#326 - Chapter 326: Better to buy than to make? Full research and development started! Laptop comput
The contract has two parts.
Nine Heavens Electronics will provide the storage devices needed by Lenovo.
And use foreign channels to expand Nine Heavens Electronics' products in overseas sales markets.
Liu Zhi was dumbfounded.
It was clearly a win-win situation…
Why didn't they sign it?
"President Liu, this… I want to know why!"
He suppressed his anger: "You should know that Nine Heavens Electronics' overseas expansion requires a certain amount of time, and our Lenovo has a high reputation globally--this is beneficial to your company!"
"The boss doesn't agree, I can't help it." Liu Qing was also very helpless.
Whose company is Nine Heavens Electronics?
He has a share.
But his share is not on the same level as Hanteng Group.
Chen Hao is the absolute decision-maker!
Only then did Liu Zhi notice a handsome and dashing young man standing next to Liu Qing.
Could it be…
"Who is this?" he hurriedly asked.
"President Liu, I'm announcing something."
Chen Hao ignored him and instructed Liu Qing: "Starting today, all products of Nine Heavens Electronics are not allowed to be sold to Lenovo."
"Including lower-level distributors, anyone found supplying Lenovo will have their distribution rights revoked immediately!"
Liu Qing didn't understand.
He didn't need to understand, execution was enough: "Understood!"
"Why?!" Liu Zhi roared.
"I heard that President Liu has always believed that buying is better than building, I just want to see if your company can survive without products made in China." Chen Hao chuckled.
The ideology of buying being better than building is rampant, and it wasn't caused by one person.
But Liu Zhi can be said to have made 'great contributions'.
He is one of the core figures!
"But don't forget, computers are not just storage devices!"
"Without you, Lenovo can still survive!"
Storage devices include hard drives, memory, etc.
But the core components of a computer are far more than just these two.
For example, the CPU, which has the highest technical content.
For example, motherboards, graphics cards, etc.
At worst.
Lenovo will just have slightly inferior storage devices and use price wars to compete with other opponents.
Nine Heavens Electronics' business is limited to storage devices, not entire machines.
"We'll see." Chen Hao smiled faintly.
"We'll see!"
Liu Zhi flung his sleeves and left.
Suddenly!
Before he could leave, Chen Hao said indifferently: "President Liu, we will enter motherboard and graphics card R\u0026D later."
Liu Zhi paused.
Then he laughed loudly and left the reception room.
You say research and development, and we'll just do it?
A company that makes storage devices, does it really think it can be invincible in all fields?
Just wait for a joke!
"Chairman Chen, are you… serious?!" Liu Qing was excited.
"In fact."
Chen Hao shrugged: "It's already started."
What does that mean?
Liu Qing didn't recover for a moment.
The technical data given by Chairman Chen is only limited to storage, right?
"It should be soon…"
Chen Hao muttered to himself, then turned to instruct: "Remember! Our products must never be sold to Lenovo!"
"Understood, I'll see you out."
"No need."
Just then!
Chen Hao had just stepped out of the reception room when his phone rang: "Hello."
"Chairman Chen!"
It was Qiu Zhengfeng calling, his tone very excited: "The laptop… is a success!"
He is not responsible for the laptop project.
However, as the Technical Director of Chuangshiji, all projects of the R\u0026D department are ultimately under his jurisdiction.
He would be proud of any achievements made by any group.
"Good!"
Chen Hao grinned.
Turning his head, he looked at Liu Qing: "President Liu, come with me."
"Where to?" Liu Qing asked, puzzled.
"I'll show you something good."
"Okay!"
Liu Qing was overjoyed.
He vaguely felt that the phone call Chen Hao had just received was somewhat related to him.
…
Nine Heavens Electronics was acquired by Chen Hao.
It was not Chen Hao's initial company, and its headquarters were still in its previous location, some distance from Hanteng.
An hour later.
The Mercedes drove into Hanteng Capital's headquarters.
It stopped at the entrance.
As usual.
Two cigarettes were handed to the security guard, and they chatted casually for a few words.
"Chairman Chen, you're giving cigarettes to the security guard?" Liu Qing was very puzzled.
What was Chairman Chen's status?
This made him feel very incredible.
"They are my friends." Chen Hao smiled.
"Friends?"
"Just like you."
The car drove into the parking lot, Chen Hao smiled faintly: "When I make friends, I don't look at whether the other party has money or not, anyway, they don't have as much money as I do."
Liu Qing thought for a moment.
It seemed…
That was really the case.
Chen Dong smiled secretly in his heart: My relationship with the security guard is much better than with you.
These security guards are all Lu Qingshan's comrades-in-arms, who have received various favors from Chen Hao and can die for him!
Would Liu Qing risk his life for him?
Dream on!
The elevator went all the way up.
"Chairman Chen, aren't we going to Chuangshiji?" Liu Qing asked again.
This is the floor of Hanteng Capital's headquarters.
"I'm going to the general company's finance department to get some money."
"Oh…"
Liu Qing didn't think much about it.
Until.
He saw Xiang Yan and Shi Dali, plus the security guards called from the headquarters, several people carrying snakeskin bags, filled with money.
Is that what you call taking 'some' money?
…
Chuangshiji R\u0026D Department.
A group of people led by Qiu Zhengfeng were waiting with excited faces.
Here it comes!
Qiu Zhengfeng's eyes lit up: "Chairman Chen, quickly… this way!"
Liu Qing had seen Qiu Zhengfeng and knew that he was the Director of Chuangshiji, so he hurriedly greeted him: "Director Qiu, Chairman Chen asked me to come along…"
Qiu Zhengfeng didn't have time to chat with him, and led Chen Hao inside.
Walking to the table.
Liu Qing's last half of the sentence stopped abruptly.
Suddenly!
There was a laptop on the table.
Laptops had already been released.
But!
This one is different!
The clarity has been greatly improved.
The shell is made of an unknown material, black with a metallic luster, and its appearance crushes traditional laptops.
There is also the thickness.
Only a little over 2 cm!
You must know that the thinnest laptop on the market is more than 4 cm thick!
In addition, the display ratio has changed from the mainstream 4:3 to 16:9.
The widescreen brings a clear sensory upgrade!
"This is a laptop?!"
Liu Qing was stunned.
Damn it!
The best laptop on the market is also crushed into slag.
It's not a product of the same era!
Chen Hao immediately stepped forward to operate.
Performance test!
High integration and high appearance are not enough.
Unlike SP4 and LCD TVs.
The first two are new things, you have them but others don't, so you don't have to worry about the market.
Laptops already exist.
How to grab the market?
Thinner!
Lighter!
More beautiful!
But these are always attached, the core of the computer is performance.
More than ten minutes later, Chen Hao showed a smile: "The performance is improved by about 50% compared to the current mainstream laptops."
"Chairman Chen, I have lived up to my mission!"
Du Haiyang stepped forward excitedly.
He is the person in charge of the laptop project.
Before this.
Qiu Zhengfeng's team had a spurt of various new products—LCD TVs, LCD monitors, plasma TVs.
Wan Lei's communication team has also entered a new round of research and development.
What about him?
The laptop has not been completed!
Of course, the research and development difficulty of laptops is much higher than Qiu Zhengfeng and Wan Lei's projects.
The difficulty is high, and the time is longer.
But he was anxious!
Today, it was finally successfully developed, and ahead of schedule!
