与大疆正面对决，新款无人机刚上市却遭密集批评，影石90后创始人回击

Core Viewpoint - The launch of the "影翎A1" drone by影石创新 has faced significant criticism regarding its sales performance, with rumors suggesting poor sales figures and rapid resale on second-hand platforms. However, the company's founder, Liu Jingkang, has countered these claims, asserting strong initial sales and positioning the product as a new growth avenue for the company [1][3]. Group 1: Product Launch and Market Response - The影翎A1, marketed as the world's first 8K panoramic drone, was launched with a price of 6,799 yuan after subsidies, and it weighs 249 grams, allowing for simplified flight regulations in many regions [3][4]. - Initial sales figures reported by Liu indicate that the影翎A1 generated over 30 million yuan in sales within 48 hours in China, with additional markets undergoing certification [1][3]. - Despite the positive sales figures, the product faced immediate resale on second-hand platforms at discounts ranging from 400 to 1,000 yuan, leading to a 6.01% drop in影石's stock price on the day following the launch [3][4]. Group 2: Competitive Landscape -影石 and DJI are engaged in fierce competition, with影石 having dominated the global consumer panoramic camera market for six consecutive years, while DJI holds over 70% of the global consumer drone market [2][6]. - Both companies have begun to encroach on each other's core markets, with DJI launching new products targeting影石's successful lines, while影石 introduced the影翎A1 to compete in the drone sector [7]. Group 3: Financial Performance and Investment -影石 reported a revenue of 6.611 billion yuan for the first three quarters of the year, a year-on-year increase of 67.18%, but the net profit attributable to shareholders decreased by 5.95% to 792 million yuan [8]. - The company has significantly increased its investment in research and development, with R&D expenditures reaching 1.085 billion yuan in the first three quarters, a 127.02% increase year-on-year [8]. - Despite the pressure from competition and the need for substantial investment,影石's stock has seen a remarkable increase of over 440% since its IPO, although it has dropped more than 30% from its peak in September [8].
