I was born again with 100 million

Chapter 547 Ushering in the stage of take-off!
The next day, Lin Xiao returned to Yanjing from Mingzhu.

This walk can be regarded as more than a week, so as soon as Lin Xiao came back, many people came to the door one after another to report on work.

Yang Guanbin and Qiao Lei came together. Seeing the two appearing together, Lin Xiao was also happy. He realized that there should be a breakthrough in the research and development of Eternal Technology.

Qiao Lei is different from Zhang Xiaolong. Zhang Xiaolong is only in charge of the research institute, and Zhang Zhidong is currently in charge of the technology of Eternal Network.

But for Qiao Lei, he is in charge of the research institute and the technology of Eternal Technology.

Of course, in terms of specific projects, it is still assigned to different people, but he still takes the lead.

"Boss Lin, look at this."

As soon as the two entered Lin Xiao's office, Qiao Lei took something larger than a USB flash drive and handed it to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao took a look, and suddenly felt moved, and asked, "Wireless network card?"

Qiao Lei nodded slightly, "We developed the hardware for this thing about a month ago. Mr. Yang led us to connect with China Mobile, and an agreement has been formally reached, and now the software program has also been completed."

"So this is a finished product?" Lin Xiao asked, pulling off the cover, and plugging it into his laptop.

"Yes, this is a finished product. We tested it for a few days, and the effect is not bad."

Qiao Lei replied at this time.

"Although it can't compare to the speed of plugging in the network cable, as long as the signal is good, normal web browsing, chatting, emails and the like can still be done."

While Qiao Lei was talking, Lin Xiao had already started to try it out, just as Qiao Lei said.

Due to the limitations of the current network signal transmission capability and transmission technology, it is naturally impossible to compare this wireless network card with a wired network.

For example, if you want to play games, watch videos, etc., it must be unsupportable.

However, it is possible to simply browse the web. Of course, the response speed will be slower.

"enough!"

Lin Xiao laughed at this time.

At present, the transmission speed of the entire network is there, and there is a gap, but the gap is not so large.

Lin Xiao has never thought of using wireless network cards to replace wired networks at this stage, but only as an emergency for those in need.

If such a function is to be positioned, what has been achieved so far is indeed enough.

Without unplugging the wireless network card, Lin Xiao turned to Qiao Lei and asked, "Is the signal transmission stable now?"

Qiao Lei said: "If it is fixed in a place with a relatively stable signal, our transmission is still relatively stable."

"However, if you move around, there may be some instability."

At this time, Yang Guanbin immediately took up the conversation: "Mr. Lin, I think it is very rare to be able to do this now. This means that our notebooks will truly realize wireless Internet access."

When he said this, Yang Guanbin's tone was still a little joyful.

Lin Xiao nodded with a smile. For him, who came from the era of mobile Internet in later generations, this is nothing.

But for Yang Guanbin and the others, it is really a big breakthrough to be able to surf the Internet "anytime, anywhere" with a computer, even though the words "anytime, anywhere" must be quoted.

"In this case, let's make all preparations for mass production." Lin Xiao said to Yang Guanbin.

"At that time, it will be released together with our laptop."

Qiao Lei immediately smiled and said, "That should only take two or three months."

"So fast?" Lin Xiao asked in surprise. At this time, it was only a little more than three months before everyone agreed to enter the field of laptop computers.

Qiao Lei didn't speak, took out another hard drive from his hand, handed it to Lin Xiao, and said:

"The hard disk of the notebook computer has been successfully developed based on the accumulation of previous technologies. Next, we need to do some stability and various performance tests."

As he said that, Qiao Lei laughed and said, "As for the others, it is mainly the assembly of parts from different manufacturers. As long as the hard disk we make ourselves is stable, we can produce samples of laptops in about a month. "

"Combined with post-testing and the like, I estimate that it will be up to three months before the product can be launched."

Lin Xiao did some calculations in his mind, and said, "That means, our laptops will be on sale around August at the earliest?"

Both Yang Guanbin and Qiao Lei nodded. This is exactly the time they had discussed before.

Lin Xiao then asked again, "When the time comes, we will use two computers together, right?"

The first batch of two computers to go online is the strategy set by Lin Xiao, Yang Guanbin and others.

A high-end business model, including a wireless network card, is actually prepared for this computer. The price will be more than 12000, and the high configuration will even reach 15000.

The other one is mainly cost-effective, and Lin Xiao's target price is around 8000 to 10000.

Nowadays, the price of notebook computers is generally frighteningly high. Lin Xiao remembers clearly that in the previous life, at the end of this year, the domestic notebook market will officially enter the era of less than [-] yuan.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, hopes that this era will be opened by ancient technology.

There are two types of computers, one guarantees profits, and the other hits sales. Lin Xiao hopes that his laptop will truly become a brand name from the moment it goes on the market.

Yang Guanbin answered immediately, "The two computers will go online at the same time."

"August, this time is not bad." Lin Xiao smiled.

"Although college students may not be the main buyers of laptops at present, if we can achieve less than [-] yuan, we will still have some purchasing power after all, and that is our target group."

If college students can afford a computer, they will probably be customers of Gpod. With the reputation accumulated by Gpod before Eternal Technology, the possibility of this group of people supporting Eternal Technology is very high.

"So we also hope to advance the time." Yang Guanbin took over the conversation, "We will try to have a publicity warm-up in early or mid-July, and then officially sell it at the end of July or early August."

Seeing that Yang Guanbin had also thought about it, Lin Xiao felt relieved.

In the past, even thinking about it, Yang Guanbin was in charge of the market, and since he came to Eternal Technology, he has been in charge of the market.

For the control of the market, Yang Guanbin's ability is very good.

However, Lin Xiao still reminded: "In terms of media exposure, we can maintain a certain frequency as much as possible."

Eternal Technology's high-profile announcement before entering the computer industry has aroused a certain amount of attention, and maintaining a certain degree of exposure can also maintain part of this attention.

Yang Guanbin said: "We have been working on this one. I heard from Mr. Ma that the company's portal website will be launched soon, and the frequency of exposure can be higher then."

"Now, three months have passed since we announced our entry into the computer industry, and the heat has actually dropped a bit."

Lin Xiao thought for a while after hearing this, and then said: "In fact, we can have a large-scale publicity now. The wireless network card is naturally kept secret, but we can develop the hard disk ourselves, which can actually be disclosed to the outside world."

"If we reveal to the outside world the hard drive equipped with Eternal Technology's own research and development, I believe the media will still be more interested."

After hearing this, Yang Guanbin immediately agreed, "That's true."

"Let's contact the media in the past two days to try to expose this news first and attract a wave of exposure."

After discussing the matter of the laptop, Yang Guanbinbin continued: "Mr. Lin, during this period of time we have investigated and analyzed the entire computer market, and the laptop market is indeed growing, but in terms of the overall scale, the real market is still in the desktop computer market." .”

"In 2000, Huaxia computer sales were about 717 million units, of which notebook computers accounted for less than 5%. Among the hundreds of billions of market, desktop computers accounted for the majority."

Lin Xiao nodded, this is normal, laptops are still too expensive for most people.

In 2000, laptops costing [-] or [-] yuan were not affordable by ordinary people.

Notebooks will really usher in rapid growth, in fact, after next year, or after notebooks really enter the [-] yuan.

In the future, the price of notebooks will continue to drop, and when you can buy a good notebook computer at around 5000, sales will usher in an explosive growth.

But Lin Xiao didn't speak at this time, but listened to Yang Guanbin continue:

"Although the competition for notebook computers is fierce, and the market is relatively mixed, it is undeniable that this market is indeed relatively large."

With that said, Yang Guanbin continued to say to Lin Xiao: "Boss Lin, so I suggest doing it with desktop computers. Compared with laptop computers, desktop computers have lower technical requirements.

If we launch it now, it can be launched together with notebook computers. I think what this market can bring to us should far exceed notebook computers. "

After Lin Xiao heard Yang Guanbin's words, he pondered slightly, and then quickly agreed.

This point, he did not think about it before. At that time, he only thought about whether to make a mobile phone or a notebook computer, and he was interested in the rapid growth of these two industries.

But it ignores the largest market now, desktop computers.

If you think about it more carefully, whether it is IBM and HP abroad, or Lenovo and TCL in China, the real support at this stage is actually desktop computers.

Since our company wants to enter the computer field, there is really no need to miss this big market for nothing.

Hearing Lin Xiao's promise, Yang Guanbin immediately said: "Then I'll arrange it right away, we only focus on assembling desktop computers at present, and at most add a hard disk to be our own, in this case, it will be done quickly. "

"Okay." Lin Xiao nodded. Eternal Science and Technology has sufficient funds, and in addition, it has recruited a lot of talents this year. It is really easy to do things if you have money and people.

Yang Guanbin felt that the other party should have enough confidence to complete the desktop computer project in about three months.

Moreover, Lin Xiao felt that since Yang Guanbin brought it up with him now, he might have been prepared for it long ago.

Without further talking about the computer project, Lin Xiao turned to Qiao Lei and asked, "Qiaobo, how is the chip project going?"

Lin Xiao is really concerned about this point. Huaxin Technology is about to go into production soon, and the production technology is also advanced.

If the chip design of the Eternal Group can keep up, then I can design the chip here, and then produce it by Huaxin Technology.

Calculated in this way, more than half of a road will be opened.

Hearing Lin Xiao's question, Qiao Lei immediately followed up and said, "The main control chip of the USB flash drive is progressing very smoothly, and I expect to be able to produce the finished product this month."

"If there is no problem with the subsequent tests and the like, it is expected to be officially put into production in July."

"The Gpod chip may be a little later, and it is expected to be by the end of this year."

Hearing Qiao Lei's words, Lin Xiao immediately beamed with joy.

July is good, Huaxin Technology will officially put into production in July, and the main control chip of your own U disk can be directly handed over to Huaxin Technology for production.

As for the Gpod's chip, it's not a problem if it's later.

As long as you take this step slowly, when you actually make a mobile phone, can you come up with a high-performance chip as soon as you make a move?
If mobile phone chips still rely on others, it is still difficult for me to really lead the era of smartphones.

If you can take out the mobile phone chip and add your own understanding of smartphones, it will be different!

At that time, Eternal Ancient Group will truly lead an era!
There are still a few years to go, Lin Xiao is still very confident.

The road has to be walked step by step, Lin Xiao quickly readjusted his thoughts to the present.

Judging from the current situation, in the second half of the year, my career will usher in another stage of take-off!

Huaxin Technology will be officially put into production, and the first step of chip manufacturing will really be taken!

The chip research and development of the U disk will be completed, and the chip design will officially start.

Laptop computers and desktop computers are on the market, and Eternal Technology will also officially enter the computer field to compete.

Just thinking about these things made Lin Xiao full of anticipation.

Of course, other areas are developing as well.

In the retail field, Guoguang Supermarket and Guoguang Wanjia will complete the initial layout in Jiangyou and Guangdong and Hai provinces in the second half of this year.

Baidu's development has entered a benign channel. According to Li Yanhong, Baidu officially started to realize profitability last month, and will become the second profitable Huaxia Internet company outside Eternal Network, but it has not been announced yet.

If this news is released to the outside world, I believe it will shock people in the industry again under the current Internet downturn.

Although Taobao has just started, in the second half of this year, it should be no problem to complete the layout of Yanjing. If it goes well, it can go out.

Of course, there is also the Eternal Network.

Just as Lin Xiao thought of this, Xiao Ma brought two people outside the office.

Yang Guanbin and Qiao Lei had also finished speaking, and when they saw Brother Xiao Ma bringing someone over, they immediately got up and left.

Xiao Ma nodded and smiled at Yang Guanbin and the two, and then led them into Lin Xiao's office.
