Chapter 305 The New Brand to Replace Motorola
"Mr. Lei, you can't say that."
The contract was reviewed by your legal counsel and you yourself, and you signed it.
It's all in black and white, what's the problem?
Lei Jun hung up the phone and threw it on the ground.
Lin Bin stood to the side, his expression not much better, after all, they had given the other party a big embarrassment.
"Mr. Lei, we've been scammed."
"Reliance Jio uses our production line and has a similar design to ours, so theoretically the cost should be about the same."
However, their appearance has been designed, so theoretically their cost would be a bit higher than ours.
But they sell it for $169, and we…”
But Lei Jun didn't take it too seriously. With the production capacity of the Indian factory, how many units could Anil sell?
If mass production is to be carried out, the existing power supply will not be enough, and new fuel generators must be added.
Or build the promised power plant...
However, based on his observation, the power plant would not be completed in less than two years, in which case 169 would definitely lose money.
Rice can be exported based on domestic production capacity, so the advantage still lies with them.
…………
Meanwhile, in Guangzhou, at Transsion headquarters.
Shen Fei was sitting in his office when Li Qing told him about the news released by Shinshin Jio.
"Boss, Anil has made his move. The Reliable Jio has the same specs as the Mi Note, but it's $30 cheaper, and Mi's reputation is starting to crumble."
Shen Fei picked up his phone and looked at the message. He could only say that both sides were incredibly stupid.
"Mr. Lei has really learned his lesson this time, but that's not the biggest one yet."
Li Qing nodded silently. After all, although the rice business was in dire straits, at least it was still profitable.
This is nothing like what India expected.
After all, when Transsion entered the Indian market, Shenfei had already explained to everyone that the so-called "Made in India" was a joke.
The supporting facilities are simply not up to par, and the workers' skills are low... These are all minor jokes.
"Boss, should we take this opportunity to increase our investment in India?"
Shen Fei looked at the tablet and shook his head slightly.
Transsion's reputation in India isn't much better right now either.
As for why this happened, it's all thanks to a certain competitor.
After all, with the help of competitors, the sister models of Transsion's Spake series have been revealed.
The appearance and configuration are exactly the same, but the price is $249 in the Indian market, while it's $229 in Southeast Asia and $199 in Africa. Furthermore, their batteries are not 2000mAh, but 3000mAh. Ironically, the Indian market has the highest price and the lowest cost-performance ratio.
As a result, a lot of negative articles appeared online, criticizing Transsion, but the smooth system still made many people pay for it.
"Don't rush."
Let them fight like dogs for a while. The price war between rice and Shih-shih is just wasting their resources.
However, Trustworthiness is still too weak. We can introduce them to some cheaper channels to lower their costs.
Then we can simply reap the benefits.
Li Qing nodded quickly, having recently dismantled some outdated and discarded mobile phones.
It's definitely time to clear out some inventory of flash memory, storage, screens, and CPUs.
"Mr. Shen, I understand. I'll arrange for someone to go tomorrow."
"By the way, what about our Spake2?"
"The old plan will be released in May, no rush."
The most important thing now is to warm up our new product.
Li Qing nodded, after all, the new flagship imaging camera had already been designed.
Just then, Shen Fei suddenly gave him a test question.
"Li Qing, do you know why Lei Jun is in such a bad situation?"
"Because he was in too much of a hurry!"
The entire Transsion system has a common answer to this question.
That's because Lei Jun wanted to win too much.
As the first stop for exporting rice, he wanted to replicate his success in China in India, so that he could then expand into other countries.
But he forgot one thing: India is not China.
Although China and India share a common feature—that their rules are not perfect—China's rules are becoming more and more transparent, while India's rules are becoming increasingly vague.
In China, you can win with your products and marketing.
But in India, you first need to learn how to deal with crocodiles.
Lei Jun believes that he and Transsion are both pawns, but he overlooks the fact that Transsion has its own channels and its own industrial chain.
He doesn't depend on anyone; any crocodile that wants to bite him should first check how strong its own teeth are.
Lu Mingyuan serves as a cautionary tale.
At that moment, Li Qing suddenly thought of something.
"President Shen, do you still remember Lu Mingyuan?"
Shen Fei found the name somewhat familiar, but couldn't quite place it; after all, it should be someone who was trash.
"That old man is..."
"Oh, it's him. What's wrong?"
"His mobile phone company recently received a round of financing, with an investment of $5 million and a 40% stake."
According to our investigation, it is related to Mukesh.
"It's okay, it's just one more customer. Level 3 observation is fine."
Level 3 observation means sending a small team to keep a close eye on their actions. They don't need to pay special attention, but they can't be ignored either. They just need to report back every month.
After Li Qing left, Shen Fei began to think.
After all, in his previous life, Lei Jun's Mijia business and Mijia cars were actually quite good. I wonder what he will choose for his next startup.
However, he did have a suggestion: why not go sell rice? That way, the name of the grain mill would truly be well-deserved.
…………
At 10:2 AM on February 27th, Transsion's official Weibo account updated again, and all fans received a notification sound.
Just when they thought the system had updated the gameplay again, their eyes widened in surprise.
It's a poster.
The poster features a gradient background, transitioning from dark blue to light gold, with a beam of light passing through the lens aperture in the center.
The copy is just one line: "Faster, stronger, stylish and elegant."
On March 13th, the radiant light and sound arrived as promised.
There were no product images, no specifications, nothing at all, but this one picture instantly went viral.
"Radiant Sound? Transsion's new series?"
"Aren't they going down the same path as Apple? Are they going to follow the dual flagship strategy like Samsung?"
"It seems to be mainly for photography, the aperture pattern is too obvious."
"Although the S series is an all-around flagship with excellent photography capabilities, it is well-rounded in all aspects, resulting in no single outstanding feature."
This Light & Rhythm series should primarily focus on imaging.
The "Digital Chat Station" account posted a Weibo message half an hour after the poster was released:
"Light Rhythm Sequence, Transsion's new flagship imaging technology."
The enhanced version of the TaiShan 910 chip, manufactured using a 14nm process, achieves a benchmark score of 5.
The key feature is the dual rear cameras, featuring two brand-new self-developed sensors, which offer superior imaging capabilities compared to the S series.
Moreover, this time the main feature is the gradient color. The actual device is amazing. The level of secrecy is very high, and they dare not leak it at all.
However, the algorithm used for this photo is truly amazing, unparalleled in the world.
