Chapter 756 - Performance hits a new high

At the end of December 1992, Pangu Computer Technology Standards were opened and Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. operated independently. These two things can be described as earth-shattering events for the new venture electronics group.

After all, although the profits of the new entrepreneurship department are relatively diversified, we have to admit that the profits contributed by the Pangu computer business still play a pivotal role.

With the independent operation of Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., this part of the profits will no longer be handed over. Xinchuang Electronics Group can only share the operating dividends of Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. through equity dividends.

Being able to make such a big determination, and spin off the business with a net profit of more than 30 billion yuan per year from the parent company, it can be seen how determined Lin Qi is.

It can even be said that even if Pangu Computer Company is spun off and operates independently, in fact, the current industry of the group still revolves around the ecology created by Pangu Computer as the core.

For example, the sales scale of the game software business of the new venture electronics group exceeded 10 billion US dollars and contributed nearly 4 billion US dollars in net profit. But the reason why the game business can generate such huge profits is also because Pangu computers have nearly 300 million users around the world.

The huge software consumption market formed by these users makes the profits of the software part of the new venture electronics group grow rapidly, and can even gradually rely on the profits of the software not by hardware, but by the profits of software, to maintain the company's operation.

Other CD-ROMs, Monitors, Hard Disks, CPUs, SSDs, Memory, Graphics Cards...... These hardware products can become bigger and stronger, mainly relying on Pangu computers, and Pangu computers are both prosperous and loss-making.

After the technical standards of Pangu Computer were opened, the dependence of these products related to Pangu ecology on Pangu Computer Division was reduced. As long as the overall market share of the Pangu camp does not decrease, then the software and hardware ecology can get a market cake from it.

Of course, although there are more compatible machine manufacturers to support the Pangu ecosystem, Lin Qi has not given up his support for Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. These supports, not limited to Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., can be exempted from patent licensing fees. More importantly, Lin Qi pointed out a new goal and a new direction for Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., and other compatible machine manufacturers may fight in the personal computer market.

Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., on the one hand, continues to sell Pangu computers with the help of brand advantages. On the other hand, it is quietly developing new markets such as dedicated computers and servers.

Specialized computers, such as graphics workstations, are actually a type of minicomputer, but they are cheaper than minicomputers. Servers, on the other hand, strengthen the stability of the network and hardware, which is very different from personal computers.

While PC sales continued to decline, the server market continued to grow. Because, even in the era of mobile Internet, people's demand for Internet services is only increasing. Therefore, the server market may be more able to enjoy the Internet dividend.

"The personal computer market ushered in a new era, following IBM's open PC standards, which detonated the era of PC compatible machines in the 80s. After more than 10 years, the main competitor of the PC camp, Xinchuang Electronics Group, also announced the opening of Pangu computer technology standards. Manufacturers such as Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Sony responded positively and actively laid out the Pangu compatible machine market......

With the opening of technical standards, Xinchuang Electronics Group spun off its computer business and established an independent subsidiary, Pangu Computer Co., Ltd.

Although, backed by the parent company Xinchuang Electronics Group, Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. has technical advantages and brand advantages. However, according to industry analysts, as more compatible machine manufacturers provide different choices, the market is bound to gradually diverge. Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. has the hidden danger of declining market share and even annual decline in revenue and profit in the future.

In response to the concerns of industry insiders, Gao Tian, CEO of Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., said: "I am not too worried about compatibility and competition with our business. In addition to the support of the parent company's market, channels and funds, Pangu Computer itself has launched 7 generations of products for more than 10 years. No generation of products has sold less than 20 million units. After the 4th generation, the sales of each generation of products have not been less than 50 million units. Over the years, we have been leading in computer performance and innovation. Relying on the leadership in technology and innovation, we bucked the trend and shared the market with the once strong competitor such as the PC. Now, naturally, we won't lose to Pangu compatible machines...... At the same time, Pangu's after-sales service is not comparable to other computer brands. We are the only one that can provide a global warranty, in any region of the world to buy a Pangu computer, in the after-sales period, as long as it is not war, natural disasters, road blockades and other irresistible factors, we will provide door-to-door service within 72 hours. At this point, not to mention the computer market, it is difficult for any home appliance and consumer goods to provide better after-sales service than us!'"

After a wave of publicity in the media, Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. held a month-long promotion to celebrate the establishment of the company.

Consumers around the world can make two preferential choices, one of which is any Pangu console, and the retail price will be reduced by 10%. Another option is to extend the after-sales service by two years, and the three-year after-sales service will be upgraded to five years of after-sales.

Of course, only between 28/12/92 and 28/01/93, after the promotion, the original price will be restored.

I have to say that the brand influence accumulated by Pangu Computer over the years has still played a role. At present, Pangu compatible machine manufacturers around the world have not made any efforts, even if they have placed orders and are assembling products. It still takes months to get the goods on the shelves.

Pangu Computer is taking advantage of this time to engage in a wave of promotions.

"The price of Pangu 7th generation computers has been reduced again!"

"That...... Don't wait for a compatible machine?"

"Don't wait.,The compatible machine is just a different configuration.,If you need it in the future.,You can change the hardware configuration.。 ”

"Do you choose five years of after-sales, or do you choose 10% off? That's the question......

Consumers all over the world are still very realistic, and after seeing the price reduction of Pangu computers, many of them have joined the army of rushing to buy Pangu computers without waiting for the compatible machines to be listed. At present, the sales of the 6th and 7th generations of the main models have skyrocketed, and the monthly sales of the two main models have increased to more than 2 million units.

At the same time, the 1st and 2nd generations of Pangu learning machines in the low-price market also rely on the price of only 200~300 US dollars, and the monthly sales volume exceeds 10 million units.

Learn the 1st and 2nd generation machines, which are essentially simplified versions of the Pangu 3 and Pangu 4 machines. The obsolete machines that originally launched the ranks of the main models can also capture the low-end market in the name of learning machines.

Seeing the potential of Pangu learning machine in the low-end market, at the same time, Gaotian took advantage of the trend to change the Pangu 5th generation and renamed it the 3rd generation of learning, and the price was reduced to 499 US dollars. As a result, the Pangu 5 generation, which had already had weak sales, was renamed the 3rd generation of learning, and the monthly sales soared from less than 700,000 units to more than 2 million units.

As for the end of December, the headquarters building of Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. has been flying colorful flags - "Celebration, Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., annual sales reached a new high, with sales exceeding 100 million units in 92." "Celebration, Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., monthly sales hit a record high, in December 92, the overall sales exceeded 15 million units!", "New company, new journey, our future is to continue to innovate and continue to grow......"

A series of business methods have made Pangu Computer Co., Ltd. achieve results after independent operation, breaking the pessimistic expectations of many people.

As a result, many people began to worry about those compatible machine manufacturers, under the pressure of such a strong Pangu Computer Co., Ltd., can they really gain living space?
