Just one day later, Xu Keden, a lecturer at Jiaotong University, handed over the contract to Fang Zhuo with his name carefully signed.
In other words, the M1 project has a person in charge.
However, he looked strangely as Fang Zhuo handed the two contracts to Yu Hong, who put away the contracts without any intention of stamping them.
“Well, do you want to give me a copy of the contract?” Xu Corden said euphemistically.
“Oh, Teacher Xu, our company has not been registered yet, and we will give you the contract before the end of the month.” Fang Zhuo said very calmly.
Xu Keden: "...So, Yike is just a company you mentioned casually?"
"No, our registered name will be this, don't worry." Fang Zhuo opened the trunk of the Mercedes-Benz, took out yesterday's wallet and handed it to Xu Keden, "Here is 120,000, Teacher Xu can count it
, I’ll give it to you today, just give me a receipt.”
Xu Keden swallowed and took the money bag: "No, I believe Mr. Fang. After all, the registration network is an advanced unit in Lin'an."
Fang Zhuo laughed: "No, you should be a villain first and then a gentleman. Besides, this kind of thing is not considered a villain. Let's be more pragmatic."
He reached out and took back the money bag and handed it to Yu Hong: "Xiao Yu, please count some money in front of Teacher Xu."
Yu Hong was reluctant to do it, but he still took it and started counting the money.
Xu Keden felt inexplicably embarrassed. He glanced twice and returned to the topic: "Mr. Fang, I disassembled the player yesterday. The technical difficulty is not high, but if you want to make a player that is the best in the northern hemisphere, as you said,
For the player, I’m afraid I have to try components from many manufacturers.”
"Well, you said, I'll buy it." Fang Zhuo took out his notebook from the trunk, with a serious look on his face, "What are they? I'll contact you."
Xu Corden stayed up almost midnight yesterday, and said in deep thought: "The Toshiba 1.8-inch hard drive you mentioned yesterday, let's get 50 of them first. Then, there is a key DAC decoding chip. There are many choices for this, like Wolfson, like
Cirrus…”
“Wait, wait, Teacher Xu, please slow down, what company?” Fang Zhuo shouted to stop.
Xu Keden looked at the young boss's confusion and sighed: "Forget it, I'll contact you. Anyway, I'll ask you for reimbursement in the end."
Fang Zhuo simply put away his notebook: "Okay."
.
Yu Hong next to her is still counting money.
Xu Keden couldn't help but glance at Qian and then looked away, feeling that it would be bad not to say anything.
He coughed and said, "Does Mr. Fang know what a DAC decoding chip is?"
“I don’t know.” Fang Zhuo said sincerely.
Xu Keden was already a little resistant and introduced: "To put it simply, it is a chip that converts digital audio signals into analog audio signals. It is a bit like the core engine of a car, which determines the basic quality of the player."
“Then if we just use the best, can we get the best effect?” Fang Zhuo asked.
"No, the chip specifications cannot completely determine the sound quality of the player. It also depends on the surrounding circuit design. This design will cause interference to the DAC." Xu Keden turned to look at the boss, "What I did at Xiaobawang is somewhat similar to this.
Regarding the distance, I asked a colleague last night and he said that some foreign manufacturers will provide supporting secondary designs, which is a factor that needs to be considered."
Fang Zhuo thought about it. He didn’t know which manufacturer made the popular Ipod all over the world. It’s a pity that he didn’t pay attention to it back then, otherwise he wouldn’t be the only one listening to it now.
"Furthermore, I also asked, and the two players you gave me yesterday are indeed relatively excellent products in the industry. I think I can first contact the corresponding manufacturer based on the internal components of the Jukebox, and then see which components have the
Better technological breakthroughs." Xu Keden spoke with dark circles under his eyes, "Today's technology is developing very fast. If Jukebox knows about Toshiba's microhard drive, it will definitely adopt their technology."
“Okay, how long will it take to make the prototype?” Fang Zhuo asked.
Xu Keden thought for a while: "The first-generation prototype should be built within two months, but there will definitely be more shortcomings. He also took Toshiba's hard drive as an example. How to solve the problem of shock resistance and drop resistance when putting its 1.8-inch hard drive into the player?
, this is a technical problem.”
He continued: "I haven't contacted Toshiba yet. You can ask if there is similar technology there in the next two days."
“Well, come on.” Fang Zhuo felt that he should express his position.
Xu Keden choked for a moment, and said after a few seconds: "I can't do this project alone, otherwise the progress will be very slow. The hardware is convenient and more professional talents are needed."
"Recruitment." Fang Zhuo said decisively, "Teacher Xu, don't be too busy resigning at Jiaotong University. You can look for talents who can bring you closer to the team. Whether they are students or teachers, our salary during the project cycle will be very competitive.
.”
“Is it also 120,000?” Xu Keden asked.
Fang Zhuo said "uh": "That's the number from the person in charge. You can quote them a competitive price in the industry."
Xu Keden nodded slowly, having a rough idea.
“Teacher Xu, I’ve ordered, you order more.” Yu Hong finally finished counting the money, put it in her bag and handed it to Xu Keden.
“Director Yu ordered it in front of me, what else should I order?” Xu Keden firmly accepted the money bag with some embarrassment, “Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your trust, I will not let it down.”
“Well, I am very optimistic about the potential of music players, just like the Guahao.com in my hand. It is also a breakthrough in the next field of the Internet era.” Fang Zhuo said.
Keden Xu is relatively honest. From yesterday to today, although he has decided to take on this project, he is really not optimistic about it.
how to say.
Sony’s Walkman is so prestigious.
Just like the two machines we took back yesterday, weren't they also made? But the response was only average.
Just trying to combine the advantages of the two machines can benchmark Walkman, and are you still claiming to usher in a new era with this?
Xu Keden admired such naive determination, but he couldn't really agree with it.
Fortunately, when the young boss approached me, he had already stated in advance that he just wanted products that met his requirements. Regardless of whether the product sold well or not, it had nothing to do with him as a product manager for half a year.
Xu Keden has a vague guess about this. Fang Zhuo, who can make a registration website, is not like a passionate fool. Maybe he wants to use this as a reason to find venture capital for investment?
“Oh, yes, I have learned a lot about it. There are also some domestic suppliers, such as power supplies. There is New Energy Technology ATL, which has good technology and specializes in polymer lithium batteries. They bought the patent from Bell Labs.”
Xu Keden didn’t want to say anything against his will, so he gave out the information he had learned.
“Yes, as long as it meets the requirements of our product, it can be used.” Fang Zhuo was quite happy.
“Well, I won’t blindly choose manufacturers. I’ll give them all a try and then make two or three versions and we’ll discuss it again.” Xu Keden planned.
Fang Zhuo felt that the topic was almost over, shook Xu Keden's hand, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm looking forward to seeing the prototype. Anyway, you can't buy anything here. I'll find someone to buy it. If there's anything wrong,
I’ll take someone to chat with you.”
He once again came up with his slogan: "Let's build the best music player in the northern hemisphere."
Xu Corden grinned, shook hands vigorously, turned and left.
“Xiao Yu, what do you think of Teacher Xu?” Fang Zhuo looked at the product manager’s back and asked Director Xiao Yu.
“It’s very true.” Yu Hong noticed that Xu Corden occasionally looked at money.
Fang Zhuo nodded: "Although I didn't quite understand what he said to me today, seeing that he understood it so efficiently, he should be very responsible. After all, he used to make game consoles."
“Isn’t Little Overlord a learning machine?” Yu Hong was slightly surprised.
“All.” Fang Zhuo took a deep breath and looked at the sky in the distance, knowing that there was a group of people far away who must also be making this gadget.
It’s just that I don’t know when it will be launched.
When he thought about the possibility of facing off against a generational classic, he felt both a shadow of uneasiness and a certain nervous excitement.
"I'm going back to Lin'an tomorrow. I can only contact you by phone. I hope there won't be any problems." Yu Hong didn't know what her boss was thinking.
“Well, let’s go back and face another opponent first.” Fang Zhuo nodded.
Yu Hong was startled for a moment. Another one? What other opponents are there?
She thought it was a slip of the tongue and did not ask any questions.
