Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1970

Unlike other employees in the company, Duan Yun can feel a strong sense of mission in Ni Guangnan. Being famous is not only a kind of affirmation of his past, but also a kind of pressure on his future. When he returned to his motherland from Canada, he was already doomed.

Duan Yun was quite relieved to hand over the position of chief engineer of the company to him, because Ni Guangnan was a top figure in the country in terms of academic qualifications, creativity, and scientific research achievements.

Moreover, compared to Huang Lingyi, who also came from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ni Guangnan has much higher qualifications than him. In addition, in terms of fame, industry influence, and leadership ability, Ni Guangnan is also much stronger than Huang Lingyi and Jiang Mingwei. With personal influence, a top domestic research and development team was quickly formed, with strong organizational and execution capabilities. This is something that Huang Lingyi and others cannot compare.

So these years, Tianyin R&D Center has not set up the position of chief engineer, because no suitable candidate has been found, but now, with Ni Guangnan, Duan Yun can free up his hands and devote more time and energy to Spending on other industries of the company.

After the two visited the chip factory, they came to the electronics factory together. Here, Ni Guangnan saw the DVD player developed by Tianyin Group for the first time.

"Is this the epoch-making audio-visual product developed by our group company?" Ni Guangnan glanced at the DVD prototype on the table and asked Duan Yun.

"That's right, although the appearance of this machine is similar to that of a VCD, in fact, it is much better than a VCD in terms of sound quality, picture quality, and storage capacity." Duan Yun smiled slightly, and continued: "But , I am not planning to sell this product in China for the time being, but choose to launch it in the United States. In the future, the business focus of our group company will expand from domestic to global, and this product is the stepping stone I use to open the American market. "

"The U.S. market is not so easy to open." Ni Guangnan shook his head gently, and continued: "Compared with foreign countries, our country's electronic product technology gap is too huge. Don't look at the products our company produced before. It is very popular, the main reason is that it is cheap and durable, but in terms of product technology, it is far behind our neighbor Japan, at least 10 to 20 years behind."

Ni Guangnan is quite familiar with the electronic products of Tianyin Group. He has the experience of living and working abroad. Among the electronic products he has come into contact with, most of them are from Japan and the United States, but he has never seen them in foreign markets. electronic products from China.

In addition, after returning to China, he has been working as the chief engineer of Lenovo, so he still has a good understanding of the technical level of electronic products in the Chinese market, especially Tianyin Group, a leading domestic electronic product company, has many Domestic high-tech enterprises and companies compete to study and imitate objects, including Lenovo. So in fact, Ni Guangnan not only knows all the products produced by Tianyin Group in recent years, but also conducts a relatively in-depth analysis of these product technologies. The evaluation of Tianyin Group and even China's electronics industry is still very objective.

"That's true." Duan Yun nodded in agreement, only to hear him continue: "If there is no national tariff protection and directly faces competition from foreign products, our company will not survive at all, but if we go abroad, everyone will be in the same company. The starting line, then you have to rely on your real skills..."

"So you want to gain a firm foothold in the United States with one product?" Ni Guangnan said.

"I only have such a small family background, and this product is also the only electronic product that can be sold." Duan Yun pouted, and then said: "So I hope that Academician Ni, in addition to the chip industry, will also need to invest some energy in the future, including us. The company has developed some new electronic products. Our large group company has more than 1 people, including overseas employees. If you have feelings, you must also consider the daily necessities in front of you, otherwise, the so-called dream will be a castle in the air."

"I understand what you mean." Hearing this, Ni Guangnan smiled slightly, and continued: "You may regard me as an idealist, but it's not the case. When I was in Lenovo, I relied on the developed Hanka It has brought very high profits to the company. In fact, what I have always wanted to develop the most is the chip industry, but as the chief engineer, I also need to solve some survival problems of the company..."

Although Ni Guangnan has a straightforward personality, he is definitely not a rigid and stubborn person. He saw that Duan Yun seemed to have misunderstood him, so he explained it.

In fact, the previous incidents in Lenovo also made Ni Guangnan deeply reflect on why he was very respected in the company, but in the end, it turned into a situation of betrayal. The big reason is that he did not consider other people's concerns. interests, but blindly emphasize their own requirements.

"It's great that you can think so." Duan Yun smiled slightly, and continued: "I believe Academician Ni, you are a person with a sense of the overall situation, just like an exam, you can't be too biased..."

"Let's put it this way, my own ability is limited, and I have never been in touch with the design of products such as DVD and VCD before. Although I value the chip most, I will also make a comprehensive consideration." Ni Guangnan pondered After a while, he continued: "Although my personal experience and ability are limited, I have several students who have high attainments in the design of electronic products, and they are young and very creative. I will arrange them to enter product design. Department work, I will also spare a certain amount of time to guide them in their work, no matter what, I will try my best to increase the sales and profits of our group company."

"If you say that, I'm relieved." Duan Yun nodded with a smile, and said after a while: "In half a month, I will go to the United States, and I may stay in the United States for 2 to 3 months. You will be solely responsible for the R&D work here..."

"Are you going to America in half a month?" Ni Guangnan asked in surprise.

"That's right. At present, our group's branch in the United States is fully operational, and we also have in-depth cooperation with Sony America, so this trip to the United States is mainly for the release of DVDs, which is related to the overseas market of our group company. expansion, so I have to personally go to the United States to sit in charge." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "If this time can be successful, then our group company will obtain a large amount of valuable foreign exchange from the American market, so as to buy more from the world. With more advanced technology and equipment, and enough funds to attract more top talents to join us, Tianyin Group will no longer be a purely national enterprise, but also a global technology company!"
