Apple headquarters.

Looking at the performance report of iPhone 4S, Cook’s face became extremely gloomy:

"Who can tell me? What happened?"

"Why is the iPhone 4s selling so well all over the world, but the sales in Xia China are so low! Not to mention the increase, the iPhone 4 has dropped 25% compared to the same period last year! There is also a return rate, as high as 30%!"

"Who can tell me what's going on?"

"Since the establishment of iPhone, there has never been such a high return rate!"

Seeing Cook furious, all the senior officials looked solemn.

Vice President Cardin was also puzzled: "It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be at all. Xia Guo has always been one of our main iPhone markets, and Xia Guo users' love for our products has reached the point of belief."

"Even if it is launched in Europe and the United States in October and the last batch of Xia Guo is launched in January, they will still queue up to buy it! In order to use the iPhone, they will still wait, even if they wait three or four months! Even if the price is doubled, they will still buy it!

"

"How could this happen this time? Sales plummeted! The return rate increased greatly! Unreasonable!"

"Totally unreasonable! What happened? Paul, you have nothing to say?"

As he said that, everyone looked at Marketing Director Paul.

Paul stretched out his hand and gestured: "That's right. I also found this question strange, so I did some research. I didn't know if I didn't check. I was shocked when I checked."

"The sales of iPhone 4S dropped sharply and the return rate increased sharply, all for the same reason: it was impacted by Xphone 1!"

"Xphone 1?" Cook was stunned. He had never heard of it.

There are so many emerging mobile phone brands around the world, many of which go bankrupt within a year or two, and Cook doesn't bother to pay attention to them one by one.

"It's the new mobile phone xphone 1 launched by Xingyi Technology, a new company in Xia State."

"Xingyi Technology... sounds a bit familiar." Vice President Cardin fell into recollection: "A few months ago, the guy who bought more than 20 million chips in the empire at one time?"

Cook also came back to his senses: "Now that I think about it, it seems like this is happening. They haven't gone bankrupt yet? More than 20 million chips at a time, isn't this a hype?"

Paul's expression was extremely complicated: "At first, I thought that they were a new enterprise, and they made such a big deal from the beginning, with a big order of 25 million chips. It must be a hype. This kind of enterprise cannot survive for half a year, at most a year!"

Everyone nodded. There are such scammer companies all over the world that like to speculate, but most of them have no strength. They can only speculate and die quickly.

Paul shook his head: "But I soon discovered that we were wrong, very wrong. Not only was Xingyi Technology not a hype, it actually made a mobile phone, and it was very successful! How can I say it, better than Samsung?

, LG, HTC and other friends have all succeeded!”

"What? How is this possible?"

Hearing this, Cook was dumbfounded, the vice president was dumbfounded, and all other senior executives were shocked.

"More successful than Samsung LG? Paul, are you serious?" Vice President Cardin couldn't help but said.

Paul nodded: "Very serious. I know this sounds incredible, but in fact, they are so successful. It is not an exaggeration to say they are the King of Android Phones of the Year. Of course, they are the King of Android Phones!"

"Machine King of the Year?" Cardin burst into laughter, as if he had heard a big joke:

"Hahaha, Paul, your joke is not funny at all. Even our iPhone 4s dare not call it the king of devices. After all, the products of our friends Samsung and HTC are also very good."

Paul smiled slightly: "I know that everyone finds it incredible when I say this. Then, let me tell you a few sets of data!"

"First, on the day the Xphone 1 was launched, one million yuan was put on sale, and all of it was sold out in more than an hour!"

Cook: "..."

Senior executives: "..."

"Second, one month after Xphone 1 was launched, sales exceeded 4 million."

Cook: "..."

Senior executives: "..."

"Third, Xphone 1 has been on the market for 53 days, and sales exceeded 9 million!"

Cook: "..."

Senior executives: "..."

"Do you still think what I said is a joke?" Paul looked around at everyone.

For a moment, the entire conference room fell silent, eerily quiet.

Cook sighed: "Paul, let me ask you two questions. First, are your data true?"

"Chairman, it's absolutely true!"

"Second question, in which countries is xphone 1 sold?"

"Only Xia Guo has not sold to other countries for the time being. I don't know whether it is due to production capacity or fear of patent prosecution."

At this time, Cook couldn't sit still: "What? Only in Xiaguo, 9 million units were sold in less than two months? Crazy, really crazy!"

Cardin also looked solemn: "How much do they sell for? Is it super cheap? If it were expensive, there would never be such good sales!"

Paul nodded: "For the same storage version, their price is 1700 to 2500 cheaper than our iPhone 4s. The 16G version of xphone 1 only costs 3299, and comes with a Xingyi Video annual membership + Xingyi Music annual membership worth 300 yuan. 32G

The version costs 3799, and the 64G version only costs 4299!”

Hearing this, all the senior executives spoke one after another:

“The price is indeed 2,000 yuan cheaper than international brands, but it’s not cheap either.”

"Yes, at such a price, in Xia Guo, 9 million units were sold in two months. It's really scary!"

"No wonder the iPhone 4s is not selling well in Xia Guo. Returns are serious. They all bought Xphone 1 instead."

"Speaking of which, is the xphone 1 so good? Can it be compared with our iPhone 4s? Aren't Xia's domestic mobile phones all garbage?"

Paul took out an xphone 1 and showed it to everyone: "This is an xphone 1 that I bought from Xia Guo. I have just used it for two days. What should I say?"

"The Android 0 system is not as good as Apple's IOS system. In other aspects, to put it bluntly, it is not worse than iPhone 4s, and is even more advanced in many aspects!"

Hearing this, all the senior executives were dumbfounded and gathered around:

"real or fake?"

"The exterior design is quite elegant, and it looks very classy at first glance."

"Yes, it looks like high-end goods."

The vice president took it and played with it: "The texture is very good. The material is very high-end. It's more upscale than our iPhone 4s... No, it's just the same."

As he spoke, Cardin lit up the screen: "A 3-inch large screen with such a high resolution, 720P, right? The screen quality is very good, first-tier."

"The flat UI interface is fresh, simple, and simply beautiful! The system is also very smooth and responsive. No wonder the sales are so good."

Paul nodded: "Not only that, xphone 1 also integrates the AI ​​voice assistant Xiao Ai, which is no worse than Siri. Especially in the Chinese field, it is even better than Siri."

"What? It also integrates an AI voice assistant comparable to Siri?"

Cook couldn't sit still: "Our iPhone 4s has just launched Siri, and their Xiaguo company has created the same thing? Or even better than us?"

Others are also skeptical: "Paul, you are going too far. Siri is a high-tech AI company that we spent hundreds of millions of dollars to acquire. How can Xia Guo Enterprise do it?"

"That's right, and it's just a new company that has just been established. It's even more impossible!"

Seeing everyone questioning, Paul didn't bother to say anything more. He immediately took the xphone 1 and said: "Xiao Ai."

"exist."

“Call Cook!”

"Okay, we're calling Cook's number."

Then, Cook’s iPhone 4s placed on the table began to vibrate.

Cook's mouth twitched: "Are there any other functions?"

"Of course." Paul continued: "Xiao Ai."

"exist."

"how is the weather today?"

"It's sunny in Cupertino today, with temperatures ranging from minus 5 degrees to 9 degrees, which is a bit cold. The air quality is good. Please be careful to keep out the cold when you go out."

"Xiao Ai."

"exist."

"Open you to be!"

"Okay, open it for you."

…

Seeing Paul's operation, everyone in the room fell silent.

I really want not to admit it, but I have to admit it.

Xiao Ai on xphone 1 is not weaker than Siri on iPhone 4s!

"It's incredible, it's incredible!"
