Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 252 The fourth “giant”, 2BAT?

In the past, Xiaomi improved the welfare benefits of workers in its OEM factories. Although on the surface it incurred additional costs in the short term, from a long-term perspective, the efficiency of Xiaomi's production lines, product quality, and yield rate have been significantly improved and have advantages over other companies' production lines.

Whether it is Inventec, BYD or Foxconn, there is sufficient data and cases to support that overtime work does not bring about improved efficiency. It can only be like the little blue pill, a short-lived rise followed by long-term weakness.

Companies that treat their employees as consumables will inevitably bear the cost of the backlash from long-term wear and tear of the consumables.

Raising prices and thinking in reverse are Chen Mo's attempts and efforts to create a good OEM ecosystem.

Chen Mo added, "Of course, when placing an order and signing an agreement, we need to supervise the extra money and make sure they spend it wisely. Don't let us add extra money and then let the factory directly give it to the management, and then the people below will get any benefits."

Lei Jun nodded and said, "I know how to do this. Xiaomi is a big customer now. If you dare to pretend to obey me but actually disobey me, I'm sorry. I will look for other companies for the next batch of orders.

But I think it’s better to build a factory by myself instead of going through so much trouble. I have money!”

The impact on the high-end market has been very successful judging from the current data, with revenue exceeding 1 billion a day. Due to the current selling price of 50/2999 per unit, Xiaomi's profit margin has also increased, with a net profit of at least 3999 billion a day.

Lei and Chen were impressed by how fast they made money. They couldn't help but curse that Xiaomi was in such a bad situation, while Samsung, Apple, and Nokia, which had doubled their earnings, were making a lot of money.
How dark must one's conscience be to make money so comfortably.

It turns out that capitalists are all greedy.

No wonder one wants to control the GOV, one can throw away the car that cost tens of billions of dollars, and one can go bankrupt at will. This is the willful capital.
This is also the reason why Lei Jun wants to build a factory. If you have money, you can stand tall.

Chen Mo supported Lei Jun's proposal and encouraged him, "Then just build it~"

"Actually, I've considered it. Changping in the north and Yizhuang in the south are both good. What do you suggest?"

"As far as land prices are concerned, the land prices in the south are much cheaper than those in the north, and Mi'an Xinsheng is right in Yizhuang, which is in the north and south. If you ask me, you should choose Xiajian!"

After hearing this, Lei Jun looked at the other party's extremely sincere eyes and felt a little suspicious. He always felt that this guy was scolding him.

Xiaomi’s press conference got off to a good start, and of course Bi’an is not willing to lag behind.

January 1, evening, Beijing International Convention and Exhibition Center.

The Bi'an Technology Conference is about to begin.
The Beijing International Convention Center is twice as large as the Peking University Centennial Lecture Hall.

In addition to the above reason, there is another small factor, which is that I don’t want to always disturb the students of Peking University.

Every time people cheer at a press conference, we always receive some feedback that it is disturbing and unethical.

It was approaching 8pm.

The venue at the International Conference Center, which can accommodate 5 people, was packed, and the front row was filled with all of Chen Mo's business friends who had a good relationship with him.

The whole is divided into several waves.

The first wave was Lei Jun and his friends.

Lei Jun is not to be mentioned. In addition, Shunwei's Xu Dalai, Kingsoft's Qiu Bojun, Vancl's Chen Nian, and YY's Li Xueling also came. YY is also the only live broadcast partner of Bi'an. The second wave is the friends who are unanimously optimistic about Bi'an and Chen Mo.

Liu Qin from Morningside, Tong Shihao from Qiming, a young man named Zhou Shouzi representing DST Capital China, Xiong Xiaoge from IDG, Xing Shanhu from Ledong Investment, Ye Kai from Wanxie Technology, and Liu Yong from Yinhan Technology.
The third wave was some Internet veterans. Chen Mo sent the invitation letter, but he didn’t expect that the other party would actually give them face.

These people are the three former portal giants Ding Lei of NetEase, Zhang Chaoyang of Sohu, and Cao Guowei of Sina. According to Ding Lei, they are here to learn, Zhang Chaoyang is here to watch, and Cao Guowei is here to show his support for Chen Tong.
In addition to the large lineup of guests, there are also more than 40 media reporters from portals, video websites, local websites, etc. This time there is no external interference, and as long as you have a normal brain, you will know how to report it.

They are all aware in the industry that there are currently two major sources of traffic on the Internet, one is Xiaomi, and the other is Bi'an, and every press conference always creates a big event.

The Xiaomi press conference two days ago is the best proof.

Even the Internet media circle has been saying that there are peak and off-peak seasons in the past two years, that is, Xiaomi's press conferences in January and August every year are the peak seasons, and April and November are the off-seasons.
Most of the rest are players from all over the country.

The other side finally looked like what a press conference should have looked like.

The number of online viewers in the live broadcast room of YY Bi'an Technology's press conference has exceeded 30.

Among the netizens who watched the live broadcast, there were three special groups of audiences in Beijing, Hangzhou and Shenzhen, who were also silently watching the live broadcast on the other side.

They are the three real mountains of the Internet today, Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent and their leaders.
Internet giants all have their own information security centers.

In addition to preventing hacker attacks, it is also responsible for collecting and analyzing online public opinion and information on some competing companies.

At the end of each year, we will summarize some phenomena and companies that may currently attract attention.

At the end of this year, the analysis report was placed on the desks of Robin Li and Ma Dashen, and the analysis content of one of the opponents was similar.

Just like when Zhang Rujing saw the information submitted by Chen Mo, the rapid development of Bi'an attracted the fearful eyes of the three companies.

Although after two years of development, it has a valuation of tens of billions of US dollars and has raised 5 million US dollars in financing, it is still a matter of the mobile phone industry and feels some distance away from the Internet. But Bi'an Technology is different.

One year has passed since Bi'an was founded. WeChat was separated from Xiaomi and has grown rapidly in Bi'an, and currently sits firmly at the top of the mobile social software list.

They have come up with a few games, and each one of them becomes a hit as soon as it is launched online, whether it is the social games on WeChat before or the various types of mobile games that come later. To put it bluntly, it is not an exaggeration to say that they have monopolized the current Chinese mobile game market.

Supported by WeChat and mobile games, even the Bi'an Mobile Assistant has developed rapidly, and is second only to 91 Assistant, which has been running for several years.

A random workplace communication app, the one called Zhiyan, made these three people hate it even more. They were so cautious about releasing policies that were beneficial to the management that they were afraid of causing protests from employees.

When people tried to communicate with Zhiyan, it was like a drop in the ocean. They didn't give the big companies any face at all and even refused to disclose the information of some anonymous employees. The HRs of the three big companies were so angry that they gritted their teeth.

In just one year, the emergence of Bi'an with a valuation of tens of billions made the heads of these three companies feel uneasy.

They are afraid that a new giant will emerge besides the current three giants, and judging from the trend in the report, this possibility is quite high, which can't help but arouse their vigilance.

The three people have different reactions to the rise of the other side.
