I asked you to save a bankrupt factory and you became the richest man in the world.

Chapter 193 Chapter 59-61: Hillhouse Technology’s mid-year review and new product development! (three chapters in total)

Li Yinxin and Zheng Zhenxi curiously took the information handed over by Zheng Yixuan.

"This is a B-class car from a small company in China. What is this...Lingxiao Technology? What a strange name. Why is a car company called Technology? I thought it was a company that develops video games!" See The very conspicuous title on the plan made Zheng Zhenxi standing aside and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Sister, don't be like this... But, uncle, is Daidai Automobile currently studying such a company?" Li Yinxin, who tilted her head to look at the plan curiously, covered her mouth and laughed secretly.

The Sansang Li family and the Xiandai Zheng family were family friends. In Zheng Zhenxi’s great-grandfather’s generation, they could be said to have been in contact since the late Qing Dynasty.

In addition, the business lines of Sansang are mainly electronic technology, semiconductors, banking and insurance, etc., which hardly overlap with the heavy industry, automobiles and other heavy assets of the line generation, and there is no involutional competitive relationship, so the relationship between the two companies can Said they were getting along quite well.

That's why Li Yinxin, a junior, started joking with Zheng Yixuan.

Zheng Yixuan looked embarrassed, thinking that there were only two juniors in front of him, so what did they know!Even he couldn't see through this big change that was floating in the dark, and he said helplessly, "Maybe this is not a simple B-class car, but a new technical path, so it attracted your grandfather's attention."

"And... the founder of this company is only in his 20s, about the same age as you."

"Ah...? There is such a thing?!" It was Li Yinxin and Zheng Zhenxi's turn to be surprised.

When the two of them took a closer look, they were even more shocked and unbelievable.

The country of Han is completely different from the country of China.

Chaebols occupy basically all the core channels for making money, and the bread crumbs left for ordinary people are pitifully low.

The income of the top 10% of the upper class in the Cold Country accounts for 45% of the overall income, which is the highest value among Asian countries.

Akun coefficient, oh no, the Gini coefficient is astonishingly high!
In cold countries, not only is the social polarization between rich and poor serious, but social class mobility is low.

Families above the middle class send their children to prestigious universities through cram schools, thereby achieving "the continuation of wealth and status from generation to generation."

Not to mention the wealthy class.

The son of a chaebol will be a chaebol, the son of a congressman will be a congressman, the son of a craftsman will be a craftsman, and the son of a farmer will be a farmer.

And now, the son of a bankrupt small electric fan factory owner.

Unexpectedly, after taking over halfway, he was able to continuously create miracles, including developing mobile phones and cars, and it was actually very prosperous.

In the eyes of the Han people, this is simply a miracle!

Having said this, the two of them sat down on the sofa nearby and looked through the lines in the investigation report.

Gradually, their expressions changed from casual to curious, and then from curious to solemn.

When I saw the electronic interior, the solemn look on my face turned into shock!
The combination of electronic technology and automobiles.

This is tantamount to the fusion of Sansang and Xiandai.

Can a car be played like this?
“This car looks very beautiful, and it’s not an exaggeration to use the words high-end, elegant, and high-end to describe it...”

"That's right! There are not so many bells and whistles. This car takes a minimalist route. The front of the car adopts a very Chinese element design language, coupled with through-type chrome-plated decorative strips, the supercar's low profile is very obvious. Compared with My Ferrari Enzo is not inferior."

"All mechanical instruments have been changed to electronic ones. I think this design may be more friendly to girls."

The two people were discussing happily below.

As for Li Yinxin, she was born in a chaebol, and she had worked on a fashion website and was very sensitive to some fashion elements, so she immediately recognized the advantages of this product's appearance.

And when she saw the function introduction of the range extender, she couldn't help but frown.

Seeing Li Yinxin frowning after reading the document, Zheng Zhenxi, who was not very understanding at the side, quickly asked, "How is it, Sister Yinxin, do you see anything?"

Li Yinxin stood up slowly and shook her head solemnly, "I don't know either. The knowledge involved here is too profound. It can be seen that this company is not just copying stuff from other companies. They should have their own concept in terms of the products they make.”

"However, I am sure that if our Sansang company cooperated with the line generation, we would not be able to think of such an interior!"

Zheng Yixuan, who was present, looked at her in surprise. You must know that Li Yinxin, who emerged from the crisis in 06, is now her father's assistant. She is not just an ordinary Sansangsan princess.

This means that she has a strong understanding of Sansang's R&D capabilities.

Such a young man actually said that Sansang couldn't come up with this kind of interior?
What do these mean?
This made both Zheng Zhenxi and their jaws drop.

No wonder Zheng Mengjiu attaches so much importance to the product quality of this car.

this. . .So unbelievable!
"I'm just talking casually, and I'm not sure. However, let alone Sansang, Uncle Zheng's line-generation cars have so many years of research and development history and have accumulated many years of experience in car research and development. I think, As long as the Line Generation Group exerts a little effort and produces a better car based on this car, there will be no problem at all.”

Li Yinxin on the side smiled and said to Zheng Yixuan on the side.

However, her heart gradually became curious.

This Gao Huaijun, an ordinary person, can actually build a B-class car that even Grandpa Zheng was shocked.

You know, in a soil like Han Country, it is impossible for such a genius to appear.

After all, our country, the Great Cold Country, has its own national conditions!
However, in a barren land like China, how could such a god-level young man in his 20s be born?
Thinking of this, she became even more curious.

On the other hand, Zheng Yixuan couldn't help feeling happy after hearing her words.

I couldn't help but have an overwhelming impression of Li Yinxin.

No wonder Boss Li chose this girl to be his assistant. She is indeed unique.

He is also under a lot of pressure now.

This has just taken over, and the overseas strategy of Line Generation Auto has been very unsatisfactory recently.

In the beautiful country, there is resistance from Japanese cars.

In China, the growth trend is not as good as that in beautiful countries.

It stresses him out a lot!
He nodded with a smile and then made important notes on the document.

Mark it as important.

Immediately, this file was passed to the headquarters R&D center of Line Generation Automobile by his assistant.

Gao Huaijun, this little butterfly, finally affected the whirlwind to other areas!
【Chapter 60】

Gao Huaijun didn't know that his Han Dynasty was actually noticed by Hanguo's first-generation cars.

Otherwise, you will definitely be shocked.

Although large companies are large in size, their actions will be slower.

But, anyway, this is one of the top ten companies in the world.

Don’t underestimate this first-generation car!
In later generations, the top three Japanese companies were steadily losing ground under the impact of new energy vehicles.

However, line-generation cars have steadily withstood the impact.

In Gao Huaijun's previous life.

The first-generation car demonstrates its ability to compete in the growing and very important field of electric vehicles.

In the first five months of 2022, the Ioniq 5, EV6 and Niro ranked fifth, sixth and ninth respectively among all electric vehicles on the market in the United States based on new retail registrations.

These three models currently account for 11% of all electric vehicle retail registrations in the United States!

Line Generation Auto is the only company besides Tesla to have two or more electric vehicles in the top ten. If Tesla is removed, the Ioniq 5 and EV6 rank second and third behind the Mustang Mach. -E!

It can be seen from this that the company Line Generation Automobile does not have as slow a strategic transformation speed as the top three Japanese companies.

However, it will definitely be a strong opponent of Hillhouse in the future!
However, Gao Huaijun can't care about this now.

On June 6, when the Han car slowly entered the sales period, Gao Huaijun finally took time out to meet with Hillhouse Technology executives to inquire about the latest research and development progress.

"Recently, I have focused my energy on cars, and I feel more at ease with Hillhouse Technology. At present, Hillhouse Technology's product activity and the number of users are slowly rising! You are in the process of product inheritance and secondary innovation. Okay, you're doing okay!" Gao Huaijun said slowly, drinking tea below.

The executives present couldn't help laughing happily.

Now Hillhouse Technology, a company, is indeed doing pretty well!

In 08.

Micro Innovation's mate3 has sold more than 50 units, with sales reaching almost 18 billion.

More than 2 matepad30 tablet computers have been sold, with sales reaching more than 7 million.

Honor Magic, the most popular product, has bought more than 70 units, with sales of more than 15 billion.

That is to say, in 08, Hillhouse Technology's sales alone exceeded 40 billion, creating a record high!

However, time came to 09, in the first six months of 2009 that had just passed.

Mate4 alone, a high-end mobile phone highly involved by Gao Huaijun, has sold 60 units, with sales reaching 36 billion.

Coupled with matepad 3, this new tablet computer using capacitive screen technology has sold 20 units, with sales reaching 5 million.

The sales volume of Magic 2, Honor’s replacement model for civilians, has reached 40 units, with sales reaching nearly 9 million.

In other words, Hillhouse Technology, excluding Lingxiao Technology, achieved sales of 50 billion in six months!This means that in just half a year, Hillhouse Technology's sales exceeded the entire year of 08.

The development of Hillhouse Technology can be said to be very fast.

"We have achieved RMB 50 billion in half a year. This sales figure is very good! It only took us half a year to surpass the performance of 08. Everyone, give yourself a round of applause!" Gao Huaijun said with a smile.

After a burst of thunderous applause, Gao Huaijun continued, "However, we must also see the problem! The smartphone ecosystem is still in the nurturing stage. The current mobile Internet bandwidth is insufficient, the low sales volume caused by the high premium of mobile phones, etc. I know all the problems."

"However, what we have to see is that despite the same difficulties, our brother company, Lingxiao Technology, has caught up!"

"The 'Xia' model, as Lingxiao Technology's first model, achieved sales of 10 billion yuan in the first month, and has sold 17 billion yuan so far!"

"The 'Han' model is even more impressive. 2.5 units were sold in the first month, and the sales in the first month reached more than 67 billion!"

"This means that the company Lingxiao Technology's sales in the first six months reached 6 billion, and its sales exceeded Hillhouse Technology. The waves behind the Yangtze River pushed the waves ahead, and the waves in front died on the beach. Everyone, after hearing this I wonder what you think of this number?”

When they heard that Lingxiao Technology came from behind and overtook Hillhouse Technology, all the executives of Hillhouse Technology couldn't help but lower their heads.

A car is indeed a car!
Although Lingxiao Technology's sales are not high, their selling prices are high.

A Hanju costs more than 20 yuan, while a mobile phone only costs a few thousand yuan.

If mobile phones cannot reach the position of a major manufacturer in China, they will definitely not be able to compete with cars!

This is really, really profitable!
"But don't be discouraged. Although Lingxiao Technology's sales are slightly higher now, Lingxiao was born from our Hillhouse Technology. The future of our Hillhouse Technology will be no worse than Lingxiao. Once our Hillhouse Technology adds more strength, , becoming the top five companies in Huaguo Electronics Technology Business! Don’t underestimate the name of the top five companies in Huaguo Electronics Technology Business. Once we have established this name, many investment banks will notice us, so we won’t care when the time comes. Whether we go to a free port or go listed on any stock exchange in the world, we can be listed on the main board!" Gao Huaijun said calmly.

Although Gao Huaijun just said a few words briefly.

But it was a big shock to the executives present!

In fact, Hillhouse Technology has been profitable for three consecutive years.

Both sales and profit margins are at a very good level.

It can even be said that it is easy for Hillhouse Technology to go public now.

However, Gao Huaijun had no intention or idea of ​​going public at all, which puzzled his subordinates.

Even if you get on the Science and Technology Innovation Board in Freeport, although you won’t make much money, it’s still a good opportunity to exit!
Isn’t it delicious if the people below follow you and have a cup of soup?

However, today, Gao Huaijun finally took the initiative to state the listing target. How could this not cheer them up!
As corporate executives, they all have incentive target options.

These options will be canceled if you leave the company.

They will be rewarded only after completing certain performance and goals.

Although this option is small, and all the executives combined are not enough for 0.5%, they naturally hope that Hillhouse Technology can be listed as soon as possible and have a certain way to realize it.

【Chapter 61】

"The core products of Hillhouse Technology are actually very lacking now. The MP3 business has now been reduced to about 1000 million business volume. This business can be said to be better than nothing! But the Matepad business and the Honor Magic business cannot Support the development of Hillhouse Technology. As for the core cash cow product, mate4, due to problems with ecosystem construction and selling price, its current potential has not been fully realized!"

"The product matrix of Hillhouse Technology is too small! It has now reached the point where it affects the development of Hillhouse Technology."

"So, I decided..."

After saying that, Gao Huaijun paused.

The executives below immediately became energetic.

According to the recent trend of Hillhouse Technology, although the micro-innovative Matepad 3 and Honor Magic 2 have achieved a certain performance growth, the amount of growth is just that.

Hillhouse Technology, the explosive product, still has to rely on Gao Huaijun!
There is no way, everyone in the company is just a mortal, only Gao Huaijun is the real product god!
"I think we should launch Hillhouse Technology's product matrix enrichment plan. Mr. Min, during this period, in addition to developing the micro-innovative product mate5 for me, you also need to remember to recruit some people to make TVs for me." The developed technology and designers must be in place within the next half month! Because I am preparing to enrich Hillhouse Technology's matrix products and make TVs!" Gao Huaijun became smoother as he spoke, and finally stared at the crowd and said.

"Make TV!!!" All the executives present were shocked and speechless.

These people can't even imagine with their brains why an electronic technology company doesn't make good mobile phones and computers, but why does it want to make TVs?
You said you want to make laptops and PC desktop computers, and they all think it's reasonable.

This is just like Gao Huaijun insisting on making cars.

You know, the TV industry today is not the TV industry it was ten years ago.

This is not comparable to the automotive industry chosen earlier.

After all, the automobile industry has high profits and a long chain of interests. If you simply regulate it and follow Ling Xiao's direction, you can make a lot of money.

Making TV, what are you trying to do?
The current TV industry belongs to a red ocean within a red ocean. A bunch of mature and easy-to-use brands are struggling here, and the profit margins are pitiful.

Moreover, the industrial chain is extremely mature, and the profits of each manufacturer in the chain are also very low. Other supply chain partners will not even bother you!

Is it necessary for Hillhouse Technology to fight in this field?

Research and development is very expensive!

Although the development of this TV is not as good as that of mobile phones.

But it costs tens of millions, which is easy.

If we come up with more tricks, it could be worth hundreds of millions.

Although the brothers believe in your ability, Boss Gao, if something goes wrong with this new product and the company has no cash flow, wouldn't this be a waste of a good situation?

Television is an electronic terminal product with a history of a hundred years. In 1925, Chinese people produced the first valuable television.

In their opinion, this thing is about profits but not profits, and it is about competitiveness but not competitiveness. There is really no need to engage in it!

A low-end mobile phone can make much more money than a TV!

No matter how much we play in this ecology, it shouldn’t be played like this, right?
"You people! You are so short-sighted!"

"What I said before, you have forgotten that ecology is the core principle for our survival! TV does not make money, but you have to know that things like TV will stay in every family for a long time. The long time may be as short as 3 years or as long as 10 years!”

“Over such a long period of time, customers’ usage viscosity has been very high, which is very conducive to our ecological implantation!”

“Remember, what we want to do cannot be an ordinary TV, what we want to do is a Hillhouse smart screen embedded in the Hillhouse ecosystem!”

Gao Huaijun seemed not to notice the doubts of the executives below and explained with a smile.

“Hillhouse Smart Screen?!”

After hearing Gao Huaijun's words, the pupils of the group of executives below suddenly shrank unconsciously, and they all looked at each other.

Their eyes confirmed that this was not something they knew!
"Yes, this is the sketch I have planned. You can take it and take a look! As before, don't forget to apply for a patent."

"Remember! The products you are making now are not just for first-hand purchase and sale. More importantly, we need customers to generate repeat purchases!"

"Mr. Min, when you are developing this Hillhouse smart screen, you need to be very public about this aspect!"

After Gao Huaijun asked Shang Yayan to take out a confidential document from his special filing cabinet, he hurriedly left the conference room.

Everyone at the scene was attracted by the sketch in front of them, and they did not notice Gao Huaijun leaving.

What Gao Huaijun just said actually put pressure on them.

Lingxiao Technology has only been established for more than a year, but it has surpassed their group of veterans who have been working for more than 4 years.

You said, you are them, do you feel any pressure?

Performance is the proof of everything!

Without performance, everything is in vain.

At this time, several of them were already attracted by the sketch in front of them and could not move their eyes away. They did not notice Gao Huaijun's departure.

"How is this possible!"

"TV is not just about watching TV? It can also be deeply connected to your mobile phone! You can even connect to WiFi to watch more variety shows and entertainment content!"

"Its connection with the mobile phone is more than that. It requires loading into the built-in memory, including built-in content such as movies, TV series, variety shows, sports, games, etc. Good guy, this is going to replace TV stations and game consoles, right?"

At first, everyone disagreed, thinking that Gao Huaijun's idea was just to create a more beautiful TV with a higher appearance.

As for ecological construction.

At most, it's just like a video recorder, just put some movies in it and that's it.

In fact, other TV manufacturers also have this idea.

However, Gao Huaijun actually used a small TV to play with tricks and did not take the usual path.

At first everyone didn’t take it seriously, but then the more they watched, the more shocked they became!
The design of this TV is extremely minimalist, very characteristic of Hillhouse Technology. It looks completely different in style and appearance from the boxy TVs of 09, and it looks very textured.

And, most importantly, the screen is actually as high as 47 inches!
This is really bold, you know, the price of this screen is more than half the cost of the TV!
The sympathetic connection with mobile phones makes it possible for mobile phones with too small screens to be extended to TVs, which is equivalent to tapping a larger group of potential customers for mate4 mobile phones.

Let the sales potential of this product be further stimulated.

At the same time, the introduction of the concept of built-in memory has completely subverted and reset the TV industry, which can definitely attract the attention of a large number of young people.

And this group of people will be the core customer group of Mate 4 mobile phones!
Ecological!
This is ecology!
