Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 579 "578" Zhongguancun's warm welcome, digging up Academician Ni, the young Xiao Lei~
a new day,
At around 9:00, Guan Zu, Xu Zhengyang and Gong Wei arrived at the archway entrance of Zhongguancun.

Xiaodong had been waiting there early, and when he saw Guan Zu, he quickly ran over.

"Mr. Guan..."

"Just call me Brother Zu... Sorry to bother you today."

"No trouble, no trouble..."

Xiaodong brought Guan Zu and the other two into Zhongguancun.

"This is the Sitong Group..."

"This is Founder Group..."

"Also here, there is a company called Kingsoft, it's very powerful..."

"This is the famous Lenovo..."

Guan Zu asked, "Since you know about our VCD, who is the most capable person in Zhongguancun who can help VCD?"

Xiaodong thought for a while: "Fangzheng? Their laser technology can... 3 VCDs, one of which was dismantled at Fangzheng..."

Guan Zu nodded: "Okay, then let's go check out Fang Zheng..."

Guan Zu arrived at the Fangzheng office building and reported his identity.
quickly,

The CEO of Founder came running over to greet him.

"Welcome, Mr. Guan... Didn't you say that Mr. Li Jiayuan would be here today? Why are you here in person?"

"He's coming today?"

"Yes, yes, you don't know?"

"He and I are not on the same path. I'll give him a call..."

Jimmy arrived in Beijing last night and said today he would visit Founder, Lenovo and other companies in Zhongguancun, but he hasn't come yet.

Guan Zu made a phone call and soon Jimmy arrived with his men.

The leaders in Zhongguancun were in a state of panic.

You are a big boss, and you still go on incognito visits?
Many companies in Zhongguancun were quickly convened to welcome Guan Zu's arrival.

At last,
A venue was set up with hundreds of people. Guan Zu and Jimmy were the guests, and a group of business owners and executives were the students.

Banner: "Warmly welcome Mr. Kwan, the richest man in Hong Kong Island!"

Guan Zu talked about the future: computers are getting smaller, mobile phones are getting smaller, and electronic products are being updated faster...

These are all old sayings, and everyone understands them.

Then Jimmy came on stage and talked about cooperation in the electronics industry, sharing resources, working together, and exchanging and learning.

in the crowd,
Xiao Lei followed Kingsoft CEO to ask his boss to attend the class together.

From time to time, he glanced at Guan Zu.
Cricket Road,
"That's the boss of Five Star Group? So young?"

"I heard that he is worth over 100 billion Hong Kong dollars, the richest man in Hong Kong Island, outrageous!"

The boss asked with a smile: "Do you want to replace him?"

Xiao Lei shook his head and laughed, "It should be 'A real man should be like this'!"

Xiao Lei is 24 years old this year. In January 1992, he was invited by his boss Qiu to join Kingsoft Software Company as the sixth employee, responsible for software development. In August last year, he took the lead in establishing Kingsoft Beijing Development Department, which is located in Zhongguancun.

He is too young!
He is in his prime, full of energy and vigor, and of course a little proud.

But after looking at Guan Zu...

Damn it!
He is already a billionaire in his twenties. How can I be proud of this?

Keep a low profile.

……

At noon, the leaders of Zhongguancun held a banquet in the hotel and booked a hall.

drink!

chat!

Guan Zu and Jimmie naturally became the focus of everyone's toasts.

Boss Qiu from Jinshan pulled Xiao Lei over to toast.

"Mr. Guan, I'm a beggar from Jinshan..."

Guan Zu heard this.
Wow, that sounds familiar.

He used Kingsoft Office in his previous life.

"Please boss, hello, hello!"

Guan Zu subconsciously glanced at the person behind Qiu Laoban...

what!
Very cute and new Boss Lei!

A magical voice flashed through my mind: are you OK?

"Wow~~ Incredible, handsome boy, I can tell from the first glance that you are gifted. There is a spiritual light gushing out from your head. You are so young but you have such spiritual energy... You are a business genius that only appears once in a century."

Asking the boss: “???”

Xiao Lei: “???”

Guan Zu: "What's your name?"

Xiao Lei: "My name is Lei*, you can just call me Xiao Lei..."

Guan Zu pushed away and begged the boss,

Asking the boss: “???”

Guan Zu hooked his arm around Xiao Lei's neck and said with a grin, "I'm optimistic about you... If you need any investment when starting a business in the future, you can come to me!"

Xiao Lei: “emmm~~~~”

I want to know what the boss is thinking: Emmm, I am outdone by my employees!
Xiaodong’s inner thoughts: Emmm, I was here first!
Guan Zu said to Gong Wei, "Do you have millet porridge?"

In 2010, Lei Jun and his friends started Xiaomi’s entrepreneurial journey in a small office after drinking a bowl of millet porridge in Zhongguancun.

Sorry, I just like to join in the fun!

Gong Wei: "I'll ask the boss to ask."

Guan Zu: "Give me two bowls!"

quickly,

Gong Wei held two bowls of millet porridge, one for himself and one for Xiao Lei:
"When you set up a company and ask me to invest in it, just name it Xiaomi..."

"Drink this bowl of millet porridge!"

Xiao Lei: “…………”

Very shocked.

Is this the richest man? That's a bit crazy!

Do I have to be a little crazy to become the richest man?
Millet?

Yeah? This name seems to suit me very well.

Drink it all in one gulp.

"Thank you, Mr. Guan!"

Xiao Lei was excited, this was his great opportunity.

He naturally wanted to start a business, but where would the money come from? He naturally needed the support of a big boss.

And Guan Zu is undoubtedly the big boss. The richest man in Hong Kong Island, and still so young.

That’s great!
Guan Zu patted Xiao Lei on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Lei, people need not only marketing but also technology. You need to do both well."

Xiao Lei scratched his head, not understanding.

But remember, this is the investor's preference.

Not long after,
Through several people, Guan Zu "met" one of his targets - Mr. Ni.

Use the hoe to dig!
"Mr. Guan, I have heard of you for a long time."

"Mr. Ni, I have heard of you for a long time..."

Mr. Ni is the most important computer expert in Lenovo. He is the chief engineer of Lenovo Group and a "technical business card" to the outside world.

In 1983, he resolutely resigned from his job in Australia, paying 70 times his salary, and returned to China.

Then in November 84, the former Lenovo company was established and Mr. Ni served as the chief engineer.

In the following period, Boss Ba and Mr. Ni, one the president and the other the chief engineer, worked closely together to make Lenovo grow rapidly. They were praised by the outside world as Lenovo's "Gemini" and became a role model for many companies at that time.

but……

In the previous life, in 2021, several videos of Sima caused an uproar, and the dispute between Ni and Liu became the focus of people's attention.

Mr. Ni, who is over 80 years old, lives alone in Beijing. The house assigned to him by his company is on the 8th floor. He can no longer climb up the stairs, so he has to rent a house on his own. Because a nanny is too expensive, he only hired a part-time worker who provides him with lunch.

Why did this old scientist, who had made great contributions to China's computer industry, end up in such a miserable state?
All this is because of the differences between the 'twin stars'.

Mr. Ni originally took technology as his foundation and wanted to make breakthrough research on "chips" to become Lenovo's technological advantage.

However, Boss Ba believes that breakthroughs in science and technology are too difficult and it would be better to focus on making money through trade.

Mr. Ni’s technical industry and trade.

The trade, industry and skills of the eight bosses.

Finally, Boss Ba’s “focus on money” also angered Mr. Ni, who was a bit idealistic.

Then starting in 1993, huge conflicts broke out between the two sides, and they started arguing at meetings.

At last……

Mr. Ni was dismissed.

No shares, no dividends, nothing, he was left with nothing.

Ruthless.

Then, he was invited to a company to design the "Ark One" chip, and then developed the first generation, with advantages and disadvantages, but the government purchased it. As a result, the boss was also short-sighted and simply stopped researching and only provided it for government procurement to make money. Thus, another chip opportunity was ruined.

Anyway,

Mr. Ni is highly skilled and very religious.

But he has never met a boss who is willing to continue investing money to support his research and development.

Guan Zu said politely, "Mr. Ni, I have always admired your contribution to domestic computers. I didn't expect to meet Mr. Ni here."

Mr. Ni: "Mr. Guan, thank you for your praise."

We exchanged business cards.

Guan Zu didn't know whether he and Boss Eight had any conflicts at this time, so he asked tentatively: "I have always felt that China should have its own chips. I am also planning to invest in a laboratory to focus on chip research and development!"

Mr. Ni was moved: "Mr. Guan also believes that China should have its own chips?"

Guan Zu: "Of course. The most important thing in a computer is the chip. If it is controlled by foreign countries, how can China catch up with the world's cutting-edge technology? If the chip is strangled by others, it is like having someone strangled by the neck."

Mr. Ni slammed the table and said, "That's right! Chips are so important!"

I suddenly felt like I had found a close friend.

Guan Zu shook his head: "It's a pity that talents are hard to come by and it's impossible to find anyone who can take the lead."

Mr. Ni nodded: "There are relatively few technical experts studying this area at present."

Guan Zu: "I wonder if Mr. Ni is interested in joining? I am willing to invest no less than 1 million US dollars every year. If necessary, 5 million US dollars or 10 billion US dollars is fine..."

Mr. Ni: “???”

After reacting, he looked towards Guan Zu.

Oh my god, you are here to poach me.

But now he has no conflicts with Boss Eight, and shook his head: "Forget it, I am quite satisfied with my job at the moment."

Guan Zu smiled and toasted: "That's a pity... But if Mr. Ni changes his mind one day, you can call me. My promise is still valid."

Guan Zu's idea is very simple.
As long as we poach Mr. Ni, we can also poach his technical team.

This is a whole technical team.

Cool!
Of course... most of this technical team has a staff of the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so if you want to poach them, you can only rely on the staff. But it is easy to solve, Guan Zu can completely cooperate with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and this point has been agreed by the higher-ups.

In short, it is better to give yourself a bargain than to give others a bargain.

At least I... cough cough~~~
a new day,
Guan Zu, Xu Zhengyang, and Gong Wei boarded the plane and returned to Hong Kong Island.

At this time, major universities began to spread a piece of news: a patriotic Hong Kong businessman from Hong Kong Island donated a lot of money to several universities, one of which donated 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

Big dog owner!

So some universities quickly contacted people and looked for Guan Zu, hoping that he would visit their school.

result……

Guan Zu has returned to Hong Kong Island.

When people from the universities asked around, they found out that Jimmie was still in the capital, so Jimmie was invited to dinner by a group of university leaders.

Everyone in college is poor nowadays, and I have never seen such a wealthy man.

"Mr. Li, gold coins are coming~~~"

……

……

the other side,
Mr. Ni returned to Lenovo early in the morning.

He tossed and turned last night and couldn't sleep because Guan Zu's words touched his heart.

Finally, he wrote a plan overnight: "Microelectronics Design Center (China Chip)", preparing to recruit talents in the capital, Shanghai, Hong Kong Island and other places to establish a chip center.

This planning proposal was originally scheduled to appear in the second half of 93, but when Guan Zu mentioned it yesterday, he was awakened and started working on the plan overnight.

With panda eyes, he came to the office of Executive Vice President Li.

He spoke passionately about his plan.

then,

Vice President Li directly denied it.

Mr. Ni: “???”

Hit a snag.

In this company, he is used to hearing "yes" and has never heard a "no".

Mr. Ni was naturally unwilling to give in, so he went straight to Boss Eight.

Then, he was rejected again.

Mr. Ni: “???”

No?

You are my partner, don't you know the importance of technology?

Only if you have your own technology can you have the confidence to compete with large international groups!
Mr. Ni was very disappointed and angry about this.

In a fit of rage,
In the afternoon, he regrouped and found Boss Eight again, explaining the necessity of the technology in detail.

Boss Eight said resolutely: "Making chips is technically difficult. We may lose all our money and miss a good opportunity for development. So, it is better to go for trade, industry and technology to support our company first."

They each insisted on their own opinion and argued fiercely.

Finally, Mr. Ni left sadly.

“Why does he only care about money?”

"Not as good as the boss in Hong Kong Island."

Thinking of this,
Mr. Ni couldn't help but take out Guan Zu's business card.

After struggling for a long time, I called Guan Zu.

He had no intention of changing jobs at this time, but instead talked with Guan Zu about the future of chips.

Perhaps only like-minded people can comfort the sadness in my heart.
