Lenovo is an American company? Actually a real Chinese company

Lenovo is the company that has received the most comments from Internet public opinion in the past two years, and it is currently a polarized evaluation. First, the CEO is unwelcome and everyone’s evaluation is very poor, and the other is that the product evaluation is still very good. Yes, whether it is Xiaoxin or the savior.

I think, the vast majority of people are people who have read books, let alone civilized people, in fact, should not use emotions to deal with things, especially listening to others. We still have to be rational and reasonable.

Lenovo currently has two, one is Lenovo Group we traditionally said, and the other is Lenovo Holdings, the parent company of Lenovo Group. From the perspective of the shareholding structure of Legend Holdings, the actual controller is the State Council. This also proves that this is a real state-owned enterprise, and there is no such thing as privatization as stated on the Internet.

Let’s briefly analyze the top five shareholders. The largest shareholder is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the second and fourth shareholders are the employee shareholding platform of Legend Holdings, the third largest shareholder is Oceanwide Group, and the fifth shareholder is It is Liu Chuanzhi himself. It can be seen that the top five shareholders add up to nearly 74.4%, all of which are Chinese shares.

I still remember reading an article before saying that the management of Legend Holdings is controlled by foreigners, so it is an American company. I didn't say who was controlled or controlled by anyone, but simply said that. Anyway, many people still believe it. According to public information, the chairman is Ning Min, before Liu Chuanzhi; the CEO is Li Peng. Including some other board members and executives are all Chinese. It can be said that both the controlling shareholder and the management are Chinese-managed enterprises.

There is also taxation, which has a certain relationship with the place of registration. Anyway, I don’t know why some people think Lenovo is a company registered abroad. We can look at the information of Legend Holdings, which is also registered in Beijing. Therefore, all taxes are paid in China, which is better than some registered in the Cayman Islands.

Look at another well-known Lenovo Group. The registration information of Lenovo Group shows that Yang Yuanqing is an executive. The largest shareholder is Legend Holdings. The actual controller, like Legend Holdings, is also the State Council.

To put it simply, Sureinvest Holdings Limited is a company actually controlled by Yang Yuanqing, Nanming Co., Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Legend Holdings, Union Star Limited is also a company controlled by Lenovo, and Zhongjie Co., Ltd. is also a company actually controlled by Legend Holdings. At least from the current shareholding, Legend Holdings is behind Lenovo Group.

From the perspective of management, Lenovo’s chairman and CEO are both Yang Yuanqing. Someone might say, isn’t the CEO a foreigner? He was fired. At least with the exception of the international and Motorola businesses, the vast majority and top leaders are all Chinese, after all, they are still Chinese-managed companies. It is normal to have foreigners in the international business. Xiaomi and Huawei have.

also has the issue of the registration place. The registration place is also normal in Hong Kong. Because of the policy at the time, it needed to be listed in Hong Kong, so it was registered in Hong Kong, including China Mobile, China Unicom and other operators. And Hong Kong is part of China.

Regarding the headquarters issue, I think this is the most boring one. Lenovo has two headquarters worldwide, one is Lenovo's global administrative headquarters in Beijing, just in Beijing's Lenovo Building, and the second is a headquarters established when it acquired IBM in 2004. But the real headquarters is still the global headquarters in Beijing, which is still established in China.

In summary, whether it is the actual controller, shareholders, management, or taxation, Lenovo is a very rooted OnePlus Chinese company. The so-called "Lenovo is American" is not established. In addition, many people say that they use domestic subsidies to subsidize foreign countries, but more than 70% of Legend Holdings’ revenue is mainly from overseas, and 74% of Lenovo’s revenue comes from overseas. Of course, some people may just pretend to be confused. Right.
