online sales channels firmly in their own hands and have no plans to join third-party platforms.
And on the other side of the ocean is Apple's headquarters.
Tim is meeting with executives, and his idea is to remove the Home button in the next generation of products.
Behind the success of Orange mobile phone, he saw the popular trend of global gesture operation.
But Riccio, Apple's senior vice president of hardware engineering, strongly opposed Tim's proposal.
Are you kidding me? As a leader in the mobile phone industry, why is it learning from a regional mobile phone brand in Asia? Riccio was disdainful. On the one hand, he felt that Tim's unauthorized modification of Apple's core design was disrespectful to Jobs. On the other hand, he believed that the Home button was one of Apple's product symbols and should not be easily changed.
Tim was rejected by Riccio in person. He sneered in his heart and thought quickly in his mind how to kick the other party out of Apple's core team.
One o'clock in the morning of the next day.
The official Weibo account of Orange Mobile announced that the sales of Orange D1 on the second day of its launch were 480,000 units, and the sales of Orange D2 were 170,000 units.
Compared with the first day of listing, the decline is quite obvious.
The cumulative sales volume in the first two days exceeded 2.01 million units, with sales reaching 3.01 billion.
The reason for such a big drop is that all Orange mobile phones in all channels have changed to a pre-sale model, so users' enthusiasm for purchasing has naturally decreased.
Shenzhen Factory No. 3 has not yet been put into operation, but yesterday's sales alone accounted for half of the factory's monthly production capacity.
Cao Dahua did not expect that the sales of Orange C2 and Orange D1 would be so hot, but he was powerless and could only urge Zuo Hongyu and Zhang Jing every day to speed up the equipment debugging, recruitment and training of new employees.
"Brother Zhu, are you going home for the New Year?"
In an employee dormitory at the Orange Mobile Phone Factory, a worker couldn't sleep and asked Li Yunzhu who was sitting opposite him.
"No! According to our factory's production schedule, overtime work during the New Year period must be full. Only a fool would go back."
Li Yunzhu became particularly excited when he thought about the triple salary.
After seven days, he can earn at least 3,000 yuan. Anyway, the factory provides food and accommodation, so he is not afraid of being lonely, but he is afraid of having no money.
"Actually, I also want to stay and work overtime, but I haven't seen my child for a year. When I went home last year, my child had just learned to walk. Last time, my mother said that he could run, so I had to go back..."
The worker was talking incessantly.
Li Yunzhu fell asleep in a daze. In his dream, he saw Cao Dahua standing on the podium in the center of the factory. He waved his hand and said that starting tomorrow, the hourly wage would increase to 25 yuan.
Thinking about the 3,000 yuan overtime pay which suddenly became nearly 4,000 yuan, Li Yunzhu was so happy that he laughed in his dream.
…
…
The next morning.
Chen Yansen picked out a young man who could drive and kept his mouth shut from the company’s security, and took Song Yuncheng with him to Shanghai.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, the car stopped in front of the Yunjin Villa District.
Chen Yansen and Song Yuncheng got out of the car and walked straight into the community.
Xiao Li, who was in charge of driving, changed direction and went to a nearby hotel to book a room to rest.
Chen Yansen lived here for more than three years in his previous life, so he was naturally familiar with the place. He came to the door of No. 116 and opened the pine wood door wrapped in copper.
A lush green courtyard comes into view.
The garden of more than 200 square meters not only has an octagonal pavilion, a pond, Podocarpus, sofas, lounge chairs, but also a barbecue area and dining area.
"Huh? The last time I came here, the yard was empty." Song Yuncheng looked curious.
"I found a design company and renovated it a little bit. Let's go inside and take a look."
Chen Yansen pointed to the living room and suggested with a smile.
Song Yuncheng walked in. The living room had a ceiling height of seven or eight meters. It was so large that it was more than enough to play badminton.
"ah!"
Sudden!
Song Yuncheng screamed, and fell onto the sofa, thrashing around.
After finally getting up, she angrily asked, "What kind of sofa is this? It can't even accommodate anyone."
"This sofa costs 260,000 yuan. It's full of water, and when you press a switch, the water flows inside. Sitting on it feels like being in the ocean."
Chen Yansen grinned, found the remote control and pressed the start button.
I saw the soft sofa rising and falling like waves.
"260,000?" Song Yuncheng opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. She could now earn more than 100,000 yuan a month, and had nearly 2 million yuan in her card.
But she still felt that spending $260,000 on this thing was simply crazy.
"You can tell right away that this $260,000 is absolutely worth it."
Chen Yansen took Song Yuncheng's little hand and said with a chuckle.
"Stop making trouble. We have to attend the annual meeting tonight." Song Yuncheng's cheeks flushed slightly.
"It doesn't matter. There's plenty of time."
After Chen Yansen finished speaking, he and Song Yuncheng sat down on the sofa.
The gurgling water in the sofa slowly moved forward, and even if Chen Yansen did not exert any effort, he could still rise and fall with it.
Two hours later, the two of them sat up slowly, then walked into the bathroom together, washed up quickly, changed into new clothes, and walked out the door.
On the other side, Xiao Li received a message from Chen Yansen and immediately drove to the gate of the villa area.
