Chapter 278 The gambling agreement should be stable
The Mercedes-Benz S350 was driving slowly on the road in Shenzhen City, and the scorching sunlight outside shone into the car.
It has to be said that the summer in Shenzhen City is much hotter than that in Jiangcheng. If the air conditioner is not turned on in the car, the temperature inside the car can reach 60 degrees in an instant.
Wu Jun didn't speak. He was pondering in detail what Chen Xiao had just said.
512MB and 1G of memory, is this true?
When this thing is put on the market, it is gold that people snap up.
In the first half of this year, at the craziest time, the price of 128M memory rose to more than 300 yuan.
After June, with the mass production of major manufacturers, the price dropped to about 150 yuan.
However, the price of 256MB of memory is already over 260 yuan, which is very expensive.
Let’s compare Jiangzhou’s per capita income in 2001. The annual median income was about 10,000 yuan, which is 833 yuan a month.
The median is often a little more than most people actually earn.
Looking at the median, workers in Jiangzhou can buy an 80G carbon crystal hard drive or three 256MB memory after working hard for a month.
If you want to buy a high-end computer from Lianxiang, it will cost almost an employee's salary for a year.
Wu Jun used to be in the hardware business, and of course he knew that the profits of memory were quite high.
Taking 256MB of memory as an example, the profit can be about 10%.
And the memory on the market is in short supply.
Of course, users all hope for better. With the updates and upgrades of games, industrial design and other applications, 256M memory is currently just enough for high-intensity users.
After several months of construction, Shenchuan has become a representative of the ultimate cost-effectiveness. Many users are also asking Shenchuan whether there is a computer with 512M memory.
Wu Jun wanted to, but the conditions didn’t allow it!
Even a company as awesome as Lianxiang couldn't get the goods, let alone myself.
Many PC manufacturers have thought of ways to use dual-channel memory and put two 256M together to make 512M.
This is indeed effective, but compared to a single 512M memory, the effect is still much worse.
Shenchuan Company Headquarters, staff restaurant.
In order to entertain Chen Xiao, Wu Jun specially renovated the luxurious private room in the staff restaurant, and then invited a team of chefs from the top hotels in Shenzhen to come and cook.
The main reason why I didn't go directly to the hotel for dinner was to facilitate the conversation.
After all, carbon crystal memory is a highly confidential product. Once this product is released, the entire semiconductor industry chain will undergo great changes.
First of all, memory manufacturers may face the problem of overcapacity, and at the same time, upstream manufacturers Epistar will also be affected.
Now if carbon crystal memory products are leaked, it is not clear what impact it will have on the entire industry.
There are also many incidents of products overturning during the testing phase.
Chen Xiao looked at the exquisite dishes and couldn't help but sigh, the life of rich people is really beautiful.
Although Wu Jun had just founded Shenchuan, he had been in the hardware business before and had made a lot of money, so he knew how to enjoy life.
Sun Dong's trip to Shenzhen City was an eye-opener. It was the first time he saw so many high-rise buildings, and it was also the first time he saw how delicious food could be.
He didn't care so much and had a great time.
Many of Shenchuan's management have been in Shenzhen for many years, and everyone has long since lost their recklessness and become more elegant.
Looking at Sun Dong eating, his eyes couldn't help but show some disgust and even contempt.
Chen Xiao didn't care, what he admired most was Sun Dong's straightforward character.
Because today's dinner is not an external banquet, but an internal gathering, there is no need to be so pretentious.
Changtian Technology owns 50% of the shares of Shenship. According to the current sales rate of Shenship, Chen Xiao will definitely win the gambling agreement between Chen Xiao and Wu Jun.
The two parties set up a gambling agreement. Within one year, if the revenue of Shenchuan PC exceeds 500 million RMB, Changtian Technology can acquire 10% of Shenchuan shares again at the market value at that time.
At this time, Shenchuan's revenue has exceeded 150 million. By this time next year, there will be almost no problem that Shenchuan's revenue will exceed 500 million.
That is, by this time next year, Chen Xiao will definitely be the largest shareholder of Shenchuan.
Therefore, Chen Xiao thinks that everyone should not be so restrained when eating, and he will not take the initiative to ask Sun Dong to pay attention to his image.
Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't say anything, the Shenship executives who originally wanted to remind Mr. Sun remained silent at this time.
Chen Xiao didn't care about the expressions of these senior officials and discussed with Wu Jun the matter of carbon crystal memory and market testing.
Chen Xiao gave the basic conditions for the test object.
The first is that users must use it for a long time, and the second is that users must accept monitoring by Changtian Technology-related software.
The third is to keep the test results confidential.
As long as these three conditions are met, you can become a test subject.
Of course, Changtian Technology also has preferential policies for test subjects.
Anyone who is willing to join the carbon crystal memory test can enjoy a 6,000 yuan discount on purchasing a PC.
In other words, these users who purchase any series of PCs from Shenchuan can enjoy a 6,000 yuan purchase discount as long as they choose a PC equipped with carbon crystal memory.
Of course, this 6,000 yuan discount will be fed back to the user after the test is completely completed. It is not directly discounted on the price of the whole machine when the user purchases the machine.
But when Wu Jun heard this, he felt that even if the preferential purchase policy of 6,000 yuan was not given, there would still be countless users willing to be testers.
After all, 512MB and 1G memory cannot be found in the commercial market of the entire Xia Kingdom.
Chen Xiao also said: "The entire test cycle is 1 to 2 months. Users must be online for no less than 12 hours a day. I hope to add test products and distribute them within three days."
"The most important thing is that users must sign a confidentiality agreement. If anyone fails to implement the confidentiality agreement, they must claim compensation from the user in accordance with the requirements of the confidentiality agreement."
The confidentiality agreement only allows the user to keep the test data confidential, but does not allow the user to keep the testing work confidential.
Chen Xiao attaches great importance to this test, so the details of the test are very perfect.
After the meal, Wu Jun arranged for Chen Xiao to stay at the most luxurious hotel in the city, where he could see Xiaomeisha, a famous tourist attraction in Shenzhen.
Chen Xiao's heart suddenly calmed down on the beautiful beach and blue sea.
Chen Xiao suddenly had an idea.
The beaches in Hainan are more beautiful than those in Shenzhen.
At this time, there was no large-scale development in Hainan. If you build a villa facing the sea in that place and go there for vacation in your free time, it will definitely be the best moment in life.
A call from Shen Wei.
During the summer vacation, Shen Wei did not return to Jiangzhou immediately, but found an internship unit in Yanjing.
This is not only a summer job to exercise your abilities, but also a small internship to test the results of your studies.
The internship will end at the end of July, and I will return to Jiangcheng on August 1st.
"Chen Xiao, are you in Jiangzhou or back to Jiangcheng?"
Shen Wei knew that Chen Xiao had opened a company, so she thought that if Chen Xiao didn't return to Jiangcheng, she would go to Chen Xiao's company to take a look and help out.
Chen Xiao opened the hotel window, the sea breeze blew over, and the room suddenly became much cooler.
"I'm on a business trip in Shenzhen right now. When are you going to go home?"
"Why are you going to Shenzhen City on the train tomorrow? I also said that I would go to your company in Jiangzhou to have a look. I have been interning in Yanjing for a month and I have learned a lot. Let's see if you can use it there.
If you stay at my place, I'll give you a month's free summer job."
Shen Wei still misses Chen Xiao a lot, but after all, the two universities are far apart, so this longing turns into a kind of indifferent sadness.
Chen Xiao looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window and said: "I still have work in Shenzhen City for a while, so don't go back to Jiangzhou. I have booked a ticket for you to Shenzhen City, and I will pick you up when you get to the airport.
"
Although Shen Wei's family conditions are good, she is still relatively frugal, so she always takes the train every time she goes to Yanjing to study.
"Are you going to Shenzhen City? The air ticket is very expensive. It must cost several thousand."
Chen Xiao said: "Okay, I have already arranged the matter. After I book the flight tickets later, I will send you the information via text message."
Shen Wei still felt a little excited in her heart. After all, she had never seen the sea before.
After the phone call, Chen Xiao immediately asked Sun Dong to book a flight ticket.
Even though Chen Xiao paid thousands of yuan for air tickets, Chen Xiao said the famous saying of countless travelers in later generations: "Everyone is here, just have fun."
At the Shenchuan headquarters, Wu Jun held a meeting and immediately allocated 1,000 T1 series Shenchuan series computers, and installed 512 MB and 1g carbon crystal memory in batches.
After everything was ready, Wu Jun began to arrange Shenchuan's largest sales point in Shenzhen City and identify test users.
Test users are not randomly selected, but they are asked to know how they use the computer, how long they use it every day, etc.
The sales manager will recommend this test activity to customers who feel they have potential.
In Shenzhen City, architectural designer Hu Linyu has been using the Lianxiang PC for 5 years.
Hu Linyu is in the early stages of starting a business. He has a design team of 5 people, so he is very economical.
Hu Linyu originally wanted Lianxiang’s after-sales staff to help him upgrade his computer.
However, the staff of Lianxiang said that the 5-year-old computer was already very old and there was no way to upgrade it.
If you really want to upgrade, the motherboard, chips, memory and hard drive will all have to be replaced, which is worse than buying a new computer.
After Lianxiang's staff found out that Hu Linyu was the designer, they also recommended Lianxiang's latest high-end computers to Hu Linyu.
He also said that this computer can definitely meet Hu Linyu’s design work.
But Hu Linyu was a little confused when he saw the price.
The asking price of this high-performance computer from Lianxiang is more than 10,000 yuan.
Hu Linyu asked many consumers a classic question, "Does a computer worth more than 10,000 yuan have a carbon crystal hard drive?"
