    In 04-05 years, IBM carried out a strategic transformation, from the perspective of hardware science and technology to provide consulting and acquisition of corporate restructuring services, in the process, there are two major moves, one is its hard disk manufacturing technology sold to Hitachi, and Lenovo with $600 million in cash and $600 million Lenovo ** acquisition of IBM's global PC business, including desktop business and notebook business.

    Since then, IBM's ThinkCenter desktop computers and ThinkPad laptops have been assigned to Lenovo Group, but because it is a strategic cooperation with IBM, IBM's original PC department system will not change much, so it will not have any impact on product lines such as ThinkCenter and ThinkPad.

    Therefore, for consumers, it can be said that the soup is not changed.

    For Lenovo, it may have opened a window to the world and could dance with the world's giants in the global PC market. For IBM, selling a division that sold $11.5 billion in 2003 but was still losing money allowed it to travel lightly in more profitable areas.

    From many considerations, famous foreign IT companies are unable to take over the hydrangea thrown by IBM for a while. There is no way, IBM can only focus on some smaller, less well-known companies. In this way, the company will be the ideal buyer and will pay a more advantageous **.

    As a result, IBM has its eye on Foxconn (the Hon Hai Group behind it) and Lenovo.

    If it is just to sell the production department, Hon Hai Foxconn will naturally not be able to ask for it. But the rest of IBM's remaining departments must be difficult to shoot with good **, after all, the channel, the market depends on people. There is too much mobility of people.

    The people in IBM's PC division are probably motivated by their own interests, so they will try their best to block the acquisition. Foxconn's acquisition of IBM is also an impossible task. Then it seems that only Lenovo is the natural candidate.

    See what Mr. Stephen Ward, CEO of New Lenovo, has to say after the acquisition of IBM's PC business.

    He said: Lenovo and IBM's PC cooperation is because IBM, IBM is doing very well in the market of large enterprises in the world, and Lenovo has done very well in the business of small enterprises, and has also made great achievements in the consumer market, we combine the advantages of IBM and Lenovo, thinking that this is to be able to get a very strong combination, at the same time, we are very impressed by Lenovo's innovative spirit, we see that Lenovo has a great commitment to customers, This is something that IBM appreciates very much.
