Chapter 958: The Current Enemy, Lenovo
Liu Ruoxi is very satisfied with her current life.
Even though classes at the National People's Congress were temporarily suspended, her status in the school has skyrocketed.
There is no other reason than that the launch of the IC College project is so popular that major colleges and universities are vying for it, and no one wants to lose this opportunity.
Originally, in Wu Tao's plan, it would be enough for seven or eight 985 universities to open this new college.
As a result, he was happy to see the competition among major universities, but it created a big problem for the Ministry of Education.
After all, the establishment of the new college will temporarily use the resources of the Ministry of Education.
Especially among the universities directly under the ministry and the universities directly under the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense that have been reported individually, which one has an allocation that is not hundreds of millions?
There are too many monks and too little porridge.
After repeated discussions, the department cleverly kicked the ball back to Wu Tao through Gu Xueli as the microphone.
It is said that only colleges and universities that have received a recommendation letter from the Electronic Chip Association can pass the ministry's review and officially establish an IC college.
As a result, the National People's Congress wanted to establish an IC college, so they turned to Liu Ruoxi.
The one near the water should get the moon first.
But after Liu Ruoxi reported her work today, she didn't say it directly, and even hesitated a little.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else you can't say to me?" Wu Tao saw her expression and said casually.
Liu Ruoxi twisted her head left and right, but finally raised her head and mustered up the courage to say, "Tonight, my mother wants to invite you home for a meal."
Yo? Wu Tao couldn't help but be stunned. A low-level citizen like Sun Liping and Director Sun, who was afraid that he would bring disaster to her daughter, could actually take the initiative to treat him to a meal?
Is it because of Liu Minho?
That's not right. Secretary Liu is so proud of himself right now that he has no use for him.
Could it be said that Sun Liping is not the kind of person who 'uses people to move forward and doesn't use people to move to the back'? Who believes it!
Although I thought a lot in my mind, it only happened in a moment. So Wu Tao quickly smiled, picked up the phone and said, "Can I ask for permission?"
Liu Ruoxi understood what he meant and nodded shyly.
A call was made to Tianan Company, but it was Tongtong's secretary who answered the call. An Rong was busy in a meeting giving instructions and had no time to answer.
Wu Tao didn't say much and asked An Rong about her plans for today.
As expected, the schedule was adjusted to around nine o'clock in the evening.
She shook her head helplessly, Rongrong was really working hard, no wonder Liu Chuanzhi's association made Liu Chuanzhi panic.
Putting down the phone, he met Liu Ruoxi's expectant eyes, shrugged and said, "No problem, I'm free tonight."
"Okay, then it's settled." Liu Ruoxi looked happy.
Wu Tao joked, "If you are worried, you can write it into the association's schedule."
"Why is that necessary?" Liu Ruoxi smiled, "I believe you."
After the listing of Tianan Company in full swing, Lenovo Company really caused a lot of turmoil.
Of course, if it was just a small peer opponent, Liu Chuanzhi would not panic. In fact, after the new year, the attitude of the superiors towards the development of the chip industry took a 180-degree turn, and all kinds of red-headed documents were issued like a snowflake.
The reversal of the situation is already very clear.
Liu Chuanzhi, who had always followed the path of trade, industry and technology, couldn't help but begin to doubt his life.
It's almost time to get off work, and the conference room at Lenovo's headquarters is filled with smoke.
This was Liu Chuanzhi's three days in a row, where he convened management from mid-level cadres and above to discuss the big plan together.
The topic is called: New Era, New Ideas. In fact, He Zhiqiang, who was the first to sit down, knew in his heart that Mr. Liu was frightened by Wu Tao's series of vigorous actions.
However, since the meeting has been held for three days, everything that needs to be said has been said, and all the opinions that need to be expressed have been shaken off.
The rest is actually time to draw conclusions and make a clear stance.
He Zhiqiang understood in his heart, so he shook out the ashes and took it back out of habit. After a pause, he stubbed it out in the ashtray.
"I think the era of high profits for our computer products is over. Since it is the new century, so many new computer companies are springing up like mushrooms after a rain, and it is time to enter the era of low profits. On the basis of maintaining market share, through services Perfect, steady and steady..."
This opinion is controversial, but not much.
So as soon as He Zhiqiang finished speaking, Liu Chuanzhi knocked on the table and said, "Write this down." Then he looked at the others, "What else?"
There was dead silence in the conference room.
In fact, it’s not that there are no opinions, but that most people dare not speak out. Especially the trade, industry and technology route that has run through the company's development to this day has not seen much investment in technology.
If this continues, once competitors develop their technology and foreign companies enter one after another, development will only be a dead end.
However, this route was decided by Lao Liu, and he did not hesitate to squeeze out his partners who had worked hard together to get started.
So who dares to mention this at this stall?
Isn't it obvious that he is seeking death?
In fact, Liu Chuanzhi has realized this. The reason why he wants to hold this management meeting to discuss the big plan is that he hopes someone can boldly propose it and let him have a step forward.
For this reason, he even thought about how to reward the person who raised this question.
However, it now seems that this proposal may be stillborn, unless he proposes it himself.
But if you bring it up yourself, isn't it equivalent to a slap in the face?
Liu Chuanzhi rubbed the stiff muscles on his face, then sat up straight and said in a deep voice: "A price war is necessary, but it can only be a temporary measure. In the long run, should the technology department come up with something?" Any opinions?"
As the head of the technical department, Yang Yuanqing was suddenly excited. He looked at the boss above through his glasses with a gloomy look.
It seems I have to say it.
Yang Yuanqing took a deep breath and said with all-out courage: "I think the company should increase its investment in the technology department, enhance the strategic position of technology research and development, and stand in the continued diversified competition in the future through the development of research and development. Keep your footing.”
Of course, Yang Yuanqing is not a fool. If he mentions this point alone and is approved, he will be passive.
So immediately afterwards, he didn't even give Liu Chuanzhi a chance to express his position, and said: "One more point, since Yuanqi Technology can go out to acquire foreign companies and participate in joint ventures, I think we can also achieve this by acquiring the PC business of foreign companies. Add value to yourself and enhance brand influence?”
Liu Chuanzhi suddenly felt relieved.
"Very good. Manager Yang's opinion is very pertinent, especially the second point, which I like very much!"
"From now on, Yang Yuanqing will be promoted to vice president of the company, responsible for the implementation of the two points just mentioned. Especially the second point, the acquisition of the PC business of foreign companies, must be given priority."
While Yang Yuanqing was feeling energetic, he secretly cursed in his heart: 'I'm afraid the first point is the focus of the work. ’
Liu Chuanzhi continued: "As for the price war plan, let Zhiqiang handle it."
"The meeting is over!"
