Chapter 114 Mi Fans VS Huawei Fans: Mate s Exposed
Lei Jun didn't back down; he answered everyone's questions and took photos with each person one by one, showing no airs and being very friendly. It wasn't until 10 minutes later that security guards "rescued" him from the scene.
But when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped.
"Let's create a group chat," he said, turning around.
Lin Bin was a beat slow to react, deliberately feigning an air of Lei Jun's impromptu idea due to everyone's enthusiasm: "What group?"
"Mi Fan Group. Those who want to participate in the closed beta, please join. Those who are optimistic about our Rice Company can also join." Lei Jun pointed to the students who were still gathered at the door. "You are the first batch. Next year, everyone is welcome to join our Rice Company."
This statement caused excitement again... This is a real big boss, hiring on the spot, joining him would definitely make him a trusted confidant.
On the spot, a QQ group called "New Hope for Rice" was established, and the first group to join were more than 500 students from Kyoto University.
The group owner is Lei Jun himself!
The first message in the group came from Lei Jun:
"Welcome everyone. From this moment on, you are not users, you are product managers!"
The second message: "I will read every bug. I will respond to every suggestion. Let's work together to make MIUI the best Android system."
The students in the group were instantly taken aback by Lei Jun's words, and as soon as the group's mute period ended, the message spread like wildfire.
"Mr. Lei, is this for real?"
"I'm in the same group as a big shot, taking a screenshot to remember the occasion!"
"I have a suggestion: could you please change the skin of the input method? The current one is really ugly."
Three minutes later, Lei Jun replied: "The beta version will be released next month, and there will be new skins."
The group chat exploded again.
"Holy crap, they really came back!"
The news spread quickly, and with Lei Jun's promotion, these students had high expectations for the upcoming new system.
Lin Bin was lurking in the group chat, looking at the screen full of messages, when he suddenly understood what Lei Jun meant by "spark"!
There were 532 people, now there are 532.
But if everyone recruits 10 people, that's 5000 people; if everyone recruits 100 people, that's 5 people.
This isn't a user, it's a missionary.
…………
The next day, in Shenzhen.
Yu Dazui sat in the office of Huawei's terminal, scrolling through Weibo.
Unsurprisingly, news of Lei Jun's speech became a trending topic.
The screenshot trending on social media is a photo of Lei Jun giving a speech at Kyoto University. His quote about 1999 has been shared tens of thousands of times.
In the comments section, someone is doing the math: a 1.2GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 4-inch 720p screen for 1999 yuan. Can Lei Jun afford to lose money on this?
"Even if you can't afford to lose, you have to lose; that's called internet thinking."
"Huawei's Honor Play is also 1999, you two should have a fight."
"Honor can't beat Rice."
After reading it, Yu Dazui put down his phone.
He finally understood what Shen Fei meant by saying that 1999 would usher in a golden age. And now, so very soon, an "imitator" has emerged.
This marketing tactic is quite effective.
Looking at Kyoto University's official Weibo account and the online buzz...
After thinking for a moment, Yu Dazui decided to give a brief reply.
"The Honor Play has achieved cumulative sales of over 240 million units in just half a month since its launch. Thank you to all our fans for your support. At 1999, our product may not be the best, but it represents our commitment to making technology accessible to everyone."
We will continue down this path, and next year we will have even more and better products.
He deliberately added the hashtag #pollen# to this Weibo post.
Within seconds of the Weibo post being published, the first comment in the comment section was one that immediately understood.
Lazy Sheep's Assistant: "Is Mr. Yu tagging Lei Jun?"
"Pollen vs. Rice Flour, Which to Choose?"
"The pollen comes from the chrysanthemum factory, and the rice noodles come from rice. I'm a consumer, and I'll buy whichever offers the best value for money. It's all about being a fan."
Yu Dazui saw this comment, smiled, and then gave it a thumbs up.
That's how it should be... but the gaming community is probably not going to be so peaceful from now on.
"To be honest, Honor's 10W fast charging has already blown away Xiaomi... no, it blows away all smartphones, including Honor's parent company, the Mate series."
@YuDazui, does the Mate series have a fast charging version...?
Less than two minutes later, Yu Dazui replied: "The fast-charging version of the Mate series is in preparation, featuring a larger battery and faster charging speed. Stay tuned!"
The leak of the new phone immediately shifted the focus of fans' conversation.
This response also dispelled some rumors...
These are idiotic rumors: fast charging damages batteries, flagship phones are not user-friendly, and Honor is a guinea pig.
Yu Dazui checked Weibo and then called Shen Fei.
"Mr. Shen, have you checked Weibo...?"
"I've seen it." A hint of admiration could still be heard in Shen Fei's voice. "Lei Jun is a big shot."
"What should we do?" Yu Dazui, afraid that Shen Fei would misunderstand, added again, "Should we put him down a bit? I feel that his marketing ability is still very strong."
"It is indeed strong, but we don't need to worry about it for now," Shen Fei said. "Let him burn his fires, we'll do ours."
Self-development and comprador trade are never the same path. They may be very successful in the short term, but in the long run, we have a greater advantage.
"I understand, Mr. Shen."
However, isn't 240 million units a bit too much?
Yu Dazui spoke with a hint of modesty, but you couldn't tell from his tone at all.
On the other end of the phone, Shen Fei chuckled: "President Yu, are you looking for a scolding or showing off?"
Okay, the Honor project team will triple your annual salary; we'll use your year-end bonus to pay it.
"President Shen, I was wrong!" Yu Dazui said, his mouth still full of laughter.
I don't care about year-end bonuses!
After all, he defended his status as a formidable player this year.
Last year, the mobile phone business unit bought so many mobile phones, but the revenue was not as high as it has been in the last few months, which was considered a joke in the industry. Now, in just a few months, the two mobile phones together have sold more than 600 million yuan worth of phones.
Finally, Shen Fei added, "Besides, this is for the supply chain. It tells MediaTek and Dongfang Factory that our resources can support them."
As for your year-end bonus, that depends on how well the Mate S performs.
…………
At 10 p.m., Shen Fei returned home.
Zhang Mingzhu was curled up on the sofa reading a book when she saw him come back and quickly hugged him.
During their passionate romance, Zhang Mingzhu was still very clingy... She would fly to Guangzhou almost every weekend to spend the weekend with him...
Shen Fei carried her to the sofa where they had been sitting and picked up the book she was reading. It was "A History of Western Philosophy," and he turned to the chapter on Kant.
"Prepare for the exam."
"Hmm." Zhang Mingzhu closed the book, then hugged him tightly, lying close in her arms. "I'll graduate next year. My dad originally wanted me to become a teacher at Kyoto University."
But now…
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Fei looked at her.
"But now..." Zhang Mingzhu's face flushed slightly!
"And now he wants us to... get married next year."
The living room fell silent for a moment, then Shen Fei suddenly laughed: "Our dad's afraid I'll run away."
