After breakfast, Feng Yu rested for a while before going to Amazon.
After arriving at the company, Feng Yu went directly to Bezos's office. When Bezos saw Feng Yu, he stood up immediately, holding a thick stack of documents in his hand.
"Mr. Feng, you are finally here. Recently I had an idea, maybe we at Amazon can make a product that changes people's reading habits!" Bezos said impatiently.
Feng Yu raised his eyebrows: "A product that changes people's reading habits? You mean electronic paper books?"
Bezos's smile froze, what, how is this possible? He hasn't said anything yet. How could Feng Yu guess it all at once? !
"Mr. Feng, how did you know?" Bezos looked shocked.
Feng Yuxin said, this seems to be a very new thing now, but in the previous life, it was nothing at all, right
The real concept of e-paper books in the previous life, or the concept of e-readers, was proposed by Amazon. But the first three companies to make it were Sunny, Philips and e-ink. Feng Yu never thought of this, so he didn't remind him.
Just now, Bezos talked about the product that changed people's reading habits. Only then did Feng Yu remember that it should be the e-reader created by Amazon. In this life, Philip did not choose to cooperate with Suini, so Suini just made this product by himself. After it was introduced to the market, the response was very poor.
"Because someone in China has already proposed this thing. Maybe you don't know that in China, many novels are paid to read on the Internet, which is not surprising. And this product has already been made by Sunny. Well, not many have been sold in the island country, and user feedback is not very good."
Feng Yu looked like he was not surprised, but he was actually very happy inside. The reason why Sunny's products were not good at the beginning was because the e-ink technology was not good enough, but now, this technology is already very good.
With this product, he is closer to the birth of tablet computers, and this product can also stimulate the consumption of e-reading and make more money for him.
Of course, it is not possible for electronic reading to replace traditional paper reading, at least not in a short time. Many people still like to read with a book in hand, they like the smell of paper, and they won’t be unable to read because of lack of power.
Hearing what Feng Yu said, Bezos seemed to be hit hard. He thought he had come up with a brilliant idea, but he didn't expect that the Chinese had already thought of it, and Sini had already launched one, and he didn't even know it.
"Mr. Feng, is it made by Taihua Holding Group? Is it made by Fengyu Electronics or Lianxiang Group? Can we license this technology to Amazon? We are the largest online book distributor in the world, or will the Internet This word can also be removed. If this product is branded with Amazon’s trademark, it will definitely sell better!”
"This is still under development and has not been produced yet. What, Amazon is planning to do this? When you say this, it seems very appropriate." Fengyu Electronics gave up after half of the research, because they are currently focusing on tablets. They believe that this electronic paper book will soon be replaced by tablets.
Bezos was ecstatic: "So Mr. Feng agreed to let Amazon develop this product?"
"I agree, why don't you agree? What you said makes sense. Amazon is the largest book distributor in the world. It is really good for Amazon to sell this product. But for development, it should cooperate with other companies."
"By the way, what you are holding in your hand is the copywriting plan. Let me take a look."
As soon as Feng Yu stretched out his hand, Bezos quickly handed the document to Feng Yu, while also introducing the product he imagined.
There is now such a technology called electronic paper and electronic ink, which is a product developed as a substitute for office paper.
So this product is quite different from a tablet, but it also has some things in common. Of course, it cannot be understood as an oversized mp3 because the technology used is different.
Moreover, Feng Yu saw the design of this product and found that it also has a keyboard, similar to that of the Black Rose mobile phone, and has many function buttons.
Compared with the products that Feng Yu had seen in his previous life, there was still a big gap between this product and the electronic paper books that Feng Yu had seen in his previous life. They no longer had full keyboards, just a few buttons.
Moreover, the memory of this electronic paper book is not large, and there are not many functions. According to Bezos's idea, it is enough to be able to read the electronic paper book. The supported reading formats are also limited, only txt and pdf. Bezos's The idea is to develop an electronic document reading format belonging to Amazon.
After Feng Yu flipped through some pages and asked Bezos some questions, he closed the copy.
"Bezos, the idea of this electronic paper book is okay, but your idea is too limited. Yes, your design has 64MB of memory, which is enough to store hundreds of electronic paper books in txt format, but it is too small. I know you designed it to support SD card expansion, but why not just make it bigger?"
"Also, there are too few supported reading formats. If you want to make your own electronic document reading format, you can do that, but the first thing you need to do is to be compatible with other reading formats. For example, Microsoft's format, Lianxiang Yinshan's format, etc. .”
"Only the txt format can be done by mobile phones, and so can super mp3. You just enlarge the screen and enhance the functions. Why should others buy your product?"
"Electronic paper books can not only be read with the eyes, but also listened to with the ears. Just like children, many are clearly literate, but they don't like to read fairy tales by themselves, but like their parents to tell them. So this electronic book Paper books, why can’t they have a listening mode?”
"Since it can be listened to, it can have a recording mode so that parents can record some stories for their children to listen to. Therefore, this product must have a headphone jack and can even be connected to a microphone."
"Another important point is that you said that this product is lighter than an ordinary book, but you designed so many buttons, which are completely redundant. Why not just use touch screen technology? Didn't you equip it with a pen? It only requires a few A simple function key is enough, just like the Fengyu mobile phone series of smartphones, which have abandoned so many buttons, allowing the screen to become larger, the body to become smaller and lighter.”
“If you want this product to replace books, then it must have the cover of a normal book, so this product must also be able to display beautiful book cover pictures, or illustrations of novels, so this product must be able to read pictures in multiple formats. picture."
"In terms of reading time, this product saves more power than MP3, etc., but the reading time must also be considered. It is best to keep turning pages for more than 10,000 pages continuously!"
"I will put forward so many requirements for the time being. As long as they can be solved, this product will definitely be welcomed by the market. If you want to do it, you can entrust companies such as Fengyu Electronics to develop and design it for Amazon."
"Really? That's great. This product will definitely bring our Amazon e-book sales to a new level!"
