Chapter 863: Darkness Before Dawn

On September 2, 1993, Wanyan Group issued a good news, Wanyan VCD with a listing price of 4,500 yuan in a single day sales exceeded 2,000 units, this exciting news, caused a lot of sensation in the industry, some financial media have also followed up the report.

In the office of Datang Electronics headquarters, Chang Hai pinched his fingers and calculated: "A 4,500 yuan, two thousand units is nine million, and according to the calculation of our statistics department, the cost of this VCD is 3,000 yuan including R&D, advertising, labor freight and other expenses, that is to say, one makes 1,500 yuan, damn, the oil and water are too big." ”

"This cost is still calculated according to the price of CL450 chips, and if it is based on the chips produced by our Datang, the cost is more than 2,000 yuan." Li Siwen also showed a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, which was a good sign.

"That's a lot more money than TV." Zhao Zilong, who was on the side, added after speaking: "Brother Wen, our production line is ready, as long as the chips on Foxconn's side are in place, they can be mass-produced at any time." ”

"I talked to Mr. Guo on the phone in the morning, and the first batch of chips is already on the way, and it is estimated that it will not take long to arrive." Li Siwen replied

"Brother Wen, how many chips have we made this time? I will inform the production department to arrange manpower reasonably and not waste labor. Zhao Zilong said.

"As long as the market is okay, let it go, and the first batch of orders is enough for one million." Li Siwen replied.

"The total price of one million chips is 10 million US dollars, which is really enough to burn money." Zhao Zilong sighed, and Chang Hai said with a smile: "The days of making money are ahead." ”

"That's right, but remember to keep an eye on the latest reports, although Wan Yan won the first battle, but the market depends on the continuity." After Li Siwen said cautiously, he called the results again, and also asked the other party to pay attention to the news in the market.

In this era, there is a big difference between the Internet and the Internet, and the circulation of news basically depends on newspapers or TV news, and sometimes something happens in a place, and it even takes several days to determine whether it is true or false, and it is precisely because of the blockage of news that it leads to endless problems.

Although Li Siwen is sure that the VCD product will explode, because of his intervention, the entire market has undergone great changes, and the speed of advancement is much faster than in his previous life, so he is not sure if there will be problems in the process.

And it will be October 1 soon, Datang is facing the problem of salary increase, if the VCD project encounters difficulties, Datang will face the risk of collapse at any time.

Li Siwen personally calculated an account, although he sold some of his self-developed products for more than 300 million in Luzhou, but sooner or later this money will be counted on the head of the Westward Journey Group, in addition, there is also 100 million of the Song family, which adds up to 400 million. Then there is the 75 million installment for the purchase of Sun Yansheng's shares, as well as the installment of one million chips signed with Foxconn, plus the advance payment for various accessories of Datang VCD, and now Datang is completely overspending.

Even after winning the VCD project, the supplier's attitude has changed, and they are willing to supply Datang in advance, but this process must not be delayed too long.

The problem of money is the biggest problem of Datang, and Li Siwen now has no decent products to sell, and those products in Luzhou were only made by the Journey to the West R&D Department for three months, so at this juncture, he can only rely on VCD.

In the next few days, the news of VCD sales was also overwhelming, and the follow-up reports of the media also pushed VCD to a new dimension, and everything seemed to be developing in a good direction.

On September 7, Li Siwen made a phone call to Jiang Wanmeng: "Brother Jiang, how is the recent sales?" ”

"Brother, don't worry, the sales are good." Jiang Wanmeng smiled: "Since we sold 2,000 units on the first day, the remaining 8,000 units have already been ordered by major shopping malls, and my order calls have been bursting." ”

"As long as there is no problem with sales, by the way, I plan to release Datang VCD on the 15th, and it just so happens that we don't have your market here in Pengcheng." Li Siwen said.

"No problem, but you have to solve the chip problem for me as soon as possible." Jiang Wanmeng hurriedly said.

"Don't worry, I have already sent a special car to transport the first batch of chips, and it is estimated that it will arrive in a few days." Li Siwen replied.

"It's still my brother, I import some accessories from your Pengcheng, and some transportation companies even have to run for a month, which is slower than the donkey cart." Jiang Wanmeng scolded and said, "I won't talk to you yet, I'm a little busy here." ”

"Okay, goodbye." Li Siwen put down the phone and breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there are enough people to order, it means that VCD has a strong market demand, this is an excellent start, he was thinking about it, the phone rang again, it was Lu Shuhang calling.

"Dude, what's wrong?" Li Siwen asked politely.

"Good news, Jingshi has made a new ruling on Datang's technical transformation project, thinking that Datang's project meets the relevant requirements, and the project funds will be allocated in the next two days, remember to let your finance department follow up." Lu Shuhang said with a smile.

"Really? Whew~" Li Siwen let out a long breath: "Brother, I won't tell you, I've been poor and crazy lately." ”

"Yo, you've invested more than 400 million and you're still poor? Your business circles have spread the word. Lu Shuhang teased.

"It's because of the big investment, so I'm short of money, and I just can't get in and out now!" Li Siwen said, and said in a serious tone: "Brother, thank you for your help this time." ”

"It has nothing to do with me, the main thing is that you have too much movement during this time, and the VCD project is also a benefit, as for me, I am just to help you run errands." Lu Shuhang replied modestly.

"Brother, you're welcome, are you in Pengcheng? I invited you to dinner, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you. Li Siwen said with a smile.

"Even if you kid still have a little conscience, but I'm in Jingshi, wait for the money to be allocated here, and I will go back to Pengcheng, otherwise these officials will be dragged one by one." Lu Shuhang said.

Li Siwen didn't expect Lu Shuhang to go to Beijing again for his own business, and this feeling is really indescribable.

"Brother, I won't say anything polite, wait for you to come back."

"Stinky boy, don't be too stressed."

"Got it."

The two hung up the phone after a few pleasantries, and Li Siwen then called Chang Hai over to follow up on the appropriation, and the entry of this project fund is undoubtedly life-saving for today's Datang, even if 200 million cannot solve the substantive problem.

On September 9, the project funds were successfully credited, and Li Siwen officially announced the matter through the media, and also announced that Datang VCD will be listed on September 15.

For a while, Datang was rejoicing, everything was developing in a good direction, but above this cloud, there always seemed to be a trace of undercurrent, which made people uneasy.
