Chapter 129 Rice Promotion Plan
Chapter 129 Rice Promotion Plan
Shen Guohua's eyes lit up instantly, and he slapped the table, saying repeatedly, "Good, good, excellent! Taking this step will completely open up the path to advancement, and the future will be limitless."
Old Zhang, don't say Xiao Fei made you who you are. The higher you go, the safer Xiao Fei becomes.
Everyone raised their glasses again to celebrate Zhang Shiqing's victory...
…………
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the festive atmosphere had not yet dissipated. The streets were still filled with the sounds of people visiting relatives and exchanging New Year's greetings, as well as crowds gathered around mahjong tables, where one exciting battle after another was underway.
The rice company's premises are already bustling with activity.
Lei Jun hurriedly hung up the phone he had just received, not even bothering to smoke the cigarette between his fingers. His eyes were fixed on the promotional plan that had just been delivered.
This is the first public appearance of the Dami phone, so there can't be any problems.
He was very dissatisfied with this plan.
He didn't know what his subordinates were thinking; the most important MSM8255 chip was not emphasized in the design.
They certainly talked a lot about sentimentality, but since Mi Fans are all tech enthusiasts, they didn't even mention the flagship chip with the most powerful performance.
"Change it, this plan is unacceptable." Lei Jun stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray full of cigarette butts, his voice carrying a hint of ruthlessness. "The core issue is just one thing: promote our MSM8255 thoroughly."
A full-fledged 1.25GHz clock speed and a Qualcomm flagship chip – this is the key point.
The MSM8255 is designed to operate between 1.2 and 1.4 GHz and can be frequency-tuned.
After careful consideration, the Rice Ball team decided to go all out for being born for fever and slightly increase the frequency to avoid being crushed by Transsion's flagship phone.
After all, Qualcomm has stated that Transsion and Huawei are both testing this chip. Xiaomi's technology can't compare to Transsion's, so they can only slightly sacrifice power consumption for performance. Hopefully, the difference won't be too significant in the end.
One of the planning team members whispered a reminder: "Mr. Lei, should we mention the system, the screen, or something like that?"
Our configuration is much stronger than the Honor Play's, and their advertising is just spreading the word evenly...
"What a load of crap!" Lei Jun clapped his hands and slammed the parameter sheet in his hand onto the table. "This is our first round of advertising. We must make sure consumers remember the biggest selling point."
The MSM825 is the biggest selling point. What kind of stuff are all the domestic phones on the market now?
They all use MediaTek MTK6573 chips. Even with Transsion overclocking, the CPU only reaches around 800. Running a simple game like Fruit Ninja can be incredibly laggy, and finding your contacts takes forever.
By the time they open the webpage, our users have already finished reading the first Weibo post.
Our performance is more than double theirs; that's a classic case of overwhelming superiority.
Lei Jun got more and more excited as he talked, and then took the proposal and started modifying it himself.
"Write it like this! The first-generation flagship of the rice is equipped with the Qualcomm MSM 8255 flagship chip, with a full-blooded 1.25GHz main frequency, a true performance king, and the first to enter the 1G mark."
1.25GHz flagship, true performance, born for enthusiasts.
Sitting next to him, Lin Bin couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Old Lei, if we say this out loud, aren't we afraid users will actually say our phones overheat?"
"What's there to be afraid of?" Lei Jun said matter-of-factly. "If a flagship phone doesn't overheat, is it even a flagship phone? It's just a feature phone for the elderly."
Our phone doesn't get particularly hot, just a little warm, so users don't need to buy hand warmers.
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room perked up.
Everyone knows that Lei Jun went to Qualcomm's headquarters in the United States specifically for this chip, discussed it for two days, and finally secured the first launch rights in China.
They certainly couldn't let Lei's hard work go to waste.
As for heat, it will definitely get a little hot, but it will never be too hot to touch, so it is still usable.
After the discussion, Lei Jun once again used his connections, and the entire internet was filled with news about the first-generation Xiaomi phone.
First, the official Weibo account of Mi Fans released a formal reservation announcement: "The Mi Fan Annual Ceremony is officially open."

The first-generation Mi phone redefines cost-effectiveness, born for enthusiasts, and the new MIUI version is coming soon…
The accompanying image shows Qualcomm beating MediaTek, with the caption "Qualcomm surpasses MediaTek in decoding, performance, and power consumption."
In comparison, the MTK6573 is completely belittled...
In a short period of time, the official Weibo post about rice made it onto three different trending topics.
#Born for Fever#
#TechnologyEquality#
#Flagship phones at low prices are also available#
"The annual leave isn't over yet, and the rice is already being advertised?"
"It'll be here in a few days, but are Qualcomm chips really that powerful?"
"Qualcomm is the flagship, MediaTek is still too inferior."
"Think about MIUI, it's not that the chip performance is too strong, but that the optimization by Xiaomi is excellent."
"You're right, upstairs."
"I'm really looking forward to it! Will the price be even lower than the Honor Play?"
"It's unlikely. Xiaomi's supply chain integration capabilities are definitely not as good as Huawei's, but if they sell this configuration for 1999, it's still better than Honor."
The Honor phone is at best a mid-range phone; the user experience is decent, but the screen is ultimately too blurry.
"That's true..."
Online discussions about rice continue to increase, and many people are really looking forward to this new machine.
Even a novice unboxing couldn't escape the "it's actually pretty good" phenomenon.
As a professional, he didn't blindly follow the trend; instead, he did some research...
The information he found was that the MSM825 had only started tape-out and had not yet entered mass production; it would take at least three more months before it could be launched on the market.
That rice company is doing... a PowerPoint presentation.
In Guangzhou, Shen Fei also received a call from Yu Dazui.
"Mr. Shen, the rice business has started to move. Qualcomm's chips are indeed much stronger than the MediaTek chips we use. Should we buy a batch and do some minor processing? I feel that Lei Jun won't be so low-key at this press conference."
Yu Dazui has a clear understanding of the future plans for the company.
While the Mate S is ready, the Mate 2 series should also be on the agenda.
Most importantly, he is no match for Lei Jun in terms of publicity. Xiaomi only had a PPT presentation, without even a glimpse of the product, yet it still generated millions of pre-orders.
He's a worthy opponent!
But they were still too young, so Yu Dazui decided to let them experience the harshness of society as soon as possible.
"Mr. Yu, the Taishan 900 has also entered the final testing phase. The supply time for you should be similar to the price of the MSM8255."
We can wait until Taishan Chip goes public before negotiating, which will also put more pressure on us. After all, having our own technology is our greatest source of confidence.
Yu Dazui immediately laughed. It turned out that President Shen had already prepared for this. It seems he wasn't in a hurry at all...
"Mr. Shen, I understand. Then we'll begin preparations for the launch of the Mate S... I have great confidence that this revamped product will recreate the glory of the standard version."
"Um."
After saying that, Yu Dazui hung up the phone, saying that the listing work was nothing special.
The slightly updated Mate S will not have a launch event; it will be directly listed on the Huawei AppGallery, with a price difference compared to the Mate 1.
The most complicated promotional work involves negotiating new package deals and promotional strategies among the three suppliers.
