Rewrite the Technological Landscape

After the establishment of the West Lake Club, the turmoil in the LCD screen industry began. Samsung took the lead and dropped the price of the 17-inch to 1100 yuan, and the price of the 22-inch to 1999. The price of the 17-inch directly penetrated the domestic market. The cost price of 22 inches has also touched the domestic cost price.

However, after Samsung made the move, other companies still did not follow suit. In fact, Samsung’s move was relatively slow this time. The fundamental reason here is that the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis is getting bigger and bigger. There are active price wars and passive price wars in the price war. The passive price war is affected by the relationship between supply and demand, and the active price war is for competition.

However, Meng Qian launched a price war at the end of 2007 when everyone was least able to understand the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis and was most confused. This made everyone confused whether it was an active price war or a passive price war.

If it is an active price war, then production capacity must be increased, but if the capacity is increased, if the impact of the first-time loan crisis is greater, then it will be all inventory in the end. If it is a passive price war, then the direction of consideration will be completely different. Not only can't increase production capacity, but also have to reduce production.

But except for Meng Qian, no one can be sure what will happen next, and they all suffer from not having a plug-in.

Looking at the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis again, by the end of the year, the pessimism became more and more serious. The international news, especially the economic news, was basically reporting on the subprime mortgage crisis.

"The U.S. Subprime Mortgage Crisis Has a Huge Impact on Global Stock Markets"

"U.S. Subprime Mortgage Crisis Will Affect Global Banks"

"Countries Should Pay Attention to the Possibility of a Global Financial Crisis"

The phrase that the subprime mortgage crisis is controllable seems to be the only one left to say by American politicians, including Buffett, who has been besieged by many media, and began to let go of his mouth, saying that he is currently somewhat worried about the subprime mortgage crisis. However, when asked how much impact the subprime mortgage crisis will have on the U.S. stock market, and whether there will be another circuit breaker like the 1997 financial crisis, Buffett still has some basic confidence in the U.S. stock market, "The U.S. stock market has a very good Basics, as you said, there has only been a circuit breaker in history. I believe that the US stock market will not be so easy to circuit breaker, and investors do not need to panic too much.

For me, I prefer to believe that I will never see the US stock market circuit breaker again in my life. "

The outside world is getting more and more chaotic, but at the end of the year, there are several good news one after another in China.

On December 21, ARJ21-700, Huaxia's first new regional aircraft with completely independent intellectual property rights, rolled off the assembly line at Shanghai Aircraft Manufacturing Plant.

On December 22, China's first localized 300km/h Harmony EMU was completed and rolled off the assembly line at CSR Sifang Locomotive and Rolling Stock Co., Ltd.

On December 26, Nanhai No. 1 was successfully salvaged, and my country's underwater archeology has reached a new height.

The continuous development of China's science and technology has allowed the world to see the strength of China's science and technology, and it has also allowed more young people in China to enter this field.

2007 was a good year for Huaxia. The economy continued to develop at a high speed and the scientific and technological achievements were fruitful.

In Yanjing on New Year's Day in 2008, the most lively "attraction" was probably the Olympic countdown sign outside the National Museum. Crowds flocked to take photos and leave messages in front of the countdown sign to spend New Year's Day together.

At the entrance of Dafeng Group in Hangzhou, there is also an Olympic countdown sign, which was originally intended to have an atmosphere, but it accidentally became a popular "spot" in Hangzhou.

Fortunately, the countdown sign is a little away from the gate, so it will not affect the normal work of the employees too much.

In such a cheerful atmosphere, Dafeng Group convened the first high-level and middle-level management meeting in 2008, but the atmosphere was a bit depressed, "In 2007, the company achieved many goals, which is worth celebrating, but today I What I want to tell you is that this year will be a very difficult year for the company.

First of all, considering the impact of the global economic downturn, all daily expenses of the company have been reduced this year, and all project budgets have been tightened. Everyone has a psychological preparation. "

Everyone nods.

"Next, let me clarify the company's plan for the next two years. I didn't wait until the annual meeting to announce these things, but I will hold the meeting today in advance. I also hope to let everyone understand that we need to race against time this year.

The two-year development strategy we have set is to stick to the three cities, build the three cities, and attack the three cities.

In 2008 and 2009, the three cities we want to stick to are games, instant messaging and software. These are the three strongest cities we have always been, but this year everyone must cheer up, because our old opponents will definitely You’re welcome. Three days ago, Microsoft officially confirmed the acquisition of Blizzard. Fengxin has been fighting hard in the United States for this year’s Olympics for two years, but everyone knows that our market share in the United States has been declining, and Microsoft has taken advantage of cooperation with European companies. Recently, our market share in Europe has also declined. In terms of software development, our commercial software has not made any major breakthroughs for a long time. This is a very dangerous signal. On the other hand, IBM's software development last year was very rapid, and Microsoft has maintained its previous achievements, so I hope everyone realizes that these three cities are not safe now.

The three cities we will build in 2008 and 2009 are communications, artificial intelligence and information security. These are the three cities we have been developing silently. Now I want to tell you that we must hurry up. The 4G standard has already Started the proposal. Last year's information security conference also confirmed that the United States will increase investment in information security technology from this year, and the hardware environment for artificial intelligence development is gradually improving. We will build these three cities faster. To face the upcoming competition in the future.

As for the three cities we will attack in 2008 and 2009, that is the system, LCD screen and graphics card, the siege will be tragic, especially our opponents are so powerful, but time is not waiting for us, we just have to fight hard A tough fight.

The last thing is to build our river, and the cultural industry of our Dafeng Group will truly go to the world from 2008.

I can tell you responsibly that by 2010, the final result will affect the future direction of the company, the country, and even the global technological landscape. The two-year life-and-death battle has begun. "

Meng Qian had to put pressure on his employees. As I said before, although the financial crisis hurt Wall Street in the United States, it helped Silicon Valley instead. In 2008, the total value of American acquisitions in Asia was as high as 100 billion euros. American technology companies, open to the public, data in Asia.

This does not include the capital injection of some venture capital in the United States, and does not include investment in regions other than Asia. Through a financial crisis, American technology companies have greatly enhanced their control over Asia, especially the control over Neon Country and Taiwan Province. On the other hand, The financial crisis ruined Wall Street in the United States. Since 2010, American elites have turned to Silicon Valley one after another, opening the post-Silicon Valley fever era. Silicon Valley companies have been making great strides in stocks since 2010. The profitability of companies such as Microsoft and Apple has surpassed that of Wall Street. An established bank.

So the financial crisis is a blessing and a curse for the United States.

And if Meng Qian can't finalize some things in the next two years, it will be really difficult to wait until the second spring of Silicon Valley arrives in 10 years, coupled with the tough policy of the new boss of the United States against overseas technology companies.
