The "Hong Kong Computer Fair 2022" organized by the Hong Kong Computer Federation will be held at the Wanchai Convention and Exhibition for four consecutive days starting from Friday (19th).
Some exhibitors believe that the effect of consumer coupons has passed, and they only expect to reach 70% of the sales of the animation festival; some exhibitors adjust the price promotion, and the cheap laptops are as low as 1,399 yuan, and the tablet computers are as low as 999 yuan, and some are available in limited quantities.
More innovation and technology companies have lost tens of millions of yuan every year due to the sharp drop in revenue after the epidemic, so the first exhibition is expected to attract other investors.

The conference announced that there are more than 200 exhibitors this year, and it is expected that this year's sales will remain the same as last year, at HK$330 million, driven by consumer coupons.
Mr. Pang, the sales manager of Wacom, who sells tablet PCs, said that the sales volume of each computer festival is only 70% of that of the animation festival, and he hopes to maintain 70% of the sales this year.
He also pointed out that the effect of consumer coupons this year is not as good as last year, saying that last year's sales in stores doubled after the coupons were distributed.
Exhibitors are worried about the lack of purchasing power of the public
Wu Guohui, the sales director of Pengbo Electronics Co., Ltd., which represents a number of electronic brands, believes that consumer coupons have indeed helped sales, and it is estimated that there is a slight increase of 10 to 20% compared with last year. He also pointed out that since the epidemic has been raging for two and a half years, he is worried about the lack of purchasing power of the public, so he also adjusts the goods to more favorable prices.
Robot company loses tens of millions of yuan for the first time to attract investors
In addition to retailers, there are also robotics companies exhibiting at the venue.
Huang Zhide, director of Science Art Design and Production Co., Ltd., said that this year is the first time to participate in the exhibition, and he hopes to attract investment from institutions such as the government or universities.
He also said that the Cantonese opera veteran Luo Jiaying recently released the new Cantonese opera "Happy Cantonese", in which the robot modeled after Luo Jiaying was rented by his company.
Huang also pointed out that since the outbreak of the epidemic, orders for the production of robots and floats for international theme parks have stagnated. At present, the company is losing tens of millions of yuan every year, and it can only reduce the size of the company by half, barely maintaining the company's operations.
"We've stepped on the tourism industry with half a foot, and we'll endure it first, and see if we can stand it."
