Chapter 367: Fight a battle to turn around

Li Yunhai followed Shen Xiulan to the dormitory building.

Shen Xiulan pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "Why don't you go home and tell her, just leave with me?" ”

Li Yunhai smiled and didn't speak.

After coming to her residence, Shen Xiulan took out the wool slippers specially prepared for him and changed them for him.

In Xizhou in March, it was still cool at night, and Shen Xiulan didn't make a fire much because she was only at home at night, so she took a blanket and covered her legs when it was cold.

She took out a stack of materials and handed them to Li Yunhai, and said: "You haven't participated in the study organized by the Chengjiao Center, this is the study materials and papers I helped you get back, you can take a look at it, if you can't pass the graduation exam, then you will be finished." ”

Li Yunhai didn't take the roll, but directly grabbed her hand and pulled it into his arms.

Shen Xiulan stood unsteadily and fell into his arms.

"Sea of Clouds!" Shen Xiulan struggled to stand up, but was pressed to death by Li Yunhai.

"Don't make a fuss!" Shen Xiulan said, "I'm not feeling well. ”

Li Yunhai snorted, let her get up stupidly, and said, "Then you still call me over?" ”

"We can't have a normal relationship with each other except for that? You came to me, and you just wanted to do that? Shen Xiulan said depressedly, "That's all I can do?" ”

Li Yunhai smiled awkwardly: "I miss you." ”

Shen Xiulan picked up a blanket by the sofa, covered his lap, and said, "I didn't run again, I'm here every day, you just want me to come and see me." I'll get down to business with you. ”

Li Yunhai lifted the corner of the blanket and put it on her, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Xiulan said with a serious face: "There is no money in the company's account. ”

Li Yunhai frowned and said, "I know." This time I ordered from Intel, purchased the license, and emptied my wallet. ”

Shen Xiulan's briefcase was placed next to her, she took it and opened it, took out a stack of financial reports, put it in his hand, and said, "Take a look!" The income and expenditure are all here. The company has encountered a major crisis! There are several more projects under construction! How do you say? In the Sihai Center in Xizhou, we paid 300 million yuan in the early stage, and they have used it up and asked us for the second installment. The demolition work of Beijin Sihai Square is about to be completed, and we will also allocate the first phase of the project. And Xiangjiangβ€”"

Li Yunhai did not look through the account books.

The company's account is all in his heart, and he knows it as well as Shen Xiulan.

No money!

Who would have thought that Sihai Group, which used to be king of cash, would be overstretched.

Shen Xiulan said softly: "Yunhai, tighten up the project!" We are making office equipment, what is the use of investing in so many buildings? It's billions or billions of dollars spent! With a hammer here and a stick there, we can't do a good job in a project. The headquarters of Sihai is in Xizhou, so let's build the Sihai Center in Xizhou with our hearts, sell the projects in Beijin and Xiangjiang, and free up funds, okay? ”

Li Yunhai thought for a while and said: "Xizhou's project, if you let them continue, I will talk to Mei Jiping and let them advance funds for us to build first." We still have revenue in China, and it is not a problem to earn tens of millions of dollars every month, and we will have money in two months. ”

Shen Xiulan asked: "For the project in Xizhou, the Provincial Construction and Engineering Bureau can advance funds first, what about Beijin and Xiangjiang?" ”

Li Yunhai was silent for a while and said, "I'll figure it out." ”

Shen Xiulan said: "Also, the expenses of the scientific research institute are really too big, more than 300 people, just the salary and bonus, how much do you calculate for a month?" You're either going to downsize your staff or you're going to lower their wages. How can there be such a high salary? The annual salary is 100,000 yuan at every turn, and the annual salary expenses alone are 30 million! And that's just the salary of a research institute! ”

Li Yunhai said calmly: "This can't be reduced!" The research institute is the foundation of our Sihai Group. Without this group of researchers, we would not have survived. ”

Shen Xiulan said: "Our company did very well before! Just open an office equipment store, it's also very profitable, and there is no debt! ”

Li Yunhai said: "Xiulan, if we only feel at ease as a second-hand dealer, then we can cancel the scientific research institute." But have you ever thought about how far you can go on such a road? How big can our business be? We may not even be able to build a center for the four seas. May Day Article? Covin? They're doing a good enough job, right? And how much money did you make? ”

Shen Xiulan mainly does financial work, and her foreign language learning ability is also very strong, but her control of the overall situation of the enterprise is obviously not as good as Li Yunhai.

However, her worries are also real, and only she will discuss these things with Li Yunhai.

Lin Zhi is in charge of personnel, and his understanding and opinions on these matters are not as good as Shen Xiulan.

Li Yunhai took Intel as an example: "Intel invested $300 million in research and development of 386!" And hundreds of millions of dollars have been invested in the research of 486 chips! Their market value now reaches more than $300 billion! This is what scientific research brings to them. ”

Shen Xiulan said: "Okay, let's not talk about the matter of the scientific research institute." The Sihai Square in Beijin, as well as the mansion in Xiangjiang, I suggest you find a way to deal with it. I only have one sentence anyway, the company has no money. You are relaxed, where do you want to use the money, call me, and say Xiulan, you call hundreds of millions over there in Beijin, and you call hundreds of millions over in Xizhou! Where do I get my money? I'm not a hen that lays golden eggs! ”

Li Yunhai heard her say funny, and laughed: "Even if you can lay golden eggs, I can't let you keep laying them!" ”

Laughing and laughing, this problem of funds really stumped Li Yunhai.

It turned out that everything was well planned, because the 386 chip could not be authorized, and everything was disrupted.

Li Yunhai can only find another good plan.

Shen Xiulan proposed: "Either the projects in Xiangjiang and Beijin will be suspended, and we will restart them when we are financially relieved." ”

Li Yunhai said: "It's also a good way!" I'll take care of the money thing! ”

Shen Xiulan said: "Yunhai, you really don't need to put so much pressure on yourself. Let's just keep our business. ”

Li Yunhai held her hand, put it to his lips and kissed it, and said, "Okay, I'm measured, thank you for helping me think about these problems." ”

The two talked about it after eleven o'clock, and Li Yunhai returned home.

Lin Zhi had already fallen asleep, and when he heard him open the door, he woke up, yawned and asked, "Where have you been?" ”

Li Yunhai said: "Xiulan called me to talk about things. She said that there was no money in the company's account, and several projects asked her to urge her to pay for the project. ”

Lin Zhi sighed: "What should I do then?" ”

Li Yunhai said: "I'll deal with it!" Don't bother with that. ”

Lin Zhi sat up, leaned on the head of the bed, and said, "Yunhai, the company has such a big problem now, should we tighten the development of some projects?" ”

Li Yunhai smiled: "You have the same idea as Xiulan. I'll take care of this, and you can give birth to the child with peace of mind. ”

He took a shower and went to bed, pillowing his hands, thinking about where to get the money?

Don't look at him speaking extremely calmly in front of two women, in fact, he has no score in his heart.

If the project in Xiangjiang is sold, at least 1 billion yuan of funds can be withdrawn to solve the urgent need.

But such a good land, as long as it is built, there will be money to be made, and Li Yunhai is reluctant.

Why don't you sell some of your shares?

Now that the U.S. and Hong Kong stocks have just recovered, the stock prices are not too high on the whole, and it is not wise to sell the shares now.

Working with Lee Kar-shing?

Li Yunhai felt that he couldn't bear this person, and he didn't dare to cooperate with him on big projects rashly.

Just like Li Jiacheng will not cooperate with Li Yunhai on office equipment, because the other party can't bear these projects either.

Li Yunhai felt that instead of selling the assets in his hands, it was better to make blood!

That is, to make money!

Finding a way to make more money is the right way to go.

I don't know how long it took for Li Yunhai to fall asleep.

After going to work the next day, Li Yunhai held a meeting of the company's executives.

Because of the impact of chip restrictions, Sihai Group can only recoup funds by selling more "blue ocean home computers".

The typewriter market has reached a saturation level, because this kind of product is too professional, and most people don't need it.

The introduction of translators and learning machines has been a boom, but it can only make a small profit, and these products are easy to imitate.

For the current Sihai Group, earning millions or tens of millions can no longer quench its thirst.

Li Yunhai urgently needs to fight a turnaround!

So he set his sights on the Blue Ocean home computer.

This is a new low-cost computer launched by Sihai Group after the alien computer.

Blue Ocean computer is oriented to home users, and all parts are localized, so the price can be the lowest.

Li Yunhai said at the meeting: "Before the Spring Canton Fair, our task is to fully promote the blue ocean computer, and we want to set up a plan to let every household in our country have a blue ocean computer!" ”

When everyone heard this, they were all in good spirits.

Li Yunhai said: "Our goal is to sell 1 million Blue Ocean computers!" The Hannover Electronics Show is about to start, we have already registered, I tell you, in this exhibition, we must find ways to open more bills! In addition, all the advertisements we cooperate with in various media are replaced by blue ocean computers! ”

Everyone was stunned.

1,000,000 Blue Ocean PCs!

Each unit sells for 10,000 yuan, which is 10 billion yuan!

With 10% of the net profit, you can earn 1 billion yuan!

Li Yunhai said: "The domestic computer market has entered a period of strong demand, and the Ministry of Education has issued a document to let computers enter all primary and secondary schools in the country!" We don't care about the countryside, and our purchasing power is limited. However, we must occupy the educational position in the major cities! Our slogan is, a computer that every family can afford! The learning machine we developed before was a success, and the total sales of the learning machine reached more than 600,000 units! I believe that our computer will definitely sell much more than the learning machine! ”

Zhao Jinping said: "Mr. Li, can we find cooperation with the education department? ”

Li Yunhai said: "If you can find this kind of cooperation, it is your ability!" Mr. Zhao, I will hand over the domestic market to you, and we will shoot the advertising of Blue Ocean Computer within three days! The slogan is used: a computer that every student can afford! ”

Zhao Jinping said: "Mr. Li, it is indeed cheaper to have a 10,000-yuan computer, but it is not easy to sell 1 million units. ”

Li Yunhai said: "There is no difficulty, how can we be stressed?" Our company is now facing the biggest crisis! Lack of money, comrades! ”

Zhao Jinping said: "Our marketing department will go all out!" ”

Li Yunhai said: "Please ask Chen Hong to shoot the advertisement!" Speed contact CCTV's advertising department and Chen Hong, you must shoot it in the next few days. ”

Jiang Zhijun asked: "Mr. Li, how long will it take to sell 1 million units of the sales you mentioned?" ”

Li Yunhai raised a finger: "One year!" ”

Everyone was in one place.

One year!

Sell 1 million computers?

That's crazy, isn't it?

Li Yunhai said: "The Hannover Exhibition is led by me personally. Also, reach out to all of our dealers and tell them about it! We want to establish a belief that we are not selling computers, we are helping every family to use the most cost-effective computers! ”

Everyone laughed.

Li Yunhai said calmly: "Don't laugh! We must first establish this belief in ourselves! We are selling the best products to the people who need them most! ”

The crowd stopped laughing.

Li Yunhai clapped his palms and said, "Okay, go your separate ways!" Don't waste a minute! ”

Everyone got up and left.

Many distributors of Sihai Group have placed orders for computers before, but they have canceled their computer orders because of the delay in delivery of chips.

Sihai Group now only has enough 286 chips, and the only one that can ship in large quantities is only Blue Ocean Computer.

The company contacted all dealers at home and abroad to recommend Blue Ocean Computer to them.

The overseas price of this computer is $2,499, and the wholesale price is only $2,000, which is half the cheapest Dragon PC before!

Li Yunhai faxed the appearance and configuration of the computer to the dealers.

The shell design of the blue ocean computer adopts blue and white, and the chassis and display all adopt a relatively fashionable curve design, which is aimed at family and student users.

The super high cost performance touched the hearts of dealers.

Coupled with the advertising support of Sihai Group's upcoming launch, dealers have confidence in this computer.

In the afternoon of the same day, the marketing department of Sihai Group received a lot of order calls.

The dealer has cooperated with Sihai Group for several years, and knows that Sihai Group's products, each of which is very popular, and the product quality is absolutely excellent!

So many people place orders, all of them are 5,000 units, 10,000 units.

In the evening, Sihai Group was still working overtime to contact overseas customers.

Li Yunhai personally contacted more than a dozen major customers such as Hebrew, Mary, and Mike.

He explained in detail to Hebrew and others the configuration and advantages of this computer.

Li Yunhai has explained to customers more than once that this is the cheapest 286 computer in the world!

Hebrew made a suggestion: "Mr. Li, I'm very optimistic about this blue ocean computer, but can you use the alien icon?" Although your company can't produce high-end alien computers for the time being, this trademark is yours, and the advertising you asked MJ to play continues. It would be a shame if you guys didn't take advantage of this trademark! ”

Li Yunhai pondered for a while and said: "Mr. Hebrew, our positioning of the alien computer is the most fashionable, fastest, and most powerful computer, but the configuration of this blue ocean computer is far from sorry for such a positioning. It's not easy to build a brand, even if it can't be sold for a while, we can't destroy it. ”

Hebrew did not insist any longer, but said solemnly: "It can be seen that Mr. Li, you are an entrepreneur who works hard to make a brand, and I am very willing to support you." Blue Ocean Computer, I order 100,000 units! A total of 200 million US dollars in payment, I will call you at one time, please ship it as soon as possible! ”

At this moment, Li Yunhai's eyes were so moved that his eyes were sour.

"Thank you, Mr. Hebrew, for your support of our work, and we will certainly live up to your trust! We will definitely come up with the most cost-effective products for you. ”

"Mr. Li, I am very happy to cooperate with such an excellent company as yours. After you were suppressed by Intel, you were able to adjust your strategy immediately and come up with such amazing computer products! I wish you all a safe passage through this difficult time. ”

"Thank you for your blessings!"

Mike and Mary, they are both distributors of Sihai Group, although there are no high-end computers to sell for the time being, but other products are also selling very well.

So they are also full of confidence in Blue Ocean Computer.

Mary placed an order for 20,000 units.

Mike purchased 10,000 units.

Other foreign businessmen have also purchased 10,000 or 20,000 Blue Ocean computers.

Like they say, such a cheap computer will definitely sell well!

Li Yunhai and the others were busy until twelve o'clock in the evening.

To everyone's shock, Blue Ocean Computer has been collectively loved by dealers!

Zhao Jinping came to report the results to Li Yunhai.

"Mr. Li, we have received an order for 150,000 Blue Ocean computers in China!"

"150,000 units? Not bad! Li Yunhai said with a smile, "What about other foreign businessmen overseas?" ”

He is only responsible for contacting large distributors, and those foreign businessmen who have only cooperated once are all handed over to the marketing department.

Zhao Jinping said: "There are also 50,000 units!" We have received orders for a total of 200,000 units! ”

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "Not only that, I still have a few big orders here." There are 200,000 units in total! ”

Received orders for 400,000 units on the same day!

Among them, Hebrew alone ordered 100,000 units!

After hearing this, Zhao Jinping said with a smile: "Mr. Li, we can complete the goal of 1 million units you set!" ”

Li Yunhai said in high spirits: "I said, as long as we work hard, we will definitely be able to create miracles!" ”

Zhao Jinping said: "Mr. Li, my peers are waiting to see our jokes!" I've also heard that people are waiting to see how we die! As a result, instead of dying, we made a new achievement! All of this is because of your leadership, Mr. Li! ”

Li Yunhai said: "Even if we can sell 1 million units, we can only earn 1 billion yuan!" It's not enough! And that's our achievement for a year! ”

The previous dealer, all of a sudden, did not have Sihai computers to sell, so they would support the new Blue Ocean computers.

In the final analysis, these orders are actually won by Sihai Group a long time ago, but they are sold in a different style.

Zhao Jinping raised new concerns and said: "Mr. Li, but we have created a miracle, that is, our domestic computers can also sell 1 million units!" But can we keep up? Our factory now has an annual production capacity of only 300,000 units. ”

Li Yunhai had already considered the whole situation, and said: "Don't worry about this, we can find other computer manufacturers to OEM, and we can also expand the scale!" ”

Zhao Jinping continued to ask: "But what about chips? Our production capacity is also limited. ”

Li Yunhai said: "There are a lot of 286 chips on the market, and this chip has long been unsalable, and it is cheap for us to purchase it back." This time, Intel suddenly tightened the authorization, and some factories no longer purchased the authorization of 286 chips, and I estimate that these manufacturers have a large number of unsalable chips. ”

Zhao Jinping said: "Can we also purchase another batch of lithography machines from Nikon?" Or just buy lithography machines from other factories? ”

Li Yunhai's eyes lit up and said, "Mr. Zhao, you have provided a good idea!" ”

He invited Lin Xiaofeng over and asked her to contact the original chip processing factories, which, like Sihai Group, are also facing the embarrassing situation after the tightening of Intel's authorization, if they don't continue to buy licenses, the lithography machine in their hands will become a pile of scrap.

Not everyone has the courage of Li Yunhai to win the $15 million annual $286 chip license.

What Li Yunhai knows is that there are only a handful of chip factories in the world that can win this authorization.

Before that, because chips were easy to imitate, Intel's tubes were not so strict, and many chip factories were producing without even any authorization.

Now Intel is facing a global purge and crowding, resulting in the lithography machines in these factories becoming scrapped.

If Li Yunhai pays for the acquisition, he can save a lot of money.

The lithography machine of this era is not as precise as that of later generations, and the second-hand lithography machine can also be used.

If you don't have a second-hand machine to buy, it's not too late to get a new machine from Nikon.

After another hour of fuss, the people of Sihai Group got off work.

Li Yunhai asked Lin Zhi to go home to rest first, she was in charge of personnel work, and she was pregnant, so there was no need to stay up late.

Back at home, Li Yunhai saw Lin Zhi wake up, so he told her about receiving an order for 400,000 Blue Ocean computers.

Lin Zhi hugged him and said, "Yunhai, I knew that you would definitely do it!" You've brought the company back to life again! ”

Li Yunhai stroked her back and said, "We have received strong support from dealers this time!" Mr. Hebrew placed an order for 100,000 units alone! ”

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "That's also your usual popularity!" ”

Li Yunhai said: "No, it's our product quality that is good!" Let dealers believe in our quality. ”

Lin Zhi leaned on his arms with a happy face: "Yunhai, after this time, the development of our enterprise is still moving forward steadily, don't be too aggressive." ”

Li Yunhai said: "You're right! Go to sleep! ”

The next day, Chen Hong came to Xizhou to shoot an advertisement.

This time the advertisement is very simple, Chen Hong only has a few lines.

The filming went smoothly and was completed that night.

Chen Hong heard that Li Yunhai and they were going to Hannover to participate in the exhibition, so he asked with a smile: "Mr. Li, do you need exhibition models for this exhibition?" We had a great time working together last time! ”

Li Yunhai said with a smile: "At the Hannover Electronics Show, no one invited exhibition models. When we participate in the Canton Fair, please come with your friends! ”

Chen Hong said: "No one else is invited, but if you do, it will be even more unique!" This is called no one has me! ”

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "Don't you want to be an actor?" How did you develop in the modeling industry? Is being a model addicted? ”

Chen Hongge smiled: "Yes, the main thing is that you can travel abroad for free, and you can make money!" Would you like to invite us? (End of chapter)
