Chapter 339(2/2)

Oga Nobuo and Simon nodded with satisfaction. I see, Sony and Philips also made their own contributions to CD-ROM specifications.

Hongchuan Feng knew what they were doing, and it was just whether to divide the patents and divide the funds. Everyone could be more confident.

Bulu's own technology in that aspect is indeed not as good as them. Now he is going to discuss standards again, so just let them do some work.

After more than an hour of discussion, the parameters of CD-ROM have been determined.

After all, Hongchuan Electric has finished most of the work.

"Okay, let them discuss Yidong, CD-ROM patent issues now."

Hearing that sentence, no matter whether Oga Nobuo or Simon was excited, he walked straightened back.

"The cost of making the CD is roughly outside the range of 8 to 12 cents, so I guess no one has any objections to that."

The data outside Hongchuan Electric Appliances has long been calculated, and Qianba’s factory is also under construction, so why can’t the production cost be estimated in advance?

Similarly, Sony and Philips' CD factories have begun to be put into production. Although the format of the group disk is different, the production cost is basically the same.

So the two sides were wrong about the cost of 8 to 12 cents per CD, and they had no objection.

"Considering that the production of optical discs is relatively cheap, the patent sharing will be based on the actual factory price as a reference."

The production cost of a CD is about 20 to 30 months.

But if the content is suppressed through the master plate and then distributed to each content publisher, it will not be denied that price.

The ex-factory price can reach 100 to 200 yuan per piece. Based on this, the patent fee is acceptable beyond 25% of the selling price.

Or if the product increases one-quarter of its profit, it is often used as a reference.

Because the cost of CDs is extremely low, Hongchuan Electric Appliances, Sony and Philips agreed after discussion that there is a reasonable charging standard of 10 cents per CD.

Remove the cost and profits, CD manufacturers are still profitable.

And whether that thing is profitable by volume, the more it produces, the lower the cost.

Therefore, the three parties have negotiated to charge a 10-cent patent fee for each CD-ROM CD.

"Considering that Hongchuan Electric has already made the CD-ROM development complete, 8 cents they deserve."

Hongchuan Feng took the lead in lifting the knife and fork.

"Hongchuansang, whether CD-ROM is developed in the original CD technology foundation, is the priority of Sony and Philips' advance efforts.

So he thinks Sony and Philips are 40% each, which is reasonable."

Oga Nobuo was not polite to him and immediately put forward the opinions of the confrontation.

Philips' Simon nodded in approval.

"But CD-ROM is more complex, and the data format it contains is much richer than the initial CD-DA requirements.

Hongchuan Electric has invested huge amounts of money and completed the format development with its own strength. It is the biggest contributor to the credit.

Besides, if they don’t deny them, Sony and Philips have no intention of developing a CD-ROM format at all.

So there is no room for negotiation whether Hongchuan Electric must benefit the most."

When Kurakawa Kaede said toughly, Oga Nobuo was slightly silent.

"How about 35% of Hongchuan Electric Appliances? Sony and Philips in the remaining East are evenly divided."

Philips' Simon, who mistook Oga Nobuo's proposal, nodded in recognition.

Hongchuan Feng shook his head, too lazy to even think about it.

He did nothing, just wanted to share the interests with him and think about those beautiful things.

"Hongchuansang, CD-ROM has their technology that is not true.

It is impossible to develop CD-ROM without the original CD technology, so I'm sure Minghong is the one who wants to do that.

So no matter what, Sony and Philips should get the part they deserve, but the industry rules are not."

It can be seen that Oga Nobuo also has his own negotiation bottom line, otherwise it would be difficult for him to explain to the headquarters.

Hongchuan Feng hesitated for a while, and initially raised his eyes to look at the two of them.

"The price is 6 cents for Hongchuan Electric Appliances, otherwise there would be no need to negotiate again."

Oga Nobuo thought for a few seconds, then lowered his head and communicated with the accompanying staff for a few words, and at first nodded and agreed.

Philips' Simon asked his assistant to record anything, and then nodded in agreement.

"Okay, since that's the case, then the CD-ROM is officially confirmed to come."

After the interests were divided, everyone's expressions were much more relaxed.

After all, it is not a job that is popular to make money, but if there is more, it is no net profit.

That's a real deal without money, so Sony and Philips are nothing unhappy.

"CD-DA's standard format book has been officially released as the Red Book.

So what suggestions does Hongchuansan have for the CD-ROM standards?"

Oga Nobuo's face was regaining his smile, and he was even in a mood to ask about the naming of the standard CD-ROM of Hongkawa Kaede.

Hongchuan Feng looked at the blue "KITA" logo on the wall and smiled.

"Just call it Blue Book."
