Technology Bigshot Chapter 613: : Then build one yourself]


……

Ren Hong nodded and said, "It does not conflict with the strategic layout of the parent company and the release of new products by Luis, but it is only adjusted. When will the product be available?"

The director of the production department saw Ren Hong's eyes on him, and immediately said: "With the intense preparation and planning during this period of time, the finalization of the product has been completed, and the product production line has been established at the fastest speed. It is expected that two There will be 8 production lines in a month, and 30 million units will be shipped within half a year.”

"First hold a new product launch conference, and then officially launch the product to the market. This is impossible. Fortunately, the problem is not very big." Ren Hong nodded and said, "What do you think about the pricing of the product? ?"

said: "The positioning of the new product s3 is a smart life housekeeper, which is a smart home product and a non-wearable smart device. The production cost is controlled in the range of 7,000 yuan, but the mature anti-gravity technology is one of the biggest selling points and highlights. One, we have been taking the high-end route. I think the price can be sold at $2,000. How about the price of $1,999? The housekeeper is also worth the price, and even a little more expensive will not be excessive.”

A set of 2,000 US dollars is more than 10,000 yuan when converted into RMB.

"$2,000..." Ren Hong muttered to himself, the executives in the conference room were also negotiating with each other.

Someone said: "I think $2,000 is still too low. Such a product should be placed at $3,500 to meet its actual value. We are taking the high-end route, and the general public will not choose to buy this in a short time. This is a non-essential item. The life housekeeper is not like a mobile communication smart device. Also, don’t forget that this is a non-wearable smart home device. The clear positioning of the s-3 life housekeeper makes this product only need one set for a family. now..."

"It makes sense, but the price is too harsh. The cost price is more than 1,000 US dollars. You want to sell it for 3,500 US dollars. The profit of a set is 2,500 US dollars. Black heart, haha!"

The head of the marketing department also spoke, saying: "I think $3,500 is very good. Our positioning is high-end. Director Lu also said that this is an additional consumer product, and its status is higher than that of mobile communication equipment after all. The status of the s

"Obviously, the main markets for such high-end consumer goods are still Europe and the United States, and developed regions. The consumer groups are also middle-class families facing the world. This group has the spending power and needs."

"Such an excellent future sci-fi home product, and at the same time middle-class families are the mainstay of society, and they are busier than ordinary families. The life housekeeper can play the functions of a family assistant or private secretary, which is tailor-made for them. product, for the middle class to pay more than $3,000 to get a personal assistant, it must be very happy, at least I think so.”

In the end, the head of the marketing department laughed: "After all, the middle class can't afford the salary of a private secretary, and a life steward can perform functions such as a private secretary and a life assistant, not only the skills he has mastered are better than those of a private secretary. There are more secretaries, and a set of $3500 is a good deal!"

Ren Hong saw that most of them liked the price. After thinking for a moment, he immediately decided: "Then sell it for 3,500 knives, and the unit price is 3,499 US dollars. The announced cost manufacturing price is changed to about 3,200 US dollars."

Ren Hong doesn't feel that he is a profiteer at all. Although it is indeed a profiteer's behavior, the standard for determining the value of a product does not only depend on the cost price. Matrix technology needs money everywhere, and it is rare. Expensive.

Besides, anti-gravity technology, even if the price is raised to 5,000 US dollars, no one thinks it is inappropriate. They will only think that it is very expensive and not affordable for ordinary people, but it is definitely worth the price. This is a science fiction dare. A complete product of the future, at first glance, it is a high-tech product.

Even at the beginning, Ren Hong believed that the integration of anti-gravity technology would require a lot of cost, but Xiao Xuanyu cracked the technology of Lanshuiren. Lanshuiren's anti-gravity technology is already very mature, which is inconceivable to humans, but In the eyes of Bluewater people, anti-gravity technology is as ordinary and ordinary as a mobile phone.

Time passed quickly, Ren Hong discussed many things at the high-level meeting of Luis Company, and also explained and assigned some tasks.

The release of this new product is too abrupt. Too many matters cannot be discussed and dealt with in one or two hours. With Ding Yang's reminder, Ren Hong also pays attention to the time. After explaining the main things, he will Left the meeting room early.

Leaving Luis's office, Ren Hong met with Elon Musk and Larry Page non-stop.

The new release of Luis is very important, but this time the cooperation of giants is even more important.

At this moment, the three of them are in the same room. Elon Musk has calmed down and obviously knows it.

After meeting, I immediately cut to the topic, everyone is not in a sloppy style.

Musk and Page are obviously very excited, because the next three parties are going to carry out a huge plan that can subvert the world. The future is just around the corner, how can we not be excited?

"Honestly, I'm so excited until now, I even want to use anti-gravity technology to build an unprecedented city in the sky, the kind on the sea." Elon Musk laughed.

The two just laughed when they heard the words, thinking he was joking.

"You two are really not humorous." Musk, who felt the cold atmosphere, said helplessly.

"Let's talk about the main point." Ren Hong smiled and said: "The San Francisco trial can be said to be stillborn, at least there must be major adjustments and a three-dimensional transportation network. To be honest, this is indeed ambitious and ambitious. It's exciting, but the facts are in front of us, and some difficulties must be faced. We are all inexperienced newbies. I don't think there is any super city in the United States or in our country that is willing to let us toss it. After all, it is not a petty mess. , what we want to do is to subvert the modern urban operation model.”

"Indeed!" Larry Page nodded in agreement and said: "It is conceivable that once we want to build a three-dimensional transportation network, there will be subversive changes in urbanization, such as the Road Traffic Management Act. Major revisions, new skills for driver's licenses, etc., there may be an urban air traffic management department such as 'air traffic control', in short, the area affected is too wide."

"The construction of a three-dimensional transportation network will affect the normal operation of a super metropolis. Without a good example and statement, few mayors are willing to let us toss."

"Then let's build a city ourselves!" Ren Hong suddenly said, and the two of them were startled. Ignoring their surprised expressions, Ren Hong said to himself: "With a successful The example is easy to handle. The traffic pressure of the super metropolis will force them to come and ask us to help them build a three-dimensional transportation network. Are you afraid that you will not be able to sell locomotives after the transportation network is completed? Cities all over the world are our goals. , change the world!"

"A metropolis cannot be built overnight." Larry Page said that although Ren Hong's proposal is very exciting and exciting, it must face reality.

"That's because you're an American." Ren Hong smiled and looked at the two of them. At the same time, he brought up a spotlight screen, opened the national map and narrowed it down to the Pearl River Delta region. He pointed to Shenzhen and said with a smile, "This is a miracle. What did it look like in the middle and late last century? Today it is one of the world's most famous super-metropolises, and it took just over 20 years for the city to go from a country road to a modern metropolis."
