"Yes, Xingyi Technology does have domineering capital and strength."

Other senior executives also spoke with emotion:

"If we had this strength, I would be more domineering than Xingyi Technology. I would just sell it for 499 and kill all our friends!"

"But it's a pity that we don't have the strength!"

The entire conference room fell silent. Everyone looked at me and me, not knowing what to do.

As soon as the Wujie AI speaker came out, it was like a snake beating seven inches away, killing all Xiaodu speakers.

"Then are we still making Xiaodu speakers?" Lu Yingxuan, president of Baidu Smart Home, couldn't help but ask.

Li Yan sighed: "What the heck, if you can't sell it for 549, and if you sell it for 499 and there's no profit, you may not be able to sell it well, so just give up. Just think that the billions are all wasted!"

"This... is good!" Lu Yingxuan responded, his expression extremely gloomy.

The smart home project went bankrupt and all his subordinates were laid off.

Now it's his own turn.

Originally, Xiaodu Audio was still around, so he still had a chance to give it another try, just in case Xiaodu Audio became popular...

But now, Xiaodu Audio is also getting colder.

“It’s not that I don’t do my best, nor does the Baidu Smart Home team don’t do their best, it’s that we got on the wrong boat!”

A sigh of helplessness.

How could they at Xingyi Technology complete all the projects but go bankrupt without even launching them?

Qu Xin, however, fell into deep thought: "The Smart Home project has invested more than one billion yuan, and it has produced some results. How about selling the technology and patents in a package? How much can we pay for it?"

Li Yan's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, but who should I sell it to? Who has too much money to accept this thing?"

"That's right, what we developed with more than one billion yuan will at least be sold for hundreds of millions. The only ones that can eat it at once are Alibaba and Goose Factory."

Qu Xin analyzed: "But it shouldn't be possible for Alibaba. They have their own smart home project and are already working on it. They won't waste money anymore. As for the Goose Factory, they have no plans in this regard. You can contact them."

Li Yan nodded and looked at the person in charge of Zhijia: "Lao Lu, this is the last chance. I also want all the brothers to have a good future!"

Lu Yingxuan's mouth twitched: "..."

‘What’s a good way out? What good way out can there be by following Baidu?’

Why don't you understand what Li Yan means, that he wants to package and sell Baidu Smart Home to a goose factory?

But if this is the case, it is also a way out.

It is better to follow Goose Factory than to follow Baidu.

It is better to follow the goose factory than to be laid off and unemployed.

Lu Yingxuan took a deep breath: "Okay, Chairman, I understand, I will contact you."

"Well, I wish you good luck." Li Yan said with a smile, but he also understood that Goose Factory might not agree.

When Qu Xin looked at Lu Yingxuan's dejected look, he could not help but feel a bit like a rabbit dying and a fox grieving for its own kind.

The one who was laid off today was Baidu Zhijia's subsidiary. Will the next one be laid off be the project he is responsible for?

It was Lu Yingxuan who was kicked out today and forced to find a way out. Will it be Qu Xin who is kicked out and forced to find a way out next time?

This is entirely possible!

With Baidu's development model of rapid regression and rapid contraction, this is very possible.

Although BAT does everything, invests in everything, and launches dozens of projects a year, 95% of them fail in the end.

But Goose Factory and Alibaba always have a few successful companies, and their fundamentals are stable.

Although Goose Factory's social networking has been impacted by Changchao, QQ is still strong, and Tencent games are also scary.

Alibaba's e-commerce has also been affected, but Taobao is still number one, and Alipay has fallen to number two but is still outstanding.

But what about Baidu?

There are many investment projects, but almost none are successful.

Baidu Maps failed miserably, and Baidu Search was soon surpassed by Sogou Search.

Relying on the huge number of users of Xingyi Technology, Sogou search has risen rapidly and is changing with each passing day.

On the PC side, Baidu is still first and Sogou second.

But on the mobile side, Sogou has become the first, and Baidu has become the second.

There is no way, the shipment volume of Xingyi mobile phones, Wujie mobile phones, and Xingyi tablets is too large.

All have built-in Sogou search, which Baidu cannot do.

In addition, the Sogou input method is very easy to use, and you can start Sogou search directly from the input.

This is more convenient than Baidu in many scenarios.

Especially when writing something, you need to look up information when you reach a certain place.

To use Baidu, you have to close Word first, open the browser, open Baidu, enter keywords, and search.

With Sogou, you can directly click on the keyword in Word and instantly jump to Sogou search.

The Baidu browser next door hasn't opened yet, but Sogou has already published the results...

Coupled with the blessing of Xingyi Technology, Sogou's database and AI algorithm have advanced by leaps and bounds, and are only stronger than Baidu Search.

This caused Baidu’s basic market to be shaken!

"Maybe, I have to think about changing jobs. I don't know if Director Wang wants me..." Qu Xin sighed in his heart, it was hard not to have any ideas.

When the press conference was over, Wang Yi turned around and left. But halfway through, he turned back again:

"I just received a backstage notification. At this moment, our press conference has just ended. The online sales of xphone 3 have exceeded 1 million units. The online sales of xphone 3 plus have exceeded 2 million units!"

"As for offline sales, it's really impossible to estimate, but I think it should be very high. After all, the stores are selling very well."

As soon as he finished speaking, pictures appeared on the big screen at the back, which were live broadcasts from flagship stores and specialty stores across the country.

I saw long queues in all stores, many of them reaching the entrance of the Apple and Samsung flagship store next door.

This is true for the imperial capital, the magical capital, Guangshi, and Shenzhen.

The same is true for cities such as Jeju and Island City.

The picture keeps changing, and even the stores in the county have long queues.

Finally, the scene changed again. An Ele.me rider walked out of the store carrying backpacks and started delivering...

All are xphone 3 and xphone 3 plus!

Wang Yi smiled and said: "Thank you for your support. Although the stock this time is sufficient, with more than 10 million in stock, there is still some uncertainty due to the overly hot market."

"After all, as the most secure mobile phone in the world, with no backdoors and no fear of being monitored, there is still a possibility that tens of millions of dollars are not enough in stock."

"If you want to buy it, please hurry up. If you have any other needs or suggestions, you can also leave feedback on our Xingyi Forum. Our R&D personnel will check them one by one and try their best to solve them."

"For example, there was feedback from users before that Xingyi mobile phones have X ports and cannot be connected to computers to transfer data. Our Chat Business Department immediately launched the file transfer function.

It connects wirelessly with Bluetooth and transmits wirelessly. The hardware division also quickly launched an X port to USB port converter to easily connect to all computers."

"In addition, next year many computers will be upgraded to X ports with faster transmission."

“Thank you again for your support!”

Wang Yi left the stage and the press conference came to a successful conclusion.

The shock of everyone at the scene and netizens lasted for a long time:

"Holy crap, just after the press conference, 3 million units were sold? And it was just online?"

"Crazy, crazy, did all your money come from the strong wind?"

"Don't even buy it. Xphone 3 is poisonous. Let me buy one first for you to test the waters!"

"Upstairs, your abacus beads jumped on my face!"

“Who wouldn’t like a brand that is both obedient and strong?”

"Without the prism door, tens of millions of stocks would definitely be enough. With the prism door, even tens of millions of stocks would not be enough."

"Among other things, my cousin studying abroad queued up in the middle of the night to buy a few more and take them to school."

"We are close to the border, and there are many backpackers. They used to carry xphone 2pro, but now they carry xphone 3 and xphone 3 plus. They make money!"

"The crooked nuts are being snapped up like crazy, so we need to act quickly."

Especially the scenes of queuing up in various stores are so shocking!

In the past, many brands hired people to queue up every time they released a mobile phone.

It’s because this visual impact is so effective!

I saw a long queue of hundreds of people in front of the Xingyi flagship store, with no end in sight, and then I looked at the deserted Apple flagship store and Samsung flagship store next door...

Needless to say, everyone passing by knows that Xingyi mobile phones are good, but they all think that Apple and Samsung are no longer good!
