The next day, Jiang Wanmeng, Xu Lihua and others came together and brought their newly developed product, which they named Super MP3. . :.
To put it bluntly, it is an mp3 that can play videos. In the previous life, this product was called mp4 in China.
"Mr. Feng, we have successfully developed this product. Such a gadget can be used to watch videos in the future." Jiang Wanmeng said excitedly.
"Oh? It can only play fixed formats, right?" Feng Yu asked.
"Well, that's right, it currently only supports one video format. But we come with a video format conversion software that can convert video files in other formats into mpeg-4 video format."
Feng Yu shook his head: "What about the speed of conversion? It's very slow, right? I have time for conversion, why not watch it directly on the computer? But this is not bad, it is a technical breakthrough. Next, you have to find a way , make a compatible format."
If it takes more than ten minutes or even dozens of minutes to convert a video format, it is too slow. And you also have to consider the screen size, it won’t work if it’s too big.
Therefore, Feng Yu said that this product can only be regarded as a super MP3, a purely transitional product.
Because when this technology is fully mature, it can be applied to mobile phones. By then, mobile phones will have this function. How many people will buy a super MP3 player just for this function
"This product of ours can also view pictures and e-books."
"Well, that's good."
In any case, the main function of this product is to play mp3 for listening to music. Although you can watch videos, pictures, and e-books, the screen is so small that it seems very tiring for your eyes, so listening is the most important thing.
"But don't be discouraged. Don't forget that we still have a website. We can provide free downloads of video clips in mp4 format on the website, which will save them the trouble of converting the format. In other words, converting the format requires us To be done."
Xu Lihua immediately said: "This is no problem, we are already doing it. Through the Naohu Channel, they have the copyright of many short films, and many of them are uploaded by netizens spontaneously. This agreement has stated that others are allowed to download freely. So We have both paid video clips and free ones, which should be able to meet the needs of most users."
"What about the copyright of e-books? Have you considered it?"
"We have also contacted Yuandian Chinese website about this. They will provide downloads of versions suitable for our format. Some of them are paid and some are free. We are also contacting other websites."
"As for pictures, this is relatively simple. We support mainstream formats and do not need to be converted."
&nbp3, the appearance retains the usual excellent design, there are not many buttons, but they are more practical. It is very simple to operate and can be completed with one hand.
The screen is 2.8 inches, which is already very large. Coupled with the buttons, it makes this product look huge. But it’s still easy to hold with one hand, so there’s no problem.
The button elasticity is very good, Feng Yu asked, and after testing, it should be fine for three years of normal use, even for a person who reads e-books and frequently turns pages.
This product still has no external sound, so you can only use headphones.
Feng Yu played a video and put on his headphones to experience it. Well, the sound quality is pretty good. Even if you take off the headphones and turn them to the maximum, you won't hear any noise.
The picture quality is also relatively clear, and Feng Yu is quite satisfied with the screen resolution.
However, Feng Yu still discovered a few small problems. He took off his headphones and threw the Super MP3 player on the table with a bang.
Xu Lihua and Jiang Wanmeng were both shocked. What's going on with Mr. Feng? Is he not satisfied? I have never seen Mr. Feng throw anything.
"Mr. Feng, is there something wrong with this product?" Xu Lihua asked cautiously.
Feng Yu: "Ah? I just want to test whether this product is resistant to falling."
Xu Lihua "..."
Jiang Wanmeng "..."
Can you tell us before you try it? We thought there was something wrong. This is scary.
"It's okay. There doesn't seem to be any damage. However, there are still some other problems with this product. I'll bring it up and you can see if it can be improved."
Xu Lihua and Jiang Wanmeng immediately sat up straight, facing the teacher like primary school students, listening to the instructions.
"First of all, this product is the same as the traditional MP3, without external sounds. I know that the sound quality will not be very good for such a big small thing with external sounds. But think about it, how many functions a mobile phone has, which one can external sounds? Yin, why can’t we have this? Especially now that you can play videos, sometimes many people will watch the videos together.”
"Secondly, you only support videos in mpeg-4 format. This is not good. We need to work hard on the system so that it can play videos in multiple formats. Compatibility is very important."
When watching a video, the most annoying thing is to suddenly tell you that this video format is not supported!
"Also, since you have made it so big, you have enlarged the screen and increased the battery power, right? Let me ask you, what if you finish reading all the content and listening to all the songs?"
"Exchange it for a new one." Xu Lihua looked at Feng Yu in surprise. Is there anything that he can't understand
"Have you never thought about combining this product with other products to form micro-innovations?"
It’s a micro-innovation again, but what product should it be combined with, CD? Or a cassette player
"I will give you two examples. For example, if this product can be combined with a voice recorder, it will be a super MP3 player that can record. If it can be combined with a radio, then as long as there is a signal, you will not be afraid of not having new content. appreciate."
"You can have a mobile phone that takes pictures, so why can't you have this super MP3 player? Why can't the photos stored in it be taken by yourself? Otherwise, how many people would save photos in MP3 players?"
"Also, since the screen is so big, why not try to make a touch screen? Mobile phones can have touch screens, laptops can also have touch screens, and even electronic dictionaries, learning machines, etc. can have touch screens. , why can’t I have this mp3?”
"If it can be turned into a touch screen, then the buttons can be simplified, and the screen can be larger with the same body size. Since videos can be played, naturally the larger the screen, the clearer the view. And I watched Take a look, this picture, the font size of the e-book, etc., all have only three formats. Do you remember the pictures on our touch-screen mobile phones? You can zoom in and out with just two fingers. Isn’t this more convenient and looks more advanced? ?”
After hearing what Feng Yu said, Jiang Wanmeng and Xu Lihua were a little downcast. The excellent product they thought they had made actually had so much room for improvement.
"By the way, Lao Xu, you said that the technology of digital cameras for shooting video clips has matured?"
