Chapter 1469 The Cruel Reality
It is completely different from what outsiders see. In fact, Kingsoft is now in a very embarrassing situation.
Jinshan was founded by Qiu Wangshan in 1988, and it has a history of nearly ten years.
At this time, the young Lei Dajun is about to become the general manager of Kingsoft.
It is no exaggeration to say that a young man will succeed.
Kingsoft has been making office software from the beginning.
It can be regarded as the earliest software development company in China and a technology company in the true sense.
Unlike Lenovo today, it is purely selling dog meat with the title of sheep.
When it comes to Kingsoft's most famous product, it must be inseparable from wps.
Overall, Kingsoft Software's development in recent years has been quite good.
In the future, the Kingsoft Quick Disk, Kingsoft Guard, Kingsoft Anti-Drug and so on under its command will be more famous products.
However, if you talk about Kingsoft's products, you will definitely not be able to avoid WPS.
One disadvantage of wps is that it is developed completely according to Microsoft's system.
It just so happened that Microsoft has updated very quickly during this period.
In fact, Kingsoft had developed the latest WPS model as early as the end of 1996.
However, Microsoft's quick updates made WPS only delayed.
It was not until September 1997 that 97wps was released.
The past year of this is definitely the most difficult year for Kingsoft.
Now Lei Dajun is here to seek help, it must be because there is something wrong with Kingsoft's funds.
Afterwards, Lei Dajun introduced the history and development of Kingsoft to Chen Jianghai.
In these stories by Lei Dajun, Kingsoft was almost praised as the number one software development company in China.
Chen Jianghai was also sighing after hearing this.
Lei Dajun's ability to fool people should be born.
If he didn't know the real development context of Kingsoft Software, he would be fooled by the other party directly.
"Mr. Chen, Kingsoft's development is very good now. If you can invest in us at this time, there will definitely be great returns in the future."
Lei Dajun finally concluded.
Chen Jianghai just smiled slightly at Lei Dajun's words.
If Kingsoft really develops well, he would not come to him for help.
At this stage, Jinshan is controlled by Qiu Wangshan, and the development speed is not particularly ideal.
The reason is that this person has too strong literary atmosphere, too emotional, and has a little perfectionist spirit.
As an investor, such people will definitely be favored by all kinds of entrepreneurs.
However, as a manager of a company, this way of dealing with things will suffer a great loss.
This was extremely profoundly verified in him.
The reason why Kingsoft encounters financial problems at this stage is also very simple, that is, Qiu Wangshan is too serious and wants to pursue the ultimate and perfection.
Originally, the software WPS was designed, developed and tested and was launched and used. As a result, Qiu Wangshan wanted to strive for excellence and upgrade and optimization, so he delayed it for a year.
The reason is very simple. Qiu Wangshan demands a perfect and flawless wps.
In order to achieve a satisfactory version that is enough to defeat all peers and become a benchmark, Qiu Wangshan asked his subordinates to modify more than a dozen versions of the software.
In this case, the company has never made any profits, but its investment in R&D is quite large.
As a result, the entire company will face a situation where it will be ineffective and run out of funds.
Lei Dajun is now asking for help from Chen Jianghai, and he is forced to do so.
Before this, Lei Dajun went to find others and wanted to seek help with his own tongue.
The other party’s conditions are very simple, that is, they need Kingsoft’s shares, and they are the ones that Lions speak out.
This is naturally unacceptable to perfectionists like Qiu Wangshan.
What he hopes is that Kingsoft shares can firmly control themselves and continue to develop according to his ideas.
What he wants to do is not a profitable company, but design and manufacture products as perfect as possible so that more people can recognize Kingsoft.
Just when Lei Dajun could not see hope, his friend Ge Wenming gave him an idea.
Go and try it out with Chen Jianghai, maybe there will be a turning point.
When Lei Dajun heard this, he thought this was indeed a good suggestion.
Chen Jianghai has money and attaches great importance to technological innovation. The most important thing is that he has a strong relationship with national enterprises and is willing to lend a helping hand.
There is no doubt that asking for help from such a person is the best choice for Kingsoft at the moment.
With this idea in mind, Lei Dajun came to find Chen Jianghai directly.
Chen Jianghai did not rush to answer Lei Dajun's question.
"Mr. Lei, do you think Kingsoft's future will be bright?"
Chen Jianghai asked this question.
When Lei Dajun heard Chen Jianghai's question, he was obviously stunned.
However, as smart as him, he quickly realized.
This may be a test for Chen Jianghai.
If his answer was not good enough, Chen Jianghai naturally had reason to refuse his request.
After frowned slightly and pondering for a while, Lei Dajun began his performance.
Lei Dajun is already familiar with such things.
However, Chen Jianghai is facing him. He is not only his idol, but also Kingsoft's only life-saving straw. He still seems extremely cautious.
Thinking back to the time when Kingsoft was developing, Lei Dajun did a lot of homework in order to seek financial assistance.
With Kingsoft's development and his own position changes, it has been a long time since he did this kind of thing.
Now that Chen Jianghai wants to take the postgraduate entrance examination, he doesn't mind making guest appearances in his previous position.
"Mr. Chen, as the number of computers in China increases, the demand for software will continue to rise."
"This is definitely a good development opportunity for Kingsoft."
"You know, there are still several truly powerful software companies in China now, but our Kingsoft is enough to rank in the top few."
"With this kind of strength, Kingsoft's future path will definitely be very eye-catching when cooperating with the current development environment."
As soon as he came up, Lei Dajun summarized Kingsoft's future.
Chen Jianghai also agreed with Lei Dajun's summary very much.
It must be admitted that these software companies have obviously had profound research and understanding of the development of the personal computer market in China in the next few years.
In fact, by the millennium, the number of computers in China will surge.
This part of the computer is basically used for office work, so the requirements for office software will naturally increase significantly.
In this era, an authentic office software costs several hundred yuan.
This is obviously a bit expensive for China's national conditions.
Kingsoft launched 97wps, in this case, there is a good market.
At least in terms of price, this wps is half cheaper than the genuine software.
This is a completely acceptable number for domestic companies.
Of course, what Chen Jianghai recognized is the computer software market.
As for Kingsoft Software, Chen Jianghai does not think its future is very good.
At least the future results tell Chen Jianghai that the development of Kingsoft Software is not as good as Lei Dajun said.
Or what Lei Dajun said just now can only be regarded as Kingsoft Software's wishful thinking.
