realme plans to release the GT6 series of mobile phones overseas on June 20, but now a more embarrassing thing has happened, that is, the realme GT6 was snatched by robbers in the process of transportation, and the GT6 will not be guaranteed to be on the shelves of local stores this week.

According to realme officials, this batch of new GT6 products was robbed on the way to Spain, when the driver of the transport vehicle was resting in the service area, he was robbed by robbers at gunpoint, and they removed the goods in the car, including the GT6 series mobile phones.

realme said that the stolen GT6 could never be recovered, but Xu Qi responded that the global launch event went on as usual. The new machines that were snatched away will naturally not have much impact on the press conference, but will only affect the stocking of some stores on the release date.

In fact, in addition to the GT6 being robbed, other mobile phone manufacturers have also encountered similar incidents in Europe.

For example, in 2018, on the eve of the OPPO Find X conference held in Paris, France, some experience machines were arranged. However, after receiving the express delivery from the logistics company, I found that there were a few less experience machines, and the thief was very knowledgeable, and he also tore off the IMEI number sticker of the corresponding machine attached to the logistics box.

Fortunately, OPPO was not very famous overseas at that time, and the appearance of the OPPO Find X was not exposed by thieves. Later, OPPO overseas staff found the stolen OPPO Find X on the black market in a certain African country and paid for it.

While it sounds ridiculous to spend money on your own stolen phone, the lack of exposure is the best outcome. However, due to the high attention of OPPO Find X, some overseas technology media released relevant evaluation reports in advance despite the confidentiality agreement, which ultimately disrupted OPPO's normal publicity rhythm.
