Chapter 463: The Future of Lenovo

"Xiao Zhou, aren't you afraid that the control of the enterprise will be left behind?" After Old Man Liu knew that Zhou Shi returned to Yanjing, he took the initiative to invite him to drink tea and chat together.

Lenovo is the chairman of the board of directors this year, and Yang Yuanqing is the CEO of the company, achieving sales of about 16 billion US dollars and a PC market share of 8.8%. And Lenovo mobile phone market share is the third in China, the first domestic mobile phone manufacturer, the sales of shell nuts have not reached half of Lenovo, of course, Zhou Shi is full of confidence in 2010.

"It depends on the status of this business in my heart, what I set up this business for, and what I can keep if I lose control. For example, Datang Telecom, the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it, and it is nothing to give it to Zhao Weiguo now. Friends is not good, he is my traffic center on the Internet, this is very important. But in any case, the development of the enterprise itself is the most important, if I had to choose between control and enterprise development, I would definitely choose the development of the enterprise. "Zhou Shi

"But the friend network may not be yours anymore!"

"All things do not give up, they are born without being, they are not ashamed, and they live in success. If I create or build a business and treat it as my private property, then one day, I will lose everything. You must know that the times are advancing, and my progress may not keep up with the pace of the times. "Zhou Shi

"I didn't expect you to have such a sober understanding at such a young age, so why do your companies rarely raise funds?" said Old Man Liu a little angrily

"What is the purpose of financing? It's nothing more than money and relationships, and accepting venture capital is one of the most expensive ways to raise money, and no one wants to accept such an investment if it's not necessary. "Zhou Shi

"Hey, not lacking money may be your biggest advantage!"

"But there is not a shortage of money in this world, and I think the biggest advantage is that I am willing to establish a good system to give talents a platform and opportunities for growth. And the times are easy, if necessary, I am willing to decisively wield the guillotine......" Zhou Shi regretted a little after speaking, the old man is very familiar with this set, Sun Hongbin was got into it by him in this way, Zhou Shi drove Wang Xin out of the friend network, which is also very similar to Old Man Liu's approach.

"Hey, it's good to be young, I was not afraid of heaven and earth back then, but now I don't have the energy to toss. "Old man Liu

"Does the old man say this to mean giving up his efforts?" Zhou Shi said unceremoniously

"It's not enough to give up, I can still struggle for a few years. "Elder Liu

"How many years have your plan been arranged, what do you want to do?" Zhou Shi became angry, and a thought of hating iron and steel surged up.

"I calculate that it will take 5 years to make Lenovo the world's No. 1 PC company and a world-class mobile phone manufacturing company. "Elder Liu

"Oh, does Elder Liu think Huaxia lacks a company like you?" Zhou Shi

"What are you talking about!" Old Man Liu couldn't help it and took the case.

"What is the core technology of Lenovo's development to the present? It's just an assembly enterprise, and trade and industry technology is still only trade and processing, and by the day you retire, does Lenovo have commendable technology?" Zhou Shi also stood up and pushed over.

"Why not, Lenovo's supercomputing center ......" Liu Lao

"Is there marketing and mergers and acquisitions?" Mr. Zhou said scoffingly

"You kid, you know what it means to respect the old and love the young!"

The two years are also considered to be forgetful, the age gap makes Liu Lao forget the identity and status between each other, many things that cannot be said with other entrepreneurs happen between the two, Zhou Shi also has a lot of questions to ask Liu Lao for advice, but every time he sees Liu Lao himself, Zhou Shi thinks of Lenovo's later bear-like, almost became the enemy of the whole people, if it weren't for the large orders of government agencies and enterprises, which contributed a lot of profits to them, I'm afraid Lenovo would have died out.

"The core value of high-tech enterprises is the accumulation of technology, and technology is not much shortcut, I don't know why Lenovo obviously has the strength, why not do things solidly, down-to-earth step by step development. Lenovo and Huawei are not the same level of enterprises, and their founders will not have the same level of evaluation. "Zhou Shi

"You mean I'm not as good as Ren Zheng Fei?" Liu Lao's eyes widened

"Do you need to talk about this kind of thing?" Zhou Shi, Lenovo's turnover exceeds 16 billion US dollars, which is very awesome for domestic ICT companies, and it seems that Huawei has surpassed this data.

Liu Lao was about to leave in a huff in the end, Zhou Shi was actually quite depressed, he still hadn't come up with any direction suitable for Lenovo, at most it was a cloud computing.

It is also time to develop cloud computing in China, Ali and Baidu (Kangsheng Chuangxiang CDN), sometimes Zhou Shi wants to unite three companies to develop cloud computing together, but several mentions were interrupted by Robin Lee and Jack Ma and talked about others. In fact, without the support of capital and technology, it is difficult for domestic cloud computing to compete with Amazon, Google, and Microsoft.

"Don't go, old man, I've thought of a good idea for you. Zhou Shi hurriedly grabbed Liu Chuanzhi, but he couldn't have a stiff relationship with this old man who had a huge influence in the country.

"Yes, I want to hear what you think!"

"You know, recently everyone called me the acquisition of the madness, this year has been buying, buying, buying, no, now I see a very good company, very suitable for Lenovo transformation, if, I mean if the acquisition can really be completed, a few years later Lenovo feels that it is not suitable, and it has not caused major damage to this company, I am willing to buy him back at double the price. "Zhou Shi, a year of uninterrupted acquisitions, from home to abroad, it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhou Shi is an M&A maniac.

"What company?" Liu Lao rarely became serious.

"Red Hat, the world's largest developer of open source software products and services!"

"You're crazy, what's so good about this company. "Elder Liu

"This is the gap between my vision and your limitations!" Zhou Shi wanted to say this, but no matter how broad-minded Liu Lao was, he would fall out with him in the face of such a belittlement, so Zhou Shi still said honestly: " First of all, this is an operating system, secondly, this is an open source operating system, and then most importantly, Red Hat systems play a very important role in cloud computing, last year Red Hat Enterprise Linux became the only operating system for Amazon Cloud Server, and Red Hat systems can be said to represent the future development trend of cloud computing. "Zhou Shi

"Are you serious?"

"Although this is not Lenovo's only opportunity, I can't think of any better option for Lenovo besides the smartphone industry!"

"I won't say thank you, I'll think about it. "Elder Liu

"Cloud computing, this is the strategic key project of Time in the next few years!" Zhou Shi finally said, believe it or not, it depends on his choice!
