Reborn since 1993

Chapter 776 Script Exchange
Judging from previous domestic computer shipments, although Lenovo has become the number one brand in domestic shipments, the pricing power in the computer industry is still in the hands of overseas computer brands.

There is no other reason, because all the core components are provided by foreign countries. If the pricing power is not in the hands of overseas companies, who else can it be in the hands of?

High-tech products should not be sold at a very low price, but the current price of computers in China is higher than that in America, old Europe, Japan and other places. However, the domestic income level is much lower than that of overseas users.

This kind of pricing is obviously problematic. If brands such as Lenovo, Great Wall, and Inspur have really localized their computers as they advertise, then domestic computer prices would have been lowered long ago, and there would have been no need for Shenzhou computers to fire the first shot.

What's more, Shenzhou Computer has not really started a price war yet. If some computer brands really want to fight a price war with Shenzhou Computer to the death, Dongling Hi-Tech will definitely fight to the end to see who can't hold on first!
If computer prices go low, Dongling Hi-Tech will suffer losses, but Dongling Hi-Tech still has a base in other fields and its health is strong enough. Even if its computer business suffers losses, Dongling Hi-Tech will definitely not collapse. The most it can do is tighten its belt.

At worst, we can crush all other competitors and then slowly raise the price.

But there is no guarantee that other computer brands can survive after the price cuts, unless their health bar is as strong as Dongling Hi-Tech's, and they are supported by a number of businesses such as Shenzhou digital cordless phones, Xiaolingtong mobile phones, Shenzhou USB flash drives, and Feiyan Technology.

When Feng Miaoyu heard Li Dongling asking Shenzhou Computer to accept the price war and what other domestic computer manufacturers could do to Shenzhou Computer, she fell silent.

Only Li Dongling could say this. As the only brand with domestically produced core components, Shenzhou Computer has the confidence to say this. Other domestic computer manufacturers have to rely on Intel and other manufacturers. If they want to engage in price wars, they must get the consent of those component suppliers.

“Besides, there will be progress only if there is competition. Shenzhou Computer also hopes to progress together with other computer brands. Only in this way can domestic computer brands gain pricing power in the domestic computer industry and go abroad as soon as possible and achieve international success!
After all, one person's opinion is not acceptable. Only when users all over the world use domestic computer brands can we be considered successful! "

Li Dongling came up with a high-sounding reason. Even if Shenzhou Computer really started a price war one day, it could be called a price war. It should be called common progress.

Shenzhou Computer is preparing for domestic computers to enter overseas markets and go global. Who can say that Shenzhou Computer is doing something wrong? !
"So, Mr. Li, do you think that one day domestic computers will go abroad?" Feng Miaoyu asked, listening to Li Dongling's hidden meaning.

Although Dongling Hi-Tech is performing somewhat strongly at the moment, to be honest, it is only struggling domestically. It is still a long way to go before it can go overseas.

The domestic computer market is still the "backyard" of overseas computer brands. Major foreign computer brands continue to dump their various inventories and unsold machines into the domestic market.

“I believe there will be a day when even if domestic brands have trouble going overseas, 85% or even more than 90% of the world’s computer production capacity may come from China!”

Li Dongling gave a prediction that shocked Feng Miaoyu and the Yanjing Business Daily present.

Computers currently still need to be imported from inland areas. Is it okay for them to produce 80% or even 90% of the world's computer production capacity in the next year?

This prediction was really shocking. The reporter from Yanjing Business Daily who was responsible for recording this interview started shaking in her hands when she wrote this. She wondered if she had heard it wrongly. This kind of thing was no joke.

"But I hope that when that day comes, foreign countries like America and old Europe will also allow domestic brands to enter their markets, just like China allows foreign brands to enter the mainland market today!"

After hearing these words, Feng Miaoyu was sure that Li Dongling was not joking, but she was still puzzled in her heart. She didn't know what Li Dongling meant by these words with a hint of sarcasm.

Not to mention Feng Miaoyu, if you pick any random person on the street now, whether they are domestic users or American users, they would never have thought that in more than 20 years, the five major gangsters of the United Nations would actually swap the script.

One day, a rabbit shouted to the old rogue America, "Eagle, open the door quickly, Daddy!" No, we need to open the country's door. We cannot close the country and engage in trade protectionism.

America is shouting that it wants to revive industrialization, but there are only a few steel mills closed, and it still needs Japan's Benzene Steel Plant to take over.

On the other side, the old empire, the former empire on which the sun never sets, used the navy's funds to start building gardens and even railways, and they still needed Japanese people to build them...

Today's interview has come to an end. It is impossible to interview Li Dongling in an hour-long interview.

This exclusive interview with Yanjing Business Daily is based on the theme of Shenzhou Computer, and it is definitely necessary to interview Chen Tao, the chief designer of Shenzhou Computer, and other senior executives of Dongling Hi-Tech.

After taking a look at the questions she had prepared, Feng Miaoyu asked the last question of the day, "Mr. Li, what are your expectations for Shenzhou Computer today?"

This question is basically just a polite response, or in other words, it is just a way of praising the Shenzhou computer. It is a common routine.

But Li Dongling did not follow the routine, but gave an alternative answer, "Live!"

"The future may be bright, but the road will be tortuous. For Shenzhou and Dongling Hi-Tech, the most important thing is always to survive.

Hopefully, by next year, both Shenzhou’s friends and opponents will be able to survive!”

Hearing this unexpected answer, Feng Miaoyu couldn't help but be dazed for a moment. This was not the first time she heard Li Dongling mention that they had to survive first.

If Dongling Hi-Tech, which makes a fortune every day, is shouting that it wants to survive, then what about the other companies? Wouldn't this world be in chaos and dark?

"Yanjing Business Daily will report what Mr. Li said!" Feng Miaoyu said. Regardless of whether it was the wolf or not, Li Dongling had already shouted many times. As for whether anyone listened, no one knew.

……

The Cultural Department of Yanjing, at that time, had not yet merged with the Tourism Department and became one of the most powerful functional units in Yanjing.

As for the Cultural Market Department, it was certainly not as powerful as it is in later generations. The current director of the Cultural Market Department is Li Wei, who has the same surname as Li.

Compared with directors of other departments who have constant activities and invitations every day, Director Li Wei has a rather cold feeling. Those who are ambitious or have good connections most want to go to economic and trade, development and reform and other departments, and will not come here.

"Li Si!"

After drinking the last cup of tea and checking the time, Li Wei was about to finish his work for the day. Just as he was about to get up, he saw someone from his company running towards him in a hurry.

"This is the application for the establishment of the Mainland Internet Cafe Association submitted by Lingyun Technology. We hope it can be approved by our Marketing Department!"

"Lingyun Technology?"

Li Wei was stunned for a moment, then he remembered who Lingyun Technology was. Previously, Lingyun Technology obtained the Internet cafe license from the Cultural Market Bureau through the Economic and Trade Commission.

After Lingyun Technology, during this period of time, many companies have contacted the Cultural Market Department through various channels, hoping to obtain Internet cafe licenses.

However, they do not have connections with powerful departments like the Economic and Trade Commission. If they want to get an Internet cafe license, it will take about a year and a half to go through all the procedures. This is when the Cultural Market Department is involved, and there is no deliberate delay.

"In order to adapt to the development of the Internet trend, to welcome the arrival of the Internet era, and to enrich the spiritual and cultural entertainment needs of the people, Internet cafes have a long-term development demand in the mainland!
In order to promote the better development of the industry, it is also necessary to establish an Internet cafe association, which will be guided and supervised by relevant departments..."

As soon as he opened the application, what Li Wei saw was the words that raised the level of the Internet cafe, but Li Wei was not surprised by this style of writing.

"Boss Li, on the ninth page, item seven..."

The person from the Cultural Market Department who delivered the application reminded Li Wei.

The entire application form was very long, and the front part basically contained various rules and regulations. Li Wei directly turned to Article 9 of the application form.

"hiss!"

When he saw the seventh article, Li Wei couldn't help but hiss and uttered, "Lingyun Technology is such a big deal, and the pattern... is also big enough!"

Now in all walks of life in the country, except for those dominated by state-owned enterprises, the rest of the industries do not want the relevant departments to intervene and do not want to have another nagging over their heads.

However, Lingyun Technology did the opposite and took the initiative to invite the Cultural Market Department to intervene in the Internet cafe industry.

Li Wei read the ninth page of the application several times, especially Lingyun Technology's estimate that the number of Internet cafes in China may exceed 100,000 in the future, so it is necessary to establish a mainland Internet Cafe Association to manage the entire industry to avoid chaos in the industry and affect the development of the Internet cafe industry.

Behind this, Internet cafe companies that join the Mainland Internet Cafe Association need to pay a deposit and an annual membership fee.

These membership fees are supervised by the Mainland Internet Cafe Association Management Committee, which is composed of the Cultural Market Department, Police Department, Fire Department and other units, and these funds are "appropriately" allocated and used.

There is a meaning and room for maneuver in this. If Li Wei still doesn't understand it, then he has been hanging around in Yanjing for so many years in vain.

Originally, the Cultural Market Bureau, and even the cultural department, were now low-income offices with a limited amount of funding each year. But now, the Mainland Internet Cafe Association, led by Lingyun Technology, is equivalent to giving the Cultural Market Bureau, and even the cultural department, a small treasury. Does Li Wei want it?

In other words, does he dare not refuse it? If the scale of Internet cafes in China really exceeds tens of thousands, what will the membership fees paid every year be for?
Believe it or not, if Li Wei dares to reject the application of the Mainland Internet Cafe Association today, once the news gets out, not only the other departments of the cultural department will come to him, but even the police station, fire department, Press and Publication Administration and other units will come to him cursing. As the director, he will be promoted to a province in charge of cultural business tomorrow, and he will never be able to come back to Yanjing in this life.

With a bang, Li Wei slammed the table and stood up. "For the development of domestic Internet cafes, the Cultural Market Department has an unshirkable responsibility. I will now apply to the leaders of the department for approval of this application.

You should convey to Lingyun Technology that the Cultural Market Department will always be Lingyun Technology's strong backer. Anyone who obstructs or opposes the establishment of the Mainland Internet Cafe Association is a criminal who hinders the development of domestic cultural undertakings!"

"Also, convert the temporary license of Lingyun Internet Cafe Chain into a formal license. No, tomorrow, I will personally go to Lingyun Internet Cafe Chain with the leaders of the department to inspect it and issue the licenses myself!

All Internet cafe license applications from other domestic companies are suspended. Without my signature, not a single Internet cafe license will be issued!"
