Chapter 17 Learning from Dell
Working overtime today, everyone worked until 9 o'clock in the evening.
Zhao Ye counted today's orders.
On this day alone, about 1,500 hankas were ordered across the country, but this may seem like a lot, but it is also during the beginning of this period that sales will skyrocket.
Many people buy Hanka, in fact, they want to be a second-class dealer, taking advantage of the information gap to earn the difference in price. When these people sell the Hanka, the process takes time.
After this period of research, Zhao Ye found that the strength of dealers across the country is uneven, and qualified dealers cannot be found in many cities.
He just wanted to get a dealer agent conference and couldn't do it.
No way, it's 1984, and there are still relatively few private entrepreneurs, even if they are down, until the mid-to-late 80s and early 90s. At this time, the "inverted master" was once popular all over the country, especially in the capital area.
For example, the "generation of fallen masters" who exchanged canned food for airplanes was imprisoned in 1983 because the business of buying and selling was discovered~
He was later released and only came to Chongqing with his team in 1985, where he decided to make a comeback after examining the business environment. Since then, the legend of one of the generations of Mu has officially kicked off.
Zhao Ye couldn't help but sigh that in the eighties, there were countless domestic business opportunities, but there were also many difficulties.
However, take everything one step at a time and take it slowly.
First, the sales channels in the first-tier cities will be completely opened, and then expanded to the second- and third-tier cities.
As we all know, one of the main reasons for Dell's success is that it bypassed the middleman and adopted a direct sales order model.
At present, there are few powerful companies in China that can be the distributors of Imagination Technology Company.
Therefore, Zhao Ye thought twice and decided to adopt the direct sales model and open stores all over the country.
Although the financial aspect may be tight at the beginning, once successful, Imagination Technology can have an advantage over its competitors, achieve the goal of "low cost + high efficiency + good service", and win the love of consumers.
Of course, the time is not ripe enough, mainly because of the lack of personnel training and reserves, and the serious lack of modern management personnel. Blind expansion may not only cause the capital chain to break, but also cause problems in the company's system.
You must know that when a company develops to a certain scale, it must move from human rule to system management. The limit of human rule is 300 people in management, and as long as there are more than 300 people in this company, even if the chairman works 24 hours a day, he can't manage it, and he must rely on the system. However, many companies are developing too fast, and the system can't keep up with the management of people, so there are big mistakes, and in the end, the embankment of thousands of miles collapses in the anthill.
On the way home, Zhao Yedu had already considered where to open his first Imagine flagship store in Zhongguancun......
……
The next day.
Zhao Ye first went to the Capital Radio 18 Factory to learn about the production of Hanka.
With more and more orders, Zhao Ye must ensure that the production is smooth.
Soon, Zhao Ye arrived at the factory.
"If the foundry of the Capital Radio 18 Factory is not doing well, I will invest in building a factory by myself, and there should be a lot of people in Shenzhen who have the way to get imported chips and memories."
"Like the Z80 and EPROM, there are no restrictions, as long as you have money, you can buy it."
"For example, the Z80 microprocessor, although powerful, is not a cutting-edge technology, and costs only $30. Now the renminbi is very valuable, and officially, the exchange rate of the US dollar to the renminbi is one to one. ”
Zhao Ye thought about it while coming to the Hanka production workshop.
The production workshop is not large, with only twenty or thirty people working on the assembly line.
Zhao Ye walked behind these workers and watched their operations, and everyone was very skilled in circuit board soldering skills.
But to be honest, the production of Hanka is really simple, Zhao Ye checked the finished product, and basically the yield rate reached 100%.
Liu Zhan, the director of the factory, was not very excited at the moment, and with the increase of Hanka orders, the OEM income skyrocketed.
OEM a piece of Hanka, Kyoto Radio 18 Factory can earn a profit of about 300 yuan.
"Director Liu, Hanka is ushering in a wave of peak period at the moment, and there can be no problem with the production task, and many customers are urging me to deliver the goods as soon as possible. You see, is it better to arrange a little more manpower to come over and increase the production speed of Hanka. ”
"No problem, I'll send another 20 people!"
"Then thank you Director Liu!"
"You're welcome, the more Han cards produced, the more money our factory can make, a win-win situation for everyone!"
"Haha, that's right, win-win!!"
Zhao Ye smiled and nodded.
A win-win situation is a win-win situation, but Zhao Ye took precautions and made some preparations.
Although the production of Hanka is currently handed over to the Kyoto Radio 18 Factory, including the procurement of electronic components, Zhao Ye still recruited two buyers and asked them to inquire about the channels for purchasing electronic components.
After leaving Kyoto Radio 18 Factory, Zhao Ye went directly to Imagination Technology Company.
When I arrived at the company, it was still full of people and bustling.
Zhao Ye squeezed into the door, and saw that the company's employees were dedicated to their duties and received customers very seriously, and he couldn't help but show a smile on his face.
"Boss, the People's Daily has been bought back and placed on your desk!" When Fu Xiaoyue saw Zhao Ye, she opened her mouth to remind.
"Well, okay, I see, you can get busy."
After Zhao Ye finished speaking, he walked straight to his office, and after coming to the office, he picked up the newspaper and quickly rummaged through the reports related to him.
"20 years old, the birth of a millionaire! 》
As soon as Zhao Ye saw this title, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
It is rumored that there is a pig killing list in China.
I'm afraid that this millionaire is not a rare super-rich person in China.
In a society with a per capita income of dozens of yuan, he is a millionaire, and he is hated by others!
Of course, some people hate the rich, and some people will worship.
Perhaps, the younger generation in China will see themselves as idols.
Bill Gates of the East?
It seems that the current Bill Gates is not very famous.
In 1986, when Microsoft was listed on the NASDAQ, its net worth at that time was only $2 million, but Apple's Steve Jobs was already famous, and many people in China knew him.
Zhao Ye quickly read the text of the article, and its general content was basically the same as the question asked during the interview, but the language was slightly modified. The article describes Zhao Ye as a super genius who uses technology to create wealth, and his image is still relatively positive.
Next to the article, there is also a handsome profile photo of Zhao Ye, with a knife and axe, with clear outlines, exuding full charm.
……
Zhejiang University, senior student dormitory.
A man with glasses looked at the report on Zhao Ye in the "People's Daily", and his mood was difficult to calm down for a long time: "A small Hanka can make people become millionaires in just a few months, it's incredible......"
"If I could also invent a hanka, wouldn't I be able to make so much money?"
For the first time, the man with glasses is stimulated by money, which arouses the desire in his heart......
Then he wrote a sentence in his diary: Shi Yuzhu, you can too!
