In the 80s, although China was relatively backward, it was full of opportunities. As long as those who dare to break through and dare to do things, they have already made a fortune! It's just that, like the United States, most of those who don't follow the usual path are elite intellectuals, such as Silicon Valley and Wall Street, which are rich in billionaires, and they are embarrassed to greet people who have not graduated from prestigious schools.

In China, on the other hand, most of the first successful ones were from the marginalized classes. Those second-rate people in the city who have no jobs, and set up a stall selling clothes on the street, have become self-employed for 10,000 yuan. The peasants washed the mud off their feet, put on suits and leather shoes on the beds, and became township entrepreneurs.

And those college students who enjoy the best educational resources in China are instead assigned to government institutions and institutes step by step, receiving a dead salary of 100 yuan a month. It is not that the elites who have spent great efforts in cultivating these countries are not as capable as those peasants who have not read much, but that life has not forced them to the point where they have to fight and become benevolent if they do not succeed.

In fact, the situation of high-level intellectuals like Liu Chuanzhi going to the sea to start a business will not appear on a large scale until the 90s, after the second southern tour of D Lao. It's just that compared to the wild eighties, the opportunities in the nineties are much inferior, and there will never be a good thing to make money and earn hand cramps by flipping a few clothes.

However, Liu Chuanzhi was able to grasp the opportunity one step ahead of others and joined the business world in the eighties. Compared with those peasant entrepreneurs and self-employed big bosses, the advantages of high-level intellectuals like him are actually very obvious. Although self-employed and township enterprises are wealthy, they are generally discriminated against in terms of political status. Like Rongsheng refrigerator, I want to invite a Hong Kong star to advertise. It still needs to be approved layer by layer, and in the end, it is not done.

In contrast, Lianxiang Company borrowed the signboard of the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. All the way to the smooth sailing. More importantly, the high-level knowledge makes Liu Chuanzhi's understanding of business management far exceed that of most small bosses of the same era. Most of China's township enterprises are actually passively moving forward under the impetus of market forces. Factory owners rarely recognize the importance of building a standardized, modern enterprise management system.

Township enterprises that are "small, fast, and flexible" may have an advantage in the early stage of development. However, after the enterprise develops to a certain scale, the knowledge and ability of managers cannot keep up. The drawbacks will only become more and more apparent.

Lianxiang is also small in scale now, and it was not until last year that the handicraft workshop stage was completed, and workers were hired to start regular assembly line production. And strictly control the quality of products. This has opened up a gap between Lianxiang Company and many domestic peers who pay attention to small ships and flexible operations.

At the same time, Lianxiang Company has the backing of the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and although its scientific research strength is still 108,000 miles away from multinational companies such as the Oriental Research Institute, it is compared with those peers who can only assemble parts. There are still huge advantages.

Lianxiang's scientific research team successfully developed it not long ago. The first motherboard of its own that conforms to the ABC-5 technical standard specification. The motherboard is one of the most important components of the computer, if the company produces ABC-5 compatible functions with its own motherboard, then at least the whole mechanism can save 200 yuan.

This is also the reason why Liu Chuanzhi is reluctant to continue to secretly produce ABC-5 compatible machines. But as far as the Chinese market is concerned, Liu Chuanzhi believes that his Lianxiang company is completely based on its strength and occupies a place in the fierce competition of ABC-5 magnetic field. Therefore, solving the problem of intellectual property rights and the supply of key components has become a top priority for Lianxiang Company.

Liu Chuanzhi chatted with Liu Hao without a match, but he was thinking about how to get on the line with the people of the Oriental Group. It was the sound of a "Di Di" horn outside the store, interrupting the small talk between the two. A beautiful black sedan was parked lightly in front of the store.

"Yo, BMW. This car costs at least hundreds of thousands, and I don't know which big one!" Liu Hao nodded at the car outside the door, and said with some envy.

Liu Chuanzhi didn't know much about cars, but he was amazed at the high cost of this car, but after a few glances, he quickly lost interest and immersed himself in his own thoughts.

Liu Hao kept staring at the BMW outside the store, and when he saw the person getting down from the driver's seat, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately trotted up enthusiastically: "The distinguished guest is coming, and he is not welcome! I thought it was a big boss in Hong Kong, it turned out to be you, brother! Good guy, they are all driving BMWs, no wonder they don't look down on broken cars like Xiali!"

"Boss Liu, you are exalting me too much! This car belongs to my wife, I don't have the money to buy such an expensive car!" Liu Wei shook his head and said.

"Look at what you said, the family is so clearly divided, it's no wonder if your lady is not angry when she hears it!" Liu Hao said and welcomed Liu Wei into the door.

"Brother, you're here!" the customer who had been rubbing his way just now finally said in surprise.

"This little brother turned out to be Ah Wei's younger brother!" Liu Hao finally understood the situation, "He has been grinding with me for half an hour, it is really a big flood that has washed the Dragon King Temple, he would have said that it was your brother earlier, I gave him a CPU just now!"

"You are also open for business, but don't do this, just give us a preferential price later! My brother is building a computer and wants a second-hand ERM-2, which is 80MHz!" Liu Wei waved his hand and said, thanking the boss for his kind words.

"Are you really buying second-hand?" the young man walked up to Liu Wei and asked with some disbelief.

"The original 80MHz ERM-2 is at least twice as expensive as your budget! The CPU is updated too quickly, and it can be replaced in two or three years, and it is better to buy a second-hand one. You just ask Boss Liu to help you pick a better one later!" Liu Wei shook his head and said.

In fact, this is not his own brother, but a child in the village next door to his hometown. When Liu Wei was admitted to Tsinghua University, he caused a sensation and became a celebrity in the entire town. As a result, the good seedlings who had the opportunity to be admitted to university in several surrounding villages would be accompanied by their parents when Liu Wei returned home for the Chinese New Year every year to inquire about various problems in his studies or voluntary applications.

Although this score was not enough to meet the admission line of SUSTech, at the suggestion of Liu Wei, the other party still chose to apply for another university in the Special Administrative Region -- Shenhai University, majoring in computer science.

Since the other party came to study in the Deep Sea Special Zone at Liu Wei's suggestion, he naturally needed to care more. For computer science students, having their own computer can undoubtedly do more with less.

"I just bought an ABC-6, so the ABC-5 at home can be lent to him! But my ABC-5 was bought two years ago, and the CPU inside is an early model of the ERM-2, and the frequency is only 40MHz!" Liu Wei explained.

"Yes, the most important thing on the computer is the CPU and memory, upgrade these two, and it will be a new computer!" Liu Chuanzhi also interjected next to him.

Since it was an acquaintance who came to the door, Liu Hao also picked out an ERM-2 processor from the corner of the counter. He tests each processor when it comes in, so he knows exactly how well they perform.

In fact, in addition to corporate customers like Lian Xiang, most of the ERM-2 sold in Liu Hao's store are second-hand goods smuggled from Hong Kong. After all, compared to the current average salary in China, the price of computer CPUs is too expensive.

Like the most expensive 100MHz model in the ERM-2 series, the original goods in Liu Hao's store are priced at as high as 3,000 yuan. You must know that this is more than the sum of the salaries of Chinese university professors in a year, except for SUSTech in the Deep Sea Special Zone!

As the saying goes, since Liu Wei borrowed and gave his old computer to this fellow student, the money to update the CPU naturally had to be paid by the other party! And even if it is for Liu Wei's sake, Liu Hao has already given a maximum discount, an 80MHz second-hand ERM-2 processor, which will still be sold for 500 yuan!

"What did that comrade do just now? I don't think his temperament is in business!" After Liu Wei left, Liu Chuanzhi asked Liu Hao with some curiosity.

"He's engaged in technology! But this guy has found the daughter of a big Hong Kong boss to be his wife, and you also saw the BMW car just now, which is her wife's dowry! There is also the most famous high-end restaurant in Xinnan Town, Chunjiang Chao, which is also the property of the couple!

But don't think that this is a little white face who eats soft rice, and his own strength is also powerful! His main job is a scientific research engineer of the Oriental Research Institute, and it seems that he is a big brother who studies mobile phone technology, and he is the kind of big brother who looks like a brick!

The Oriental Research Institute is very rich, and the treatment offered to the following technicians is terrifying! The starting salary of a newcomer who joins the company in the first year is 2,000 yuan, which is a monthly salary! And an old employee like Liu Wei is said to have a monthly salary of four or five thousand!

What's even more powerful is that in addition to salary, according to everyone's scientific research performance, the company will also have a year-end bonus at the end of the year! Do you know what Liu Wei's year-end bonus was last year?" Liu Hao smiled mysteriously.

Liu Chuanzhi shook his head very cooperatively, but listening to the other party's tone, he could also expect that it must be something very surprising.

At the end of last year, the Oriental Research Institute awarded 5 Santanas and 30 Xiali in one go! Liu Wei got a Xiali, but as you can see, his own car is much more advanced than Xiali, so he gave me his quota!

I spent 70,000 yuan, and I still owe him a favor! You don't know how difficult it is to buy a car now, Xiali's national guide price is only 60,000 yuan, but if you don't have a strong relationship, you can't buy it at all! And the Oriental Research Institute is so powerful that it directly picks up the car from the manufacturer at a 20% discount, because everyone pays in dollars!

However, 70,000 yuan is not a loss for me, the Oriental Group is the key protection object of the SAR government, and their car registration and license plate are all one-stop services, and it only takes a week to get everything done, so as not to have to rely on the relationship!" Liu Hao gushed endlessly.

As soon as Liu Chuanzhi heard this name, his eyes couldn't help but flash a fine light. He was worried that he had no way, but he didn't expect to miss a great opportunity just now. I don't know if this Boss Li has the phone number of the person just now. (To be continued.) )
