When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student
Chapter 454 Lei Bushi’s Choice
Xiaomi has been dominating the Internet since the beginning of the year.
Because they followed Wang Donglai's advice and released this year's new mobile phone ahead of schedule, coupled with the various powerful functions installed on the phone, Xiaomi sold out instantly.
Online tickets need to be snapped up and the spots are sold out.
Offline, you even need to pay extra to get a new phone.
In the past, many users were dissatisfied with such situations, and they angrily accused Xiaomi of playing tricks on them online, and they did not dare to start production.
In fact, Lei Jun also has a hard time explaining this point.
It's not that he wanted to control production deliberately, but the smartphone, as the crystallization of modern scientific and technological wisdom, requires too many parts. Xiaomi started late, so it is at a disadvantage both in terms of technical reserves and when facing suppliers.
As for the former, I guess not many people would not understand.
But many people will not understand the latter.
Xmi focuses on cost-effectiveness and provides the most favorable configuration at the lowest price.
And Lei Jun also made a bold decision.
That is to control the profit of X meters to about 5%.
In this way, Xmi naturally stood out, but it also brought a lot of problems.
The profit margin is low, so people dare not stock up on goods for fear that the products will become unsalable and they will lose all their money.
Components are often selected that are relatively scarce at the same time, resulting in insufficient production.
The biggest reason is that Xmi has suppressed its profit margin to an extremely low level, which also results in the profits of Xmi's suppliers being limited. Compared with other major mobile phone manufacturers, Xmi has become completely uneconomical, and naturally the orders for Xmi mobile phones will be put on the back burner, and production and supply will not be given priority.
In addition to these reasons, there is another reason, that is, Xiaomi did not open up channels, transferring the pressure of payment for goods to third-party shopping malls, which put great financial pressure on it.
These reasons have always existed objectively within Xmi Company.
However, faced with these reasons, there is no good solution. We can only slowly build word of mouth, actively build channel networks, etc.
Waiting for the day when word of mouth ferments to a certain extent and the offensive and defensive situation changes.
At that time, it was Xmi's turnaround.
only.
Lei Jun's plan of sleeping on straw and eating bitter food was finally broken by Wang Donglai.
Relying on his trust in Wang Donglai, Lei Jun advanced the release of the new mobile phone.
At the same time, production was also expanded ahead of schedule.
Doing so means that Xmi is fighting a last-ditch battle.
But after paying so much, it would be a loss for Xiaomi even if the sales of the new product only increase slightly.
Only when a new product becomes extremely popular can it be considered a success.
With such a bold gambler's mentality, Lei Jun won the bet.
Since the new product was launched, the past few months have been full of news about Xiaomi phones selling like hot cakes.
The previously stockpiled production was also released as soon as possible.
Although it did not meet everyone's needs immediately, it greatly alleviated users' dissatisfaction.
As for the people saying online that Xiaomi phones are playing tricks, they are mostly just joking.
Since I completely trusted Wang Donglai this time, I gained so much.
Now, another opportunity has arisen, and Lei Jun will naturally not hesitate.
Of course, Lei Jun would not tell the reason why he did this.
Therefore, the people present looked at Lei Jun in confusion, and then looked at Wang Donglai on the stage.
at last.
"Boss Lei, this is 500 million yuan. You just use it to make friends. How generous of you!"
Although the person who spoke controlled his tone, everyone could hear the meaning.
next second.
There was a quiet laugh in the conference center.
Obviously, many people present did not think that Lei Jun did this out of his trust in Wang Donglai or Galaxy Technology.
In the minds of many people, Wang Donglai and Lei Jun have been regarded as shills at this moment.
However, just as the laughter rang out, Wang Donglai, who was standing on the stage, suddenly spoke.
"It seems that some people do not recognize that my friend is worth 500 million."
"I regret this."
"As I said earlier, Galaxy Technology is ready to break the technological lead of the West by conquering the core field of semiconductors, thereby gaining a share of the huge semiconductor market."
"Five hundred million is both a stepping stone and a screening tool."
"Being willing to give out 500 million yuan shows your trust in me. Being able to give out 500 million yuan also proves your own strength."
Wang Donglai said these words with a calm and natural expression.
As these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene.
After all, no one expected Wang Donglai to speak like this and be so impolite.
However, just when someone was about to speak out to express his dissatisfaction, Wang Donglai's voice rang out again.
"The topic of today's meeting is this matter."
"If any of you have any ideas, you can contact me later. If you think I'm just daydreaming, that's fine too."
“Finally, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you. It is a great honor for me to be able to attend this meeting.”
After saying this, Wang Donglai turned around and walked off the stage without hesitation.
The business elites in the audience looked at each other, and it took a long time before they reacted.
For a moment, everyone labeled Wang Donglai as arrogant.
soon.
Wang Donglai, the organizer, has already announced the end of the meeting, so naturally, others will not stay here.
He took out 500 million yuan to make friends without signing any contract agreement.
Once the research results are obtained, you will be the first batch of customers to enjoy the most preferential treatment.
This is clearly looking for someone to take advantage of.
All those who were invited by Wang Donglai are business elites with certain achievements, so they will naturally see through this.
It was precisely because they saw through it that they did not believe Wang Donglai at all.
Such scams are common in the business world.
"I didn't expect this genius to have such an idea. It's really incredible!"
"In my opinion, this guy is probably too arrogant. He really thinks that he can go after the lithography machine just because he has developed an advanced packaging design. He doesn't think about how big the difference in technical difficulty is between the two."
"He is indeed inflated. He not only wants to get 500 million yuan for free to develop lithography machines, but also wants to form a domestic mobile phone alliance in China and use domestic chips. I really don't know whether to describe him as ridiculous or stupid."
"Academician Wang may not be what everyone thinks. After all, he is a mathematical genius recognized by the whole world. Maybe it is really possible."
"A math genius is just someone who has solved a few math problems. It's really impressive, but what else is there besides being impressive?"
"This world is materialistic, not idealistic. The proof that he has solved a difficult mathematical problem only shows that he has a talent for mathematics, but this talent cannot allow him to directly break the laws of matter and create a lithography machine out of thin air." "I think Academician Wang made a great choice. It is normal to fail in science and academic research, right? If you don't experiment 50, 60, 70, 80 or 90 times, you can't talk about gaining anything or gaining experience. You always have to buy equipment for experiments, and everyone knows the difference between domestic and imported equipment. This is a legitimate way to make money...hahaha..."
Everyone started discussing it one by one.
There was no sign of trust in Wang Donglai or in Galaxy Technology's ability to develop technologies related to lithography machines in his words.
But some people noticed that the real big manufacturers remained very silent.
At the same time, the heads of two companies have disappeared.
These two are...
……
"Boss Lei, aren't you worried that these 500 million will be wasted?"
Wang Donglai asked with a hint of curiosity.
At that time, he was quite surprised to see Lei Jun on the stage actively expressing his willingness to invest.
After all, if he were in the audience, he might not agree to the conditions he put forward.
However, Lei Jun did not hesitate and expressed his willingness to support on the spot.
This level of support is indeed huge.
So, Wang Donglai couldn't suppress his doubts at this time and asked out loud.
As if he had anticipated Wang Donglai's question, Lei Bushi said with a smile, "I guessed that Academician Wang might ask this question. I thought about it for a while and came up with two answers."
"One answer is that he has great trust in Academician Wang and thinks that whatever Wang Donglai does will be successful, so Xmi dares to be so bold."
"One answer is that Xmi has never lacked the spirit of progress. Academician Wang has already proven his talent in semiconductors. He was able to develop a set of advanced packaging design solutions before, so it may not be impossible for him to make progress in the field of lithography machines."
"Five hundred million is not a small amount, but compared to Academician Wang himself, it seems insignificant."
“At the end of the day, we don’t believe in the project, we believe in the people.”
"I think Academician Wang is worth my investment of 500 million yuan to make a friend!"
Although Lei Bushi said this with a smile, his tone was extremely serious.
Wang Donglai could hear it clearly, and his eyes moved. He looked at Lei Bushi and said with a smile: "I have always heard that if Mr. Lei invests, he will only invest in people he is familiar with. It seems that this is not groundless!"
“Hahaha, that’s true.”
"I have always held the view that if you want to know whether a startup can make a profit and go further, you should not only analyze the market prospects, but also look at the technology and philosophy of the startup, and most importantly, the founder."
“Among these reasons, I think the personal ability of the founder is the most important. The ability of the founder determines the upper limit of a company to a certain extent. In fact, the investment company is the investor.”
"Speaking of this, I have to say that I regret it. If I had met Academician Wang earlier, I believe I would definitely..."
Before Lei Bushi finished speaking, Wang Donglai said, "I will definitely refuse!"
"..."
Lei Jun wanted to refute something, but he swallowed the words back.
indeed.
What Wang Dong said was not wrong.
If it happened again, Lei Jun would still reject Wang Donglai.
Before this, Lei Jun was ridiculed by netizens for having rejected Jack Ma.
Especially when Jack Ma's wealth continued to grow.
At the same time, this also created a little rift between Jack Ma and Lei Jun.
Seeing a hint of speechlessness and depression on Lei Bushi's face, Wang Donglai immediately changed the subject and said, "Thanks to Mr. Lei for his kindness. No matter what the reason is, Mr. Lei can come up with 500 million, which is enough."
"Believe me, these 500 million won't let you down."
Lei Bushi's eyes moved, and he asked, "Oh, could it be that Academician Wang has made a breakthrough?"
Wang Donglai just smiled and didn't say much.
One of them is the founder of Galaxy Technology, and the other is the founder of Xmi.
They all have control over their own companies, so many things can be decided by one person.
So, the two of them just had a brief chat and decided on a huge sum of 500 million yuan.
Next, all that’s left is for the staff of both sides to connect with each other.
After seeing Lei Jun off, Wang Donglai didn't have time to say anything.
"Academician Wang, I heard that your company has made new breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence?"
Yu Dazui looked curious, but spoke with a very certain tone.
Hearing what Yu Dazui said, Wang Donglai was only slightly stunned, then he reacted and asked back, "Boss Yu, where did you get this information from?"
"Academician Wang didn't refute it, so it seems to be true. Heroes are born young!"
"In fact, I know about this matter. It was also leaked by Academician Wang himself during the aerospace expert review. However, I am a cautious and courageous person, so I thought of asking him in person."
Yu Dazui naturally sensed the sharpness in Wang Donglai's question, so he quickly spoke up to explain.
"Ah."
"Mr. Yu came to see me, you must want to ask more than just this question, right?"
Wang Donglai spoke in a seemingly casual tone, but with a very certain tone.
"Boss Wang, are you serious about what you just said on the stage?"
Yu Dazui's expression also turned serious and he asked.
"Of course!" Wang Donglai nodded in acknowledgement.
"Researching lithography machines is not a simple matter. Can I ask how much research funding and time your company is prepared to invest in this research?"
"Mr. Wang, have you decided to research the stepper projection lithography machine? Or the scanning projection lithography machine?"
"Which UV light source should I choose for the exposure system?"
"And what do you think of the alignment system, Mr. Wang?"
As soon as Yu Dazui opened his mouth, he asked a series of questions.
Acted extremely professionally.
Facing Yu Dazui's slightly aggressive questions, Wang Donglai remained calm, smiled gently, and then said, "Mr. Yu, I do have some thoughts on the issues you raised."
"But these things are business secrets, so I can't talk about them directly."
Yu Dazui was not surprised, nor did he show any disappointment. Instead, he continued naturally, "Boss Wang, our two companies are actually quite similar to some extent."
“Distribute the money to employees, improve their enthusiasm, constantly innovate, increase the importance of research and development, increase investment, achieve technological breakthroughs, and re-produce.”
“So, I think we are all the same in our pursuit of technology.”
"If Mr. Wang is really sure that he can break through the limitations of the lithography machine, let alone 500 million, even if it is 5 billion, we are willing to give it."
After hearing what Yu Dazui said, Wang Donglai didn't react much.
He did not continue talking about what Yu Dazui said, but suddenly brought up something.
Suddenly, Yu Dazui's expression changed and his eyes became sharp.
And this matter is exactly... (End of this chapter)
