"Chen Yu, I don't know what you're going to do, but since you've decided, I can help you make an appointment with both of you. However, whether you can convince ASUS and Acer depends on your ability. ”

"Thank you. ”

The next day, under the introduction of Wang Xuehong, Chen Yu's first appointment was Shi Congtang, chairman of ASUS.

Before meeting Chen Yu, Shi Congtang was also very interested in Chen Yu.

However, after Chen Yu and Shi Congtang met, when it came to the PC operating system, Shi Congtang shook his head directly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, we at ASUS have never considered this. ”

"Now you can think about it. ”

"I don't think so. ”

"Mr. Shi, I know that you have cooperated with Microsoft, but do you think Microsoft can always monopolize the entire market?"

"Philosophically, everything has a life and death, and the same goes for companies, and Microsoft has a day to die. Microsoft can monopolize the world, and there will also be a day when it can't monopolize the world. However, I haven't seen any of this yet. Also, I don't think you guys can challenge Microsoft, even though you've done a good job. ”

"Not necessarily. ”

"Mr. Chen, if you see me for this matter, then I'm sorry, this matter basically has nothing to talk about. However, if there are other areas of cooperation, I think it can be discussed in detail. Of course, I won't tell anyone what you asked me to talk about. ”

Pity.

On the first day of meeting, Chen Yu hit a nail.

Although Chen Yu would love to fight Microsoft, it is clear that ASUS does not want to.

However, Chen Yu was not discouraged.

If he says this, these traditional PC bigwigs will follow suit, then Microsoft's alliance is too bad.

The next day, Chen Yu met Shi Zhenrong, the founder of Acer.

As the world's third-largest notebook and computer manufacturer, Acer has played a key role in building the system ecosystem.

Drawing on the experience of Shi Congtang with ASUS, Chen Yu did not directly talk about the problem of the PC operating system when he met Shi Zhenrong this time.

Instead, he directly threw out Alipay and prepared to cooperate with Acer.

"Paypass, is Mr. Chen really willing?"

For Chen Yu's arrival, Shi Zhenrong was also extremely interested.

In particular, Huanyu Technology's series of innovations in the electronics industry are all unknown to Acer.

For example, the launch of netbooks and game laptops in the PC area are all genius-level ideas.

It is precisely by virtue of such creativity that Huanyu Technology, an enterprise that does not have much hardware experience, has broken into the PC field.

I have to say, it's a miracle.

You must know that at the beginning of their Acer, they all started from a small workshop.

In just a few years, Huanyu Technology has already achieved the market that they have been doing for decades.

"There is nothing to be reluctant to, Alipay is a third-party payment tool, and the more people use it, the better it will be for us. If we only use it for ourselves and don't choose to open it, sooner or later our competitors will launch a third-party payment tool similar to ours, which is also not good for us. ”

"Mr. Chen really has a broad vision. ”

Shi Zhenrong said admiringly.

It is normal for young people to have courage, ideas, and innovation.

Young people have such a long-term vision, which is not something that ordinary young people can be afraid of.

Shi Zhenrong has seen a lot of geniuses, and some of these geniuses are no worse than Chen Yu in terms of courage and innovation.

But in terms of vision, mind and bearing, they are far inferior to Chen Yu.

They feel that they can do the whole world by themselves.

Pity.

The world is diverse, and the world is too complex.

You can't do it on your own.

"Mr. Shi has won the award, compared to you, we are just juniors, where is the vision. ”

"Mr. Chen is modest. However, as soon as Mr. Chen came, he gave us a big gift, but I was in vain. ”

Although Shi Zhenrong wants to cooperate with Alipay, Shi Zhenrong has been in the business for decades, so he naturally knows that this is definitely not so simple.

"It's not a big gift, the reason why I want to express a little heart, I just want to cooperate with Acer to launch a new product. ”

"New products, Mr. Chen, I am very interested in the new products you mentioned. ”

While speaking, Shi Zhenrong said again: "Your netbook before, your game book, is really amazing. Could it be that this time there is a new PC product?"

"Indeed, we intend to develop a PC product called an all-in-one PC. ”

"All-in-one?"

Shi Zhenrong was a little puzzled: "What is an all-in-one machine?"

"It's that the motherboard, components, and screens are all integrated, and there is no need for a chassis, only a monitor. ”

"The idea?"

Although Chen Yu said it relatively simply, he has been making computers for decades, and just thinking about it, Shi Zhenrong already has the framework of this product in his mind.

This is the equivalent of a computer without a host.

But he obviously didn't have a host, but stored all kinds of components in the host into the display package.

It's a bit like a notebook, but it's not a notebook.

He has a monitor on a traditional PC computer and can also have a keyboard, but he doesn't need a console.

Judging from the display package cover, they have a lot of space to lay out all kinds of components.

"Mr. Chen, you are here to stir up the PC market again!"

Staring at Chen Yu, Shi Zhenrong really admired.

First there were netbooks, then game books, and now all-in-one consoles.

Not to mention three products, even if it is one of them, a series of manufacturers around the world can't think of it.

But now, three innovative products have emerged from Huanyu Technology.

Don't look at this as a simple idea, but such a simple idea, he has tens of millions of sales.

Or you would say.

There are desktops, what do you want such an all-in-one machine without a chassis?

Obviously, an all-in-one without a chassis will definitely outperform a regular desktop.

But it doesn't matter.

Importantly, many people don't actually buy a computer that even uses 10% of its performance.

This is also the reason why many people buy netbooks.

No matter how bad the netbook performance is, they don't care because they meet the needs of the user.

Although the performance of the all-in-one is not particularly high, basically most of the functions are supported.

He's certainly better than a netbook.

Furthermore.

Because there is no host, and there is no need for too awesome performance, the price of the all-in-one machine can also make many consumers excited.

Plus, it's more convenient than a traditional PC desktop, isn't it?

It's just that although he admires it in his heart, Shi Zhenrong said again: "Mr. Chen, you have acquired Shenzhou, and you have done a good job in OEM yourself, you can launch an all-in-one machine by yourself, and it seems that there is no need to cooperate with us Acer." ”

Don't look at this as a cooperation, but such a cooperation gives Acer a chance to strike first.

Huanyu Technology has broken into the PC field with its first-mover advantage.

Acer, as a global PC company, if they have a first-mover advantage, they will directly sell to the global market.

Such a gift is no longer a concept of Alipay cooperation.

"Mr. Shi smiled, although we have our own foundry platform, and our R&D strength is also good, and our performance in the domestic market is okay, but we are much weaker in the global market. ”

"Understood. ”

Shi Zhenrong nodded.

If you cooperate with them Acer, this is definitely an opportunity for Huanyu Technology to enter the PC global opportunity.

"Mr. Shi, this is our design plan, you can refer to it. ”

"Thank you. ”

Actually, there is no need.

Chen Yu is just a little, and Shi Zhenrong already has an idea.

As long as there is this idea, Shi Zhenrong can turn this idea into a product.

So if you don't look at the design drawings given by Chen Yu, there is actually nothing.

However, when he saw Chen Yu's design plan, Shi Zhenrong was a little surprised: "Mr. Chen, such a plan?"

In Shi Zhenrong's mind, he thought that Chen Yu's design was similar to the idea in his mind.

The so-called all-in-one machine is nothing more than the integration of various electronic components in the display.

In other words, the all-in-one computer they want to build has the appearance of a traditional PC computer monitor.

But the design given by Chen Yu, although the plan given by Chen Yu is only a display.

But Chen Yu's display design, in one sentence, is really beautiful.

Not only beautiful, but also has a strong sense of technology.

Just at a glance, not to mention the performance and demand, even if it is for the appearance, there is also a strong desire to buy.

"Admire, Mr. Chen, I admire you. ”

Giving Chen Yu a thumbs up, Shi Zhenrong said: "I finally understand, you Huanyu Technology is worthy of your name." ”

Just like this one.

Product innovation is just one of the dots, and they've embed it everywhere.

For example, the appearance is innovative.

This look is not just what the monitor looks like, but also what the keyboard looks like.

Can't computers be prettier?

Does the all-in-one still have to be like the original PC monitor?

Isn't it possible to change the trick?

Although this seems to be easy to understand, the longer he is in this area, the more he will be solidified by the traditional PC thinking.

Just like in everyone's perception, a computer monitor should be like this.

The same should be true for computer keyboards.

Mobile phones do need keyboards, too.

The bowl must also be round.

You simply don't have the idea of going the other way.

Thinking about this, Shi Zhenrong chatted with Chen Yu about Huanyu Technology's pear series.

Isn't the pear series product an extreme in appearance innovation?

However, Chen Yu and Shi Zhenrong have said so much, this is just a warm-up.

His real purpose is not any payment cooperation, nor is it an all-in-one machine cooperation.

"Mr. Shi, I don't know if you are interested in such cooperation?"

"Interested, of course interested, if not interested, then we Acer may not be able to keep up with the times. ”

"However, I have two conditions for working with your company. ”

"Mr. Chen, please speak. ”

"I want the Acer all-in-one to be equipped with our Universal OS. ”

"This ......"

After hesitating for a moment, Shi Zhenrong nodded: "Yes." ”

In the previous netbook business, Acer was equipped with the Universal operating system.

Although Microsoft once objected, the netbook market is not large, and if you take it, you will take it, and they Acer can still withstand the pressure of Microsoft.

As for the all-in-one machine and then using the Huanyu system, this is also understandable.

Although the all-in-one computer is very marketable, it is also a niche market, like netbooks, and it is impossible for him to sell more than traditional PCs

But don't look at this as a niche market, if they give Acer a first-mover advantage, it is also a huge profit.

Therefore, Shi Zhenrong did not refuse the Huanyu system proposed by Chen Yu.

Moreover, he also felt normal.

If not, why should Huanyu Technology cooperate with you?

"What about the second condition?"

There was no problem with the first condition, and then Shi Zhenrong asked about the second condition.

"The second condition, that is, ......"

Looking at Shi Zhenrong, Chen Yu still said: "I hope that Acer has more than 30% of traditional PC computers in the global market, equipped with Huanyu system." ”

"What?"

At this time, Shi Zhenrong finally understood the true purpose of Chen Yu coming to him today.
