Chapter 461: Big Brother
Li Yadong and the three of them came quietly, and they didn't take a cloud away, and under his explanation, Teacher He did not alarm the school leaders.
Return along the future Fourth Ring Road, but this time on the other side of the road, but just past Zhongguancun.
"Let's go, go in and have a look, see if there is a big brother for sale, and if you have one, you two will have one. β
"Huh?" the Qi brothers looked at each other, confused.
Match them with Big Brother?
Brother Dong, can you not be so nice to us?
"What are you doing? Otherwise, you're going to let me run around with that big scale every day?" Li Yadong didn't have a good breath.
In fact, Hong Kong has had a big brother for a long time, and when he first arrived in Hong Kong in 87 years, didn't Liu Luanxiong hold a big brother?
Li Yadong also wanted to match, mainly for convenience, but at that time, the domestic mobile network had not yet been set up, and Hong Kong was so big, no matter how much he ran around, it was still there, it was impossible to run to the South China Sea, and there was no fairy island over there. I feel a little useless, so I haven't matched it.
However, now it is different, the time has entered the 90s, although Li Yadong does not know about mobile communications, but he also knows that the domestic mobile network must have been set up in the 90s.
On the street, you can occasionally see the owner holding a "big brick" in his hand.
He now runs around the country from time to time, and a mobile phone is still very necessary.
The Qi family brothers smiled, only then did they know that they would be wrong.
Come to think of it, they have an egg with a big brother, and I'm afraid they can be used as weapons in a fight.
The last time I walked into Zhongguancun was in 1984, and now six years have passed, and the changes in Zhongguancun are not insignificant, and Li Yadong is a little afraid to admit it.
The road has been widened significantly, and the small bungalows next to it have become buildings rising from the ground, but the biggest change is the colorful and colorful billboards.
It can be described as obscuring the sky.
These billboards are estimated to be erected in vain, they must be paid, and from their size, you can probably indirectly see the strength of the corresponding company.
"What will happen to the world if humans lose their associations?"
It's the biggest of all the billboards.
There is no doubt that Lenovo is starting to rise.
However, this has little to do with Li Yadong, as his business horizons gradually broaden, some of his previous naΓ―ve ideas are slowly being abandoned by him.
Believe it or not, he feels more and more that Lenovo is not a good company, the reason is simple, it lacks its own Lenovo, and it lacks the core technology to survive.
As a computer hardware supplier, its attainments in the field of chips are not even comparable to Huawei, which is mainly engaged in communication technology.
Even if he wants to invest and get involved, he would rather look for Huawei than Lenovo.
The automobile business gave him great inspiration, and he gradually realized that Yanagawa Zhi's business strategy is unreasonable, relying on agents and relying on the upper technology chain may allow you to gain wealth for a short time, but the risk is too great, and it is difficult to continue to develop.
On the contrary, Ni Huannan's development route of focusing on technology research and development may not be easy to achieve results in the short term, but in the long run, it is undoubtedly correct.
If a technology company wants to continue to develop and be invincible in the fierce market competition in the future, it must have its own core technology.
Lenovo lost Ni Huannan, perhaps from the beginning, it lost its foundation.
With Li Yadong's strength far exceeding Lenovo dozens or even hundreds of times, it can be concluded that if Lenovo does not return to the business strategy of technology research and development in the future, it will eventually be eliminated by the market.
If you don't believe it, you can wait and see.
It's like a folk saying that "no more than three generations of wealth" describes the family, and it seems to be equally applicable to the enterprise.
Li Yadong in the computer field is bound to get involved, but he is becoming more and more disinterested in hardware, and his goal is software, to be more accurate, the Internet.
However, I am afraid that it will be a few years to wait.
It's really not withdrawn, and it may be a little crazy to say something: he has to wait for the world to develop.
The goods sold on the streets of Zhongguancun are also very different from a few years ago, I remember the last time I came, there were still flashlights and electric fans sold here, and it seemed that the things with electricity were all high-tech.
Now it is more professional, and it is slowly advancing to the road of "China's Silicon Valley". Personal computers were still a rarity in these days, and here they are a must-sell item in all stores.
The price is also quite exaggerated, a computer is not tens of thousands of yuan is not easy to take, except for some enterprises and government departments must be equipped, the common people are afraid that few people can afford it.
Li Yadong, who was far away, saw an "M" sign and knew that he had found his target.
If it's not Motorola, what else can it be? McDonald's doesn't look like this.
After all, it is a foreign-funded enterprise, and it is indeed wealthy, and one store has six stores, and the interior is also richly decorated. The glass windows are filled with large and small goods, mainly BB machines, and there are so many styles that people are dazzled.
In comparison, Big Brother is much less, and there is only one window for Big Brother, but it firmly occupies the C position. There are even small spotlights installed in the glass cabinets, and the bright light is focused on the dark body, so as to highlight the prestige status of the big brother.
In fact, Big Brother is indeed very noble in this year. Ordinary people have no concept of private cars, and they rarely have envy. In this era, when you drive a BMW and go out, people still think it's a bus. Then what's there to envy, it's not yours anyway.
But if someone holds a big brother in their hands, when they are eating, drinking, tea, and negotiating, they put it on the table, just like betting on a rich chip and scepter, they will immediately gain more respect, and business negotiations will become extremely easy.
This is a person with a flamboyant personality.
And those with restrained personalities will put Big Brother in a shiny boss's bag, which is sandwiched under his armpit. Take it out at the right time, pull out the long antenna, spend a dollar a minute on the phone bill, and shout "Hey, hey, you can't hear clearly, you say it again." β
Immediately, it can attract countless admiring eyes.
In this era, people are very simple and never hide their admiration for others. Many people have quickly opened up their social circles because of Big Brother. For a time, combing his back hair, smearing hairspray, and holding Big Brother have become the ideal image of a rich man for many people.
It can even be said that whether there is a big brother or not is the standard for measuring big bosses in this era.
Therefore, for a while, Big Brother stool caused comparative consumption among the rich.
If you don't believe it, if you ask, among the big bosses in this era, who doesn't have a big brother?
For example, people like Xu Hongye are impossible without a big brother.
As for why he didn't take it out when he met Li Yadong, he must have felt that it was a little inappropriate to hold such a thing in front of him. Take a step back and say, if a call comes, will you answer it or not?
It can only be said that Li Yadong is an exception, and his last mobile phone was the Apple 7Plus.
"Are a few gentlemen taking a fancy to this machine?" The sales lady is afraid that she is also one in a hundred, her appearance is very sweet, and her voice is also very pleasant. She saw that Li Yadong and the three of them were extraordinary, and after staring at the window for a while, she hurriedly came up to greet her.
"Well, I'm thinking about buying one, but I don't have high requirements for appearance, and I pay more attention to the signal. Li Yadong looked at her eight white teeth, and his eyes were not bad, so he said his needs in a timely manner.
The excitement of the sales lady jumped on her face, and a big brother bought enough to sell ten BB machines, and quickly greeted enthusiastically.
"Yes, sir, do you have any requirements for the price?"
"Nope. β
The simple two words made the sales lady even more flustered. Crisp, direct, and neat, there's no doubt that he's a big boss!
Let's just say that these three people are not ordinary, and they are probably not from the capital, as expected. Fortunately, she watched everywhere and listened to all directions, and noticed this big buyer in time. In fact, the salesman closest to the three of them just now was not her, but Sister Hong, but unfortunately she didn't notice it, and was busy introducing the BB machine to a group of customers who had been shopping in the store for a while.
If this was done, she would have to be depressed for several days.
"Yes, sir. According to your requirements, I recommend one of our latest Motorola products, this product has just been introduced from Hong Kong and Taiwan, the signal is super strong, after the battery is fully charged, the talk time can reach 35 minutes......"
The sales lady enthusiastically introduced a lot, Li Yadong didn't remember anything else, so he remembered a thirty-five minutes, and said in surprise: "In other words, you can only make a phone call for thirty-five minutes?"
"yes. The sales lady didn't hear the meaning of the words at all, and still confidently sold: "The battery capacity has been strengthened, and the talk time has been increased by five minutes compared to the ordinary big brother!"
"......" Li Yadong looked at the eldest brother in the window, and couldn't help but be speechless for a while, such a large battery board on his back can only be used for half an hour, what kind of broken technology is this?
"Is there a longer call time?" Li Yadong asked, what is 35 minutes enough for, he usually has a phone porridge with Miss Su, which time is not one or two hours?
"This ...... No. As far as the one I recommend, it is already the most charged. β
Well, I don't have a choice yet.
I really didn't withdraw it, I looked at the goods, and a big brick couldn't play a trick, and the shapes were almost the same.
"What price?"
"The original price was 25,000, but the supply of this product is very tight, if you want to spot it, you need to increase the price by 2,000, and the network access fee is 6,000. β
So that means that if you want to win such a thing, you need 33,000 yuan.
Isn't that the standard by which big bosses are measured?
Who can afford it if it's not a big boss?8)
