Zhao Xianliang rarely used a joking tone and said to Li Mu: "If you smash the price of home computers, I'm afraid the entire industry will hate you, right?"
Li Mu nodded and smiled calmly: "Hate it if you hate it. In my eyes, these days, it is more about some hardware manufacturers that are hindering the development of society. Computer manufacturers want to maintain high profits and maintain their industry status. At the bottom of my heart, I don’t necessarily really want computers to become too popular, because once they become popular, it means a reduction in profit margins. If you want to maintain the previous income, you may have to invest more manpower and material resources, especially once the profits are made public, you may have lost the profits made in the previous year. The profit earned from 100,000 units will only be equaled by building one million units in the future. Moreover, once computers become popular and the industry becomes popular, many new competitors will emerge to encroach on their market space. , it will be even more disadvantageous for them.”
After saying that, Li Mu paused and said: "On the other hand, if the popularity of computers slows down and profit margins become blurred, the current Harmony hardware manufacturers can tacitly enjoy the nourishment of high profit margins. It is precisely because of this This current situation makes computers still an unattainable luxury for most Chinese families. Under this situation, it is difficult to achieve large-scale acceleration in the popularization of home computers and the Internet. If their profits are not smashed, , I am afraid that the popularization of home computers will depend on the multiple effects of inflation, currency depreciation and an increase in per capita income. This is really sad for the Chinese Internet industry."
Zhao Xianliang frowned. This was the first time he heard this theory, but what Li Mu said made sense. If no one came to smash the prices of the computer manufacturing industry, companies in this industry would remain silent and grow louder. With a financial mentality, if the industry remains opaque and you can earn 100 million by manufacturing 100,000 units a year, once the industry is transparent, it is difficult to guarantee earning 100 million by manufacturing 1 million units a year. In this case, everyone will be willing to produce every year 100,000 units, easily earn 100 million.
If you want to trigger a change in an enterprise or even an industry, you must give it a huge impact, completely disrupt its previously fixed model, and then rebuild the order. Li Mu is young and can use his skills to this extent, regardless of his horizons. , mind and courage are by no means simple.
While sighing, Zhao Xianliang couldn't help but ask Li Mu: "I'm curious, why are you so passionate about the Internet? You even go to such lengths to offend the entire computer manufacturing industry to promote the development of the Internet?"
Li Mu explained lightly: "In my eyes, it is a complete idiot's dream for Chinese computer manufacturers to one day lead the development of the industry. Most of the core computer hardware must rely on the supply of overseas monopoly giants, whether it is CPU Whether it’s memory particles or motherboards, as long as computers are involved in the field of chips, they basically have to use overseas products and solutions. It’s impossible to catch up at the core level. No matter how many complete machines are built, how much voice and profit can they have? space?"
"That's true." Zhao Xianliang nodded in agreement. Although he didn't know much about the computer industry, it was the same in any industry. Once the core level was in the hands of others, it would be impossible to lead the development of the industry.
At this time, Li Mu added: "But the Internet is different. The Internet industry is the most imaginative industry in the world and the most brilliant crystallization of wisdom in the world. Its development is an art, which integrates software, The super art of hardware, products, development, operation, promotion, human nature, psychology, needs, and aesthetics, and precisely because it is an art, it is possible to break tradition and the monopoly of those with inherent advantages, and it is easier to create miracles."
At this point, Li Mu's tone suddenly became sharp, and he said categorically: "If smashing China's computer manufacturing companies can give wings to China's Internet development, I will definitely do it, and I will do it without hesitation!"
Li Mu still had something to say. He felt that once China's Internet developed rapidly, and with the guidance and support of himself as a reborn person, China's Internet industry might have the opportunity to lead a craze around the world.
Intel's advantage in CPUs is that no company will be able to catch up in 30 to 50 years. But even so, it only covers most computers. In the mobile terminal market of mobile phones and tablets, its share is as low as It is almost negligible. This is the inherent development barrier of hardware.
However, Zuckerberg and Facebook not only cover most computers, but also cover billions of mobile Internet terminals. These mobile devices may use Apple, MediaTek or Qualcomm processors, which are as powerful as Intel. Areas that no other company can touch can still be conquered by Facebook, and Facebook's market value is more than double that of Intel. This is the magic and charm of the Internet industry.
Therefore, for this goal, let alone smashing the profits of computer manufacturers, even if he was asked to smash the jobs of computer manufacturers, force them to go to the streets to beg for food, and force them to cut themselves with knives, Li Mu would not do it at all. hesitate!
At this time, Zhao Xianliang couldn't help but secretly give Li Mu a thumbs up and praised: "Listen to what you said, if the policy of 'computers entering the city' really starts to be implemented, and you use Shenzhou to smash through the profits of home computers, When the time comes, consumers will not only be able to enjoy more transparent prices when purchasing computers, but will also receive subsidies from the government. As a result, the number of computers in the country will definitely skyrocket. This idea is indeed a good one. Not only do you think big, but you also do big things! "
Li Mu's eyes lit up! It was really rare to hear Zhao Xianliang praise him, and Li Mu suddenly felt that he seemed to have found a way to communicate with him.
Zhao Xianliang is a businessman through and through, and he is a businessman who started from scratch, worked hard, and got to where he is today step by step. If you want such a person to convince you, it is useless to be blindly polite and humble. He has the most indispensable people around him. This is this kind of person, and this kind of people without exception are all people who are at least one level below him, such as his subordinates, or other people who need his help and depend on him for survival.
Because of this, the more you behave like this, the more naturally he will feel that he is a head above you. On the contrary, if you want to convince him, you must make him realize that he is very awesome, not only more awesome than he thinks, but even much more awesome than himself.
So, Li Mu smiled calmly and said, "Uncle, what I think and what I want to do is much bigger than what I just said. What I just said is actually only part of my entire plan."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xianliang was really shocked.
In order to promote the development of the Internet, Li Mu not only used himself as an example in a CCTV interview to promote the magic of the Internet and rectify the name of the Internet, but also pushed the government to launch a national subsidy policy of "computers into cities", and then used Shenzhou and Taobao to , Taobao Logistics’ special business model to further lower the terminal selling price of computers. He has done so much, but it is only part of his overall plan? What other plans does this guy have
Zhao Xianliang was surprised, but also itchy in his heart. He wanted to know, and even couldn't wait to know, what kind of planning and preparation Li Mu had made for this plan.
"Li Mu, you might as well tell us what other plans you have."
Li Mu smiled calmly: "What I said before is to promote the popularization of home computers, but after all, only a part of the people who can afford computers are what to do with the rest?"
Zhao Xianliang was also thinking, yes, what to do with the rest? There are many families who just don’t have money, and they may not be able to afford a computer even if it’s 50% off. What should we do with these people
So, under Zhao Xianliang's strong curiosity, Li Mu explained his entire plan for the chain of Internet cafes in detail.
The concept of the chain Internet cafe plan is far greater than what the words "chain Internet cafe" can literally represent. It is not only to facilitate more people to access the Internet, Li Mu's chain Internet cafe plan has almost the same meaning as all his current projects. Deep bondage, this is the most awesome part.
After Zhao Xianliang heard what Li Mu said, his whole outlook was almost subverted. It was unimaginable that a young man could make such a huge plan and structure for the development of an industry, and be able to release it from paper. Entering the practical stage directly, this is really awesome, even Zhao Xianliang himself is particularly impressed.
Even I, and even those entrepreneurs with the same or even higher net worth than myself, cannot reach the level of Li Mu.
There are many entrepreneurs in China who have made their fortune in real estate, but no real estate entrepreneur can take the professional ethics of "making more people affordable to live in buildings" and "let more people live in good houses" in their hearts. It is about how to obtain higher profits by raising housing prices, and that is all. It is impossible to consider how to make the real estate industry benefit the public and society.
It is in this industry atmosphere that real estate developers are building more and more houses, and more and more people cannot afford to buy houses. Compared with them, Li Mu’s business structure is not only higher by countless ranks , even their sense of social responsibility has been far left behind.
There are many people who are determined to change the world, change society, and change the industry, but very few people can succeed. And a twenty-year-old young man can have such a mind, such thoughts, such vision and strategy, and He can also promote it step by step through his own means. It can really be regarded as unprecedented and unprecedented!
At this moment, Zhao Xianliang's view of Li Mu has undergone earth-shaking changes, and his heart is full of admiration.
Zhao Xianliang smacked his lips when he heard this. The more he listened to Li Mu talk like this, the more he felt that Li Mu was really not a simple guy.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xianliang thought to himself: Damn, it's really not that simple. This guy is so awesome! I just want to write one word to him now, a big word "submit"!
