Chapter 1385 [The Huge Profits of Routing]
That evening, when the Beijing Stock Exchange opened, Apple's stock price plummeted -7% at the opening, hit a maximum intraday drop of -13.56%, and finally closed with a sharp drop of -11.97%.
The reason for the sharp drop was Fang Hong's Weibo post, which indirectly allowed investors to discover that Apple's sales in the Russian market had been halved, because Apple's current financial report did not disclose the data.
Although Fang Hong's Weibo post did not mention the sales volume of Apple phones in the Big Goose market, the total shipment volume of phones in the Big Goose market in the third quarter is there, so the error will not be too big. At the same time, the sales volume data of Staryu Technology's STAR5 phones in the market in the third quarter was announced.
This mobile phone is not like Xiaomi, MeiZ and other mid-to-low-end brands. The STAR5 phone is aimed at the high-end market and competes directly with Apple and Samsung phones.
In other words, every STAR5 phone sold by Xingyu Technology basically means one less Samsung or Apple phone will be sold, because the market of Goose has 1.5 million people, and about one-fifth of them are replacing their phones, and the annual shipment volume is expected to be around 3000 million units.
Moreover, high-end phones do not include the elderly and children, and are mainly aimed at young people, especially college students. In fact, in the high-end phone market, for every 100 high-end phones sold, 62 are STAR5 phones, which already accounts for more than half of the high-end market. Apple and Samsung combined cannot beat it, with sales 1.25 times more than STAR.
Fang Hong posted a Weibo post announcing the overseas market sales data of Xingyu Technology's STAR5 mobile phone. Anyone with a little knowledge of junior high school mathematics can do a rough reverse calculation and conclude that Apple and Samsung's sales in the Russian market have been halved.
To make matters worse for Apple and Samsung, the STAR5 phone not only sold well in the Russian market, but also had strong sales in other overseas markets, and was entering the market through online channels.
With the strong performance of the Ross market, a conclusion has been drawn that industry insiders have to admit, that is, the competitiveness of the STAR5 mobile phone is so strong that even the two brands of Apple and Samsung combined cannot withstand it and will be shattered at the slightest touch.
Lao Mei is even more afraid to open up the European magnesium market now. Even before it is opened up, it has sold 800 million units worldwide. Excluding the Russian market, there are still more than 400 million units. It can achieve such outstanding results if it is just routed, so how can it be allowed in normally?
Moreover, the cost of wiring is too expensive. The price of the basic version of the STAR5 mobile phone has been reduced by 1500 yuan after the semiconductor industry chain has reduced its price tenfold. The current retail price is 6199 yuan. The top-end version has been reduced by 8999 yuan from the previous 1800 yuan, and the current retail price is 7199 yuan.
STAR5手机走线出去后的最终价格是多少呢？基础版是3000美元，顶配版是3800美元，折合人民币分别是2.05万元和2.6万元。
Compared with the domestic retail price, it is +231% and +261% more expensive. Europeans have to spend more than the price of three mobile phones to buy one. It's so exaggerated.
This is why an industrial electronic product has spawned a large number of wiring businesses. Although there are considerable risks, the profits are really too high. The wiring profits of MIX headsets are even greater, reaching about 300%. This product now has a discontinuous technological advantage in the field of smart wearable headsets. It is hailed as a product of a different era and is considered to be five or even ten years ahead.
OMG has no shortage of wealthy consumers who are willing to pay a higher price to buy early and enjoy it early.
With such huge profits, it would be strange if an online industrial chain did not emerge. Their procurement channels are also simple and crude, that is, they purchase goods directly from Xingyu Technology's offline direct stores or flagship stores in China at retail prices.
Because even if you purchase goods through retail machines, there is double or even triple the profit margin, and each link in the channel can obtain considerable profit distribution.
Xingyu Technology is not jealous of this, and even acquiesces to it. Anyway, the company can earn a reasonable profit by selling one machine. This has only benefits and no disadvantages for Xingyu Technology. Sales have increased, and the wiring industry chain has indirectly helped it to expand overseas markets. Such good things are rare.
Moreover, they are very clear in private that every one of those customers who purchase in large quantities at retail prices is playing tricks. Anyway, there is no problem with production capacity now, so they can purchase as much as they want. As for what they do after the purchase, it has nothing to do with Xingyu Technology.
As the profit of wiring is so high, after Xingyu Technology's STAR5 mobile phone entered the market of Big Goose in the second half of this year, some people there gradually became interested and started to follow suit and engage in the wiring business.
Purchase directly in Erros at retail prices and sell across the East European border to West Europe.
Current market analysts estimate that the shipment of mobile phones in the Ross market this year will be 3000 million units, and the data for the fourth quarter of this year will certainly exceed expectations by a large margin. People will be surprised to find that there are only so many people in the Big Goose family, but it has strangely sold more high-end products. Could it be that each of the Big Goose consumers has more than one mobile phone?
The routing channels are becoming more and more diversified. Some routing teams have even recruited some technical experts to directly dismantle the products into components, assemble them after transit, and then sell them.
It has to be said that Lao Mei has done everything he can to ban it, but sometimes the effect is counterproductive, because for human beings, distance creates beauty. The more it is banned, the more curious people become, and the more they yearn for it.
Moreover, showing off is really not limited to any region or group of people. To put it more directly, it is showing superiority. How to show superiority? It means that I have something that you don’t have, I can afford it but you can’t, and when we can both afford it, I can buy it but you can’t.
The so-called sense of superiority and happiness are all derived from comparison.
It's the same principle as luxury cars. It can be said to be showing superiority, but its essence is to use these external objects to allow a person to demonstrate his ability in his circle of relationships. If I can afford it but you can't, it means that I am richer than you. If you both can afford it but I can, it means that I have more connections and more abilities than you. Through the display of these external objects, a person's status in his circle of relationships is highlighted.
If a person wants to let others know how awesome he is, it is unlikely for a normal person to go around shouting to others how awesome he is. Not only will it make him seem foolish, but others may not believe it. However, as long as he quietly drives a luxury car or does other things that show off that others cannot have, he can achieve his goal.
To do this, they are willing to pay a higher premium.
Apple's stock price plummeted and evaporated $1030 billion due to a Weibo post by Fang Hong. Samsung was not much better, but Apple was the worst hit. The company's market value was finally raised to the $8000 billion mark by Youong Capital. Because magnesium stocks cannot collapse, these big stocks have to be held up.
As a result, Fang Hong made more than 7000 billion yuan with just one Weibo post, and now the market price has fallen to around billion US dollars. Youang Capital was forced to take over because global investors are not optimistic.
What scares those European and American technology giants the most is that the two flagship products of Xingyu Technology are more than twice as expensive as the retail price, but they still have impressive sales. This is what scares them the most.
In other words, assuming that the STAR5 mobile phone and MIX head-mounted display device can enter the European and American markets, but a 200% tariff is imposed on these two products, sales of tens of millions can still be achieved under this harsh hypothetical scenario.
This is not just a sweaty story, it's simply a horror story. Block it! Block it hard! It must be blocked to death!
The door to the European magnesium market must not be opened to Xingyu Technology. If it really lets it in, Apple might become the next Nokia.
As for the wiring industry chain, Laomei now has to pay attention to it and is determined to make great efforts to crack down on it. It cannot allow the electronic products of Xingyu Technology to flow into the European and American market step by step for such a long time.
Apple is really out of options now and can only ban, ban, and ban again, because bans can only hold out for a while. If there is no ban, even a giant like Apple may die suddenly within a year or two, and may even collapse faster than Nokia did back then.
