After finishing the work in Thailand, it was already the end of 1993.

During the Spring Festival, I took Wang Qixian back to Taiwan in summer.

When the Wang family saw Xiao Xia Ding, they cherished it so much. You can bring it over and I hug it, not to mention that it is so popular.

"Our Xiaoding looks so cute, with a nose that looks like a father and a eyebrows that looks like a mother." Dad Wang smiled, "It's great. He must be a handsome guy when he grows up."

"Yes, but one child is not enough. A Tian, ​​Xiaoxian, you should ask for a few more while you are young." Mother Wang smiled, "At least one son and one daughter, this is good!"

When Wang Qixian heard this, he shook his head and said, "Oh, it's enough to be pregnant with him, I can't stand it if I have another one."

She suffered a lot in order to get pregnant with Xiao Xiading. She could not eat or drink. She also had to exercise under the supervision of a doctor every day, eating nutritious meals that tasted like chewing wax... She didn't want to spend the unhuman days again.

"Silly girl~" Seeing her say this, Wang's mother smiled bitterly and shook her head.

...

"Big brother, second brother, how is the company's recent development?" When Wang Xianxian and his wife were whispering, Xia Tian talked to Wang Xianguang and Wang Xianzong brothers.

"It's very good. The Business Password Computers and e-learning machines you have developed are all very popular. Especially the e-learning machines, which cost 800 yuan per unit, are still in short supply. Nowadays, parents are really willing to spend money on their children." Wang Xianguang said with a smile.

The main components of the electronic learning machine are LCD screens, chips, motherboards, buttons, etc., and the total cost does not exceed 300 yuan. However, because the world's first technology is invented and there are no other companies, the ex-factory price is as high as 800 yuan per unit, and the profit is nearly twice.

If you sell e-learning machines alone, Tianxia Technology will make nearly 300 million yuan. The number of Chinese students exceeds 200 million. If you sell one learning machine for every ten people, then Tianxia Technology will make four or 50 billion yuan. This is a big deal.

"China has had a tradition of 'emphasizing learning' since ancient times. It is estimated that no country in the world can compare to the education of their children." Xia Tian smiled, "It is normal for learning machines to be popular."

Since ancient times, there has been an allusion of "Meng's Mother Moves Three" in China. Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty also wrote a "Poem to Encourage Learning" to encourage students to devote themselves to learning. Therefore, "Education" has always been the top priority in China, and there is a saying that "Ten years of trees, and a hundred years of trees" is said. Therefore, industries related to education are particularly profitable in China.

Xia Tian still remembers that in the 1990s, there was a big-selling book "Four-Wheel Learning Strategy". The national sales volume is 100 million copies, and its price is as high as 180 yuan.

The e-learning machine of Tianxia Technology is only sold for more than one million units now. Although it sounds like a lot, it is still far behind the "Four-Wheel Learning Strategy".

"A Tian, ​​what should we do next?" Wang Xianguang asked again, "Do you need to improve the configuration or add functions?"

"No need for now." Xia Tian waved his hand.

Electronic learning machines are actually not very high-tech products, and their functions are very limited. At most, they only include some question banks, Chinese-English dictionaries, electronic voice, mini-games, etc. Similar functions do not require much high configuration, so the hardware configuration does not need to be upgraded.

This is like a DVD machine. Don’t look at what new functions are added, such as HDMI output, surround sound, power-off repeater, etc., but in fact, the main hardware is still the same and there are not much changes.

However, although the hardware configuration does not need to be modified, you can consider thinking about the shell.

You should know that in fact, except for electronic enthusiasts, most ordinary consumers do not know the electronic products they buy. They don’t even know how to distinguish between memory and hard disk, and they can’t tell the difference between i3, i5, and i7 generations.

There are usually two elements that can determine whether they buy it, one is the price and the other is the appearance. Electronic products with cheaper prices and more beautiful appearance are generally more popular.

In comparison, no matter how good the hardware is, if the appearance is not beautiful enough and the price is not affordable, consumers will not buy it.

This is like domestic refrigerators, air conditioners, and washing machines. It did not pay attention to the appearance design back then, so it seemed quite old-fashioned. Even if the quality is up to standard, the sales volume is far less than that of foreign brands.

I have seen the learning machine produced by Tianxia Technology in summer. To be honest, the function is quite good, but the style is really not worth complimenting. Stupid, big, black, and thick are its main features. A learning machine is actually as thick as a book, which is really not convenient.

Xia Tian had seen a learning machine in his previous life. It was only the size of two postcards, the two coins were so thick, and there were many styles and various colors. It was much better than the current version of the learning machine of Tianxia Technology.

"Put more effort on appearance and software." Xia Tian smiled and said to Wang Xianguang. Wang Xianzong, "You can use software packages to do it. There are many universities, mentors, and teams in China. You can cooperate with them."

"Yes." Wang Xianguang and Wang Xianzong nodded.

...

"Business Communication should be upgraded as soon as possible and add new functions." Xia Tian instructed them again.

Unlike learning machines for students, Business Communication’s customers are middle- and senior management.

No matter how willing the parents of students are to spend money on their children, the money they are to spend on a learning machine is limited. After all, it is just a tool to assist in learning, and it is not clear how effective it is, so they naturally refuse to invest more.

However, Business Connect is much more important for middle and senior management.

After all, middle- and senior management people have to travel to many places every day, meet many customers, handle many official duties, and carry computers with them, which may be inconvenient. If Business Pass can meet the needs of ordinary offices, it would be better.

However, the functions of Business Communication are relatively single at present, only a few functions such as itinerary, electronic business cards, calculator, Chinese-English, Chinese-Japanese, and Chinese-Korean dictionaries. Objectively speaking, it is equivalent to an electronic version of a note book with limited functions.

If you add Bluetooth, ifi, camera, communication, web browsing, email sending and receiving, file editing and other functions, then this business channel will be valuable. Of course, it is more like a smartphone in your previous life.

However, this is not surprising, because the smartphone integrates mp3, mp4, handheld game consoles, digital cameras, IFI, Bluetooth, GPS positioning, electronic navigation and other instruments, and is a versatile device in itself.
