The background information of Lenovo is of great importance, especially its operating status and marketing strategy. Moreover, the marketing information plays a key role in the enterprises activities. Typically, it is obvious that data can be more objective and immediately shows the operating situation which can help us deduce whether the company is making profits or loss. Therefore, the analysis about financial statements of Lenovo MIDH (Mobile Internet Digital Home ) would be beneficial. In addition, the external environment has more complicated impacts on a company’s business. Elements like policy, economic environment, customer and competitors can easily affect the operations and strategies of Lenovo. Talented people play a crucial role in Lenovo’s historical development, and investigation of Lenovo’s talent scheme can obviously confirm it. Last, I believe the research of the sales and customer satisfaction of Lenovo’s mobile phone in Changsha market will help me to find out the problems that Lenovo are facing.
