Chapter 74: Abandoning the International Market

Columbia, USA.

"Customs restrict the import of ''S-1'? Because of a monopoly case? What? My shipment was sent back? FedEx canceled the logistics of 'S-1'? Shit FedEx!! I curse him to go out and step on bananas Pi fell off his nose and ate a stinky shit from a stray dog ​​three days ago!! F***!!"

"Hovis, what about consumer enthusiasm for the 'S-1'?"

"Boss! It's eight o'clock, and our store will open on time at nine o'clock. The enthusiasm of consumers for 'S-1' is too high. Dozens of people outside are waiting outside the gate. It should be broken by the time it opens. One hundred people, I even think we can raise the price a little higher!"

"Hehe~ I think so too!"

"Uh~ what do you mean, boss, I don't understand!"

"Listen, Hovis, the price of the first fifty 'S-1' units remains the same at the previously announced $1,499, but only fifty units are on sale today, and the next day when they open, the price is raised to $1,499. $2499."

"A full $1,000 increase? Are you sure? Will it be too expensive? Will consumers accept it?"

"Hum hum ~~ I even think it's too low for Hovis, maybe the price will be raised later!"

"what?"

"Damn it! XlouS has completely withdrawn from the international market, Hovis, do you know what that means? It means that for every additional S-1 we sell, there will be one less S-1, and it will only get more expensive in the future. , when will XlouS's monopoly lawsuit be settled and when will the price come down!"

"Okay! Boss, I understand!"

I was on a commercial pedestrian street in this big state, and it was around 8:30 local time. However, in such an early time, there were more than 70 people lining up on this pedestrian street. Without exception, these people in line are coming to buy the hottest electronic product of the moment, namely, the wearable smartphone device - "S-1".

This offline store is the only unofficial direct-operated "S-1" sales point in the entire Columbia state, because there is no official direct-operated regional flagship store. It's finally opening.

Although people can place orders on the XlouS official website, some people are still more willing to buy offline. However, some people in the queue here were originally consumers who placed orders on the XlouS official website, but after receiving the information of a full refund, But they are not happy. These consumers have long been impatient to get an "S-1" device. When they receive a refund, they will undoubtedly collapse. They have no choice but to go to offline agent sales points to buy , when they saw the price of $1499, they just wanted to yell, which was $300 higher than the official website price, but they still chose to line up to buy it.

Since seeing the "S-1", some consumers have no love for the iPhone anymore, and the extra $300 is not unacceptable!

"What? Only 50? Are you kidding me? There are more than 100 people in line here!"

Consumers in line learned that the store was out of stock in less than half an hour after opening, and all kinds of dissatisfied voices were heard in an instant.

"I'm really sorry, I'm very sorry, we didn't know it would sell so quickly." Hovis, who was in charge of the sales point, explained with a blushing 'sincere', "Since XlouS is facing a monopoly case," Therefore, S-1' was restricted by customs, and there is only one less one sold. Let's check the latest announcement of XlouS. This damn Chinese company has withdrawn from the international market, but we have already mobilized from the Manhattan head office. A batch of goods has been shipped, and it will be sold on time tomorrow, but the price may change, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, everyone will come back tomorrow..."

Under Hoves's "sincere" apology like nodding and bowing,

Consumers sighed for a while, but they dissipated helplessly, and the first 50 consumers who bought the equipment naturally left with a smile.

What they didn't know was that there were still 300 S-1s in the warehouse at the point of sale at the moment.

It can be said that in the past month, in terms of the whole world, Matrix Technology XlouS, a high-tech company from China, has basically not left the public's field of vision. If there is a big trend this month, then XlouS Undoubtedly, it is a veritable "trend-goer" during this period.

Matrix Technology has successfully made big news around the world again and again, and attracted global attention, and the movement is not ordinary. Not long ago, Matrix Technology announced its withdrawal from the international market, and all offices in major regions in the international market were recalled. XlouS quietly released this news on its official website, but it made media and technology all over the world. Insiders and Wall Street stunned.

The outside world is completely incomprehensible to XlouS's move. The Wall Street Journal pointed out that the decision of Matrix Technology will directly or indirectly cause the company's annual net profit to lose 23.5 billion US dollars, which is undoubtedly an astronomical figure, but Wall Street still emphasizes The point is, even so, XlouS's annual profits are still eye-watering.

The outside world is puzzled by Ren Hong's decision-making. The company's members from top to bottom are almost all young people. This kind of move seems to have the impulse unique to young people. "The decision seems to follow.

Hainan, Matrix Technology Headquarters, senior conference room.

"Companies in the international market will definitely not give up. Today's giving up is a strategic adjustment." Ren Hong looked at the company executives sitting in the conference room, and he smiled: "XlouS lacks everything, just not lacks anything. money."

Everyone laughed instantly, that's true, other companies are thinking about how to increase revenue every day, how to make a profit, but not in XlouS, Matrix Technology has too many profit points, just instant online Inter-translation allows companies to live more comfortably than most so-called giants in the world. Money is readily available for this company, but this company has not been established with the primary purpose of making money. The gene that Ren Hong gave to XlouS is to change the world, not a tool to make money, otherwise why not go public and make money!

"I will not participate in the specific details of the company's operations. It is enough that the CEO leads the company's operations." Ren Hong said, he glanced at Gao Yue, who was sitting in the front row, and then looked at the executives of various departments. He continued: "Here, I mainly talk about the company's general direction and strategic adjustment. Next, the company's main general direction and goal is to deeply explore the domestic market and establish our own channels and marketing network, which may be difficult. , there will be a lot of resistance, but we have money to invest, and there are two cash cows, instant online translation and Xiaoyou Assistant, even if other departments don’t make a penny, we can burn enough. Any competitor, who dares to obstruct us, then use real gold and silver to burn it, and see who burns fiercely and who can't stand it first!"

"In addition, take back a certain sentence I said on the day of the press conference. Immediately, the company will establish 'S-1' offline marketing channels, direct sales stores, and regional flagship stores in China." Ren Hong's face is not red. Jumping said, at the press conference, he swore to face the world and threatened that there was only one "S-1" direct-sale store in the world, that is, the official flagship store in the company's headquarters.

The executives present were stunned by Ren Hong's remarks. The chairman really doesn't take money as money. However, none of the people present objected or had the ability to object. Although Ren Hong basically did not care about the daily operations of the company, everyone present knew very well who was the true head of this technology company.
