Chapter 703 Stealing the Limelight From the Three Major Foreign Companies
Finally waited until the end of the college entrance examination.
An Rong had previously planned a vacation plan for more than half a year, but when it was time to put it into practice, she realized that due to the bad weather, the plan was in danger of being ruined.
Beijiang has been raining continuously for a month, and occasionally when the rainstorm pours, you can even see fish and shrimps on the road.
Jiangdong Province has also been raining continuously for more than a month. Jinling's flood fighting and rescue situation is particularly severe. The water level has reached new highs again and again, which has affected the hearts of the people in the province.
Looking at the whole of China, not only the Yangtze River Basin and the Huaihe River Basin are flooded, but even the Nenjiang River, Songhua River and other river basins have fallen into a rainy season.
Teams of people's soldiers were urgently sent to the front line of flood fighting and rescue.
Groups of journalists went deep into the front line of flood fighting without fear of difficulties and obstacles, just to grasp the first-hand danger data in time.
Every day, the news scrolls and broadcasts the water levels and dangers in various places, which almost touches the hearts of the people of the whole country.
In such a severe situation, an unexpected piece of news attracted the attention of most people in front of the TV.
On July 10th, Apocalypse Investment announced the establishment of a charitable fund association—Tianqi Fund. The first donation was RMB 100 million specially supported by Yuanqi Technology’s Lotus mobile phone!
It is reported that the donation will be used for flood fighting and rescue supplies and relief all over the country, and escort for the great victory of flood fighting and rescue!
A stone stirs up a thousand waves.
My God, a donation of 100 million yuan is a big deal.
For a while, the common people in front of the TV all paid great attention to Yuanqi Technology and Lotus mobile phones because of this news.
Not only that, but this move also ignited the unparalleled enthusiasm of the people across the country for "when one party is in trouble, all parties support".
As the first donor since the flood this summer, Yuanqi Technology has completely become the darling of the media everywhere, and even the Lotus mobile phone has been frequently exposed.
Its effect is even stronger than when the Lotus mobile phone advertisement was first launched.
The attention paid to Lotus mobile phones has even surpassed that of the three new mobile phones from foreign companies uncharacteristically.
After turning off the TV, Wu Tao stood up and stretched comfortably.
Seeing that various TV stations have reproduced this donation news one after another, once again binding Yuanqi Technology and Lotus mobile phones with family and country feelings, the effect produced should be more cost-effective than advertising for 100 million yuan.
At the same time, Jinling Ericsson Panda Branch.
Before leaving get off work, Pete frowned when he received the sales data from his assistant for the day.
"What's going on here? Could it be a mistake? How come the distribution volume has dropped by more than half compared to yesterday?" Pete's first reaction was that he thought he had made a mistake.
After all, he tried to resign years ago, so he pointed to this Ericsson T10 to make a comeback.
Moreover, when Ericsson's new T10 was first released, it did have a very good market performance. Although it was left behind by the Nokia 3210 of the same period, it was at least on par with Motorola's new finished products and went hand in hand.
But now, in less than a week, daily sales have fallen off a cliff.
Is it unreasonable? There must be a mistake, a mistake!
Almost at the same time, Smith, who was in charge of Motorola's China branch, also discovered something was wrong.
The bearded Yankee immediately yelled and asked the secretary to call an emergency meeting of the marketing department specialists.
As for getting off work? The new mobile phone is about to encounter Waterloo again, everyone is going to have fun, what work is left!
Unlike Ericsson and Motorola, which were kept in the dark, the person in charge of Nokia's China region immediately noticed the donation news of Yuanqi Technology and the sharp rise in the popularity of Lotus mobile phones.
Under the ebb and flow, the Nokia 3210, which has always been far ahead in the Chinese market, began to be affected in the afternoon.
Distributors from all over the country called one after another, requesting to suspend shipments.
Is it the miraculous effect of donations?
The person in charge of the Huaxia region decisively reported the situation to the Asia-Pacific headquarters.
Li Zhaoji, who sits in the Asia-Pacific region of Nokia, immediately made a decision to follow suit. Only after applying to the Finnish headquarters, the result was only a donation of 5 million RMB.
This amount of money can't even be seen if it is thrown out. Li Zhaoji looked at Huaxia's continuous donation news and data with bitterness on his face.
If things go on like this, even the 3210, which the headquarters has spent years developing, will probably be cool.
So Li Zhaoji once again asked the headquarters with emotion and reason, asking for an increase in the donation amount, so as to increase the friendliness of Huaxia users.
As a result, it was not until the next day that the headquarters replied: 6 million, and no more.
Li Zhaoji was so angry that he dropped the mouse on the ground on the spot.
With such a method, how can you compete with other Lotus mobile phones? !
Foreigners are simply too self righteous!
On the evening of the second day when news of a 100 million donation continued to ferment, Wu Tao woke up from a deep nap, his arms numb from the pillow in his arms.
Since the end of the college entrance examination, An Rong has hardly returned to her home.
The two of them stayed together from morning till night, and it can be regarded as making up for the 'foreign language courses' that were delayed during this period.
So much so that Wu Tao slept all afternoon, and when he woke up at this moment, he could still feel the faint pantothenic acid in his waist.
He raised his eyes and saw that the light rain was still falling outside the window, and suddenly even the last trace of desire to get up disappeared.
Just then, the phone by the bed rang.
With a groan, An Rong turned over, wrapped in a thin quilt, flipped to the other side and continued to sleep, so that her waist and long legs were exposed without knowing it.
Just looking at it is terrible.
Wu Tao was about to touch it, but the phone was still vibrating persistently.
In desperation, Xiao Zixia picked it up, and Xiao Zixia's excited voice almost broke through the phone, and went straight to the eardrums: "Boss, good news, the daily sales volume of Lotus 8810 reached the top again, surpassing Nokia's new 5310, as well as new phones from Motorola and Ericsson!"
"This is the first time that the old mobile phone has surpassed the new mobile phone of the same period and won the first place in shipments!"
"So fast?" Even though he was mentally prepared, Wu Tao never expected that the effect would come so quickly.
It's almost immediate!
It seems that the money spent is really TM worth it.
Xiao Zixia's voice continued: "Not only that, the boss, many dealers have called to pay attention, when will our new main mobile phone this year be launched. Look, Director Leng, do you want to hurry up?"
Hearing this, Wu Tao decisively interrupted: "No, don't rush! Work slowly and meticulously. After all, Director Leng is in charge of the research and development of new mobile phone products for the first time. Don't put too much pressure on her. Besides, our new release is already later than the three major foreign companies. I don't care if it lasts longer."
"...The key is to do a good job with the new mobile phone products, and not to smash the Lotus mobile phone brand!"
Xiao Zixia also stopped insisting: "Yes, I understand, boss!"
