Chapter 119: Independent Split

"Brother Kang, let's talk about the sales number of ABC computers first, so that everyone can also be excited!" Li Xuan said to Ye Chengkang with a smile.

"Okay, Li Sheng! Colleagues, the sales figures of the computer park have just come from the United States, and they have sold a total of 477 ABC-1 computers and 329 ABC-2 computers in the past week! The number of other sales channels has not yet been received, but our campus networking system has received contracts from 86 schools in the past few weeks, including orders for 2,285 ABC-1 computers and 115 ABC-2 computers!" Ye Chengkang said with satisfaction.

"Your previous report on the number of ABC-1 computer sales of 5,000 units is still a little conservative, and I personally estimate that after the final sales number in August comes out, even if you don't count the sales of campus networking systems, the total sales of ABC-1 computers can be seven or eight thousand units!" He Guoyuan said with a smile.

Ye Chengkang's smile was a little embarrassed, the ability of several analysts under him was indeed a little mediocre, and the company was continuing to recruit people recently. The last sales estimate for the Gameboy was also clearly off par. Up to now, the average daily shipment of Gameboy handheld computers is as high as 72,500 units, so that Kangjie Electronics, which is responsible for OEM, is completely operating at full capacity, and a new round of expansion has just been completed.

"The sales of the ABC-2 are also good, so that the computer park alone can sell more than 1,000 units a month. Counting the sales of other channels, at least 2,000 units can be sold every month, which shows that the business computer market is still promising!" Wang Ying also said with a smile.

"Okay, the next sales plan of ABC Computer, after the detailed numbers come out, we will discuss it in detail! The theme of this meeting, I have also talked to you before, is to reintegrate the company's various businesses!" Li Xuan waved his hand and said.

According to Li Sheng's plan, Dongfang Electronics' game, software and computer businesses will be separated separately to form two new companies, Dongfang Games and Dongfang Software, and most of the computer business will be merged into Aikang Computer Company.

The two real rooms in cooperation with the University of Hong Kong and CUHK, as well as the four R&D centers in Hong Kong, Taipei, Cambridge and Silicon Valley, are all included in Oriental Science and Technology Company!" Wang Ying, executive vice president, briefly outlined the plan for the split and integration, and distributed the detailed plan to everyone present.

"So will the headquarters of Dongfang Electronics be stored in the future, will it slowly be transformed into a shell company?" Lu Siming, the administrative director, asked with a frown.

This restructuring of the company is more of a financial split, and it only makes the original three main business divisions of the company, namely games, software, and computers, become independent legal entities. But the company's governance framework won't be adjusted much in the short term!" Wang Ying explained.

"The changes of Aikang Computer will be greater, and its headquarters will be located in London or Cambridge in the future!" Li Xuan said with a smile, "The company will soon launch the listing plan of Aikang Computer!"

Except for Wang Ying, Du Wenqiang, and He Guoyuan, the three vice presidents who already knew it, everyone else was stunned and surprised. From its establishment to the present, Dongfang Electronics has been full of calculations for less than a year, and its subsidiaries are ready to go public, which is not surprising.

More importantly, Dongfang Electronics' cash flow is very abundant, and there is no problem of zài funds at all, and there is no need to go public now. In particular, Aikang company with the listing of ABC computer, the next development momentum will be very rapid, and it is possible to wait for the end of this round of expansion period, the company's strength and confidence are more sufficient, and it is seeking to sell at a good price.

Li Xuan took everyone's expressions into his eyes. A few days ago, I learned from the BBC that the British government is discussing supporting schools to carry out basic computer education, and encouraging schools to build computer classrooms in the form of special financial subsidies.

There are at least tens of thousands of primary and secondary schools in the UK, and even if only some of them will build computer classrooms, it is a market of hundreds of millions of pounds. What is obvious is that the British government will naturally not allow the use of huge financial subsidies to feed the appetite of foreign computer companies, and will certainly give priority to supporting its own computer industry, which will directly turn away American computer manufacturers such as Apple and Kemodo.

Compared with these main competitors, Dongfang Electronics' Aikang Computer Company still has room to operate. Because before it was acquired by Dongfang Electronics, it was originally a cutting-edge British local computer company. Even after being acquired by Dongfang Electronics, Dongfang Electronics, headquartered in Hong Kong, is a British company in a broad sense.

But in order to make the identity of Aikang more impeccable, Li Xuan thought of a better way to let Aikang Computer be listed directly on the London Stock Exchange. According to the listing conditions of the London Stock Exchange, a company applying for listing must be established for three years, and Aikang Computer Company is only two years old.

However, the sales momentum of the newly launched ABC-1 and ABC-2 computers in the United States and the United Kingdom is very strong, and it is believed that it will not be difficult to sell more than 10,000 units per month. Moreover, Atom, another low-cost computer of Aikang, entered the US market one step earlier than ABC computer by relying on the sales channels of computer park companies. Although the sales rate of the Atom computer is not as fast as the nearly 300,000 units of the Vic-20 computer of the company, the monthly sales can also be maintained at more than 20,000 units.

With the support of these three fist products, the annual turnover of Aikang Company in the future is estimated to be at least 200 million US dollars. Such a high-tech company with broad growth prospects is enough to apply for special terms and break the London Stock Exchange's requirement that listed companies must be established for three years.

And as long as Aikang is listed in the UK, Dongfang Electronics has enough reason to convince the education officials in Downing Street that Aikang Computer is a real British company. Since there is such an excellent computer company in the UK, it is natural that it cannot be excluded from the list of special subsidies for education.

Of course, in Li Xuan's plan, Aikang Computer will only be a brand that will be assembled and sold last. The really most important technology research and development, as well as a series of key patents, will be firmly controlled in the hands of Dongfang Electronics, and will not be included in the listed assets of Aikang.

Aikang will obtain relevant technical support from Dongfang Electronics in the form of authorization. The computer products manufactured by Aikang will be sold to the world through the marketing channels of Guò Dongfang Electronics, especially the computer park company. Even the computer production link in the middle will be responsible for the production foundry system of Dongfang Electronics centered on Hong Kong.

Therefore, Aikang Computer Company is actually just a puppet company with very good-looking financial figures, and the key upstream and downstream lifelines will be in the hands of the controlling shareholder, Dongfang Electronics Company. In addition to completely putting on the coat of a British company, the biggest purpose of Aikang's listing is to enter the financial market circle by the way.
