Chiwett Ejiofor and Kiridale are not only Chen Geng's subordinates, but also shareholders who hold Garrett 2000 shares, and are Chen Geng's partners, although Chen Geng has an absolute controlling stake in Garrett 2000, it does not mean that he can disrespect the interests of other shareholders. The meaning of promoting her, but in the face of this kind of "big right and wrong" related to her own interests, she would never think that Chen Geng would give such a small "small favor" and give in like this.

"Mr. Fernandez," Dorothy's expression became serious, "why do you think this computer will sell 100,000 units in the month and 400,000 units in one year after it goes on the market? You know, it's hard to convince us if we don't have enough reasons." ”

After Dorothy's words were finished, Chiwett Ejiofor and Gary Kilidale also looked at Chen Geng with blazing eyes, involving their own interests, it was impossible for them to believe what Chen Geng said.

"Well, it's really difficult," Chen Geng nodded, and didn't rush to deny anything: "Even if we have the best sales channels and the best products in the United States, no one can say for sure whether this product can become a hit and whether it can 'explode' to the extent I said." ”

Dorothy nodded, waiting for Chen Geng to continue, she really wanted to hear why Chen Geng thought this computer could sell so well.

But neither Chiwetel Ejioor nor the Kiridaires expected Chen Geng's answer to be like this: "I have my judgment, but I believe that no matter what arguments I come up with to support my judgment, you can come up with a hundred reasons to refute me, so ......"

Looking at the three people in front of him, Chen Geng said confidently: "I won't say what my basis is, but I know what you're worried about, so we might as well bet on it? Well, I can take care of your interests." ”

“......”

Chiwetel Ejiofor and the Kiridaires were momentarily confused: too lazy to say why?

How else can you explain that?!

But no matter how confused and shocked the three of them were, they were not as shocked as Chen Geng's words: to protect their own interests? !

Until then, no major shareholder of a computer manufacturer had spoken to the others.

Without waiting for the three of them to ask, Chen Geng continued: "Don't you don't believe that this computer can sell 400,000 units? OK, then how many units do you think this computer can sell in the next year?"

How to answer this question?

Although Chen Geng didn't say it too directly, the meaning has been clearly expressed: how many units do you think this computer can sell in the next 12 months, I will use this number to give you the bottom line, but the extra part of the profit is mine.

Can you still play like this?

At this moment, the three of them couldn't say what they wanted to say.

As Chen Geng said, no matter how many reasons Chen Geng came up with to think that this personal computer could become a hit, they could come up with a hundred more reasons than these reasons to refute Chen Geng, and if this continued, it would become a meaningless mouthful.

So Chen Geng directly found another way: you say, you just say how many units you think this personal computer can be sold within 12 months after it goes on the market, no matter whether it can reach this figure or not, I will give you a bottom according to this sales volume and the corresponding profit margin! But on the other hand, if the sales volume does not reach this number, I will give you a bottom line, and ensure your interests, but if the final sales exceed this number, hehe......

The three of them, who were originally seriously skeptical of Chen Geng's judgment, now began to doubt their own judgment: Could this computer really become a super hit? Otherwise, how could Mr. Fernández dare to make a promise?

Even if they muttered in their hearts whether this would be Chen Geng's trickery, they had to consider a possibility: when it came to business vision, Chen Geng would not have been able to shoot the horse by himself, otherwise Mr. Fernandez would have been a billionaire worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and he was now just a millionaire worth millions of dollars - they would not believe it if they said that their business vision was sharper than Chen Geng.

Chiwett Egypt's Ford and Gary Kiridaire's eyes fell on Dorothy in unison:

Among the three, Chiwett Egypt Ford and Gary Kiridale are both technological, Gary Kiridaire is more completely a tech nerd, and when it comes to business vision and judgment, it still depends on Lucy.

Dorocy gritted her teeth, hesitating in her heart.

From her heart, she is actually more inclined to Chen Geng's judgment, this computer is really likely to become the first super hit in the history of personal computer development, compared with other personal computers on the market now, the computer designed by Mr. Fernández is really beautiful, exquisite is like a beautiful porcelain, a delicate work of art, but then again, the explosion can be sold 400,000 units in a year after the launch?

Dorocy subconsciously shook her head in her heart: Impossible, this is too crazy.

But if this computer can't become a super hit, Mr. Fernandez dares to make a promise?

Or is it a plot on his part?

No way!

I can't think about it anymore, Dorcy thinks that if she thinks about it again, her brain may blow up, in this case, it's not bad to just be on the safe side and get a guarantee.

Having made up her mind, Dorocy gritted her teeth: "Sir, I am also very optimistic about this computer, but I think 100,000 units will reach the top." ”

Chen Geng nodded and confirmed with Dorothy: "Do you think that in the year after this computer was launched, the highest sales volume was 100,000 units?"

"Yes. Dorothy gritted her teeth: buy it and leave!

"Chiwet, Gary, what about you, do you see it that way?" Chen Geng nodded, then looked at Chewett Egypt Ford and Gary Kiridaire and confirmed with them.

"I ...... I trust Dolucy's judgment. ”

At the critical moment, Gary Kiridale did not hesitate to stand on his wife's side, and the annual sales of 100,000 yuan is really a lot.

"I ...... I believe ...... too," and when the words came to his lips, Chevat Egypt Ford suddenly changed his position: "Sir, I trust your judgment. ”

"OK," Chen Geng nodded, and then sighed, "Dolucy, Gary, you guys are so unconfident in me. ”

"I ......"

"I ......"

As soon as the Kiridaires wanted to defend themselves, Chen Geng waved his hand: "As a friend and partner, I can't watch you suffer such a big loss...... No matter how many units this computer can sell in the year after it goes on the market, even if it only sells 20,000 or 30,000 units, I will give you a profit of 120,000 units. But correspondingly, for the part of more than 120,000 units, you only take half of the profit that originally belonged to you, how about it?"

As for why the part exceeded 120,000 yuan, Chen Geng also left them half of the profits, in fact, it is very simple: the work still has to be done by the Kiridaire couple? Although they are both doing work, the enthusiasm of doing work supported by profits and doing work with the support of "learning to do good deeds and not taking a penny for themselves" is completely different.

Dorothy opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but finally nodded, "That's fair." ”

Yes, since she enjoys the protection of the bottom, if it exceeds the part of the bottom, she will naturally have to give up a part of the profits, Mr. Fernández only took half of it, and it is already fair that there is no way to be fair, at this moment, she even began to wonder if her judgment of this personal computer product is really very serious, otherwise why didn't Mr. Fernández not only lower the share of the bottom, but also took the initiative to add 20,000 to his husband and wife?

Faintly, Dolucy regretted a little, but she also understood that it was too late to regret at this time, so she had to secretly firm up a thought in her heart: if Mr. Fernández is still correct this time, only Mr. Fernández will be the first to say anything in the future, and whatever he says will be what he says.

"OK, then it's decided," Chen Geng turned his head to look at Dolucy: "Dolucy, you ...... here"

Knowing what Chen Geng meant by what he said, Dolucy nodded heavily and said, "Boss, don't worry, if I can sell more, I can also have more dividends, I know what to do." ”

Although she still seriously doubts that this computer can sell as much as Chen Geng said, but just like he said, even if the total sales exceed 120,000 units, he still has dividends, although a little less, but still has the motivation to struggle, and will never be passive and slack off because of this, and he does not have to work, besides, if this computer can really achieve such impressive results, he not only has real benefits, but also has an honor as the person in charge of the project in terms of personal reputation...... The pros and cons of this, she is very clear.

"OK, since everyone has no opinion, then so be it," Chen Geng stood up: "Next, the time has come for everyone to work hard." ”

........................

It was indeed time to work hard, and in the next few days, the entire Garrett 2000 began to run at full speed, and Dorothy Kiridale began to poach people in a big way according to the personnel list drawn up by Chen Geng, Chiwett Egypt Ford, Gary Kiridale and others, IBM, DEC, Apple...... and so on, well-known and unknown companies in Silicon Valley suddenly made a noise, and no one understood what Garrett 2000 was pumping.

It took less than a week for the entire company to work at high speed with the same goal in mind, and the basic design and shape of the first personal computer of the Garrett 2000, which was named "Lenovo-101" after this conversation, was determined.

Yes, "Lenovo-101", is so urine, when asked why he used "Lenovo" as a sub-brand of his personal computer, Chen Geng replied: "For the new era, rich 'Lenovo' ability is the most important quality. ”

As for why it is 101, this is also very easy to explain, the first "1" is the first generation of "Lenovo", the following "1" is the first product, if it is the second facelift, it is "102", and then it is "103", "104"...... It's clear at a glance, simple and straightforward.

As soon as this explanation came out, Garrett 2000's kind of turtles instantly threw themselves to the ground with the five bodies admired by their boss, and only Chen Geng was holding his stomach and snickering.

When the first model machine was unveiled, everyone involved in the project took a breath of air: a 9-inch monochrome spherical display, with optional spherical displays up to 12 inches......

Hiss!

Pretty!

It's so beautiful!

If it is placed in the living room, it is a high-end household appliance that makes people feel extremely high-end at a glance, and if it is placed in the study, it makes people feel that the owner's taste is extraordinary and knowledgeable.

It's still the same sentence, and the paper feels shallow and good-looking......

The good-looking skin is so good-looking, so pleasing to the eye!

When I first looked at the renderings drawn on paper, I didn't think it was like it, but when I saw the "prototype" for this display, Dorocy felt that this was aimed at the appearance of this exquisite high-end home appliance, and it was really hard to say whether this computer could sell 400,000 units, but it didn't seem to be a big problem to sell hundreds of thousands of units...... But even if it's more than 100,000 units, that's a record for personal computers.

It was also at this time that news came from Jabil, Asahi and Visteon: they were very happy to OEM this product for Garrett 2000, but the order with such a large capacity elasticity was ...... Gotta add money!

Why add money, the reasons given by these three electronic product OEMs seem to be very sufficient: because your production capacity is uncertain, if you determine the production capacity of 100,000 a year, or 200,000, or 300,000, this is easy to say, we can calmly arrange our production capacity, but your production capacity ranges from 100,000 to 400,000, we need to take into account more other factors when arranging, maybe we have to push off other orders for your orders......

In a word, add money!

it!

After receiving this news, Chen Gengdeng was furious: these three electronic foundries are clearly determined to eat themselves!

Dorothy looked ashamed: "Sir, I doubt if they know something and secretly reached an offensive and defensive alliance......"

"It's not your fault," before Lucy finished speaking, Chen Geng waved his hand: "We haven't done hardware before, and it's normal to be calculated." ”

At this moment, he really misses Foxconn a little, although Foxconn is not a good thing.

As for Dolucy, when she heard Chen Geng's words, she was even more ashamed.
