Original title: Lenovo votes against pre installed domestic system? Response: opponents deliberately discredit
Sihai science and technology news on the afternoon of May 21, according to media reports today, a central purchasing center routinely solicited suggestions from PC suppliers on computer product procurement. On the issue of supporting the development of domestic operating system, Lenovo expressed its opposition and cast a negative vote, resulting in a 4:3 vote, and the domestic system 'lost'. In this regard, Lenovo Group told Sina technology that this matter was deliberately discredited by competitors and will issue a statement later.
Media reports said that on the afternoon of May 16, a central purchasing center routinely asked PC suppliers for advice on computer product procurement. On the issue of supporting the development of domestic operating system, PC suppliers have great differences. Through voting, seven manufacturers present expressed their opinions on the pre installed domestic operating system. Voting begins with a show of hands by the opposing firm. Four companies raised their hands: Lenovo, HP, Acer and ASUS. Although the other three manufacturers Tongfang, Haier and Dell support the pre installation of domestic operating systems, they are unable to reverse the situation because more than half of the votes are against it.
According to the media, representatives of the participating manufacturers said that the consultation on the "pre installed domestic operating system" of the seven major manufacturers was only a survey of the manufacturers. After the investigation, although the majority of the people are now against it, the state organs can not make a decision on whether to pre install it. They must report the results to the higher authorities for approval before they can implement it.
In response to the incident, the relevant person in charge of Lenovo Group said to sina science and technology that the incident was a rumor and was deliberately discredited by competitors. At present, they are communicating with the central authorities and will issue a clarification statement later.
