Everyone around burst into laughter. The old people in the institute all knew that Jiang Hua liked to be eclectic, and he liked to joke around and tell jokes no matter what, and he would never let his words fall to the ground.
Someone joked: "Mr. Jiang, the red envelope must be generous. I also have to support my family, so I'm just looking forward to the bonus."
"You can't tell me that. I don't care about anything now. I'm just a shriveled consultant. If you want a big red envelope, go to your boss Lu."
Jiang Hua picked up the laser disc on the machine and asked the technician: "How long can this disc store image data?"
"About seventy minutes or so."
"You can't save even one movie." Jiang Hua looked at it and said, "One movie requires two discs."
"That's right, but CDs are very lightweight. Compared with video tapes, this is already a big improvement."
Jiang Hua was looking at the player: "It's a bit inconvenient to change another one after watching one. Can you make this disc-carrying thing bigger so that it can hold two or three discs? After one is played, it can be directly connected to the next one.
One piece."
This is the famous function of VCD in later generations, continuous playback of three discs, which is a specialty of many VCD brands.
"Yes, I'll change it right now."
Jiang Hua quickly stopped him: "At first glance, you look like a scientific researcher and don't know how to do business."
The person in charge asked in confusion: "Mr. Jiang, what do you mean?"
"This selling point can be put into the next generation of products." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "We can't just sell one machine for twenty years, and launch a new one every six months or so to add some selling points to the product. The next generation
Just add a three-disc continuous playback function, and in the next generation, you can try to add karaoke singing to it."
"Well said. As expected of our old leader, he has a long-term vision for electronic products."
The voice sounded familiar to Jiang Hua, it was Lu Xiuying who said it. He turned around and saw Lu Xiuying walking towards here in a professional suit.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I was hurrying but I was still a little slower than you." Lu Xiuying said apologetically, "I'm already on the earliest flight today."
"You came just in time. These subordinates of yours are going to ask you for bonuses."
Lu Xiuying said cheerfully: "I will definitely pay you. It must be generous. After we come up with this player, we will definitely make a lot of money. We must give you a large bonus this time."
"Mr. Jiang just named this thing VCD." The person in charge quickly said: "Huaxing VCD."
"The name is really good. It sounds catchy and will not be difficult for foreigners to pronounce." Lu Xiuying nodded: "I will have someone register the trademark right now."
"How are the arrangements for the factory in the special zone?" Jiang Hua asked with his hands behind his back. Lu Xiuying felt as if she had gone back to the time when he was Jiang Hua's assistant.
"The equipment is already being installed, and it will be ready for mass production in half a month at most." Lu Xiuying replied: "The production process of this VCD is not complicated. My only worry now is how to spread the word and spread the reputation of our products.
It’s started.”
"Then as soon as possible, first produce a batch of goods and store them, and then we will go to Hollywood to hold a product launch conference."
Lu Xiuying asked in confusion: "Why do you have to go to Hollywood to hold a product launch conference? Can't you do it in Hong Kong? Why do you have to travel so far?"
"Ugly Country is now a popular trend in the world. If you have a name with them, it means you have a name all over the world."
"There's no need to go to Hollywood."
"You're stupid, what is our player playing? It's a movie. Which movie in the world is the most popular now? Apart from Hollywood, is there any other place? Hong Kong is also far behind."
Lu Xiuying nodded in agreement. She really hadn't thought about it in detail.
"By the way, there are two more things to do. Negotiate with film companies in various countries to purchase part of the movie copyrights and make them into CDs as a bonus. After we sell the video recorder, we will not give a single CD to others, and let others
Take it home and use it as a decoration."
Lu Xiuying nodded: "That's no problem. If you have too many, you won't be able to get them. A few movies are still fine."
"We only produce blank discs, not filled discs." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "So we also have to produce machines for filling discs in our factory. In addition, we give away this part of the profits to unite more people. If we occupy
Without all the profits from upstream and downstream, our business will be over. We must not learn from Xiaodongyang. They just want to grab the entire industry chain. I am sure that sooner or later, their semiconductor industry will one day
It’s time to finish playing.”
"What if other companies also want to produce such VCDs? Because our factory's limited production capacity alone cannot supply it to the whole world."
Jiang Hua smiled: "Then just authorize the patent. They produce it and we make money. It doesn't matter if we sell it overseas."
Lu Xiuying said happily: "I think so too, and have discussed it with several deputy general managers. They also think that authorized production is a better method."
"Just make up your mind. You don't need to ask me anymore. I'm just a consultant now."
Lu Xiuying smiled and said, "Just because you are a consultant, I want to ask you."
After the two people decided, the person in charge led them forward. In a corner of the same laboratory, there was a researcher holding a box in his hand and looking at Jiang Hua pitifully.
However, the person in charge did not lead Jiang Hua here. Instead, he turned a corner and was about to walk out of the laboratory. In just a few steps, he would really be walking out of the laboratory.
The researcher couldn't care about anything else and stopped in front of Jiang Hua in three steps and two steps.
"Mr. Jiang, I have designed a product myself. Please help me evaluate it."
The person in charge quickly scolded: "Xiao Liu, why are you so ignorant? Mr. Jiang finally came here. You asked him to look at the important things first. This product of yours is not mature yet. Leave it to the end."
The researcher said aggrievedly: "Director, you always deceive me. Today will be postponed to tomorrow, and tomorrow will be postponed to the day after tomorrow. The things I use to design products are still leftover materials from our laboratory. Now I just want Mr. Jiang to
Help me take a look and point out a research direction, it won’t take long.”
Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Okay, let me take a look. Director Xie, you are a bit demotivating researchers. Since they are designing and making products, you can't make them thicker and thinner."
Director Xie curled his lips and said, "It's not that I'm a bit more generous than a guy who's not, but Xiao Liu's product is a bit whimsical and unrealistic."
