Liu: Managing Lenovo Computer I'm not as Yuanqing

News of the departure of Yang in the past few days even for Yuanqing to find a better place: Lenovo Mobile chairman, so Lenovo had to come out of the rumor, from the old Yao to Lenovo, even if the board is not satisfied with Yang, Lenovo decision-making also difficult to find more suitable candidates for Yang, even Liu is not, Because today's association is not 2004 years of Lenovo, if Yang really left the Lenovo computer, Lenovo is undoubtedly a disaster.

The person who said that Yang was about to leave said several reasons: the acquisition of IBM PC failure, poor performance, improper employment, the acquisition of adverse, let the old one to analyze the reasons for the establishment?

First of all, the acquisition of IBM failed, although the acquisition of IBM for more than three years, it is now concluded that the acquisition of IBM PC business failed to fashion early, in late 2004, Lenovo acquired the IBM PC at the beginning of the annual turnover of 13 billion U.S. dollars, to 2008 will be more than 17 billion U.S. dollars, cash reserves Lenovo had a hard time thinking about $1.8 billion trillion in cash reserves before 2004, although the global rankings fell to fourth from the third place, with Lenovo acquiring at least one pass at IBM's PC at the moment, after all, the integration of two culturally disparate companies is not an easy task, Lenovo's acquisition of IBM The PC does not fail to acquire Compaq at least than HP.

International Cross-border acquisitions are hard to measure success and failure in a short time, and in 1997 Acer spent 400 million of dollars acquiring the Texas Instruments notebook, which did not drive Acer's growth in the US, and then withdrew from the U.S. market (and now doing well in the United States, Also in recent years, the acquisition can be said to be very failure, but unexpectedly obtained after becoming Acer CEO Lanci, is Lanci led Acer from Europe, now said Lenovo acquisition IBM PC business failure is premature, as a reason to say Yang will leave the reasons is not sufficient.

Poor performance is also the reason for the resignation of Yang, in the face of the global economic crisis in decades, Lenovo performance decline is a natural thing, as to say that the degree of decline in performance than other competitors more serious, but also because of Lenovo's business type decided, because the previous IBM PC has withdrawn from the consumer market, Although Lenovo has restarted after the takeover, it is clearly hard to make a breakthrough in the consumer market for three years, and the business market is clearly more affected by the economic crisis, as it is clear that Lenovo's board will not be unaware.

Some media recently questioned Lenovo's reuse of foreigners, that Lenovo acquired the IBM PC has been reused foreign executives, even Liu June, such as the local elite are excluded, the reuse of foreign executives will inevitably have a impact on the corporate culture, but then again, China really understand the international operation of executives how many? That year Foxconn boss Terry Gou invited just left HP China president position to join TI's Cheng, force invited its join Foxconn, Cheng just promised once leave ti next choice is certainly Foxconn, because already and TI signed, this year after leaving Ti finally agreed to join Foxconn, It can be seen that even if the internationalization of the mainland is far more than the advantages of Taiwan's senior management personnel, not to mention Lenovo, leaving the foreign executives, with even English can not smooth expression of local executives really able to operate good Lenovo? Not to mention the real want to crowd out Liu June out of certainly not yang.

Lenovo bought the PB, and recently abandoned the acquisition of Brazilian computer manufacturer Positivo, Lenovo hopes to expand market share by buying the wrong is difficult to achieve, it should be said that Lenovo and the 2004 Lenovo can not be the same, 2004 Lenovo could acquire the IBM PC business to achieve the snake swallow elephant, Silently completed to the transformation of multinational companies, now Lenovo every move will be under the tight gaze of competitors, the acquisition of PB can be said to be insufficient information preparation, give up the acquisition of Positivo is also because the other side quote too high, Old Yao think Lenovo actually now really do not care about the short term behind Acer ranked fourth, the hardships waiting for opportunity is, has a strong leading edge of China's market, Lenovo can afford.

Each company's development can not be smooth, Lenovo, IBM, Apple is no different, as the Chinese, as Lenovo to give Yang time, it can be said that Yang is Lenovo to the world's only appropriate managers, but also China has a global vision of a few entrepreneurs, his learning ability, Adaptability in the Chinese business community few people can compare, Lenovo if really want to give up Yang Management computer Department, is no doubt the idea of the self.

As an older generation of entrepreneurs, Liu's achievements in China, few people can be out of their right, but to Liu back as Lenovo computer's boss is reluctant to, after all, Liu's vision only at home, English is not to use the realm of fluency, some people take it for granted that Lenovo should learn Huawei, ZTE, Do not employ more foreigners can go to the world, but Lenovo's business model and the telecommunications industry Huawei, ZTE has the essence of the difference, the telecommunications sector as long as a few operators can achieve breakthrough, the computer will face tens of thousands of customers, even business customers, encountered a little setback will want to change Yang, Even if it is not Lenovo's intention, the media fired such news, can only say that the Chinese media is immature, if the real news from Lenovo, it can only show that Lenovo decision-making began to become retarded.

So flattering Yang, not that he has not made mistakes in these years, perhaps Yang should be able to do better these years, but even if Yuanqing made a mistake, even if Lenovo paid tuition for internationalization, Lenovo or should not replace Yuanqing, after all, as a very strong entrepreneur, Yuanqing must also reflect, A spot change will only make the same mistake repeat itself, as the wise man must know.

Back to the beginning of that sentence, Liu said that management Lenovo computer is not as humble as Yang, should be true words. (author, Lao Yao)
