Indian slogan

With India's increasingly fierce resistance to China products, AIMRA recently sent a letter to China mobile phone manufacturers, including Xiaomi, vivo, OPPO, Yijia mobile phone and other China brands, including Motorola, realme, Huawei, etc. What he said in the letter is that they are worried about the current situation in India, which may hurt retail stores. And they also said: the damage of these boards should not be borne by retailers, because the situation is beyond our control. "

Seeing this, you should understand Xiaomi's practice. In fact, it is to protect the store from harm, so we will use Indian manufacturing to cover the logo. Of course, except Xiaomi, other manufacturers have not acted yet, and many people have begun to misinterpret it. Actually, I don't think it's necessary In addition, Xiaomi has two reasons for doing this:

First of all, according to the industry leaders. Xiaomi has now covered most national capital areas such as Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune, Agra and Patna. The focus is on market share of 30%. Let's take a look at a smartphone market share ranking released by India. The data shows that it is the first quarter of 2020. We will find that Xiaomi's market share in India has reached 30%, ranking first. I think there is nothing wrong with India's request and explanation. When we add up the shares of Xiaomi, OV and realme, we will find that China mobile phone brands have occupied 72% of the Indian mobile phone market.

In fact, many people will be surprised to see this, but I have to say that this is the case. Xiaomi has developed in India for several years, with high cost performance and relatively low profit. Therefore, if it is built in India, it will save the link of tariffs, which is really convenient. India has a large population and relatively cheap labor.

Recently, Manu Kumar Jain, general manager of Xiaomi India, said in an interview. When talking about India's plan to impose new tariffs on more than 300 kinds of China products, Xiaomi said that this has little impact on Xiaomi, because more than 99% of the mobile phones sold by Xiaomi in India are made in India, and 65% of the product components are directly purchased or manufactured in India. Of course, in addition, Xiaomi also asked employees not to wear work clothes as much as possible to avoid being hurt.

In fact, we know that India's own development in science and technology is really weak, so although it seems that they want to ban China products, it doesn't really affect them, because their own R&D ability is limited, local brands really fail to live up to expectations, and most Indian manufacturers are from other countries, not just China brands, including some netizens who said before: It is ok to ban foreign brands, but are you sure you can make better mobile phones than China manufacturers?
