Daguo Technology starts with mobile phones

Chapter 17
"The United States has apples, and China has pineapples!"

Is the pineapple phone a joke? Have you ever seen a 99 yuan smart phone?Regardless of whether it is good or not, just say that the price is cheap enough?

Dalang mobile phone and pineapple mobile phone are the two giants in the era of feature phone copycats, and now only pineapple mobile phone is still holding its ground.

And it has successfully transformed, and can still make a lot of money with its strong copycat technology. The only disadvantage is that it does not have the support of domestic operators.

This is also the main reason why counterfeit mobile phones have gone from everywhere to only one or two remaining. Other reasons are just to accelerate the demise of counterfeit mobile phones.

Another example is some contract phones. The low-end contract phones of ZTE and Haier have been sold for less than 300 yuan. How can copycat manufacturers follow suit?
The profit of a hundred yuan machine is really limited. Unless the cost can be reduced to a certain extent like Nebula Technology, no one is willing to make a hundred yuan machine.

The average price of smartphones in the 3G era is 500 yuan. In this context, even the Xiaomi Mi 2, which focuses on cost-effectiveness, sells for 1999.

One can imagine how difficult it is for major mobile phone manufacturers to enter the low-end market if they want to make low-end mobile phones.

However, this situation will soon change. First, Rebus’s Redmi 1 will be released soon, and the price of 799 will be the peak when it debuts.

Second, Nebula Technology is back!
"If you don't do it, we will do it if you don't think the profit is high enough for a hundred yuan machine!"

It is a pity that Nebula Technology does not have an online channel like Xiaomi, so it is definitely incomparable.

不过没关系，3G时代的大郎手机卖599，4G时代的大郎手机还敢卖599，5G时代他们还敢卖599！

After the Dalang special commemorative edition and Dalang T12 are launched, the ultra-low price of the TV Dalang T12 can be used to attract Dalang mobile phones.

Liu Dalang doesn't expect much sales, after all, the current situation in the TV market is:

Online TVs sell for 599 and no one cares about them, and offline physical stores for 5999 are still in short supply.

After solving this matter, Liu Dalang immediately returned to Nebula Technology and began to arrange the development plan of Nebula Technology in the next five years.

First of all, the personnel of the technology research and development department were transferred back from India Nebula Technology, and at the same time of ensuring safety, the development of Nebula OS was based on the strengths of hundreds of schools.

The second is to absorb a large number of technical personnel and develop core technologies in an all-round way, including screens, batteries, chips, sensors, and communication technologies!
[Technology Collection] The production technology has been directly obtained. With such good conditions, it would be too bad if Liu Dalang didn't use it.

Domestic Nebula technology is mainly used for technology research and development, while foreign Nebula mobile phones are used to offset sales to make money and expand overseas markets, with a clear division of labor.

The D-level production line is mainly placed in the Xingyun Technology Industrial Park in New Delhi, part of the C-level production line, and all B-level production lines are placed in the domestic headquarters.

In the 4G era, Nebula Technology has accumulated capital and technology. In the 5G era, it will compete with major mobile phone manufacturers, and Nebula Technology will remain invincible.

During the two months of January and February, Liu Dalang earned another 1 points, and the rest of the profits were used to expand the Indian market.

Among them, the investment in marketing and technology research and development accounted for the bulk of Nebulas Technology's revenue, and Liu Dalang's disposable profit was only about one-third.

After finishing the domestic affairs, Liu Dalang returned to India Xingyun Technology Industrial Park again.

Nebula4 series mobile phones will be released soon, and Nebula Technology's first smart TV equipped with Nebula OS has also entered the final debugging stage.

Because two chips are used, one is responsible for running the system and the other is responsible for decoding, and the screen quality has been upgraded, the cost has increased a lot.

Nebula AE 13 is divided into two versions, 32-inch and 42-inch. The price of 32-inch will not change due to rising costs, and it is still 5599 rupees.

The 42-inch version Liu Dalang plans to price at 7799 rupees. The two versions have the same configuration except for the different screen size.

The overall configuration of the Nebula4 series mobile phones has not improved much. The focus of this conference is on the interactive experience of Nebula OS.

Lin Dong and others have already created functions such as "Nebula Interconnect" and "One-click Screencasting". Although they are not perfect, they are enough for now.

The biggest problem is software adaptation. Lin Dong only adapted the native applications of Nebula OS, and other software adaptations have to be done slowly.

Nebula Technology will not publicize these issues, and will use its strengths to avoid weaknesses. Unless it is a special case, no manufacturer is willing to take the initiative to talk about its shortcomings.

Just as Liu Dalang and Jia Yin were actively preparing for the launch event of Nebula Technology's new products and building momentum for the launch event, Nebula Technology in China sold the first Dalang Special Commemorative Edition and Dalang T12.

It is also interesting to say that the first mobile phone that Nebula Technology sold in China was not in the flagship stores of major e-commerce platforms, but in Penguin Group.

Sun Guangjie has been a Penguin user for ten years. He usually likes to brag and paddle with friends in the Penguin group on the computer after get off work.

At the same time, he is also an out-and-out enthusiast of digital products, and he also added a penguin group with a total of 200 people named "Digital House".

The group owner's name is "Like Water Flowing Years", and he usually promotes some affordable digital product links in the group, with a complete range of categories.

After Sun Guangjie got off work, he opened the "Digital Home" as usual, and wanted to ask the group of friends what good and cheap MP4 recommendations they had.

Ordinary mobile phone screens are too small, but ipads have big screens. The problem is that they are too expensive. The larger MP4 is just the right size for watching movies.

As a result, I happened to see a set of pictures sent by the group owner "Homecoming", which is a mobile phone with a large screen and a relatively high screen-to-body ratio.

This mobile phone is the Dalang special commemorative edition. Its front is a white panel with a full-screen design, and its appearance and appearance are quite gorgeous.

The picture on the back has not been posted by the group owner yet.

Although the Dalang Special Commemorative Edition is a matryoshka model of Nebula2 Pro, its color matching does not use such bright colors.

Red, orange, and green colors are very popular in India. In the Chinese market, the traditional black, white, and silver are more in line with market demand.

Sun Guangjie's heart was moved as soon as he saw it. Isn't this the "MP4" he wanted?

After seeing it, the group friends of "Digital House" were also aroused curiosity:

"@怪水流年, what kind of phone is this? It looks good! The screen is so big!"

"Yes! What brand of mobile phone?"

"What about the picture on the back cover? What about the parameters?"

"What does it mean to just let us see a frontal picture? It can't be P's!"

"@怪水流年, release the link!"

"Yes! Post the link to the group!"

Since the success of Mi 1, the Ray's comparison method has quickly become popular on the Internet. Many people like to look at the parameters of a mobile phone first.

"Time Like Water" is also unambiguous, and directly released the link of Dalang's special commemorative edition, and publicized it in the group according to Nebula Technology's copywriting:
"This is a commemorative product for Dalang mobile phone after an overseas brand named Nebula Technology acquired Dalang Technology."

"According to gossip, this product is very popular abroad! Overseas is the Xingyun mobile phone, and domestically it is the Dalang special commemorative edition!"

"Click on the link, there is a surprise price!"

Sun Guangjie: "..."

Other group friends: "???"

"Well, you are like a passing year, we treat you as a family member, but you treat us as fools?"

"Dalang's mobile phone? Isn't Dalang's mobile phone a counterfeit mobile phone? Make up, you continue to make up!"

"Last time I bought an Apple 4s from the link of the group owner. After opening it, it was a pineapple phone. The group owner has lost his prestige with me!"

"Boycott copycat phones!"

"Yes! What's the use of a high screen-to-body ratio? There's no Home button, so what should we do?"

Seeing this, "Time Like Water Flew Years" quickly explained: "Ahem, the pineapple last time was an accident!"

"I can assure you, this time it's definitely a serious big name, if you don't believe me, take a look!"

He posted another picture in the group, which was the news that "Ningyun Technology acquired Dalang Technology", but this news was actually fabricated.

As a counterfeit manufacturer, if you want to transform, you must take an unusual way of publicity.

From another point of view, Nebula Technology's "acquisition" of Dalang Technology is not fake news.

The group of friends saw it, oh, there is such a thing!Check it out on Baidu, it's true!
"The links are all sent to the group for you, don't you know if you go in and have a look?"

"Time Like Water" usually sells a lot of Huaqiangbei parallel products in the group, but this time Dalang's special commemorative edition is the one he is most confident in.

When someone found him at first, he didn't believe it at all. Dalang Technology has disappeared for more than a year, so why did it suddenly come out with a mobile phone?

It wasn't until a Dalang special commemorative edition was delivered to him that he realized that Nebula Technology really existed!Really bought Dalang Technology!

"No, isn't it good if you have the money to buy something else? What does it mean to buy a counterfeit manufacturer?"

With puzzlement and curiosity, "Time Like Water" opened the express delivery of Dalang's special commemorative edition.

After getting started, the texture of the cardboard box packaging is very good, not like a cheap fake box.

The whole is black, and the green Dalang portrait in the middle is still the same, and under the portrait is the flamboyant "Dalang Special Commemorative Edition".

After opening, the overall level of the package is very clear, the top is the mobile phone covered with frosted plastic film, and the bottom is the charger set.

Plus a spare battery, an original in-ear headphone, and a tempered film.

The product instruction manual, warranty card, etc. are placed in the middle of the bottom of the phone case.

There are so many accessories, but whether the mobile phone is good or not depends on the actual performance of the watch.

"Homecoming" took out the phone and tore off the film, and was shocked on the spot, almost exactly the same as the reaction of the group friends:
"I'll go! Such a high screen-to-body ratio?"

"Where's the Home button? Where's the Back button?"

"Also, a pure white phone with a green profile picture on the back, isn't it too cool?"

"It can't be done, it's better to put on a shell, but fortunately the shell is opaque!"

"Should I say it or not, the texture is not bad!"

"Where is the power button...here!"

After pressing and holding the power button for three seconds, "Time Like Water" felt a little regretful, and saw two lights flashing on the left and right, and a green head portrait of Dalang appeared!

It was followed by a magical voice, loud enough for fear that others would not hear it:
"I can make pancakes! Drink the medicine quickly! Dalang's mobile phone!"

"Dalang~ it's time to take medicine!"

"I'm afraid I won't survive..."

"Dalangxiu said so! Take medicine~"

Fortunately, there is no one else in his house, if this machine is turned on in a public place... hiss~

The ridicule is ridicule, after actually doing it, "Homecoming" was really surprised.

It turns out that smartphones can still do this?Replace physical buttons with virtual buttons?
The fluency of Nebulas OS is pretty good! 1+4GB, comes with a 32GB SD card, the memory is still large, and the photos are clear enough and the pixels are high enough!

Most importantly, his price is actually 699 yuan?At this price, "Homecoming" no longer knows whether to say it is expensive or cheap.

Let's say it's cheap, Haier and ZTE's telecom contract phones can be bought for only 289.

Say it is expensive, it has a 5.5-inch screen, 85.3% screen-to-body ratio, and a 1200-megapixel camera, which is really worth the price.

After thinking about it, "Homecoming" still decided to promote Dalang's special commemorative edition.

Not only because it is really good to get started, but also because of one of the promotional slogans:
"The world's first full-screen mobile phone!"

Who doesn't love a 5.5-inch full-screen phone?After using the Dalang special commemorative edition, and then using the original mobile phone, the screen is really small and blurry!

Originally, he could accept these things, but when compared with Dalang's special commemorative edition, what was not a shortcoming immediately became a shortcoming.

So, "Time Like Water" continued to say in the group: "Trust me once! Dalang's mobile phone has really come out of the rivers and lakes again! Hands-on experience full marks!"
