Chapter 334: I can’t touch Xingyi phones, so I can only touch HTC! (Page 13)

Cook smiled slightly: "As long as the Xingyi mobile phone does not go overseas and is not sold globally, what if the Xiaguo market allows him to grow bigger? The global mobile phone market is still ours, Apple!"

"The Chairman is wise!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and was in a good mood.

The basic disk is still from Apple!

Cook then changed the subject: "It's just that Xingyi Tablet is directly globalized, which poses a great threat to our iPad."

The vice president agreed very much: "With Xingyi Tablet, it will be difficult for iPad sales to surge this year, but maintaining the current volume is not a big problem. After all, our ecology and brand are very successful."

"Yes, our third-generation iPad has been greatly upgraded. Even if there is an impact from the Xingyi Tablet, sales will exceed last year's second-generation iPad!"

Cook waved his hand: "There is an old saying in the East, sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Even if the sales volume of the third generation can exceed that of the second generation, its market share will be greatly reduced, and it will be snatched away by Xingyi Tablet Lots of markets!”

"The current global tablet market is in an era of rapid growth. If the increase in iPad is small, it is already a step back!"

"This..." Everyone was silent, but think about it.

In 2010, global tablet sales were only 1500 million units, and iPad sales were only 1100 million units, accounting for 74.1%.

By 2011, global tablet sales surged to more than 6200 million, and global iPad sales reached 4100 million units, an increase of nearly four times. However, the market share was only 66%, which instead decreased by 8.1%!

This year, global tablet sales will continue to increase and are expected to exceed 100 million!

Even if iPad sales increase by half, reaching 6000 million, the market share will only remain at 60%, declining again.

What's more, with the advent of Xingyi tablets, it is impossible for iPad sales to increase by 50% this year. It would be good to even increase by 25%.

Other shareholders don't understand these principles, but Cook, who is good at operations, understands them.

The biggest difference between him and Jobs is that Jobs is good at making products, while Cook is good at operations.

Without Cook, Apple had a good reputation, but its sales and profits were very low.

Later, Jobs overcame all objections and asked Cook to join him. He carried out drastic reforms, shut down Apple's global factories, and replaced them with Foxconn OEMs. This resulted in Apple's costs being reduced, its profits soaring, and its rapid expansion!

It can be said that Jobs is an excellent product manager, while Cook is an excellent operations manager!

Cook sighed and looked serious: "If we launch a patent war against HTC and ban the sale of HTC One x, the global sales of iPhone 4s will not be too bad."

"But if the globalization of Xingyi Tablet cannot be contained, it will be very difficult for iPad's market share to decline."

"Is there anything you can do to curb the globalization of Xingyi tablets? Isn't patent litigation an option?"

The vice president shook his head: "It's difficult, very difficult. Xingyi Tablet only supports wifi and not 3G, so it does not involve Apple's communication patents. Most of Apple's other patents are bypassed by Xingyi Tablet, even if a few are not. The small patents that have been bypassed are meaningless, because Xingyi Technology has also bought many 4G patents and other core patents. If we sue their tablets, they can also counter-sue us for iPhone and iapd!"

Cook's mouth twitched: "So if we launch a patent war against the Xingyi Tablet, we will suffer greater losses? Will the gain outweigh the losses?"

"Is such that."

"Alas!" Cook sighed: "No wonder Xingyi Tablet dares to directly internationalize it. It turns out that the back-up plan has been prepared for a long time!"

"Yes, Wang Yi is not very old, but he is very prudent in his work."

Cook added: "What about starting with the supply chain?"

The vice president shook his head: "It's difficult. Last time we tried it, those supply chains were all aligned with Xingyi Technology. Not only did they reject us decisively, they even sold us back!" The vice president was speechless.

Cook's face turned pale: "..."

"And this time Xingyi Technology has also made changes, such as processors, Qualcomm and Nvidia. Both sides have checks and balances, and they dare not betray Xingyi Technology. After all, if one party dares to cut off the supply, the other party will immediately make up for it and win Xingyi All orders for technology!”

Cook took a deep breath: "That's right, Wang Yi's layout is absolutely watertight. It's really difficult to handle!"

"Forget it. If we can't move Xingyi Technology, then we'll move HTC first and keep the mobile phone market. Prepare a patent lawsuit and demand a ban on the sale of HTC One x! As for the Xingyi tablet, we'll slowly figure out a solution."

The vice president nodded: "Okay."

……

HTC is not clear about Apple's actions.

Just looking at the public opinion online, Chairman Wang Hong felt mixed emotions.

The sad thing is that the first-rate people praised the xphone 1pro and belittled the HTC One x. They said that the HTC One x was not as good as the xphone 1pro and was just a foil.

What makes people happy is that many people are still criticizing iPhone 4s, saying that although HTC One x is not as good as xphone 1pro, it has better configuration than iPhone 4s!

"Okay, it doesn't matter if we can't beat the Xphone 1 Pro, Xingyi phones can't go global anyway. As long as we can beat the iPhone 4s, our HTC One X will win!"

Wang Hong sighed, and the situation opened up.

The subordinate agreed decisively: "Yes, Chairman, it is enough to grab the market share of iPhone 4s. Then how should we estimate our sales and production volume..."

Wang Hong took a deep breath and said, "iPhone 4s sold 400 million units in the first week after its launch, and the annual sales volume is estimated to be over 6000 million. Our HTC One x has better configuration than iPhone 4s, so it will definitely be a hot seller. Let's put it this way, the annual sales volume is estimated to be million, and we will place an order of million for the first batch and start production!"

"Yes!" The subordinate was excited.

Last year, HTC's sales exceeded 40 million. This year, HTC One x is selling like hot cakes and can go even further.

Wang Hong changed the subject and said sarcastically, "As for the xphone 1pro, it has higher configuration and better reputation. If it can be sold globally, I'm afraid it can exceed million units! It's a pity that they can't leave Xia Country. The final sales volume is only million, which is not as good as our HTC One X. Haha."

The subordinate agreed: "That's right, the Xphone 1 Pro is destined to be a big thunder with little output, and can only be a supporting role for our HTC One X."

But what the two of them didn’t know was that the Xingyi Xphone 1 Pro could indeed not leave Xia Country.

Although their HTC One x has been released, its future is worrying!

The patent is a sword of Darkmos, attacking indiscriminately.

Only with enough patent moat can we withstand it!

February 2th is the first day of the Global Mobile Communications Conference.

All major brands have prepared exhibition halls to display their products.

Apple, for example, displayed the iPhone 4, iPhone 4s, iPad , iPad and other products in one go.

But unfortunately, not many people pay attention.

They are all old products that have been released for half a year or even a year. Recently, they have been continuously criticized by Xingyi Technology and HTC. They really do not have much appeal.

Equally crowded is the LG showroom opposite.

It also showed off its new phone, but unfortunately it didn’t get much attention either.

Instead, there were a few people gathered in the Samsung exhibition hall, looking at a new tablet that had not yet been released: "Galaxy Note!"

Seeing that someone was paying attention, Samsung Sales Manager Park Jun-ki was in a good mood. He stepped forward decisively and explained in person:
