Chapter 73 Boomerang
“Hanxi Dongling Hi-tech Company!”
The BBC TV host said the name of Dongling Hi-Tech in a difficult voice, “You may be interested in this This company is a bit unfamiliar, but the technology industry will never be unfamiliar with this company!
Less than half a year ago, this Chinese company from Hanxi had just signed a contract with Microsoft over the mouse patent! issue, a patent litigation battle was launched, and the lawsuit was ended at the cost of Microsoft's compensation and settlement, becoming the first technology company in the technology industry to ask Microsoft to pay compensation in the past ten years! Experts believe that this lawsuit may have led to the biggest crisis in Microsoft's history at that time. It indirectly led to the formation of the "first anti-Microsoft alliance" by computer manufacturers, software companies, semiconductors and other related companies in the computer industry. However, Microsoft made concessions in time to avoid the crisis of being split up! ”
After briefly introducing Tanglin Hi-tech, BBC TV continued to report, "This electronic pet machine is the second product launched by Tanglin Hi-tech. Since its release, it has been sold in Japan at an unimaginable speed. It has become popular among young people in , America, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangzi, Malaysia, Australia and other places. It is evolving into a new trend and culture.
This kind of trend caused by electronic products! and culture, has never happened before, and previous electronic entertainment products such as computers, game consoles, and Walkmans have never caused such popularity across regions, languages, and ages.
BBC will continue to report on electronics. Follow-up news on the pet machine. Reporters in Hong Kong City will rush to Hanxi Province in the near future to conduct an interview with Dongling Hi-Tech! "
Feng Miaoyu watched the news on TV and felt that something was in his mind for a moment. Can't turn a corner.
She has been in England for almost a year. What she feels the most is the arrogance in the bones of the British, who are called gentlemen. They look down on the Americans and think that they are just a group of nouveau riche across the Atlantic. He looked down upon the Gallic Rooster, thinking that the Gallic Rooster was too lazy, and regarded Germany as a country bumpkin.
As for Asians, in the eyes of the British, there is nothing to comment on, and the media will not report any good things, and are full of contempt. The country in the eyes of the British is still stuck a hundred years ago...
As for the TV media, using a special feature to report on a company or a person is unprecedented, but now she has seen that the BBC TV station used a special feature to report on a domestic company. Although it did not praise Donglin Hi-Tech, it was This domestic company maintains a minimum of respect without any belittling, which is really rare in England and Europe!
For a time, Feng Miaoyu also became somewhat interested in Dongling Hi-Tech. Thousands of miles away, in the media in a foreign country, he saw reports about Tanglin Hi-Tech. Subconsciously, Feng Miaoyu I feel that Tanglin Hi-Tech should be one of the best technology companies in the country. Otherwise, why would it be specially reported by the BBC? These days, foreign media are still quite influential in the eyes of many Chinese people, and are even regarded as so-called daring to report. The truth...
Not only Feng Miaoyu, but also Chinese people studying in England, and viewers who can watch BBC TV. After this report, they all have some impressions of Tanglin Hi-Tech and the electronic pet machine.
The phone rang in the apartment. Feng Miaoyu got up from the sofa, picked up the phone, heard the voice on the phone, and shouted, "Sister!"
The two Feng sisters, Feng Miaoyu's sister Feng Miaoyu, worked as an editor at Yanjing Commercial Daily. Their mother passed away early. When Feng Miaoyu went out to do business, she was taken care of by Feng Miaoyu. It is not an exaggeration to say that an eldest sister is like a mother. Needless to say, there is no need to mention the relationship between sisters.
After talking to Feng Miaoyu for a few words on the phone, she remembered the news she had just seen on the TV, "Sister, have you heard of Dongling High-tech?!"
"Dongli Ling Hi-Tech? "
Feng Miaoyu thought for a moment when Feng Miaoyu said this, and then thought that Feng Miaoyu was talking about Dongling Hi-Tech's lawsuit with Microsoft and her refusal to invest in Stone Group. thing.
“I heard that this is a new technology company that has made a lot of noise this year, but why did you mention this company?!”
"Just now, BBC TV station reported on Tanglin Hi-Tech in a special feature. It also said that one of Tanglin Hi-Tech's products was sold like crazy in Japan and America!"
"Silver Sable Mouse?”
After hearing this, Feng Miaoyu felt a little overwhelmed. As a media person, of course she had heard of the famous name of the British BBC, but the silver sable mouse was sold out, but she didn’t. As I said, Silver Sable is selling well in China, but it is far from crazy. This is the case even in China, let alone abroad.
“It’s not a mouse, it’s an electronic pet machine!” Feng Miaoyu said.
Hearing this product that she had never heard of before, as a media person, Feng Miaoyu instinctively felt that there might be a big news that she didn't know about.
"Take care of yourself in England, and give dad a call when you have time. The old man really misses you!" After telling Feng Miaoyu, Feng Miaoyu hung up the phone and started to get busy.
This is not the Internet era yet. Everyone is a self-media person. No matter what happens anywhere, it can be spread all over the world in an instant and make headlines in various countries.
Feng Miaoyu first found newspapers and media in Guangdong Province, which is close to the port city and will report more overseas news. In this regard, the conditions are indeed unique compared to the inland media.
After reading several newspapers, I finally saw a report about the electronic pet machine in one newspaper. The above report said that the electronic pet machine is the favorite electronic product of young men and women in Hong Kong. It is a hot-selling product. As long as a store sells electronic pet machines, it can attract hundreds of people to queue up.
Other media and newspapers also have sporadic reports on electronic pet machines in Japan, Singapore and other places, but there is no word about Tanglin Hi-Tech in these reports.
This situation attracted Feng Miaoyu's interest more and more. He approached the editor-in-chief of the newspaper and wanted to contact the newspaper's overseas news partners. Although Yanjing Business News did not have overseas reporters, it could contact Hong Kong City and Japan. News media organizations in Benzene, Singapore, New York, London and other places also have cooperative relationships, so it is not difficult to find out some information!
The next day, Feng Miaoyu, who had been sorting out information all night with dark circles under her eyes, took another big sip of cold tea. She was not sleepy at the moment, but in high spirits. She felt that this report had been published After that, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire domestic industry and commerce.
For this report, she contacted a number of overseas media that cooperated with Yanjing Business News. Although the specific data is not accurate yet, it is a rough estimate of how many electronic pet machines Dongling Hi-Tech has sold and its revenue. She sorted out how many, including the impact on Nippon Bandai Company.
After reviewing it again, Feng Miaoyu walked into the editor-in-chief's office.
"The Oriental Magic Machine went abroad to earn 60 million U.S. dollars!"
As one of the oldest economic newspapers in China, Yanjing Business Daily has a large audience, especially the newspapers that often publish theoretical articles and Comments, and some celebrities in the economic industry are invited to analyze certain industries, and sometimes even blow up policy changes in certain industries. Therefore, they have attracted the attention of many municipal departments and companies, and have little influence in Yanjing and surrounding areas. Small.
As for the people who received the Yanjing Business News today, many of them were startled when they saw this title. The first thing they felt was that these well-known large companies in China are now... Something happened.
But after opening it, what I saw was the name of Dongling Hi-Tech, and above it was Feng Miayu's report on the electronic pet machine.
“The electronic pet machine launched by Hanxi Dongling Hi-Tech has been on sale for less than two months, and its estimated sales have exceeded 4 million units. Based on the overseas selling price of the electronic pet machine, the total revenue has reached 6,000 yuan. With a revenue of US$10,000, it has become the company with the highest foreign exchange income among domestic private companies. The electronic pet machine is also one of the most popular electronic products exported overseas in the history of domestic products.
Bandai Company, which sells electronic pet machines in Japan, has soared by more than 60% due to the sale of this product, making it the best-performing company in Japan's stock market this year. America R Us also has sales of this product. The stock price increased by more than 17%, and the stock price hit a three-year high..."
When Yanjing Business News released this report, many people's first reaction was to be confused and not believe it. .
I have never heard of an electronic pet machine at all, and this also breaks their thinking. Generally, domestic companies develop new products and sell them domestically first. If they cannot be sold domestically, they will then Find ways to "lose money" selling overseas, yes sell at a loss. Nowadays, export companies have never thought about making money overseas. They all sell at a loss. Overseas sales are cheaper than domestic ones, and they rely on low prices to make money. After returning the foreign exchange, we can then rely on export subsidies to make up for the losses.
For example, Donglin High-tech did not sell it domestically, but went directly to foreign countries to sell it, and it was still possible to earn so much foreign exchange. This was unprecedented in China. It has never happened before. The first reaction of people who saw the news was that the Yanjing Business Daily reported it wrong and it was fake news.
At least, Wang, the boss of Yanjing Tiancheng Trading Company. Tian'an, when I saw this newspaper, my first feeling was that I didn't believe what was in the newspaper was true. Tanglin Hi-tech had previously established a joint laboratory with Hanxi Jiaotong University and Binh Duong University. He also criticized Tanglin Hi-tech. He only has a little money and doesn't know what his last name is. He dares to imitate the labs of big foreign companies. It's just a fool's errand. Currently, domestic companies can only work for foreign companies. This is his point of view.
But if this report is true, Wang Tiancheng felt his face getting hot when he thought of what he said in front of the media. He didn't believe that the boomerang would hit him so quickly.
“It can’t be true!”
Wang Tianan gritted his teeth and said, preparing to pick up the phone, find overseas partners to find out the situation, and then expose it in the media to Yanjing Business News Lies, he has been engaged in foreign trade for so many years, how can he not know the virtues of domestic companies? !
