Chapter 1179: Working with IBM

"Boss, the stock index has rebounded in recent days. Should we deliver some contracts first?" He Zhaoji called.
"No, stick to the hollow. Remember, don't double leverage, do the hedging, and seek stability." Feng Yu said.
After He Zhaoji got Feng Yu’s instructions, he strengthened his confidence. Although the stock index fell all the way because of the continuous financial scandals of the company, but after a series of adjustments, it has begun to show signs of recovery.
Now in a period of volatility, the turnover rate of stocks is very high. At this time, the operation is the most difficult and the most energy-intensive. In particular, the amount of money invested in wind and rain consultations is too large, which makes He Zhaoji very worried.
Not worried about losing money, but worried about the profit of the hand and spit it out. Even if the stock index rises by another 10 percentage points this month, the wind and rain consultation can still make money.
Feng Yu looked at the calendar on the table. The time is approaching. I don't know if this big event can happen.
At this time, Feng Yuzheng accompanied Liu Chuanzhi, and met with ib's chairman of the board and e president Luis Guo Shina to discuss the cooperation between the two sides.
Even if you want to enter the rice market, the resistance is very big. It is not only the joint attack from other companies, especially the hegemony of the world p industry, the most difficult, especially ib has many political axes and corporate orders in the country. Largest customers.
And Liu Chuanzhi thought of another way, that is cooperation. Although ib is technically ahead of the game, it is not far ahead, and innovation has fallen behind. Moreover, even the aura of the Asian market leader has been added, and I have even added a lot of points.
It is also even thinking that ib will be squeezed out of the Chinese market, so that the profits of ib's p division will continue to decrease. In addition, ib's investment in technology has been very high, leading to the negative growth of ib's profits in the past two years, and has fallen into the biggest trouble since 1992.
In 1992, ib created the largest loss in the history of the company at the time, nearly $5 billion. At that time, ib was still the world hegemon of p.
Since then, ib has announced its entry into the software industry. The company's development focus has shifted from hardware to software and services, and has quickly become the world's largest software group.
It wasn't until 1999 that Microsoft's overall size exceeded that of ib's software group, pushing ib Software Group to the second place.
Coincidentally, at this time, even Yinshan is already the fifth largest software group in the world, and the upward trend is still very strong. Even if he wants to say that he will surpass Tatasoft in two years, he will become the world's fourth. In five years, he will surpass Germany and become the third in the world.
In other words, even the only way to go is ib's old path, hardware, software, services in parallel, and has a huge Asian market and low manufacturing costs, and its competitiveness.
When Liu Chuanzhi said that he would cooperate with ib, Guo Shina agreed without hesitation.
At this time, there were four people sitting in the room, Feng Yu, Liu Chuanzhi, Guo Shina and Peng Mingsheng, Samuel Peng Mingsheng, and the successor of Guo Shina, who was elected by ib. At this time, he was the vice chairman and president of the company. , is the second hand of ib.
The contract of Guo Shina will expire next year. Guo Shiner himself is the owner of the largest tobacco company in the country. He does not intend to stay in office and wants to go back and continue to run his own business.
Guo Shiner is the legend that pulled ib out of the huge loss of the quagmire. From a loss of 5 billion to a profit of 3 billion, it took less than two years, and then ib has remained profitable. Last year, ib's net profit exceeded $6 billion, and this year is expected to climb again.
Guo Shina wants to push ib to go further before he leaves office. In this case, he can make more money by holding the ib stock. During his ten-year tenure, he received more than three million shares of ib shares, which was worth more than $300 million in the previous period. But now, there are only about 200 million. Although ib profits are rising, its stock price is here. During the period, it is also inevitable to fall.
Ib urgently needs a new stimulus to boost the stock price, such as... re-enter the Chinese market!
This cooperation is not only about technical cooperation, but also the exchange market.
Ib wants to be an agent in North America, and even think of the group, it will become the agent of ib in China, and even become an agent in Asia.
Of course, the scope of this cooperation for the time being is limited to p, not including software. In the software, it is still a bit big to think about the status of ib.
Not to mention anything else, Sipu was originally founded after the resignation of four ib employees, and further proved that what is ib engineer, this is really not blowing!
"Feng, Liu, I am very glad that you can come to ib. Our cooperation will be very enjoyable. This will be a great promotion to our cause." Guo Shina said with a smile.
"Of course, I think the future of ib's p, may be able to regain the world's second sales." Liu Chuanzhi said with a smile.
As for who is the number one in the world, his expression has already explained everything.
"Liu, our ib's p quality is very good, and the life is very long..." Peng Mingsheng spoke of the advantages of the ib personal computer for a long time. In fact, the term personal computer was also proposed by ib. They have always been the pioneers.
It is a pity that the pioneers may not be able to laugh at the end. Just like running, the starting speed is fast, and it is not always possible to lead all the way to the end. Some are quickly overtaken, and some are overtaken in the middle.
Liu Chuanzhi and Feng Yu look at each other, and sure enough, ib is caught in a misunderstanding, that is, the longer the life of the computer, the better the misunderstanding!
Computer technology innovation is so fast, your ib's p, especially the notebook, the biggest drawback is that it is too resistant. Change it, the old one is not bad. Don't change it, the old speed can't keep up, it's very tangled.
And ib's price is still high, has always been the most expensive layer in the notebook.
The same performance of the notebook, ib's price, can more than double the thought, this in China, how can it be sold?
Even thinking about what you have been trying to build is a cheap computer that will allow more people to use the computer. Computers should not be high-end products. They should be very common in people's lives. They are similar to mobile phones and will become a necessity in people's lives in the future!
"No, I think if ib is still thinking about this, then don't say it is in the Chinese market. In the Asian market, it is still difficult to do. This is a comparison table of performance parameters I prepared. The bottom line is the retail price. I think you should understand why ib's personal computer is becoming weaker and weaker." Liu Chuanzhi pushed two documents to Guo Shina and Peng Mingsheng.
The two looked at each other and picked up a document. They just looked at the price comparison and they frowned.
