Chapter 73 Boomerang

"Hanxi Dongling Hi-Tech Company!"

The BBC TV host said the name of Donglin Hi-Tech in a difficult-to-pronounce voice, "You may be a little unfamiliar with this company, but the technology industry will never be unfamiliar with this company!"

Just less than half a year ago, this Chinese company from Hanxi had just entered into a patent litigation battle with American Microsoft over the mouse patent issue, and the lawsuit ended at the expense of Microsoft's compensation and settlement. , becoming the first technology company to ask Microsoft to pay compensation in the past ten years!

Some technology industry experts believe that this lawsuit may have led to the biggest crisis in Microsoft's history at that time. It indirectly led to the formation of the "first anti-Microsoft alliance" by computer manufacturers, software companies, semiconductors and other computer industry-related companies. ", but Microsoft made concessions in time and avoided the crisis of being split up! "

After briefly introducing Tanglin Hi-tech, BBC TV continued to report, "This electronic pet machine is the second product launched by Tanglin Hi-tech. Since its release, it has been sold in Japan at an unimaginable speed. It has become popular among young people in , America, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangzi, Malaysia, Australia and other places, and it is evolving into a new trend and culture!

This kind of trend and culture caused by an electronic product has never happened before. Previous electronic entertainment products such as computers, game consoles, and Walkmans have never caused such popularity across regions, languages, and age groups.

The BBC will continue to report on the follow-up news about electronic pet machines. Reporters in Hong Kong will rush to Hanxi Province in the near future to conduct interviews with Tanglin Hi-Tech! "

Feng Miaoyu watched the news on TV and felt that her mind was at a loss for a while.

She has been in England for almost a year, and what she feels most is the arrogance in the bones of the so-called gentleman British people. They look down on the Americans and think that they are just a group of nouveau riche across the Atlantic. They also look down on the Gallic roosters and think that the Gallic roosters are roosters. Chicken is too lazy and sees Germany as a country bumpkin.

As for Asians, in the eyes of British people, there is nothing to comment on. The media will not report anything good and is full of contempt. In the eyes of British people, the country is still stuck at the same time as a hundred years ago...

As for the TV media, using a special feature to report on a company or a person is unprecedented, but now she has seen that the BBC TV station used a special feature to report on a domestic company. Although it did not praise Donglin Hi-Tech, it was A company from China maintains a basic level of respect without any disparagement. This is really rare in England and Europe!

For a time, Feng Miaoyu also became somewhat interested in Dongling Hi-Tech. Thousands of miles away, in the media in a foreign country, he saw reports about Tanglin Hi-Tech. Subconsciously, Feng Miaoyu felt that Tanglin Hi-Tech should be It is one of the best technology companies in the country. Otherwise, why would it be specially reported by the BBC? These days, foreign media are still quite influential in the eyes of many Chinese people, and are even regarded as so-called daring to report the truth...

Not only Feng Miaoyu, but also Chinese people studying in England, and viewers who can watch BBC TV, all have some impressions of Tanglin Hi-Tech and the electronic pet machine after this report.

The phone rang in the apartment. Feng Miaoyu got up from the sofa, picked up the phone, heard the voice on the phone, and shouted, "Sister!"

The two Feng sisters, Feng Miaoyu's sister Feng Miaoyu, worked as an editor at Yanjing Commercial Daily. Their mother passed away early. When Feng Miaoyu went out to do business, she was taken care of by Feng Miaoyu. It is not an exaggeration to say that an eldest sister is like a mother. Needless to say, there is no need to mention the relationship between sisters.

After talking to Feng Miaoyu for a few words on the phone, she remembered the news she had just seen on the TV, "Sister, have you heard of Tanglin Hi-Tech?!"

"Dongli Hi-tech?!"

When Feng Miaoyu heard Feng Miaoyu say this, she thought for a moment and remembered that since this year, she only thought that Feng Miaoyu was talking about Dongling Hi-Tech's lawsuit with Microsoft and her rejection of Stone Group's investment.

"I heard that this is a new technology company that has made a lot of noise this year, but why did you mention this company?!"

"BBC TV just made a special report on Tanglin Hi-Tech, and said that one of Tanglin Hi-Tech's products has been sold like crazy in Japan, America and Japan!"

"Silver Sable Mouse?!"

Hearing this, Feng Miaoyu also felt a little overwhelmed. As a media person, of course she had heard the name of the British BBC, but she had never heard of the Silver Sable mouse, which was sold out. The Silver Sable mouse was also sold in China. It's pretty good, but it's far from what it's like. The sales are crazy, even in China, let alone abroad.

"It's not a mouse, it's an electronic pet machine!" Feng Miaoyu said.

When she heard about this product, which she had never heard of before, as a media person, Feng Miaoyu instinctively felt that there might be a big news that she didn't know about.

"Take care of yourself in England, and call dad when you have time. The old man really misses you!" After telling Feng Miaoyu, Feng Miaoyu hung up the phone and started to get busy.

This is not the Internet era yet. Everyone is a self-media person. No matter what happens anywhere, it can be spread all over the world in an instant and make headlines in various countries.

Feng Miaoyu first found newspapers and media in Guangdong Province, which is close to the port city and will report more overseas news. In this regard, the conditions are indeed unique compared to the inland media.

After reading several newspapers, I finally saw a report about the electronic pet machine in one newspaper. It was reported that the electronic pet machine is the favorite electronic product of young men and women in Hong Kong. It has become a hot product. As long as the store stocks electronic pet machines, it can attract hundreds of people to queue up.

Other media and newspapers also have sporadic reports on electronic pet machines in Japan, Singapore and other places, but there is no word about Tanglin Hi-Tech in these reports.

This situation attracted Feng Miaoyu's interest more and more. He approached the editor-in-chief of the newspaper and wanted to contact the newspaper's overseas news partners. Although Yanjing Business News did not have overseas reporters, it could contact Hong Kong City, Japan, Singapore, New York, News media organizations in London and other places also have cooperative relationships, so it is not difficult to find out some information!

The next day, Feng Miaoyu, who had been up all night organizing information under dark circles, took another big sip of cold tea. She was not sleepy at the moment, but in high spirits. She felt that after this report was published, it would definitely cause a sensation in the whole country. Domestic industry and commerce.

For this report, she contacted a number of overseas media that cooperated with Yanjing Business News. Although the specific data is not accurate, it is roughly estimated how many electronic pet machines Dongling Hi-Tech has sold, how much revenue it has, and even includes the She sorted out the influence of Nippon Bandai Company and so on.

After reviewing it again, Feng Miaoyu walked into the editor-in-chief's office.

"The Oriental Magic Machine goes overseas to earn 60 million US dollars!"

As one of the oldest economic newspapers in China, Yanjing Business Daily has a large audience. In particular, it often publishes theoretical articles and comments in the newspaper, and invites celebrities in the economic industry to analyze certain industries, and sometimes even It reports policy changes in certain industries, etc., so it has attracted the attention of many municipal departments and companies, and has considerable influence in Yanjing and surrounding areas.

Many people who received the Yanjing Business News today were startled when they saw this headline. Their first feeling was that these well-known large companies in China have made some noise again.

But after opening it, what I saw was the name of Dongling Hi-Tech, and above it was Feng Miayu's report on the electronic pet machine.

"The electronic pet machine launched by Hanxi Dongling Hi-Tech has been on sale for less than two months, and its estimated sales have exceeded four million units. Based on the overseas selling price of the electronic pet machine, the total revenue has reached 60 million US dollars, becoming a Among the current private companies in China, it has the highest foreign exchange income. The electronic pet machine is also one of the most popular electronic products exported overseas in the history of domestic products!

Bandai Company, which sells electronic pet machines in Japan, has soared by more than 60% due to the sale of this product, making it the best-performing company in Japan's stock market this year. America R Us also has sales of this product. The stock price increased by more than 17%, reaching a new high in three years..."

When Yanjing Business News released this report, many people's first reaction was that they were confused and didn't believe it.

They have never heard of an electronic pet machine at all, and this also breaks their thinking. Generally, when domestic companies develop new products, they do not always sell them domestically first. If they cannot be sold domestically, they will then find a way to "lose money" to sell them. Overseas, yes, they sell at a loss. Nowadays, companies that export have never thought about making money overseas. They sell at a loss. Overseas food is cheaper than domestic. They rely on low prices to gain momentum. After earning foreign exchange, they rely on exports. Subsidies cover losses.

Something like Donglin Hi-Tech, which was not sold domestically but went directly to foreign countries and sold, earning so much foreign exchange, has never happened in China before. The first reaction of people who saw the news was, They all felt that the Yanjing Business Daily reported something wrong or that it was fake news.

At least Wang Tianan, the boss of Yanjing Tiancheng Trading Company, when he saw this newspaper, his first feeling was that he did not believe that the newspaper was true. Dongling High-tech had previously established a joint laboratory with Hanxi Jiaotong University and Pingyang University. , he also criticized Donglin Hi-Tech for losing money after having a little money. He didn’t know what his last name was, and he dared to imitate the labs of big foreign companies. It was just messing around. Domestic companies can only work for foreign companies at present. This is is his point of view.

But if this report is true, Wang Tiancheng felt his face getting hot when he thought of what he said in front of the media. He didn't believe that the boomerang would hit him so quickly.

"It can't be true!"

Wang Tianan gritted his teeth and said, ready to pick up the phone, find overseas partners to inquire about the situation, and then expose the lies of Yanjing Business News in the media. He has been engaged in foreign trade for so many years, how can he not know the virtues of domestic companies? !
