Chapter 366 The cumulative sales of Pangu computers exceeded 50 million units
November 19, 1986, a week after the end of the Double 11 carnival.
An important briefing note from the New Venture Electronics Group was submitted to Lin Qi's desk.
As of November 15, 86, Pangu series consoles have completed sales of 15 million units (excluding Xiaobawang) during the year, and the cumulative sales have exceeded 50 million units.
After the release of this briefing, Lin Qi also approved the celebration of the group company.
The new entrepreneurial electronics group has less formalism. There are relatively few activities such as the company's anniversary, similar to the Double 11, which are not the company's own celebrations, but artificially created promotional festivals.
Of course, the cumulative shipments of Pangu series consoles exceeded 50 million units, and the shipments exceeded 15 million units during the year.
"Dear shareholders and colleagues,
The date of the establishment of the new venture electronics company is not too long, and as of this year, it is only about 7 years old. Within 7 years, we have achieved a single-digit number of employees and less than one million yuan in assets. Up to now, the group company has nearly 10,000 employees and nearly 200 billion assets. What is even more proud is that from the very beginning, we did not achieve development through the introduction of external funds, but purely relied on independent innovation, starting from the manufacture of low-end products such as calculators and electronic watches, and developing into giants in electronics, semiconductors, culture and entertainment industries.
Today's celebration is not for the company's seventh anniversary. Anniversaries and the like, there is nothing to celebrate other than proving how many years the company has lived.
Now we should celebrate our achievements. Many colleagues work hard to develop new products day and night. There are also many colleagues who have opened up new markets one after another and brought new growth to the company. There are also colleagues, who solve one problem after another to avoid losses to the company......
Because of your contributions over the past seven years, as of today, we have sold a total of 50 million Pangu computers. By November 15 this year, the company has achieved its sales target of 15 million units for the year......
In fact, we were the world's largest microcomputer company a few years ago. But in order to avoid the full blow of the industry giants, so, modestly sell computers as game consoles.
Now, we can justify our achievements, we are the largest computer company in the world. Pangu computer is a mainstream computer with a market size close to that of a PC!"
When Lin Qi's words stopped, thunderous applause rang out in the arena.
"Pangu Computer is the most important business of our group, and it is also an important foundation for future development. Although, the whole machine business, did not create much profit margin. However, we still can't relax, we must let the Pangu host maintain a high market share, and let our technical standards become the mainstream standard......
Only in this way can we make additional profits through application software, games, supporting hardware, services, and investments.
It can be said that our awesomeness is built on the user scale of Pangu hosting. If we can't sustain this advantage, then our company will collapse like Atari.
That's why I hope that all employees and shareholders will be humble and cautious!
In addition, the sales of 50 million units cannot be without celebration and without rewards. I would like to make a suggestion to give additional rewards according to the length of service. For each full year, an additional bonus of 10,000 yuan will be given. If you have joined the company for less than a year, it will be counted as one year, do you think it is good?"
Lin Qi's suggestion suddenly aroused everyone's passion. Although, some of the company's old employees feel that it doesn't matter, because many old employees no longer rely on wages and bonuses to live, but rely on some big projects and the company's equity incentives to make profits.
However, some employees who are not up or down are still very excited. New employees who have joined the company for less than a year also inexplicably took a big red envelope, which is naturally secret.
Even the old employees who hold more shares feel that they do not suffer a loss. After all, Lin Qi currently holds the most shares in the company, holding more than 87% of the shares.
In addition, the second largest shareholder is Yu Youcheng, who has received the most equity incentives because of his technical contributions, but only 0.9% of the equity.
The rest of the first batch of employees who joined the company at the earliest time have more than 0.3% equity!
But in general, the new venture electronics group is still dominated by Lin Qi. But this kind of dominance is not a disadvantage, at least, there is no employee and shareholder who feels that they can replace Lin Qi's position.
It seems that Lin Qi has not done a lot, but he often has a sudden brain hole, and then let his subordinates be busy for his brain hole.
But afterwards, everyone found out that after completing these brain holes, the company has broken through one height after another......
The first batch of employees who joined the company could not imagine that they still had such awesome abilities!
……
"Mr. Lin, the posthumous work of your friend Mr. Zhao Kai, we have completed the final review of the school team, you can see if it meets your requirements!" Shangguan Xiaobao, the current general manager of the New Venture Publishing Group Company, respectfully held a book of less than 100,000 words and presented a treasure to Lin Qi.
Lin Qi nodded, put the manuscript into the briefcase, and said, "What about you Director Zhang?"
"Zhang Dong went to Japan to discuss copyright adaptation matters with Japanese animation companies. Shangguan Xiaobao said with a smile, "In addition, Zhang Dong is also preparing to inspect the Japanese market to see if he can replicate the company's chain rental bookstore business in Hong Kong and Chinese mainland markets!"
Previously, the general manager of the new venture publishing group was Zhang Dahai, and later, Zhang Dahai went to the mainland to expand his business. Moreover, it is too expensive to buy books to read, which has also triggered a boom in the rental book market.
For example, if a book is priced at 3 yuan in China, simply selling a book will not only not be able to sell a few copies because of the high price, but also will encounter the impact of piracy. However, I do my own publishing, and I do my own book rental. The rent of each book in China is 1 cent a day, and the rent of books in Hong Kong is 5 cents a day.
Some likes and comics, and, with a very large amount of reading, then the rental book model is also more acceptable to it.
Zhang Dahai has copied more than 3,000 rental bookstores in China, and can be called the world's largest chain rental giant.
It can be said that before the advent of online literature, this model can be said to be the most suitable model for domestic and comic industry distribution. It's just that historically, the bookstore rental market was completely occupied by pirated books, and regular publishing houses completely ignored this huge market.
Zhang Dahai has been doing his pioneering business in China for a long time, and Zhang Ru has been managing the New Venture Publishing Group as an executive director for a long time.
Including Zhao Kai's posthumous work "The Great Pattern and the Great Prophecy", Lin Qi handed it over to Zhang Ru after he revised it for a month, asking her to mobilize the resources of the new venture publishing group and polish it into a more classic and authoritative work again.
To put it simply, the prophecies in this book may be awesome, but because there is no large number of expert authoritative professional sources to support these predictions, it may be regarded as a stall reading.
Lin Qi also wants to use this book to lead the way for the national decision-makers to make a more correct strategic layout. Like what...... The collapse of the Soviet Union, Japan's economic stagnation, and the like, even if you want to take advantage of the fire, may not be able to get much benefit.
But it's not the same with a country!
Historically, it took a long time for the country to react after the collapse of the Soviet Union. However, both the official and non-governmental organizations have also reaped a lot of benefits. This is still an afterthought, and it was only after the long-term turmoil after the collapse of the Soviet Union that it began to be deployed. If the country had already planned for the possible collapse of the Soviet Union, and when it really happened, then the benefits would probably not be as much as the dregs of history.
In short, Lin Qi himself is not a magic stick, but he is still willing to use the dead Zhao Kai, an "old friend", as a cover to offer advice to the country. Therefore, the prophecy of this book has been determined, and what needs to be done is to let some professionals deduce the process. Let the whole book be logically self-consistent, and after that, Lin Qi had the face to give the book to the country's leadership.
