Technology: Start by selling mobile phones

【Ding……! 】

[Congratulations to the host for selling over 10,000 units of his first TV product, with a favorable rating of over 97%, and for successfully completing the hidden mission - "TV: Fledgling". 】

[Congratulations on receiving the mission reward—a good (B-level) technology gift pack. 】

Early the next morning, Mo Ran was checking files in the office when a clear system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.

Mo Ran was not surprised,

According to the task prompt, the Nietzsche B43 TV has been on the market for more than a month and has completed the sales task of 10,000 units.

Immediately afterwards, the beep continued to sound.

【Do you want to open it now? 】

Mo Ran opened it without hesitation.

【Ding……! 】

[Congratulations on getting the task reward: a mid-performance computer motherboard design drawing, quality: good (B grade), available for download. 】

[It was detected that the host obtained the ‘mid-performance computer motherboard design drawings’ and successfully unlocked the ‘computer’ category. 】

Computer motherboard design drawings?

Mo Ran pursed his lips and remembered that in the last lottery, he got a design drawing of a children's phone watch, which was of little use.

But this time, I actually got a computer motherboard design drawing, which seemed to be of little use.

"This lottery system is really weird..."

A sigh.

Compared with the design drawings of children's phone watches, the computer motherboard still aroused Mo Ran's slightest interest.

Click for details.

[Medium-performance computer motherboard design drawings (Level B): Design drawings for the current world's top-grade computer motherboards. 】

[An excellent computer motherboard will improve the quality of the complete computer. The host can produce the computer motherboard separately for sale, or it can be sold together with the complete computer. 】

[You can get corresponding points by selling the motherboard alone, but the points will be higher when sold together with the complete computer. 】

oh?

Mo Ran was slightly startled.

According to the system prompts, he can earn points by producing this computer motherboard alone.

It can also be assembled into a computer and sold to earn points.

but.

Soon he shook his head.

Both options may not be realized for the time being.

It goes without saying that it is assembled into a Nietzsche computer and sold.

Now my mobile phone only has a computer motherboard design drawing. If I want to sell and assemble computers, I have to purchase other CPUs, memory sticks, hard drives, graphics cards, and a series of computer spare parts.

This is the equivalent of "making dumplings just for a plate of vinegar."

It is also difficult to produce computer motherboards alone.

Not to mention the problems on the production side,

Any motherboard manufacturer has at least three to five motherboard models. Nietzsche only has one motherboard model and wants to put it on the market?

Yes, but not necessary at this time.

Mo Ran thought about it, and the design drawings of the computer motherboard that he drew were indeed a bit useless.

After putting the matter aside in frustration, he took the opportunity to open the points in the system and take a look.

After several months of sales on Pinxixi, the points in the system have accumulated to about 8.5 million.

After looking at the points mall, 8.5 million points can almost buy a small technology that is about a year ahead.

but.

Based on the current situation of Nietzsche Company, Mo Ran has no plans to buy technology.

After exiting the system, Mo Ran thought about Nietzsche on TV.

Once the Nietzsche B43 TV was launched on the market, sales were unexpectedly good.

Coupled with the recent launch of the 2+4 warranty, it has ushered in a wave of sales climax.

but.

Although sales are good, it is undeniable that Nietzsche TV's profits are indeed somewhat low.

The cost is 850 yuan and the price is 999 yuan. After deducting shipping and OEM fees, there is only a profit of about 100 yuan...

so.

It happens to be on sale for more than a month now. Do you want to increase the price at this time?

After thinking about it, Mo Ran finally decided not to adjust the price for the time being.

Apart from anything else, the price increase immediately after the 2+4 warranty plan was released will inevitably leave people speechless.

In addition, Mo Ran also thought clearly.

The products that Nietzsche now earns points for are mobile phones, tablets and TVs.

After all, tablets are a niche market, and even if the overall sales volume is not high, plus they currently do not have the technology to improve the performance of tablets, it makes little sense to continue to develop new tablets.

Needless to say on mobile phones.

The third model of Nietzsche

After thinking of this, Mo Ran began to think about another thing.

Should we pursue the victory and continue to launch the 55-inch Nietzsche TV?

soon.

Jiang Lan appeared in the office.

"Mr. Mo, technically speaking, there is not much difference between designing a 43-inch TV and designing a 55-inch TV."

"In terms of production and manufacturing, Wanglong Electrical Appliance Factory's 43-inch and 55-inch models are both fine."

"but……"

"but?"

Mo Ran glanced at Jiang Lan, who was about to speak, and said:

"Just say it."

Jiang Lan smiled slightly.

"Mr. Mo, do you still remember the configuration of our 43-inch TV?"

"Our Nietzsche 43-inch TV is a 'non-smart traditional TV'. It is precisely because of this that there is no TV chip or electronic signal decoder, which gives us a slight cost advantage."

"Furthermore, according to statistics from our after-sales department, in fact, most of our 43-inch TVs are sold to rural areas, towns, or some relatively low-income groups."

Mo Ran nodded.

He also admitted that the 43-inch TV is indeed a little small and is not a mainstream TV size in 2016.

Most of the customers who buy the 43-inch model are because it is cheap.

Jiang Lan continued:

"but……"

"If we launch a 55-inch TV, we will enter the mainstream size."

"In this size range, there are relatively fewer customers in rural areas and towns, and more customers in cities."

"In this case, we have to consider a problem."

“Should we make a ‘non-smart traditional TV’ for the next 55-inch TV, or should we follow the mainstream and make a ‘smart TV’?”

After the words fell, Mo Ran immediately frowned.

He had understood Jiang Lan's words very clearly.

If we continue to make 55-inch "non-smart traditional TVs", there will undoubtedly be fewer customers in the city.

After all, many young people still like smart TVs.

But if we follow the market and make a 55-inch "smart TV", there is still a huge problem.

TV content!

Mo Ran suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

As someone who has been there, he knows.

Among the major Internet companies, LeTV used to be the best in producing TV content.

Not only did it create LeTV Sports, becoming the only platform on the Internet that owns the copyrights for all the five major European leagues, but it also bought out many TV series...

The most popular one is The Legend of Zhen Huan.

wrong,

Legend of Zhen Huan, LeTV?

Mo Ran was suddenly startled,

He can be sure that LeTV and Jia Accounting will be there next year.

That is to say, in 2017, LeTV will go far away from home... and LeTV will completely sink.

Besides,

It's 2016 now, and the copyrights for movies, variety shows, and TV series have not been sold to the sky...

Next year, there are even several popular TV series that will be released, one of which is "In the Name of the People".

Think of this.

He immediately found the important direction of Nietzsche's smart TV.

"Jiang Lan..."
