Rebirth 1984: Starting from the development of Hanka

Chapter 65 Bodyguard
As soon as the press conference ended, Wujiang became very busy.

Major computer manufacturers at home and abroad have come to discuss cooperation.

The media also sent reporters to interview, wanting to know the story behind the Imagine motherboard.

In short, Wujiang Company is once again popular in China, but this circle is a little smaller. After reading the news reports, ordinary people just smile with relief and don’t really understand what a motherboard is. But for computer practitioners, Wujiang Company has undoubtedly realized it again. An astonishing feat.

"Boss, the 3 Imagine motherboards we prepared in advance are all sold out!!!" At this time, Liu Yinyin hurried into Zhao Ye's office and said loudly, out of breath, her bulging chest seemed to burst Generally speaking, from Zhao Ye's perspective, it seems that he can still see a large area of ​​snow.

"Don't worry, take a break. I know about this, it seems that Imagine motherboards are very popular."

Zhao Ye smiled and poured a glass of water for the secretary.

"Boss, do you want to inform the factory to expand production quickly?" Liu Yinyin suggested in a low voice after drinking her saliva.

On the other side of the factory, 3000 Imagine motherboards are produced every day, and they work overtime. There is no problem in producing 5000 motherboards a day. If the technology is skilled, the output will increase.

"No need." Zhao Ye waved his hand, not planning to expand production blindly.

The annual output of Imagine motherboards exceeds 100 million pieces.

Domestic motherboard sales are estimated to be only [-] to [-] pieces a year.

It is a miracle and unimaginable that foreign countries can sell 100 million motherboards.

As a matter of fact, Zhao Ye was quite satisfied with selling 40 million Imagine motherboards.

Right now, there is basically no motherboard that can compare to the Imagine motherboard, so the price of the Imagine motherboard is very expensive.

The price of a computer has now dropped to about 1.5.

The Imagine motherboard of Wujiang Company sells for 3000 yuan, isn't it too much?
In 1985, 1 US dollar could be exchanged for 2.9366 yuan.

The price of the Imagine motherboard in the United States is US$999, which is almost 3000 RMB. Because of the tariffs, Wujiang seems to be earning less.But in fact, the export earns foreign exchange, the state has subsidies, and the profit of the Imagine motherboard is higher than that in China.

It's not that they don't want to sell more expensive ones. No matter how expensive they are, Americans must be willing to buy them.

Right now, the price of high-end products in an IBM-PC is only three or four thousand dollars in the United States.

The Intel chip was only $[-].

As a top-level motherboard, the Imagine motherboard can be sold for $999, which is close enough to the nature of capitalists.

Generally speaking, high-end machines can build a company's reputation, so even if the price of Imagine is so high, many PC manufacturers are still willing to pay for it.

If IBM bought it, but HP didn't buy it, would HP still want to compete with IBM-PC?Will it leave the outside world with the impression that HP is a low-end PC brand?
The same is true for the same reason, which led to Imagine motherboards forcing those big manufacturers in the United States to rush to buy them.

……

A few days later, the Imagine motherboards were shipped all over the country.

Domestic PC manufacturers are fast, and every second counts.As soon as the goods arrive, workers will be arranged to assemble them immediately.

Since the Imagine motherboard is compatible with IBM-PC, most of the common electronic components on the market can be installed on it.

5 month 25 number.

The first computer with Imagine motherboard installed in China was sold.

As the saying goes, "The wool comes from the sheep." If the Imagine motherboards are expensive, PC manufacturers will naturally increase their prices.

Originally, the price of microcomputers in China had been reduced to 1.5 yuan, but the price of computers equipped with Imagine motherboards was directly raised to 2 yuan by unscrupulous businessmen. This brutal method of cutting leeks has actually made many people happy.

Zhao Ye, a young capitalist, would probably cry when he saw him.

Shenzhen Huaqiangbei Electronics Market.

"How do you sell this computer?"

"2 yuan!"

"Lesbians, don't fool me. What kind of assembly machine computer can sell for 2 yuan? Isn't it 5000 yuan before? Now it has increased by 5000 yuan!!" Wang Xiaoba looked at it indignantly. Looking at the saleswoman in front of her, although she is beautiful, she is not kind at all in doing business.

Wang Xiaoba works in the planning bureau, has learned the Imagine typewriter, and barely understands computer technology. Recently, the unit needs to purchase a batch of computers, so the task is entrusted to him.

He originally thought that the assembly machine computer would only cost 2 yuan, but unexpectedly, the assembly machine was sold for [-] yuan!

Must be the saleswoman trying to kill herself?no way!

It's not that I haven't inquired about the price of the assembled machine before, how could I be cheated?
The saleswoman explained slowly at this time: "The reason why it is so expensive is because our product uses the world's top motherboard, which is a high-end product!"

"What is the world's top motherboard, what high-end products, what a lie! With my IQ, can I be deceived by you? These rhetoric are just a set of rhetoric of you salesmen. You give me a real price, [-] Sell ​​or not?!" Wang Xiaoba pouted.

The salesman shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Sir, I really didn't lie to you. This computer uses the Imagine motherboard developed by Wujiang Company. A few days ago, Wujiang Company also developed a press conference and released the Imagine motherboard. At that time, many foreigners rushed to The rush to buy Imagine motherboards, even the person in charge of IBM, the overlord of the computer industry, said it was good! Our company also managed to grab a batch of Imagine motherboards!"

Wang Xiaoba is a loyal user of the Imagine typewriter. When he heard that the motherboard was also developed by Wujiang Company, he was in awe, and secretly said, "Wujiang Company deserves to be the most famous technology company in China, it is amazing!"

Immediately, Wang Xiaoba hurriedly asked what is so great about the Imagine motherboard.

The saleswoman had already memorized the data of the Imagine motherboard by heart, and she immediately introduced the Imagine motherboard to Wang Xiaoba in detail.

Half an hour later, Wang Xiaoba walked out of the store with the order receipt.

It smells really good... (It's the assembled computer with Imagine motherboard, it smells really good, not the saleswoman. Readers, don't get me wrong, let me declare in advance)
There are many people similar to Wang Xiaoba all over the country.

All in all, computers with Imagine motherboards are selling well.

Ordinary people have no money, but work units have money, so of course they have to buy good and expensive things.

……

At this time, the major motherboard manufacturers who heard about the Imagine motherboard felt panicked.

Then I got the Imagine motherboard for the first time, and conducted various tests and researches on it.

As a result, everyone found that the Imagine motherboard is much stronger than its own motherboard.

Formosa MSI Technology Co., Ltd.

Xu Xiang, Huang Jinqing, Lin Wentong, You Xianneng, and Lu Qilong looked at each other, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy.

"Why don't we change direction? Don't develop computer motherboards anymore?" Lin Wentong tentatively said to everyone.

Xu Xiang glared at Lin Wentong and said, "If we don't develop computer motherboards, then all our previous efforts will be in vain?"

Lin Wentong frowned and said dejectedly: "But the computer motherboard we developed can't completely compete with the Imagine motherboard. If these two products are placed in the market to compete, it is tantamount to an egg hitting a stone. We are the egg and others are the stone."

When the other four heard the words, they all had sad faces.

MSI Technology Company actually has a trend of "starting a business before it is half-way and collapsed in the middle".

Zhao Ye never expected that the emergence of the Imagine motherboard almost killed MSI, one of the three major motherboards in the previous life...

In early June, the competition in the domestic Hanka market became more intense.

Because since 1985, several Chinese card brands have appeared in China.

The price of Hanka dropped again and again.

So far, the retail price of Imagine Hanka 2.0 has dropped to 3500 yuan, and the price will drop even after a while.

Wang Anshi, director of the marketing department, has returned to China to take charge of the overall situation at this time, but in the face of increasingly fierce competition in the Hanka market, he has no good solution. Fortunately, Imagine Hanka 2.0 still accounts for more than 65% of the market share.

He thought about integrating the Hanka function into the Imagine motherboard, but soon, he felt that it was unnecessary.

Because the operating system being developed by Wujiang will support Chinese, Hanka will definitely be useless in the future.

Therefore, Wang Anshi also gave up the hope of saving Hanka, and will follow the market in the future. Everyone likes to fight price wars, so let's fight.

Hanka's status in Wujiang is getting lower and lower, and its revenue accounts for less and less, only about 8%.

The most profitable products are the Imagine Chinese-English electronic typewriter and digital BB machine, but the Imagine motherboard is also expected to become one of the company's top products.

……

……

Right now, the Imagine game console is still under development, but Zhao Ye has already decided to go to RB, otherwise there is not enough time.And he has to go to Hong Kong first, and then fly to RB from Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong travel permit and RB visa have already been processed, and Zhao Ye can be ready to go at any time.

But before going to Hong Kong, security issues are worth noting.

He is now a rich man worth over [-] million anyway, what if he is kidnapped in Hong Kong?
So, he must hire bodyguards now!
Zhao Ye was deeply impressed by Li Lianjie's "The Bodyguard of Zhongbeihai". The bodyguards who serve as bodyguards for the leaders are relatively excellent in all aspects.

"Secretary Li, hello, can you contact me, is there anyone who works as a security guard in 'Zhongbeihai' willing to be my bodyguard? I can hire them at a high price, with a monthly salary of 1000 yuan and a bonus at the end of the year!" Zhao Ye Then pick up the phone.Although he couldn't find a very powerful bodyguard himself, he was sure that as long as he had this request, the country should help arrange it.

Asking the state to help solve security problems is just a stopgap measure.

Zhao Ye still prefers the bodyguards he trained himself.Because he was really not sure whether the bodyguards arranged for him were actually monitoring him.

Zhao Ye looking for a bodyguard? ?Secretary Li's eyes lit up, this is a good thing.

"No problem, it's a trivial matter, I'll send someone to help you to ask right away."

"Then thank you Secretary Li!"

"Serving the people is a matter of course! Besides, Zhao Ye's personal safety is also very important. If something happens to you, it will be a big loss to the country! Don't worry, I will definitely help you find some people this time." Very good bodyguard."

Hearing this, Zhao Ye was expecting in his heart, it would be best to have a few soldier kings, then it would be a fortress...
