Chapter 47: That Generation Goes to the Sea

Yanjing, the capital of China, has countless people going to worship every year, and countless people are despondent.

Beipiao, a symbol of prosperity in the Chinese generation.

In fact, if there is anything good about Yanjing, to be honest, it is almost impossible to choose.

Since the 19th century, the sea market has been the largest and most prosperous city in China, and even one of the largest and most prosperous cities in the world. The sea market is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, the sea canal transportation is very convenient, and the development of trade is convenient, so the development of the sea market is reasonable. There is Yangtze River shipping internally and shipping externally.

Speaking of Guangfu, Guangfu has a port, and for thousands of years, it has relied on trade to achieve its own endless lifeline, and it also has unique conditions to develop the economy.

All over the world, those megacities have developed with their own unique advantages. Basically, they are all port-based cities or resource-based cities.

But what about Yanjing? What does it have? This is a question worth pondering.

Yanjing is 150 kilometers away from the Bohai Sea in a straight line, so it is not considered a seaside at all?

If you look at the mineral resources, what kind of mines does Yanjing produce? coal mines, iron ores, gold mines, silver mines, diamonds, or rare earths?

If you count transportation, when Yanjing's railway began to develop, it was also because it was the capital, and the railways to all parts of the country were built from Yanjing.

If you look at it historically, Yanjing is the ancient capital of the three dynasties, the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, but if this is the ancient capital. That must not be known to the people of Xiyu City and Luo City, and even the people of the Kaifu City cannot be known to them. As long as these three places are still within the territory of China, then the history of Yanjing is a joke in their eyes.

Although Yanjing has no port, no mineral deposits, and not even the oldest history, it has the most realistic thing – it is the capital of the present. It is the capital, giving priority everywhere, and gathering the strength of the whole country to develop a Yanjing, so Yanjing has the charm to attract people from all over the country.

No matter how unconvinced, the capital is the capital after all, and it is difficult for ordinary people to understand whether Yanjing has deployed any strategy, but maybe those bigwigs are all in control, and it makes sense. Therefore, Yanjing is still the most popular place in China. That's why so many people flock to it.

The capital means great opportunities!

Countless top companies have left their places in the capital, and Li Fangcheng and the three of them, as soon as they got off the plane, went straight to a magical place, Zhongguancun.

Zhongguancun is a magical place in China, countless giants have walked out of Zhongguancun, and the person Li Fangcheng is looking for is also in Zhongguancun.

Check the house number all the way, until you reach No. 2 South Road of the Academy of Sciences, a place where the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is written, Li Fangcheng walked in with Ling Donghua and Meng Hao.

"Is there anything you are doing?" a well-mannered man walked over.

"I want to find Mr. Liu Chuanzhi and talk to him about business cooperation. Li Fangcheng said with a smile.

"Well, okay, you come with me. The person who came did not refuse, and took Li Fangcheng to the backyard.

"I don't know what your surname is, sir?" while leading the way, he didn't forget to ask.

"Mu Zi Li. Li Fangcheng looked left and right, there were many security guards patrolling, and ordinary people were really a little confused when they saw this battle.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Li is lucky, Liu Chuanzhi happened to come back from a business trip today, if you came yesterday, you wouldn't be able to find him. The well-mannered person also said with a smile.

"Oh, I don't know what you're doing?" asked Li Fangcheng curiously.

"I heard that I went to a foreign country and didn't know what to do, but it seemed that I wasn't in a good mood. ”

"Well, abroad?"

"Yes, it seems to be talking about some kind of cooperation, and when it arrives, it is here, and it is here when you turn in. The leader stopped in front of a doorway.

"Okay, thank you, thank you. Li Fangcheng also thanked him.

"You're welcome, as it should be, please. ”

Looking at the guide taking a few steps back and looking at his group, Li Fangcheng knew that this was to confirm that he was not walking around, and when he looked up, there was a small sign hanging next to the door, which read: Legend.

Li Fangcheng smiled, it's you!

English name, you may not know who it is, the corresponding name is legendary, everyone doesn't know who it is, and even the current company name is very unfamiliar when you say it, the new technology development company of the Institute of Computing of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

But if it is changed to the name that is about to be changed, it will be famous in China in the future.

Even think!

The first self-founded computer company in China.

In 1982, IT giant IBM took the lead in proposing the concept of personal computer PCs and officially released its first PC, ushering in an era known as personal computers.

Since 1984, there has been a word, a brand new concept word - Xiahai, which has officially swept the entire land of China, that year, Zhongguancun in Yanjing was full of restlessness, and groups of scientific and technological personnel "went to the sea". At that time, Zhongguancun already had 40 science and technology companies, and it had a reputation as an "electronic street" in Yanjing City.

On November 1, 1984, Liu Chuanzhi, Li Qin, Wang Shuhe, Zhang Zuxiang and other 11 scientific and technological personnel who did not understand the market and did not understand business management at all, in order to respond to the call for the reform of the scientific and technological system of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, started with an investment of 200,000 yuan from the Institute of Computing of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, rented the communication room of the Academy of Sciences, and founded the new technology development company of the Institute of Computing of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in a room of only 20 square meters.

The intellectuals who have just stepped into the tide of the market are at a loss in the face of fierce market competition. When the company was first established, the 200,000 yuan on hand was just a drop in the bucket for the company developing high-tech products, because in Yanjing, a computer imported from Huaxia cost about 30,000 yuan, and if it wants to continue to develop, it must have enough capital accumulation.

It is unimaginable that a group of enthusiastic intellectuals who have transformed scientific research results into products have started their entrepreneurial journey in this way.

However, the funny thing is that not long after these 11 intellectuals entered the market, they ushered in a major blow.

At the beginning, when the company was established, it was actually a company engaged in trading, and in order to accumulate funds, it made a lot of products, such as small electrical appliances, clothes, and so on.

And at that time, these intellectuals,I didn't know the darkness of the shopping mall,I was almost crossed by a rural woman,At that time, the company learned a piece of information,JX, an armed forces department wants to purchase a batch of TVs,An employee of the company said whether he wanted to enter some color TV,At that time, for the sake of safety,At first, he specially arranged for personnel to go to other people's places to see the product。

But because I don't know what is stepping on the point, what is verification, I decided to do this business, so I gave the other party a payment of 140,000 yuan, who knew that the other party received the money and disappeared, and the products were just a few prototypes, which was tantamount to a big disaster for a small company with only 200,000 start-up capital.

Fortunately, after piecing together, he barely survived.

In August 1984, under the coordination of the Computing Institute, Ni Guangnan cooperated with AVIC Shenzhen Industry and Trade Center and Zhongguancun Information and Communications Company, and the two companies provided funds and equipment to start developing Lenovo Hanka. Soon after, Ni Guangnan's 100 Lianxiang Hanka was put on the market on a small scale, and the information and communication company and the newly established Lianxiang company, also known as Legend, were responsible for selling them on the market.

Of course, Lian Xiang was able to participate in sales because Lian Xiang was a person who came out of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences imported 500 IBM computers, and at that time, Lianxiang Company was responsible for technical services, so under the platform near the water, the 100 fast Han cards that had just been produced were directly sold to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for 93 yuan.

Of course, Xintong Company, one of the big leaders at that time, was dissatisfied, because it had many people and a big company, but it only sold 7 Hanka, so it immediately asked to share the profits with Lian Xiang.

And Lian Xiang didn't agree at first, so he fell into a tug-of-war, but no one expected that Liu Chuanzhi played a good trick of secretly crossing Chen Cang on the plank road of the people. Under the following conditions, such as promising the position of Ni Guangnan's development leader, Ni Guangnan finally jumped to Lianxiang.

Until 1985, Liu Chuanzhi officially acted as an agent for IBM's microcomputer, also known as microcomputer, which belongs to mini computers and has basic functions, but for Chinese people, there is only one place that is very inconvenient to use.

The microcomputer can only run in the English environment!

In 198, engineer Ni Guangnan designed Lianxiang Yixian Hanka was born. At this time, Liu Chuanzhi embodied his superhuman wisdom as a businessman, at that time Ni Guangnan designed this product, has been about to take shape, Liu Chuanzhi consciousness of the prospect of this product, so Lianren Lian Technology invited Ni Guangnan over, after continuous development and improvement, finally Lianxiang formed 8 software versions, 6 models of Lianxiang Hanka system, widely used in six fields.

The advent of Hanka has completely solved the problem of using Chinese characters in computers for Chinese people, and promoted the rapid popularization and application of microcomputers in China.

And it is precisely because of the success of this product that Legend officially changed its name to Lianxiang.

Lian Xiang, who completed the foundation road, suffered another blow in 1989, that is, IBM launched a compatible machine, which solved the problem that the microcomputer could only run in English from the root, and Lianxiang's core product, Hanka, suffered a fatal blow directly, which made Liu Chuanzhi make up his mind to make his own microcomputer.
