Chapter 1074

"Dong Dong!" with a burst of hasty footsteps, one of Christopher's secretaries came to Christopher's identity and handed over a report in his hand to Christopher.

Christopher looked at it, and there was an indescribable expression on his face.

"President? What happened?" the executives around asked curiously. It's impossible to say here. They hummed coldly, "it's no big deal. Nokia announced that their Nokia 8110 would reduce the price!"

Christopher circulated the report to all the senior executives, and everyone found out why. Originally, Nokia suddenly announced that in order to celebrate the important anniversary of the 130th anniversary of the founding of Nokia group, Nokia decided to sell all mobile phone models currently on sale at a 10% discount for a month!

"10% off all!" everyone at Motorola was shocked at the news. Other old models of mobile phones aside, this time the latest Nokia 8110 should also be in the ranks of discount sales.

According to the 10% discount, the price of Nokia 8110 will drop by $300, which is even greater than the $200 planned by Christopher.

Not to mention that all Nokia mobile phones are discounted. Is it true that Nokia is completely crazy? How can they make money if the $300 profit is let out, or does Nokia not intend to make money at all?

They don't know. Even if Nokia gives a 10% discount on all its mobile phones, it will make a lot of money.

"Unfortunately, if Motorola is two years away from the 70th anniversary, otherwise we can also make a full discount. These guys of Nokia are too cunning!" Christopher lamented in his heart.

Nokia's excuse is really great, because the company's 130th anniversary and a 10% discount, this reason will not give too much anger to customers who have just bought mobile phones and face price cuts.

After all, this activity is only once in 130 years. I happened to run into it. In order to celebrate my anniversary, I specially reduced the price. I can't criticize others!

Moreover, Nokia also specifically stated that the activity lasted only one month, and after one month, the prices of all mobile phones will return to the original price.

So as soon as Nokia comes out with this excuse, there is no need to worry about customer opposition.

The promotion effect brought by the price reduction is extremely obvious. Only about half of the whole October, the sales volume of Nokia 8110 soared by 500000 units, directly surpassing the sales volume of Motorola startac, which originally ranked second, up to 200000 units.

On the contrary, Motorola's market is crazy occupied by Nokia. Anyway, it's all slide phones, and the force of products is almost the same. Who doesn't buy it? Why don't you buy one that's $300 cheaper?

Christopher, who felt great pressure, held a meeting on the price reduction of mobile phones again, and Christopher also made up his mind. This time, no matter how the executives objected, he must reduce the price, otherwise the sales volume of Motorola startac will become a joke.

As for the reasons for the price reduction, Christopher has thought it over. Next month will be the 30th anniversary of the death of Johnson Calvin, the founder of Motorola and the grandfather of Christopher Calvin. Therefore, Christopher plans to reduce the price of Motorola startac by 10% on the grounds of commemorating the 30th anniversary of Johnson Calvin's death, Just like Nokia.

Well, in terms of reasons, this reason is similar to Nokia's. But the problem is that in order to commemorate the death of a founder, there are big discounts, which seems very funny to say.

But Christopher golvin can't help it. Who makes this time too embarrassing? No one can commemorate it except grandpa!

Not surprisingly, Christopher Galvin's second discount intention was strongly opposed once again as soon as it was said at the high-level meeting.

However, Christopher golvin was ruthless. He directly ignored these executives and imposed this plan as president and chairman.

However, when Christopher Galvin signed, a large group of old men suddenly appeared in the conference room.

Seeing these old men, Christopher golvin was half discouraged, because these old men are all directors of Motorola's board of directors. Their intention to appear here at this time is very obvious.

However, in order to take care of Christopher's face, these old men asked everyone else to leave and talked with Christopher for a long time in the conference room.

The content is nothing more than that you have made a big mistake. We old guys ignore the past and still keep your position as chairman. You should know how to repay your kindness.

Then they all know that it's really inappropriate for the old chairman to hold activities on his anniversary. Even God can't see it.

In addition, if the price is reduced by $300, Motorola's profits will be given up, which will lead to a decline in investor confidence and their shares... Of course, it doesn't matter if the stock price drops. The key is that Motorola, as a high-end enterprise, can't rely on discounts to obtain sales. It should develop better products.

Finally, these old men said that they were very satisfied with Motorola startac, and they were also very satisfied with Christopher's work. Christopher would not make trouble.

However, this still couldn't convince Christopher, but finally, an old man said faintly, "don't take everyone's interests to save your face. Isn't it just weeding someone else's yard? I didn't complain about anything except weeding your old chairman all my life. You just went to work for a day. It's better to polish it if you are young and frustrated!"

As soon as this sentence was said, Christopher was completely speechless, because in this way, if he insisted, it would appear that Christopher cut the price in order to avoid weeding thousands of weeds.

After all, before Nokia's price reduction, Motorola ranked second, and there was no need to weed Jia Yapeng's yard, but now Nokia's performance has surpassed, and the weeder has become Christopher.

"Well, I won't reduce the price this time!" finally, Christopher gave in, and the directors showed a satisfied expression, but Christopher continued "Predecessors, we can not reduce the price this time, but with the rise of everyone, it is impossible to sell a mobile phone to $3000. In the future, the mobile phone will be reduced to the level between $1000 and $2000. If we don't change the sales strategy, I'm afraid Motorola's mobile phone business will be completely replaced."

"We old guys know that!" the directors nodded. "However, profit always comes first. If there is no profit, the company will really collapse. If you want to reduce the price, the profit can't be reduced. This is our bottom line!"
