Chapter 1195 Will Die Miserably
"Oh, Mr. Liu, you are a rare visitor."

Su Chen looked enthusiastic, "This is Mr. Yang Yuanqing, the person in charge of Lenovo Microcomputer Division, right?"

Look at the enthusiastic face in front of you.

Liu Chuanzhi couldn't help feeling a little emotional. He was also preempted by this person when he wanted to buy out Hanka, and later had to take out 35% of the shares.

But it turned out that this person threw Wang Zha right away as soon as he came up, and he wanted to kill Lenovo directly.

So, he had to bring Yang Yuanqing to visit.

He wanted to let Su Chen raise his hands high.

Don't play things so badly.

Because Lenovo has abandoned the switch business, if the microcomputer business is hit hard again.

Then Lenovo can only return to the agent computer industry.

This was the result he didn't want to see, and he didn't want to accept.

At this time, the entry of computers into households is far from being invincible like color TVs.

After all, there are very few people who can use computers, usually limited to a very small number of people in the family, unlike television, which is inseparable from men, women and children.

More importantly, the income of most Chinese people is very low. The average annual salary of each worker in big cities is less than 4 yuan.

The cost of a computer alone is tens of thousands of yuan.

However, Pangu aliens only sell for 9999.

That means you can buy an alien computer for less than three months' salary.

It would also mean a market for home computers, where parents with children can bring computers into their homes simply by tightening their belts.

The microcomputer with such a simple operation method will also make more and more teachers, scientists, journalists, and writers willing to use computers to work at home.

According to this price, there is no association.

"Boss Su, on the very day the Pangu Alien series computers were sold, they successfully achieved a daily sales of 5000 units. Congratulations."

Liu Chuanzhi also congratulated with a smile on his face, and then pointed to Yang Yuanqing who was aside, "You are right, this is indeed Yang Yuanqing, the person in charge of our microcomputer business department."

Yang Yuanqing also greeted Su Chen: "Hello, Mr. Su, I have known you for a long time, and I am fortunate to meet you today."

Also in his early 30s.

Some people are so heavily in debt that they would rather die than live.

Some people have successful careers and have many wives and concubines.

Some people are high-spirited and fighting for the future.

"Hello." Su Chen shook hands with him, "Please sit down, both of you."

After the two sat down, the secretary came in to pour tea and water.

"I wonder what the two of you are here for?" Su Chen asked straight to the point.

After all, he is not very familiar with these two people.

Even if I have heard too many names of these two people, I have seen too many stories about them.

But now he doesn't interact much with these two people.

It can be said that everyone is not in the same circle.

After all, Su Chen spends most of his time in Hong Kong, and only rarely spends time in the capital.

Liu Chuanzhi didn't expect that the other party would be so direct and straightforward.

"Mr. Su, it's like this. This time, I really want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything." He said, "I think you should also know about Lenovo's revenue in recent years."

"Since the second half of 91, we have been surrounded by foreign manufacturers, and the performance of the microcomputer business has declined repeatedly.

The competition in the computer industry has reached a fever pitch. Most of the domestic microcomputers are defeated and seek cooperation with foreign companies. Only Lenovo is still biting the bullet. "

Su Chen nodded, "You have indeed been working hard, and I heard that the entire cost has been reduced to less than [-] yuan."

"Yes, originally we planned to launch our new product in a few days." Yanagawa Shi said, "But now..."

He didn't say the rest.

Because the rest of the words don't make any sense either.

Su Chen suddenly smiled, "So you are here today to let us raise the price, right?"

"I have this idea. After all, you are also a shareholder of Lenovo. Such a dismal performance will mean that many people will lose their jobs for Lenovo."

Liu Chuanzhi said carefully, "What's more, the Alien series computers are really excellent, and we are all domestic counterparts. I want Pangu to increase the price."

"Mr. Liu, you also know that Pangu Technology is not in my charge now, you should raise this issue with our President Zhou."

Su Chen said, "But since you have found me here, I will reply you for him. First, I will ask you a question."

"Please speak."

"What is the computer CPU model that Lenovo will sell this time?"

"386DX and 40."

"What about the system?"

"MS DOS5.0."

"Then you must have experienced our computer." Su Chen opened the notebook in front of him and said:

"I think, in front of the Alien's Chinese system and the constantly flashing prompt of MS DOS5.0-"C:", users know which brand to choose."

"And it is no exaggeration to say that neither the 386DX nor the 40 series CPU can compare with our Godson."

"Our microcomputer can not only process text, but also process sound, video and dynamic images, which you can't do at all."

"In this case, why don't you use our system and our chip?"

"What's more, you are just an assembly factory, and we rely on a huge ecosystem and microelectronic chips. No matter from which point of view, you have more prospects for development than you embrace Microsoft."

What Yan Chuanzhi and Yang Yuanqing said made their eyes meet.

Indeed, if you embrace Pangu's CPU and Kirin system, it will definitely not be much worse than Microsoft.

However, since both the Loongson and Kirin systems have just been developed, they are worried that it will affect Lenovo's reputation.

Su Chen added: "In addition to you, we also plan to appeal to more domestic microcomputer manufacturers to embrace our systems and chips, so as to block the attacks of foreign brands.

Now there are not a few days before the 10th, if you can replace our CPU and system, there is still time. "

"Will this cause incompatibility?" Yang Yuanqing asked.

Su Chen said seriously: "I'm not engaged in scientific research. I don't know about this situation, but I can tell you that if you don't change your strategy and replace the CPU and system, even if you lower the price, you will definitely die a miserable death."

This is a bit heavy to say.

But you are also very realistic.

So much so that when the two of them left, they looked very preoccupied.

After going back, the two carefully analyzed and decided to replace it with Pangu's CPU and system.

Because they have already kept the cost to a minimum, if they lowered it further, it would be a waste of money.

Lenovo's computer engineers are also full of passion for the temporary change of ideas, doing everything, and doing many things that have never been done before.

Even if all the microcomputers were pulled back to change the chips and systems, no one complained.

Because they have all experienced the fluency of aliens.

Knowing that if you don't change it yourself, this batch of microcomputers will undoubtedly die.

Zhou Wei didn't let them use it for free, and the system and chips were naturally sold at the price.

At the same time, engineers were sent to assist Lenovo.

In addition, he also publicly appealed in the newspaper, hoping that domestic microcomputer manufacturers will also invest in the Pangu ecosystem.

Pangu's actions did not attract the attention of those marketing experts in the computer market.

Computer agents in western countries don't pay attention to the advertisements of brands such as "Alien", "Lenovo" and "Great Wall" on TV. They have been immersed in their own victory for several years.

However, they all ignore one problem:
The desire for "foreign goods" prevails in the big cities along the southeast coast.

It is another matter in the vast areas of the Southwest, Northwest, Northeast and Central China, as well as more than 500 medium-sized cities and more than 3 small cities.

Zhou Wei was not immersed in the victory on the first day. Under Su Chen's order, he arranged a large number of salesmen to seize these markets.

With the efforts of all engineers, Lenovo's 386 microcomputers were all replaced.

5 month 10 day.

It is the day when Lenovo's "E series" is listed in large quantities.

Yang Yuanqing held his first press conference in Beijing since he presided over the general situation of microcomputers.

It is already a common situation in the computer market to launch a campaign in the form of a press conference.

For example, Zhou Wei before.

Although it is a sales exhibition, it is almost the same as a press conference.

For most journalists.

Lenovo's move has the air of a last stand.

When Yang Yuanqing announced Lenovo's configuration, everyone suddenly discovered that this company embraced Pangu's ecology.

However, the price as high as [-] still dissuades many people from buying.

For such an expensive thing, it is better to buy an alien.

Lenovo's first-day sales were not great.

Liu Chuanzhi was so anxious that he wanted to pluck out his hair.

After the press conference was over, I hurried to find the leader of the State Information Center, hoping that Lenovo would have priority in government procurement.

But he didn't expect to see a person he didn't want to see—Zhou Wei.

Zhou Wei enthusiastically shook hands with the leaders, greeted him again, and turned to leave.

Liu Chuanzhi secretly asked Zhou Wei's purpose with a familiar leader.

The leader hesitated again and again, and then whispered: "Pangu intends to assist in the construction of the national communication system..."

Yanagawa Zhiru was struck by lightning.

Damn, you guys are so desperate...
