Chapter 703 Dimensionality Reduction Strike
The P2 will be a hot seller. In fact, it is not beyond the expectations of Wall Street analysts. The pre-sale of 2 units of the P35 is enough to shock everyone.

But on the first day of launch, 72 units were sold, more than twice the pre-sale, which exceeded the expectations of Wall Street analysts, and also made the previous analysis of the technological content of P2 disappear in the technology circle.

What's the use of more analysis, P2's technical level, 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!
Regardless of whether it is the best or not, users like this one anyway, making decisions with their toes, not the data of those analysts, or the pointers of electronic giants.

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

The Wall Street Journal directly stated that Alcatel mobile phone is now a big brother in the mobile phone industry.

"P1 mobile phone sales may set a new mobile phone sales record. On the first day of P2's release today, P1 officially started to cut prices. In Latin America, Eastern Europe, South Asia and other places, P1 mobile phones today set a new single-day sales of 50 units. , P1 global sales exceeded 500 million units!"

The New York Times reported a news outside the mainstream media that the price of the P299, which was reduced to 1 dollars a piece, was completely sold out today. The 499 dollars a piece of mobile phone, placed in these people whose monthly income is less than a few hundred dollars It may feel a bit expensive, but what about the $299?
The launch of the P2 not only did not affect the P1, but on the contrary, the sales of the P1 mobile phone rebounded and exploded completely.
Thirty-five million have been sold, and the sales of 500 million will be far behind?

The P1 mobile phone after the price reduction just formed a cooperation with the P2 mobile phone, allowing Alcatel to enter the ordinary mobile phone market. Dimensionality reduction strikes.

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

The world is written by the winners, and only the winners will be recorded. Alcatel's mobile phone sales of one million units on the first day made various media start to praise Alcatel mobile phones wildly.

"Although it has only been released for two generations, it will definitely have 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 is also leading the trend of the mobile phone era, just like reshaping its founder Bruno Song, doing everything in the Internet era, Alcatel is also leading the mobile phone industry Follow the trend! "

The American Computer News directly defined the Alcatel P series mobile phones as a series of classic electronic products, and directly established the status of Alcatel mobile phones in the arena.

The major financial and technology media are all touting Alcatel mobile phones, but they are not without belittling.

Colleagues are enemies, and the Japanese news media declared that "Alcatel P2 mobile phone is a pile of electronic waste!"

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

This Japanese media reported several crimes of the Alcatel P2 mobile phone with fierce words, and believed that the appearance of this mobile phone is a nightmare for the music industry.

According to this Japanese media report, the Alcatel P1 mobile phone sold more than 6 units in Japan that day, becoming the most popular mobile phone and music player for a new generation of Japanese young people. The sales volume of the proud Walkman in Japan fell by at least 15% compared with the usual day, which is the case in Japan, and it can be imagined in other regions.

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

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

But regardless of whether it is electronic waste or not, the hot sales of P2 cannot be stopped. Young people all over the world are proud to own a P2 mobile phone!

As for the industries related to Alcatel P2 mobile phones, when the market opened on the second day, they all rose sharply across the board.

The first is the component suppliers of Alcatel's mobile phone concept stock, including 3M, whose stock prices have risen by more than 20.00%.

In two days, the stock price of the Houston Dukler Chemical Plant, which supplies lithium batteries for Alcatel mobile phones, exploded by 50%, and its market value officially exceeded [-] billion US dollars!

This is the first company among the new supply chain manufacturers relying on Alcatel mobile phones to break through the market value of 3 billion U.S. dollars, not established companies such as [-]M and Knowles. It also marks that Alcatel's mobile phone concept stock has officially taken shape.

The reason for such a surge is inseparable from the praise of Wall Street analysts. Wall Street analysts from various institutions have given sales forecasts for Alcatel P2 mobile phones. Among them, analysts from Deutsche Bank Investment Bank directly gave an astonishing With an annual shipment of 4000 million units, it surpassed Motorola and became the second largest mobile phone brand in the world after Nokia!
Various analysts predict that global sales will continue to soar this year, and global shipments will reach about 5000 million units, while Nokia's sales are estimated at about [-] million units.

Nokia's 5000 million sales, plus Alcatel's 4000 million mobile phones, the two together account for almost half of the global mobile phone industry!
This can be said, Alcatel mobile phone called all mobile phone brands to eat together, and then let Nokia stand up, add Motorola at most, and then face Ericsson, Sony, Samsung, Siemens, Panasonic Waiting for a group of mobile phone manufacturers to say, "Everyone sitting here is..."

It's hard to say whether the estimated sales are accurate, but this forecast directly detonated the concept stocks of Alcatel mobile phones. As long as the stocks related to Alcatel mobile phones are connected, they will go crazy.

Think about it, with the shipment of 4000 million phones, the annual revenue of Alcatel's mobile phone has exploded directly. The profit of a single phone of Alcatel's mobile phone is much higher than that of Nokia. Backed by Alcatel's mobile phone, almost all supply chain manufacturers , I'm going to make money like crazy.

Not only one Alcatel mobile phone supply chain manufacturer 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 that all the money has been sent to the hands, but the result is that there is no food, how does it feel, and now the supply chain manufacturers of Alcatel mobile phones have experienced it.

Previously, Alcatel's mobile phone was prepared to produce 200 million P2 phones per month, but at noon the next day, it was announced that it was out of stock in America, and then in various parts of Europe, the first batch of 200 million phones to be put on the market was abrupt. Couldn't hold out for two days and sold 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 25 people.

Coupled with the continuous relocation of other supporting manufacturers, the number of people that the entire industrial park can accommodate is almost no different from that of a small town.

Coupled with the high salaries offered by Alcatel mobile phones to R&D personnel and engineers, ordinary employees are also much higher than those of other companies. Around the industrial park, a huge consumer market has formed, making several people around the Alcatel mobile phone park in Yanjing The housing prices in this community abruptly broke through the [-] mark.

You must know that the average housing price in Yanjing at this time is only more than 2000, and the fine decoration does not exceed [-]. Of course, those places in Yanjing Villa District cannot be compared. Villas have been scarce since ancient times, and it is impossible to compare with ordinary land prices, but Alcatel mobile phones The housing prices around the industrial park are quite high in Yanjing.

Along with Alcatel's mobile phone concept stocks, there are also telecom concept stocks. Two days after the launch of Alcatel P2, America Telecom announced that more than 51 users had opened ring tones, that is, the proportion of users who purchased Alcatel P2 mobile phones and activated ring tones , at around 25%, one out of four people subscribes to and subscribes to ring back tones, especially young users.

This news caused the entire telecommunications stocks in America to fall into a carnival. Think about how many mobile phone users there are in America now. Now that other telecommunications operators don’t provide ring tone services, it doesn’t mean they won’t provide them in the future. , there are at least a few million CRBT users, and the revenue of CRBT in America is around tens or even tens of billions of dollars. Such a fat meat, which telecom operator would not be greedy!

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

The benefits brought by the mobile Internet, such as data traffic, color ring tones, and multimedia messages, are almost like a gold mine, which is displayed in the eyes of major telecommunications giants in America.

"The era of mobile Internet is coming!"

ICQ and America Telecom were the first to put forward the concept of mobile Internet, but it was the major telecom operators who were the first to shout slogans.

Almost all telecommunications giants, including WorldCom, Verizon, SBC, Chartered Communications, Princeton, etc., 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 have directly started the rocket mode.
