Chapter 776 (1/2)
After repeated tests, Donne returned to Ellington with satisfaction.
”The test result is perfect. Although there are still some small problems, it does not affect the use and can start production.”
Donne first gave them a positive conclusion, and then said, ”but just now I did a interference test. The magic aggregation caused by strong casting behavior will cause interference signals. If you can, you'd better solve this problem later.”
Yustisa thought for a moment and said, ”I have a solution. As long as I find a way to correct the abnormal fluctuation caused by magic gathering, it's not very difficult.”
So Donne was very relieved to hand over the task of developing magic wave anti-interference module to yustisa.
This anti-interference module is not in a hurry to add it now. After all, product development can't be fat at one bite like people. Now the magic phone has reached the level of commercial use. If it is introduced to the market as soon as possible, it can start to promote the development of this society as soon as possible.
After the anti-interference module is developed, the second generation products will be released.
”But now the cost of magic phone is difficult to reduce to less than 20 gold coins.”
Jean frowned and said, ”the magic materials consumed above are worth 50 gold coins at the cost price, not to mention our technical cost. If you want to sell at the price of 20 gold coins, you will lose 30 gold coins if you sell one. Are you sure you want to do so?”
Donne frowned: ”can't mass production reduce costs?”
”After all, the magic dust consumed and the magic metal used to depict the magic channel are very expensive. Even the inferior magic dust needs ten gold coins.”
Gene sighed and said, ”in fact, if it weren't for the powerful effect of universal alloy, the magic metal consumed on a magic phone alone would be worth more than 500 gold coins.”
Donne frowned: ”how much can the lowest cost be pressed at present? No profit is calculated.”
”Do you want to subsidize production?”
Jean was stunned and said, ”if only the material and production costs are calculated, the price of a magic phone can be reduced to about 80 gold coins.”
Fifty gold coins are the cost of materials, and thirty gold coins are the production cost, including the loss of production equipment, personnel wages and transportation costs, most of which are the wages of staff.
Yes, with more and more workers in Datang chamber of Commerce, the monthly salary expenditure has gradually become the big head. The salary accounting of the whole Datang chamber of commerce is all on Fiona. Thanks to her promotion to a gold level magician, she is more agile, otherwise she will be tired to death.
”Eighty gold coins can only maintain the cost...”
After pondering for a moment, Donne said, ”let's slowly popularize the plan of magic phone for the time being and let the people at the bottom of society wait. Anyway, they don't have such a strong demand for information exchange.”
Although Donne wants to promote the mobile phone popularization plan as soon as possible, if he sells a mobile phone, he has to give money to it. It is estimated that he will go bankrupt soon, so he gave up the plan for the time being.
Donne called Fiona and began to give a series of orders.
”Immediately set up a magic phone factory, which is specially responsible for the production of 'Datang' series magic phones. All the resources and manpower needed can be used at will. The priority is raised to a higher level, second only to the military industry. Inform the logistics department to start purchasing the raw materials required for production immediately and reserve the raw materials.”
”Inform Alice that the appearance of Datang series magic phones should be designed according to the design drawings of magic phones, and there should be obvious differences between them. It is required that people can quickly attract people's attention when they take out magic phones to make a phone call. This desire for comparison will be a major driving force to promote the market.”
”The ordinary version of magic phone is positioned in the low-end civilian market. It is priced at 99 gold coins, code named 'wheat'. It provides basic communication functions. The shell is mainly made of low-cost universal alloy. The appearance requirements are simple and simple. Don't waste too much energy.”
Although the performance of universal alloy is superior, because of the large demand, Ellington mass production, and now has carried out technical upgrading and capacity expansion, the cost is very low, and this alloy with superior performance has become the representative of cheap materials.
”The advanced version of magic phone locates the middle-end adventurer and mercenary market. It is priced at 199 gold coins, code named 'sword', and provides basic call and text message functions. The shell is also mainly made of low-cost universal alloy. The appearance should conform to the adventurer's aesthetics, and must be convenient and durable to adapt to various climates and environments.”
”The deluxe version of magic power mobile phone is positioned in the market of ordinary nobles and businessmen. It is priced at 1999 gold coins, code named 'balance', and increases the video call function. The shell is mainly magic iron. The appearance requires luxury and atmosphere, which can reflect the identity.”
”The supreme version of the magic phone locates the princes and nobles. It is priced at 19999 gold coins, code named 'Scepter'. The function is the same as that of the balance. The shell is mainly made of refined gold. The appearance is noble and restrained, durable and noble.”
”In addition, the limited edition mobile phones sold to senior members of Datang chamber of commerce are required to place an order in advance, and the goods can be obtained at least one week later. The core is made by the factory, and the shell is made by me. It is divided into secret silver version and AOJIN version. There are 99999 gold coins in secret silver version and 199999 gold coins in AOJIN version, ensuring that each model is Prandal's unique noble product! ”
Gene and others standing next to him were stunned and looked at Donne, especially gene. Now they were almost eager to jump!
Shit, I knew this guy was a local tyrant, but I didn't expect him to be so inhuman!
