Chapter 1466 Important Layout
On New Year's Day in 1990, Duan Yun went to Hong Kong and came to his branch in Hong Kong.

And just half a month ago, the news from the Hong Kong branch group said that they had completed the research and development of a new type of computer, and added the USB function to this computer, and passed the test in an all-round way.

After getting the news, Duan Yun immediately rushed to Hong Kong to witness this historic moment of the company with his own eyes.

This time, Duan Yun asked the Hong Kong branch to set up a computer with a relatively high starting point. It uses the latest 80486 chip produced by Intel. This chip can be said to be the most advanced CPU in the world. CPU.

In China at that time, the most advanced domestic computer was the domestic 386 computer launched by Great Wall the year before last, and Duan Yun's new computer was an entire generation more advanced than Great Wall Computer.

Although this computer is very advanced, in fact, most of the core components of the newly developed computer are purchased from abroad, and the technology of some components is also produced through reverse imitation of foreign products, and the technical content is not high.

The components developed by Telling Group Hong Kong Branch mainly include computer motherboards, NAND flash memory chips produced by Telling Group, and USB sockets.

However, from the beginning, Duan Yun developed this kind of computer, and he didn't expect him to sell it immediately. He just needed to use this product to make a transition first, to train the R&D team, and at the same time to carry his own company's technology on it to become Tianyin Group. The platform for carrying new product technology also requires this kind of computer to carry out an international market feedback.

Duan Yun didn't even think about selling this new computer in the domestic market at all, because at this time, domestic production and manufacturing industries all need production licenses, and computer licenses can only be obtained by enterprises affiliated to certain ministries and commissions. It is very difficult for an enterprise to obtain a computer license. Before that, only Great Wall Computer obtained the production license from the national ministries and commissions. It is precisely because of this that Great Wall Computer has been able to maintain a thriving domestic market and occupy the dominance of domestic computers in recent years. .

Because of the license system, some domestic foreign computer agency companies without production qualifications all get their goods from "second-hand dealers" in Hong Kong, so they are divided by more than 15% of the profits. Transitioning through Hong Kong, in order to save the 15% profit, Lenovo Group finally established a Hong Kong Lenovo branch to represent computers after accumulating considerable capital.

Speaking of which, although Lenovo Group is inextricably linked with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, it does not have such qualifications. It is precisely because of this that Liu Chuanzhi finally decided to set up a company in Hong Kong and break through the line by "curve to save the country".

At that time, Liu Chuanzhi proposed a trilogy of overseas strategies. The first step is to establish a trading company overseas to accumulate funds, understand the market and seek a breakthrough in development. The second step is to establish a company including R&D centers, production bases and The international marketing network, and the research, production and sales of multinational companies integrating technology, industry and trade, the third step is to form economies of scale and strive to rank among the computer industries of developed countries.

In fact, Duan Yun also referred to Lenovo's practice and set up a research and development center in Hong Kong. However, Duan Yun is to obtain international advanced technology and talents through the platform of Hong Kong. Only when the national team cancels the computer industry approval system and the time is ripe Under such circumstances, Duan Yun will start to mass-produce and sell computers in China. Before that, he needs to further improve the technology and make all aspects of the layout in advance.

That night, Duan Yun, Li Guosheng, and Zhao Xuewu had dinner at a restaurant in Hong Kong to celebrate the successful development of Tianyin Group's first computer.

The meeting with Li Guosheng and Zhao Xuewu this time made Duan Yun feel a little emotional. During the more than a year in Hong Kong, I felt that both Li Guosheng and Zhao Xuewu were getting old very quickly. He also couldn’t straighten up a little bit. The reading glasses were changed from 150 degrees to 200 degrees. Due to working with young technicians for a long time, Zhao Xuewu’s waist couldn’t be straightened up, which made Duan Yun feel a little sad when he saw it.

Both Zhao Xuewu and Li Guosheng were core members of Duan Yun when he was in charge of the world in his early years. Today, Today Music Group has developed into the largest private enterprise in China, but these two old employees are still leading the way, maintaining high-intensity work every day , While making continuous contributions to the company, it also set a good example for new employees.

"Master Li, Master Zhao, you two have worked hard." After the red wine was served, Duan Yun immediately stood up and filled their glasses with wine, and then said respectfully.

"It's nothing, we are also looking for something in his position. Manager Duan trusts us so much, and we can only do our best to repay it." Zhao Xuewu said at this time.

"After I came to Hong Kong, I felt that I had to learn too much. The social system and company management model here are very different from those in the mainland. Now I just read books to study when I have nothing to do, otherwise I will really be eliminated by society." Li Guosheng also said with some emotion at this time.

Now Zhao Xuewu and Li Guosheng can be said to be one of the employees with the highest salaries in Tianyin Group. Duan Yun now offers them an annual salary of 15 RMB a year, and a year-end bonus of 5 to 10. In Hong Kong, it can only be said that it is equivalent to the level of middle-level management of a large enterprise, but in the mainland, it is almost rare to get this annual salary. From this point of view, it is already higher than the wages of most Hong Kong people.

And such a high salary is also a lot of pressure for Li Guosheng and Zhao Xuewu. If they worked very hard in the mainland before, then coming to Hong Kong is simply fighting with their lives. Both of them lasted more than 12 hours, because they managed several R&D departments at the same time, so there were a lot of things to worry about. Fortunately, the two of them have adapted to this kind of life and completed all the tasks assigned to them by Duan Yun on time. From this point On the whole, Li Guosheng and Zhao Xuewu are worthy of such a high salary.

"The Hong Kong branch is of great strategic significance to our group company. In addition to setting up a research and development center for technology research and development, you will have to communicate and cooperate more with branches of other multinational technology companies in Hong Kong. Our group company will be very important in the future. One of our strategies is to strengthen international technical cooperation and strengthen foreign trade exports. The Hong Kong branch is an important starting point for the future layout of our group company. Therefore, if you have time, Master Li, you should learn more about international foreign trade and help the company One-step plan to prepare." Duan Yun said to Li Guosheng seriously.
