Reborn since 1993

Chapter 754 The mountain is not high, but there are immortals who are famous

How much influence can a giant company bring to a city? Although Li Dongling had announced both within Dongling Hi-Tech and in public that Dongling Hi-Tech would not become the Korean Daewoo company.

However, there are still countless people, even domestic media, who often compare Dongling Hi-Tech with Daewoo.

More importantly, Daewoo brought a large number of jobs and tax revenue to Korea, and it can even be said that it led the export of Korea's automobile industry, allowing Korean cars to go abroad and start earning foreign exchange.

As for Dongling Hi-Tech, there is no need to mention it. If you take a trip to the commercial and medium-sized cities around Pingyang, and then come to Pingyang where various landmark buildings are constantly rising, asphalt roads are paved throughout the main urban area, and modern residential communities are constantly being built, no one would have thought that just a few years ago, the two cities looked the same!

In the case of Du Qishan, when the news came out that she became Li Dongling's assistant, her old classmates wanted to get in touch with her to see if there was a chance to cooperate with Dongling Hi-Tech.

As for what China Merchants Group, Du Qishan’s hometown, wants, it goes without saying. Now, is there any place in the country that doesn’t want investment from Dongling Hi-Tech?

In recent years, the investment promotion bureaus in various parts of the country have been working hard to attract investment every year. Any foreign company from Hong Kong, Taiwan, America or old Europe will be supported.

Investments like the ones mentioned above were certainly very popular in the past, and places across the country would compete to seek investment from each other.

But now, when Dongling Hi-Tech has demonstrated its influence, those parts suppliers who have been relying on Dongling Hi-Tech, such as BYD, BOE, and Hanxi New Materials, have also stood up.

Various parts of the country have discovered that as long as the companies within their jurisdiction can be brought into the ranks of Dongling Hi-Tech's parts suppliers, orders will come in like a flood.

If a local company can become a supplier of Dongling Hi-Tech, not only will it gain jobs and tax revenue, but it will also have the opportunity to go public!
How could various parts of the country not be tempted by this? Naturally, they tried their best to send their own companies to cling to Dongling Hi-Tech's big leg. There were even local municipal government departments that directly approached Dongling Hi-Tech for matchmaking.

The China Merchants Group in Du Qishan's hometown also noticed this. Du Qishan is Li Dongling's assistant. If she speaks a few good words for her hometown company, would there be a chance to bring Du Qishan's hometown company into the Dongling Hi-Tech Company's camp?

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, the people in Du Qishan’s hometown think so anyway, and for this reason they even increased the treatment of the Du family in the local area.

Du Qishan was quite speechless about this. She was just a small assistant and had joined Dongling Hi-Tech for less than a year. How much say did she have? Moreover, was she qualified to have a say in deciding the list of suppliers in Dongling Hi-Tech's parts industry chain?
But no matter what, the Du family has experienced what it feels like when one person succeeds and the whole family benefits.

Shen Xingyao, who was standing by, might not have felt as big a change as Du Qishan, but his status among his old classmates and relatives and friends of the Shen family must have changed!

"Assistant Du, let's deal with the matters that Mr. Li has asked us to deal with separately. You go and notify..."

After looking at Du Qishan, Shen Xingyao stopped here. This was the first time they appeared in public as Li Dongling's assistants to let the outside world know about their existence. Although they were both assistants, the influence of the latter two within Dongling Hi-Tech could not be the same.

However, although in his heart, Shen Xingyao regarded the other party as an opponent, he did not want to make the relationship awkward. The two of them were responsible for notifying various suppliers, which were divided into software and hardware suppliers.

Now is still the era of hardware suppliers, and software is not taken so seriously. This time, between Shen Xingyao and Du Qishan, whoever contacts the hardware suppliers of Shenzhou Computer will definitely have more say when facing those companies in the future.

Shen Xingyao naturally wanted to contact the hardware supplier of Shenzhou Computer, but it was not easy for him to say this directly in front of Du Qishan.

"I'll notify Kingsoft, Kingdee and other software companies. As for the hardware suppliers, I'll leave it to Assistant Shen!"

Shen Xingyao was obviously surprised. He didn't expect that Du Qishan would say it directly.

After taking a look at Du Qishan with short hair, Shen Xingyao nodded in agreement even though he didn't understand why she was like that.

Du Qishan looked at Shen Xingyao's departing back and smoothed her short hair. Her choice to deal with the software supplier was not without purpose.

Since being appointed as Li Dongling's assistant, Du Qishan has had more authority. She can look through Dongling Hi-Tech's previous documents. This is also for their sake, so that they can handle the matters entrusted by Li Dongling. They can't be ignorant of everything.

Those things were stored in the data room. They were boring and tedious. Most people didn't want to look at them, but Du Qishan was different. She had been reading some of the most important documents of Dongling Hi-Tech in the past year, especially those signed by Li Dongling himself.

Through those documents, Du Qishan was able to conclude that in the past year, Dongling Hi-Tech's main business was, of course, the hardware business. However, Li Dongling's attitude towards the software industry made Du Qishan think of a word: regardless of the cost!
Li Dongling has invested large sums of money in supporting Tianya Company, Xishanju, Kingsoft, and Hanxi IT Software Training Center, although the scale of the investment is not as large as the money invested in hardware research and development.

But if calculated based on the proportion, the amount of money Li Dongling has spent on these software businesses is already quite astonishing!

Du Qishan could also vaguely glimpse some of Li Dongling's thoughts from these documents, and knew Li Dongling's attitude towards the software business. At this time, the software business was insignificant in Dongling Hi-Tech, but it might not be so in the future. If he could help to develop the software business, it would definitely be a great achievement.

……

Li Dongling, who was still swinging his pen to sign, had no idea that just picking two assistants to help him handle affairs would cause so much trouble.

He never imagined that Du Qishan and Shen Xingyao could interpret so many meanings from his words.

This is just like doing Chinese reading comprehension. Everyone has their own answer. Even if we pull out Mo Yan, Yu Hua and others and ask them to do comprehension questions based on the articles they wrote, I'm afraid the final score will not be as good as the answers given by the candidates, which are more in line with the textbook answers.

In the afternoon, Li Dongling met Ed Fliess who had rushed over from the provincial capital of Hanxi at the Dongling Hi-Tech headquarters. Unlike before, Ed Fliess now looked more high-spirited.

Until now, Ed Fries can still remember the scene when he returned to Microsoft headquarters in Seattle from New York, which was surrounded by flowers and songs of praise. At the banquet, Bill Gates, Microsoft board members and various executives raised their glasses to Ed.

Seeing the Dongling Hi-Tech headquarters again, Ed Fleiss's mood was completely different from before. He now vaguely understood the meaning of the saying, "A mountain is famous not because of its height but because of the presence of immortals."

The headquarters of Dongling Hi-Tech is not shabby or old at all. It is simply the best headquarters of a technology company in the world!
"Ed, it looks like you're doing well over there in America!"

Before the Microsoft team brought by Ed Fleiss met with Dongling Hi-Tech, Ed Fleiss met with Li Dongling first.

In fact, what can really be decided is now, and nothing can be discussed at the meeting.

The saying goes that big matters are handled in small meetings, and small matters are handled in big meetings. In fact, the only meetings that can really make decisions are small meetings of two or three people. Because when there are too many people, once disagreements begin to arise, there will definitely be endless quarrels, and the meeting will end in a bad mood. It is impossible to reach a conclusion at all.

As for the cooperation between Dongling Hi-Tech and Microsoft, the people who can decide this matter are actually the senior executives of both sides. If Li Dongling and Bill Gates do not agree, no matter how long the people below talk about it, there will be no result!

Hearing Li Dongling's words, Ed Fleiss laughed, "President Bill Gates and the Microsoft board of directors are very satisfied with this cooperative stargazing project!"

How can they not be satisfied? Microsoft’s stock price is setting new historical highs every day, and its market value is increasing every day. It would be strange if Microsoft’s board of directors was not happy.

"Li, the Microsoft board of directors has decided to upgrade the level of cooperation with Dongling Hi-Tech. In addition, the Microsoft system will put Dongxin Semiconductor's Tianji chip on the same level as Intel and AMD!
In the future, when Microsoft releases new systems, new Office and other office software, they will also be upgraded and optimized on the Tianji chip! "

Right from the start, Ed Fleiss told Li Dongling about the olive branch extended by Microsoft. This was actually Microsoft's response to the hot sales of the star-gazing machine.

If the sales of Stargazing had not reached the current level and the popularity had not been so high that Microsoft's stock price continued to soar, Microsoft would never have placed Donxin on the same level of cooperation as Intel, even verbally.

No matter whether Microsoft can do what it promised or not, at least it has said it. Even if it is just for show, its attitude has been expressed!

"I think Microsoft will not regret this decision!"

Li Dongling said to Ed Fleiss that regardless of how much support Microsoft has for the Tianji chip, as long as they are willing to cooperate and optimize the system and software based on the Tianji chip of Shenzhou Computer and Dongxin, that would be enough.

"However, the current production capacity of Stargazing is too low and cannot satisfy the market at all!"

Ed Fliess also complained to Li Dongling, but when he mentioned stargazing, he couldn't help but smile.

“I’m sorry Lee, you didn’t see how popular stargazing is in America!

Countless housewives and middle-class families in America are now scrambling to watch the stars! "

Li Dongling listened to Ed Fries's praise of stargazing. In fact, Zhou Hualiang also reported to Li Dongling about the buying spree caused by stargazing in America.

I have to say that Lei Jun’s monkey tricks, no, it’s the hunger marketing that really controls people’s hearts!
