Chapter 186 Yuan Youwei
Guangzhou, Transsion headquarters.
Li Qing, holding the sales data, knocked on the office door.
"Mr. Shen, Sinyuan Technology has produced 800 million memory modules, 500 million flash memory modules, and 300 million screens in the past few days."
More than 400 million surveillance cameras.
Shen Fei looked up and nodded.
"Have you gotten the money back?"
Li Qing placed the ledger in front of Shen Fei: "Cash or bank transfer, payment first, then delivery. Not a penny less, except the taxes haven't been paid yet."
Shen Fei raised his head, thinking that although he had connections, he shouldn't try to play tricks on this.
If someone gets hold of something against you, then it's not worth the loss.
"The books must be kept clean. Not a penny of tax should be missed."
Li Qing nodded: "Understood."
Taxes are unavoidable, but the cost of these chips will likely give the finance department a headache.
Fortunately, it wasn't the first time, so they should be used to it by now.
Seeing Shen Fei busy, she paused for a moment to make sure she had finished her work before speaking, "President Shen, San Sang is starting to get anxious."
Their people have been asking around Huaqiangbei, trying to find out where the goods from Sinyuan Technology came from.
This sudden appearance of a major manufacturer caught Sanson completely off guard. They originally wanted to continue to hype the product up, but unfortunately, they just couldn't get it going.
An investigation revealed that there was a large factory in Huaqiangbei that had all the storage combinations needed for feature phones... This instantly eased the market's panic.
"Let them find out. So what if they do? It's not like we haven't made official announcements before."
…………
Kimchi Country, Sansang Electronics.
Lee Geon-hee looked at the investigation report, his face filled with disbelief.
If this wasn't an investigation report from his core confidants, he would definitely think that outside investigation agencies were lying to him.
They cheated him out of his money!
After all, in less than a week, the shipment volume reached tens of millions.
And just like before, the performance is brand new, but the silkscreen serial numbers are all from products from two years ago.
This caused them huge losses, after all, they spent a lot of time setting up the stage, only to find that someone was selling tickets outside.
Fortunately, they mainly sell low-end products such as 128MB, 256MB, 4GB or 8GB, while the prices in the high-end market remain relatively stable.
"Where did the goods come from? Have you found out?"
"Based on online rumors and their tracking"
These products likely came from Transsion's recycling and dismantling center. They process large quantities of used mobile phones there every month, then package them and ship them to Africa; it seems they're now being processed domestically.
They supposedly possess a secret technology that can restore these chips to pristine condition.
He put the report down, then looked at the head of the intelligence department with a scrutinizing expression: "Do you think you'll believe this result?"
The person in charge scratched his head, seemingly not quite believing it either.
Disassembling and reusing old mobile phones is a practice in many developing countries, and China has done it before...
But the performance has recovered to its peak level or even improved, which is simply against the laws of physics.
But there really is no other reason, otherwise it would be a huge piece of bad news.
Transsion has overcome the challenges of storage production.
Their wafer fabs can manufacture the chips themselves, but the technology is somewhat outdated, limiting them to producing only low-end products. However, they can't circumvent the patents...
The only option was to replace the silkscreen with a label from several years ago to avoid related lawsuits.
That would be even worse news...
A burly, simple-minded man standing nearby said directly, "Chairman, this is legal."
"China is relatively underdeveloped, so it's normal for them to use recycled products to cheat people. They also lack relevant regulations to oversee this..."
The intelligence chief rolled his eyes at his deputy, then voiced his bold guess.
Lee Geon-hee finally nodded; the plan had become highly feasible.
As for whether Transsion has this technology, a company that can even manufacture 28nm chips should also be able to develop flash memory.
Although it's difficult to convince him, it's still more convincing than presenting a used product as brand new.
He stared at the report in silence for a long time before finally saying:
"Sound transmission... is much more difficult to deal with than I imagined."
…………
April 15, 2011, Africa.
Transsion held three press conferences simultaneously in Nigeria, Libya, and Ethiopia.
The Nigerian meeting was chaired by Adebayor himself, a response to a new product that San San launched in Africa last week.
Adebayor stood on the stage, holding a black cell phone in his hand.
Transsion Power2 Pro.
Featuring a groundbreaking 4000mAh super-large battery, truly achieving one-month charging capability.
A cheer, full of local flavor, erupted from the audience.
Adebayor then announced other selling points, upgrading from four SIM cards to eight SIM cards, with card slots all above the battery, completely satisfying the phone card problem.
A thunderous applause erupted, and some people became completely excited.
"Wow, now I don't have to worry about my five wives anymore. I can answer every single one of their calls..."
"Dude, you're amazing. But have you ever considered that your wife could also make separate phone calls with five different men...?"
Hei Zi, who was initially happy, suddenly frowned, and even the expression on his face became serious.
After this product is released, he'll probably have another hat on his head.
After announcing these selling points, Adebayo directly revealed the final price: $199.
The audience erupted in applause again, but this time someone raised their hand and asked:
"Mr. Adebayo, Sanson's machine only costs $189, and it has a larger storage capacity, so it can play more songs."
The Power Max only costs $149, and this generation has increased by $50, which shows a lack of sincerity in pricing.
Adebayo smiled and said, "Good question. You must be referring to their newly released T3 music phone."
How good can a product be if it even copies our name?
Moreover, their machines only allow you to insert two cards, and you have to choose between a primary card and a secondary card.
Our machine has 8 cards, you can insert any of them without selecting one, and each one is the primary card.
"And we're on standby for a month, what about San Sang?"
"As for the price, adding card slots isn't something you can just do at will; it requires a certain level of technology."
Battery costs are also very high... This price is already a way of giving back to everyone.
Your words really hurt me.
The audience nodded; the answer seemed quite clear.
As for the person who originally asked the question, they are now being watched by everyone else.
There will always be people who don't know what's good for them.
After the press conference ended, some customers who needed to upgrade their devices immediately went to the sales booth.
In other regions, loudspeakers blared the moment the sale was announced, startling passersby.
But this had a surprising effect; some customers who were planning to go to Sansang came directly to Transsion's stores.
Some former Transsion distributors were furious when they saw that their sales were only half of what they used to be after they moved to better stores.
As they prepared to make their move, a group of black men immediately surrounded them.
Seeing the dark muscles on the other person's arms and the sophisticated weapons in their hands, they all slid down to their knees again.
Adebayor also reported the situation here to Shen Fei.
However, Shenyang Aircraft Corporation's focus remains on the domestic market.
After all, a product that will shock the tech world is about to be released, and Lei Jun's expression will definitely be quite interesting.
