No eternal friend talks about the game between LeTV and Xiaomi


Millet and LeTV’s battles are constantly escalating. From the earlier encounters of the products to the content of the previous days, the battle between the two brands does not seem to be a sign of a close. Let the fire upgrade one step is that LeTV announced its capital injection and became its second largest shareholder, which means that LeTV will face up to the confrontation between mobile phone, the traditional strong battlefield of Xiaomi.

Since millet officially announced the launch of its mobile phone products in August 2011, Xiaomi’s attention has continued to skyrocket. After all, the price and configuration of 1999 yuan has a great advantage over Samsung’s Galaxy II. After this, Xiaomi will launch a new generation of Xiaomi phone every year and become more and more successful in business. LeEco was the first supplier of industry content, not the equipment manufacturer or even the hardware product brand, but LeTV S50 TV (parameter picture article) was popular with consumers after it was launched. After all, 3599 yuan can buy a 503D smart TV. And comes with music as a member of the year, video resources at least do not worry.

Originally, LeTV and Xiaomi each did different industries. It could be said that wells did not commit any crimes. However, Xiaomi had great ambitions. After making phone calls, he once again played TV ideas. Unfortunately, millet TVs lacking resources are always tepid. In 2015, LeTV introduced new products such as the X50 Air, and Millet naturally released the second generation of millet TVs (parametric picture articles). However, according to the 2014 annual data, the activation of millet TVs is only 1/5 of that of LeTV. This shows that although Xiaomi’s brand is very strong, it is still unable to compete with the earlier LeTV in the television field.

In fact, the characteristics of the two brands are obvious. They are all Internet brands without physical factories. LeTV has resources and Xiaomi has systems. However, consumers' choices are obviously more inclined to LeTV. Of course, this is not to say that Xiaomi TV is not good. It's just that Xiaomi's product entry point is obviously problematic. At least on TV products, Xiaomi can't be as strong as a mobile phone. As an internet brand, product positioning and content qualifications are very important. Xiaomi is currently the best example of a videoless music video without a license.

In smart TV market, whether it is LeTV or Xiaomi, they represent the Internet brands. Their sales are far from traditional TV brands. Hisense, TCL and even Skyworth Changhong have maintained their absolute position in China. Internet TV brands are more like the use of additional space to compete for smaller segments of the market, but these markets will face the challenges of traditional Internet products such as Skyworth Cool Open and Changhong. In particular, although traditional TV brands must have a panel factory like TCL/Hua Xing Optronics, at the very least, they have their own manufacturing plants. The experience and channels over the years have ensured the control of product costs. The biggest weakness of Internet brand TV is that there is no production line. Whether it is materials or assembly lines are in the hands of others, the control of costs cannot be compared with traditional brands.

However, the biggest feature of the Internet brand is that the propaganda force is super strong. No matter whether LeTV or Xiaomi has never been short of lace news, it is indeed a news that let the fire of Xiaomi and Letv intensify further. The news recently that LeTV purchased nearly 18% of Coolpad’s shares from nearly 2.2 billion yuan, which makes LeTV the second largest shareholder of Coolpad. Although Coolpad is not a top brand in the domestic mobile phone industry, Coolpad in China does indeed have a large share. In particular, the cooperation with operators in the 4G era made its cheap models very popular, and the big gods in the middle The series also received much attention.

A few days ago, Xiaomi announced that Red Rice 2A had reduced his price by 499. He had already reacted independently from the God of Cool. He immediately responded by reducing the F1 Plus to 399. This diametrical confrontation immediately detonated the unpleasantness of the backlog of millet hearts. After all, the configuration of the Great God F1 Plus is much higher than that of the red rice 2A, and the price is even lower. On the other hand, LeTV had previously launched a super mobile phone. Its appearance and configuration were very good. However, the previously announced costs hardened the dissatisfaction of the supply chain and caused a so-called mass production crisis. However, after LeTV took a stake in Coolpad, Its industry chain will change greatly. Although the joint view of LeTV and Coolpad is not a strong alliance, it is still very worthwhile. However, since 360 ​​and Cool Company’s company Qikuo have already completed the business acquisition of the independent brand Great God Mobile, For 360 boss Zhou Hong t's, it must not be too comfortable, after all, Coolpad has established a new company with a joint venture with 360, and the other side is himself with LeTV. However, the possibility of a joint move by the three is also not lost. After all, their enemies are the same.

The IT industry has no eternal enemies nor permanent friends. NVIDIA, which had been cooperating with AMD in the past, will be defeated by today's enemies. There is nothing impossible in the industry. Of course, there is no need to worry about consumers. As the saying goes, there is competition for development.

PS: Thanks to LeTV for lowering the TV price, thanks to Miller for lowering the price of the mobile phone~
