Chapter 47: New Product Launch Conference (VI)

(Ps: One more chapter~~~ Shi Xian wanted to have an interesting PY transaction with the previous one, can it beat the hell? You guys are reluctant to take action. Is there a dirty PY transaction behind this? What? The transaction has begun? It seems that the transaction has been completed!! Hehe! Without further ado, the new chapter will be released first, full of sincerity~~~)

How much is the price? The barrage on major video websites are now looking forward to the same issue and talking about the same topic.

"You said, what will the price of the 'S-1' be?"

"It must be very expensive. We can only look at the brick-moving party from a distance. If you say too much, you will be tears!"

"It should be more expensive than iPhone! Otherwise, let's cut something for live broadcast!"

"Will it exceed 50,000? I think it is cheaper if you exceed it, and there will be no fewer people who buy it. There are really not many people who don't like the 'S-1' after seeing it!"

"Brother Ren~ Oh, please announce the price quickly! We will check the parameters ourselves. Come on, don't torture us anymore, sweat~~!"

Finally, Ren Hong said something that everyone was looking forward to.

"About the price of 'S-1'." Ren Hong's voice surrounded the entire press conference hall, "The official unified price of the wearable smart device 'S-1' is...$1,199!"

"How could it be so cheap? The 128GB version of iPhone 7S-plus costs $1,099. How can the 'S-1' be so cheap?" A foreign reporter said to himself in an incredibly surprised tone. How could such a device cost so low?

The audience was filled with a low scream, followed by warm applause. US$1,199 is a not low number. This number is $100 higher than the iPhone 7S-plus. However, at such a similar price, the "S-1" is completely over Apple. Compared with the iPhone, the wearable smart device "S-1" can definitely be considered cheap and affordable.

Obviously, it is foreseeable that when Ren Hong announced the price of the "S-1", users were undoubtedly the most excited, especially the original iPhone users. Although they claimed to be Apple fans, when both products were around $1,000, the iPhone was on the left and the S-1 on the right.

I'm afraid not many people will invest their money to the left, which is a question that can be completely thought about with his heels.

The users were excited. They could not have imagined that the "S-1" would be so cheap! In fact, this price is not cheap, and it has been included in the ranks of high-end consumer electronics. However, after comparing with the iPhone, users felt that the "S-1" was really too cheap. Almost all the configuration and experience of the iPhone ten streets, Xiaoyou, who had a 100-mile kilometer-long Sisr, was only $100 higher than the iPhone. This is not cheap, it is nothing! It is so cheap that it is outrageous!

Many people think that the "S-1" is at least more than US$2,000, but they do not expect that it only costs US$1,199, or RMB 7,755.

Several companies are happy and sad. While users around the world are screaming and cheering for this price, other mobile phone manufacturers are full of dark clouds. Domestic mobile phone manufacturers such as Xiaomi and OPPO have no sense of disaster until they waited, and they have no relationship with them. The reason is obvious. The market they are targeting is the mid- and low-end market, and the high-end market has always been dominated by foreign brands such as iPhone and LG. This time, the wearable smart devices launched by XlouS are also targeting the high-end market.

"What I'm most curious about now is what kind of expression Cook has! The Chinese business and technology circle has created an amazing young man." He smiled gloatingly at home watching the video of the press conference.

At this moment, even the blind man could see that XlouS company brought the wearable smart device "S-1", which was to directly compete with Apple's iPhone series for high-end market share. Anyone could see that the price of $1,199 is to make the "S-1" and iPhone face the positive rhythm!

From 2007 to now, is there finally a company and a product that can challenge the iPhone in the high-end market?

"Did you see it?"

A voice came from the phone in Cook's hand. After a long time, his voice rang in the office. "Prepare to hold a meeting the next day!" After that, he hung up the phone, couldn't help but take off his glasses, and covered his face with both hands.

Why resist the enemy?

$1,199! That's equivalent to declaring war on Apple! But in the face of such a revolutionary product, how can we stand out from the cruel competition?

Unless the new generation of iPhones are also innovative and more advanced than their competitors!

But when he thought about the performance and configuration of the iPhone 8S flagship version compared with the "S-1", even he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Cook couldn't help but turn his attention to the live video, looking at the young man who always had a peaceful smile, confident and calm. He seemed to see the shadow of Jobs from this young man. When Jobs stood at the press conference, he was also as confident and calm as this young man...

"How could such a person appear in China?" Cook murmured to himself.

On the other hand, the XlouS announcement conference, which is far away in the eastern hemisphere, has now entered the reporter's questioning session.

"Hello, Mr. Ren! Will your company's new product 'S-1' be directly involved in the competition with Apple's iPhone?"

"This foreign journalist friend, I need to emphasize one thing: Chinese people's thinking is different from that of Europe and the United States. We will not deliberately look for competitors. I believe that every product has its own value and its corresponding position, and I only need to find its location and value! So, no!"

"Hello! Mr. Ren, will your company establish an offline direct distribution channel of 'S-1' around the world?"

"The company has cooperated with many world logistics companies and will not set up any specialty stores and sales channels offline. Consumers can obtain orders on the company's sales website. At that time, professional couriers will deliver goods to their door-to-door, and the only offline direct store is at the headquarters. It will be opened to the public on time at 10:00 tomorrow and the product will be sold!"

However, just as the press conference was about to end, Ren Hong suddenly said: "There is a news I'm going to announce at the end, and now is the time." He seemed to be trying to brew emotions, and for a moment, finally said: "We have still considered the issues of mid-range consumers, and we also want to provide products and services to these users..."

When talking about this, the big guys such as "Rebs" were not calm on the spot, and immediately stared at the live broadcast, not even letting go of it here? Do you know how many mobile phone manufacturers will kill this? Many people will starve to death!!!

Ren Hong continued: "To this end, the company will launch a smart specific version of the voice assistant 'Xiaoyou' for this group. On May 25, XlouS official website will open the download section of the Android version of the smart voice assistant Xiaoyou."

"The ability to launch the Android version of Xiaoyou is due to the open source of its operating system, which has enabled the birth of the Android version of Xiaoyou Assistant. This is also the only service we can provide to mid-range consumers. However, Xiaoyou of the Android version only supports version 8.0 or above."

"With the Android version of Xiaoyou, a 2,000 yuan mobile phone will completely bid farewell to the era of manual control and become a member of the voice control club."

"The Android version of Xiaoyou Assistant will be a paid application, which is also a monthly fee system, with an official price of US$5 per month. The official website will provide a download section tomorrow!"

The last message was an unexpected surprise for Android phone users around the world. Since seeing Xiaoyou's powerful features, I suddenly found that Microsoft Cortana, Xiaobing and Sisr were so mentally retarded.

Obviously, for users who cannot afford the "S-1", this is undoubtedly the luckiest blessing in misfortune. Although it is a paid software, it only takes $5 a month to make a cold machine full of vitality, and few people will be stingy with this little money.

For $5, your phone can be changed from manual control to voice control.

Android users were very happy, but Apple fans around the world were unhappy when they saw this news. Why didn’t the iOS version be announced? What about iOS? Ren Hong, did you forget? When will the iOS download section be announced?

Without iOS? Can you bear it?

Just when Ren Hong announced the news, many posts on the XlouS official website forum asked for the launch of iOS version.

Only a mobile phone with Xiaoyou Assistant installed is considered a real smart device. An iPhone worth $899 is not as smart as a $200 Android phone. This is absolutely unbearable. What a joke?

"Shameless Chinese!" Cook couldn't help but curse on the spot when he saw the last news, right in front of him, saying something when facing the reporter? No! But now? Cook found that he underestimated this young Chinese and had already started to attack the iPhone before the product was released. How dirty he is!

Obviously, Ren Hong made the iPhone miserable, so Cook would not believe that the absurd remarks of the iOS version could not be launched for any open source reason. There is an Android version, and the flagship version of XlouS only does not have an iOS version. Sima Zhao's heart is well known to everyone.

Originally, the performance of the "S-1" leads the industry, and its price is no different from that of the iPhone. With Xiaoyou Assistant's attack from front and back, the iPhone has almost no ability to resist.

Just imagine, you only need to spend another $100 to buy a better "S-1", but when the iPhone bought for $800 or even $1,000 is not as smarter and more convenient as an Android phone of $200, how can iPhone users balance their minds?

It can be imagined that this iPhone user will even feel disgusted by this, be ridiculed by his friends, be able to spend money to buy an iPhone 7S-plus and even be reluctant to spend $100 to buy a "S-1".

You can even be ridiculed by some Android parties and show off your voice control function with a $200 product in front of you, and you can't refute it.

Ren Hongkai Xiaoyou Assistant not only attacks the iPhone, but more importantly, it is also rich in huge business opportunities. 70% of the smartphone users around the world come from Android users. This is undoubtedly a huge vault, and 10% of them are an invaluable sky-high wealth.

Moreover, the Android version of Xiaoyou is actually just a castrated version of Xiaoyou in XlouS version. The most important and excellent security and privacy protection functions cannot be enjoyed on Xiaoyou in Android. But even so, the Android version of Xiaoyou Assistant is extremely powerful, and voice control can almost replace all manual control operations.

The most important thing is that this is a newest X-equipped artifact that is even more powerful than the iPhone!

Obviously, when people get used to the high-quality experience and convenience brought by voice control, it will be difficult to leave this application again. At the same time, they can also subtly make these users pay attention to "S-1" and gradually become the potential consumer targets closest to "S-1".

It is definitely a decision to kill three birds with one stone if you can achieve huge revenue, block iPhones, and cultivate potential users for "S-1"!
