Financial freedom starts with a monthly income of XNUMX

In today's domestic mobile phone market, Apple's mobile phone sales are declining, while Huawei's mobile phone sales are growing rapidly. The status of old mobile phone giants such as Xiaomi, OPPO, and vivo is extremely stable.

However, if Gao Yuan plans to enter the high-end market, he mainly needs to deal with the impact brought by Warwick and Apple phones, while also preventing Xiaomi, Oppo and other phones from muddying the waters.

None of these companies can be easily dealt with, and Gao Yuan even has to guard against them joining forces.

A mobile phone is not like a car. If we really want to compete with it, it will be a bit difficult in the early stages.

It would be troublesome if they suddenly stabbed you in the back when your distant mobile phone was competing with other mobile phones.

"What about the other performance of the phone? How are they?" Gao Yuan asked.

"The battery life of Yuanfang mobile phones is about three times that of the longest standby mobile phones on the market. As for chips, we still use foreign chips. Most other parts are assembled."

"But I am confident that by the middle of this year, 90% of the components can be produced completely independently. By the end of the year, 100% of the components, except for chips, can be produced independently."

Li Wei has this confidence, the only thing he needs to worry about may be chips.

Chip technology is too difficult. Even the chips developed by Warwick Company are far behind those developed abroad.

"Don't worry about the chips. I have already started planning and will announce it to the public by the middle of this year. You also need to work harder and strive to produce all the components independently by the middle of this year."

Gao Yuan instructed: "If necessary, we can spend money on mergers and acquisitions."

Once parts and components, especially key parts, are in the hands of others, it is like having your throat strangled by others.

In case the cooperation breaks down, they will hold back the shipment of parts.

Then the distant mobile phone will be put in a passive position.

"Mr. Gao, you actually developed additional chips?"

Li Wei seemed to have discovered a new world.

I didn’t expect that Mr. Gao had already made plans so early.

How many things are there that he doesn't know?

Mr. Gao really gave him a big surprise.

"Hahaha, it just hasn't been announced to the public." Gao Yuan laughed, "Don't ask around, just do your own thing. As for the first mobile phone developed, leave it with me. I'll use it at any time. If I find any problems with the phone during use, I'll notify you as soon as possible."

Gao Yuan intends to look at this phone from the consumer's perspective.

After producing some more samples, Gao Yuan plans to give them to his relatives and friends first.

Of course, it’s not free. They must write an experience review every week.

During the experience, you cannot just praise the phone and write about its shortcomings.

After the conversation, Li Wei left happily.

With Gao Yuan's promise, he became more confident in Yuanfang Mobile.

As soon as this phone is launched on the market, it will definitely sell out.

On the same day, the situation of Yuanfang mobile phones was also released on all major accounts of Yuanfang Group.

However, they did not announce the model of the phone, nor its performance or photos. It just stated that Yuanfang plans to enter the mobile phone industry.

In less than an hour, the video received over a million likes and over ten million views.

"Oh my god, Yuanfang Group has actually entered the mobile phone market."

"Will Yuanfang Group also have a full range of products in the future, including Yuanfang mobile phones, Yuanfang tablets, and Yuanfang computers?"

"I admire Mr. Gao very much. I don't know when I can buy the Yuanfang phone. As soon as the phone is released, I will order one as soon as possible."

"According to Yuanfang Group's long-standing practice, the performance of this phone will definitely be explosive, and the price is also very affordable."

"..."

Many netizens chose to support Yuanfang Group.

But at the same time, some big Vs and bloggers on the market also released videos to raise doubts in order to attract traffic and fans.

They felt that Yuanfang Group was lucky enough to cross over into the car business, and it would be impossible for it to succeed in making mobile phones.

To support their claims, these bloggers also cited a number of examples.

In the face of these bloggers' questions, Yuanfang Group has not responded.

This is also what Gao Yuan requires.

Those bloggers are just trying to attract attention. There is no need to bother with them.

When Yuanfang mobile phones come out, those netizens will be able to scold them to death without Gao Yuan having to do anything.

The top priority is to produce the mobile phone as soon as possible, and after the mobile phone system is stable, hold a press conference to release the Yuanfang mobile phone.

"Mr. Gao!"

The secretary came in and said, "There is a guest who claims to be Mr. Mou who wants to see you."

"We were going to just send him away, but he said he was once the richest man in the country."

The secretary was a little unsure, so he came to ask Gao Yuan for his opinion.

The richest man in the country?

Last name Mou?

At the beginning, Gao Yuan didn't remember who this person was.

After all, there has never been a person with the surname Mou on the rich list in recent years.

So Gao Yuan kept pushing the time forward, and found that in the 1990s, there was a big boss named Mou.

This big man's life is also legendary.

One of his most classic deeds was exchanging a trainload of canned food for an airplane.

The most famous thing he did was to blast a big hole in the Himalayas, allowing warm and humid air currents from the Indian Ocean to flow in directly, turning China's originally arid northwest region into a land of fish and rice.

The most boastful thing is to invest 15 billion yuan in the Northeast region to build it into a small Hong Kong island.

Remember, that was the 1990s.

What did 15 billion mean in that era?
In the end, Lao Mouzi was suspected of fraud and other crimes and was thrown into prison.

Judging from the time, he should have been released from prison a few years ago.

However, decades in prison have made this once richest man no longer fit in with today's world.

Simply put, it can't keep up with the development of today's era.

His former younger brother has become a famous tycoon in the business world and will no longer recognize him.

Once upon a time, it was as glorious as it could be, but now it is as miserable as it could be.

"Let him in."

Gao Yuan said.

He wanted to see why this former richest man came to see him.

If he still intends to cheat, it won't be too late to kick him out. Not long after, an old man in a leather coat walked in.

Although the years have left wrinkles on his face, his temperament still exists.

As expected of the former richest man, he still maintained his dignity even after being imprisoned.

"Boss Gao!"

As soon as they met, Lao Mouzi took the lead to come forward.

Although he is old, he is still in good health, with a ruddy complexion and a voice as loud as a bell.

"Mr. Mou, I've only heard of your deeds before, but I didn't expect to meet you in person today." Gao Yuan said politely.

If the development of the times is like a torrent, then Lao Mouzi is one of the first people to cross the river by feeling the stones.

He is a pioneer in the development of modern business in China and a godfather-level figure.

Despite his many criticisms, he is still a senior.

"Hahaha, there's nothing to talk about in front of President Gao." Lao Mouzi waved his hand, "The current Yuanfang Group, whether in terms of influence or status, is beyond my reach."

"I came to see Mr. Gao today just to chat with him, nothing else."

After listening to Lao Mouzi's words, Gao Yuan was thoughtful and kept it in mind.

Generally speaking, when you say you don’t have any other intentions, there will definitely be requests in the following conversation.

“It’s an honor to chat with the seniors.”

Gao Yuan smiled and invited Lao Mouzi to sit on the sofa and started chatting, "Is Mr. Mou also in Hangzhou recently?"

"I'm in Sichuan Province. I came here in my Maybach. The Maybach is downstairs."

Lao Mouzi spoke.

As to whether the car was his own or rented, Gao Yuan was not sure.

However, Lao Mouzi said this probably to show that he still has strength, for he was worried that Gao Yuan would underestimate him.

If Gao Yuan continued the conversation along these lines, he would probably fall into Lao Mouzi's trap.

Don't underestimate these old guys. The fact that they were able to keep countless dignitaries in the dark and fool them around is enough to prove that they have high emotional intelligence and like to set traps for others.

"Why not take a plane? The distance from Sichuan Province to Hangzhou is not short. It will take at least two or three days to drive there." Gao Yuan said.

Lao Mouzi was stunned, obviously not expecting Gao Yuan to bring up this topic.

This was somewhat different from what he had expected.

Could it be that Gao Yuan guessed what he was thinking?
Is this young man so cunning?
Lao Mouzi's face returned to normal immediately. "Flying is too fast. It's better to drive so that you can appreciate the beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland. But Mr. Gao, don't you think it's a bit strange that I can still afford a Maybach with my current status?"

"Hahaha, what's so strange about this? After all, you were once the richest man, how could you not leave some assets?" Gao Yuan was not fooled at all.

Lao Mouzi shook his head. "It seems that I still underestimated you. You must have had some skills to lead the company to where it is today. It's not as good as my time. Among those who can make money, some are lucky."

“That kind of person has no ability, but has accumulated a lot of wealth in a short period of time purely because he is standing at the forefront of the trend.”

"After I got out of prison, I investigated these people. Most of them were bankrupt. They don't have the ability to own so much wealth. In the end, all this wealth will flow back into society. Things change over time. Even the most successful people will eventually fall into poverty."

Lao Mouzi was filled with emotion.

"Mr. Mou, did you come to me just to complain?" Gao Yuan said, "If you just want to complain, Mr. Mou may have come to the wrong place. This is the chairman's office, not a consulting room."

"Hahaha, Mr. Gao, don't be in a hurry. It won't take up much time to express your feelings." Lao Mouzi talked about the purpose of his visit. "I want to find a job here."

"I wonder if your company is still in need of consultants. I think I can do the job and the monthly salary is only this amount."

Lao Mouzi made the number “two”.

"Two hundred million?"

"Mr. Gao, do you think I'm worth this amount? Even if I am, are you willing to give me 200 million?"

"To be honest, I'm not willing to give even 20 million."

"Two million!"

Lao Mouzi quoted his price, "Two million per month, plus annual salary, a total of thirty million."

You really dare to show your teeth.

Some middle and senior management in Gaoyuan Company do not receive such high annual salary.

"Then what can Mr. Mou bring to me?" Gao Yuan asked back.

"I heard that Mr. Gao is producing mobile phones, and I can offer some suggestions." Lao Mouzi said.

"Mobile phones today are different from those back then. Times have changed. Moreover, business wars today are far more complicated than those in your era, Mr. Mou."

Gao Yuan said.

The business war in Lao Mouzi's era was actually very simple. On the one hand, the official background was used to suppress the other party.

On the other hand, they mainly rely on robbing and fighting with real guns and knives.

This is how the earliest express delivery companies started.

If you want to be the head of a courier company in a region, but you don’t have some capable people under you, the courier company will be snatched away.

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish, and the same is true for business wars." Lao Mouzi said, "I don't really understand the current technology, but I understand human nature. During my many years in prison, I spent most of my time analyzing human nature."

"Business wars are ultimately fought between people. As long as you understand human nature and the general trend, you can't lose."

Gao Yuan became interested and asked, "Then how do you think Yuanfang Mobile can get out of this predicament and crush other mobile phone manufacturers when it is released?"

“This is a trade secret.”

Lao Mouzi smiled slightly.

"Then we won't talk any more. Let's get the guests out!"

Gao Yuan stood up and decided not to continue the conversation.

Lao Mouzi kept keeping people in suspense. His time was limited and he couldn't keep wasting it here.

"Wait, Mr. Gao, why are you so anxious?"

Lao Mouzi said, "I do have a way. First of all, the two mobile phones, Vivo and Oppo, I have met their boss Lao Duan, he is a ruthless man, and several products he made in the early years were successful."

"But he has a big flaw, which is that he immigrated abroad. We can use this as a breakthrough point to inspire the people's enthusiasm to support domestic products."

"Within three months, the sales of his two mobile phones will plummet. The most important thing is that Lao Duan has lived abroad for many years. To be honest, he has little understanding of the domestic market."

"As for the people in charge of these two mobile phones, we will attack them separately. The most important thing is to sow discord between them and Lao Duan, forcing Lao Duan to return from abroad and take charge of the situation again."

"Once Old Duan comes back, we can plan intentionally but unintentionally, and our chance of winning will be 90%."

"As for Xiaomi mobile phones, I have investigated Lei Jun. He likes to brag, but he is very serious. I heard that a wealthy man in China made an appointment with Lei Jun to fight him ten years ago."

"As a result, Lei Bushi was not moral and actually brought seven or eight people with him. He also asked someone to study the evacuation and escape routes. This shows that this guy is bold and cautious. Dealing with such a person is the most troublesome. However, we can seize this advantage of his boldness and cautiousness and give him a head-on blow. I will not talk about the specific operations in this regard. If Mr. Gao is willing to hire me, I will do my best to give him advice."

"As for Huawei mobile phones, they have been receiving mixed reviews over the past period of time..." (End of this chapter)
