It wasn't until his throat started to smoke that Chu Tianyao sent away the reporters and returned to the general manager's office on the seventh floor.
At this time, Lu Qiuyu was in the office. He just put down the phone and watched Chu Tianyao push the door open and come in.
But before she could say anything, Chu Tianyao picked up the water glass on her table and drank it.
"That guy Lao Du doesn't have the foresight to drive those reporters away for me. They almost ruined my reputation."
Chu Tianyao put down the water glass and complained.
"Come on, who doesn't know that you, Mr. Chu, are eloquent? If you don't go with the reporters, who will?"
Lu Qiuyu rolled her eyes at Chu Tianyao.
This grand ribbon-cutting ceremony was organized by Chu Tianyao. Not only did he invite several official leaders of the city, he also invited most of the Shenzhen city's media circle to the scene.
There is only one purpose, and that is to make Xingyao Technology very popular in Guangdong Province this time.
"By the way, just now...Martin called me and said he wanted to talk to us about cooperation."
Lu Qiuyu suddenly said.
Chu Tianyao was overjoyed when he heard this.
"So fast?
What kind of cooperation does he want?"
Lu Qiuyu looked up at Chu Tianyao and said: "I told him your idea. We intend to sign Ericsson's exclusive agency rights in the Chinese market, and the other party is also interested in cooperating with us, but Ericsson's branch is in Yangcheng...
"
"Let's set off to Yangcheng now!"
Before Lu Qiuyu could finish speaking, Chu Tianyao made a final decision.
"What! So fast?"
Lu Qiuyu opened her eyes in disbelief.
"Soldiers are very quick. By the time that guy Martin comes to his senses, it will be too late to talk."
Chu Tianyao stood up, took off his windbreaker from the hanger, turned to Lu Qiuyu and said: "You have to come with me this time. As for the company's affairs, Lao Du and the others will take care of it and everything will be fine."
"good!"
Lu Qiuyu also responded.
Although she still doesn't know what Chu Tianyao's confidence is to allow Ericsson to hand over the exclusive agency rights to him, but when she thinks that the person in front of her is Chu Tianyao, she is speechless.
This guy cannot be judged by normal people.
After all, whatever happened to Chu Tianyao in the past two years, no matter how outrageous, may be true.
…
There are many people who want to talk to Ericsson about cooperation.
Although Ericsson is not well-known in China, it is considered a first-class company in the industry in the international market.
However, due to Ericsson's frequent setbacks in the Chinese market, the agents that could find Martin were almost all second- and third-tier in terms of strength, and there was no way to realize Martin's plan to occupy the Chinese market and compete with Motorola.
Therefore, he needs an agent with strong marketing capabilities.
The success of Xingyao Technology in the Beibeijia and Xingyao vcd projects allowed Martin to see the company's strong marketing strength.
If the other party was just a little-known small company, maybe Martin really wouldn't take it so seriously.
But he can spend 15 million to buy an office building.
Martin never believed that there was no background behind Xingyao Technology.
Yangcheng.
Chu Tianyao drove the car himself and drove Lu Qiuyu over non-stop.
The straight-line distance between the two places is less than 100 kilometers, so it won't take long to drive there.
On the car.
Lu Qiuyu was sitting in the passenger seat. Apart from occasionally looking at the scenery outside the car window, she just looked down at the technology magazine in her hand.
"Is there any news worthy of attention?"
Chu Tianyao glanced at the co-pilot and saw that Lu Qiuyu was looking seriously, so he asked curiously.
"It's not really big news. It's just that Lenovo Group has organized some kind of charity event, which is quite interesting."
"Charitable activities?"
Chu Tianyao raised his eyebrows.
Seeing Chu Tianyao's interest, Lu Qiuyu picked up the magazine and read beside him: "That's right, Lenovo planned a project called 'To whom will the 100,000th computer be dedicated?
’ charity event, guess who they gave this computer to?”
Lu Qiuyu blinked her eyes and looked at Chu Tianyao.
This guy was always full of ideas, and she wanted to see if Chu Tianyao could guess the answer.
At this time, when he heard Lu Qiuyu tell the news, a memory from the past also appeared in Chu Tianyao's mind.
1995 was an extraordinary year in the history of Chinese business.
This year, many domestic companies in China, including Lenovo, began a vigorous price reduction war under the banner of revitalizing national brands.
The symbol of Lenovo's price reduction war originated from this charity event.
If Chu Tianyao remembered correctly, the 100,000th computer should have been given to the famous domestic mathematician Mr. Chen Jingrun.
In addition, Lenovo has joined hands with local governments to launch the Lenovo Computer Express campaign, which has begun to promote home computers and Lenovo products in more than 300 cities across the country.
What really put Lenovo on the fast track in China was Liu Chuanzhi’s subsequent price reduction strategy.
He forced Yang Yuanqing to reduce production costs by half, and Yang Yuanqing's team lived up to their trust and launched China's first economical computer, which was nearly half cheaper than multinational computer brands while ensuring the same performance.
Yang Yuanqing claimed that they had reduced the assembly cost of each machine from 150 yuan to 38 yuan.
Others may not know the secret of reducing assembly costs, but Chu Tianyao, who is a latecomer at this moment, knows it clearly.
Lenovo abandoned all the imported computer cases it used in the past and replaced them with domestic cases with thinner steel plates and rough workmanship.
The cost of a domestic chassis is only 200 yuan, but the price is one-eighth of that of an imported chassis.
Although the quality seems to have declined, for consumers, the price-performance ratio has actually improved.
Under the slogan of national revitalization of national enterprises, Lenovo also relied on this price reduction strategy to achieve a beautiful victory in the country.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?"
While driving the car, Chu Tianyao was deep in thought when Lu Qiuyu's voice suddenly interrupted him.
"I didn't think about anything. I was just wondering who Lenovo would give this computer to?"
After coming back to his senses, Chu Tianyao slowed down the car and smiled at Lu Qiuyu.
Hearing this, Lu Qiuyu also straightened her nose: "I thought you knew everything. Let me tell you, Lenovo Group gave this computer to the mathematician Mr. Chen Jingrun."
Chen Jingrun, this name is very famous in China.
In the 1970s, because of his research on Goldbach's conjecture, Chen Jingrun became a role model for domestic intellectuals and a famous mathematician of his generation.
"Why don't you look surprised at all?"
After announcing the answer, Lu Qiuyu looked at Chu Tianyao's calm expression and asked.
It was as if this guy already knew the answer.
"What's so surprising about this?"
The corners of Chu Tianyao's mouth curled up slightly, and he turned the steering wheel in his hand, causing the car to suddenly turn a corner.
After rounding the intersection, they saw the Ericsson office building in the distance.
