Chapter 1614: The First Step of Kirin Computer

Zhong Chuhong came to Huajing, but now Yin Jun has arrived in the United States.

March is traditional awards season in the United States.

It is also the most famous time for the Oscars, if you don't count the Oscars, in fact, there are various film festivals here all year round, and the awards that domestic stars often win in the future come from these places.

Yin Jun can not go to other award ceremonies, but he wants to save face at the Oscars.

Then in the United States, Yin Jun also has a lot of affairs to solve.

The first is to understand the promotion and sales work of Kirin Computer.

In March now, Kirin Computer has completely fallen out with IBM.

These actions of Kylin Computer can't be hidden from others.

They don't want to hide it either.

So IBM was very keenly aware of their purpose, and unconsciously became furious.

The little minions who used to rely on themselves to eat actually wanted to rebel and set up a computer company against themselves, is this worth it?

As a result, IBM not only withdrew the most favorable agency right granted to Kylin Computer, but also filed a complaint with the federal court, requesting that Kylin Computer be prohibited from assembling and producing its own computers.

The reason is that they are using IBM's channels, and they are suspected of taking away users, which seriously infringes on IBM's interests.

Baker Lee, the general manager of Kirin Computer, was not ambiguous at all, and hired the law firm in the United States that is best at fighting this kind of lawsuit, and was ready to fight a lawsuit with them.

Tang Shuxuan here was not idle, and asked ABC TV to dig deep into various scandals of IBM and broadcast one issue a day.

Just a week later, IBM's stock price plummeted 22 percent, and a number of executives resigned, and the chairman, who retired last year, was summoned by the court to be ready to talk to him.

In such a situation, how do you say IBM will continue to pursue it?

The court lawsuit, after a period of twisting, was quietly withdrawn.

It is impossible to cooperate with Kirin Computer, but their spokesman also announced that the two sides have reached a settlement.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on.

There is no way, Rao is your blue giant who dominates the world in the computer and electronics industry, and when you meet a giant in the media industry, you have to admit it.

Who calls people to have the right to speak?

Get rid of this trouble, and the propaganda of Kirin Computer is a bit unscrupulous.

After nearly a year of development, and spending money to lay a sales and maintenance network, Kirin computers have spread to more than 20 major cities in the United States.

On weekdays, they advertise more powerfully, so that everyone knows the brand "Kirin Computer".

Now under the stealing beams and changing the pillars, he has taken out his own design of the Kirin computer, and many computer users have not reacted, which is the product of the Kirin computer company.

It was IBM's complaint that made everyone know that Kylin Computer Company was starting from scratch.

To those in the industry, this is not a strange thing at all.

Backed by a large company like the Kirin Group, and with its own rich industry resources, it is strange not to want to do it yourself.

But in the eyes of computer users, there is something new.

Is the computer really that easy to make?

Kirin Computer has only been established for about a year, and it has been more than half a year since it started selling IBM computers - in some places, it has not been more than half a year, only two or three months.

Their after-sales maintenance service is very good, make a phone call, and it can be arrived in 5 hours during working hours, and it will not be more than three days at the latest.

If you send it to the maintenance department for repair, you will be notified in two days at most that it has been repaired and you can take it back.

For the United States, which is known for its laziness, this is already flying at the same speed.

After all, in the United States in 2020, if a water pipe bursts and is repaired, you have to wait at least three to five days, and sometimes it takes longer.

As for the express delivery, it will take longer, and the delivery of the same city express within a week is not slow.

As for the after-sales service, many users did not scoff at it after seeing the advertisements advertised everywhere by Kylin Computer.

Then Kylin Computer also allows all users, potential users, to go to their sales store and try the performance of Kylin Computer.

In the past two years, the private computer users of the United States have been in the first blowout era.

Even if it is not for their own improvement, in order for their children to be exposed to high-tech for the first time, parents are willing to buy.

In the eyes of later generations, this most primitive computer was not cheap. The cheapest HP and Compaq computers are basically around $2,500, but the performance is far from being as good as that of IBM and Apple.

IBM and Apple's computers are indeed very good, but the price is not affordable for ordinary people.

Apple's latest high-spec computer costs as much as $5,999, which is exactly the same as the virtues of their later generations.

But what is exactly the same as later generations is that there are many Apple brain remnants now, crying and shouting that they must buy Apple's best computer, and they don't know why.

In contrast, IBM is a bit more generous than Apple, with $3,000 at the bottom, $3,500 at the top, and $4,000 at the highest.

However, there is another point, Apple comes with its own operating system, and other brands of computers do not have their own operating systems, and they need to buy other operating systems to use them.

The first choice is naturally Microsoft's Windows system, but the price of Microsoft's IN84 is not cheap, directly $800 a piece.

But in terms of operating system, Microsoft's Windows system is still the best and most convenient, both adults and children are easy to use, and it is very easy to use.

But as a result, the cost of the entire computer has to double again, and the cheapest one has to be $3,300.

In this case, the first computer of Kirin Computer Company, with the addition of Microsoft's operating system, was as low as 2999, which is indeed a conscience in conscience.

As a result, many people have dragged their families to the Kylin computer store, ready to try the performance of this computer.

Since March, each Kirin computer store has received more than 500 groups of customers every day, and by the end of the week, this number can double or triple.

Both the press and television stations reported on this jaw-dropping spectacle.

Although it is a bit of a publicity gimmick, it is true that so many people have arrived, creating a situation where the water is not working.

One of the reasons for this situation is that the number of Kirin computer stores is not very large, and there are only 8 in large cities like New York, and there are only 3 in some medium-sized cities.

Compared to New York City, which has a population of more than 20 million, other cities are mostly large cities with more than 5 million people, and the number of such specialty stores is really not enough.

But this is already the one with the most service outlets among all computer companies.

IBM has only one after-sales service outlet in New York, and if you want to repair a computer, you have to wait at least a month or two.

This is also the reason why IBM was so happy after Kirin Computer took over the after-sales maintenance work.

The price paid by Kylin Computer is that it has recruited and trained more than 2,000 after-sales engineers in more than half a year.

The craftsmanship and standards of these people must be uneven.

Baker Lee asked the veteran engineers to teach the new college graduates on the spot to help them improve.

After so many repairs, most of the engineers are qualified.

After all, now IBM and other computer machines are all modular production, and if something goes wrong, it is generally okay to directly replace them with new ones.

What is really difficult is to bring it back to the maintenance department for maintenance, where more elite engineers are on duty 24 hours a day, and they are also teaching students while repairing, which is very efficient.

At present, in March, more than 5,000 new apprentices with a certain foundation in electronic engineering were recruited.

After they have completed their studies, they will be randomly assigned to the new city that Kylin Computer will open up to continue to expand the sales and maintenance network of Kylin Computer.

In the face of the steady stream of customers every day, each two-story Kylin computer company has placed hundreds of Kylin computers, and every 5 of them will have a staff member or an engineer who comes to help temporarily to help explain and answer questions.

Rao is like this, after a busy day, they also collapsed directly on the ground, not wanting to move.

Baker Lee had to be rewarded with three times his salary, which made them succumb to Franklin's power and work more than 12 hours a day.

These busynesses are naturally also accomplished.

Usually, after trying to control the Kirin computer, you are very satisfied with the smoothness, responsiveness, sound effect, and various useful programs.

There is still a gap between IBM and Apple, but it seems to be slightly better than HP and Compaq.

And within two years, all non-man-made damage will be repaired by Kylin Computer for free - the previous computer companies, the maximum repair is only one year.

Such a price, such an experience, such an after-sales service, is already a great value for money.

Not only that, Kylin Computer has also cooperated with Citibank Bank of the United States to launch a loan service for Citibank credit cards.

If you book in full before the official release in May, Kirin Computer will help you post 6 installments of fees and interest.

In other words, installments are free for 6 installments.

This is a very common promotional method in Taobao or Jingdong in the future.

Usually if people buy something, see a few issues for free, so as soon as they are divided, they don't spend much every month, and they immediately buy it directly - and don't think about it, in fact, you still give so much, but you divide the bill into a few months, which seems to be less.

But now in 1984, I have never seen such a large-scale unlimited discount activity.

Originally, the computer was $2,999, and the 6 installments were free and you only had to pay about $500 per month, which was very cost-effective.

The high interest rate of foreign credit cards is not something that we in China who have basically never used a credit card can understand.

Under normal circumstances, the interest rate of our credit card is around 8%-10% a year, which is basically cheaper than the 10%-12% annual interest rate of micro-loans of payment, payment, treasure loan, and micro-credit.

However, the average credit card interest rate in the United States is 18%, and the credit card issued by some large chain stores can give you a 30% interest rate for a year!

It's terrifying!

Therefore, Kylin Computer Company is equivalent to helping users post about 300 interest money.

This benefit will still be calculated into the expenses of budget-conscious housewives.

This is especially true for the young people.

Don't want interest to be equivalent to a white flower, so what's there to worry about?

Get a card!

Brush!

As a result, in such a large half a month, the number of full-payment reservations has exceeded 36,000 units, almost reaching 40,000.

In terms of people's acceptance and demand for computers in this era, it is already a good number for the new thing of Kirin computer.

When Baker Lee reported to Yin Jun, he said that if the number of pre-orders can exceed 100,000 units before the release in May, it will be a great victory!

……

(Happy National Day holiday, everyone!Thank you for your recent tips, monthly passes, and recommended gentlemen!)
