Reborn: Billionaire in College

After Chen Pingjiang stepped down, it was Lin Bin's turn to come on stage to introduce other new products.

But the audience was in chaos and no one was in the mood to listen.

This made Lin Bin feel helpless.

No experience anymore.

In the future, PADs and other devices should be introduced in front of mobile phones.

That evening, Chen Pingjiang and Scarlett had a cordial and in-depth exchange.

Facing this world-class billionaire, Scarlett cooperated well and posed as the Black Widow.

Chen Pingjiang was very satisfied.

Just when Chen Pingjiang was alive and well.

A new day has arrived in the country.

The hottest news today is naturally about the Orange S3 mobile phone launch conference, along with the Orange PAD S3 and wearable devices such as smart watches.

Major domestic news media have reported on this, and the comments on VOOC flash charging technology include:

At the same time, major media outlets have also praised Orange Technology's innovation.

——Orange Technology will eventually become the “Apple” of China.

——A detailed list of the eight high-tech features of Orange S3.

——Don’t just focus on Orange phones, smart watches and other wearable devices are also full of high-tech.

——Orange Technology launched sales in the first batch of 22 countries around the world, and as of now, a total of 12 million units have been sold in the past 287 hours, which is incredible.

——Cook said: Orange Technology is a very strong competitor.

It’s popular at home and even more popular abroad.

This is also the first domestically produced smartphone to create a stir around the world.

Many media outlets including Bloomberg, Spain's El Mundo, El Reason, and Britain's The Sun rushed to interview Chen Pingjiang.

The discussion volume of related topics on Twitter directly topped the list.

The last time was during the iPhone 4s launch event.

Made in China has shocked the world.

It became even more popular on YouTube, with comments of praise flooding in.

"From Bangladesh with love, China is the future!"

"Where can I buy such a good phone? I hope it can be imported into my country soon."

"Man, I bought a parallel import version of S2 last year, it's so good, I've become a loyal fan of Orange Technology."

"I can't believe this is made by a Chinese manufacturer. In my impression, aren't all Chinese products copied?"

"So... what they copied was Apple or Samsung's future technology?"

In addition to praise, there are also sarcastic comments.

Japanese netizen: "I am skeptical about the quality of Chinese products, but the iPhone does a good job in this regard."

Korean netizens: "Our Samsung from Smecta is the best!"

Indian netizens: "This is nothing to us, we have better phones in India."

Russian netizens: "The best thing about Samsung is the explosion. India doesn't have better mobile phones, but it has better lizards."

…………

Early the next morning.

Chen Pingjiang struggled to get out of bed. Today was a particularly busy day.

He didn't go anywhere for the whole day and just stayed in the hotel.

Meet with dealers from various countries and accept media interviews.

A message came at noon.

In today's smartphone selection, the Orange S2 actually beat the iPhone 4S and took second place.

As for the first place, it was taken by Samsung's S2.

Everyone knows the reason.

Fragile national pride needs various awards to maintain.

Not only did Chen Pingjiang not take it seriously, almost everyone who knew the business did not take it seriously.

In terms of single-machine sales, Orange S2 beats Samsung S2.

The sales volume speaks for itself.

2 month 29 day.

Chen Pingjiang appeared in Hungary to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the local Orange mobile phone super factory.

This is Orange Technology’s first overseas factory, which will supply all of Europe.

2 month 30 day.

Chen Pingjiang appeared in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the second overseas factory.

For a moment, the outside world was shocked.

Both factories started operation at the same time.

Domineering!

In the next few days, Chen Pingjiang started to fly frequently.

Attended the opening ceremony of the first Orange direct-operated store in Singapore.

Attended the opening ceremony of the first local Orange store in Moscow.

In Dubai, he had a cordial and friendly exchange with His Highness Prince Rashid of the United Arab Emirates.

"Chen, my friend, how about this hotel?" Rashid, with a piece of cloth on his head, stood by the window of the building with Chen Pingjiang.

At their feet is the world's tallest skyscraper - the Burj Khalifa.

"Very good, Your Highness."

"Haha, do you know where this room is? This is the room that Tom Cruise climbed the 4-meter-high glass wall of the Burj Khalifa in Mission Impossible 800 just to enter."

"That is the world's largest shopping and entertainment center, Dubai Mall. You can see the world's largest musical fountain, Dubai Fountain, right in front of you while lying in bed."

Rashid seemed a little proud when he introduced it.

"In the afternoon, I'll show you around my home and introduce you to some cute little creatures. There are lions and cheetahs."

"You are the technology talent I admire most. I am very happy that you can come to Dubai. I have prepared a grand private party for you in the evening."

Chen Pingjiang laughed and said, "I will definitely do that next time."

Are you kidding! The person across the street is Rashid, how dare you go to his party?

This guy died of a heart disease in 15, so it’s only been three and a half years.

Suspected to have died from excessive indulgence and drug abuse!
Only the rich and powerful can attend this guy's party, and it can be as messy as it can be. Among the women who attend are many well-known young models from around the world.

Just think about this kind of thing, your life is more important.

During this period, Chen Pingjiang's horizons broadened greatly.

I have met many politicians, business stars, and supermodels from various countries.

We had fun on the yacht and watched the show.

Basically, he is the focus wherever he goes.

There is only one purpose, which is to provide escort for Orange mobile phones to go overseas.

The few connections I have may be useful in China, but no one will pay attention to me abroad, so I need to establish new connections.

Didn’t the old horse run around like this in the first place?
Don't ask for special treatment, at least treat everyone equally.

It was not until March 3 that Chen Pingjiang returned to Dongjiang exhausted.

"Here, these two phones are for you two sisters. I'll find you when I'm free later."

Just before getting off the plane, Chen Pingjiang remembered the two Orange S3 Pro phones he brought with him.

Yin Hui took the phone with a blush on her face and nodded gently: "Thank you, Mr. Chen."

During this period, she and Yin Zhen accompanied Chen Pingjiang everywhere.

However, Chen Pingjiang never looked for them because he was too tired and had no energy.

…………

BJ.

Xiaomi headquarters.

Lei Jun, Hong Feng, Wang Chuan, Liu De, Li Wanqiang and Huang Jiangji, the co-founders of Xiaomi, are among them.

Lei Jun cleared his throat and said, "Today's meeting mainly discussed the future development direction and how Xiaomi should move forward. At present, Orange Technology is making great strides overseas, which makes me jealous. Sooner or later, we will also go overseas. And you have also seen the domestic mobile phone market. We are under great pressure from three huge mountains above our heads: Samsung, Apple, and Orange. We don't even have a chance to resist."

"We have done well. We have sold one million M1s so far, and our after-sales service is gradually improving. This achievement is the most powerful response to those who once doubted Xiaomi phones. Although we have experienced problems such as paint peeling, loose back covers, and light leakage, after half a year of accumulation, these problems have been basically improved."

"But it took us half a year to sell these one million mobile phones, while Orange sold them in just one hour. There is a lot of room for development in the overseas market."

"Right now, ZTE, Lenovo, Huawei, OPPO, and Vivo are all gearing up for the market. My personal opinion is that we should focus on the domestic market and also expand overseas."

Hong Feng smiled bitterly: "Mr. Lei is right, but we also need to strengthen research and development. The Orange S3 has too many selling points. I am tempted by those features and want to buy it, let alone consumers. Orange has reached the same level as Apple. We can't beat them, but Huawei can do it, right?"

Wang Chuan also said: "I am jealous. We work hard to make a low-end phone for 1-200 yuan. We dare not make more than that and we have to be very careful with the price. But they dare to sell it for more than yuan. This is the brand! Don't think it's too expensive, because you can't get it at all!"

Lei Jun smiled and waved his hands: "Lao Wang, we all know what you are talking about. There is no need to compare with Chen Pingjiang. Let's do our own work well, start with the low-end and seize the market. This time, Orange has also let our domestic low-end mobile phone manufacturers go, otherwise we would really be eaten up."

Li Wanqiang smiled and said, "Is it still the India we discussed last time? Nothing has changed?"

Lei Jun nodded solemnly: "No change, let's go to India. I know that although India's economy is not good now and the per capita income is lower, it has great potential. If it can become the second China, it will be amazing. We will plan ahead, and we will be No. 1 in ten years. More importantly, our cost-effective mobile phones are undoubtedly the king there. Oranges and apples are too expensive, and Indian people will not pay for them. Lao Li, can you introduce the situation in India to everyone?"

"Okay!" Li Wanqiang looked around and introduced: "India's powerful local brands include Micromax/Intex and Lava. These brands are actually not to be feared. The main pressure is still Lenovo, Gionee, ZTE and other domestic brand pioneers. It is recommended to copy the domestic online shopping model."

Huang Jiangji held out his hand: "Excuse me, don't people in India prefer to use cash? Is online shopping reliable?"

Li Wanqiang: "We have to try and make progress together. Mr. Lei is in charge of marketing, but that is secondary. The key lies in the policy. The other party requires us to build a factory in the local area."

Lei Jun: "Technology for market?"

“Well, if you want to grow bigger, you have to build a factory.”

Lei Jun made the final decision without hesitation: "Let's build it! If we make money, that's a good thing. If we don't make money, but we occupy the Indian market, it means we will block other manufacturers from the Indian market."

"Only with a larger scale can we spread the overall cost. As the size of the Indian market increases, our global costs can be spread, and the global costs of our parts suppliers can also be spread. We can iterate and evolve through fierce competition in the Chinese market, and at the same time we can recover the R&D costs of the previous generation in the Indian market. Every additional car produced is a profit, just like Japanese cars did in China before."

"Whoever occupies this market will spread the global costs. We must seize the opportunity and not hesitate."

Some people wonder: "There is a lot of uncertainty in India's policies, and the government has a bad reputation. What if they take our technology, build their own local brands, and then turn against us?"

Lei Jun laughed: "It's not that I look down on Indian manufacturing, they are still a little immature, at least ten years later, and that's if everything goes well. They are not our country. Don't worry, just take care of the policy issues."

"Well, instead of staying in the country and getting into trouble, why not go out to sea and try your luck? Maybe there will be a new world out there."

After the meeting.

Lei Jun was cautious and took the initiative to call Chen Pingjiang.

"Mr. Chen, are you planning to enter India?"

Chen Pingjiang said, "If there are dealers, come in! What? You want to go over there?"

"Yes, we plan to focus on the Indian market, so we wanted to let you know in advance. If you want to go, we can change the location."

Chen Pingjiang on the other end of the phone chuckled and thought to himself, I don't believe you.

"The Indian market is good, and Mr. Lei has a good vision. It's a blank sheet of paper, and you can paint whatever you want on it. There is huge potential for development. I think it's okay. Don't worry, Mr. Lei, you two won't be delayed."

"Thank you very much!"

After hanging up the phone, Lei Jun felt relieved and felt more and more that his move was a wise one.

Chen Pingjiang also laughed, and history returned to its rightful place.

Xiaomi still went to India.

Is the Indian market good?
Of course, even Chen Pingjiang is tempted.

With a population of over one billion, it is simply an undeveloped CHU land.

In fact, Xiaomi has indeed achieved success in the Indian market. In just three years, it has ranked first in terms of shipments, accounting for 31%.

It has also greatly boosted the development of Xiaomi in China and diluted costs.

But this weird country and its weird policies soon revealed their true colors.

First they trick you into building a factory, and then it’s okay if you fail to make it work.

But if you succeed, you will make money.

Sorry about that.

Earn money in India and spend it in India, and take some home.

After fattening them up, they will be executed on the spot.

Rectification is not enough. Wait until you bring the supply chain here and then kick you out.

That's cruel!

The foreign capital graveyard is well-deserved of its reputation.

However, there is one good thing about the third brother: he always treats everyone equally.

No matter which country your company is from, once you come in, you will be slaughtered.

Chinese companies have indeed suffered a lot, and foreign companies are not much better off.

Chen Pingjiang plans to ask Lei Jun in a few years: "Are you OK?" (End of this chapter)
