Rebirth: From Computer System to World Richest

Chapter 20 Several Major Computer Brands Are Anxious!

Huipu, Dai Er, Lian Xiang...

Almost all well-known brand computer manufacturers have encountered this situation.

As for Fruit Company, it is well known that it is not suitable for ordinary users, so this problem does not arise.

In the past, August, as the last period before the start of the school year, was often the peak period for computer sales. Win systems and major computer vendors would also offer various levels of student discounts.

This year, due to various changes, the sales of major computer brands plummeted. On the contrary, the computer assembly stores in Computer City were full of people, and many stores were sold out!

In addition, it is less than a week before the official start of school for freshmen. Some schools with earlier start times will start in two days, so anxious parents have chosen to buy assembled computers.

Many computer stores are getting goods from suppliers. Unlike the inventory of brand-name computers, computer assembly generally involves temporary transfers of goods, or they are assembled according to customer needs and then picked up, so that suppliers are also very busy. .

According to HP's sales department statistics, the losses caused by these reasons have far exceeded Microsoft's liquidated damages!

Faced with this situation, Huipu made a decisive decision and immediately sent someone to visit Beichen Technology!

The situation at this moment is not that Beichen Technology is begging Huipu for promotion, but that Huipu has to ask Beichen Technology for help in order to stop losses in time!

After losing his disguise, Qiao Feng no longer concealed it, and had a fierce confrontation with Luo Yang on cooperation. The main difference between the two parties was whether to promote the Beichen system on a global scale!

"No, unless Beichen Technology is willing to pay up to US$80 million in liquidated damages, absolutely not!"

"It's impossible to pay for it, not even a penny!"

Luo Yang's attitude is very determined and he won't give in an inch of ground!

Finally, after Qiao Feng consulted the board of directors of HP, HP made concessions.

HP agreed to promote Beichen Computer Operating System globally, but Beichen System must give in on system discounts!

The two parties have reached an agreement that a 2.5% rebate will be left to HP for the Beichen system pre-installed on every HP computer. This means that for every 299 yuan regular version system sold, HP will receive a sales rebate of 7.475 yuan!

The price of Win system is higher, so the profit margin given to Hewlett-Packard is large. In this regard, Beichen system cannot be calculated according to the standards of Win system.

For this reason, Beichen Technology has also made concessions. While HP is selling Beichen systems, it will not give up selling win systems. The final sales volume depends entirely on the market.

Users can choose whichever they are willing to buy!

At least in the domestic market, Beichen Technology is confident that it will kill Microsoft!

For example, for a 5,000 yuan HP computer, users who pre-install the regular version of the win system need to pay an additional 1,088 yuan, and the final price is 6,088 yuan!

But what about the cost?

HP purchases OEM serial numbers from Microsoft. One serial number can be loaded onto multiple computers, and the average price of each computer is less than 100 yuan! What a huge profit!

The pre-installed Beichen system only costs 5,299 yuan!

A full saving of 789 yuan!

In addition to computer operating systems, HP has also agreed to purchase a batch of Beichen server systems and use them on its own entry-level servers, but they will need to be adapted and adjusted before they can be officially launched.

If the performance and stability do not meet HP's standards, HP will remove the Beichen server system from the shelves without hesitation!

Luo Yang agreed, he was very confident in the Beichen server system.

In order to prevent regret, both parties also set the amount of liquidated damages, which is slightly lower than Microsoft's, but still reaches 50 million US dollars.

Regarding the determination of liquidated damages, under the compulsory request of Beichen Technology, HP included the reason "termination of cooperation due to ban" into the scope of breach of contract.

This means that if the United States issues an injunction requiring HP to terminate its cooperation with Beichen Technology, HP will compensate Beichen Technology for liquidated damages of US$50 million!

It was already evening after the two sides exchanged words. After the Ministry of Justice finalized other details, the two sides formally signed a cooperation agreement.

HP was not willing to wait any longer, and immediately held an impromptu press conference in the headquarters building of HP's Shencheng branch. Luo Yang attended on behalf of Beichen Technology.

Under the attention of several major media who arrived at short notice, HP and Beichen Technology jointly announced that the two parties have officially reached an agreement on global strategic cooperation!

"HP and Beichen Technology will jointly promote the Beichen system globally!"

"Beichen system will enter thousands of households!"

It immediately caused a sensation again!

After the news was announced, other computer vendors immediately became anxious.

"Why did Huipu start so quickly!"

Originally, they also planned to cooperate with Beichen Technology, but Huipu took the lead.

Major computer vendors immediately held an emergency meeting, and then immediately sent people to Beichen Technology for negotiations. However, Beichen Technology had already got off work at night and could only wait until the next morning.

Early the next morning, the HP store was packed!

"I want this 6999 desktop computer with Beichen system pre-installed!"

"I want this model of laptop, pre-installed with Beichen system!"

"I was here first, brush it for me!"

The Huipu store, which had been empty before, was now crowded with parents and children. For these ordinary users, buying assembled computers was purely helpless before, otherwise they would still be willing to buy branded machines.

The better compatibility of branded machines and complete after-sales maintenance services make these ordinary users feel more at ease.

At the same time, people from major computer brands who came to negotiate were already having fierce exchanges in the conference room.

Several well-known computer sellers in China, including Lianxiang, Dell, Hongji, Huashuo, and Shenchuan, were all present!

In addition, mobile phone hardware manufacturers such as Warwick, Rice, Opoo, and Vioo, which are involved in notebook computers, also attended the event.

But there are also a few brands that did not come, such as Sansang from Bangzi Country, Jip from Neon Country, etc.

"Mr. Luo, this profit is too small. You only earn this amount by selling one set. Can you increase it to 5%?"

In the conference room, many computer business representatives formed a temporary alliance, trying to force Beichen Technology to make more profits.

Luo Yang glanced at everyone.

"Everyone, the Beichen system follows the route of small profits but quick turnover. It is impossible to make as much profit as the Win system. I believe that you have tested the Beichen system during this period, and its performance is definitely no worse than the Win system!"

"While the performance is close to or even more powerful, the price of the Beichen system is only half that of the Win system. I believe users will be happy to buy computers with the Beichen system pre-installed!"
