After leaving Zhang Ruiqiang's place, Feng Yu had a good relationship with him. After Old Zhang was transferred over, he will be of great help to Feng Yu. As for Bing City, no one dares to touch Feng Yu's businesses.
Feng Yu told Liu Chuanzhi that the higher-ups will not be able to stop Taiwanese companies from entering the Hua Xia market. Feng Yu did not explain to Liu Chuanzhi the reason.
Liu Chuanzhi heard this and knew that this netbook must be introduced earlier. Even if they cannot chase away Taiwanese companies in Hua Xia, they will still be able to make a name for themselves in Europe and the US.
Once Lenovo Group becomes the top PC manufacturer or notebook PC manufacturer, Lenovo Group's sales will increase if they use this as a gimmick to market their products.
The consumers will think that Lenovo's laptop is good. If not, why would so many people buy it?
This will form a virtuous cycle. As long as the product's design concept and quality are at the forefront of the world, then the sales will be at the top for a long time.
If Lenovo Group goes all out, it will be very powerful. With the help of AMD, Nvidia, Aiwa Electronics, and other companies' designers, they quickly came up with a laptop that was too specialized in certain fields.
The graphics card will be highly integrated, and it will not be a problem to watch movies. The motherboard will be AMD's dual-core 1 GHZ. Although it is not as powerful, it can still be used to surf the internet and watch movies. This is a netbook.
After all the specs were made, the specs were much lower than the mainstream desktop computers, and the specs were also lower than the mainstream laptops. However, the technology was much more advanced than two years ago.
All the hardware is for speed and battery savings. With this new operating system, it will give the users a high-speed internet experience.

"Old Liu, what do you think of this operating system?" Feng Yu is more concerned about the operating system than this netbook.
"We are very satisfied with this operating system. It is using the same operating system as Microsoft Windows, and you can operate it with just a mouse. We've made some simplifications on the boot page, added some new icons, and placed the desktop display button in the lower right corner to make it easier for users to quickly display the desktop and hide the page they're browsing. "
"Our system interface looks more beautiful, or rather, gorgeous. The visual effects are very good, and it's very comfortable to look at. Originally, our configuration requirements were very high, but after continuous simplification, we now have two versions. One was called the personal version, and the other was called the corporate version. The configuration requirements for the personal version are slightly higher than XP, but not by much. Our netbook is more than enough to support it. "
"We are faster than XP in terms of operating system speed. Whether it's the speed of switching on and off, the speed of installing and running software, or the speed of copying files, it's better than XP. "
"Also, our system is better than XP in terms of watching videos and browsing the web. However, our system may not be compatible with many software. Video software is fine, but some game software is more troublesome. We have to get their approval and support … "
Those who make games and other entertainment software support a system that is equivalent to an industry standard. Now, most people are supporting Microsoft's standard. Of course, there are other standards like Apple's standard, but Lenovo Kingsoft's standard is not there yet.
If the software is not compatible with the operating system, many users will be unhappy and will not be used to it. The best solution is to get those software manufacturers to produce software that can support Lenovo Kingsoft's operating system. This will make things easier.
Feng Yu had wanted to make Lenovo Kingsoft's operating system compatible with Microsoft's operating system in the past. But because he does not know the other party's code, he could not do it perfectly.
After that, Qiu Bojun gave up on compatibility, and Lenovo Kingsoft's PC operating system was developed faster. But this had also caused problems for their operating system.
User habits are hard to change. Users are used to using one operating system, and they will not be used to the other. Luckily, Lenovo Kingsoft's operating system was designed with this in mind. Their operating system is similar to Microsoft's operating system.
Basically, if you know how to use Microsoft's operating system, you will know how to use Lenovo Kingsoft's operating system.
Also, Lenovo Kingsoft's operating system has many interesting innovations. For example, there are some keyboard shortcuts, which are not available in XP or any other Microsoft operating system.
But if Microsoft wants to, they can also implement these new functions in XP.
But there is one benefit now. Microsoft is planning to introduce their new operating system. That's why they had slowed down their maintenance and updates for XP. They want to make this operating system obsolete as soon as possible to stimulate the users to buy their new operating system.
There are no profits from updating the operating system, but the profits from selling the new operating system are high.
"Are you confident that you can defeat Microsoft with this operating system?" Feng Yu asked.
"Currently, our system is more useful than XP. The only and biggest weakness is the software compatibility. If we can overcome this flaw, we are confident that we will be able to snatch a big piece of the pie from Microsoft. As we have more users, our profits will increase, and we will invest more in technologies. Our market share will increase in the future. "Lei Dajun said.
Liu Chuanzhi added. "We are going to use this cheap operating system to introduce our operating system. In the future, all Lenovo's computers will be installed with this operating system. This way, more people will be using our operating system, and more users will be born."
"What is the selling price of this operating system?"
"The personal version is 69 USD, and the enterprise version is 99 USD. It is about one-third of Microsoft's selling price. "
Microsoft's enterprise version of XP is selling for more than 300 USD, and the personal version is selling for 199 USD. It seems that this operating system is very cheap.
But Feng Yu shook his head. "The selling price is too high."
"What? This price is too high? This is close to our cost price. If we sell it any lower, we will not make any profits. We might even suffer losses. "Qiu Bojun emphasized. After all, their operating system will not be able to sell a lot of operating systems.
"I know we had spent a lot on developing this operating system. But don't forget how much Microsoft's products are selling in China. It was only 20 USD in the past. Even so, some people are still using pirated versions. "
"Are you telling me that we must lower the selling price of this operating system to less than 10 USD in China?" Qiu Bojun asked. 10 USD? Their sales must catch up with Microsoft to make money.
"Bundle. We will bundle the operating system, anti-virus software, office software, video software, internet browser, etc., and sell them at 199 RMB in China and 49 USD overseas! "
