Chapter 351 Chapter 341: Three companies cut prices together

DeepBlue only costs RMB 500 to produce a 140GB solid-state drive. It would be extremely benevolent to give the other party RMB 800 less. It is impossible for Lu Cailian to pay the other party according to the market price, not to mention that DeepBlue all-in-one machines are in a situation where demand exceeds supply. state.

"Mr. Lu, is it really necessary?" Shao Shenghao asked.

"Mr. Shao, I believe you are familiar with our products. Our all-in-one machine is the most cost-effective. If your customer can't accept it, then let him DIY it by himself. I still have a lot of things waiting for me. I'll take care of it, so I won't chat with you any more. Just place your order with our business," Lu Cailian said.

Lu Cailian was too lazy to keep fighting with the other party. The Deep Blue All-in-one machine was not asking people to buy it. They didn't want to buy a lot of users who wanted to buy it.

"Mr. Lu, wait a minute, the customer asked if the low-end version of the all-in-one machine can be made into a 27-inch machine?" Shao Shenghao said.

"The low-end version is made into a 27-inch version without a hard drive, right?" Lu Cailian asked.

"Yes." Shao Shenghao replied.

"No bargaining for 4600 yuan per unit," Lu Cailian said.

"Mr. Lu, the customer wants to order 1000 units first. Do you think that's okay?" Shao Shenghao said.

"Mr. Shao, the minimum order for special customization is 5000 units. It is difficult for the factory to arrange 1000 units. Didn't I tell you just now that our order has exceeded 100 million. The quantity is too small and it is difficult for the factory to arrange it. Lu Cailian said.

"Then I will communicate with the customer first and then contact you." Shao Shenghao said.

"Okay." Lu Cailian said and hung up the phone.

After Lu Cailian hung up the phone with Shao Shenghao, another dealer called and asked if there was a discount for large-volume orders.

The price-performance ratio of Deep Blue all-in-one computers is really too high. Not to mention the incomparable product performance, Deep Blue is even better in terms of price, not to mention that Deep Blue all-in-one computers are more beautiful than DIY computers.

If we look at it in a more detailed direction, the power consumption of the Deep Blue all-in-one machine is much lower than that of DIY. The electricity bill saved is a very considerable amount of money for the Internet cafe owner.

Deep Blue Group.

After Han Chen arrived at the company, he immediately called Ma Changan and Yang Yicheng to his office.

"I have a short-wave broadcasting technology in hand. I need you to make it quickly and conduct experiments on this technology." Han Chen handed the document to the two of them and said.

The two of them also looked at Han Chen's documents carefully after taking them. They both showed surprised expressions after reading the documents in their hands.

"Mr. Han, this technology is really powerful. If all cars use this technology, the probability of car accidents can be reduced by at least 50%." Yang Yicheng said in surprise.

"If all cars use this technology, I bet the probability of car accidents can be reduced by at least 80%." Ma Changan praised.

"Okay, don't brag here. After you get it out, do the experiment and you will know how it goes. You can go back and do your work." Han Chen said with a smile.

"Okay, boss." Ma Changan replied.

April 2013, 11, US time.

Intel Headquarters, Santa Clara, California.

He couldn't help but frown at the report sent by the Paul Otellini think tank, because the customized price from the think tank was too low.

为了能够在华夏市场生存下去,智库对产品线价格进行调整,他们将赛扬系列下调到150左右,酷睿的I3的价格直接下调到300-400块,酷睿I5的价格下调到500-700,酷睿的I7价格更是下调到800-1000。

The motherboards matching these CPUs have also been significantly reduced. After some reductions, the cheapest motherboard has been reduced to 200 yuan, and the price of the most expensive motherboard has not exceeded 600 RMB.

Without adjustments, there is no way their products can compete with Deep Blue's products. Without adjustments, installing a computer of the same level requires 5000 soft sister coins.

If they don't lower the price and adjust the price of the entire platform by 3500 yuan, then basically the products above this price will not be sold.

Deep Blue's lowest-end all-in-one machine is priced at only 3999 yuan. There is a 5000 yuan difference between 3999 and 1001 yuan. As long as consumers are not stupid, they will know which one to choose.

Intel's stock price also fell by nearly 35 percentage points due to the emergence of Deep Blue Computer.

If they do not make corresponding response strategies, Intel's stock price will not be able to stop falling. Paul Otellini's first job is to protect the stock price first, and price adjustment is the only way they can preserve the stock price.

Now in this situation, they can only use this method.

Paul Otellini closed the document and sent the report from the think tank to the board of directors.

It's two o'clock in the afternoon.

Members of the board of directors also responded one after another after seeing Paul Otellini's email.

Members of the board of directors all agree with Intel adjusting the selling price in China. Although lowering the price will make them make a lot less money, they have been forced to go to the end. If the price is not adjusted at this time, Intel will lose money in a short time. Chinese market.

You must know that their enemies are not only the Deep Blue family, but also AMD who is eyeing them.

AMD's product prices are inherently lower than Intel's. If they don't lower prices, AMD will definitely lower prices. The only way is to adjust CPU prices so that Intel's product line can survive in the low-end market.

If they don't lower prices, they can only watch AMD and Deep Blue Group divide their market share from the wall.

However, this time the adjustment is only in China. In areas where there is no deep blue, they still sell the original price. If the adjustment is made globally, then they will suffer a big loss.

at the same time.

AMD is also adjusting the price of products in China like them. In addition, Su Ma has also reduced AMD's product line. After the price reduction, there is less room for maneuver.

In order to make AMD more competitive, Su Ma had to propose downgrading and cutting off part of the product line.

Of course, the adjustment mentioned here is only an adjustment in China. Other countries are still selling the product at the original price. The reason for this is because the all-in-one machine has not yet gone overseas. Once it goes overseas, they can only adjust the price in other regions.

"Han, is this price too low?" CEO Hector Ruizhi asked with a frown.

"Boss, if nothing else happens, Intel will definitely adjust the prices. If we don't adjust the prices of our product lines, and if I wait until Intel adjusts them, then we won't have to sell our chips anymore," Su Ma said.

"But this price is too low." Hector Luizhi frowned. AMD's lowest product price has been reduced to 100-200 yuan, and the price of mid-to-high-end products has been set at 300-500 yuan. The price of the motherboard adapted to it has also been reduced. According to the new price, a computer only costs a thousand yuan.

"Boss, if the price is high, do you think they will still buy our products? Why don't they buy Intel products?" Su's mother asked.

When Su's mother asked Hector Ruizhi this question, he didn't know how to answer the other party's question for a while.

Not to mention that the performance of their products is not as good as Intel's. If their products are more expensive than Intel's, consumers will not be able to buy their products. After all, their products are not luxury goods, and the customers who buy computers are not Fool.

Regardless of whether they lower the price or not, Intel will definitely lower the price. If Intel doesn't lower the price, it won't have to sell high-end chips. There's no way anyone can make the Deep Blue all-in-one machine perform so powerfully.

"Then just do what you want." Hector Luizhi sighed.

"Boss, I have one more thing to tell you. This is my resignation letter." Su's mother put an envelope on the table and said.

After two days of thinking, Su’s mother decided to switch to Deep Blue. The space that AMD could give her was really small. For her, Deep Blue’s stage was bigger, and Deep Blue’s technology was more advanced than the AI ​​companies.

"Su, why do you want to resign after you have done a good job?" Hector Ruiz asked curiously.

"Boss, Intel sent someone over to invite me two days ago. After some thought, I decided to work for Deep Blue Group. Deep Blue Group can give me a better and bigger stage." Su's mother said bluntly.

"Su, are you dissatisfied with the company's system? If you have any dissatisfaction, you can raise it. I can help you report it to the board of directors. AMD needs you very much." Hector Ruizhi said.

"Boss, AMD's stage is really too small." Su's mother said.

"Well, since you insist on leaving, I won't keep you. All I can do is wish you smooth sailing." Hector Ruizhi smiled.

"Thank you, boss." Su Ma replied with a smile.

September 2013, 11, China time.

In the past week, all computer companies in China have complained.

This period of time is like a year for them. The new products of the Deep Blue Group have taken away most of their customers. If this situation continues, they will go bankrupt soon.

However, at this time, a piece of news came out that made the bosses of these computer companies heave a sigh of relief.

This news also aroused heated discussion among netizens, and it suddenly became the number one hot topic on Weibo. Netizens were also shocked when they saw this news.

"Are Intel and AMD crazy? The prices have dropped so much all of a sudden."

"The big brother upstairs must have just come out of the village. You can find out the parameters of the Deep Blue all-in-one computer. It is impossible for a computer assembled by DIY to be faster than the Deep Blue all-in-one computer."

"I used to think DIY computers were cool, but now I think DIY computers are stupid. Isn't the all-in-one computer priced at 3999 nice?"

"It costs at least 3999 to yuan to DIY a computer with the same performance, but the Deep Blue all-in-one computer only costs . Compared to this, DIY computers are stinky."

"If Intel and AMD don't lower their prices, they don't need to sell their products. An I7 3770K costs more than 2200 yuan. If you add a high-end motherboard, the two items add up to 3000 yuan. One set is at least It also costs to soft girl coins. If it were you, would you still buy a computer from Tiaobenji?
Intel and AMD have no choice but to adjust CPU prices if they want to survive. If they don't adjust the chips in their warehouses, they will just sit there and eat dust. "

"I agree with what you said above. How can they sell it if they don't adjust it?"

"It's crazy. The Core I7 3770K has been directly reduced to 959 yuan. This price is cut in half and requires a 77% discount. The motherboard and Z1600 package only costs yuan."

"AMD's chips are even crazier. Barton's 2600+ is directly priced at 99 yuan. With the motherboard, it only costs 369 yuan. You can assemble a new computer for 900 yuan."

Just when netizens were still talking about Intel and AMD, Nvidia also announced a major price cut for its entire line of graphics cards.

With the addition of NVIDIA, netizens started talking again.

"Deep Blue Group is really awesome, forcing major hardware manufacturers to cut prices, even Nvidia has cut prices."

"Zinima refunds the money, Lao Huang, are you worthy of your fans? I just bought the GTX680 last month, and I spent more than 3000 yuan to buy it, and now you have actually reduced it to 699 yuan."

"It's so funny. The GTX3999 that was selling for 680 RMB yesterday has dropped to 699 RMB today."

“A flagship graphics card cannot outperform Deep Blue’s integrated graphics card. How can Nvidia have the nerve to sell it for 3999 yuan?”

"I assembled the computer two days before Deep Blue released its new product. It cost almost 1 yuan to assemble this computer. Deep Blue has tricked people by not giving advance notice this time. If Deep Blue releases new product advance notice, I will How could it be possible to spend 1 yuan to install such a computer.

It’s really laughable that a computer priced at RMB 3999 can’t outperform DeepBlue’s all-in-one computer priced at RMB . "

"Deep Blue Group really made a splash this time without making a fuss. It directly defeated the three major semiconductor manufacturers in the United States."

"I wonder how big the psychological shadow is on those who assemble high-end computers before Double Eleven."

"Deep Blue Group released smartphones, which directly drove down the price of smartphones. Now Deep Blue Group releases new computers, and the price of computers has once again been beaten down by Deep Blue. I have never seen such an awesome product in my long life."

“Deep Blue Group is really a heifer traveling around the world—it’s awesome wherever it goes.”

"Well, it seems that the Deep Blue Group hasn't lowered the price of its cars, right?"

"Brother upstairs, how long have you not been online? BBA immediately slashed prices after the appearance of Deep Blue Cars, and the BMW X5 was cut in half."

"Do you still remember the last time Deep Blue Group issued a recruitment announcement? Deep Blue Group is recruiting people who will work on Rockets? Do you think the price of Rockets will be lowered?"

"The brother upstairs is more confident that as long as Deep Blue really makes rockets, Deep Blue will definitely be able to bring down the price of rockets."

Just when netizens are talking about price cuts.

Han Chen was preparing to hold a meeting with the rocket engineers recruited directly by Deep Blue.

Deep Blue Direct Recruitment recruited a total of 243 engineers for Han Chen. At this moment, 243 engineers were already waiting in the conference room. Han Chen also walked into the conference room at this time.

"I am very happy that everyone can join Deep Blue Space Technology Co., Ltd. I am Han Chen, the chairman of Deep Blue Group. You can call me Mr. Han. As you can imagine, Deep Blue Group wants to develop rockets, but the rockets we want to develop are somewhat different. The rocket we are studying is a rocket that can be used repeatedly," Han Chen said. (End of chapter)
