After a day of emergency meetings, Meiliang Computers decided to give up on the internet café market.
In terms of price, Meiliang Computers cannot compete with Xiaomi Computers.
After giving up on the internet café market, Meiliang Computers can only focus on the personal computer market and the ZF purchasing market.
Luckily, Meiliang Computers still have a firm grip on these two markets.
Thanks to Meiliang Computers' 10 years of marketing, Meiliang Computers is the best computer in China. It is the symbol of the brand.
Any individual or ZF unit that wants to buy a branded computer will choose Meiliang Computers.
Furthermore, Meiliang Computers had followed Yang Yuanqing's plan and started all sorts of activities to reduce prices. Many customers who wanted to buy a computer went crazy.
In the end, within a month, Meiliang Computers' sales in the personal computer market increased by 500,000 units and broke all previous records.
Although the price had dropped a little, the overall profits had increased a lot. This made the people at Meiliang Computer forget about the internet cafe market very quickly. They began to focus on the personal computer market and the ZF market to continue earning money from the leeks.
On the other hand, Xiaomi Computers did not try to enter the personal computer market. It is not that Xiaomi Computers is not aggressive, but Meiliang Computers is too strong in this market.
It is not easy to conquer the reputation of Xiaomi Computers.
Although the Chinese are greedy, they also value brands. They feel that brands are a guarantee. They are more inclined to buy products with brand guarantees.
As for Xiaomi Computers, although it looks cheap, there is nothing good in cheap products. If the quality is not good, the few thousand RMB spent will be wasted.
This is just like Shenzhou Computers.
When Shenzhou Computers were launched, the prices were very good. Some models with the same specs were even cheaper than Lenovo and other brands. However, it is still difficult to break through the sales in China.
First, it is because the quality of Shenzhou Computers is hard to describe. It is not unreasonable for it to be cheap.
Secondly, it is not comparable to Lenovo and IBM in terms of branding. Most of the customers in the personal computer market are still very strange.
By the time the customers were back to normal and knew how to compare the configuration and price-performance ratio of the computer, the entire market was taken over by Taobao computer-installation stores such as Ningmei Country.
All in all, it was still difficult for Xiaomi to attack the PC market and the ZF market.
Fortunately, the internet café market was very smooth. The internet café owners who only cared about the price quickly understood who was their daddy. Hence, Xiaomi Computer quickly took over the entire internet café market and became the sole hegemon of the market.
All of a sudden, Meiliang and Xiaomi, the two machine manufacturers, ceased their activities one after another. Yang Yuanqing also successfully returned to his high position in Meiliang and resumed his glorious life.

"Chairman, thank you for coming here personally this time!" Time returned to the moment when Boss Jia left Microsoft's Hua Xia company. Leng Xunxin followed Boss Jia and said with some shame.
"There's nothing to be troubled about. It's just that I've neglected the problem of the original software. After all, I'm used to using pirated software!" Boss Jia sighed. Leng Xunxin thought that Boss Jia was talking about before today, but he did not know that Boss Jia was talking about his previous life.
In his previous life, Boss Jia did not pay a single cent for the original Microsoft operating system.
Hence, in this life, he naturally neglected the cost of the original computer operating system.
Well, the 15 RMB activation code on Taobao was not included.
"Why? Are you still not convinced?" Boss Jia glanced at Leng Xunxin and asked with a smile.
"Chairman, we can actually not spend money or spend less. We have a better way!" Leng Xunxin was probably very unwilling to give up the 100 million USD.
His Star Mechanical Equipment earned hard-earned money. One RMB of goods only earned 10 cents in profit. If he wanted to earn 100 million USD, he would have to sell goods worth 1 billion USD. Leng Xunxin was unwilling to give up when he saw that 100 million USD was easily taken away by Microsoft using the original software.
"How can you ask such a question? It seems that you are not even as good as a student under 20 years old!" Boss Jia rolled his eyes at Leng Xunxin and said, "That's right. We do have many ways to avoid the original software. Xiaomi can also stay out of this. Let those internet cafe owners play dirty with Microsoft. In the end, Microsoft will not be able to win against those internet cafe owners. We don't need to pay any copyright fees at all!"
"But have you thought about it? Microsoft is the one collecting copyright fees now. What about the future? "
"The future?" Leng Xunxin was dumbfounded.
"What if we are the ones collecting copyright fees in the future?" Boss Jia patted Leng Xunxin's shoulder and said, "Don't be so narrow-minded. Now that we have paid Microsoft for the original software, we can also collect copyright fees from others in the future."
"What we need to do is to set an example for all the Hua Xia people and Hua Xia companies. We need to let the Hua Xia people understand that piracy is wrong and that the original software is right. This is the only way for us to be sustainable. This way, we can be like Microsoft in the future and collect copyright fees crazily. Do you understand?"
"We can only set an example and let everyone understand the importance of supporting the original software. Then we will not have to worry about piracy in the future!" Boss Jia sighed and said.
He knew a guy named Leng Pudding, who was a web novelist. He started to write novels online in 2005 when he was 15 years old.
At that time, Qidian was just established. At the same time, it created a IP fee system. As a result, the number of people who subscribed to the original software was pitifully small. If a book could have an average subscription of 100, it would be a celebration.
If a book could have an average subscription of 500, that person would be a god.
When "Mad God" was serialized on Qidian, it only had an average subscription of 1000 a month. That was the result of Qidian's supreme god.
At that time, Hua Xia did not have any copyright awareness at all. Most readers even took pride in reading pirated novels. This made life very difficult for many web novelists. It was impossible to make a living by writing books.
Later, with the improvement of Hua Xia's economic level, and more importantly, the quality of the new generation of web novel users improved. The awareness of the original software increased, and the number of online novel subscriptions gradually broke through from 1000 to 10,000. Recently, there were even 100,000 subscriptions.
Therefore, if Boss Jia wanted people in the future to support the original software and the work of these authors, then the Daqian Group had to set an example and support the original software. Otherwise, how could they persuade those readers to read the original software?
