Chapter 58 Microsoft China
The developer forum is the hero conference of Huaxin Technology.
Wang Anran posted a wide range of heroic posts, targeting not only well-known and unknown software companies in China, but also joint ventures set up by foreign software companies in China.
Wang Anran even sent an email to all software companies he knew through the Internet, inviting him to build a prosperous ecosystem.
This was followed by a disc of the HarmonyOS SP operating system.
At the same time, the image file of the HarmonyOS SP operating system is also synchronously uploaded to the server of the international computing center in the United States, Europe, and island countries.
Huaxin Technology also sent personnel stationed abroad to pay attention to product feedback at all times.
After doing this, Wang Anran devoted himself to the development of graphics cards and 3D engines.
The business of small machines has recovered, and there are more than a dozen stable sales every month, of course, in terms of sales, Wang Anran will not tie himself to Lao Jiang alone, after all, it is definitely unstable to walk on one leg.
Wang Anran wants to set up his own sales department.
However, this matter needs to be entrusted to a professional person, Wang Anran has never done sales in his two lives, even if he is asked to sell a pair of shoes on the street, it is a bit difficult for a strong man.
In all the things, Wang Anran threw all his brains to Xu Chengtao, and even Hao Fugui laughed about it.
"Anran, you are either no one to use, or you will use this person to death. ”
This is very reasonable, but finding a qualified manager is not a matter of one or two days, and in 1994 there was no market for headhunting companies.
For Wang Anran, after a few months, Xu Chengtao's ability is still very recognized, the company's framework, the formation of various departments, and the heads of various departments are all confirmed by the administrative department, and so far, there has not been much mistake.
In order to express his affirmation of Xu Chengtao, Wang Anran transferred Xu Chengtao's salary to three levels.
However, Wang Anran felt that it was still not enough, because Xu Chengtao gave him a brilliant idea.
"Mr. Wang, I have an idea for the follow-up planning of the "What can a computer do?" activity in Qingdao University. ”
Wang Anran took the plan handed over by Xu Chengtao, and while looking at it, Xu Chengtao introduced it on the side.
"Mr. Wang, I analyzed that there are several problems in the organization of this event.
First, the influence is far from enough, and there is a lack of media participation for the Hongmeng SP hype system to promote Huaxin.
Second, for the Hongmeng video system, the ecology cannot be handled by Huaxin Technology, and we need to mobilize more social forces. ”
Wang Anran closed the above copy, just took a cursory look at it, the planning is amazing, he prefers face-to-face introductions to rigid words.
After taking a sip of water, Wang Anran said, "Mr. Xu, continue!"
“…… Mr. Wang, I'm not!"
Wang Anran said with a smile: "Now yes, you are now the deputy general manager of Huaxin Technology, fully responsible for the management of the company, by the way, don't call me Mr. Wang in the future, we are about the same age, you can call me by my name directly!"
“……”
Wang Anran saw Xu Chengtao stunned there, hurriedly stood up, and said, "Chengtao, go on, wait for your introduction!"
"Uh...... Mr. Wang......"
"Call me by name!"
"Wang ...... Mr. Kishiran!"
Wang Anran shook his head and motioned to continue.
"Anran, my plan is to use the TV station to plan a TV program.
The content of the program is to invite domestic software companies, including our Huaxin Technology, as guests.
The person who came up with the idea introduced on the spot that if the idea has market prospects, the two sides reached a consensus on cooperation on the spot, and the company that reached the consensus was responsible for the implementation of investment and product incubation.
There are several advantages to this, first, the influence of HarmonyOS SP software can be expanded through the media, so that more people know that our own country also has its own operating system;
Second, through the TV station, it is also an exposure opportunity for domestic software companies, and I think they will be willing to participate in this program even if it is to promote their own products;
Third, Mr. Wang, e.g., no, Mr. Anran...... An Ran, you said that in the field of IT, ideas are the greatest wealth, and we can launch activities of "what can computers do" under the HarmonyOS SP system through the media and in the whole society! I think that the whole country can definitely find valuable ideas when they mobilize. ”
This show seems familiar, Wang Anran is a little puzzled, how did Xu Chengtao come up with such a wonderful idea.
"Cheng Tao, how did you come up with it? It's a genius idea. ”
Xu Chengtao on the opposite side is rarely twisted at the moment, how can she still look like a strong woman.
Half-bowed his head and said: "I organized a food show on Hong Kong Island, which is equivalent to the promotion of food by enterprises and private restaurant owners, and I think we can learn from Huaxin." ”
Wang Anran nodded and said: "You just said so much, but in order to implement this plan, you must find a TV station with national influence, but is the TV station willing to tailor this program for Huaxin Technology?"
Xu Chengtao said: "Anran, what I like is Anhui Satellite TV, I think I am eighty percent sure!"
"Why?"
"Because Jiang Wanjun is my uncle. ”
No wonder, Jiang Wanjun once served as the director of Anhui Satellite TV, and it should not be too much of a problem to let a front desk director coordinate a TV program, at least it is much safer than recklessly finding a TV station.
Wang Anran does things, likes to be straightforward, and the things that are set will be arranged immediately, and the next day, Xu Chengtao will take a plane to Hefei......
…………
And in Yanjing, the fantasy 586 desktop equipped with the Hongmeng SP operating system was officially released, and what made Liu Chengzhi and Yang Naiqing stunned was that the desktop with the Hongmeng video operating system sold very well, completely exceeding their expectations.
Wang Anran also shook his head when he saw this result.
It sells well, but it's not because users think that the HarmonyOS operating system is good, and the desktop sales of Fantasy Technology are mainly aimed at official purchases and individual users.
For official procurement, two systems are better than one.
For individual users, a desktop computer equipped with HarmonyOS SP operating system alone, but the price of bare metal is more than a thousand cheaper than a desktop computer equipped with a dual system or Windows NT operating system.
This price is very important for most people who are not wealthy.
Wang Anran is now like a student who has just finished the exam, and he is both looking forward to and apprehensive about the feedback from the market.
But then I thought about it, instead of suffering from gains and losses, it is better to do something practical......
……
Three hours after the release of the Fantasy desktop, a brand new Fantasy 586 computer landed at Microsoft's Yenching test center.
Powell, president of China, had a solemn face.
The chief engineer next to him, Karvich, frowned.
"This is a Windows operating system in the true sense of the word, Mr. Powell, and I think that only Windows 95 that Microsoft is developing in the world can catch up with it. ”
Powell stared at the computer in deep thought, shook his head and said: "This is a potential opponent, although his ecology is not perfect, but after a long time, I can guarantee that it will be Microsoft's strongest competitive product." ”
Kalvic nodded in agreement, at least technically, that the other side was on the same level as Microsoft.
"Mr. Powell, as you just said, its flaw is ecology, and perhaps, we can't give it a chance to develop......
Powell's eyes tightened, and he turned his head and asked, "Dr. Kalvic, what do you have to do?"
Karvich replied: "Mr. Powell, I think that an operating system that is not installed on a computer is no different from garbage. ”
"You mean ......?"
Kalvic nodded and said, "I think that when they feel desperate, Microsoft spends a small amount of money, and this operating system has nothing to do with Chinese......"
Powell nodded in agreement and picked up the phone on his desk.
Two minutes later, the office supervisor came to Powell.
"Serena, please help me arrange, I need to meet with Mr. Liu of Fantasy Technology in the fastest time............"
