What is the reason for boycotting iPhone? Is it because its ability to make money is too strong and domestic mobile phones cannot compete with it?

Why don't you use domestic mobile phones? Why can't I use Apple phones? Don't you know that the entire network is boycotting Apple now? Yes, I know that almost everyone on the Internet is advocating a boycott of Apple, but I don't understand why! First, Apple does not compete with domestic mobile phones for market share! Second, Apple does not compete with domestic mobile phones for sales! Third, Apple has never publicly excluded any domestic brands! Fourth, Apple's trade behavior in my country is honest! Fifth, Apple has never been soft on my country's development and construction! From these aspects, I can't find any reason to boycott Apple!

On the contrary, the words and deeds of domestic mobile phone manufacturers make me feel uncomfortable! Let’s not talk about the various fake news at the press conference, the high degree of “reference” in product design, and the malicious fabrication, fabrication, and smearing by online writers, I can also turn a blind eye! However, it is difficult to obey the behavior of showing off feelings and directly or indirectly inducing others to boycott competitors. As a resident of a country with a cultural heritage of 5,000 years, I really can’t stand it! Why boycott Apple? Some people say that Western countries maliciously target my country’s technology companies, so Apple should be boycotted! Then, there are many foreign companies at home and abroad, why Apple?

Take the IT industry for example. IBM, SAP, and Microsoft are all very powerful and have a wide coverage. In the manufacturing industry, there are Mitsubishi, Hyundai, Honda, Suzuki, General Motors, Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz. In the catering industry, there are Coca-Cola, Pepsi, McDonald's, KFC, Pizza Hut, etc. According to the reasons for boycotting Apple, I think they all need to be boycotted! But why boycott only Apple? I believe this is also a question that many people are puzzled about. However, the answer to this question seems to have been answered in my heart! I don’t know if you still remember what a Huawei executive said at its developer conference some time ago. I remember he said at the time: "He said that Apple's market share is only 13%, but it took 66% of the profits, while domestic mobile phones have a total of more than 50% of the global market share, but only about 10% of the profits."

How much money does Apple make that makes Huawei's executives sigh? As usual, here are the data! According to the 2021 Global Smartphone Revenue Report (Q1) released by Counterpoint, a world-renowned data research company, in the past first quarter, the overall revenue of the global smartphone market exceeded US$100 billion for the first time, and Apple won the championship with a 42% share! Samsung ranked second, OPPO ranked third, vivo ranked fourth, and Xiaomi ranked fifth with a 7.6% share! I believe that after looking at the data, everyone understands, right? The global smartphone market has a total revenue of US$100 billion, of which 42% is taken away by Apple. This is a lot of money! However, this is not the point. The point is that using the sales volume that domestic mobile phones like to boast about, Apple's overall shipments are only ranked second.

Do you feel like the clouds have been cleared and the sun has risen after seeing this set of data? That's right, this is the answer to why I boycotted Apple! It is obvious that Apple can make money, and its profits have always been at the top of the industry, but what if Apple "accidentally" falls? After all, 100 billion US dollars is approximately equal to 42% of 647300000000 RMB, which is an astronomical figure. If this part of the profit space is released, more than one company will surely be well-fed! Although it is a good thing that everyone can have enough to eat, and from the perspective of human nature, it is enough to be a reason to boycott Apple, but don't believe me, this is not the real reason to boycott Apple! So what is the purpose of my mentioning this set of data? To make everyone happy? No, this set of data can only prove Apple's success! But do you know that there will be failures after success, and losers will never have dignity in front of winners!

Therefore, if domestic mobile phone manufacturers want to gain dignity and succeed, they must defeat Apple! However, according to the current situation, they do not have the ability and strength to defeat Apple, so boycotting is undoubtedly the best shortcut to solve the current dilemma! Boycotting Apple can not only release a lot of market space, but most importantly, it can also cover up the fact of its own failure! Recently, the tone of domestic mobile phones surpassing Apple is particularly strong, but everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the pretense of domestic mobile phones! And what Huawei executives said undoubtedly confirmed this, so why did domestic mobile phones fail? Where did they fail? This is also the reason for boycotting Apple, because the existence of Apple can map out the points of failure of domestic mobile phone manufacturers one by one! His model, his philosophy, his grasp and understanding of the market situation, etc. are all factors that promote his success. On the contrary, domestic mobile phones are certainly lacking in these aspects!

Take the tactics of launching a large number of mobile phones that domestic mobile phone manufacturers usually use. Apple does not need it, and Nokia, which was famous for launching a large number of mobile phones, has long disappeared. This shows that this model is wrong and is not conducive to long-term development. Apple has learned a lesson, but what about domestic mobile phone manufacturers? They rely heavily on the sales brought by this tactic, and even use sales to pretend that they are very powerful! Celebrity endorsements are also a good example! Apple is not not inviting celebrities to endorse its products, but it does not rely on celebrity endorsements. What is its confidence? The logo with a missing piece is the best spokesperson. On the other hand, domestic mobile phone manufacturers are not a good brand without celebrity endorsements! How can people with this kind of cognition and thinking succeed? Of course, their current wealth is far beyond the reach of ordinary people like me who can only type on the keyboard, but there are many who go bankrupt overnight!

Finally, let me give you an example from my personal experience. There was a top student in school. In everyone's eyes, he slept in class and was the most active in eating, but he always ranked first in every exam. This was undoubtedly a psychological torture for the second and even the third place students. They had to get up early and stay up late every day, constantly memorizing and doing different papers. The pressure can be imagined! But then one day they were relieved. Why? Because the first place student skipped a grade and transferred to another school! The second and third place students took this opportunity to become the first and second place students, and they lived a beautiful campus life that was superior to others! Substituting this example into the current domestic mobile phones, you will find that they have amazing similarities! So what is the purpose of publishing this article today? Domestic mobile phones should face up to some problems, that's all!
