In the recent period, the central government organs have been carrying out large-scale computer procurement activities, especially the results of the winning bid in November, which have aroused widespread discussion on the Internet.
After all, at this bidding meeting, Huawei let the small enterprises that were only established for two years "squeeze" out of the market, but in the face of this scene, the central state organ computer procurement is also urgently issued a correction advertisement, not only to revoke the bidding qualifications, but also to let Huawei replace, but what is more surprising is that the American brand HP was successfully shortlisted.
So, what's going on here? Why did an American brand be shortlisted for such an important project?
Huawei was eliminated
In this procurement activity, companies such as Lenovo, Huawei, and Inspur have signed up to participate, after all, for such activities, many companies want to "get a piece of the pie", and in the past procurement activities, domestic brands are naturally affirmed by the state, especially Huawei, which is naturally needless to say.
Just when everyone was curious about how many orders Huawei could win in this event, a "dramatic" scene happened, that is, in this bidding result, Huawei unexpectedly lost, and the "replacement" of him was a small business that had just been established for two years.
And according to the data results, the amount of An Lingxin in this bidding was as high as 15.22 million yuan, and in the face of such a result, many netizens did not believe it, and they were even more curious that there must have been a mistake.
However, just when netizens were discussing this, the central state organ issued a correction announcement, that is, the original company with the largest winning bid amount was changed to Huawei, in the face of such a result, netizens were relieved, after all, Huawei is the core enterprise in the mainland, and many Chinese people have used Huawei series brands.
However, after the end of this "farce", some netizens began to pay attention to the brands of other companies, after all, for domestic brands, some people support Huawei, some people support Lenovo, etc., so in the face of such a result, it is natural to pay attention to the proportion of some brands they use.
After all, for the Lenovo brand, whether it is a central authority or a state-owned enterprise and other unit procurement projects, Lenovo can occupy the market in it, and the amount of winning the bid is also very considerable.
Therefore, in this procurement, Lenovo can collect 10.73 million yuan, which is also a very "habitual" result, after all, according to the previous results, whether it is the government or state-owned enterprises, etc., they are very recognized for Lenovo's service capabilities and safety level.
Especially in this procurement, Lenovo has been successfully shortlisted for both desktop computers and portable computers, and even A4 black and white printers have won the bid, and in the second quarter of 2024, according to the latest data on the global PC market released by IDC, Lenovo will maintain the first place with a market share of 22.7%.
American brand HP was shortlisted
Just when netizens were complacent about the domestic brand, some netizens found that the American brand HP was successfully shortlisted, and netizens were very surprised in the face of such a scene, after all, these computer equipment can be said to be prepared by relevant national units, how can they use American brands? Is this really safe?
And in the amount of this winning bid, HP collected 11.09 million yuan, which also made netizens very puzzled, but in fact, for this bidding meeting, the main focus is on the principles of fairness, justice, openness, etc., and it cannot be deprived of the right to be shortlisted because HP is an American brand.
You know, HP can be described as a well-known old brand, whether in the Chinese market or the international market, it has a good reputation, and whether it is in performance or user experience and other functions, it has unanimous praise, and after it enters the Chinese market, it will unanimously help China's development.
After all, for business, it is about interests, after all, the Chinese market can bring them huge profits, so they are also doing their best to serve China, especially they have always adhered to the concept of "in China, for China", so HP can be successfully shortlisted, completely relying on its own strength.
Moreover, for the central state agencies in the procurement, they also consider the multi-element supply demand, and in terms of provision, HP not only has Kirin, UnionTech and other systems, but also provides three, five, six years of original warranty service prices.
Of course, these are still secondary, especially the computers provided by HP this time, they are all Win10 Shenzhou Netinfo version system, which is also a system jointly developed by our Shenzhou Netinfo and Microsoft, and it is also specially provided for state agencies, which can also ensure the country's network security.
The meaning of cooperation
Of course, in addition to cost-effective, such a choice can also achieve resource sharing and complementary advantages, after all, if it is a unilateral use of domestic units, it is easy for them not to feel any "pressure", thereby slowing down the progress of innovation, so that they also realize that the "crisis" is everywhere.
And although the domestic computer has made significant progress in technology, there is still a certain gap compared with some foreign advanced levels, so through cooperation, more advanced technology and products can also be introduced, so as to further improve the overall level of domestic computer products.
In addition to the fierce competition in the market, if the price will naturally decline, after all, whether it is a country or an individual, money is not "blowing" by the wind, so when buying or selecting products, it will also tend to be cost-effective to choose.
In particular, there may be potential security risks in the products of foreign enterprises, but the central state organs must have made a decision after careful inspection, after all, they can not relax at all about national information security, and the mainland has also cooperated with HP for many years, both word of mouth and security are very reliable.
Therefore, this way can not only maximize benefits, but also promote the development of domestic and foreign enterprises, especially for Chinese enterprises, this is also an opportunity for progress and learning, and only such a healthy competitive environment can make the entire industry continue to progress.
