Reborn since 1993

Chapter 763 I'm waiting for skills, what are you waiting for?
Last year, the total domestic computer sales volume was only 2.1 million units. Lenovo, which ranked first in domestic shipments, only sold about 280,000 units in the country, and it has already taken the top spot in the domestic computer industry sales list.

At this time, Li Dongling suddenly shouted out that Shenzhou Computer would achieve an annual shipment volume of one million units. To be honest, it was really earth-shattering.

Because the sales volume is so terrifying, in the domestic market, it is almost three times the shipment volume of last year!
Even though the outside world predicts that the domestic computer industry will explode this year, the growth rate may exceed 30%, and the annual shipment volume may reach 330 million machines.

But even if all of these new machine markets are taken over by Shenzhou Computer, it will still have to snatch a large piece of meat from other brands.

Li Dongling dared to say this, but Shen Xingyao and Du Qishan, who were in charge of recording, were terrified when they heard it.

Seeing the reactions of Shen Xingyao and others, Li Dongling shook his head. It was no wonder that those overseas computer giants looked down on the domestic market. The domestic computer market was really not that big.

You should know that Acer, which ranked seventh among personal computer manufacturers last year and focuses on home desktop computers, also shipped more than four million units a year!

The shipment volume of a single computer company is larger than that of the entire domestic computer market, not to mention Compaq, the global leader in computer shipments, which sells tens of millions of computers a year.

However, the machines sold by Compaq are mainly mass-market models, and they are not expensive. In America, an ordinary Compaq machine costs only about 700 to 800 US dollars, or about 6,000 to 7,000 RMB. But in China, it is transformed into a high-end product, and one machine sells for 10,000 to 20,000 RMB.

Even if the annual shipment volume of Shenzhou computers can really reach one million units, to be honest, it can only be said to be a glimpse of the road when placed overseas, and is far from being able to compete with overseas giants.

“We can’t stop promoting either. Sometimes, a step early or late can make the difference between victory and defeat!”

Li Dongling explained to Ren Yuefeng and others.

What’s the use of trying to get ahead? The horn of this domestic computer war has just been sounded. If those who sit at the table use too much force and run out of bullets early, how can they play later?
……

"The emergence of Shenzhou computers, their performance and price, will usher in a new era for the domestic computer industry!"

The next day, Computer News chose Shenzhou Computer as its cover. The LCD screen and streamlined appearance design made it easy for people who saw Computer News to distinguish Shenzhou Computer from other computers.

"Shenzhou computers are about to be released, and many computer manufacturers have announced adjustments to their computer prices. The order of the domestic computer industry will usher in changes!"

Southern Weekend also reported on Shenzhou Computer, but was somewhat skeptical as to whether Shenzhou Computer could stand out from the siege of Lenovo and other brands of computers.

Domestic media reports on Shenzhou, generally tend to be technology-related newspapers, which all support Shenzhou computers because from a technical analysis, Shenzhou computers are clearly superior to other similar machines.

As for some economic and financial media, they remain neutral, or are not that optimistic about Shenzhou Computer.

After all, in this world, it’s not just about good technology. Sometimes the right time, right place and right people are all essential.

Regardless of outside opinion, after holding the press conference, Dongling Hi-Tech began to produce Shenzhou computers at full capacity and began to launch advertisements on a large scale. These are basically routine operations.

Amidst this commotion, domestically produced machines, represented by Lenovo, were the first to begin selling at reduced prices.

……

"This morning, Lianxiang's sales in the Yanjing market were 149 units. Are you sure?"

The Lianxiang headquarters is busy at the moment. Sales statistics from various regions are constantly reported to the Lianxiang headquarters in Yanjing.

After Guo Wei got the sales statistics, he immediately rushed to Boss Liu's office without stopping.

"Boss Liu, this is the sales volume of the Lianxiang Gemini computer this morning. The current sales volume is 1479 units!"

"Buzz!"

Hearing about the sales volume, several people in Boss Liu's office couldn't help but let out a buzz. The sales volume was really too astonishing.

You should know that last year, Lian Xiang’s average daily sales were only 778 units. But now after the price cut, the sales in the morning are equivalent to twice the sales in one day last year.

"Today's sales volume is likely to exceed 3,000 units per day, right?!"

Hearing this, Boss Liu was both happy and helpless. He was happy that the sales volume hit a record high, but helpless that he lost money for every machine sold.

But at this point, the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back. It is impossible to retreat. Boss Liu said to Guo Wei, Yang Yuanqing and other senior executives, "Continue to increase the promotion efforts. We must not stop. For Lianxiang, we must grab the market now!
This time, Lian Xiang wants to tell the world who is the best computer brand in China! "

Boss Liu had a fierce look on his face. He had prepared himself for losses, huge losses at that. But as long as Shenzhou Computer could be defeated, he thought it would all be worth it!
……

"Don't miss it if you pass by. For only 7899 yuan, you can take a Lianxiang computer home and enjoy multiple gifts!" On the electronics street in Qi Jie's city, various promotional advertisements and music are heard continuously.

But what sounded most irritating to Qi Jie was the store called Fatty Yang's Computer, which was diagonally opposite him.

The sound of the loud speakers never stopped this morning, and the flow of people entering the store opposite was obviously much larger than Qi Jie's. It was obvious that many people were attracted by the Lenovo computers.

"We will deliver the Lianxiang computer to your home at noon today and install it for you!"

Fatty Yang walked out of the store and saw the customers out. His chubby face had eyes that became slits when he smiled, but they were shining brightly.

Lian Xiang computers are already losing money when they are sold at 7899, so the commission given to these salesmen cannot be high.

But the shrewd Fatty Yang didn't make much money from selling computers, so he sold computer accessories such as the mouse separately. Adding installation service fees, he could make hundreds or even thousands of dollars from selling a computer.

For people who buy a computer, they have already spent a lot of money, so they will not be too fussy about the few hundred dollars and usually give it all.

This morning alone, Fatty Yang sold two Lenovo computers and earned nearly 1,500 yuan.

Fatty Yang, who was about to go back to the store to count the money, met Qi Jie's gaze and sneered, as if mocking Qi Jie's short-sightedness.

Fatty Yang knew that Lao Jiang was going to give the batch of Lianxiang machines in his store to Qi Jie, but Qi Jie was afraid that he would not be able to sell them and did not dare to take them, so they ended up in Fatty Yang's hands.

Fatty Yang felt that he had to thank Qi Jie for his short-sightedness, otherwise this opportunity to make a fortune would not have fallen into his hands.

Seeing Fatty Yang leave in a swagger, Qi Jie couldn't help feeling a little regretful, but at this time, regret was useless. He could only pray that Shenzhou Computer could bring some business to his store.

……

"The first-day sales of the Lenovo Gemini computers exceeded 3,100 units, setting a new record in the domestic computer industry!"

When Lianxiang released the sales data of its new computer and it was reprinted by the media, it immediately caused an uproar. The sales of 3,000 machines in a single day really shocked the outside world.

No one expected that Shenzhou held a grand press conference, but the Lianxiang was sold out before Shenzhou even started selling.

On the second day, Lian Xiang once again sold more than 3,700 machines, looking like a hot seller.

On the third day, although the sales volume began to decline, it still sold more than 2,800 machines. In the next two days, the sales volume of Lianxiang machines remained above 2,000 units.

At this time, the media also began to speculate whether it could break the mark of 20,000 machines sold in a single week. If it did, it would truly be history!

Just when Lianxiang was selling well, Wang Jizhi, general manager of Lingyun Technology, came to a building in the HD district of Yanjing.

The sign of this small building was still wrapped in red cloth, and it was obvious that it had not yet opened for business. When Wang Jizhi went there, he saw that it was very busy inside. There was a group of technicians busy debugging computers inside. Everywhere he looked, there were rows of computers.

If you look closely, you will find that the logos on these LCD computer screens are all the logos of Shenzhou Computer!

"Manager Guo, why are you here so early?" Wang Jizhi went over and asked Guo Jingyun, the general manager of Tianya Company who was supervising the work on site.

Seeing Wang Jizhi, Guo Jingyun said helplessly, "Brother Wang, you know the current market situation. The headquarters calls every day to urge us to do this. Who dares to delay this matter?"

Wang Jizhi also nodded, "This Internet cafe is the first store of Lingyun Internet Cafe Chain, and nothing can go wrong!"

What Wang Jizhi, Guo Jingyun and others are working on now is Lingyun Technology’s first Internet cafe, and Tianya Company is here to assist Lingyun Technology.

"Now the machines have been installed. The Lingyun Internet Cafe Management System jointly developed by Tianya Company and Kingsoft has been installed on the machines.

This is the software system that Mr. Li had asked us to develop a long time ago. It can manage recharge, automatic timekeeping, and automatic settlement. Only one person can complete the work of computer recharge, timekeeping, and settlement! "

Guo Jingyun said to Wang Jizhi that this Internet cafe management system was named Lingyun Internet cafe management system. Wang Jizhi was an expert in hardware development, but he was not good at software, so he could only ask Tianya Company for help.

The current Internet cafe management system is a very basic system, but it is sufficient. At least there is no need for one person to specifically calculate the users' Internet time, and it can be further upgraded in the future.

Hearing about the functions of the Internet cafe management system, Wang Jizhi couldn't help but clapped his hands and said, "If this is the case, this Internet cafe with 50 computers can be managed by only five or six people!"
