Chapter 360: The power of contract phones, huge sales!

Seeing that the Star God Card was completed, Ma Xing could not be happy, he only felt that the crisis was increasing.

In the workplace, you are either a friend or an enemy.

Duan Fangzhou is already the top leader of a major province. If he can make Star God Card a success and go one step further, it would be natural for him to become the vice president.

However, there are a limited number of vice president positions in China Unicom Group. If one Duan Fangzhou is added, one more will have to be removed.

As for who went down, whether it was him, that’s hard to say.

After all, in terms of background, connections, and performance, he ranks at the back among the vice presidents and can easily be eliminated.

What's more, this time, Duan Fangzhou didn't give him any face, making him unpopular both inside and outside.

It is conceivable that once the Star God Card is completed and Duan Fangzhou takes over, he will basically be out of office.

Ma Xing was sweating profusely. He didn't want to sit there and wait for death. He turned his eyes and immediately came up with a plan:

“Chairman, presidents, and vice presidents, what I object to is not the Star God Card, but the fact that this kind of card is in a province!”

“???” Everyone was stunned.

"!!!" Duan Fangzhou's expression changed drastically: "This guy is not holding back his fart!"

The chairman became interested: "Tell me more about it."

Ma Xing spoke decisively: "Xingshen Card can indeed bring us a large number of new users and drive business growth. However, its traffic and calls are available nationwide. Package services are also provided nationwide. Therefore, Xingshen Card should not be owned by Shandong Province alone. Instead, it should be opened up to all provinces in the country."

Duan Fangzhou's mouth twitched: "..."

Damn, this old man is so cruel.

If Star God Card can’t be stopped anymore, they must divide up Star God Card and share his credit!

Just like the previous China Mobile unlimited card, it was launched by Guangdong Province, so it is unique to Guangdong Province, and the number is also owned by Guangdong Province.

Similarly, the Xingshen Card was jointly launched by Shandong Province and Xingyi Technology, and the number is also owned by Shandong Province, so the credit will also be attributed to Duan Fangzhou.

But now, Ma Xing proposed to divide it up.

Even if he doesn't die, he will be skinned alive!

After all, once it is divided among the provinces across the country, the credit will be divided, which means that Duan Fangzhou has worked in vain and is making wedding dresses for others!

The top leaders of other provinces will also be grateful to Vice President Ma Xing.

It has to be said that Ma Xing is very skilled at making things happen with just a flip of his hand.

Okay, Lao Deng, you are so cruel.

Duan Fangzhou took note of this.

The chairman became interested: "Fang Zhou, what do you think about this?"

Duan Fangzhou took a deep breath and said, "As Vice President Ma said before, the model of Xingshen Card is indeed good, but it is also too innovative. It can be said to be an opportunity, but it also has risks. If, as Vice President Ma said, it is fully liberalized and released to all provinces across the country, once problems arise, the consequences will be disastrous. It is better to start in Shandong Province and treat it as a pilot. This way, even if there are problems, the risks are controllable."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

They understood Duan Fangzhou's words, but they also knew that behind the high-sounding words, he still did not want to share the results.

Human nature.

If the achievements you have worked so hard for are shared with others, no one will be able to accept it.

But if that's all, the reason is not sufficient.

Sure enough, Ma Xing said with a smile: "Although there are risks, they are not big. We can try separately. Mr. Duan, you are not thinking of eating alone, are you?"

Duan Fangzhou frowned slightly and said, "To be honest, this is the result of a discussion with Director Wang of Xingyi Technology. Even if we really want to separate, we have to discuss it with Director Wang first."

"Discuss with Mr. Wang?" Ma Xing smiled. "We are China Unicom, one of the three major operators. Do we still need to discuss with a company? Do we still need to listen to him? Are we giving him face?"

"Boss Duan, you are so servile to a company. I think you are the one with the broken butt!"

Duan Fangzhou frowned and sighed: "I know why China Unicom is not developing well. It's because of the bad apple like Ma Xing. Why? Are the three major operators so high and mighty? Don't they care about customers?"

"If it was an ordinary customer, it would be fine, but do you dare to underestimate a top customer like Xingyi Technology?"

"Vice President Ma, are you still living in the past and thinking that domestic mobile phone brands are not worth mentioning?"

"You must know that in the domestic market, Xingyi mobile phones have crushed Apple!"

"In front of Apple, you are submissive and begging for cooperation."

"You're here at Xingyi Technology, and you still want to act like a big shot? And you're still so high and mighty? Are you crazy?"

"Luckily, it was me who was cooperating with Director Wang. If it was you, Director Wang would have turned around and moved immediately!"

"You are such a person that you can become a vice president. I wonder how many customers have been driven away by you and turned to China Mobile! And you still say you are not an undercover agent of China Mobile?"

"I..." Ma Xing's face turned pale. He was about to refute, but was interrupted by Duan Fangzhou again:

"There's no such heartless idiot as you on the mobile side!"

"Once China Mobile and Xingyi Technology reach a cooperation and launch China Mobile Xingshen Card, Gaode Card, and Ele.me Card, China Mobile's already leading number of users will increase dramatically again. China Unicom will never be able to catch up with China Mobile in this lifetime!"

"Vice President Ma! Is this what you wanted to see?"

"I..." Ma Xing broke out in a cold sweat, but was unable to refute.

An old stubborn man like him is obviously a step behind in changing his mindset.

When domestic products rise comprehensively, even when they defeat international brands, people will still think that international brands are powerful and domestic brands are rubbish.

After kneeling for so long, I couldn't stand up straight.

Add to that the official airs, and the result is predictable.

The chairman saw everything, but he became more and more disappointed.

It is human nature to fight for power.

Duan Fangzhou is the type of person who has ambition, ability and the ability to achieve results.

Everyone likes this kind of capable person.

But Ma Xing is the kind of person who has ambition but no ability, can't produce results, only knows how to stir up trouble, even puts on airs, and takes advantage of others...

It's just a termite, not many people can stand it.

The chairman said earnestly: "What Mr. Duan said makes sense. As one of the three major operators, we are also service providers. We should serve our customers instead of putting on airs and putting pressure on our customers."

"For companies like Xingyi Technology, which have absolute capital, we must treat them well."

"Take Xingshen Card for example. Without China Unicom, China Mobile and China Telecom will all be vying for cooperation."

"But without the Star God Card, we Unicom will lose an opportunity to rise!"

"Old Duan, the Xingshen Card will be placed in Shandong Province as you and Director Wang agreed. It will be a national package with national data traffic, national calls, and no roaming."

Duan Fangzhou was in a good mood, as the Star God Card was finally saved!

There is no need to share the credit for the great achievements you have negotiated with others, allowing other competitors to reap the benefits without any effort.

But it’s not okay to be stingy.

The chairman gave in, and he also knew how to advance and retreat:

"Thank you for the support, Chairman. The Xingshen Card will be placed in Shandong Province. I will never let the Chairman down. However, Chairman Wang and I will discuss the Gaode Card and Ele.me Card to see if they can be distributed to the provinces and let them operate."

"There is also the China Unicom contract phone of Xingyi. Our Shandong Province has placed an order of more than 30 units for more than 70 billion yuan at one time. The goods will arrive in two days. The store has already started pre-sales. The market performance is very good. I wonder if brothers in other provinces would like to introduce them together. If possible, I am willing to act as a matchmaker!"

The chairman's eyes lit up, Old Duan knew how to handle things.

The Star God Card, God Card, and Ele.me Card were all discussed by Duan Fangzhou and Wang Yi, and should be Duan Fangzhou's achievements.

But Duan Fangzhou also knew that it was unrealistic to eat alone.

Just keep the most important Star God Card and eat it all by yourself.

The Ele.me cards and Gaode cards are distributed to provinces across the country, ensuring that everyone benefits.

In this way, whether it is the senior management of the group or the senior management of other provinces, they have no objection and they still have to do him a favor.

He knew when to advance and when to retreat, so well that the chairman couldn't help but look at him with admiration, thinking to himself, "This old guy is good. He has the potential to join the headquarters."

He simply nodded and said, "Very good, Lao Duan, you can consider the overall situation, very good! Let's do as you said. Xingshen Card belongs to Shandong Province, Ele.me Card and Gaode Card will be promoted in all provinces, and Xingyi mobile phone contract phones will also be promoted in all provinces."

"Yes!" Everyone responded one after another.

Duan Fangzhou changed the subject and said, "There is one more thing. AutoNavi and Ele.me cards have been distributed to various provinces, and the data packages and call packages have been reduced from the previous national packages to provincial packages. This is considered to have lowered the service standards, so Mr. Wang will reduce the package fees or increase the package quantity. The commission is expected to increase by 10% as well."

These words are meant to help Wang Yi gain profits!

The package has been changed, and the national package has been reduced to a provincial package. If the price is not reduced and the quantity is not increased, and Wang Yi gets more share, Mr. Wang will not be able to explain it!

I can only say that Duan Fangzhou is really good at doing things and is thoughtful in every aspect.

The chairman nodded and said, "That's as it should be. You can discuss the details with Director Wang. It's best not to reduce the package price, but increase the quantity!"

For operators, they would rather provide more packages than reduce fees.

"Okay, Chairman, I think Director Wang will be back in the capital tomorrow. I will talk to him in person then."

"it is good."

After the meeting, everyone else left.

Only Ma Xing's nose is not a nose, and his face is not a face.

In this fight, Duan Fangzhou won a great victory, while Ma Xing was in a difficult situation.

The next day, Wang Yi, who had just returned to the imperial capital, met Duan Fangzhou at Xingyi Technology Park.

"Director Wang, the contract phone is already in progress. China Unicom has made all the preparations. After the Xingyi phone arrives tomorrow, it will be immediately distributed throughout the province."

"Good, Mr. Duan is very efficient!" Wang Yi was also surprised.

I thought these kinds of companies were known for their inefficiency, and it would take at least half a month to get a contract phone done.

Unexpectedly, Duan Fangzhou caught the criminal personally and dealt with the case in just a few days.

It's really efficient.

"However, there is a problem with the mobile phone card." Duan Fangzhou changed the subject.

Wang Yi frowned slightly: "What's wrong? Headquarters doesn't approve it?"

For this kind of package, provinces and regions have certain authority, but it ultimately has to be approved by headquarters.

If the headquarters does not approve it, everything will be in vain.

Duan Fangzhou sighed, "It's not that it won't pass, it just needs some changes. There's nothing wrong with the Star God Card, so just promote it as we discussed."

Wang Yi nodded. Duan Fangzhou continued, "However, Gaode Card and Ele.me Card want to share the revenue among provinces and make them into provincial packages. After all, they are not happy if we take over such a large market."

Wang Yi smiled and said, "That's no problem. Ele.me riders and AutoNavi drivers usually operate within the province or even the city, so provincial cards are enough."

"It's good that Director Wang understands." Duan Fangzhou breathed a sigh of relief: "But since it has become a provincial card, the service scope has been reduced. We can increase the service flow!"

"The original 1200 minutes of nationwide calls on AutoNavi Card have been changed to 500 minutes of nationwide calls + 1000 minutes of intra-provincial calls. The 200MB nationwide data traffic has been changed to 500MB of intra-provincial data traffic. In addition, AutoNavi Navigation and AutoNavi Taxi APP offer free data traffic and caller ID. After exceeding the limit, it will be 166 cent per minute. The monthly rent remains 20, but the commission for Xingyi Technology has been increased from 30% to %!"

Wang Yi understood what Duan Fangzhou meant.

As the whole country becomes the whole province, this aspect has shrunk. So we can increase the call duration and the data traffic to make up for it.

As for the package charges, they seem to have not changed, but Wang Yi's increase was 10%, which is equivalent to a disguised price reduction.

And this price reduction was given directly to Wang Yi in the form of commission, which was equivalent to giving Wang Yi the initiative.

Whether it is subsidies to AutoNavi car owners or kept by Xingyi Technology as operating profit, Wang Yi has the final say.

All I can say is that Duan Fangzhou is a very good person and there is nothing wrong with him.

Wang Yi nodded: "Okay, Gao Deka will arrange it this way."

Duan Fangzhou breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"As for the Ele.me card, the original 1200 minutes of nationwide calls have been changed to 500 minutes of nationwide calls + 1000 minutes of intra-province calls. The 200MB nationwide data traffic has been changed to 500MB of intra-province general data traffic. In addition, the Ele.me APP has free data traffic and comes with caller ID. After exceeding the limit, it will be 126 cent per minute. The package price is still , and the commission has been changed to %!"

"no problem!"

Wang Yi had no objection. He would subsidize the commissions to the riders and Gaode online car-hailing drivers anyway.

However, this subsidy is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and everyone receives the same subsidy.

Instead, they will be divided according to performance.

Those with good performance can get a 50% subsidy, which means they only need to pay 60-80 yuan for phone bills each month.

Those who work for three days and rest for two days only get a subsidy of 5%-10%, and their phone bills still cost more than a hundred yuan.

"In addition, the 50 yuan bonus for each new user promoted by Xingyi Technology's channels remains unchanged."

Duan Fangzhou continued, "I also proposed at the headquarters that China Unicom and Xingyi Technology deepen their cooperation. The group had no objection and asked other provinces and regions to launch Xingyi mobile phone contracts. Next, while promoting Deka and Ele.me cards, the provinces will also purchase a large number of Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro!"

Wang Yi was in a good mood. Duan Fangzhou did a great job.

In Shandong province alone, even though the population is over 1 million, the total orders for Xphone 1 and Xphone 70pro contract phones from China Unicom totaled units, which would take at least two to three months to sell.

But with the participation of other provinces, the sales of Xingyi mobile phone contract phones have increased.

Throughout April, Xphone 1 is expected to exceed million units again.

As for the Xphone 1pro which was recently launched, its sales volume is even higher and there is hope that it will exceed six million units.

Of course, the sales volume of Xingyi mobile phones is calculated based on sales to users, or even based on activation volume.

Unlike some brands, which sell two million units a month, one and a half million are piled up in dealer warehouses and channels, and only five hundred thousand are sold to users.

Wang Yi doesn't do anything fancy, he just goes by actual sales volume.

For example, if Shandong Unicom placed an order for 70 units at one time, the sales volume cannot be directly calculated as . It depends on how many were sold this month.

Now with the support of nationwide Unicom contract phones, the sales of Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro will increase dramatically.

Apple's sales will be severely impacted.

After all, Apple is also a China Unicom contract phone, and its sales in the China Unicom channel account for a large proportion.

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Mr. Duan, you have done a great job. I will not say any more polite words. From now on, you will always be a friend of Xingyi Technology. Even if you can't stay in China Unicom, come to me!"

"Hahaha, Mr. Wang's words are enough!" Duan Fangzhou laughed.

Wang Yi also changed the subject: "Of course, it is better for you to stay in China Unicom. Especially since you have become the vice president of China Unicom."

"Don't mention it. The one who tried every means to obstruct the Star God Card this time was a vice president named Ma! Damn it!"

Duan Fangzhou gets very angry when he talks about this...

Wang Yi was speechless after hearing this: "Fortunately, you are the head of Shandong Unicom. If it was someone like Ma Xing, I would have given up cooperation long ago."

"Alas! Whether it's China Unicom, China Telecom, or even China Mobile, there are always people like Ma Xing. There's nothing we can do."

Wang Yi agreed very much.

Even in Xingyi Technology, there are such idiots.

He has neither outstanding ability nor outstanding performance, but he is arrogant and puts his own interests first in everything, regardless of the overall situation or the company...

This kind of person is a black sheep!
It's not just the employees that are harmed, it's the entire company as well!
It seems that Xingyi Technology also needs to strengthen the character assessment of its management team.

Wang Yi had a plan in mind. After sending Duan Fangzhou away, he found the head of the inspection department:

“Optimize the internal anonymous reporting system and the management ethics assessment mechanism. Once reported, any misconduct, suppression of subordinates, or even unspoken rules will be investigated immediately, and once discovered, severe punishment will be imposed!”

Xingyi Technology is developing very fast now. Meiyu had previously conducted secret inspections and found many corrupt officials, mainly those who were involved in corruption.

There must be a similar situation at Xingyi Technology now.

However, what Wang Yi wants to fight is not only corruption, but also black sheep like Vice President Ma who suppresses subordinates, engages in vicious competition, and damages the interests of the company.

"Yes, Chairman, I'll arrange it right away."

Wang Yi waved his hand and the other party retreated.

Then he called Song Si Ning again: "Si Ning, pick some reliable people from Mayu to secretly supervise Xingyi Technology..."

Years ago, Wang Yi used the Inspection Department of Xingyi Technology to secretly inspect Mayu.

Now it is just right to use Mayu’s Inspection Department to inspect Xingyi Technology.

Only through this kind of cross-inspection can problems be identified.

As for the internal self-inspection, no one can tell how much water there is in it.

"Okay, Chairman." Song Sining responded immediately and understood what Wang Yi meant.

"In the future, this kind of thing must be normalized. Although we can't eliminate all borers, we will catch as many as possible."

"Yes!"

China Unicom acted quickly, especially in Shandong Province.

On April 4, Xphone 7 and Xphone 1pro arrived at China Unicom’s warehouse in Shandong Province and were sold out on the same day.

On April 4, all China Unicom business halls in Shandong Province were already filled with Xphone 8 and Xphone 1pro.

Many consumers who walk into the store are surprised to find that the counter that originally sold iPhone 4s has become a counter for Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro.

The POP advertisements for iPhone 4s at the door have also been replaced with Xphone 1pro endorsed by Leo!

The first iPhone contract packages recommended by employees became Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro.

Unless the user must buy iPhone 4s, the iPhone 4s contract package will be recommended.

There is no other reason. The sales of iPhone 4s are poor and it is difficult to promote. It is not as good as Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro.

A shopping guide earns money based on performance and gets commissions. There is no need to be hard on yourself and insist on having an iPhone 4s.

It can be said that everything changed overnight.

The iPhone 4s China Unicom contract phone suddenly went from being the main phone to being the backup phone.

However, Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro China Unicom contract phones have become the real kings.

Not surprisingly, the Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro, which were already hot-selling, now have contract phone discounts. Deposit phone credits and get a free phone, or buy a phone and get free phone credits. The discounts have been greatly increased and sales have begun to surge.

Especially for the Xphone 1, which has been on the market for more than four months, its online hot-selling period has passed. If it wants to have another big hit online, there is no other good strategy except price cuts and promotions.

But this is unrealistic. Competitors’ products are so poorly made that they are no match for the Xphone 1. It is impossible for Wang Yi to drastically cut prices.

But it’s different offline. As long as there are enough stores and enough advertisements, offline sales can still surge.

This is the strategy used by blue and green companies.

It’s because offline consumers are not sensitive to parameters and cost performance. They don’t even understand them.

They only recognize brands and believe in the sales guides’ lies.

With the China Unicom contract phone, Xingyi mobile phones now have tens of thousands of offline physical stores!

Coupled with the help of shopping guides, sales naturally skyrocketed!
In addition, Leo's advertisements can be seen everywhere, which can also greatly increase sales.

Even if some offline consumers don’t know Leo, the eye-catching words “International Superstar” next to him are still very shocking.

Advertisements for the Xingyi mobile phone are played on loop on televisions in many business halls.

In addition, as Xingyi Technology continues to grow, its brand awareness is increasing day by day.

After seeing such a series of combined punches, consumers are confused and can only pay without hesitation.

In just three days, 10 Xingyi mobile phone contract phones were sold!

You have to know that this is just the sales volume of contract phones in one province for three days!
It's just terrifying.

This made Duan Fangzhou very happy. He had been worried that it would take two or three months to sell 70 Xingyi mobile phones ordered at one time.

Now it seems that it will be sold out in more than a month, and we may have to continue placing orders.

Seeing that the Xingyi mobile phone contract phones in Shandong Province were selling so well, other provinces could no longer sit still and decisively accelerated the progress of the Xingyi contract phones!
Even the top leaders of the provinces and regions could not sit still and personally urged the matter to be handled.

As a result, the cooperation that would have taken three or four days to finalize was completed in two days.

The process that originally took ten days to transfer payment and distribute goods was now completed within five days.

Without any surprise, large orders came in one after another.

For Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro, some provinces placed orders of at one time, just like Shandong Province.

Some provinces have fewer people, only 200,000 or 300,000.

But with so many provinces all placing orders, the total number of Xphone 1 orders exceeded 500 million units.

Xphone 1pro orders have exceeded 300 million units!

Wang Yi was stunned by the sudden increase in the order worth eight million.

Zhu Changlin, who was originally visiting Visionox, had to change his itinerary and fly directly to BYD.

There is no way, the orders have exploded again!

Zhu Changlin had to go to BYD to watch over the screws.

What can Wang Yi say about this?
I can only say that I am in pain and happy at the same time.
