Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

Building a factory takes time. This time it is not just an assembly plant. Many accessories are developed by China Wujiang Group itself, such as motherboards, keyboards, etc. A few electronic components, including Z80 chips, Sharp LCD screens, etc., must be purchased from Imported from abroad.

Fortunately, Zhao Ye had already asked Wang Anshi to establish a branch in Hong Kong, sell Hanka, and make a lot of money.

At present, Hanka's sales are good and are already selling well in Hong Kong.

As for the sales volume in Baodao and Southeast Asia, the sales volume is relatively small. After all, the company does not promote there. The brand influence in Hong Kong alone cannot reach the level of completely opening up the markets in the two places.

The Hong Kong branch already has a lot of Hong Kong dollars on its books.

It is much easier to exchange Hong Kong dollars for U.S. dollars in Hong Kong than to exchange RMB for U.S. dollars in the Mainland.

Therefore, the Hong Kong branch can already independently purchase electronic components such as chips and Sharp LCD screens.

However, with the explosion of mainland production capacity, the Hong Kong branch may not have as much foreign exchange to purchase electronic components.

Either find a way to earn foreign exchange by exporting, or become an agent for foreign PC products, such as IBM-PC, and finally negotiate with IBM to settle a portion of US dollars + RMB and pay it to China Wujiang Group.

……

A week has passed.

Summer is extremely hot, and the construction of Wujiang Factory is in full swing.

Secretary Zhang Fulin, Zhao Ye and others inspected the construction site wearing a hard hat.

In order to speed up the construction of the project and shorten the construction period, Zhao Ye used several construction teams.

The factory building will not be built very high. Zhao Ye only plans to build it to three or four floors at most. Low-rise buildings can be constructed quickly and at low cost.

Moreover, the factory floor is low and naturally occupies a large area, so it makes sense that you need more land.

The land purchased by China Wujiang Group is relatively close to the core area of ​​Zhongguancun. It will definitely be demolished and built into high-rise buildings in the future.

This is what Zhao Ye had in mind. He would first build a factory and work there for seven or eight years, then move the factory to the suburbs and use the original site for commercial building development. At the same time, he would build the headquarters science and technology park of China Wujiang Group here.

"The construction speed here is so fast!" Secretary Zhang Fulin looked at the busy construction site and said with some surprise.

Zhao Ye smiled. Is China's reputation for speed just in vain?

"Leveling the land and building the factory will take about three months to complete!"

"Soldiers are very resourceful. If we build the factory earlier, our company will be able to produce typewriters sooner."

Zhao Ye took Secretary Zhang Fulin to visit around the construction site, and then went back to reassure the other party that our China Wujiang Group was doing real things and did not defraud the government of its land at a low price, and then hoard it there and wait for it. Appreciation, but really want to build a factory.

Sure enough, Secretary Zhang Fulin was very happy when he saw that the factory was indeed under construction.

……

At this time, the company's purchasing department is also very busy. According to the technical requirements for raw material procurement provided by technicians, buyers need to contact suppliers, select from them, and negotiate prices. Things are not easy at all.

And try our best to take care of domestic enterprises and achieve localization.

The benefits of localization are mainly reflected in high quality and low price. For China Wujiang Group, it can not only reduce production costs, but also save foreign exchange.

In the 1980s, foreign exchange was really difficult to obtain. Even if products were exported to earn foreign exchange, most of the foreign exchange was eventually taken away by the state. At this time, the country had very few foreign exchange reserves. For example, in 12, China's foreign exchange reserves were only US$ billion...

On the far side of the ocean.

IBM executive meeting.

“In the past month, the sales of IBM-PC in China have dropped sharply. According to reports, the main reason is that a relatively cheap IBM-PC compatible brand Super has appeared there. This product has seriously squeezed our sales in China. market share.

In addition, the company that distributes the Super product has some strength in China. They independently developed a product called Image-Hanka that can support Chinese characters on computers, and it is very popular in China.

Many users in China will consider purchasing an Imagine-Hanka when purchasing a computer. For this reason, the company that developed Imagine-Hanka is almost always unfavorable when it comes to promoting and selling super-PCs. "

An assistant introduced at the meeting.

IBM executives were slightly surprised.

"Oh, Imagine-Hanka is very important to the Chinese... It seems that the company that developed Imagine-Hanka is indeed quite powerful. If this company can be our agent in China, then the sales of IBM-PC should be huge. By the way, what's the name of this company?" A company executive asked in a calm tone.

The assistant replied: "It used to be called Imagine Technology Company, and then it established a group called China Wujiang Group. It still retains the brand Imagine. When it comes to external promotions, most of them still focus on Imagine."

"What the hell is China Without Borders??? Forget it, ignore it. Anyway, no matter whether it is called China Without Borders or Imagine, you can contact this company later and inform them to come and participate in the agency held by our IBM company on October 10 this year. Chamber of Commerce! If the conditions offered by this company are better, we can hand over the sole agency rights of IBM-PC in China to it!!!"

"Okay!" The assistant nodded.

……

Around 9: in the morning, Zhao Ye was reading documents in the office.

"Ding-a-ding-a-ding-a-ling!"

the phone is ringing.

"Hello, hello, who are you?" Zhao Ye picked up the phone, said hello and asked. He never imagined that the other end of the phone was calling from IBM...
