Financial freedom starts with a monthly income of XNUMX

Chapter 432: Playing a public opinion war with me?

The content on major short video platforms is diverse, and bloggers have different opinions.

Generally speaking, some financial bloggers who are over 40 years old and those who are trying to attract attention are more supportive of Lao Duan.

In their era, Lao Duan was a well-deserved celebrity, standing at the forefront and able to call the shots.

What's more, Lao Duan did spend a lot of marketing expenses.

Most young people spend money like Gao Yuan and Lei Jun. Both Xiaomi Group and Yuanfang Group grew up in their era.

The abilities of the two were recognized by young people.

And there is no need for marketing costs at all. This is the power of personal charm.

As a result, a confrontation instantly broke out on the Internet, and the two groups of people started arguing in the comment section.

Some bloggers even started to quarrel with each other. Often one blogger expressed an opinion, and then the blogger with the opposite opinion began to refute it, and then more bloggers joined in.

"Don't blame me for being harsh. Even if Gao Yuan and Lei Bushi were combined, they would not be a match for Mr. Duan."

"Are you kidding? My General Manager Gao let him beat Old Duan with one hand. He has been abroad for so many years, and you really think he is so awesome? He doesn't have the final say in China now."

"You weren't born in that era, so you don't know how powerful Mr. Duan was."

"Haha, you were born in that era. Did Mr. Duan give you a penny?"

"Since you praised Gao Yuan so much, did Gao Yuan give you money?"

"Sorry, I really did send it. I am a Yuanfang car owner. Before the car was delivered, I could receive cash red envelopes and vouchers every day. When Mr. Gao was live streaming, I also grabbed a lot of red envelopes."

"..."

The Internet war is intensifying, but Gao Yuan and Lei Jun have always had the upper hand.

After all, most people who use the Internet are young people.

These young people don't tolerate those who are in their forties, fifties or even sixties. Anyway, they are not related to them, so they just confront them directly.

"Buzz!"

Gao Yuan was always paying attention to the developments on the Internet, and at this moment, his cell phone rang.

The note displayed on the page is Lei Bushi.

After the call was connected, Lei Jun said, "Mr. Gao, this senior of ours really knows marketing very well. He just returned to China not long ago, and he has been on three hot searches in a row."

"I just saw that he has opened personal accounts on various video apps to tell his employees about his entrepreneurial history."

"It's only been less than ten minutes since I registered, and the number of fans on my account has exceeded 300,000. If this incident becomes a hot search, I'm afraid the number of fans will easily exceed several million."

Lei Jun is not worried about mobile phones, as the quality of Xiaomi's hot series of mobile phones is much better than that of OPPO and VIVO.

However, Mr. Duan’s marketing ability should not be underestimated, because his presence may greatly slow down the speed of OPPO and VIVO’s bankruptcy.

Lei Jun also plans to work with Gao Yuan to acquire the production lines of OPPO and VIVO after their bankruptcy.

"He is anxious! This shows that OPPO and VIVO are indeed facing a life-or-death moment." Gao Yuan said, "Let's first look at his marketing capabilities. Twenty years ago, the Internet was well developed overseas. Twenty years later, the domestic Internet has surpassed it in many aspects."

"And nowadays, marketing methods are mainly based on the Internet. Let's see if he can adapt to it."

Gao Yuan is also taking things one step at a time.

If Lao Duan intends to attack in an open and aboveboard manner, Gao Yuan will definitely agree.

But if he uses dishonorable means to deal with Xiaomi's hot series of mobile phones, Gao Yuan will not be a pushover.

"Then I'll fight him first."

Rebus said.

On the same day, Lei Jun released a video, welcoming Mr. Duan to join the short video platform, and hoped that when Mr. Duan had time, they could meet and chat.

This video seems to be a congratulation, but in fact it is full of provocation.

Some people smelled a hint of tension in Lei Jun’s video.

the other side.

OPPO's headquarters.

Lao Duan almost vomited blood when he saw the attacks from netizens in the comment section.

I didn't expect there to be so many trolls in the comment section.
"Face the gap, Lao Duan. It's not just the phone or the age. You are no match for Lei Jun."

"Times are changing, Mr. Duan. Your era is gone forever. If I were you, I would just admit defeat."

"Boss Duan, why bother? Why don't you just retire when you're old? Why do you have to come out and make trouble..."

"..."

Most of those people who have bad intentions and mock Mr. Duan in the comment section are actually not fans of Lei Jun. They just want to join in the fun and go to the comment section to talk nonsense.

There were also many black fans stirring up trouble in the comment section of Lei Jun and Gao Yuan's accounts, but Gao Yuan and Lei Jun didn't take it seriously.

But in Mr. Duan's eyes, these people were instigated by Lei Jun and Gao Yuan.

Mr. Duan has always been in semi-seclusion, how could he have experienced these things? He can still ignore the attacks of some keyboard warriors, but some people have already started to curse his ancestors for eighteen generations.

Under the persuasion of the staff, Mr. Duan temporarily closed the comment area.

"Mr. Duan, we have been on the hot search list several times recently, and the downward trend in mobile phone sales has slowed down a little." The general manager of OPPO found Mr. Duan to report the situation. "But the situation is still serious. I did a survey. As the quality of Xiaomi's hot series mobile phones ferments, 87% of users think of Xiaomi's hot series mobile phones first when buying a mobile phone. They have a strong desire to buy Xiaomi mobile phones. If this continues, this figure is likely to rise to 95%."

He has already said it very subtly.

The willingness to buy a mobile phone can particularly reflect the sales volume of a mobile phone. If there is no willingness to buy, then it’s really all over.

"We will allocate 5 billion yuan from the account for publicity and promote it on major media and video websites." Mr. Duan said, "We may not be able to match their quality, but we must surpass them in marketing. We need to create a trend that our OV phones are better than the Zhire series phones."

"We bought off those big Vs to promote the product. Remember, the copywriting must be well written. There can't be any obvious behavior of flattering the inferior and the advertising should be soft. People can't tell that we are marketing OV phones and belittling the Zhire series of phones."

Mr. Duan made arrangements quickly.

"By the way, how is our research on the Sizzling Series mobile phones going?" Mr. Duan asked. As early as the first day of the release of the Sizzling Series mobile phones, the OV project department got the mobile phones, disassembled them to study the internal structure, and tried to crack the mobile phone system.

As long as you can crack it, you can find a way to learn it.

Although it cannot be replicated one-to-one, we can learn from the essence of this system and use it on OPPO and VIVO phones.

"It has not been cracked yet. Their mobile phone system is too complicated."

The general manager of OPPO frowned and said, "I really can't imagine how this system was developed. I can say that their mobile phone system is at least three or four times better than the Apple system."

You know, the Fruit OS is already the best mobile phone system in the world.

It’s hard to imagine how they developed it.

Even if all the scientists in the world were gathered together, it would be difficult to achieve this level in a short period of time. It would take at least three or four years of research and development.

"I heard that this is only part of the technology transferred by Yuanfang Mobile, which is relatively backward. I can't imagine how terrible it would be if Yuanfang Mobile were to be launched on the market!"

The general manager couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

This will be the best mobile phone system in the world, beating all other mobile phones.

OV phones are lucky to be in the same era as these phones, and they will soon witness the glory of Yuanfang phones and Xiaomi's hot series phones. At the same time, OV phones are also unfortunate because they are rivals of Xiaomi's hot series phones.

The chances of winning against such an absurdly powerful mobile phone are simply too low.

"Yes!" Mr. Duan also sighed, "Fortunately, we are not in direct competition with Yuanfang Mobile. They plan to enter the high-end market. If they come to the low-end market, I'm afraid we won't even have a chance to fight back."

“By the way, apart from the system, does Xiaomi phone have any other advantages?” Mr. Duan asked.

"The remaining components have been improved compared to previous Xiaomi phones, but the improvement is not significant." OPPO's general manager said, "Mr. Duan, do you think we can start with components, such as chips!"

.

"Use chips to block Xiaomi phones?" Mr. Duan pondered for a moment. "It's very difficult. Those chip companies also need to make money. The more phones they sell, the more chips they sell. This month alone, Xiaomi sold 30 million phones, which means they need 30 million mobile phone chips."

"These 30 million chips are worth at least 100 billion yuan, and the sales volume of Xiaomi mobile phones will definitely not decrease in the future. This will be a stable market of 200 to 300 billion yuan per year."

"It is very difficult to block Xiaomi from importing chips by relying on relationships and connections."

Those chip manufacturers are not fools, they bring them so much revenue every year.

If the cooperation with Xiaomi is terminated, who will make up for the lost money? Will Duan make up for it?
The net profit of OPPO and VIVO combined was only about 100 billion last year. If they really want to reach a cooperation, it means that they will eat up these chips and lose more than 100 billion every year.

At this rate of losses, OPPO and VIVO will go bankrupt even faster.

"But nothing is absolute. Stopping it won't work, but we can speculate on chips." Mr. Duan said, "After the Xiaomi Hot Series mobile phone platform, the net profit of each mobile phone is not much. As long as we can find a way to double the price of mobile phone chips, they will lose money every time they sell a Xiaomi Hot Series mobile phone."

"We will first stockpile a large amount of mobile phone chips to maintain our own operations, and then increase the production costs of the other party. We have to bleed them a little and not let them live too comfortably."

Mr. Duan has decided to use this method to target Xiaomi phones.

……

Hangzhou, the headquarters of Yuanfang Group.

Lei Jun and Gao Yuan are having a video conference.

"I heard that Mr. Duan has closed the comment section. It seems that he is not used to the current Internet." Lei Jun said, "In the past, I was scolded in the comment section a lot, but I managed to survive in the end."

When Lei Jun was being hacked, Mr. Duan had already started to enjoy a peaceful life.

The thing that young people remember most clearly may be that a senior executive of Xiaomi said that users of Xiaomi phones are all losers.

Overnight, Lei Jun's comment section was overwhelmed, with countless netizens flocking to the comment section to curse Lei Jun's ancestors.

That incident was considered the biggest public relations crisis for Xiaomi Group.

Lei Jun endured the scolding from netizens, apologized to them and explained the matter.

Going back further, Xiaomi Group has encountered many crises, but Lei Jun has always stood up and refused to be a coward.

If you want to make money, you must have a certain level of psychological endurance.

Those netizens showed no mercy when they cursed others. Many people quit the Internet after being scolded, and some people even took extreme measures.

"I'll leave the competition with OPPO and VIVO to you. I won't pay too much attention to it in the future," said Gao Yuan.

He has helped with almost everything he can, and the Yuanfang mobile phone will be launched next, so there is still a lot of things to do.

"Leave it to me. We already have an absolute advantage. If we lose, we will be ashamed to face others." Lei Juns said with a smile, "Mr. Duan will definitely not admit defeat so easily. I will fight him well next time."

Lei Jun is very confident. Today, Xiaomi's popular series of mobile phones have brought him more than 1200 billion in revenue.

You have to know that this is the revenue for a single month.

If other peripheral products and subsequent income are included, it has brought Xiaomi at least over 1500 billion in revenue.

Such a huge cash flow would be staggering no matter where it is placed.

Lei Jun also wanted to use the money to enter other industries, otherwise it would be uneconomical to keep the money in a bank account.

"Okay, then I'll leave this to you," Gao Yuan said. "Our Yuanfang Group's research institute has been conducting research and development. It is estimated that a new system will be developed in a year at most. By then, your new Xiaomi Fiery Series phones can use our Yuanfang Group's current system."

The system is constantly being updated and iterated.

The bigwigs in the research institutes of Yuanfang Group, standing on the shoulders of giants, have already thoroughly understood the system of Yuanfang mobile phones.

With their current knowledge reserves, they can bring tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of direct value to any mobile phone company.

However, since Gao Yuan has handed over the mobile phone system to these people, he will definitely not let them leave easily.

Besides, those people will not leave. They have a mysterious addiction to technology. As long as they can continue to develop new products and make new discoveries, they will be more excited than rewarding them with millions.

These people stay in the office all day long, doing nothing but research and development. Even after get off work, they voluntarily work overtime and strive to develop a newer generation of systems. Gao Yuan can only describe it in one sentence: working themselves to death.

Of course, Gao Yuan is not a stingy person. He pays these scientific research leaders very high salaries so that they can concentrate on their research without having to worry about complicated matters that affect their work.
