Chapter 199: Domineering
At about ten o'clock, Li Xiang came again. This time, he didn't come in directly, but asked Secretary Liu to inform him. Knowing that the proprietress was here, he was also afraid of seeing things that he shouldn't see, although he also knew that it was impossible, but it was good to be careful.
"Boss, it's time to sign up, Mr. William, they are already waiting for you in the conference room. Li Xiang opened his mouth as soon as he entered the door, and he didn't even save saying hello, which showed that he was in a hurry.
"Well, Mr. Li, you go first! I'll be there later. Shen Danqing responded to him very easily. He wasn't in a hurry at all, because he knew that Dell was unlikely to give up the contract. Only when you have the strength to speak and do things can you have the toughness, so Shen Danqing has been immersed in farming, instead of jumping up and down outside early to have fun, he thinks that it is meaningless, and a false name is always a false name.
"Wife, you and I should sign a contract!" Shen Danqing asked the little girl who was accompanying her daughter.
"I'm not going, what kind of veneer is a foreigner. I don't want to deal with them. "I've never seen pork in the past few years, and I haven't seen a pig run! When I saw the meeting etiquette of those foreigners on TV, the little girl vomited, so she said this.
"Hahahaha! Okay, forget it if you don't go, wait for me here with your daughter!" Shen Danqing couldn't help laughing after listening to the little girl's words.
As soon as Shen Danqing walked into the conference room, William stood up and exaggeratedly exclaimed, "Mr. Shen, I'm so happy to see you." Your company's technology is super good, we are very satisfied. Of course, William spoke in English, which translates to meaning.
Shen Danqing smiled and said to him: "As long as you are satisfied, can't we officially sign the contract?"
"Oh! yes,......" William had something to say, but in order not to affect the signing, he held back. He took this signing very seriously, because he saw first-hand how good the computer samples that Changsheng Investment Group helped them OEM were. Whether it is in terms of technical content, workmanship quality, materials, etc., it has crushed the products of other computer companies. So he wanted Changsheng Investment Group to sign an exclusivity agreement, but he resisted, because he was afraid that in that case, Changsheng Investment Group would not sign a contract with them.
The signing ceremony was very simple and low-key, but Shen Danqing and William signed their names on behalf of Changsheng Investment Group and Dell respectively on the OEM contract, and no outsiders were present, let alone the media. However, in line with the wishes of both parties, Dell was afraid that it would expose the fact that Changsheng Investment Group helped them to do OEM, so that other companies would also come to the door. Shen Danqing didn't want Europe and the United States to know about the existence of Changsheng Investment Group too early. Because of computer products, they can't sell them in Europe and the United States anyway, so it's better to make a fortune in a muffled voice.
"Happy cooperation" After the two sides signed, Shen Danqing shook hands with William and said.
"It's a pleasure to work with," William replied. Then he said, "Can our company sign an exclusivity agreement with you?"
Shen Danqing said very calmly: "It's up to you, if you can keep this secret, then within two years, your company can monopolize this computer." ”
"Mr. Shen, don't worry, of course we are willing to keep this secret, it's good for us, isn't it?hahahahaha!" Listening to Shen Danqing's words, William happily made a guarantee.
"Mr. Shen, what about two years from now?" William then asked again.
"Two years later, of course, it was a new generation, and there was a new product. Shen Danqing said very humorously, and he skillfully diverted this sensitive topic away.
"I'm really looking forward to your company's technology upgrade in two years' time. William said with interest.
"I promise you won't be disappointed. Shen Danqing said with certainty.
The scale of the computer market in the past nine years is still very small, and the foundry of Changsheng Investment Group is a highly automated production line, so after William signed the contract, he waited for three days to see the first batch of products of Changsheng Investment Group leave the factory and send them to the United States before leaving Huizhou and returning to the United States.
"Mr. Dell, I promise you'll be hooked on this new computer from our company. William swore to Dale in his office. William at this time was like a child who was eager to prove that he had made no mistakes. William: They came back by plane, and of course there were no samples at this time.
"Of course I believe you, my friend. Tell me about the pros of this computer!" said Dale with a smile.
"There are many advantages, I can't say it for a while, but when you see it, you will know, that is, there is one point, I found that the hardware technology of the computer has far surpassed the software. Microsoft's indos95 and most of its software do not support high-pixel displays, which severely limits the performance of our computer. It's like a good boxer who is playing with someone with his hands and feet choked, and he is very depressed. ”
Hearing William's words, Dale was interested, so he asked him with great interest: "You mean that the performance of our computers far exceeds that of software technology?"
"Yes, Mr. Dale. William affirmed.
"William, my friend, how about we develop our own operating system, a system that can fully exploit the performance of our computers. Dale tried to ask William.
"But Mr. Dell, operating systems are difficult, we don't have the technology to do that. William shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said helplessly.
"We can buy an off-the-shelf system software company and build on it, and it's not that difficult. William, do you say yes?" Dale had an idea. It turned out that Dell saw that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to grasp both hard and soft like Apple.
"But the computers we ordered were developed on the platform of INDOS. William said helplessly.
"I'm not talking now, I'm talking about the future. You know what? Dale said with gusto.
William listened to Dale's words, touched his chin and thought for a moment before replying, "I think it's possible." That's a great idea, Mr. Dyer. ”
"And Mr. William, do you have an exclusivity agreement with them?" Dale asked a crucial question.
"I'm sorry, no. William replied with his hands outstretched. However, he added: "However, Mr. Shen of Changsheng Investment Group said that as long as we do not disclose the information, he guarantees that within two years, this computer will be exclusive to us." ”
Listening to William's words, Dale frowned and thought for a while before asking, "Is this reliable?"
"I don't think there's a problem. Mr. Shen told me that they are a Chinese company, and it is impossible for them to sell computers to Europe and the United States, so they are willing to manufacture computers for us! Otherwise, why don't they sell their own computers? William replied confidently.
"Yes, too. Let's think about how to publicize it. Dale decided to put the matter aside and focus on publicity.
In this way, history has taken a little fork, and in the future, Dell has become a closed computer company like Apple.
Guangdong in July has entered the height of summer. Spring Trading Co., Ltd. also began to vigorously publicize in Guangdong, "have a loving home, say goodbye to the heat", "frequency conversion energy saving, the world's leading" is their slogan. It's not easy! Finally, there is a product that can be sold in China.
It turned out to be an air conditioner, in the past nine years, the air conditioner is still very expensive, it is a few rich people can buy the commodity, a 1.5 hp split air conditioner, the price is as high as more than 20,000 yuan. Therefore, Changsheng Investment Group's Aijia brand air conditioner can also be sold in China, because more than 20,000 yuan, the profit is already very high, and they can also sell it.
This spring, all the influential TV media in Guangdong Province have advertised, which is really overwhelming. The glass curtain wall of Changsheng Building is also constantly interspersed with advertisements.
The effect is certainly obvious. With excellent power-saving performance and much more beautiful appearance than other air conditioners, this year's Japanese air conditioners are almost impossible to sell in Guangdong, and customers have chosen Aijia brand air conditioners. Especially in Huizhou, Aijia brand air conditioners have almost monopolized the entire market. Outsiders may not know, but locals don't know about Changsheng Investment Group. This is a company that creates international brand-name products, so local customers choose Aijia brand air conditioners regardless of the reason. So much so that Japanese brands such as Hitachi and Panasonic have not sold a single one, which can be said to be lost.
This is just a small test of Changsheng Investment Group, and the tiger is full of domineering when it shows a little tiger whisker, and it will be trumpeted by similar foreign products. Also, Changsheng Investment Group was originally an international aircraft carrier giant. Now that we have started to promote products in China, it is not like a tiger. It is a pity that other products cannot be sold in China, because other products do not have such high profits, and the products of Changsheng Investment Group are not cheap!
In fact, as early as June, when NB Trading Co., Ltd. was promoting Aijia brand appliances in the world market, several major electrical appliance manufacturing giants in Japan noticed it, and they bought a few products to study them. As we all know, the Japanese are the best people who learn from the strengths of others. But when they dismantled the refrigeration compressors of the air conditioner and refrigerator, they were dumbfounded. Inside is actually a turbo compression like an aircraft engine, no wonder it is so quiet. They are electrical appliance companies, not heavy industry groups, and they have no reserves for this kind of technology, so they have no way to start! Of course, there are exceptions, that is, Mitsubishi Electromechanical Corporation. They also have aircraft engines, but they are carefully studied and experimented. I found that I didn't have such a high level of craftsmanship. So in the end, it didn't work, and the result was that it could not be imitated. I sighed even more at that AMOLED screen, and I didn't even have the idea of imitating it.
As a result, they all know that NB Trading Co., Ltd. is a large company with strong scientific and technological strength, so in the international market, their products are separated by a price grade from the products of NB Trading Co., Ltd., so there are also many markets. Because Shen Danqing stipulates that it only occupies 20/100 of the high-end market, other brands still have room for survival, but the profits have shrunk a lot, because the high-end market is firmly occupied by the Aijia brand!
