Chapter 36 and Yourong Yan
When Chen Tao and other staff members of the mouse project team heard Li Dongling’s words and then looked at the mouse placed on the experimental table, their first reaction was relief, and then excitement Feelings, but in the end, I felt a little bit lost.
This is not Chen Tao and the others who miss the devastation of being asked to redo it over and over again by Li Dongling, but the sense of emptiness that comes from finally succeeding in developing a product that they have put in so much effort into.
In the mouse project team, Li Wentao, who was responsible for making the model, almost cried at this time. There was no 3D printing technology at this time, and the model had to be rubbed by hand.
The early models of the mouse were first made of wood and then polished. Li Wentao was the person in charge of making the wooden models. His hands are now covered with calluses, and even the mouse models are made for him. Vomited.
After receiving the news, the rest of the people at Dongling Hi-Tech, Hu Xian, Yao Luoying, Gao Peng, Li Dongshan and others, all rushed to the laboratory.
When Hu Xian, Yao Luoying and others saw this mouse, the first thing they felt was "exquisite and beautiful". Even people who know nothing about mechanical technology would feel the same when they saw this mouse. Give birth to this feeling.
The milky white mouse has smooth lines. It is not the square mouse that is popular nowadays. The corners and corners of the mouse have all turned into arcs. There is no place to touch your hands and you can use it with one hand. The mouse is wrapped.
Hu Xian, Yao Luoying, Gao Peng and others have all tried the mouse. The first feeling when touching the mouse is that it is smooth. It is very comfortable after holding the mouse. The moment when the index finger presses it, there is a slight mechanical movement. In terms of pressing feel, the silver-gray rolling ball at the bottom has some weight, but it does not feel bulky. The surface of the rolling ball is soft and frosted. With a special mouse pad, Yao Luoying feels that it is full of operation.
After a few minutes of experience, Yao Luoying felt that using this mouse to operate is much more convenient than using DOS operating instructions.
Reluctantly putting down the mouse, Yao Luoying looked at Li Dongling, "What is the name of this mouse?!"
"Silver Sable, this is the first mouse launched by Dongling Hi-Tech, the mechanical Silver Sable mouse!" Look Seeing the looks Yao Luoying, Hu Xian and others were looking at, Li Dongling thought for a moment and said.
The group came to the conference room next to the laboratory. Li Dongling looked at everyone, "Next, the most important thing for Dongling Hi-Tech is production, promotion and sales!
But in Before that, the patent and technology of the Silver Sable Mouse must be applied for globally!”
Hearing what Li Dongling said, Hu Xian couldn’t help but said, “If you apply for a patent globally, I’m afraid it will cost a lot of money! Cost! ”
Hu Xian's thinking is still in the country. For most or even more than 90% of the domestic companies, their thoughts are on the domestic one-third of an acre. As for the overseas market, they basically give up automatically. Crazy in the country If you are involved with your peers, even if you sell a TV, air conditioner, refrigerator, etc., as long as you still make a dollar, you will continue to do business, and you will not go overseas to compete with those foreign brands.
In other words, I dare not. In China, whether it is cars, electronic products, clothing, furniture and other high-end brands, they are basically controlled by foreign countries. Foreign brands are better than domestic ones. This has almost formed There is a consensus, not to mention those who buy things, even the domestic companies that produce these things, most of them have this idea.
In this case, we don’t care about patents, exclusive technologies, etc., since we don’t need them in China anyway, they are just copying each other’s work.
Applying for a patent overseas requires extra money, and no one is willing to do it.
But Yao Luoying, who studied at Hong Kong City University, immediately understood what Li Dongling meant. Now the companies in Hong Kong City are encountering brand difficulties. The current clothing, textile, electronics, home appliances and other industries in Hong Kong City are At its peak, its products were sold all over the world.
Companies in Hong Kong City now want to hit the high-end brand market and eat the fattest piece of meat, but they are faced with difficulties. In the past few years, most of the electronics, clothing, jewelry and other companies in Hong Kong City have imitated and copied overseas products. Brand, I never thought about establishing my own brand. Now I want to hit the high-end market. How can I do it easily?
“The patent and technology of the mechanical silver sable mouse must be in the hands of Dongling Hi-tech, no matter what the price is paid!”
Li Dongling said solemnly, and then looked at Hu Xian and others, "Who said that only foreign brands can enter the domestic market, why can't domestic products be sold abroad?!"
Hu Huxian was stunned when he heard this. In this era, there have been various There are even madmen like Boss Mou and the giant Boss Shi, who only claims to be the second person in the domestic technology industry after Bill Gates. As for competing with foreign brands and selling products abroad, no one has yet Dare to speak out!
Compared to Hu Xian, Yao Luoying and Gao Peng are much younger, and they are at their most passionate years. After hearing Li Dongling’s words, she couldn’t help but feel excited. Yao Luoying looked at Li Dongling with eyes full of excitement. heterochromatic. Gao Peng's face turned red and he clenched his fists. How many people would dare to compete head-on with foreign brands these days? !
Hu Xian shook his head. He was a veteran of the world and knew how difficult this road was. What surprised Hu Xian was that, let alone whether Li Dongling could live up to his big words, he dared to call companies that compete with foreign brands these days. , is already rare, today Hu Xian feels like getting to know Li Dongling again.
“The company in Hong Kong City specializes in applying for patents and technology as an agent. You can entrust the patent agency company in Hong Kong City to apply for patents for Donglin Hi-Tech. It is only the agency fee, maybe It will be higher!”
Yao Luoying said that people from companies in Hong Kong City have dealt with overseas companies a lot and have been fined with patent sanctions. They have begun to understand the importance of patents. Some companies in Hong Kong City have He specializes in patent business. Wherever there is money to be made, no matter how remote it is, there will be people doing it.
“It’s up to you to do this. Find a reliable company. The patent matter must be settled as soon as possible!”
Li Dongling said to Yao Luoying that it would be more convenient to have a specialized patent agency to do it, even if it charges a fee. Otherwise, Dongling Hi-tech would have to apply for patents all over the world. I don't know how long it will be delayed.
"Manager Hu, you are familiar with the situation in Guangdong Province. Please lead a team to Guangdong Province to find a suitable parts manufacturer for the Silver Sable Mouse and put the Silver Sable Mouse into production as soon as possible!"< br>
"I have no problem!" Hu Xian responded directly.
Li Dongling looked at Gao Peng aside, "If you want to promote the Silver Sable Mouse, in addition to advertising, you need to let it participate in computer shows so that more computer manufacturers can see it. Gao Pengqian and the people in the sales department , take the Silver Sable Mouse to the Yangcheng Computer Exhibition!”
After the Chinese New Year this year, the news about reducing computer tariffs released last year will be officially announced. By the middle of the year at the latest, computer tariffs will be reduced to 26. %, this also means that computer giants such as IBM, Compaq, and HP will enter the country. This makes this year’s Yangcheng Computer Exhibition the most lively exhibition in history. Countless computer manufacturers and parts are gearing up to prepare. Have a blast.
"Dongli Hi-tech will first seek cooperation with domestic computer manufacturers, and then look for opportunities to get orders from foreign manufacturers!"
Li Dongling said that he was going to make the silver sable mouse first inside and outside, although he just said that he would make the silver sable mouse Mink competes with foreign mouse brands such as Logitech, but bravery does not mean recklessness. You must have your own basic base to survive.
Although mice are now sold at retail, the majority of mouse sales are still bundled with computers. Even the world's largest mouse giant, Logitech, the king of computer peripherals, still has to work for people.
HP’s current mouse is purchased from Logitech. The technology and production are all done by Logitech, but the logo on it is HP’s. After becoming famous in the past few years, it cooperated with Apple to launch a mouse. This mouse can now have the Logitech logo on it.
Li Dongling hopes that the Silver Sable Mouse can get orders from domestic computer brands such as Lenovo, Great Wall, Inspur, Qixi, Shida, etc., and then hit the foreign market. You can shout slogans, but you have to have a full stomach first.
Hu Xian and Gao Peng took the lead to go south to Guangdong Province. Yao Luoying contacted her classmates at City University of Hong Kong and found a patent agency to handle the patent matter. The people in the mouse project team continued to polish the silver sable mouse. When mass production began, they also Having to deal with technical issues, Chen Tao did not take any time off and started getting busy on the digital cordless phone.
Donngling Hi-Tech suddenly became quiet. Li Dongling contacted Hu Xian and Gao Peng on the phone basically every day.
Over at the Shangguan Town Component Factory, Li Dongling went there once after the new year started and took away a dividend, so he didn’t pay too much attention to it because the satellite pot market had been completely eroded and there was a domestic phenomenon. Hundreds of satellite pot brands have been launched to engage in price wars. The era of satellite pots with cabbage prices has arrived!
Yangcheng Computer Exhibition, even if it rains heavily today, there is still a long queue outside the exhibition venue. Bonas, who hurried over, raised the work card in his hand and saw this work card. The venue staff immediately asked Bonas to enter the venue through the exhibitor's passage. This work sign belongs to Microsoft!
As a Microsoft man, Bonas is very proud. No matter where in the world, as long as he shows his job card, he will receive envious, respectful looks and treatment. This is the global The largest technology giant with a market value of over 40 billion U.S. dollars. With the strength of a technology overlord, even an employee can be honored and enjoy the applause and glory.
