He didn't know when someone like the Hidden Black would strike him. Having come to Hong Kong twice and dealt with him each time, Xing Baohua felt the timing wasn't right; the other party wasn't prepared.
Perhaps it was because the mercenaries Zhao Shanhai had previously hired had wiped out the American mercenary teams overseas that made them hesitant to act rashly.
Regardless of the factors, we should be careful.
Back in central Shandong, the design department showed Xing Baohua the phone design they had created for Lao Mou.
A candybar design with nine function buttons, a return to basics.
A small 2.3-inch black and white screen with two LED lights behind it for backlighting.
This phone is simple, intuitive, and minimalist, without any complicated functions, except for the addition of a text messaging function.
The phone ringtone is an 8-bit single-rhythm tone and can store 10 frequently used phone numbers and 10 important text messages.
For a phone like this, which costs 1200, what more could you want?
"Give the logo in the middle a hammer," Xing Baohua said to the designer.
"hammer?"
"The hammer in the sickle-shaped logo, from now on this phone brand will be called Hammer. People from Sichuan like to say, 'Make a hammer,'" Xing Baohua said with a smile.
So Lao Mou's mobile phone brand was born, and Xing Baohua even helped him come up with the name.
Little did he know that Xing Baohua had already set the price for the mobile phones he would produce in the future.
For the domestic market, Smartisan phones are inexpensive and affordable for the average person.
If it comes to price wars, Lao Mou's hammer can easily confuse the competition.
As for rice, we will continue to target the mid-to-high-end market, focusing on the domestic market in the future.
Just like Huawei's series, there are many series, and it's hard to tell what each series is targeting.
For example, the P series, Mate series, Nova series, Honor series, and Enjoy series.
In the low-end market, there were the Honor and Enjoy series, and eventually Honor was separated from the Huawei series.
The nova is a mid-range phone, suitable for people who can't afford a high-end phone right now but don't want to lower their standards.
Therefore, the configuration is on par with the flagship series, and the price is reasonable.
The price of 1,200 yuan for the Smartisan phone was just a gimmick, a way to spread the word and let everyone know that Smartisan phones were cheap, thus leaving a lasting impression.
As for costs, Xing Baohua can make a profit of about 30% on his side, while Lao Mou's profit depends on his management costs.
As for whether Lao Mou can be like Foxconn, it's doubtful; the computational cost alone is a headache for him.
Xing Baohua couldn't persuade him on this matter, since the other party had his own development zone, which gave him a unique advantage in saving costs.
