Chapter 823 The King of This Territory(1/2)
At the hearing, Liu Qingshan used his actions to challenge the power.
The reaction of the people was a bit unexpected, and most of the American people expressed their support.
Liu Qingshan was quite puzzled: Is your government too unpopular, or are these people having a spirit of resistance in their bones?
He couldn't care about so much. After the Xinlianxin Art Troupe finished its performance in Washington, the next stop was Boston, and Liu Qingshan would also fly over to meet.
He basically didn't have to worry about the performance. He mainly went to Wang'an's computer headquarters for a walk.
After accepting Wang An's computer, Jiang Renyi was transferred to take charge of the overall situation.
Liu Qingshan was also very relieved to help with the famous professional manager Miller and John Chambers, known as the "Mr. Internet".
Wang'an Computer Company alone has more than 20,000 employees, which is definitely a big company.
Liu Qingshan got off the plane, and Jiang Renyi led the company's executives and was already waiting at the airport.
Liu Qingshan and Yu Miao returned on the same plane, and smiled and said to Jiang Renyi, "Your girlfriend returns the jade to Zhao."
Jiang Renyi also laughed loudly, hugged Liu Qingshan hard, and then gently hugged Yu Miao.
Let's drive to a small town on the outskirts of the city, which is the base camp where Wang'an Computer has been operating for decades.
This town basically survives on Wang'an Computer's subsidiaries, so it is considered a small kingdom.
When Liu Qingshan comes here, he is equivalent to the king of this territory.
The headquarters building, WANG's logo, is still shining.
Liu Qingshan looked up and sighed in his heart: If Wang An computer was about to go bankrupt according to the inertia of history, this dazzling brand in the computer field would fall like a comet.
And now, he takes over and must keep the brand alive because it is the pride of Chinese people.
In front of the headquarters building, Liu Qingshan and President John hugged each other warmly, followed by Miller and others, all of whom came up to greet Liu Qingshan.
This young boss usually meets the dragon but never meets the head and the end of the dragon. He rarely meets once a year, so of course he should perform well.
The most important thing is that everyone has feelings for Wang'an Computer. After the new boss takes over, he is only responsible for formulating the company's development route, and the rest of the matter will be handled by these executives themselves.
Everyone has a greater degree of freedom at work, and everyone likes this working atmosphere.
To put it bluntly, these executives have real power in their hands and are not underestimated by the superiors, so of course they are happy.
Everyone entered the headquarters building together and gathered in the reception room. There was a large round table full of people.
Liu Qingshan was not in a hurry to speak, he had to listen to reports from various departments first.
Of course, the executive president John Chambers first gave a work report. John was directly promoted from a department manager to a CEO by Liu Qingshan. At the beginning, there were still some doubts within the company.
However, as the work unfolded, this Internet gentleman demonstrated outstanding work ability, which convinced everyone.
What the executives admire even more is their boss Liu Qingshan. There is really no one in his eyes.
This also makes everyone work harder at work, because they know that the new boss is not a confused insect like Wang Lie, and his eyes are bright.
If you don’t work hard, you may be replaced by a more capable person one day. They will never doubt the boss’s vision of discovering talents.
John was aware of the company's situation, so he didn't need to prepare any materials at all, so he just said:
"Last year, our company's revenue was basically the same, but please rest assured that we will definitely turn losses into profits this year."
Liu Qingshan smiled and nodded: "It is not easy to do this. Thank you for your hard work for the company."
This is the truth, because before Liu Qingshan took over, Wang An's computer suffered huge losses and had to spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year.
Such a big hole can be blocked in one year, which is enough to prove everyone's work results.
After hearing what Liu Qingshan said, everyone's hearts were completely stable. What they were most worried about was that Liu Qingshan was young. The biggest problem of young people was that they were more radical and were prone to quick success and instant benefits.
But it is obvious that Liu Qingshan is more calmer than everyone here.
John also smiled and nodded to Liu Qingshan, and his heart was full of gratitude, and then he reported in detail:
"In terms of the company's large-scale commercial computers, the performance last year remained stable, with a surplus of 12 million US dollars."
Wang'an computers have always been the focus of development in this regard, so they were eliminated in the great era when personal computers emerged.
However, after Liu Qingshan took over, he did not abandon this part, because it was a pity to throw away such high-end things.
John continued to report: "Our scientific research department has achieved gratifying results, but it is also a big money-eating company. Last year, the investment in the research institute consumed nearly 100 million yuan."
The reason why Wang An computer loses money is that it is dragged into the quagmire by the huge research institute.
Therefore, many people advocate reducing the scientific research team.
John also truthfully reported this situation to Liu Qingshan. As for how to make the final decision, he still has to listen to Liu Qingshan.
"A company, without strong scientific research capabilities, cannot survive in a fiercely competitive market."
Liu Qingshan also expressed his opinion. He knew the role of scientific research too well. In the future, he would feel very uncomfortable being stuck in chips and other fields.
So even if he makes money, he will not ban Wang An's computer research institute.
Many technologies can be made out in the future and then shared.
After hearing Liu Qingshan's words, John's eyes lit up, and his eyes became more enthusiastic and respectful when he looked at Liu Qingshan.
John knew that if he was just a pure businessman without vision, he would definitely not be willing to fill this big hole in order to maximize his interests.
The ability of your boss to have this mind is enough to prove that his goal is great and able to lead the company to fly higher and farther.
Correspondingly, these people can reach a higher level.
So John calmed down his excitement and continued: "Our company's profit last year mainly came from the development and application of personal computers."
The big hole in scientific research is blocked through this aspect, so we can basically achieve a balance of income and expenditure.
This is also the new development idea proposed by Liu Qingshan after he took over Wang An's computer.
The original Wang'an Computer bet on all its resources on large commercial computers, and did not keep up with the pace of development of the times.
After Liu Qingshan took over, he shared a number of technologies with companies such as IBM and began to enter the relatively low-end personal computer field.
It was this area that Wang An computer used to look down on, and its annual revenue reached hundreds of millions of US dollars, which enabled the company to get out of the quagmire.
The executives who had doubts about this project are now only admired.
As the CEO of the company, John only introduces the specific departments from the overall perspective and handes them over to their respective persons in charge for reporting.
This is also one of the unspoken rules of the company, you cannot monopolize it alone.
Next, Mr. Miller, who is in charge of sales, focused on introducing the sales of personal computers.
In this regard, in accordance with the principles formulated by Liu Qingshan, personalized design is highlighted.
Just like keyboards and mouses, they are now ordinary standards; while Wang'an computers have taken a different approach, adding some cooler shapes in terms of appearance design, reaching out to the younger group's favorites, so they have good sales results.
In this regard, Liu Qingshan’s suggestion is: continue to expand the production of personal computers.
Because he knew so well that personal computers will show explosive growth in the next twenty years.
Then Jiang Renyi reported on the achievements of the research institute. Although he was a big money-eating player, his achievements were also very impressive.
Just like the WPS series developed by research and development, in addition to word processing, table processing has been added, which has been well received by users.
These software are applied to personal computers sold by Wang'an computers, which actually creates invisible wealth.
Currently, this WPS system is on par with Microsoft's Orpheus office system.
The research institute is catching up on time to study secret weapons. If it can be applied before Microsoft, then it is really like Gates said: Nothing is going to happen to Microsoft.
In his report, Jiang Renyi also mentioned that the research and development of optical drives has been successful. After all, this is not a very high-end thing.
At this moment, floppy disks are still commonly used in computers, but Liu Qingshan knew that optical drives were the mainstream of future development, so he decided on this research project early and applied for multiple patents.
Facts have proved that CDs are far superior to floppy disks, with larger storage volume, more use and more widely used.
People from the research institute are now generally optimistic about this project.
Because Wang'an Computer has strong scientific research capabilities, it has many patents. Even IBM Coveted these patents, so it shared technology with Wang'an Computer.
However, Jiang Renyi said that there is still a lack of unified standards in the production, processing and use of CDs, and it may be very troublesome to apply them in the future.
Liu Qingshan smiled and said, "Then we will take the lead and organize industry insiders to hold a meeting to study a unified standard on the specifications and capacity of the CD."
"It doesn't work for each other to fight alone and must be unified."
In Liu Qingshan's memory, this meeting seemed to be held next year and was located in Europe.
Now that Wang'an's computer is one step ahead, it is necessary to act as a leader.
Those who follow the rules will never be as good as those who set the rules. This is an international common rule.
The executives here quickly figured out the benefits of doing so and were all excited.
Miller directly took on this task and invited representatives of Internet companies and CD production and processing companies to attend the conference, which was initially named "Laser Revolution".
Another key scientific research project is the research and development of optoelectronic mice, which is currently underway.
This was also planned by Liu Qingshan. After all, the mouse now has a rolling ball under it, which is very difficult to use.
After everyone finished reporting, the afternoon passed. Liu Qingshan finally stood up with a smile:
"Everyone, I am very satisfied with everyone's efforts over the past year. In order to express my sincere gratitude, I personally will give out a bonus of 5 million US dollars to reward employees."
To be continued...
