After Anna called to report the situation, the phone calls were reported level by level, and finally the call was placed on the mobile phone of Dell CEO Michael.
During this period, Michael also had a very headache. When Wang Xiang was lobbying Dell and AMD in the United States, everyone had great hopes for cooperation with Changtian Technology.
The cooperation between the three parties has finally been reached, and now there are finished PCs destined for the European market.
What left Michael speechless was that the Dell Smart series actually encountered acclimatization in Europe. It was completely unlike the Shenchuan T1 series, which was killing everyone in Xia.
"What did you say? What's the news from the European market?"
After Michael received the call from the European headquarters, his first reaction was that the Dell Smart series could not be sold.
He also prepared for the worst-case scenario. The worst case scenario would be that all 2,000 computers would become inventory and be dealt with at a discount.
If this worst-case scenario really occurs, the cooperation with Changtian Technology may be frozen immediately.
Changtian Technology is still in contact with Dell during this period, hoping that Dell can assemble computers in Jiangzhou, Xia State.
Michael laughed. If this situation continues, he will not dare to put the PC assembly business in Mr. Jiang.
But after the person in charge of the European headquarters gave a complete report on the situation.
Michael was stunned for a moment.
"What did you say? All 2,000 units of the Linkage series were sold out in less than two days? Not only were they sold out, but the Berlin sales store is currently lined up with users who want to buy Smart series computers? They hope to book in advance?!
"
After receiving the news, Michael's heart skipped a beat, and his brain was a little unable to react.
Happiness really comes too suddenly!
Is Dell Smart Series in stock?
Of course there are, but not many.
Because we don’t know the market feedback in Europe, the 2,000 units assembled are just for asking questions.
The headquarters plans to adjust the sales strategy and even sales price of the Smart Series based on feedback from the European market.
Dell did purchase some hardware, but never had time to assemble it, so there was almost no inventory.
But judging from the current situation, the feedback from the European market is very good.
Not only were all 2,000 units sold out within two days, but many consumers are still queuing up to order.
Michael had to make up his mind immediately.
He immediately told the European headquarters: "We agree that consumers can order in advance and no deposit will be charged for all orders. However, we cannot guarantee the delivery time and we will provide explanations to consumers!"
Michael's meaning was conveyed, and August breathed a sigh of relief.
At least the on-site conflict will not happen again.
Michael immediately organized his staff to take the initiative to register the information of consumers who were willing to buy Dell mobile series, and provided detailed explanations.
Customers who came to queue up to register finally got the definite news that they can order Dell smart computers.
But what they are most concerned about is still one question, "When can I get the goods?"
August really couldn't determine the time when he would get the goods. He could only explain to customers that he would ensure that the goods would be delivered to everyone as soon as they arrived.
Not far away is the IBM sales point.
The IBM clerks were quite surprised when they saw Dell being so popular.
In recent years, competition among global PC manufacturers has become increasingly fierce.
But IBM is not a complete PC assembly and sales company. It also has its own R&D department and a large number of patented technologies.
Under this situation, IBM is unique in the PC industry, and its sales have been crushing Dell.
But today's situation in Berlin, Germany, makes IBM a little worried.
Xia Guo's manufacturers have been able to independently produce motherboards and have absolutely rational advantages in memory and hard drives.
With the addition of this advantage, Dell's product advantages have also been highlighted.
Dell's smart products have already opened up the market in Germany and attracted the attention of the entire Western society. Subsequent sales should not be bad.
Many PC companies have trouble sleeping at night.
At this time, the United States.
The PC and software industry is cooking up something big.
After half a year of testing, Microsoft's Windows XP system has officially launched the business version and home version based on continuous optimization and upgrades.
Microsoft is preparing to release XP system on Christmas Day.
Compared with Windows 98, XP is smoother, integrates more advanced office applications and databases, and can better utilize the performance of the hardware, allowing applications to run better.
But at this time, Microsoft is also considering one thing.
Does the XP system need to be adapted to carbon crystal memory and carbon crystal hard drives? Does it even need to be adapted to the motherboards produced by Onda?
Microsoft was deeply abhorred by Xia Guo's pirated system, and the in-depth optimization of the Windows 98 system led by Changtian Technology caused Microsoft to lose face internationally and suffer heavy losses.
Microsoft has made a decision.
At this time, IBM, HP and other companies found Microsoft.
A closed-door consultation meeting is ongoing.
The popularity of Dell Smart in Europe can be regarded as a shot in the arm for Dell Europe.
The production department immediately purchased an additional 20,000 carbon crystal memories and 30,000 carbon crystal hard drives from Changtian Technology, and also purchased 20,000 motherboards from Angda.
Dell headquarters also has to seize the time to adjust production capacity, hoping to expand flexible production lines.
Fortunately, the products purchased by Dell some time ago have arrived and can be assembled into smart series products immediately.
Michael took Chen Xiao's proposal to heart.
If Dell's assembly line is placed in Jiangzhou, Xia State, not only will labor and land costs be low, but it will also save most of the hardware's transportation costs and time, greatly improving assembly efficiency.
Wu Jun has been paying attention to the European market, and Dell's success has also given Wu Jun great confidence.
Shenchuan's target is not just the entire Xia Kingdom market, but the global market.
Wu Jun thought that with the same configuration, the price of Shenship was much lower than that of Dell.
If Dell can succeed in Europe, then Shenship will surely succeed as well.
However, taking too big a step would be a mistake. Wu Jun's current goal is to occupy Xia Guo's market share as soon as possible.
Seeing the sales of Dell Smart in Europe, Wang Xiang and Zhou Linghua breathed a sigh of relief. They were not as uncertain as Chen Xiao. If they failed in Europe, it would be really difficult for Changtian Technology to enter the international market.
Very big.
Chen Xiao is quite calm. He has not been in the company for the past two days and has completed some exams in school.
As far as Chen Xiao is concerned, he is serious about studying.
On Christmas Day 2001, two things happened that affected Changtian Technology.
The first thing is that Shengshi Tianhua not only failed to respond to Changtian Technology’s ultimatum, but also intensified its response.
They plan to build a large-scale waste treatment plant on Changtian Technology's 2,600 acres of land in the spirit of already possessing a fait accompli.
Moreover, the landfill site has been constructed in the early stage, and a large amount of domestic waste and construction waste in Jiangzhou City are being continuously sent to this place.
The second thing is that Microsoft officially announced and released the Windows XP system.
Microsoft has made it clear that the system does not support the Dell Smart series due to technical reasons.
This series of announcements is not very harmful, but quite insulting. It is equivalent to excluding Changtian Technology from the new Internet era.
After getting this news, Chen Xiao sneered, this was forcing him to make a domestic system!
