159: 15th Motorcycle

The iphone 4 had switched to the self-developed A4 chip, which marked the beginning of Apple's self-developed chips.

It was also the first time the Apple digital series used its own chip; logically speaking, with the increase in self-developed components, Steve Jobs should have had plenty of confidence.

After all, it had become more perfect.

But when faced with the Taishan 900, he didn't have much confidence, and that sliver of uncertainty grew ever larger in his heart.

He had to raise this issue at the board meeting.

...

Back at the launch event, Shen Fei stood on stage, waiting for the cheers to subside slightly.

"What I just talked about was the configuration, so let's talk about the price."

An iPhone 3GS appeared on the big screen, with a suggested starting price of 4,999 yuan written next to it.

Then, the transsion s2 appeared, with a huge question mark hanging next to it.

"Compared to the transsion s2, does our competitor's product have a Retina display? No."

"Does it have a 4000mAh battery? No."

"Does it have 22.5W super fast charging? No."

"Does it have a self-developed chip? Still no."

Every time Shen Fei said "no," the audience laughed.

The legendary device on social media seemed to be just that.

At this moment, many people realized that as the pioneer of the Smartphone, Apple had merely assembled parts from its supply chain and started promoting an ecosystem based on iOS.

This seemed to be the same layout as Transsion, but Transsion was moving faster than them.

As the first Smartphone released, Steve Jobs' vision was indeed unique, but the actual experience did not live up to his hype.

A small spark began to rise in everyone's hearts; Apple didn't seem that great after all...

"For such a mediocre phone in every aspect, its price is 4,999 yuan."

"As the transsion s2, which surpasses it in every way, how much should its price be set at?"

Someone in the audience started shouting: "1999, take down Honor."

"2999!"

"3699?"

"3999!"

Shen Fei waved his hand, and the audience quieted down.

"Those shouting 1999 are just here to make trouble; at that price, we wouldn't even cover the cost."

"However, I just heard someone say the correct price. Its pricing is a bit more expensive than the Mate, but compared to Apple, it's a great deal."

"Its price is..."

The price numbers on the big screen began to scroll, finally settling on: 3,999 yuan.

The configuration for this combination is 512MB+16GB.

The price for 512MB+32GB is 4,299 yuan.

The Ultimate Edition with 1GB+32GB is priced at 4,699.

The audience became lively again: "It's 1,000 yuan cheaper than Apple, yet the configuration completely surpasses it. It's really quite good."

But there were always some killjoys who immediately flipped out upon seeing this price.

"A Chinese phone selling for this much? Are you asking for death?"

"This price-performance ratio is quite high, and didn't Mr. Shen say that Chinese brands can also make high-end products?"

"This is the real price-performance ratio; you get what you pay for."

Mr. Ren in the audience also clapped excitedly; this pricing left them with plenty of room to survive...

The Mate is worth looking forward to...

As for Honor, just follow Xiaomi; maybe I should transfer Zhao Ming back, after all, the future of the mobile business is bright!

Shen Fei waited until everyone calmed down a little before continuing: "The price of 3,999 is indeed not cheap, but its value is very high."

He looked at the audience.

"Chinese brands have been around for so many years, and it's always been said that cheap goods aren't good."

"Today, the transsion s2 tells everyone that good goods don't have to be expensive."

Letting everyone cheer, he continued: "More importantly, the good goods are made in China."

"Its 'China-content' is very high, and it will be further improved in the future."

"In order to let the world hear China's voice, the transsion s2 will also be launched in multiple countries."

"In order to pass the review as quickly as possible, apart from the Africa region where it will be called transsion s2, it will be called Motorola S2 in other regions."

The Motorola boot animation appeared on the big screen again.

That phrase "Hello, Moto!" left many people in the audience stunned again...

Before they could react, Shen Fei had already started introducing it.

It was very brief, but the amount of information was huge.

"At the beginning of the month, our shareholder Huaxin Technology officially acquired Motorola's mobile phone business and officially merged them under Transsion Technology."

"It will serve as our high-end sub-brand for the international market, sending out China's voice to the world."

What?

Motorola was acquired?

Many of the audience members stood up subconsciously; they couldn't believe that Motorola, the pioneer of digital products, was just gone like that.

Seeing the shocked crowd, Shen Fei smiled.

Originally, this segment was not in the launch event. As for Motorola, the only thing he cared about was the communication patents, but later the team thought about it and decided to make good use of this brand.

If the United States really bans it, selling it later wouldn't be impossible.

While the audience was whispering to each other, Shen Fei stood in the center of the stage and gave a summary.

"Five years ago, Transsion went to Africa because it couldn't survive in China; two years later, Transsion is back because we are qualified to come back."

He looked at the guest seats below.

Zhang Shiqing was his background, and Mr. Ren also had a certain background. Liu Qiangdong helped them solve the e-commerce platform issue...

As well as the researchers he "kidnapped" back from the United States; these were the reasons for Transsion's confidence in returning to China.

"With our efforts, I believe that Chinese brands can also make high-end products and can also be respected."

He bowed deeply.

"Thank you all, I hope everyone supports us."

The whole audience stood up, and a round of loud applause erupted again.

After the launch event, Shen Fei met Zhang Shiqing backstage.

Zhang Shiqing patted his shoulder: "Well said."

Shen Fei smiled: "Dad, you didn't leave early. Is there not much work over there..."

Zhang Shiqing's expression changed instantly; being an Executive was not just a change in status, but also a change in workload.

This break was something he had fought hard to get; how could he possibly go back so early?

So he shook his head, coughed lightly, and pretended that he also wanted to go back to work, but alas...: "Leave? It's my son-in-law's launch event."

"Dad, who doesn't want to slack off?"

Seeing Shen Fei expose his little thoughts, Zhang Shiqing scratched his head embarrassedly, and then he looked at Shen Fei again, with a look of unprecedented approval in his eyes.

"Xiao Fei, you proved one thing today."

"What thing?"

"China can indeed afford to make high-end brands."

The moment the launch event ended, transsion s2 hit the hot search, along with the news of Motorola's acquisition.

The related news sparked huge discussions and also drove the sales of the transsion s2.

The moment offline stores announced the start of sales, many people immediately crowded in front of the counters, scrambling to hand over cash or bank cards one by one.

"Store manager, give me the top configuration directly."
