Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 2404 The goal must be clear!
Ni Xingyu has been working hard all his life to build Huaxia Chip Huaxia Computer. His goal is to develop Huaxia's own computer chip.

Regarding this goal, Chen Jianghai also has the same philosophy, and he is also a promoter of Huaxia Chip.

Therefore, whenever Ni Xingyu needs support, Chen Jianghai will spare no effort to provide help.

After seeing off Ni Xingyu, Chen Jianghai welcomed Duan Yongping.

He came to Chen Jianghai to discuss matters related to the Forerunner V3 mobile phone.

The biggest question now is how this phone should be priced.

This issue is not only of great concern to the broad consumer groups, but also to senior executives within the Qiuhai Group, including Yue Hongsheng.

If the price is too high, then the majority of consumers will obviously not be able to afford it.

If the price is too low, it is obviously impossible to amortize the R&D costs.

The balance between these two parties is difficult to control.

"Mr. Chen, here is a cost report for our research and development of the Forerunner V3 mobile phone. Please take a look."

Duan Yongping took out a piece of information. Chen Jianghai was slightly stunned when he looked at the information introduction above.

In 1999, the cost of producing an extremely advanced smartphone was too high.

According to this information, the materials consumed by this mobile phone alone cost four to five thousand. If labor and other expenses are included, then the price of this mobile phone will be around seven or eight thousand.

This does not include R&D costs.

For this mobile phone, Oriental Communications Company has invested extremely high research and development costs.

Such a high price gave Duan Yongping a headache.

If this phone is priced below the price range of [-] yuan, it will be difficult to recover the cost.

Chen Jianghai looked at the report and remained silent.

Yue Hongsheng and Luo Hao were both sitting aside, and they were also thinking.

Therefore, how to determine this price has become an urgent problem that needs to be solved.

"Mr. Chen, based on our preliminary assessment, we plan to set the price at [-]. If there is no objection to this price, then we will price it at this price."

Duan Yongping looked at Chen Jianghai and said.

"Yong Ping, I'm afraid this price is not good."

Chen Jianghai frowned. He still felt that the price was a bit too high.

"Mr. Chen, this price is not high. If it were replaced by those foreign companies, I'm afraid the price would have exceeded [-]. We only sell it for [-], which is very conscientious. Don't forget that we are developing this mobile phone. Increased costs..."

Duan Yongping said helplessly.

He doesn't want to price this phone too high, but the fact is that it's not a question of whether he wants it or not.

"Mr. Chen, this price is indeed the result of our first round of discussions. We all think there is no problem with this price."

Yue Hongsheng also stood up at this moment and said that he and Duan Yongping had already discussed it.

Firstly, the purchasing power of consumers must be taken into consideration, and secondly, cost recovery must be considered.

After all, Oriental Communications Company spent too much money to develop this phone, so they have to get back some of the cost for this phone.

Otherwise, this is not doing business, this is clearly cheating!
"My personal suggestion is to put the price at 9999 and not exceed the 1 yuan mark."

Chen Jianghai thought for a while and said.

In fact, in this era, it is normal for a mobile phone to cost more than 1 yuan.The latest mobile phone developed by Motorola already has the function of surfing the Internet, and it still has a black and white screen and only some simple functions.

Such a mobile phone can actually be sold for tens of thousands of dollars. But now, the Forerunner V3 produced by Oriental Communications Company has completely killed Motorola, but their price has not exceeded ten thousand!
This is almost a fantasy.

Even a big brother would cost over [-] yuan.

"Yongping, we are not in the business of luxury goods, and we are not that delicate."

"I will pay you for the R&D costs and production costs. The price must be locked within 1 yuan."

Chen Jianghai made a decision. His move made both Duan Yongping and Yue Hongsheng a little confused.

"Mr. Chen, why is this?"

Duan Yongping asked helplessly.

He doesn't quite understand that their mobile phone is made just to make money.

But Chen Jianghai kept the price so low, obviously not for profit.

"The reason is simple, small profits but quick turnover, and it is also a preparation for our forerunner V3 to quickly seize the market."

"You told me before that you would make a emasculated version with fewer functions and lower prices, but I don't think this is feasible."

Chen Jianghai said lightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

"With the development of technology, mobile phones will be promoted every year after entering the intelligent era. We have opened the Pandora door of intelligence."

"Then in the future, other companies will try their best to eat into this cake. At that time, the industry will be involuted, and the speed of innovation will become faster and faster."

"If we want to maintain an advantage in this situation, our goals must be clear!"

Chen Jianghai raised three fingers: "That means more advanced, smarter and cheaper!"

Duan Yongping sighed. He was a little helpless. Since Chen Jianghai had decided all this, he couldn't refute it.

“Don’t be blinded by the immediate benefits.”

Chen Jianghai looked at Duan Yongping's seemingly unwilling expression, then smiled and patted his shoulder, "The production cost of this mobile phone is actually only about seven or eight thousand. If we compress some less critical parts, then The cost is less than six thousand."

"So our prices don't exceed [-] yuan, and we can still make a lot of money by making small profits but quick turnover."

Chen Jianghai's goal is simple, that is, small profits but quick turnover.

Even such an advanced mobile phone costs less than [-], so how can other companies survive?
Chen Jianghai took the lead in launching the first shot in the price war.

Their Forerunner V3 is better in terms of quality and technology. How can other companies compete?

When their products are full of shortcomings and are sold at sky-high prices, who will consumers choose?
No matter what it is, Chen Jianghai's Forerunner V3 has already surpassed these mobile phone companies in terms of price/performance ratio.

After the price issue is settled, it will soon be the new millennium.

Now that New Year's Day is approaching, there is a festive atmosphere everywhere.

The weather in Beijing is cold in December, and there was a light snowfall two days ago.

Chen Jianghai dialed Fang Aiguo's number in the United States.

Fang Aiguo will not be able to come back to celebrate the New Year this year. Chen Jianghai can't call and not go. He still has to express condolences when he should.

People in the United States worked hard to help Chen Jianghai attack the American stock market.

As a result, Chen Jianghai didn't even make a single call, which chilled the brother's heart.
