"General Manager Feng, it's been a while since we sat down for a chat, right?" Liu Chuanzhi smiles and looks at Feng Yu.
Both of them had been busy in the past two years. Liu Chuanzhi was busy with Lenovo's expansion and expansion into the world. Feng Yu was busy with the financial market and started investing like crazy.
"That's right. It's been a while since we had a chat. But I am impressed by Lenovo's growth in the past two years. They are now the leader of Hua Xia's PC market. Not only their desktops are selling well, but their laptops are also selling better than those overseas brands. To be honest, this is much more successful than I expected. "
Maybe it was because of Feng Yu's guidance, or the importance of Lenovo, but in this life, Lenovo had grown much faster than Feng Yu's previous life.
Of course, Liu Chuanzhi and the rest of Lenovo's management team had contributed a lot.
"It's all thanks to you. Our optical drive is the cheapest in the world, and Microsoft's operating system is so cheap. Some of your ideas are also proven to be feasible. We might even increase our sales in China by more than 30% this year! "
More and more people are using PCs now, and some companies and institutions had started to promote using PCs for work. In Hua Xia, Lenovo's PC is the first choice.
"So many PCs? This is good news." Feng Yu's eyes brighten up. Lenovo's success will affect the other brands. But where did Liu Chuanzhi get his confidence from? Does Lenovo have a better model? Or did they get a big order from another company?
"There should be more." Liu Chuanzhi said and looked at Feng Yu.
Feng Yu was stunned. Why did he feel Liu Chuanzhi's eyes were filled with resentment?
"Huh? What happened?" Feng Yu asked curiously.
"A few days ago, an online game was launched, and it became popular in all the internet cafes. It's called Legend of Mir. Is it developed by your gaming company? "
"Yes. My company developed it, and NetEase is in charge of operating it in China. Didn't you buy Lenovo's servers? "
"This game is said to be very fun. Many people line up at the Internet Cafe, but they can't get a seat. Therefore, some internet cafe owners decided to expand their business, and some people also joined the internet cafe industry. I think this is a medium investment with quick returns and a low entry threshold. The returns can be expected. "
"This is a good thing. They need more computers. Isn't this more stimulating to our product sales?" Feng Yu said with a smile. It's a good thing. Why isn't Liu Chuanzhi happy?
"I thought so too, but now there are some computer cities all over the country. They sell computer accessories, software, office appliances, and so on. Originally, we also supported the emergence of these computer cities. This would allow us to increase our sales and after-sales service points. But in these computer cities, there are some who specialize in selling hardware. They have actually become our biggest competitors! "
When Feng Yu heard this, he understood. He was talking about the assembled computer!
Assembling a machine was the so-called assembling machine. You can tell a shop owner what kind of computer I want, and you can help me calculate the lowest price.
The advantage of assembling a machine was it can reduce the value of the brand, and the hardware can be matched according to the requirements. This will prevent the situation where the branded computers do not meet the requirements.
Branded computers have another advantage, and that is the after-sales service. However, the store would provide a warranty for those who came to the store to collect machines. In any case, there wouldn't be any problems during the warranty period.
Especially for these internet cafes, there will be at least a few dozen machines. Even if a machine is cheaper by 500 RMB, it will still cost tens of thousands of RMB.
Tens of thousands of RMB will be enough for the rent.
"I had told you that there will be such machines appearing in the future. Now you know what I mean, right? The added value of the brand is an advantage and also a burden. "Feng Yu laughed." But who says Lenovo cannot assemble machines? "
"Ah? Lenovo is also assembling machines? Won't it lower our brand's value? "Liu Chuanzhi frowned and asked.
"Absolutely not. On the contrary, we can still snatch the machines from those small shops. But we will only assemble machines in large quantities and not one or two machines. Do you understand? "
Liu Chuanzhi understood what Feng Yu meant. This means they can use this method to snatch the internet cafes' business. Lenovo is China and Asia's biggest PC manufacturer. Because of their high volume, they can get the lowest prices from hardware manufacturers. This is their advantage in terms of cost.
Also, Lenovo had set up their flagship stores in most of the counties and had the best distribution channels. With Lenovo's brand advantage, they can definitely snatch the orders from those small shops.
Lenovo was also the leader in the wholesale market. Most of the orders from the government and enterprises were from Lenovo. But those enterprises did not have any requirements for the machines. They only wanted the machines to be used for office work, and they also specified that the machines must be from Lenovo.
Now, Lenovo was only focusing on games, and they only wanted the CPU, RAM, graphics card, etc.
Lenovo could also assemble machines. It could even be said that Lenovo was the biggest PC assembly company in Hua Xia. They can also use Lenovo's PC cases and monitors to promote their brand.
Those who are not satisfied with playing in the internet cafes and want to buy their own PC will instinctively choose Lenovo.
Hmmm … Lenovo can also introduce a gaming desktop PC. I believe it will be very popular.
"But those small shops will still snatch away some of our business."
"Manager Liu, you are eating the meat, but you must let others drink the soup. If we really let them only sell accessories, how often do they have to break down before they can make money? " Feng Yu shook his head. If Lenovo were to accept assembly jobs for even one machine, they might be able to monopolize the market. But this way, they will not be able to close the gap. Those assembled machines had affected Lenovo's business, and it will also affect those overseas brands.
Also, it was the same as Feng Yu's previous life. When a company was about to monopolize the Chinese market, another company will appear to compete with it. Maybe the second company will get some support from the government.
That's why even Hua Xia will not let anyone monopolize the market. Even some state-owned enterprises like energy, finance, insurance, etc. will have more than one state-owned enterprise.
"Alright. This should be enough. This year's desktop PC sales should increase by 40%. If you can help me."
"What help?" Feng Yu was puzzled.
"For example, add a sentence in your Legend of Mir. Recommend Lenovo PC."
Built-in advertisements? Damn! Old Liu even knows this trick?! Feng Yu also owns shares in Lenovo, and it's not a big deal for him to help.
"Ok. Ask Lenovo's advertising department to contact Wind and Rain Games. Ask them to help you add built-in advertisements. Oh, Old Liu, how is our software development going? "
