Chapter 562: Expansion and Contraction

From the initial coincidence to the later deliberate star chasing, Liu Chang and Li Xuan have met several times, so Li Xuan can at least call his name.

"Liu Chang, have you venture capital companies also been invited to participate in the seminar, why didn't I see your top boss!" Li Xuan smiled kindly at Liu Chang, who came forward.

"Li Sheng, I invested in a project to develop memory modules last year, and the results have come to fruition this year! I have now resigned from Oriental Venture Capital and become the general manager of Feiyue Technology Co., Ltd." Liu Chang said very confidently in front of his former boss.

"It's Zheng Fei's project, right? At the beginning, Dean Yu of the research institute tried to keep him many times, but the result was still unsuccessful. In the end, I went out to talk to him in person, and found that although this kid has a shy personality, he still has his own ideas!" Li Xuan immediately guessed the other party's partner, and couldn't help but sigh.

With the rise of the Oriental Research Institute, the entire computer industry was completely subverted by Li Xuan, and many people and companies that he had never heard of in his previous life began to rise. For example, Zheng Fei, as he said, is one of the core R&D personnel of the memory R&D team of the Oriental Research Institute.

If the other party chooses to stay, it is normal for the annual salary to be millions of Hong Kong dollars. However, under the influence of Li Xuan's role model, many technicians like Zheng Fei in the Oriental Research Institute began to be unwilling to be willing to work in scientific research, but wanted to challenge a more magnificent life.

Li Xuan will not stop this normal flow of personnel, but will encourage it! These enterprises that have gone out from the Oriental Group to operate and establish themselves are naturally closer to the Oriental Group. Their rise will only further increase the influence of the Eastern Bloc in the entire computer industry!

Liu Chuanzhi on the side listened to the conversation between the two but was slightly surprised, this "God of Wealth Li" not only did not have any depression about the defection of his employees, but could still talk and laugh. has a bearing that ordinary people can't reach.

"Li Sheng, let me introduce you to you, this is Liu Chuanzhi, the general manager of Beijing Lianxiang Computer Company!" Liu Chang quickly introduced Liu Chuanzhi beside him to Li Xuan.

Lian Xiang, Liu Chuanzhi, Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and when he looked at the other party, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a unique smile. "China didn't even think about it. What will happen to the world?"

"Li Sheng, hello, I am Liu Chuanzhi of Beijing Computer New Technology Development Company, this is my business card, I am very honored to meet you!" Liu Chuanzhi, who is in his forties, is very respectful in front of Li Xuan, who is not yet 30 years old.

Li Xuan took the business card, which should have the name and address of the company, as well as Liu Chuanzhi's title and contact number. The most eye-catching thing is the four words in black and bold in the middle -- "Lenovo computer".

"Is it the brand of your computer?" Li Xuan asked deliberately.

As far as he knew, in another time and space, Lian thought about the origin of the company's name because of the vocabulary association function that they had developed in the early days of Hanka. But at this moment, there was no need for Lian Xiang Company to develop Hanka, so Li Xuan was very curious about why Liu Chuanzhi still intersected with the word "Lian Xiang".

At the beginning, Li Sheng's Oriental Application Software Company provided a Chinese Simplified Chinese version for Word software, making it possible to work paperless with Chinese characters!

But the Chinese input method that comes with the East-DOS operating system bears many traces of Taiwanese and Hong Kong dialects and word-making. Therefore, when we first assembled the ABC series compatible machine for sale, we deliberately wrote a Chinese input method that is more in line with the domestic specifications!

And our input method also deliberately added the phrase association function. So as to improve the user's typing efficiency! This association input method has become our company's biggest weapon to promote computers, so we later simply called our own computer brand 'Lianxiang'!"

Liu Chuanzhi explained in detail the origin of the brand "Lenovo Computer", which made Li Xuan only sigh at the strength of historical inertia.

"Mr. Li, I am very simple about your previous discussion about research-based enterprises, independent innovation is the best card for an enterprise in the fierce market competition!" Liu Chuanzhi seemed to be very touched and said.

This made Li Xuan laugh. You must know that Lianxiang Company in another time and space, there was a famous "Ni Liu Dispute" in the nineties, and Liu Chuanzhi, who finally chose to keep his market share first, successfully swept out Ni Guannan, who insisted on independent innovation.

But now Liu Chuanzhi has obviously made the opposite choice, and I have to say that Liu Chuanzhi can adapt to the actual situation of the company itself and the external market. He already has the potential to become a good entrepreneur.

In later generations, there were many people on the Internet who complained about Ni Guannan, but in Li Xuan's opinion, it was not. In another time and space, in 1994, Lianxiang Company was faced with the dissolution of Batumi and the removal of technical barriers for international computer brands to enter the Chinese market. The dire situation

With the strength of Lianxiang Company at that time, to fight for R&D strength with international giants is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg and seeking a dead end. Its most correct approach is undoubtedly to choose the Peach Wintel camp, relying on the price advantage to keep the low-end market first, so that it can survive!

In Li Xuan's view, Ni Guannan has too many idealistic tendencies that intellectuals take for granted. He always said that his company made switches earlier than Ren Zhengfei's Huawei company, and thought that even if he wanted to take the road of independent research and development, he could become another Huawei.

But he didn't expect that Lian Xiang was not a communications equipment manufacturer from the beginning, but a computer product supplier. The communication equipment market and the personal computer market are completely different, the former is a monopoly industry, while the latter is a free competition market.

On the one hand, the rise of Huawei Company stems from the state's vigilance against foreign-funded manufacturers, and on the other hand, it stems from Ren Zhengfei's personal ability and background. You must know that whether it is Liu Chuanzhi or Ni Guannan, there is no father-in-law who has been a high-ranking provincial official who can let him shine. On the contrary, the consumer electronics industry cannot be secretly supported by the state like the communication industry, so it is not easy for the company to survive!

Li Xuan felt that it was not wrong for Lian Xiang to take the route of "trade, industry and technology" in the nineties in another time and space, if he really let a scholar like Ni Guannan hold power, Li Xuan did not believe that Lian Xiang could go to the point where he did later.

However, now the external environment has changed, and because of the intervention of the Eastern Bloc, the domestic computer industry has developed earlier and more vigorously than in another time and space! Lian Xiang has keenly seized the opportunity and accumulated a certain amount of capital. (To be continued.) )
