Chapter 358 Blitz
As the headquarters of Dongling High-tech, Yao Zhengru, Wu Yaoguo and others are naturally very concerned about Dongling High-tech, knowing that the co-branded Shenzhou USB flash drives are selling well.
What is the base camp and basic base? That is, Dongling Hi-Tech is in Hanxi and can get a lot of resource support. Just like the Tianya Pinyin Input Method, it does not need public relations. When it is announced that the parent company of the Tianya Input Method, After Tanglin High-tech, Hanxi Provincial Government and Pingyang City Government began to purchase Tianya input method.
Including Wu Yaoguo’s Hanxi State Investment, they all purchased a batch of co-branded USB flash drives. There are many companies like Hanxi State Investment in Hanxi. It’s hard to say in other places, but in Hanxi, Tianya Pinyin input method is definitely profitable.
“The sales volume of Shenzhou Tianya’s co-branded USB flash drive really exceeded 90,000 copies?”
Wu Yaoguo asked Li Dongling curiously. Yao Zhengru and Zhang Xiaocheng also cast curious glances. They all knew the current selling price of USB flash drives. For tens of thousands of USB flash drives, the sales could exceed tens of millions.
“The joint-branded USB flash drive has sold over 100,000 units!”
As for Yao Zhengru and other “his own people”, Li Dongling had nothing to hide and said directly to them, Just now, Guo Jingyun reported to him on the phone the sales volume of Tianya Input Method.
Yao Zhengru and others couldn't help but be surprised when they heard that the joint-brand USB flash drive had sold more than 100,000 yuan. Even though they already knew Dongling Hi-Tech's ability to attract money, such sales still made them unable to help Surprised by it.
“But now that pirated and copycat versions of the Tianya Pinyin input method have begun to appear, it is difficult for the sales of co-branded U disks to continue to increase!”
Li Dongling saw the expressions of Yao Zhengru, Wu Yaoguo and others, shook his head and said, this joint USB flash drive is a trick. After the pirated Tianya Pinyin input method appeared, he bought a copy for several hundred yuan just to get a set of input methods. This kind of USB flash drive may not pop up too much anymore.
However, the co-branded USB flash drive is probably still sold. Not everyone is a computer expert and can easily find various resources. Just like the old drivers in later generations, they have to ask for it everywhere. Resources, even for veteran drivers, current computer users will still need to buy co-branded USB flash drives.
“What a pity!”
Yao Zhengru sighed, the more Shenzhou USB flash drives are sold, the more taxes will be paid and the more jobs will be provided.
Especially after Tanglin Hi-Tech reached an agreement with Nichibe Toshiba and acquired Nichibe's flash memory factory in Singapore, Shenzhou Storage basically mastered the full set of processes and technologies for U disk production.
Shenzhou Storage is considering expanding the production of this flash memory particle factory, or investing in a new flash memory factory in Hanxi after absorbing the technology of this flash memory factory. No matter which way it is, the more U disks will be sold. , which is beneficial to Shenzhou Storage, which has just established itself from Dongling Hi-tech.
“Brother Li, it’s okay if he doesn’t take action. Once he does, it’s astonishing. I see media reports that Wangma Wubi Typing, which has dominated domestic computer input methods for 12 years, will be replaced by Tianya Input Method!”
Wu Yaoguo smiled and said to Li Dongling, although many media are reporting that computer users are more receptive to Pinyin input method, but if you can really say that you want to replace Wangma Company in the input method industry, then It must be the Hanxi media.
Li Dongling sighed and said, "The Tianya Pinyin input method has no intention of replacing Wangma. It is the computer user's own choice which input method they are willing to use!"
Li Dongling's words are not empty talk. , even if the Wubi input method declines in the future, and only less than 3% of hundreds of millions of computer users are willing to continue using Wubi, no one can deny the contribution of Wangma Company and Wang Yongmin to the domestic Chinese character input method.
If it weren't for Wang Yongmin, the current domestic computer input method might have been Latinized long ago. That is, typing on the computer cannot produce Chinese characters, and everyone uses English to communicate. That is, if you don't know English, you can't use the computer!
If that happens, computers will probably become a "high-end" industry in China. Only a very small number of people who can speak English can play with computers. Countless users in the country are isolated from the computer industry. Besides, whether the Internet can take off in China is probably a question.
In the future, if Wangma Company declines, then Li Dongling is going to let Tianya Company acquire Wangma Company and bring Wubi Input Method into the Tianya Input Method camp.
Wubi will definitely decline in the future, but it will never disappear. Whether it is its speed or accuracy, it is unique among all input methods, including voice input methods. The time has come!
Another point is that as long as the Wubi input method can be improved, before the voice input method matures, it can provide input method needs for another special group!
Some deaf-mute people are born, but most of them are already deaf before they have established the concept of Pinyin. Even if they practice it later, they will not be able to learn Pinyin due to pronunciation problems. At this time, Wubi typing is a problem for them. , is the most suitable input method.
Deaf-mute people also have the need to access the Internet. The Wubi input method can provide them with such channels. Not only the input method, but also the accessibility mode in the mobile phone era, etc., allow more people to experience it. To the age of technology!
The development of the technology industry is not only about making money, but also needs to provide services to more users in need. I don’t dare to say how well Dongling Hi-Tech will do in the future, but it should do what it should do and what it should bear. Social responsibility is definitely something that needs to be done.
If Donglin Hi-Tech, the most profitable company, doesn’t do it, which company can you expect to do it?
In addition, the acquisition of Wangma Company and the patent for the Wubi input method may seem useless now, but after a few years, the patent for the input method will begin to be useful.
Wangma Company has nothing to do with those infringing companies, but Tianya Company is different. Dongling Hi-Tech's legal team is not a freeloader! In the future input method war, Tianya Input Method will hold a large number of patents in its hands and rely on the support of the legal team of its parent company Dongling Hi-Tech, which will be enough to defeat other opponents.
Yao Zhengru took a sip of tea, looked at Wu Yaoguo and Zhang Xiaocheng, and then Zhang Xiaocheng took the lead and said to Li Dongling, "Mr. Li, the first batch of lighters from the Torch Group has been shipped. Line, do you want to start selling goods now? "
Today Yao Zhengru, Zhang Xiaocheng, and Wu Yaoguo came over. What they really wanted to talk to Li Dongling was about the Torch Group.
This is one of the most important projects in Pingyang, and even Hanxi and the Economic and Trade Commission. It affects the fate of too many people and cannot be missed at all.
If Torch Group's lighters cannot be sold and the entire project is stretched, no one dares to imagine what the consequences will be. Anyway, Pingyang and Hanxi are not willing to see that scene. No one will be able to clean up the mess by then. Well, after all, there are too many people involved!
Zhang Xiaocheng had already called Li Dongling countless times when he went to Yanjing. Now that Li Dongling returned to Pingyang, Zhang Xiaocheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and pulled Wu Yaoguo over.
"What is the output of Torch Group's first batch of lighters?" Li Dongling asked Zhang Xiaocheng.
“Five million!”
Zhang Xiaocheng said. When he said this number, he was also a little flustered. He hurried over in a hurry because the inventory of Torch Group had already been loaded. A large quantity of goods arrived.
Currently, Torch Group's production line is still in continuous production. Whether the first batch of lighters can be sold is related to the future success or failure of Torch Group, so he can't help but worry.
He didn't know what Yao Zhengru, Wu Yaoguo, the Hanxi Provincial Government, the Economic and Trade Commission, etc. were worried about, but he needed to think about the large group of people who were currently eating at the Torch Group.
Li Dongling nodded upon hearing this, "The marketing department of Dongling Hi-Tech and Focus Media will assist Torch in selling and promoting Torch Group's lighters!"
As early as the establishment of Torch Group At the beginning, Tanglin Hi-Tech reached an agreement with Torch Group, promising that Donglin Hi-Tech's marketing department would help Torch Group promote the lighters produced by Torch Group. This is why Torch Group dared to give it a go.
Without the support of Tanglin High-tech, Torch Group and the departments and units such as Han Tay State Investment Corporation, Binh Duong City Government, Han Tay Provincial Government, Economic and Trade Commission, Foreign Exchange Department, Development and Reform and other departments that support it would have to weigh it. .
"The marketing department of Dongling Hi-Tech will look for underwriters and dealers for Torch lighters. In addition, Torch Group needs to reach cooperation with supply and marketing cooperatives, hotels, guest houses, etc.!"
Li Dongling said to Zhang Xiaocheng, this is also true After telling Yao Zhengru and Wu Yaoguo that although supply and marketing cooperatives are in decline, they are still the strongest retail channels in the country, especially in counties, towns, rural areas, etc. Its sales channels are unmatched.
Lighters are very special. They require too many sales channels. Li Dongling needs supply and marketing cooperatives, shopping malls, small supermarkets, hotels, guest houses, restaurants and other channels to sell Torch Group's products.
"Torch Group can provide 20% of profits to sellers. If the sales volume reaches a certain level, it can also give them another part of the profits!" Li Dongling said.
“Give the dealer 20% of the profit?” Zhang Xiaocheng couldn’t help shouting.
You must know that the lighters that Torch Group is preparing to sell in China are expected to be sold at around one RMB. Now, Torch Group produces a lighter at a cost of around RMB 40. This is still based on Torch Group, which has invested a large amount of money and established The entire lighter industry chain requires mass production, otherwise the cost will be higher.
But it seems that there is a lot of profit, but the production cost, coupled with the costs of labor, freight, channels, publicity and other costs, there is really not much profit left for the Torch Group in the end.
Give dealers 20% of profits. In the end, it is hard to say whether Torch Group can still make 20% of profits.
Li Dongling glanced at Zhang Xiaocheng, "The Torch Group needs to occupy the market as quickly as possible and not give other competitors any chance to challenge the Torch Group. Whether they are domestic or foreign competitors, in order to sell sales, they may need to give distributors Let’s get a higher profit commission!”
When these words came out, Yao Zhengru and Zhang Xiaocheng were a little surprised.
