"Boss, Director Liu has been working overtime recently. He is very busy with Taihua Holdings and Lenovo Group, and he seems to be tired." Wu Chih-gang placed a cup of tea in front of Feng Yu and said.
Liu Chuanzhi is getting on in years. If he only manages one side of the company, it will not be a problem. But if he oversees too many things, he will not be able to handle it.
This way, his efficiency will not be high, and he might even make mistakes and cause losses to the company.
Feng Yu felt it's time to speak to Liu Chuanzhi. He can let someone else manage Lenovo Group.
For example, Lenovo Group's current Chairman, Yang Yuanqing. Feng Yu felt Yang Yuanqing was a good choice. In his previous life, Yang Yuanqing was also the Chairman of Lenovo Group.
Also, Yang Yuanqing is trusted by Liu Chuanzhi and has a lot of authority in the company. Liu Chuanzhi is still the company's shareholder, and if Yang Yuanqing does not do well, he can still ask him to step down.
"I know. What's wrong? Do you want to take over Lenovo Group?" Feng Yu looked at Wu Chih-gang. Does Wu Chih-gang want to be the Chairman of this company?
With Feng Yu's support, it is possible. But Feng Yu felt it is not suitable. Wu Chih-gang does not have any interest in these high-tech products. But if Wu Chih-gang really wants to take over this position, Feng Yu will support him.
Wu Chih-gang quickly waved his hand. "Boss, you must be joking. I only know how to use a PC, and I don't even know how to install a PC. I don't dare to think about taking over this position."
Wu Chih-gang also knows his place. Although that American, Ralph, had joined Feng Yu much later than him and had become the CEO of Wind and Rain Holdings, Ralph is more educated and has more work experience than Wu Chih-gang. Ralph had gotten his Bachelor's degree from Tai Hua Business School.
He is best at coordinating the work between the subsidiaries. No other Deputy General Managers can do this better than him. If he was really asked to be the leader, he would also be a little afraid.
"I don't understand those things, but I still became the chairman. Don't belittle yourself. Learn from Old Liu and Zong. Also, learn from our external managers. In a few years, you will be the President or CEO of Taihua Holdings. "
Wu Chih-gang was very excited, but he didn't pretend to decline. He knew that his boss didn't like this kind of fake courtesy. He would work hard to do everything the boss asked him to do. He would not embarrass the boss, and he would live up to the salary the boss gave him.
"Boss, I have something to report to you. Recently, the Fruit Company has launched a 3G mobile phone. It is selling well in the US, and they are introducing it to the European market."
"Oh? How does it compare to our Wind and rain S4? "The Fruit Company had also developed a 3G phone? Feng Yu doesn't know the performance of this phone. In Feng Yu's previous life, he had never used this phone. Furthermore, even if he had used this phone, it might be different in this life.
"It is still incomparable to our Wind and rain S4. Our Wind and rain S4 had sold close to 10 million units worldwide, and it is also a King of Mobile. Their products will be sold for a few million, and our mobile phone sales might be more than 20 million units by then! "
Wu Chih-gang was very proud when he said this. The Fruit Company's phone was just an imitation, but even Xu Lihua and Jiang Wanmeng said this was the best smartphone they had seen, only second to the Wind and rain S4.
The Fruit Company's system development was indeed unique. Also, this phone's selling price was slightly lower than the Wind and rain S4, and it was more competitive in the market.
But the Fruit Company's phone was only available in English, and there were not many applications. That's why they did not take this seriously. The Wind and rain S4 was already available in many languages, and the market was bigger.
In Feng Yu's previous life, the Fruit Company had two versions of their 3G phone, and they had sold more than 20 million units. This made the Fruit Company a popular mobile phone manufacturer.
Although 20 million units was nothing compared to Nokia, Motorola, etc., it was a success for a company that had just entered the mobile phone industry. Furthermore, the Fruit Company's phones were more expensive, and the profits were higher.
It was also because of the successful development of 3G phones that the Fruit Company developed the iPad, and it started the legendary era of the Fruit Company.
But in this life, Lenovo Group was the first to develop the PAD, and the first popular 3G phone was the Wind and rain S4. Even the MP3, PC, etc. were not as developed as the Fruit Company in Feng Yu's previous life.
This year, due to the economic crisis, the Fruit Company's profits had dropped, while Lenovo Group and Hua Xia's electronics and home appliances companies' profits were still increasing.
"Tell Xu Lihua and Jiang Wanmeng not to give the Fruit Company's iPhone a chance to rise."
"Manager Liu had also said the same thing. But we still have not thought of a strategy. We are still being praised to death." Wu Chih-gang explained.
Some media claimed that the Wind and rain phone's sales had continued to increase this year, and their profits had increased significantly. They had become the top mobile phone brand in China, and Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, etc., were no match for them.
If they were talking about the sales, it would be like advertising for the Wind and rain phones, and Feng Yu and the rest will be happy.
But if they claim that the profits had increased significantly, they are too cunning. What they are trying to say is that the price-performance ratio of the Wind and rain phone is not as high as advertised, and everyone is being cheated.
That's right. The profits of the Wind and rain phones are high, but the Wind and rain phone's best selling model is the Value Phone.
Last year, the global economic situation is not good, and it is getting worse this year. That's why more people are buying the cheap Value Phone.
That mobile phone is not making much money. Especially after the depreciation of the USD, the profit from the overseas sales is only 1 USD.
Who will believe that a mobile phone can only make such a small profit?
Even Taihua Holdings had discussed if they should stop producing this Value Phone. They had also agreed with other mobile phone manufacturers to stop producing this Value Phone. This is beneficial to everyone.
Feng Yu rejected this suggestion. The purpose of this mobile phone is to let more people use mobile phones, and their lives will be inseparable from mobile phones.
When they see other mobile phones with different functions, when their income is higher, will they not change to a better mobile phone?
Feng Yu and the rest realized that the Fruit Company's iPhone is not mentioned among the mobile phone brands mentioned. Feng Yu will never believe that this has nothing to do with the Fruit Company.
This is considered a normal business strategy, and Feng Yu is not angry. But since the other party had made a move, then Wind and Rain phones must retaliate!
Feng Yu had wanted to find a competitor to attack, and the Fruit Company came to him!
