Some analysts believe that the X86 server is the baggage of IBM dumped, the Lenovo Viruzhan approach can not understand. In this respect, Yang in the "Daily economic News" interview, for the first time to acquire IBMX86 server business.
Yang believes that the X86 server is indeed a burden for IBM, in a highly competitive and low-margin market, not IBM's forte. But the server industry is a very big industry, and the future is going to grow bigger.
He told reporters that "when IBM sold the PC business, it lost 200 million or 300 million dollars a year to IBM, but the PC market was still a thriving market, and Lenovo took over 1 billion dollars a year, which is a good example." As long as the industry trend is good, good at operating, acquisition and integration will produce good effects. ”
Yang said that by merging IBM X86 Server business, Lenovo not only became stronger in the Chinese market, but the global market has long been bullish on business revenues. "I think that the mainframe server market will become the sunset industry, and the X86 server market is just sunrise, X86 because of its openness, portable computing power, easy to deploy characteristics, will become more and more youthful." From this perspective, acquisitions have long been beneficial to the development of the group. ”
