Chapter 8: What a Hypocrisy This Young Man Is!

"I think Yang always wants to hear how you can expand your influence in China if you and I cooperate, right?"

Qingyun's straightforwardness made Yang Xu smile bitterly.

What's the matter, in the end, am my Yang Xu Yudu cub, or are you Xiaoqing?

Don't you hide it?

In the face of Qingyun's straight fist, Yang Xu smiled, "Mr. Xiaoqing, Intel is responsible for designing and building key technologies, and has always taken the 'industrial collaboration' architecture ecosystem as its own development philosophy, and has always focused on the common development of Huaguo's national policy, the common innovation of industrial development, and the latest and best experience for the people's intelligent life."

The core of this negotiation is the architecture authorization of the BIOS. We are very much looking forward to working with you and Yanhuang Group, but we need to know your development ideas. ”

His eyes were full of banter at the moment.

If you play straight punches, I'll retreat.

Young man, you still have a lot to learn.

Qingyun also laughed, "It's actually very simple, Ming people don't say secret words, and I don't like to go around in circles, just like our corporate promotional video, Yanhuang Group will be committed to the young people market, and strive for young people to get richer personalized products and application experiences." ”

Retreat is retreat!

In the past, every day at school, retreats, he did not miss it.

Yang Xu suddenly cried and laughed, "Mr. Xiaoqing, if you say so, we can't talk about further cooperation at all!"

As far as I know, you have not taken action in the construction of retail channels so far, but you have done a lot of work in the field of centralized procurement. ”

This young man ......

It's so hypocritical!

Qingyun sighed, and then looked at Yang Xu with a playful smile, "Mr. Yang, is there a possibility, I'm waiting for your official release of Dothan second-generation technology next year?" ”

Yang Xu was stunned for a moment.

Qingyun is not at all surprised to know Intel's technology in the coming year, after all, Intel's product roadmap can be said to be almost universally known.

In order to maximize profits, each generation of products has a complete life cycle, and many enterprises in the industrial chain can also arrange production capacity according to the plan, which is the practice of the industry.

But......

Yang Xu scratched his hair, "Mr. Xiaoqing, will your view on the laptop market be too optimistic?"

After all, the national conditions of our country are like this, and the sales of electronic products such as laptops, which often cost tens of thousands, will not be very high.

It's the future, and that's true, but laptops are far from the time to start becoming popular.

And you're targeting a young market, a dynamic market with purchasing power to grow.

Of course, you may want to say Xingtianxia Group's Shenzhou computer, which released its first notebook product in March this year for only 5999 yuan.

But the market proved that its sales were not as good as predicted, and it has sold less than 5,000 units so far.

After all, laptops are synonymous with high-end business, and cheap laptops that are forcibly spelled out with DIY concepts are just industrial garbage. ”

Yang Xu felt that this young man was a little floating.

Although Qingyun was deeply impressed by the strategy shown by Qingyun in mergers and acquisitions, it seems that his practical ability to operate his business is very worrying.

Just like the archmage of Jian Libao at the moment, he has low eyes and advanced concepts, but he can't implement it.

This kind of person is only suitable for playing with capital, but not for industry.

He thinks that this negotiation is like this, the chips can be sold, the motherboard can be sold, and the BIOS transfer is over.

It's a waste.

Give resources, this kid can't catch it at all.

The corners of Qingyun's mouth twitched when he heard this, "Mr. Yang, is it possible that you will take the initiative to reduce the price of the Centrino chipset next year?" ”

Yang Xu smiled, "Hahaha! Xiaoqing is always joking. ”

A young man who doesn't know the height of the sky!

Looking at the smiling Qingyun, Yang Xu paused, trying to restrain his smile, "Intel's purpose in formulating the product roadmap is to maximize profits.

The positioning of the laptop does not allow Intel to pull down the price of the Centrino chipset.

Even if the consumer market develops in the next few years, Intel will launch products with different performance and different prices in the entire laptop market, just like desktops, to target two different markets: business and consumer.

Centrino technology, in the short term, represents the most high-end technology level of Intel, and there is no possibility of price reduction. ”

Qingyun also laughed, "Mr. Yang said with a smile, let me give you an example, ThinkPad is the best notebook This is the consensus of the market."

In 2001, the T21 top laptop was sold for 50,008 units, and the T23 top configuration released this year was 28,000 yuan, and the price went down by more than half.

As long as the market sentiment is in place, there is nothing that cannot be reduced. ”

Yang Xu shrugged his shoulders, "This is the side of Moore's Law, it's normal, but Mr. Xiaoqing, you have to understand that there is a certain limit."

28,000 Chinese dollars is equivalent to 3,500 US dollars according to foreign exchange prices, but the purchasing power of 1 Chinese dollar and 1 US dollar in the country is about the same.

Even if we assume that Moore's Law is still valid in terms of price, the current price of $3,500 will drop to $1,750 next year.

Frankly speaking, this price can be sold in the beautiful country, in Europa, and last year the per capita disposable income in the beautiful country was 13,500 US dollars, which is a small amount of money for them.

And you have to admit that foreign financial policies are much more flexible than ours, and under the 36-issue policy, it is only a few tens of dollars a month for them.

But in Huaguo, even if I drop it again, it won't be able to sell many units.

Last year, our national per capita annual disposable income was only 4,500 yuan, and excluding the rural population, the per capita annual disposable income was 8,472 yuan.

And a laptop with 1,750 US dollars is equivalent to about 14,000 Chinese dollars, how many people in China can afford to buy it?

Why, then, did we ...... China at that time? What about excess price reductions?

I even think that it is feasible to increase the price appropriately, anyway, there are so many people who can afford it, in business, why not make excess profits? ”

Guo Jing, Dai Lihui and others on the side heard this.

Guo Jing really wants to scold a traitor, what this bald man said is really annoying!

But he also knows very well that what Yang Xu is talking about is the current truth.

This is price discrimination.

Who called them poor?

Qingyun is even clearer, from a few years ago, to today, in the next ten years, the cheapest way to buy a ThinkPad is to buy the American version of the machine carried back by international students, followed by the 'parallel imports' from other countries.

It is true that the poorer the poorer.
