"No! We can't do that! " Zhu Qiushui thought that her words would be praised by her man, but she did not expect to be rejected!
"Why? Are we going to maintain the original price? Are we going to watch Lenovo take over our market? "Zhu Qiushui said unhappily.
"You're only half right. We can't watch Lenovo take over our market, but we can't lower the price of the Little Genius. At least, we can't lower it so quickly. Otherwise, when it reaches the cost price, even if we can use the cost to defeat our opponent, it will be too much of a loss. We can only earn a few dollars per Little Genius. What's there to earn?" Jia Yapeng shook his head.
"But if we don't fight a price war, what else can we do? Lenovo has a longer history than us. According to the offline channels, they are on par with us. Also, the technology they use is different from ours. It's hard for us to sue them using patents! "Zhu Qiushui sighed.
"Wait … What did you just say?" Jia Yapeng's expression changed.
"I said it's hard for us to sue them using patents!" Zhu Qiushui said.
"Not this sentence. I asked about the previous sentence!"
"I said the technology they use is different from ours!" Zhu Qiushui rolled her eyes.
"That's right. The technology they use is different from ours, but it must be a very mature technology. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to complete the design and mass production within three months. Therefore, the technology must be from the Little Tyrant Electronics Factory. Others might not know where the Little Tyrant Electronics Factory got the technology from, but how could I not know? " The corners of Boss Jia's mouth curled into a faint smile. Then, he rushed out with the little genius in his arms.
"Where are you going?" Zhu Qiushui chased after him and asked.
"I'm going to the joint laboratory to look for Elder Ni. I'll ask him to test this learning machine for me," Boss Jia said loudly. Then, he disappeared without a trace.
"This bastard!" Zhu Qiushui stomped her feet. This guy hasn't been back for three months. Every time they meet, he talks about work. After that, he goes to look for other things. Doesn't this guy know that I've been causing a flood for the past three months?

"Hahaha! Come, everyone, raise your glasses. Today, I, Yang Yuanqing, will celebrate with everyone! " In a private room of a luxurious hotel in the capital, a large dining table that could accommodate 24 people at the same time was filled with guests. Yang Yuanqing sat in the chairman's seat, holding a wine glass high up and toasting to everyone.
"Director Yang is so generous!"
"Director Yang is generous!"
"It's all thanks to Director Yang. We're just running errands!"
Almost everyone was toasting to Yang Yuanqing or flattering him. It couldn't be helped, as Yang Yuanqing was now the hero of Lenovo!
Although the Little Tyrant learning machine was only launched in May of this year, and the profit per unit of the Little Tyrant learning machine was only 100 dollars, this did not stop the Little Tyrant learning machine from achieving great results.
In the whole of May, it had sold a total of one million units. According to the profit per unit of 100 dollars, this was a profit of 100 million. In an instant, it had made up for more than half of Lenovo's losses in the past few months!
More importantly, this 100 million profit was snatched from the Daqian's mouth. It was equivalent to giving the Daqian a tight slap in the face. Yang Yuanqing had also indirectly won against the Daqian, a company that had been aggressive recently. He had given them a hard slap on the head and vented the anger of many people at Lenovo.
Yesterday, the chairman, Liu Chuanzhi, praised Yang Yuanqing greatly in front of everyone. He even vaguely hinted that he wanted to promote Yang Yuanqing to be his successor.
This made Yang Yuanqing very proud. As a result, the next day, some of Yang Yuanqing's trusted subordinates, as well as the relevant heroes of the Little Tyrant this time, gathered in the hotel to celebrate Yang Yuanqing's success.
In fact, although they were celebrating, they were basically flattering Yang Yuanqing. Yang Yuanqing, a man who usually didn't show his emotions, couldn't help but feel a little smug.
Of course, there were also people who didn't want to flatter Yang Yuanqing. For example, a man in his thirties who was sitting five or six seats away from Yang Yuanqing lowered his head the whole time. He almost didn't say a word and just ate with his head lowered.
"Director Duan, you are also a hero this time. Come and say a few words to everyone!" This person didn't want to speak, but someone forced him to speak. As a result, Yang Yuanqing took the initiative to call his name.
"What can I say? I don't know anything. I'll just follow President Yang's lead! "The man raised his head and smiled foolishly.
"Hahaha! Director Duan, you are too modest. If it weren't for your preparation this time, we wouldn't be so fast! " Yang Yuanqing laughed, and the man nodded in agreement. However, when he lowered his head, his fists were clenched tightly.
This man was called Duan Yongping. He used to be the director of The Little Tyrant Electronics Factory in Zhongshan City. It was Duan Yongping who decided to make The Little Tyrant's video game console.
After Duan Yongping graduated from university, he was assigned to The Little Tyrant Electronics Factory in Zhongshan City. The factory lost two million yuan a year. Later, the factory couldn't support itself because of the losses. The leader wanted to sell The Little Tyrant. It was Duan Yongping who came forward and said that he could bring The Little Tyrant back to life.
Then, Duan Yongping made The Little Tyrant the first factory in Hua Xia to do video game console business. In fact, to put it bluntly, The Little Tyrant was an imitation of F&C game console, and then produced pirated F&C game cards to make money.
This successfully brought The Little Tyrant back to life. However, the market structure of Hua Xia, and more importantly, the attitude of parents towards video games, made it difficult for video game consoles to sell well in Hua Xia. Moreover, there was a serious risk of copyright infringement.
Therefore, in 1991, when Boss Jia successfully sued Yuzhang City's state-owned printing factory for piracy and copyright infringement, and then forcibly shut down a state-owned printing factory with tens of millions of yuan, Duan Yongping felt the problem of piracy even more.
Therefore, Duan Yongping planned to get out of this risk area. After thinking about it for two to three months, Duan Yongping successfully came up with the idea of a computer typing learning machine.
Because it was a computer typing learning machine, it wouldn't be like a video game console, which was hated by most parents. At the same time, because the structure of the computer typing learning machine was more complicated than that of the F&C game console, although part of it might use the patented functions of the F&C game console, the risk of copyright infringement was greatly reduced.
Duan Yongping even thought of setting up a shell company to produce pirated game cartridges, which was a magical way to avoid risks.
Then, Duan Yongping persuaded the leaders to invest all the money that The Little Tyrant earned from the game console into the development of the computer typing learning machine.
This development took one and a half years, from early 1991 to late 1992. Just as the development was about to be completed and mass production was about to begin, The Little Tyrant was released.
Looking at the computer typing learning machine that was almost exactly the same as his imagination, which appeared in the hands of other companies first, Duan Yongping collapsed.
However, after collapsing, Duan Yongping felt that he still had to fight for it. He gritted his teeth and decided to mass produce the computer typing learning machine. This way, he could use the advantage of the low price to compete with The Little Tyrant for the market.
However, The Little Tyrant had already invested all its funds into research and development. It didn't have any extra funds to mass produce the computer typing learning machine.
Therefore, The Little Tyrant chose to take a loan from the bank. It was a total of 10 million yuan to build the production line. Just when everything was ready and only one thing was missing, Duan Yongping suddenly found out that The Little Tyrant had been sold off by the city.
He was completely dumbfounded the second time.
Although Duan Yongping was The Little Tyrant's factory director, he was appointed by the higher-ups. The Little Tyrant was actually a state-owned enterprise in Zhongshan City. The controlling shares were in the hands of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. It had nothing to do with Duan Yongping.
Originally, because Duan Yongping had brought The Little Tyrant back from the dead, his relationship with the higher-ups was very harmonious. However, Duan Yongping had put all his eggs in one basket and used up all of The Little Tyrant's profits to take a loan of 10 million yuan from the bank to develop the computer typing learning machine. The city was a little panicked.
At this time, the country was investigating the problem of state-owned assets loss. The city felt that this was a typical problem of state-owned assets loss. God knew if Duan Yongping had used the name of the factory to steal all of The Little Tyrant's profits into his own hands.
Therefore, an investigation team was sent out to investigate. In the end, they found that all the accounts were very clear and reasonable. There were no problems. However, they were even more panicked.
This was because they found out that The Little Tyrant had lost 10 million yuan on the computer typing learning machine. Wasn't the Little Tyrant competing with the crazy Daqian? How could such a Little Tyrant compete with a big tiger like the Daqian? Moreover, there was the shadow of the old man behind the Daqian. Didn't you see the old man's calligraphy hanging in the chairman's office?
Therefore, the city was quite panicked. At this time, Lenovo came and proposed to buy The Little Tyrant. They were willing to take on The Little Tyrant's debt and give the city five million yuan for the purchase.
When the city heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. Without giving any notice to Duan Yongping, they sold The Little Tyrant.
