Great country technology, I have a system where hard work pays off!

"Huh?"

Seeing the girl's sudden tears, Gao Nian was momentarily flustered.

He didn't know why the girl suddenly cried. Was it tears of joy? But it didn't seem like it.

Panicked, Gao Nian hurriedly tried to pull out a tissue from his body, but how could a big man like him carry tissues with him?

So, in a flurry, Gao Nian finally remembered that there were tissues in the drawer. He immediately pulled out the drawer, took out the tissues, and handed them over, appearing quite flustered overall.

"Puchi."

Looking at Gao Nian's clumsy movements, Bai Ling'er finally couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle.

That smile was so pure, so lovely, that Gao Nian's heart rate suddenly increased several times.

Why did God favor this girl so much?

Not only was she good-looking, but when she smiled, she was like an angel, making people want to hug her.

"Thank you."

After the girl finished laughing, she thanked him in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

Hearing this gentle and weak thank you, Gao Nian felt as if he was in heaven, surrounded by the fragrance of flowers and plants.

However, the girl's next words quickly made Gao Nian laugh dumbly.

"Not me, it's us!"

"Yes, it's us!"

Gao Nian nodded lightly as he spoke.

This comic was indeed the result of his and Bai Ling'er's efforts. From the initial rough outline to the detailed arrangement of each plot, Gao Nian had participated in it all.

"Ling'er, are you going to publish it in a comic weekly next, or release a single volume directly?"

Gao Nian asked the girl.

Generally speaking, a comic would first be published in a serialized weekly or monthly magazine. When enough content for a single volume was collected, it would then be made into a single volume for sale.

However, they were in China after all. The comic market in China was very special because pirated comics from the island nation had massively invaded the Chinese comic market.

This directly destroyed the fragile domestic comic industry, causing it to collapse one after another. Currently, the best performing one was Zhiyin Comics.

Although it was only established last year in 2006, it was positioned for teenagers, which was completely different from the current all-ages "Comic Party" and "China Cartoon."

Therefore, Zhiyin Comics officially rose in just a few years, with monthly circulation once reaching third in the world.

But unfortunately, due to the rise of smartphones, people preferred to watch on their phones rather than buy a comic magazine.

At that time, Zhiyin Comics failed to change itself in time, and eventually it gradually declined with the development of the times.

Although they did not go bankrupt, their performance deteriorated year by year, and the number of readers became less and less.

"You decide."

The girl said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, her ink-like eyes quietly looking at Gao Nian.

"Is that so?"

Gao Nian put his hand on his chin and then said:

"Let's accumulate more manuscripts first, and then directly publish a single volume in the island nation.

Let's enter the island nation market first. After achieving amazing sales, we'll transfer back to China. By then, we'll use the money earned in the island nation market to acquire Zhiyin Comic Magazine or establish our own comic magazine."

Speaking of this, Gao Nian thought of a sentence and then said with a smile:

"It's impossible to work for others. There's no future in working for others."

"Yeah."

The girl nodded lightly, her clear eyes full of trust in Gao Nian.

Seeing this, Gao Nian naturally felt a warmth in his heart. Then, he continued to chat with Bai Ling'er about the upcoming plot.

However, a phone call soon interrupted Gao Nian's actions because the call came from Gao Peng's emergency call.

......

Yueguang City, headquarters of Geek Computer.

"Gao Peng, introduce the situation."

"Yes."

Gao Peng responded, then scanned the people present before saying:

"A few hours ago, Shenzhou Computer Company released three series of seven computers in total.

The configurations of these three series of seven computers are very similar to ours. It is obvious that they are plagiarizing our configuration style.

However, the price has undergone earth-shattering changes compared to the previous desktop computer prices of Shenzhou Computer Company."

Speaking of this, Gao Peng lightly clicked the remote control in his hand, and then the appearance of three computers appeared on the projection screen.

The appearance of these three computers was surprisingly similar to the appearance of Botong Computer at the beginning. Obviously, they had purchased Botong Computer's appearance patent.

"Shameless!"

"They actually copied our design style like Botong Computer!"

"It seems that Shenzhou Computer has found Botong Computer and bought their patent."

"What is the price?"… …

The people present first cursed, then looked at Gao Peng worriedly.

Seeing this, Gao Peng once again gently clicked the remote control in his hand, and then the detailed configuration and price of each computer appeared on the projection screen.

When the people in the conference room saw the price, they immediately cursed angrily.

"Shameless!"

"This is really too despicable!"

"They actually lowered the price to such an extent. Are they trying to smash the market?"

"This pricing is really too cheating."

"Damn it, it's so cheap. How can we win next?"… …

At this time, the price displayed above was basically the same as the price of Geek Computer. The difference between the two did not exceed 50 yuan.

It can be said that the price of the new series of desktop computers launched by Shenzhou Computer this time is really quite attractive. It can be called enough to make countless consumers crazy and put Geek Computer Company under pressure to go bankrupt.

After all, Geek Computer Company is just a small company, a small brand. Although the current direct stores and franchise stores have reached more than 500.

But in the eyes of consumers, it is still a small company, a small miscellaneous brand. When consumers have a choice, they will definitely give priority to products from big brands.

Therefore, the actions of Shenzhou Computer Company this time have really cornered Geek Computer Company!

So that Geek Computer Company can no longer use the advantages of price difference and high cost performance to obtain huge competitive advantages.

The next market will compete on brand competitiveness, quality control, marketing team size, marketing capabilities, marketing strategies, and so on.

In this new competitive model, Geek Computer Company is obviously at a disadvantage.

After all, the brand competitiveness and marketing team of Geek Computer are really not comparable to Shenzhou Computer.

"Is my dream of Chinese chips and domestic systems going to be shattered?"

Ni Guangnan showed a helpless expression.

It had only been a few days since he joined Geek Computer, but Geek Computer had encountered such a huge crisis. This made Ni Guangnan wonder whether he could achieve his dream.

"Calm down!"

Looking at the riotous company executives, Gao Nian continued after their eyes focused on him:

"We are not without the power to fight!"

Speaking of this, Gao Nian paused for a moment and then continued:

"In terms of brand competitiveness, ten Geek Computers combined are indeed not enough for Shenzhou Computer to fight.

But don't forget that the essence of a brand is long-term publicity, which ultimately leads to a phenomenon of consumer trust.

Understanding the essence, we can improve our brand competitiveness, so that we can cross the time difference of several years and quickly surpass Shenzhou Computer in brand competitiveness."

Hearing Gao Nian's words, Li Junwei shook his head slightly and said:

"Shenzhou Computer is the second largest computer manufacturer in China. It may be difficult for us to surpass Shenzhou Computer in brand power in a short period of time."

Hearing Li Jun's words, the other people present, including Ni Guangnan, couldn't help but nod their heads in agreement.
