It can be translated as a laser turntable, which is usually called a laser turntable in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

Its principle is exactly the same as that of a record player. It records a computer-recognizable 1 or 0 signal by ablation of a pit on a coated plastic disc. After the ablation is completed, reflective material is applied to the surface of the disc. When the laser diode is irradiated along the track, the part that is not ablated strongly reflects, and is counted as 1, while the part of the pit has weak reflection and is marked as 0 on the level signal.

This is the same as the lowest level of machine code.

However, due to the low technical level of integrated circuits, although the storage format is purely digital, it is very difficult to decode through digital. Therefore, the designer was unique and restored the digital signal to an analog signal through a digital/analog conversion circuit, which was played out like playing a TV signal.

This is actually a laser video technology that uses digital recording and analog playback, and later digital video, which are completely different from those that are digital video.

It is precisely because of the same storage method that to record a movie of one and a half hours, the diameter of the disc must reach 30 cm and must be used on both sides before it can be used. Correspondingly, to drive such a huge laser turntable, the mechanical part is also very large, and the bald head needs to be read on both sides, so the structure becomes extremely complex.

As a result, the entire body is huge and heavy, and the price remains high. A laser video recorder, priced at 7,000 or 8,000 US dollars, is more than twice as expensive as the game console sold by Taiyu.

Such an expensive video player, even if the video reaches 720 lines and more than 500 lines, it is much higher than the video recorder of TV stations. It is an unparalleled ultra-high-definition video in this era, but even in Europe and the United States, which have higher incomes, ordinary people cannot afford it and have very few sales.

However, in East Asia, where income is lower, due to its strong karao atmosphere, many of them bought it as a karao player, and the sales are quite good.

This DVD player produced in the base area is taking the pure digital decoding route.

From a technical perspective, a digital decoding chip that achieves TV picture quality must have an integration level of at least one million. It is precisely because it cannot solve this problem that digital-to-analog conversion is used to bypass it with the clumsyest means, and ￥≥ding￥≥diǎn￥≥small￥≥￥≥s, .2←3.o↙ s=”arn:2p 00”>srp p=”/aasrp”>s_;/sr

/>Analog circuits are used as the final decoding method.

It is precisely because this technology is so useless that Philips agreed to sell it to Taiyu Technology under Motorola's agency, allowing Taiyu to obtain the qualification to enter the laser disc player market.

But who knew that with the help of the biological auxiliary brain, Guan Fei broke down a complete decoding circuit into eight parts. He then successfully designed a digital decoding circuit using the three-micron line width process technology, and all the exclusive technical patents allowed it to be released ten years ahead of schedule.

However, this is no longer a decoding chip, but it should be called a decoding circuit board.

Without exposing the current highest chip manufacturing level in the base area, using process technology of the same level as 286, this decoding board can only reach its initial level.

Its decoding rate can reach up to 30 frames per second required by the n-standard at a TV station image quality level of 352240. At such a code rate, because there is no time to decode, there will be occasional lag and mosaics during playback.

If you choose the pa standard, the decoding rate of 24 frames per second will be greatly reduced.

Tao Xuexiang's actual appearance is also similar.

As a disc for the video player to play the demonstration, a landscape film was specially selected, with a large amount of vegetation and rocky soil, which hides the graininess in the picture quality as much as possible, so that the viewer will not be too sensitive to it. But despite this, Tao Xuexiang can easily feel through the naked eye that its picture quality can reach the most of the TV broadcasting effect, which is very different from that.

She was greatly disappointed.

Although she is not a successful businessman, she has a certain business acumen after following her husband for a long time.

In her opinion, this DVD player can be said to be unsuccessful.

Since the invention of the video recorder in the 1970s, this video recording and playback device has gradually become the mainstream. Now it has been released more clearly, occupying the high-end market.

The video recorder is about three to four thousand US dollars, and the single-player that can only be played but cannot be recorded has been reduced to less than two thousand.

This video disc is obviously the same as that, only plays a well-made laser video disc, cannot record other programs, and the picture quality is very average. When both high, medium and low ends are occupied, she really can't see what value this video playback device has.

"Comrade, what kind of video player is this? I look very similar to a laser video player. What is your price?" She didn't give up immediately and leaned over and asked.

"We are a machine, that is, the video disc player. Although it is not very clear, it is cheap. One machine costs only 2,100 yuan, and it has a wealth of discs. It includes movies, TV series, Karao discs, variety shows, everything you want to watch." The salesperson just saw her standing next to the boss of the business group, and then saw her similar appearance to Pan Meifeng, and there was nothing else I didn't understand. In order to show her in front of her boss, she immediately introduced enthusiastically.

Of course, it would be even better if she was willing to buy one.

One unit costs 2,000 yuan, and the commission of one unit is as good as the others.

"Two thousand one? What is it in Hong Kong dollars?" Tao Xuexiang was a little unsure, blinked her eyes and tried her best to calculate the exchange rate in her mind.

"Mom, it's 6,960 Hong Kong dollars." Zhou Xiaoshan walked over slowly with his wife. He just heard the second half and smiled and quoted the price of Hong Kong dollars. He spent almost two years in Hong Kong, calculating foreign exchange prices every day, and was familiar with the exchange rates of RMB, Hong Kong dollars, US dollars, Japanese yen, and pounds. His mental calculations could immediately come up with results.

"It's only 6,900, so cheap!" Tao Xuexiang was startled and exclaimed.

For video recorders, a single-player that can only be played but not recorded will be close to 2,000 US dollars, which is about 12,000 Hong Kong dollars. If so, the price will be as high as 40,000 to 50,000 Hong Kong dollars.

What's the one in this one? It's only 6,900!

It is four or five thousand cheaper than the cheapest single-player machine!

etc……

"You just said, what kind of videos I want to watch, you all have them here?" She lowered her voice and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, feature films, TV series, Karao, everything. Even the latest TV variety shows are sold here, you wait..." The little girl turned around and ran into the mall without saying a word, and Tao Xuexiang couldn't stop shouting.

"This girl, why is it so popular in doing things? I haven't said I want to buy it yet." Tao Xuexiang was so amused and crying. She pulled her daughter over and asked in a low voice, "What are you, how come there are so many DVDs? Could it be..."

"Yes, we are all pirated!" Pan Meifang admitted openly.

"Ah! How can this work? If someone catches you, you will be sued!" Tao Xuexiang was shocked.

Zhou Xiaoshan smiled and said disapprovingly: "Mom, please give me a hundred and twenty hearts! Our own game consoles are pirated every day, and we have all the evidence and have not won many lawsuits. What is the point of stealing them? We have the ability to catch us in the base. Besides, although it is a pirated disc, we didn't do it ourselves. Even if we want to catch them, we can't find us."

"What's going on?" Tao Xuexiang was still a little uneasy.

She grew up in Hong Kong and has always known that foreign governments are mostly helping their own businessmen. Sony honestly sold a video recorder, but because it sold too well, they were sued by Hollywood in court, saying that after the customer bought the video recorder, he unauthorizedly ripped the movies played by the TV station, which infringed their rights. He even said that because the video recorder could be fast-forward, the audience did not watch advertisements, which made advertisers unwilling to advertise. This was caused by the video recorder sold by Sony, and asked Sony to compensate for huge losses.

Sony negotiated with the other party in private and planned to settle out of court, expressing his willingness to purchase copyright for use in a special video tape rental store.

As a result, the film company Lion spoke out loudly, saying that it is possible to make videotapes and rent them, but the rental profit must belong to the film company. The two parties have broken down from the negotiations and can only decide the outcome in court. The lawsuit was fought from 1976 to this year, and it was still a long time to be settled for five years and it was not settled.

Sony spent a lot of money and energy on this lawsuit, which made them exhausted, and the video recorder sales plummeted.

This is the private behavior of the purchaser. They were all sued to court. The base area is openly pirated, and the circumstances are even worse. If they are caught, they can be said to have no wins or losses when they are in a lawsuit.

If it affects Taiyu Group, even these OEM manufacturers will be affected, and business may be upset.

"Because we handed over the pirated business to several Hong Kong clubs. And we didn't come forward ourselves, but contacted others and made several twists in the middle. Even if the defendant pirated the pirated version and asked the police to catch the individual stolen goods and seized it, we couldn't find out." Zhou Xiaoshan comforted.

"But pirated discs can only be used on your DVD player..."

"That can only be said that our DVD player is good. People are willing to make pirated discs, so what's up to us!" Zhou Xiaoshan sneered.

As Guan Fei's young follower, his views on good and evil are completely learned from Guan Fei.

If we treat it fairly, then we do business well and we go to pay a lot of the docks we should pay homage. But if we treat it differently, then I'm sorry, you will do evil things, and you are not the only ones.

Do you even dare to do something about beheading and rebellion, but are you afraid of piracy?

Taiyu has contacted the copyright matter, but the film company just wants to drive the audience into the cinema and make all the money, not wanting to give a penny to others. As soon as the two parties contacted each other, the other party refused the suppressed copyright authorization and the possibility of selling the genuine version.

It doesn’t look like a video recorder, and it also has a video recorder. What’s the difference between not having a source of film and bricks?

Business must be done, this is the primary principle.

Since the right path cannot be understood, don’t blame us for walking on the side path.

The base privately passed through the members of the previously contacted community members, and then secretly smuggled several sets of CD-pressing equipment to underground communities in Hong Kong, Japan, and the United States, secretly pirated thousands of pirated discs and hoarded them. When they were listed in the above areas, they would start to rent small stores for various videotapes or other channels to secretly sell pirated discs.

Guan Fei knew very well that although it was so expensive, until the production line was finally closed, a total of 16.8 million units were sold in thirty years, with an average annual sales of more than 500,000 units. The video recorder was even more popular, with an average annual sales of millions.

It is not easy to seize all their markets, and they can share a market share of one-tenth of them. They also have sales of hundreds of thousands of units every year, creating a profit of one billion for the base area, which is very satisfying.

If you upgrade to it in the future, then the meal tickets for the next twenty or thirty years will be guaranteed.
