Moreover, both of them came from Shanghai Jiaotong University. Could it be that Jiaotong University is prone to geniuses...
"Okay, I'll take care of this. I'll find my old schoolmates, try my best to meet Yu Wenfei, and find out what he means. If he can provide funds to help us acquire IBM's personal computer business, that's still a big deal." It’s a good thing, letting him be our strategic investor in Lenovo at that time is equivalent to adding another powerful ally! I think it’s okay.” Yang Yuanqing became excited as he spoke.
He feels that he has found a solution to the problem, what is a master, he is it!
In adversity, turn unfavorable factors into favorable factors for yourself!
…………
Yang Yuanqing is considered an outstanding alumnus of Jiaotong University. Although he is not very familiar with Principal Lin, he still knows Principal Li.
So, through Principal Li's relationship, Yu Wenfei was contacted.
After Yu Wenfei received the call from Principal Li, he was also quite stunned. He went around a lot, but he didn't expect that Yang Yuanqing was still his senior.
Chapter 668 This is the gap
Principal Li had to give face, and Yu Wenfei also wanted to meet Yang Yuanqing. After acquiring Lenovo and IBM's personal computer business in the future, he still had to count on him to help him manage it. ,
So he readily agreed to let Yang Yuanqing come to the devil to meet him.
After receiving the news, Yang Yuanqing didn't hesitate, and directly bought a ticket for the nearest flight, and flew to Shanghai from the capital.
For this meeting, he made full preparations.
Yang Yuanqing was confident and persuaded his junior Yu Wenfei to let him take a stake in Lenovo and provide financial assistance for his acquisition of IBM.
Originally, his plan was to privately issue shares to IBM to offset the gap in acquisition funds, but IBM was obviously not very interested in Lenovo's shares, so the acquisition has been discussed for so long and there has been no substantial progress.
Since Yu Wenfei also wants to get involved in the personal computer market and has a lot of cash in hand, it is also good news for Lenovo.
You don't need to buy it, I will give you the shares directly, it should be fine.Yuwenfei contributed money, Lenovo's existing management team contributed people, and the two parties joined hands to acquire IBM's personal computer business unit. This is a win-win situation.
Of course, Yang Yuanqing hadn't expected how big Yu Wenfei's appetite would be at this time...
…………
As soon as he got off the plane, Yuwenfei sent someone to take him directly from the airport to Xinzhuang Star Science and Technology Park. Yang Yuanqing finally met his legendary junior, the famous flying boss.
Seeing Pei'er leading a gentle middle-aged man into his office, Yu Wenfei knew that this was Yang Yuanqing, his old senior, and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, Senior Yang."
"President Fei...haha, hello, junior!"
A smile appeared on Yang Yuanqing's face, and from Yu Wenfei's greeting, he could tell that Yu Wenfei was quite polite to him, and he didn't look outside.
After sitting down, let's talk about business first, and then turn to the topic.
"Mr. Fei, I heard that Star Technology under your subsidiary wants to acquire IBM's personal computer business?" When talking about business, Yang Yuanqing's title also became formal.
Yu Wenfei nodded and said with a smile: "It is true. In fact, there is one more thing I can tell you. That is, including your Lenovo Group, which is also the target of my acquisition."
Yang Yuanqing paused with a smile on his face. He didn't expect Yu Wenfei to be so frank, "But... I really can't figure it out. Why did Mr. Fei suddenly become interested in the personal computer business? Everyone knows that the global PC business in the past two years The market is going downhill. Even a giant in the PC industry like IBM is seeking to withdraw completely. Lenovo has no choice but to focus on this main business. However, Feizong is a leader in the Internet industry, and the Internet industry has a brighter future than the personal computer market. That's too much."
Yu Wenfei smiled, turned his head and asked Pei'er behind him, "Bring me my plan to promote the informatization process and show it to Mr. Yang."
What he said was, of course, the plan that he showed Principal Lin.
After Pei'er got it, she handed it to Yang Yuanqing.
Yang Yuanqing knew that the reason why Yu Wenfei got involved in the personal computer business must be in this plan. He was also curious about how a business genius like Yu Wenfei viewed the personal computer business.
When he opened the plan, his reaction was the same as Principal Lin's at that time, and he was immediately stunned.
Because it can be seen from the title that this plan should not be a commercial plan, but more like a government report!
Looking down at the content, the more you look, the more frightened you become.
If Yuwenfei's plan is really implemented, then the domestic personal computer market will inevitably usher in a major reshuffle!
Now those active computer manufacturers on the market, including Lenovo, will definitely have their market share reduced to almost nothing!
It is obvious that computers are standard products without too much design and brand added value. When consumers buy computers, they are most concerned about the configuration.
When several brands of computers with the same configuration are placed together, most of them sell for 5000 yuan, and one of them only sells for 3000 yuan. If it were you, which one would you choose?
The answer is obvious!
Calculating in this way, if Yu Wenfei does not buy Lenovo, but buys other computer manufacturers, such as Founder, Ziguang, etc., then Lenovo will have a very difficult life.
This plan is really a sword of Damocles, hanging over the heads of every computer manufacturer.
After reading it, Yang Yuanqing blurted out, "What exactly is Mr. Fei planning for this plan? Do you know how much money you will lose if you follow this plan?"
He really didn't understand. From the perspective of industry experts, this is not profitable, it is obviously a loss-making business.
It can even be said that if this plan continues to be implemented, huge losses will inevitably occur!
Although the current price of branded computers on the market is very high, it seems that the gross profit is also good, but don’t ignore the labor marketing expenses and channel expenses. After removing those costs, the savings profit is actually not high, otherwise , nor will the entire PC industry be wailing that winter is coming.
A 5000-yuan computer may only cost 3000 yuan if only the cost of accessories is counted.However, labor costs, marketing costs, transportation costs, channel costs, maintenance service costs, etc. are all added up, and the cost may be 400 yuan, so the net profit in the hands of the manufacturer may be less than [-] yuan.
According to Yuwenfei's plan, a computer with a cost of 3000 yuan will only be sold for 3000 yuan. That is not a problem of not making money, but a loss of [-] yuan for a computer!
Even if Yu Wenfei is worth hundreds of millions, can he afford it?
When Yang Yuanqing looked at the plan, he roughly estimated in his heart that if all the costs were compressed to the extreme, the cost of an ordinary household computer that costs 5000 yuan on the market would also cost 3000 yuan. paid 1000 yuan.
What about 5000 million computers...
That's [-] billion!
As a junior, I'm not a layman, so ignore those intangible costs...
Yang Yuanqing had a lot of doubts in his heart.
"Mr. Yang thinks how much loss will be incurred by my plan of 5000 million Huimin computers?" Yu Wenfei asked rhetorically.
"I roughly estimated it, 500 billion!" Yang Yuanqing said with an emphasis.
Yu Wenfei smiled, "Did you add channel expenses and marketing labor into the calculation?"
"Of course, these costs are not only necessary, but also not low! Many laymen say that we sell computers for huge profits, but they don't know the suffering of our computer manufacturers." Yang Yuanqing sighed.
Yu Wenfei shook his head, "These expenses are not essential. Mr. Yang, think about it. If I want to make a computer, do I need marketing and publicity? At that time, the governments of all regions will help us to actively promote it. As for the channels, do we need it?" ?After the acquisition of Lenovo, I will not sell it in the franchise channel at all, but directly in the directly-operated store, or even sell it online? This piece of cost can be reduced to an extremely low level, so 500 billion you It was a mistake."
Yang Yuanqing was stunned for a moment before realizing that what Yu Wenfei said made sense.
