Chapter 217 What a Great International Version! (Good luck on the college entrance exam)
Moreover, those thirty million are just the current numbers; the continuously flipping digits on the screen indicate that a large number of viewers are rushing over.
We have to mention that in just these few days, the download volume for the Nuclear Creation Community has surpassed seventy million!
This is absolutely a terrifying number!
Even the internet tycoon Brother Xiao Ma couldn't help but exclaim 'amazing' when he saw these numbers.
And immediately, Brother Xiao Ma sent a senior manager from Penguin to negotiate a partnership.
Currently, the person sitting in the front row near the center is him.
However, Lin Yi glanced at the screen displaying the livestream with the words 'profiteer' everywhere, and simply smiled slightly.
After waiting for a moment and letting the situation ferment, he leisurely began to speak:
"Hehe, I want to express my sincerest gratitude for everyone's great love for the Core Fruit phone.
Since we announced a price exceeding thirty thousand, we can't let everyone down.
So after a company meeting, we've decided that the first generation overseas version of the Core Fruit will officially be priced at 30,096 yuan!"
At this moment, Lin Yi was undoubtedly like dropping a droplet of water into a pot of boiling oil, instantly dashing the remaining hopes of everyone, while the words 'profiteer' on the screen spun even faster.
The people in the front row, such as Op Chen, exchanged glances and then all revealed a subtle smile.
In Op Chen's heart, he couldn't help but snort coldly, 'Hmph, still too young and vigorous. With such a good hand, you managed to squander everything...'
Although such a price wouldn't deter everyone—after all, there are many rich people, and given how excellent the Core Fruit phone is, targeting the high-end market can still earn a fortune.
But if it were someone else, like Op Chen, he definitely wouldn't set such a high price. He'd first capture as much market as possible, then introduce a custom high-end version. Isn't that a better strategy?
However, just as Op Chen shook his head inwardly at Lin Yi's youthful naivety, Lin Yi's voice rang out again:
"Everyone, please be at ease. Hehe, it looks like you might not have fully understood my words.
Let me explain once more.
The price I just mentioned, 30,096 yuan, is for the first generation overseas version of Core Fruit, not the domestic price."
After these words, everyone inside and outside the venue was taken aback, not understanding what Lin Yi was up to.
However, it was clear that his words had captured everyone's attention—the spinning words 'profiteer' on the screen had already begun to slow down.
"I previously mentioned that the final domestic price of this phone wouldn't exceed the price of the iPhone 12. Since I said it, I'll make sure to follow through.
The reason I emphasized the overseas version's price of 30,096 yuan is because our system is entirely compiled in Chinese.
While the overseas version and the domestic version simply add a foreign language option, transforming Chinese assembly to foreign languages doubles the cost."
At this moment, people in the livestream couldn't wait any longer.
Brother Xiao Mo: "Lin the Slacker, stop with the nonsense and just announce the domestic price! Let's see if I can afford it!"
Broken Bridge*Heartache: "Be quick, I don't care how much you sell it abroad, I only care about the domestic price! Let me just say, if it's over ten thousand, I'm out!"
...
Similar comments quickly filled the screen. After glancing at them, Lin Yi suddenly laughed and pointed at the light screen beside him, displaying the two messages.
"Hehe, staff, note this down. Give each of these guys a free Core Fruit phone!"
With Lin Yi's words, the names and avatars of 'Brother Xiao Mo' and 'Broken Bridge*Heartache' immediately popped up.
Immediately, a stream of comments came pouring in: 'Damn, I want one too!'
However, at this point, Lin Yi had already shifted his focus back to the reporters below and continued with his previous topic:
"Alright, let's skip the small talk. Everyone knows it's expensive abroad anyway, so let me announce the domestic price now.
To keep my promise, we've set the price at a number significantly lower than the [iPhone] 12. It's a number that's very popular here in Huaxia. That number is 6666!"
Wow...
With Lin Yi announcing the price of 6,666 yuan, the venue once again fell into silence before erupting into commotion!
This price shocked everyone; no one expected Nuclear Technology's final pricing to be so surprisingly low.
Six thousand six hundred sixty-six is even much lower than the prices of many phones today!
To not exaggerate, even if Lin Yi set the price at thirty thousand, people might complain verbally but would internally accept it!
[To be continued...]
ps: Wishing all the younger siblings taking the college entrance exams today to pass each subject smoothly and make it to the scoreboard!
Good luck, little brother 'Ye Zi'!
