Volume Four, Section 42, Ambitious
Sha Zhengyang's heart lit up, there was a way.
"A Duan, I have conducted a relatively detailed investigation and survey on the vcd disc machine industry through various channels. Wanyan Company did not apply for the manufacturing patent of vcd disc machine. In fact, my analysis mainly is that Wanyan may consider that the movement, mpeg decoding chip and these two parts are the core technologies of the video disc machine. Wanyan actually made some breakthroughs in integration, that is, a solution, but whether it can be recognized as a patent, plus the domestic climate, Wanyan gave up."
"It should be like this." Duan Yongming was also very interested in the VCD DVD player industry. He also thought about it and naturally understood the mystery.
"But if it were me, even if it was the integration part, we should strive to get a patent. Once we got the patent, this may become a reliance on patent interaction authorization with other companies in the future."
"Maybe in different environments at different times and different ideas," Sha Zhengyang also felt a pity, but some things were hard to explain. "Now I guess Japanese companies basically have this manufacturing capability. The key is that the market is not mature and lacks supporting software content. Wan Yan is still increasing his investment, but it is too much to spend on his own, and it is difficult to change the mentality of the Chinese people. They can often cost dozens or hundreds of yuan per CD, and few people can afford it, so this market will take some time."
Notice the flashing gaze in Sha Zhengyang's eyes, Duan Yongming took a deep breath, "You mean pirated disc..."
"Yes, unless the pirated disc comes out on a large scale and the CD price is reduced, the VCD DVD player will not be sold. A Duan, you are always in the market, and you should be able to see this." Sha Zhengyang said calmly.
Nanyue has always been a pioneer in piracy. From tapes, videotapes to CDs, it is crowded here. Duan Yongming, who has lived here for a long time, naturally knew that Sha Zhengyang's words also made him feel slightly moved.
"What do you mean is that the pirated CD will come out soon?" Duan Yongming said in a deep thought.
"It will not only come out, but also rush to the top. You and I know how high the price of genuine CDs is now. Guangzhou costs 90 to 100 yuan per pair, Yanjing sells 160 to 180 yuan per pair, while blank CDs cost 15 yuan per piece, and pirated CDs cost no more than 18 yuan per piece. You say that such huge profits are afraid that they will come faster than smuggling. Who can stand it?"
Sha Zhengyang spoke very easily.
Duan Yongming couldn't help but admire this guy's vision, and he had already seen this.
"I wonder if there is any movement here?" Duan Yongming asked casually.
"As far as I know, some people are starting to move. Some are importing the equipment and production lines for platen pressing, while others are preparing to turn the original black line, which is adjacent to Hong Kong, with rich content. Just one needs to combine and open, a huge torrent will flow into the whole country." Sha Zhengyang sighed softly, "Wan Yan spent a huge amount of money to buy copyrights like those audio-visual publishers to make early investments, purely to throw money into the water, but as a pioneer, it must not do this, so..."
"Don't you be optimistic about Wan Yan?" Duan Yongming asked calmly.
"What can I do if I'm born at the wrong time?" Sha Zhengyang shrugged, "It's just a cheaper future generation."
Duan Yongming remained silent.
"A Duan, when you come to Wanzhou, the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government will fully support you, and will also give you controlling rights and comprehensive management rights, and even support in various aspects such as loans. Believe me, coming to Wanzhou will be where you will achieve your great goals." Sha Zhengyang said sincerely.
Duan Yongming thought about it and said, "Zhengyang, I think you have already thought about this plan very thoroughly. Why do you have to choose me? You can do it yourself! And I have also learned that Dongfanghong Group is what you did. You are an expert in running a company, no worse than me."
"A Duan, I don't tell lies in front of you. I have no intention of running a business, otherwise I would not have left Dongfanghong. In addition, the environment in the electronics industry is different now. You have the ability and vision, and there is a team. This is the most important thing. Time is endless and I can't wait." Sha Zhengyang said calmly.
Duan Yongming pursed his lips, "Let me think about it, okay?"
"Also, A Duan, you may have noticed that the vcd disc machine industry will bring a huge market, but the key technologies are in the hands of foreigners, the movement is in the hands of Philips, and the mpeg decoding chip is controlled by Scooper. However, I personally think that the mpeg decoding chip is not mature enough, and it can be developed and made breakthroughs in this area. There is a certain technology in the Wanzhou Radio Plant. If we can find a way to explore some talents, we may not be able to make breakthroughs in this decoding chip technology and take it into our own hands."
Sha Zhengyang's tone was very certain, which surprised Duan Yongming.
This is not a joke. Although he doesn't know much about the mpeg decoding chip technology, he also knows that since Scooper regards it as if he is in his hands, it may not be so easy to develop.
Seeing Duan Yongming a little confused, Sha Zhengyang said again: "Don't you know whether you know about Lenovo?"
"I know." How could Duan Yongming not know about such a leading computer company in China? What's more, more or less, Bawang learning machines are still a bit related to computers. As the boss of Bawang Electronics, he cannot be unclear about some changes in the industry.
"If I say that Lenovo may be facing division, their technical team is the Lianhai Microelectronics Center, which has now begun to take it down, do we have the hope of taking it down? Do you think it is worth it?" Sha Zhengyang's eyes flashed with a light mixed with ambition and adventure.
He was very heart-to-heart. Of course, this was also the premise that he felt that it was very likely to impress Duan Yongming.
"Ah?!" Duan Yongming was shocked. He had never heard of Lianhai Microelectronics Center, and he had heard of the disputes within Lenovo. However, it seems that it has been an exaggeration to say that it has developed into a state of division. But Sha Zhengyang dared to say this, but it was not necessary to deceive himself by saying that.
"Zhengyang, where did you think Lenovo is facing splitting? " Duan Yongming couldn't help asking.
"A Duan, where does the news come from? I have my own channels. After all, I am the founder of Dongfanghong Group. I still have some connections in the business world and some friends in Beijing, so I can get this news." Sha Zhengyang had no choice but to fool him at this time.
"There are differences in Lenovo's development path. The dominant party hopes to focus on developing computers, produce computers by importing foreign chips, and build a large computer company, while the other party hopes to be independent in chip research and development. In addition, it also involves further research and development of large-scale program-controlled switches. There are huge differences in the focus of development, which is probably difficult to bridge."
Duan Yongming believed most of the time when he saw that the other party was saying so thoroughly.
The problem is that it is not easy to get a microelectronics R&D center, it is not enough to just spend some money.
To be honest, you are willing to spend money on others, and you also see whether others look down on you.
In Duan Yongming's view, Wanzhou Radio Plant is just a local bully, and even the survival crisis has not been resolved, he actually wants to marry the turtle of Lianhai Microelectronics Center.
"Zhengyang, even if what you said is true, do you think Wanzhou Radio Plant can take over Lianhai Microelectronics Center?" Duan Yongming hesitated for a moment, "You should be clear that Wanzhou Radio Plant is a manufacturing enterprise. Even if it has established the VCD DVD player industry, it seems that there is still a little far apart when it comes to researching and developing decoding chips."
"A Duan, I know your concerns, but this is a later story. As for the moment, although there is a trend of division within Lenovo, it has not reached that point yet. I think if you can take over the Wanzhou Radio Plant, we will do it first. We will have the opportunity to study and discuss this matter in the future." Sha Zhengyang said seriously.
"The technical content of mpeg decoding chips is not as difficult as we imagined. And if we overcome this difficulty, we can produce mpeg decoding chips ourselves. With the explosion of the VCD DVD player market, we can continue to be used by ourselves, and can be sold to other peers to earn huge profits."
Duan Yongming actually realized this.
Sha Zhengyang is obviously not satisfied with a simple VCD DVD player. He wants to control the production of core components of the DVD player and then make higher profits.
The movement may be more difficult, but he believes that the mpeg decoding chip is a breakthrough, and he even wants to win the Lianhai Microelectronics Center and concentrate all forces to overcome this technical difficulty.
This also shows from another perspective how optimistic the other party is about the future of the vcd DVD player market.
"Your idea is good, but it's hard to say whether it can be put into reality." Duan Yongming paused for a moment, "I basically understand your ideas, but for such a big thing, I still need to consider when you plan to leave Zhongshan?"
"It depends on you. If you can give me an answer within a day or two, then I can stay. If not, then I have to go back first." Sha Zhengyang looked at the other party.
Duan Yongming thought for a while, "Okay, let's do it. I'll give you an accurate reply within two days, but Zhengyang is worried. Even if I don't accept your invitation, I will keep the secret. In addition, even if I consider accepting the invitation, I may still have many details to discuss, and in the process, I may also change my mind."
"I understand, this is a big deal, and it is not too easy to be cautious." Sha Zhengyang smiled understandingly, "To put it in my heart, I really look forward to working with you, A Duan. Although I am not responsible for business operations, I believe that we will not be less involved in dealing with you in the future."
