But Ni Guangnan is different from him.

Liu Chuanzhi sighed softly, his expression suddenly feeling a little depressed.

But soon, he cheered up again.

He said before that Fang Chen looked down on him and Lenovo, but he could like Ni Guangnan. It was not that he and Lenovo were inferior to Ni Guangnan.

To put it bluntly, in terms of scientific research ability, although he is not as good as Ni Guangnan, he is definitely a qualified scientific researcher. Calling himself a scientist is not a big deal.

After all, he has been doing scientific research for more than ten years since he graduated from university and founded Lenovo, and he has contributed to China's scientific research.

But what about business capabilities?

It’s not that he thinks too highly of himself, Ni Guangnan is probably not worthy of carrying his shoes. He can confidently say that if Lenovo is handed over to Ni Guangnan, Lenovo will probably collapse in less than three years.

Of course, some people say that scientists can also start businesses. Look at the chairman of Yida Founder and the inventor of Chinese character laser phototypesetting, Academician Wang Xuan, who is doing well.

But in fact, this can only be said to be survivor bias. One hundred or two hundred scientists come out to start a business, but in fact if they actually start their own company and can succeed, they will only choose one among them.

In the Julong Company next door, Wu Jiangxing was also a scientist and started his own business, and it became very popular. He gathered seven state-owned enterprises to form the Julong Group.

It is precisely for this reason that Julong Group was a serious state-owned enterprise from the beginning. It was not much better than Lenovo, which had just three or five people and seven or eight guns.

Moreover, China's switch market is also very hot. Although Qingtian is the dominant company, Qingtian cannot capture all the market, let alone this is a supermarket with an annual growth rate of more than 50%.

.

As for profits, it is much better than selling computers.

After all, there are still a large number of computer city assembly machines, off-brand computers and foreign brand computers on the market, which have greatly squeezed the profits and market space of Chinese computer companies like Lenovo.

However, these competitors do not exist for switches, and even the existing foreign brands have been driven out of the country by Qingtian.

With such good conditions, it stands to reason that the Dragon Group led by Wu Jiangxing will surely be able to soar into the sky.

But he can conclude that the Dragon Group will not last long.

There is no other reason. Even the lower branches, that is, the seven state-owned enterprises, Wu Jiangxing cannot handle. Not only can they not guarantee that they will work together, on the contrary, these seven branches are competing with each other, lowering each other's prices, and almost all are fighting internally.

It's a dog's brain.

Under such circumstances, no one would believe that Julong Group can develop well.

To put it bluntly, in a few years, Lenovo will surpass Julong Group in switches and sit in the second place in China. I dare not say, but there is still hope for the top three.

Therefore, scientists are scientists, but it is still not possible to run a business.

Furthermore, in terms of objective conditions, a scientist must focus on scientific research for a long time before he can be called a scientist, which means that how to run a business is a completely unfamiliar thing to him and needs to be explored again.

Not to mention, the reason why this kind of scientist starts a business is mainly to promote his scientific research results. In other words, he has to continue to take care of scientific research.

Whether it is scientific research or business, it is extremely difficult to accomplish the same thing. Among people, if you want to do both things well, this possibility is not said to be impossible, but it is very rare.

Not much.

This is why, in terms of contribution, Ni Guangnan is more important to Lenovo, but Lenovo has always been firmly in his hands, and only he can lead Lenovo to climb higher mountains.

So, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't think Ni Guangnan was better than him.

As for not being more important than Lenovo, it is easier to understand. In any case, Lenovo is also the crystallization of the wisdom and efforts of tens of thousands of them, and it also contains all the wisdom and efforts of Ni Guangnan.

Ni Guangnan naturally cannot be more important than Lenovo.

But why did Fang Chen always pursue Ni Guangnan instead of him and Lenovo?

Probably because Fang Chen had what he and Lenovo had, and it was ten times or a hundred times what he and Lenovo had, but what Ni Guangnan had, Fang Chen didn't have.

He just crushed Ni Guangnan in terms of business management, but if compared with Fang Chen, then his business management skills are probably just like the stars competing for the brightness of the bright moon.

As for Lenovo, it pales in comparison to Qingtian. It's ridiculous that Qingtian plucks a hair from his leg and it's heavier than Lenovo.

But Ni Guangnan's ability in scientific research is something Qingtian does not have, or to be more precise, it is what Qingtian needs.

This is why Fang Chen came to see him and even offered to help him.

Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was aimed at Pei Gong, and Liu Chuanzhi laughed to himself.

But something suddenly moved in his heart, and he couldn't help but raise his head and looked at Fang Chen in astonishment.

After a few breaths passed, he couldn't help but asked in disbelief: "Could it be that Qingtian also wants to be a computer?"

He suddenly thought of a question just now, why does Qingtian need Ni Guangnan's scientific research ability?

The answer comes naturally.

Ni Guangnan has worked in the Institute of Computer Science for more than thirty years. He is also the chief engineer of Lenovo, China's number one computer manufacturer, and controls and directs all Lenovo's scientific research projects.

So the reason why Fang Chen poached Ni Guangnan doesn't seem to require too much consideration.

Liu Chuanzhi suddenly felt his heart tightening, and his face turned pale and extremely ugly.

If this is the case, he would rather reach a settlement with Ni Guangnan and keep Ni Guangnan at Lenovo.

He knew very well that with Fang Chen's ability in China and Qingtian's financial resources, let alone the help of Ni Guangnan, once Fang Chen entered the personal computer industry, he would never have a good life at Lenovo, and it would not be surprising if they all died.

.

You know, the biggest opponents Lenovo faces now are foreign computer manufacturers such as HP and Compaq, which account for more than 60% of the Chinese market.

However, there is still tariff protection, and the prices of these foreign computer manufacturers are much higher than Lenovo.

Once the government lowers tariffs and removes market protection, every computer manufacturer in China will have a very difficult life.

And it is said that the higher authorities have already made plans to release some tariff protections next year, including computers, televisions, refrigerators, etc.

This is also the reason why he cut off almost all of Ni Guangnan’s scientific research funding.

He must gather all his strength to fight this battle with foreign manufacturers.

If we lose, Lenovo and even all Chinese computer manufacturers will die.

As soon as the tariffs are lowered, the computer and even home appliance industries will be in jeopardy.

But you must know that there are no tariffs on switches, at least not before, and foreign communication equipment companies have completely occupied the Chinese market.

But even under this situation, Qingtian was able to expel these foreign communication equipment companies and firmly occupy the top spot in China's switches.

It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that Qingtian's combat effectiveness at that time was ten times that of Lenovo.

Now that Qingtian has been promoted to the Fortune Global 500, and its revenue is dozens of times that of Lenovo, its combat effectiveness is probably a hundred times that of Lenovo.

With such a strong combat power, wouldn't it be too easy to kill Lenovo?

If keeping Ni Guangnan in Lenovo is a chronic suicide, giving Ni Guangnan to Qingtian is committing suicide by jumping off a cliff.

Then he would rather choose the former.

Seeing this, Fang Chen smiled slightly and said: "You can say yes, you can say no. The reason why I want to invite Mr. Ni to work at Qingtian is mainly because I want to study CPU chips."

Liu Chuanzhi was suddenly stunned and looked at Fang Chen intently again.

Through Fang Chen's eyes, he was sure that Fang Chen had no intention of lying, and Liu Chuanzhi sighed again.

To be honest, the shock and sighs he has experienced in these few hours have almost exceeded the shock and sighs he experienced in Lenovo for ten years.

This is not because his knowledge and knowledge are too shallow, but because what Fang Chen did was too unexpected.

Making CPU chips was a hot potato that he was afraid of avoiding, but Fang Chen was so eager to get his hands on it.

However, for some reason, he suddenly felt like a rock had fallen to the ground, and he even felt gloating about his misfortune.

The matter of making CPU chips had already been considered by Ni Guangnan when he reported it last year.

He thought about it for two weeks and finally came to the conclusion that making CPU chips in China would be a dead end.

Ni Guangnan can't do it, Lenovo can't do it, and even the whole of China can't do it.

He has been a researcher at the Institute of Computer Science for more than ten years, has been engaged in computer and chip research, and has also founded and managed the largest computer company in China. He feels that he is still qualified to make this conclusion.

There is no way, now China, the overall chip situation is three generations behind others, let alone others, and it needs enterprises but no enterprises, advanced technology but no advanced technology, talents but no talents, equipment but no equipment, no need for anything, it is completely backward.

And this backwardness is not just ordinary backwardness.

More than ten years ago, a scientists' conference was held, one of which was to take stock of China's semiconductor chip production capabilities.

At that time, the combined annual production capacity of all semiconductor chip factories in China was not as much as the monthly production capacity of a large Japanese semiconductor chip company.

This gap is really one in the sky and one on the earth.

However, over the past ten years, the gap between China's chip industry and foreign advanced semiconductor chip factories has not narrowed, but has widened.

The most important thing is that the United States has launched the information highway plan, which means that the computer industry in the United States will make great strides forward, and CPU chips will usher in a period of high investment, high output, and rapid development.

If nothing else, just say that Intel invests three to four billion US dollars in research and development expenses for CPU chips in one year, which is more than China's investment in CPU chips in ten years.

How can you catch up in this kind of situation?

Even if Qingtian and Fang Chen were to do it, it wouldn't work.

At this time, Liu Chuanzhi seemed to have seen that Fang Chen was disgraced because of the CPU chip, disgraced his armor, and fled in embarrassment.

For a time, his mood suddenly became much more comfortable.

Ever since he knew the name "Fang Chen", Fang Chen has always been someone he needs to look up to and look up to. He was even taught a harsh lesson by Fang Chen before.
