   Chapter 703 Dimension Reduction Strike

  P2 will be a hot seller. In fact, it is not beyond the expectations of Wall Street analysts. The pre-sale of 350,000 units of P2 is enough to shock all four.

   On the first day of its launch, 720,000 units were sold, more than double the pre-sale.

What is the use of    analysis, the technical level of P2, those mobile phone manufacturers, analysis and analysis, electronic enthusiasts from all walks of life are also arguing, but in the end, P2 responded to everything with sales!

  Whether it is the best or not, users like this one anyway, and make decisions with their toes, not the data of those analysts or the guidance of electronic giants.

   "Alcatel mobile phones are leading the trend of mobile phones. P2 mobile phones are phenomenal products!"

   The Wall Street Journal directly said that Alcatel mobile phone is the first brother in the mobile phone industry.

"The sales of P1 mobile phones may set a new mobile phone sales record. On the first day of P2's release today, P1 officially began to cut prices, and in Latin America, Eastern Europe, South Asia and other places, P1 mobile phones today set another 500,000 units per day. Sales, P1 global sales exceeded 35 million units!"

The New York Times reported a news outside the mainstream media. The price of the P1 was reduced to $299 apiece. Today, it was completely sold out. A mobile phone with a monthly income of $499 was less than a few hundred dollars per month. The place may feel a little expensive, what about 299 US dollars?

The release of   P2 not only did not affect the P1, but instead made the sales of P1 mobile phones recover and exploded completely. The cumulative global sales exceeded 35 million, making it one of the first generation of magic phones!

   35 million has been sold, is 50 million still far behind?

After the price reduction, the P1 mobile phone just cooperated with the P2 mobile phone, allowing Alcatel to enter the ordinary mobile phone market. Dimensionality reduction hit.

  Sales are king, even if it is a bunch of things, as long as it sells a lot, it will be touted by people, and then the media will find out the advantages of P2 mobile phones from various angles.

  This world is written by the victors, and only the victors will be recorded. The sales of Alcatel mobile phones of one million units on the first day made all kinds of media start to frantically tout the Alcatel mobile phones.

   "Although it has only been released for two generations, it definitely has a place in the most classic series of mobile phones in the world in the future!

Every generation has something amazing and memorable, and it also leads the trend of the mobile phone era. Just like the founder Bruno Song who reinvented it, he has done everything in the Internet era. Alcatel is also leading the mobile phone industry. Be trendy! "

  America Computer News directly defined the Alcatel P series mobile phone as a series of classic electronic products, and directly established the status of Alcatel mobile phones.

  The major financial and technological media are all touting Alcatel mobile phones, but it is not without depreciation.

   Our colleagues are enemies, and the news media of Japan Benzene declared that "Alcatel P2 mobile phones are just a pile of electronic waste!"

   The sound quality of the Alcatel P2 is just a pile of electronic waste compared to the audio system, CD player, and Sony Walkman! "

   This Japanese benzene media, with fierce reports, commented on several crimes of the Alcatel P2 mobile phone, thinking that the appearance of this mobile phone is a nightmare for the music industry.

The Japanese media reported that the Alcatel P1 mobile phone sold more than 60,000 units in Japan that day, becoming the most popular mobile phone and music player for a new generation of Japanese young people. Ao's Walkman, the sales of benzene in Japan on that day fell by at least 15% compared to usual, and the same is true for benzene in Japan, as can be imagined in other regions.

The music and recording industries are also somewhat dissatisfied with the music phones produced by Alcatel P2 phones. Although they are not directly reported by top music magazines such as "Rolling Stone", there are still many Los Angeles tabloids and magazines who stand up and say that Alcatel P2 The emergence of mobile phones may not be a good thing for the record industry.

Behind these tabloids, it is basically the record companies and those singers who are worried that the emergence of digital music will affect their income. Even if the Alcatel mobile phone is under the banner of promoting genuine digital music, who can guarantee that users must Download genuine music.

   But whether it is e-waste or not, the hot sale of P2 cannot be stopped. Young people all over the world are proud of owning a P2 mobile phone!

   And the industry related to Alcatel P2 mobile phone, when the market opened the next day, all rose sharply across the board.

   First of all, those parts suppliers of Alcatel mobile phone concept stocks, including 3M, have their share prices up by more than 20%.

   The Houston Decole Chemical Plant, which provides lithium batteries for Alcatel mobile phones, saw its stock price drop by 50% in two days, and its market value officially exceeded 10 billion dollars!

   This is the first company to break through the market value of tens of billions of dollars among the new manufacturers in the supply chain developed by Alcatel mobile phones. It is not an established company such as 3M and Knowles. It also marks that the concept stock of Alcatel mobile phone has officially formed.

The reason for such a big rise is inseparable from the praise of Wall Street analysts. Wall Street analysts from major institutions have given sales forecasts for Alcatel P2 mobile phones. Among them, analysts from Deutsche Bank Investment Bank directly gave amazing results. With an annual shipment of 40 million units, it surpassed Motorola and became the second largest mobile phone brand in the world after Nokia!

   Various analysts predict that the global sales volume will continue to soar this year, and the global shipment will reach about 200 million units, while the sales volume for Nokia is estimated to be about 50 million units.

  Nokia's sales volume of 50 million, plus Alcatel's 40 million mobile phones, together, they account for almost half of the global mobile phone industry!

This can answer that sentence. Alcatel calls all mobile phone brands together for dinner, and then asks Nokia to stand up, add a Motorola at most, and then face Ericsson, Sony, Samsung, Siemens, and Panasonic who are sitting again. Waiting for a group of mobile phone manufacturers to say, "Everyone sitting here is..."

  It is hard to say whether the estimated sales volume is accurate or not, but this prediction directly detonated the concept stocks of Alcatel mobile phones. As long as the stocks related to Alcatel mobile phones, they all went crazy.

Think about it, with the shipment of 40 million units, the annual revenue of Alcatel mobile phones exploded directly. The profit of a single unit of Alcatel mobile phones is much higher, but Nokia is much higher. Backed by Alcatel mobile phones, almost all supply chains Manufacturers are going to make crazy money.

   Not only an Alcatel mobile phone supply chain manufacturer that announced the adjustment of production capacity, many manufacturers have announced the construction of new production lines, because there are too many orders for Alcatel mobile phones.

   Seeing all the money in hand, but not being able to eat it, what does it feel like? Now the supply chain manufacturers of Alcatel mobile phones have experienced it.

Previously, the Alcatel mobile phone had a planned monthly production capacity of 2 million P2 units, but at noon the next day, it was announced that it was out of stock in America, followed by the first batch of 2 million units put into the market across Europe. I couldn't resist it for two days, so I sold it short!

  In the Alcatel Mobile Phone Industrial Park in Yanjing, before the second phase of the project was completed, the third and fourth phases of the project were announced again. In the future, the entire industrial park will be able to accommodate more than 250,000 people.

   In addition to the continuous relocation of other supporting manufacturers, the personnel that the entire industrial park can accommodate is almost no different from a small town.

Coupled with the high salaries offered by Alcatel Mobile to R&D personnel and engineers, ordinary employees are also a lot higher than other companies. Around the industrial park, a huge consumer market has been formed, allowing several employees around the Yanjing Alcatel mobile phone park. The housing price of a community broke through the 5,000 mark abruptly.

You must know that the average house price in Yanjing at this time was only more than 2,000, and the refined decoration did not exceed 4,000. Of course, those places in the Yanjing villa area cannot be compared. Villas have been scarce since ancient times, and it is impossible to compare with ordinary land prices, but Alcatel The housing prices around the mobile phone industrial park are quite high in Yanjing.

Along with Alcatel mobile phone concept stocks soaring, there are also telecom concept stocks. Two days after the release of Alcatel P2, America Telecom announced that more than 510,000 users had opened CRBT, which is the proportion of users who purchased Alcatel P2 mobile phones. , In about 25%, one out of four people has opened the CRBT business and ordered CRBT, especially among young users.

This news has caused the entire America telecom stock to fall into a carnival. Think about how many mobile phone users there are in America. Now other telecom operators do not provide CRBT service, which does not mean that they will not provide it in the future. According to this ratio, in the future , there are at least millions of CRBT users, and the revenue of CRBT in America is around tens or even tens of billions of dollars. This is a lot of fat. Which telecom operator is not envious!

   Not to mention, P2 mobile phone users not only use color ringtones, but also use MMS, mobile greeting cards, etc. The more powerful the P2 mobile phone, the more aggressive the user traffic will be.

  The benefits brought by the mobile Internet such as traffic, color ringtones, and multimedia messages are almost like a gold mine, displayed in the eyes of major telecom giants in America.

   "The era of mobile Internet is coming!"

   It was ICQ and America Telecom who first proposed the concept of mobile Internet, but it was the major telecom operators who first shouted out the slogan.

   A number of telecom giants, including WorldCom, Verizon, SBC, Charter Communications, and Princeton, have announced that they will join the ranks of the mobile Internet.

As the first American Telecom to eat crabs, not to mention, as the major shareholder and second shareholder of American Telecom, the stock prices of ICQ and Telephone and Telegraph Group directly started the rocket mode. The board of directors of the two companies that rose that day, both Some were terrified...
