Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

Seagate, IBM, Meituo, Western Digital and other hard disk manufacturers have spent a lot of effort, it can be said that they decided to reduce their prices in Xiaguo after picking meat between their teeth.

This price cut has made these manufacturers very entangled.

Because their profits have dropped to a critical point, they chose to take the road of volume.

It was originally thought that this price cut would stabilize the market of mechanical hard drives in Xiaguo, allowing consumers to choose carbon crystal hard drives more carefully.

Who knows that it took a lot of effort here, and the bald man plucked the hair on his head before he decided to cut the price, and Changtian Technology directly followed the price cut.

Not to mention the price cut, a 160g carbon crystal hard drive was also launched directly.

This operation of Changtian Technology is mainly to make the technology companies in the United States incomprehensible, and even feel quite frightened.

Because no one knows what the bottom line of Changtian Technology is?

I don't know what the cost price of carbon crystal hard drives is.

Seagate and Western Digital are the world's largest hard disk manufacturers, with a market value of several billion meters.

Their volume is much higher than that of Changtian Technology and the God Ship.

It stands to reason that in a price war, they will have more confidence and capital than Changtian Technology.

But the technical background of Changtian Technology made them a little scared.

Carbon crystal hard drives will reduce prices if they say they are reduced. 160g carbon crystal hard drives will be released when they are released, mass production will be mass produced, and sales will be sold!

The 160g mechanical hard drive is currently a huge technical problem for Seagate's enterprises.

Did Changtian Technology break through so easily?

The market must vote with its feet.

Consumers see that 160g hard drives have come out. What 40g and 20g garbage storage are they still using?

And with the price reduction of mechanical hard drives, carbon crystal hard drives have followed suit, so it seems that the cost performance of carbon crystal hard drives has come up at once.

What will consumers choose?

This series of measures by Changtian Technology caught the hard disk manufacturers in the United States by surprise.

The most important thing is that this time Changtian Technology's 160g hard drive is not just talking about it, but it has started mass production.

The most excited is Wu Jun.

After Zhou Linghua's factory produced a 160g carbon crystal hard drive, it was immediately sent to the Shenzhen market and matched with the Shenchuan t1 computer.

Wu Jun doesn't even need too much publicity, the Shenchuan T1 series is almost all snapped up!

At the high-level meeting of the Shenchuan, Wu Jun put forward a clear goal for the Shenchuan for the first time.

"We strive to sell 20,000 computers in the June sales season! We want to become the PC market in Xiaguo!"

At this time, Wu Jun didn't dare to say that he would compete with Lianxiang for the first position.

After all, Lianxiang has been operating for more than ten years, and its supply chain and sales chain are not comparable to the newly established Shenchuan.

It seems to be aimed at Lianxiang, there is no biggest only a bigger slogan.

Wu Jun's magic ship directly proposed: "Fill your world!"

Soon there were consumers who published their experience of using 160g hard drives on paper media such as "Computer News" and "Computer World", as well as on various forums.

"I just bought the Shenchuan T1 yesterday, a 160G hard drive. I allocated 20G to the C drive, and I still have 140G. The downloaded games and movies didn't fill the hard drive! You don't know how cool it is!"

"And the read and write speed of carbon crystal hard disks is extremely fast. I think mechanical hard disks should be eliminated by the times!"

In 2001, there were already various secret passages on the Internet, and these secret passages became the welfare of otaku.

According to the Internet speed of these years, filling up your hard drive is the biggest dream of otaku.

"The day before yesterday, I went to Lianxiang to take a look at the computer. The slogan given by Lianxiang is that there is no biggest, only bigger. I thought their hard disk would be big, but it turned out to be 80g..."

This time, "Computer News" has completely become a fan of Changtian Technology.

"Computer News" commented on the front page of the latest issue: "The birth of 160G hard disk means that Xia Guo's hard disk industry has reached a global leading position, which is the most proud thing in Xia Guo's IT industry in recent years. ."

Yang Qing was completely dumbfounded, and Lianxiang suffered an unprecedented crisis.

All high-end PC sales have collapsed.

When many consumers come to Lianxiang's sales point, they will directly ask if there is a computer with a 160g hard disk.

Indeed, a PC can install two 80G hard drives to make up 160g.

However, its response speed and read and write speed are simply no way to compare with carbon crystal hard drives.

Looking back at brands such as HP and Dell, sales have shrunk dramatically during this period.

And like Lianxiang, most of the customers of brands such as Dell and HP are enterprises and governments (the so-called stupid rich).

If you leave this part of the user aside, only look at the ordinary individual user market.

Everyone's sales have shrunk terribly.

Lianxiang's PC sales last year were about 2.6 million units, and this year is expected to be about 3 million.

The PC sales of Shenchuan in June will definitely exceed 20,000 units, or even close to 30,000.

According to this kind of growth rate, it will be a matter of time before its sales surpass Lianxiang.

The biggest problem now is that many government and enterprise customers have not realized that Shenchuan's computers are extremely cost-effective.

If this part of customers reacts, then Lianxiang, Dell and other brands will encounter greater challenges.

Under Chen Xiao's suggestion, Wu Jun did not blindly expand his sales points, but set out to establish his own after-sales service chain.

Wu Jun also believes that as long as his brand is cost-effective and does not collapse after sales, he will never worry about sales.

Wu Jun roughly calculated the current sales and profits~www.readwn.com~ If this situation continues until the end of the year, the profit of Shenchuan this year may exceed 100 million yuan.

This made Wu Jun's heart pounding. Shenchuan has only been established for half a year, and the profit will exceed 100 million. Sure enough, when it comes to the wind, pigs can take off.

But some companies are in a hurry.

American brands such as HP and Dell immediately sent letters to the National Computer Association and the Semiconductor Association.

They asked the relevant associations to take immediate measures, or agreed to negotiate with Changtian Technology to purchase carbon crystal hard drives.

Or ban the use of carbon crystal hard drives from technical standards.

Dell said in the letter: "The application of carbon crystal hard drives in the Xiaguo market has greatly affected the interests of our company. Our company is a PC company, not a single hardware manufacturer. For the interests of the company and the majority of shareholders , we require the immediate use of carbon crystal hard drives.”

Dell's remarks are very clear, that is, to request the repeal of the last letter of the US Computer Association and the Semiconductor Association.

Dell doesn't just say it, it does it.

Dell Xiaguo did not know what to do with it. It got hundreds of carbon crystal hard drives from a wholesaler in Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen, and used them on the latest computers, in the name of offline sellers modifying and upgrading privately. For sale.

Did not expect this batch of computers to be sought after just after they came out.

It has to be admitted here that the quality of the foundries of Lianxiang and Dell's brands is indeed stronger than that of Shenchuan.

If the carbon crystal hard drive is used in Lianxiang or Dell, even if it is the same configuration, the price is higher, and consumers can accept it.
