Feng Yu saw the faces of the two state-owned enterprise CEOs in front of him glowing with excitement. The two held a press conference for a new digital camera together. When they met in Feng Yu, their goals were not just domestic, but looking abroad.
In other words, their goal is the same as that of many Chinese companies, to break out of Asia and go global.
In the early years, China's camera development was actually pretty good. Technology research and development is also pretty good. But China didn't know how to protect technology at that time, and they especially liked to show off.
What's going on? Someone said, I heard that your Huaxia xx camera is very good. Can we take a look
Without saying a word, the leader took the family to visit the factory. He also allowed others to try it out and gave one as a gift as a souvenir. However, you cannot let them take photos casually in the factory. Those data and other things are all given to others for free. Got.
The vast majority of these people who come specifically to visit are from island countries, followed by people from Baodao and South Korea.
Then when others went back, they got the data and invested some money to improve it, and it became their technology, and it was ahead of China's cameras. Then apply for a patent in turn, limiting your development.
At its peak, Huaxia had more than 50 camera brands and more than 30 companies producing cameras. But now, most of them have disappeared in the long river of history.
Some of them are still producing ordinary film cameras, but they are already unable to make ends meet and are not far from bankruptcy.
At this time, two companies that received Kodak's digital camera technology bought back by Taihua Holdings Group came to the fore.
With low prices, extensive publicity, and state support, a domestic trend quickly spread in the Chinese market.
This year alone, the sales volume of digital cameras from these two brands has tripled compared to last year, and together they account for more than 80% of China's digital camera market.
At this time, there were still a large number of Keda washing shops in the streets and alleys. In photo studios, most of the cameras used are film cameras. Most of the digital cameras are purchased by individuals.
Moreover, these two cameras are different from other cameras such as Japan's in that the storage container they use is TF card, while Japan's products use SD cards.
This allows these two cameras to be equipped with larger batteries and last longer in the same size body.
Moreover, these two cameras use a 2-inch LCD color screen with 65,000 colors. The screen is larger and the colors are more realistic. It is truly possible to take pictures and watch them at any time, and delete them at any time if you are not satisfied.
Instead of just taking it out and putting it on the computer, you can see how good the shot is.
Of course, this is just a promotional slogan. In fact, in Feng Yu’s view, the screens of these two cameras are not very good. The screen resolutions of mobile phones in previous lives were millions. Although the digital cameras are a little worse, they are not much different. .
The function of this screen is only to pick out the kind of photos that you don’t need to put on your computer to feel like they were taken by a blind person.
Of course, this also represents a trend in the development of digital cameras. It is not enough that the camera has high pixels and a large optical zoom factor. The screen must also be considered. This is the biggest difference between digital cameras and traditional cameras. You can directly see what you are shooting. Photo.
The camera performance parameters of the two brands are the same, but the design of the buttons and appearance are slightly different. Of course, they made it themselves.
Well, it seems to be an imitation of a foreign product with slight changes.
"Two of you, speaking of which, your company also has shares in our Taihua Holdings Group, so you don't need to worry about the overseas sales agency. We are also shareholders, and we will definitely try our best to make it sell better. As for which of these two models sells better, I can’t guarantee. In my opinion, the two models are about the same. So my advice to you is that the selling prices are different in different countries.”
"Mr. Feng, can you explain clearly?" said Mr. Fang, who was in high spirits.
"It's very simple. Have you ever been to the wet market to buy food? Uh, haven't you? You should have heard of it, right?" Feng Yu was a little embarrassed. Damn it, these gentlemen never cook at home. Leaders don’t even know how to buy groceries. Did this example fail
"Mr. Feng continued, we can understand." Mr. Yuan from Fenghuang resolved Feng Yu's embarrassment.
"In the vegetable market, many stalls sell the same vegetables, even wholesale from the same farmer, but their prices are different. You find that the radish in this stall costs 30 cents a day, while the radish in the next stall costs 30 cents a day. It’s 50 cents a pound, and if the appearance looks similar, then normal people will choose the cheaper one.”
"And the price of potatoes is just the opposite. This one is a bit more expensive. The radishes of one store are very popular, and the potatoes of another store are very popular. In fact, after you leave, you will find that the stall owners of these two stalls are friends. , are neighbors, and some are even relatives. They just come up with such a price difference to stimulate product sales and give consumers the feeling that they are taking advantage of me."
Mr. Fang suddenly realized: "Mr. Feng, I understand, so we are equivalent to dividing the market? In one area, I serve as a foil for their Fenghuang company, and in another area, Fenghuang's company serves as a foil for us. In the end, We all have markets that buy really well.”
Feng Yu looked at him with a teachable look. Mr. Fang's understanding was not bad, so his explanation was not in vain.
But at this time, Mr. Yuan's expression was a little hesitant, as if he wanted to ask something, but was embarrassed to speak.
Feng Yu rolled his eyes at Mr. Yuan: "We will handle the market division in detail and be impartial. If you can't trust me, then you can handle the overseas sales yourself."
Mr. Yuan smiled coquettishly: "Haha, Mr. Feng, I definitely believe you."
Mr. Yuan is not stupid. He leaves the existing sales channels alone and sells them himself? Not to mention their overseas sales, they are now looking darkly. Even if they have some connections, they are far inferior to Feng Yu.
Look at how well other people's Fengyu mobile phones are selling. Sales are rising steadily, and overseas profits have exceeded profits in the Chinese market. ,
Of course, the main product in the Chinese market is Aiwa mobile phones.
"Just trust me. You don't have to think about the screen issue. Once we have new breakthroughs, we will definitely authorize them to you. You are mainly doing research on the main camera technologies such as camera resolution and optical zoom. You get Although the technology I got is not the most advanced in the world, it is not far behind. If it is left behind by another brand in three to five years, I will suffer losses anyway, and I don’t know if you will be stabbed in the back!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Feng. We have reported to our leaders that we will not hand over profits within three years and will all invest in technology research and development. We will make the best digital camera in the world!" Mr. Fang said loudly.
"We are the same, and we promise to be one of the best in the world!" Mr. Yuan said without any sign of weakness.
"As long as you have this confidence, I believe you can do it!"
Feng Yu had a smile on his face. In the future, China's electronic consumer products will surely stand on top of the world!
