Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1798 Invisible Resistance
The strongest part of Tianyin brand computer is its memory, which is independently developed and produced by Tianyin. This kind of memory is developed on the basis of the technical framework of NAND flash memory chips, and its storage space is larger than that of mainstream computer memory in the world. Some, which means that he can provide computers with better speed and more powerful functions.

Duan Yun’s newly developed software system can completely customize the self-produced memory, making it more powerful than imported computers. This is a system developed by other computer companies, including Lenovo, relying on IBM computer hardware. Because the memory capacity is smaller than that of Tianyin Group, it is doomed that the upper limit of the new system developed by them is lower than that of Tianyin Computer.

Moreover, the localization of hardware has advantages in terms of security, especially for national government departments and key agencies, they are naturally more willing to choose computers with a high degree of localization, so that they will not be easily caught by foreign governments and enterprises. .

"By the way, you called me before and said you wanted to talk about the Volvo car project introduced this time. What's wrong?" Xu Shaoqiang glanced at Duan Yun, and then said: "Is the problem of foreign exchange still unresolved?" ?”

"It has been basically solved. I went to Shenyang before, and Mayor Wu of Shenyang received me personally. He said that the Liaoning Provincial Government Finance Department is willing to lend me 1.4 million U.S. dollars. I have already completed the loan procedures when I was in Shenyang. , so there is no need to worry about the issue of foreign exchange funds." Duan Yun said.

"That's really great..." Xu Shaoqiang nodded, and continued: "Actually, I have also discussed with the superiors during this period, and they are willing to provide a small amount of loans, but the amount is only 2 million US dollars..."

"I don't need the loan for the time being. I came to you today mainly to discuss with you whether we can include our newly introduced Volvo 940 sedan in the government's public vehicle procurement list." Duan Yun said.

"You want your car to be included in the government procurement list?"

"That's right, the situation is like this..." Duan Yun began to introduce to Xu Shaoqiang in detail the various performances and advantages of the Volvo 940 sedan, as well as the importance of obtaining the government procurement list.

Like computers, cars are also a luxury for ordinary people. The customers who buy them are mainly enterprises, institutions and government agencies. Few ordinary people can afford them. The reason why Audi was able to gain a firm foothold in China and became a Later generations became some of the highest-selling models in the mainland, which is inseparable from the government's purchase of him.

"It's interesting to hear you say that." After listening to Duan Yun's narration, Xu Shaoqiang nodded lightly, and then said: "But this matter is a bit difficult..."

"If there were no difficulties, I would not be able to find you." Duan Yun smiled, and then said: "Let's put it this way, anyway, Poly is also a shareholder of our group automobile company. The development pattern of Volvo cars in mainland China in the next few years or even ten years is very important. Look at the current Santana car. In fact, technically speaking, it is similar to Volvo 940, and even Volvo 940 has more advantages than it. Certain technical advantages, now that the Volvo 940 sedan is also made in China, the purchase price will be greatly reduced, so I think this matter is still very operable.”

"You are right. In fact, I also made this kind of car in my early years. The interior space of the car is good, and the power is also very good. Compared with the Santana car, it is indeed not bad at all..." Xu Shaoqiang pondered for a while, and then said: " I can only do my best on this matter, because although Poly is a central enterprise, we are not in charge of the disclosure of government procurement. We still need to negotiate with other department leaders, and at least we will have to wait for a while before there is a result..."

"It doesn't matter, I can afford to wait. Anyway, according to the plan, the first batch of domestic Volvo 1 sedans will be rolled off the production line at least early next year. You just need to give me a reply before then. If you need funds for public relations , you can tell me at any time, I will give you as much as you want." Duan Yun said.

"Your thinking is very dangerous!" Xu Shaoqiang gave Duan Yun a blank look, and then said, "Do you still want to bribe the leading cadres?"

"That was not what I meant……"

"Okay, there's no need to talk about this matter anymore. I will try my best to solve this matter, but I have to tell you clearly that this matter may not be successful. You must be mentally prepared." Xu Shaoqiang said seriously.

"I must be mentally prepared. If I can succeed, I can only continue to build cars." Duan Yun spread his hands, and then said: "To put it bluntly, I still have no doubts about the future sales of this imported sedan model." How sure, that's why I thought about the government procurement company."

"You are a businessman, and you are right to have this idea, but you should also know that the government only needs to follow certain logic and rules, and needs to integrate many complicated factors. Some things cannot be taken for granted. You have been dealing with the government for so many years. , should also be clear about this matter."

"I see."

"Then is there anything else?" Xu Shaoqiang glanced at his watch and said to Duan Yun.

"Can I treat Mr. Xu to dinner tonight?" Duan Yun said.

"I'm busy these days, let's go another day." Xu Shaoqiang declined Duan Yun politely, and said, "If you have any urgent matters, you can call me directly. I have other things to deal with now, so let's go first."

"President Xu, go slowly." Seeing Xu Shaoqiang get up, Duan Yun quickly stood up too.

The next moment, Duan Yun sent Xu Shaoqiang to the door of the hotel. He didn't turn around and rush back to the hotel until he got in the car and left.

Returning to the hotel, Duan Yun also fell into a short thought.

Although I have already entrusted my brother-in-law Wu Zhenglong and Xu Shaoqiang from Poly Company, the matter of getting Volvo into the government project procurement list still has a lot of variables. Just like Xu Shaoqiang once told him before, he will let him lead the research and development of domestic operations. Like the system project, it was eventually canceled because it could not resist internal opposition. It can be seen that if Duan Yun wants to obtain any benefits from the national government, he will face invisible internal resistance, and nothing can be easily successful.

Another thing is that so far, his VCD has never entered the US market. Although the domestic sales are booming, if the company cannot quickly enter the markets of developed countries such as Europe and the United States, it will have an impact on his future corporate globalization strategy. , because Duan Yun is in urgent need of foreign exchange now. In addition to the 1.4 million US dollars borrowed from Shenyang this time, he will need several hundred million US dollars in the next two to three years to introduce advanced foreign technical equipment and talents, so as to expand his computer and automobile industry.
