Chapter 346 Adding insult to injury Every computer brand on the market has participated in this carnival. Companies such as Lianxiang, Dell, HP, Asus, Acer, IBM, Sony, Toshiba and others have all entered the market to seize the vacant market. The worst thing is that some companies say that once Coco whale dies, all things will come to life, and they can no longer grasp the great market! Their way of competing for the market is simple and direct. They just advertise that they can use genuine Windows system and keep emphasizing that it is a waste of computer if Coco Assistant cannot be used now. The genuine Win system has been upgraded and is definitely more user-friendly than the combination of the pirated Win system and Coco Assistant! What’s funny is that in order to ensure that they can grab the market vacated by Coco to the greatest extent possible, everyone tacitly teamed up to deal with the magic ship together. After eliminating the divine ship, you can compete on your own. I'm not kidding, because this group of people really got together before, not a whole group, at least two or three people, just to organize and say hello in advance. They were afraid that their own people would beat up their own people. Lianxiang is naturally the most active one. It has a clear understanding of its own strength. After all, it is a large domestic enterprise, so doesn’t it have the final say on the space it grabs? The younger brothers had the heart but not the courage to bear the wrath of the divine ship when it came to its senses, so they took the initiative to curry favor with the powerful, and thus this weird and temporary alliance was formed tenuously. Foreign brands didn’t think too much about it. Shenchuan had squeezed their living space, and their sales were getting worse day by day, so they subconsciously wanted to compete.
Under siege from many aspects, the sales volume of the magic ship gradually dropped. There are many factors involved, but the most critical one is the influence of Xiaguo’s brand. There are so many good foreign brands that have been popular for so many years, educating consumers all over the world and allowing them to naturally develop a kind of faith-like worship. That kind of worship will take root deep in the heart and will come out at the slightest change. If Shenchuan had not come up with extremely valuable innovations in the past two years, the worship of the brand might not have been suppressed. However, the rise of the divine ship was too short, and everyone was unsure. Perhaps after the divine ship continues to rise for ten or eight years, people will begin to worship it like a belief. Now that the sacred ship is under siege, it is understandable that some people choose to believe in the big brands of the past. It's not that there is no good news. A considerable number of people chose to continue to believe in the magic ship. If Lianxiang were in this situation, the probability of being abandoned would be even greater. Product quality is the decisive factor. Even if Shenchuan’s Coco cannot be used on the Windows system, apart from the Coco Assistant, the Shenchuan computer itself is also very powerful. Companion's memory and Companion's hard drives are both high-performance products made of topological semimetal semiconductors. Even without the Coco Assistant, the applications of the Win system can still run smoothly. Other brands do not run as smoothly as the Shenchuan computer. As reflected in the market, even though Shenchuan has surpassed many overseas brands of computers in performance, it still has not firmly grasped the entire market. The reason lies in the brand power of the product. Consumers don't necessarily consider performance alone when buying things; brand power is just a way to gild the lily. I felt regretful for not being able to own it in the past, but now that it’s on sale, I can at least own it and satisfy my vanity. It’s just like people buy second-hand luxury goods, but not for the purpose of practicality. But even so, today's Shenchuan has made great progress compared to other domestic brands. Shenchuan has unknowingly built up a good consumer base. Even if its sales volume is declining at present, it is not enough to cause any serious damage. At most, it will just make less money. Wu Jun was unhappy. He had managed the stall in such a state that he would feel uncomfortable even if the boss didn't say anything.
He is the first person responsible for the poor performance of such a good product. It’s not that Wu Jun hasn’t thought about dealing with this kind of thing. He is not the kind of fool who would go to his boss when there is a problem. He is a veteran in this field. First, he conducted an investigation to see what the situation was. The matter was quickly determined to be a targeted Windows system upgrade, which was a very simple matter. But can such things be said openly? Of course not. It is not acceptable for Coco Assistant to privately help customers install pirated win systems. Now that others have a way to upgrade and target them, it can only suffer in silence. However, if the official website cannot say it directly, it does not affect saying it unofficially on other platforms to let everyone know the inside story. Things were a little less than ideal after that. The consumer group understood that this was a targeting of the Windows system, but it was unable to completely win back all users. Even if the customer uninstalls the genuine Win system and uses the pirated Win system again for Coco, it will be authenticated as the genuine Win system again due to automatic background upgrades. Coco Assistant can no longer be used. After several attempts, some users gave up. No one is a computer expert, and not everyone knows how to turn off the automatic upgrade function. Some people have considerable computer knowledge and know how to handle it, but more people are novices who don't understand it. At this point, the truth seems less important. Besides, Microsoft is very generous and is offering a full set of genuine services, which should at least satisfy my past regrets. "Crazy! Really crazy!" Wu Jun couldn't help but complain about these users' strange inner needs. How could people be brainwashed to this extent by foreign brands? Wu Jun had no choice but to lower the price, but when he thought of Lu Shan's business philosophy, he held back. Every time he encountered a big problem, he would lower the price. So how many chances would Shenchuan have to lower the price? After observing for two days, the situation was not optimistic. Negative public opinion was overwhelming. Wu Jun finally couldn't help but contact Lu Shan urgently. He just wanted to ask Lu Shan whether he had any contingency plan, and the result was similar to Wu Jun's guess. If Lu Shan had a plan, he would have given instructions long ago. Lu Shan told Wu Jun to ignore the outside voices and focus on the production and operation of Shenchuan computers. During this period, he should pay special attention to the image of the product itself. There must be no other negative news, whether it is quality issues or financial issues, because there will be countless eyes looking for problems with the magic ship through a magnifying glass. Wu Jun understood what he meant. It is not uncommon to kick someone when he is down. Even if the Shenchuan operates in a standardized manner, any small problem will become a big problem through analysis from different angles. After sending Wu Jun away, Lu Shan also seized the time. Lu Shan has been sleeping very little recently. He works with Turing on compilation and transcoding at the Singularity Lab every day until he leaves the Singularity Lab exhausted. After resting for three or four hours in the real world, I began to guide employees to digest. This went on and on until the employees almost couldn't hold on. Fortunately, Lu Shan's mental strength has been greatly enhanced through the upgrade of the singularity experiment, which is why he can withstand such hard work. Zemeng's employees have really witnessed the strength of their boss during this period. Not only is he smart, young and rich, but his energy is also the best among humans. Which good person can do this for more than ten days? If these employees knew that Lu Shan still had to expend energy in the Singularity Laboratory, they would be amazed to what extent. Anyway, what employees can see is that when the boss arranges work every day at work, he will have new ideas and point out everyone's specific mistakes.
Then...provide solutions. This alone makes him better than most bosses. It’s not like we all have friends who work in other places. According to everyone’s complaints, the bosses basically just curse at people and are completely clueless. Those idiots have money to start a company, but they don’t have money to buy intelligence. If there are any problems, he will point them out and ask employees to solve them quickly. My favorite sayings are: "I don't care what method you use, you must solve the problem for me!" and "I paid you to solve the problem!" According to everyone's complaints, they always want employees with a salary of 3000 yuan to have the ability of a person with a salary of 3 yuan and create value of yuan. All I can say is that capital is indeed evil. Its only focus is on plundering surplus value. If you don’t do it, there are plenty of people who will. Lu Shan is a unique "weirdo" who can also provide solutions for employees to implement, so no one will be confused. Many problems are like this, the people above have no ideas, and the people below are running around in chaos. If there is a result, it is the credit of the people above, and if there is no result, it is because the people below are not strong enough. The progress is very obvious. Basically every day we can see obvious progress in the compilation and transcoding programs, and everyone’s confidence is growing. "Lu Shan, are you okay? Your eyes are red!" Qiao Weiwei came to Zemeng Company at some point. Lu Shan had not been to the headquarters these days, so she had to come here every two or three days to report on her work and sign and approve some work for Lu Shan. Seeing that Lu Shan's originally handsome face had become even thinner, Qiao Weiwei became worried. "It's okay, it's okay, the problem will be solved soon. After it's solved, I will have a good rest for a few days." Lu Shan waved his hand indifferently. "Then take care of yourself." Qiao Weiwei couldn't say much. She looked around and looked at the environment of Zemeng Company. After not coming for a few days, Zemeng has become even more chaotic and smelly. When programmers are working on projects, they eat and live in the company. They sleep when they are tired and work when they wake up. They have no sense of time. At least these people know how to brush their teeth, wash their faces and take a bath. "Xia Qiuyue, I'm saying, please write this down." Qiao Weiwei turned around and called Xia Qiuyue, a student at the Institute of Life Sciences who had become Qiao Weiwei's assistant. "Vice President, you go ahead." "First, contact the nearby bathhouses and hotels to provide personal hygiene cleaning services to get through this period. Second, we will choose a location above this floor and rent it to build a rest area for employees. We will not start heavy renovations until the project is completed. Third, get in touch with nearby restaurants and have meals delivered at regular times and in fixed quantities every day. Fourth, contact the cleaning company. The mess here can easily make people sick. Did you remember what I said? " Xia Qiuyue repeated it quickly and Qiao Weiwei nodded. "By the way, there is one more thing. Keep an eye on President Lu and make sure he gets five hours of sleep every day!" Qiao Weiwei said this softly, and she turned her head away. Xia Qiuyue also heard it and said that she would make sure of it. This last point is purely a personal factor. Qiao Weiwei has heard how Lu Shan works and rests. She is very anxious but has no way to do anything about it directly. She can only see if she can persuade him. Zemeng's employees were enjoying the melon feast. Lu Shan's job position was not specific, so he worked among them, saying that it would make communication easier. So everyone basically heard clearly what Qiao Weiwei said just now. Lu Shan also heard Qiao Weiwei's voice, and touched his nose a little embarrassedly: "I'm not a child, I will be careful." "Okay! Then I'll go back to the headquarters. I'll come and report if there's anything." Qiao Weiwei pretended to be calm. She didn't want to add any more instructions here, but Lu Shan's temper made it impossible for her to shout.
Lu Shan looked at the employees around him who hadn't moved yet and smiled calmly: "What are you all standing there for? Thank you, Mr. Qiao!" "Thank you, Mr. Qiao!" "Thank you, Mr. Qiao!" Ze Meng was instantly delighted. This company was really getting more and more promising. It even had an employee rest area. An hour later, Ma Lijuan appeared in Qiao Weiwei's office at the headquarters. As soon as they met, she immediately hugged Qiao Weiwei and said with a smile: "Sister, you are getting better too!" "What! During working hours..." "Come on! Aren't you doing your own personal things during work hours? You're using the opportunity to seek benefits for your employees to seek benefits for yourself. Hey, why don't you ask someone to check whether I've gotten five hours of sleep?" Qiao Weiwei's face flushed: "Ah! Stop it, I really didn't think much about it! If Lu Shan collapses, the group will be finished!" Ma Lijuan teased, "I stay up late every day to watch dramas. Why don't you worry about me? If I become a cross-dresser, you will have no roommates. Be careful that there are bad guys following you~" "Hate!" As they were talking, there was a knock on the door. "This is the cooperation matter of Ji Yue last month. Mr. Qiao, please take a look at it..." Ma Lijuan's expression changed faster than that of Sichuan Opera. She changed her face in an instant, and Qiao Weiwei was speechless. …… With the boost in morale, Ze Meng worked even faster, and Lu Shan finally developed the compilation and transcoding software with Turing. This software is an internal nuclear weapon and must not be passed on to others. It can transcode more than 90% of the software on the market and automatically adapt to the Zemeng operating system. The development languages of these software include C, C++, Java, and Python, which are already quite powerful. If there are still some places that cannot be automatically identified, manual intervention will be performed for analysis. "Everyone, let's test the code conversion software." Lu Shan suddenly exported the software, and Zemeng's employees were even a little confused. Is it done? Did Mr. Lu secretly work overtime in his dream in the middle of the night? Seeing that Lu Shan's expression didn't seem like he was joking, all the people who were still awake instantly became alert. If this thing passed the test, they would be free! "You guys test it. If you have any questions, please summarize them. I'll lie down for a while." Lu Shan finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep. He had been in the Singularity Laboratory for several days, which was just a moment in the real world. I slept very comfortably. When I woke up, it was dark outside and the whole company was very quiet. Lu Shan thought everyone had left, so he stretched. Ze Meng’s employees immediately rushed over and looked at Lu Shan as if he were a god. "Is there a problem with the software?" Lu Shan was quite surprised. He had already done some preliminary tests, so there shouldn't be any big problems. "No problem at all!" Tao Bo answered excitedly. (End of this chapter)
