Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1380 Sense of Crisis

"No problem, I'll wait for your news." Duan Yun smiled and nodded, then raised his glass.

"Thank you, Manager Duan, for your hospitality!" Seeing this, Liu Chuanzhi and Ni Guangnan raised their wine glasses and touched Duan Yun.

Then they ate and chatted, and when they left, Duan Yun wanted to arrange for them to stay in a guest house, but Liu Chuanzhi politely declined, saying that he would go back to the hotel and fly back to BJ tomorrow.

Seeing this, Duan Yun did not force them. After leaving the cafeteria, Duan Yun arranged for a driver to take them back to the hotel in Shenzhen.

"I really didn't expect that this Tianyin Group is more powerful than it is advertised in the newspapers and that so many colleagues from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have joined their company. I really can't figure out how this Duan Yun supernatural power can be so big?" After returning to the hotel, Ni Guangnan said with some emotion.

"The Tianyin Group is willing to spend money. Just now I asked Huang Lingyi in private. She said that her monthly basic salary is 5000 yuan. In addition, there are various subsidies, year-end bonuses, and miscellaneous rewards. Calculated on average More than 1 yuan a month, and Duan Yun also allocated housing to these key R&D members, such a high salary, I don’t think there is a second one in the country.” Liu Chuanzhi said.

"The salary is so high!?" Hearing Liu Chuanzhi's words, Ni Guangnan was startled.

Even if you are currently the chief engineer of Lenovo Group, your monthly salary alone is about 3000 yuan, which is already an astonishingly high salary in China. However, compared with the technical backbone of Tianyin Group, it is obviously not enough. There was a big difference, and the other party gave the house a room allocation, which seemed unimaginable to Ni Guangnan.

"Old Ni, don't you think you've also moved your mind and want to go to their Tianyin Group?" Liu Chuanzhi said in a teasing tone.

"How is it possible?" Ni Guangnan laughed when he heard the words, and continued: "I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. Lenovo was founded by the two of us together. I have always regarded this company as my own child. You Asking me to throw away my own child and serve as someone else's foil, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible for me to do."

"Actually, you don't have to envy them. In the future, Lenovo Group will develop well. An annual salary of one million is not a big deal. Sometimes people have to look farther. After all, you are also the chief engineer of our Lenovo Group. I won't treat anyone badly. I may have treated you badly," Liu Chuanzhi said.

This visit to Tianyin Group gave Liu Chuanzhi a deep sense of crisis.

As the saying goes, peers are enemies. Although Tianyi Group does not produce such products and does not have any direct competition with Lenovo, for technology companies, talent reserves are very important. Liu Chuanzhi gave himself a few years ago When the technicians were paid 400 yuan in salary, they proudly declared in the capital that Lenovo gave the highest treatment to technical talents. However, when he arrived at Tianyin Group, he discovered that Tianyin Group not only has strong strength, but also recruits talents. They are indeed willing to spend money. Even ordinary technicians have a monthly salary of 1000 to several thousand yuan. Project leaders like Huang Lingyi earn tens of thousands of yuan a month. This kind of income is simply staggeringly high.

In fact, there are not many senior computer talents in China. Facing Tianyin Group, Lenovo Group has no salary advantage. Over time, in terms of competition between the company and the company's technical talents, Lenovo may never be able to surpass Tianyin, and some even get poached. Danger.

"By the way, what do you think about Duan Yun wanting to take a stake in our company today?" Ni Guangnan glanced at Liu Chuanzhi, remembering to say: "I feel that the realization of Lenovo's technology has always been a big problem. Tianyin Group has a complete sales and after-sales network. , and also has the ability to quickly transform technology into products, if you can accept their conditions for taking shares and reach a cooperation with Tianyin Group, I think it will be very beneficial to the future development of our Lenovo Group."

"Then you think we can let Tianyin Group take a stake?" Liu Chuanzhi asked.

"You still need to make up your mind on this matter. I can only make a suggestion. Now Tianyin Group has strong technical strength, and technical cooperation with them will help our company's development." Ni Guangnan thought for a while, then continued Said: "In addition, I am more in favor of Duan Yun's proposal to cooperate in the development of domestic computer brands. The current domestic computers in our country are only the Great Wall, and the core components of the CPU they use are all imported from abroad, and most of the profits are made by foreign companies. People have made money, we are still a big country with a population of 10 billion, and it is imperative to develop the domestic computer industry..."

"The Tianyin Group is very strong in China, I admit that." Liu Chuanzhi nodded, and continued: "However, based on the foundation of our country's microelectronics industry, it is very difficult to make a computer brand with international competitiveness. Difficult, or impossible at all!"

"Huh?" Hearing what Liu Chuanzhi said, Ni Guangnan was taken aback for a moment.

"Duan Yun is indeed a very outstanding young entrepreneur in our country, but Tianyin Group wants to develop domestic computers and compete with the Americans in the PC market. You have been acting as an agent for IBM computers for several years. You should also know how strong the American technology is. They have gathered the world's top talents to invest in the PC computer industry. Tianyin Group is very powerful in China, but Europe and the United States Compared with Japan and other multinational giants, they are not one at all..."

"Then, old Liu, your opinion is..."

"I don't think we need to cooperate with Tianyin Group. This kind of thing is extremely risky. You also heard Duan Yun say during the dinner that he spent a total of 6 million US dollars to build this chip factory. But if you want to make a PC computer with advanced performance and leading the world, it may not be enough to spend 000 times the money. If he does this, he will play himself to death." Liu Chuanzhi said with a frown.

"But I think that cooperating with Tianyin Group will be of great benefit to Lenovo..." Ni Guangnan said.

"Cooperation, only companies with comparable strength can have truly fair cooperation, but the strength of Tianyin Group is too strong..." Liu Chuanzhi shook his head lightly, and continued: "In the business world, there is no such thing as a company with disparity in strength. In cooperation, some are just big fish eating small fish. Didn’t you hear what he said? In addition to buying shares, all the spare parts of the computers we develop must be produced by Tianyin Group, which means the future development of our group The lifeblood is in the hands of the Tianyin Group. To put it bluntly, if they want us to live, we can live, and if they want us to die, we must die. If people want to kill us, we will be fish and meat, and our Lenovo company will be completely annexed sooner or later! "

"No way? I feel that Duan Yun is quite sincere. From the conversation at the wine table just now, I can tell that he really wants to help our company create a domestic computer brand..." Ni Guangnan said.

"I've said it all. The Tianyin Group does seem to have strength, but their company's technical capabilities are definitely not as good as those of the Americans. We just need to do a good job as an agent of IBM computers. With the technical advantages of the Americans, the domestic Sooner or later, the computer market will be dominated by us alone, and there is no need to cooperate with Tianyin Group." When he said this, a look of disdain flashed across Liu Chuanzhi's face, and he continued: "To build a domestic computer brand with world-leading technology, Duan Yun's tone was serious, but it was destined to be a joke..."
