Chapter 562 Sales exceeded one million in four days
In the afternoon, Zhou Jing went to the city to discuss a project. After that, he stayed with Yang Wenwen for one night. The next day, September 3, he returned to Qing County. After staying in Qing County for one night, he went back to his hometown to bring some things. It was already the evening of September 4 when he returned to BJ.

"You brought so many things, are you going to take them home all at once?"

Gu Jia went downstairs to help get things and said as she looked at the trunk of the car which was almost full.

There are vegetables, fruits, eggs, sweet potatoes and potatoes with soil on them, etc. in the trunk. The vegetables include eggplant, peppers, tomatoes, leeks, pumpkins, and the fruits include grapes, apples, dates and pears, full of the flavor of local specialties.

"Go to the elevator and open the door."

Zhou Jing took out all the things and put them on the ground.

The trunk of the Maybach S680 may not seem large, but there are quite a few things in it, including two beer boxes and vegetables, an apple box and fruits, a box of sweet potatoes and potatoes, two cartons of eggs, and other miscellaneous items.

“So fresh.”

Gu Jia picked up the box of vegetables and could smell the scent of tomatoes through the box.

"You wait inside."

Zhou Jing put the things outside the elevator and went outside to get them.

"No need to watch."

Gu Jia helped to move it.

Take the items separately to outside the elevator in the building, then move them inside and into the elevator.

"Zhou Zhou, look who's back."

Wu Suqin was standing outside the elevator holding her child and spoke after the elevator door opened.

"baba~"

Seeing Zhou Jing, whom she had not seen for four days, the child in Wu Suqin's arms immediately became restless, humming and thinking about Zhou Jing.

"Daddy will bring the things home and then hug you, okay?"

Zhou Jing kissed the child on the cheek, ignored the child for the moment, and quickly moved the things out of the elevator.

"Uh, baba, bo~"

The little girl seemed unable to wait even a minute. She waved her little hands and legs towards Zhou Jing. When she didn't get a response from Zhou Jing, she was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"You've only not seen dad for three or four days and you're thinking this way?"

Zhou Jing pinched the child's moving feet and said.

"Hold Zhou Zhou while I move the things."

Wu Suqin untied the baby's sling and handed the child to her son.

"Come and give dad a hug. Do you miss dad?"

Zhou Jing hugged the child and kissed him.

"Uh~"

The little girl clung to Zhou Jing.

"You are really daddy's little cotton-padded jacket." Zhou Jing carried the child back to the house first, "Did you eat well when daddy was away?"

"Forehead!"

"Did your mother scold you?"

Zhou Jing continued.

"If you dare to tell on me, I will be rude to you and your father too."

Gu Jia sent a box to the kitchen, came out and patted the child gently on the butt.

"Ha~"

The little girl waved her hand and put her face against Zhou Jing's neck.

"Don't be afraid, Dad will protect you."

Zhou Jing kissed the child again. Having such a little cotton-padded jacket, Zhou Jing's heart was always touched.

"Dad just came back and is tired. Come with grandma."

After moving all the things back into the house, Wu Suqin clapped her hands and hugged the child.

"Uh, ah~"

The little girl started crying when she was forcibly taken away from Zhou Jing's arms.

"Daddy, hold me. Don't cry."

Zhou Jing quickly took the child back, and the child immediately calmed down in Zhou Jing's arms.

"You don't want grandma anymore now that you have a dad?" Gu Jia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at the child and said, "Dad hasn't eaten yet. Why don't you let him eat?"

The little girl looked aggrieved, her big clear eyes were watery.

Wu Suqin was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. For children, their parents are the closest to them at all times.

"If you don't come with mommy, daddy will be hungry. If daddy doesn't eat, he won't be able to hold you tomorrow. Are you coming?"

Gu Jia clapped his hands and said.

"Go with mom to let dad have dinner, okay? Dad will give you a hug after dinner."

Zhou Jing put the child in Gu Jia's arms.

"Uh-huh~"

The little girl snuggled obediently in Gu Jia's arms.

"Slug, is it a slug?"

Wu Suqin pinched the child's feet and went to the kitchen to put the things that needed to be refrigerated in the refrigerator.

Zhou Jing went to the bedroom to change into pajamas, washed his hands and ate first.

"I want dad to see enough."

Gu Jia sat at the dining table, holding the child and facing Zhou Jing.

"Smile for Daddy."

Zhou Jing gently pinched the child's chin.

"Wow~baba."

The little girl looked at Zhou Jing with an angelic smile.

Seeing his daughter's "charming" smile, Gu Jia sighed: "Is my daughter really her father's little lover in his previous life?"

"Is mom stupid?"

Zhou Jing scratched the child's face with his fingers and said.

"Did your aunt give you the crisp dates?"

Wu Suqin washed some crisp dates, grapes and apples and brought them to the table, as her son's grandfather's house did not have crisp dates.

"These dates are really sweet, and taste better than the ones you buy."

Gu Jia picked up a date that was not yet fully red. It was crisp and sweet.

"Yes, there are a lot of bugs without spraying pesticides. I ate ten this morning and half of them had bugs."

Zhou Jing picked up a grape and fed it to his daughter. His daughter opened her mouth, where her upper front teeth had already grown out. Zhou Jing pinched out the grape skin and seeds and fed the flesh to the child.

“Just think of it as a protein supplement.”

Gu Jia was a little more careful when eating dates. The second date had a worm in it, so she threw away the worm-infested part and ate the rest without worms. It was not easy to bring something from a long distance, and it was a pity to throw away the pure green food. She used to think that food with worms was unclean, but after Zhou Jing’s popular science explanation, Gu Jia understood that food with worms means it is healthier from another perspective, at least the pesticide content does not exceed the standard. Therefore, Gu Jia no longer throws away the rice at home when it has rice worms, but just washes the rice before cooking.

"Ah~" The grapes from my hometown are sour and sweet. The sour taste made the little girl shudder and she was about to speak.

"Do you still want to eat?"

Gu Jia was amused by her daughter's reaction. She tasted the grapes herself and found that they were indeed a bit sour.

The little girl shook her head and smacked her lips to avoid the attack.

"Come with Dad."

After dinner, Zhou Jing took the child from Gu Jia's arms.

“Smartphone sales have already exceeded one million, and I don’t know how long the popularity can last.”

Gu Jia picked up a small apple and ate it while talking, "The first generation of Ideal smartphone No. 1 was officially launched on the market. In four days, the activation volume of Ideal 1 exceeded , and the activation volume of Changxiang exceeded ."

"As long as there are no serious quality problems, sales will continue to improve."

Zhou Jing smiled. Ideal 1 and Imagine 1 received more than orders during the pre-sale period. After they were launched on the market, the market became better and better with excellent actual experience. The most important thing was that Ideal Technology had arranged offline stores in advance to cover cities at the municipal level across the country. The product experience was good, and with more than offline stores, the effect was not to be underestimated.

Only Zhou Jing had the courage to expand the physical store to such a large scale before the first generation of smartphones was released, spending four or five hundred million yuan. If he had not set up offline stores in advance, sales would have been greatly reduced.

It seems that the Ideal 1 has a stock of 1 units and the Imagine has a stock of million units, which is still conservative.

The smartphone sold over one million units in just four days after its launch, breaking the domestic record. Looking at all smartphone manufacturers in 12, only iPhone and Samsung could achieve this.

"It will be no problem to sell 5 million smartphones this year. Are there any problems with the supply chain and production capacity?"

Before the release of the smartphone, Zhou Jing said that this year's goal was five million units. At first, Gu Jia thought this goal was too big, but now it seems that five million units are a sure thing. As long as the production capacity can keep up, it is not impossible to sell three million units this month.

"no problem."

Ideal Technology reached a priority parts supply agreement with Samsung Electronics in July.

As for chips, Qualcomm is not a problem at all.

Currently, the main smartphone chips include iPhone's A series and Qualcomm's Snapdragon chips, as well as Samsung's self-developed chips for some models. iPhone and Samsung are undoubtedly the biggest competitors of Qualcomm chips. Capital is profit-seeking. As long as other brands of mobile phones can allow Qualcomm chips to occupy the market, even if it snatches iPhone's market share, Qualcomm will be happy to use this. With the performance of the Ideal 1, it will not be a problem to get Qualcomm's first launch next year.

Although Zhou Jing does not think that "Qualcomm's first launch" is an honorable thing, he has no choice at the moment. Before the independent chip is successfully developed, it is most important to take advantage of the competitive relationship between Apple, Samsung and Qualcomm and use Qualcomm chips to accumulate experience and capital as soon as possible. Learning foreign technology to defeat foreigners is still not outdated in modern times.

"If the monthly sales volume exceeds 3 million units, the current production capacity will not be able to keep up, and we need to continue to expand the factory."

Zhou Jing realized this problem. Ideal mobile phones have strict quality control, which greatly limits production capacity. The major domestic OEM factories are very pressed for orders, but it would be a good idea to take the opportunity to engage in hunger marketing.

“How much more production capacity do you plan to expand?”

If the smartphone is successful, Gu Jia also thinks the factory should be expanded.

"Add a factory with a monthly output of one million units."

Zhou Jing is still hesitating about whether to expand into a super factory. He feels that there is no need to set up a separate super factory. The company's own factory with a monthly production capacity of 2 million products is enough. After all, OEM has lower costs than having one's own factory.

"These past two days, there have been a lot of articles about hacking our phones. The digital world is totally unbearable."

Gu Jia's mentality is already very good, but he is still very angry when he sees so many people in the digital circle criticizing his own brand. Those haters are not ideal mobile phone users at all. They must be water armies hired by competitors. Some companies will do anything to confuse right and wrong in order to suppress their competitors.

"Just get used to it. This is business war."

Zhou Jing didn't take it seriously at all. Nowadays, few people read online reviews before buying a mobile phone. Even if they buy online, they will try it out in a physical store before placing an order online. It would be better for competitors to optimize their own products instead of slandering others.

This is the common nature of domestic enterprises, competing to be the grandsons of foreign suppliers and acting like mad dogs in China.

This is totally putting the cart before the horse.

Recently, Ideal smartphones have become the public enemy among domestic brands, threatening the cake of all competitors. However, competition is competition, and cooperation is cooperation as usual. In the past two years, Ideal Technology and Chuangzhi Technology have applied for many technical patents in the fields of smartphones and communications, and they also need to use the patents of friendly companies.

No matter how fierce the competition among domestic enterprises is, they generally will not block patents and prevent their competitors from using them. In fact, blocking is useless. If they are not allowed to use them, they will use them anyway. If they are not satisfied, they can sue. Patent infringement lawsuits between domestic companies usually take two to three years to have a result. Even if the lawsuit is won, they will not get much compensation. By that time, the defendant's infringing products will have been sold out. If they really can't sell them, they will be sued.

"Don't rely on Dad anymore. Mom will wash your face and help you go to bed."

After sitting for a while, Gu Jia took the child from Zhou Jing's arms and went to wash his face.

The little girl lay very comfortably in Zhou Jing's arms and was reluctant to leave when she was taken away.

Zhou Jing took a shower, then went to bed to play with the child. Gu Jia left to wash up.

"baba~"

"baba~"

"Daddy is here, what's up, little cutie?"

"heha~baba~"

The little girl lay on Zhou Jing and looked at him calling in a baby voice. Zhou Jing deliberately refused, but the little girl kept calling. After Zhou Jing agreed, the little girl smiled happily, and continued to call after laughing.

"Do you want to use the gourd to capture Dad?"

Zhou Jing touched the little girl’s head with his forehead.

"ha~"

The little girl laughed again.

"Hold on tight, Daddy is going to turn over."

Zhou Jing slowly turned over, and the little girl lying on him slid down little by little. When she was about to slide onto the bed, Zhou Jing straightened his body and put the child down.

The little girl laughed happily like a silver bell.

"What time is it and you're still not asleep?"

Gu Jia returned to the bedroom and put on a stern look.

"Mom is angry, go to bed quickly."

Zhou Jing closed his eyes and squinted at the child.

The little girl was still lying on Zhou Jing playing. Gu Jia patted her butt and said, "Do you want to sleep or not?"

"Oh~"

The little girl was fearless. After sliding off Zhou Jing, she crawled onto Gu Jia. She wanted to drink milk, so she lay on Gu Jia and nibbled her breasts through her clothes.

"You are such a naughty boy. You ate your nainai and didn't go to sleep. I will spank you."

Gu Jia said this as she rolled up her clothes and fed the child.

Zhou Jing held the child's feet and kneaded them with one hand, while opening his mobile phone with the other hand.

With the instant success of Ideal smartphones, the Ideal brand has become well-known in the digital circle. The sad voices that criticized Ideal Technology for taking the wrong path and reversing course due to the popularity of Ideal traditional smartphones and that it was China's technology have disappeared, including some big Vs, who deleted their posts but were still slapped in the face by netizens in the past few days to the point of closing their comment sections.

It can be seen from the digital circle that competitors are really panicking, including HUAWEI. According to the current trend, it is conservatively estimated that Ideal smartphones will sell 7 to 8 million units from September to December. It is not impossible to sell 10 million units if the production capacity can keep up. This will have a huge impact on the market. It is useless for them to be anxious. Competition in the market is so cruel that even a strong company like Nokia is being eliminated quickly, regardless of anyone's will.

In the next few years, more than 50 percent of domestic mobile phone brands will be eliminated.

Ideal smartphones have not been launched overseas yet. The company is planning to enter the international market. The price of the foreign trade version will be much higher than that of the domestic version. The price will also be different in different countries. The price in developed countries is the highest. The Ideal 1 is planned to be priced at RMB 3099 in developed countries, and the Imagine 1 is priced at RMB 1699 in developed countries.
Zhou Jing predicts that even if the Ideal smartphone is a few hundred yuan more expensive than in China, it will not sell badly abroad. There are not as many choices abroad as in China. There are more than ten domestic brands in China, and many countries do not even have a decent domestic brand. Before 16, the mobile phone market in developed countries was firmly occupied by iPhone and Apple.

Zhou Jing thought about what kind of reaction Ideal smartphones would cause if they entered the European and American markets now. Ideal smartphones are currently just compradors, and their advantage is that they have improved the Android system. Even if they enter the European and American markets, they should not be suppressed by Dmei. Moreover, Dmei is the largest supplier of Ideal smartphones.

Ideal Mobile is not in the same league as iPhone now. Its entry into the European and American markets is mainly to grab market share from Samsung. Both iPhone and its suppliers will be happy to see this happen.

For the Americans, it would be best to let China's comprador technology companies grow bigger, just like Lian Xiang, which has caused the domestic PC industry to completely fall into decline. The huge PC market depends entirely on assembly.

By making good use of the interests and conflicts among suppliers, Ideal Technology can at least win six or seven years of development time. Six or seven years is enough for Zhou Jing. He is confident that he can develop everything except the lithography machine.

"Stop moving around and go to sleep."

After feeding the child, Gu Jia put the child on his bed and went to the living room to pack the clothes in Zhou Jing's suitcase.

"When daddy counts to 1, little cutie, you have to fall asleep! Otherwise, daddy will spank you." Zhou Jing patted the child's butt and began to count softly: "2, 3, 4, "

Zhou Jing counted very slowly, with an interval of two or three seconds. The child fell asleep before he counted to 50. It was late at night, and Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to another bedroom to do some things that should be done in the evening.
