Liu Chuanzhi recently watched the GE, to be China's GE. In 21 groups of GE, there is a group called the Real Estate Finance Group. Liu Chuanzhi wants to be China's GE, smooth into the chapter, but also cover the house to do real estate.
The land is the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the location is in Zhongguancun, a total of 80,000 square meters; money is Hong Kong's shareholders, it is not a problem, rolling investment is 3 billion yuan; people are a batch of buildings and real estate plans when they accumulated early in the early large-scale construction plant Talents, leading characters are Chen Guodong; confidence from Lenovi's incentive mechanism to make this business earlier; planned to be listed in 2 years.
As early as 1993, Liu Chuanzhi was with the real estate big wrist Wantong Fenglun, Pan Shiyi talked about cooperation, unregistered; Lenovo wanted to speculatively real estate in Huizhou, Guangdong, and later, the real estate bubble broke, did not shoot, bite it Your own technology park; in 1999, when the real estate listed company Qiongmin was renamed Zhongguancun, it also held its 3 million shares as the four-way, one of the top ten shareholders.
It may be because of Shi Yuzhu Covers, the three words "real estate" have always been a bad word in the IT world. In 1993, Wang Wenjing, who has done a real estate, will not do it again in 1994, "no dry At the time, I always think that the hill of the people is higher than the hills of themselves, and they ran to the side of it, and found that their original hills were better than those of others, and they were not so easy. "
When the concept of "real estate" is like crossing the mouse, when everyone shouted, Liu Chuanzhi once set Lenovo's business to diversify in the field of information. Now Liu Chuanzhi has led to the information field, and many people will fall into the real estate.
Development is the life of the company, this is the case for listed companies, but in 2001, the development speed of Lenovo has slowed down. At this time, some people miss Ni Guangnan, and miss the exchanges and chips from Ni Guangnan advocated, and some people say you. Huawei now makes more money, if the association is switched ...
If Liu Chuanzhi will reselect once, he will still walk the road, otherwise he is not Liu Chuanzhi. Liu Chuanzhi is a realist, a firm realist. He will never do anything. R & D is the most unsolicited thing. Liu Chuanzhi once asked his R & D department to ensure success rate, his R & D department could not guarantee. It is impossible to follow how much money to earn much money, it has many incidents. Since Lenovo has been invested in research and development, it is now necessary to have a greater development speed now, and Lenovo, of course, to find another way. Nothing is not going out.
GE is also a firm realist, in order to prevent possible business decline, it adheres to diversification, diversification can guarantee that it remains growing in the premise of drasting in the outside environment. Take the "9.11" incident as an example, the GE aircraft engine business is hit hard, but at the same time, its medical system and financial services can make up for losses.
GE This anti-risk ability is very good in the appetite of Liu. Before Lenovo gigably successfully successfully succeeded, its main business did not especially prominent, and Lenovo had tried in many ways. In 2001, Liu Chuanzhi handed the position of the President of Lenovo to Yang Yuanqing. In fact, the PC business in Yang Yuanqing was given to Yang Yuanqing, and Liu Chuanzhi did not leave. Risk investment is the most important thing in Liu Chuanzhi's current effort. The current focus is to explore a group of people who understand venture capital, and then take $ 100 million in the next 2 to 3 years to conduct venture capital. Liu Chuanzhi said that money is not a problem, Lenovo has cast $ 20 million in 9 projects, and 200 million US dollars will be administered in 2002.
Real estate is a symbol of the Lenovo further diversified after Liu Chuanzhi Risk Investment. Of course, the government did not want to see Zhongguancun speculated real estate. Liu Qi, may Liu Qi, Beijing, said that he is most reluctant to see the real estate in Zhongguancun. He believes that this famous brand in Zhongguancun, if it is invested real estate, it can't attract talents, and it is broken the development zone. Special property and real estate may not be a matter, but it is a matter to make money. Lenovo as a company can't make money do not earn. Liu Chuanzhi has always been very conservative about the Internet, but this does not hinder him in 2000.
The internet concept has a $ 2.8 billion in Hong Kong stock market. Liu Chuanzhi may not be an internet hero, but he must be a hero of the Internet. Like real estate, there are three elements of real estate success: the first is the location, the second is the location, the third or the location. The Chinese Academy of Sciences occupies the golden area of Zhongguancun, and Lenovo can take this place to win this place. In addition, there is enough liquid funds in Lenovo to turn around, and will not have a tragedy of the giant building; Lenovo is also poor. Why don't you do this? Isn't companies made money?
Besides, the industry is not shameful, as long as the Chinese economy continues to be strong, it is the smallest investment. In 2001, the real estate industry contributed 25 "Forbes China's Rich 100", it is 2.5 times that of IT contribution. China's real estate has already spent the original accumulation stage of the garage white and entered the development period of industrialization.
The big Pan Shiyi has not been optimistic about Liu Chuan Zhijin real estate, he said, there is an obedience. Anyway, and the competition of the opponents like Pan Shiyi, the world giants such as IBM, Microsoft like this world giant meat.
Liu Chuanzhi covers a realistic action of a realist. Liu Chuanzhi covers the house, don't use GE, the cover is fine, isn't it to make money? (Author is the editor of this magazine, liuren @ liuren.com)
