Feng Yu gave a notice to the representatives of these companies that he would receive the representatives of each company at the Fengyu Electronics headquarters in three days and announce a major event at the same time.

Senior executives of each company who received the notice responded quickly. When they heard that Songxia had already sent out their vice-presidents, they could not send out ordinary managers, so they sent out company executives one after another. They are either vice presidents or vice presidents, and many of them are directors of the company, and they are full of sincerity.

Thomas was naturally invited, but he didn't know what Feng Yu was going to do. But Feng Yu told him it was a good thing, so he came without hesitation.

The first time he met Feng Yu, he facilitated the cooperation between the two parties, allowing him to gain more say in Philips Company. Although he owns some shares in Philips, he is not a member of the board of directors.

If he can do better and let the shareholders see it, then it is not impossible for him to be elected to the board of directors and enter the company's core management.

Even if it doesn't work, then he, the lower-ranked vice president, can be assigned more power. In this way, he will receive more company equity rewards and earn more.

Feng Yu looked at the company names on the list. Except for Sony, Dongzhi, HP, Pioneer and other companies that were not invited, they were the first to compete with Fengyu Electronics on the DVD standard. All the other companies that were actually invited came.

"I am very glad that you can come to participate in the seminar organized by Fengyu Electronics, a seminar on the development of DVD. Everyone knows that VCD is just a transitional product, and the product that will dominate home audio and video playback in the future is DVD. Everyone knows Are you researching DVD technology? But the core image and sound storage technology patents are in my hands. And I am working with Philips to prepare for the implementation of DVD standards, formats and technical indicators."

"I know that everyone here is here for the development of VCD, but temporary success or failure cannot determine future success or failure, right? Every company should also be studying DVD, right? They all want to replace us, right? ?”

Seeing the unnatural looks on the faces of the company representatives, Feng Yu showed a sarcastic smile. Did you say it in your heart? If you want to surpass us, do it in your next life!

"As you all know, the current CD recording technology is very mature. The VCD recording technology also evolved from the CD technology, but the DVD recording technology is still very different from it. At present, the specifications of DVD, The recording standards cannot be unified. It has had a serious lagging impact on the development of the industry. What I want to do today is to unify the standards so that the industry can develop faster and better."

Representatives from other companies showed clear expressions, and they knew that Fengyu Electronics invited them to come together in order to unify standards and allow all companies to follow their Fengyu-Philip standards.

Of course this is possible, but Fengyu Electronics will also have to pay a certain amount of benefits. Otherwise they all support the other two burning standards. It's like a group of people holding them back. No matter how good Fengyu Electronics and Philips are, they can't develop at a fast pace.

"For the development of the DVD industry and our common future, we should set up an organization, an organization that we can join together and abide by certain rules. This organization, I named it DVDForum (DVD Forum or DVD Forum), Fengyu Electronics , Philips, AIWA, and Aihua Electronics are the initiators. We sincerely invite companies to join and become members. Every standard of DVD in the future requires the approval of this DVDForum. Let’s advance and retreat together!”

Feng Yu finished. But he didn't hear the applause, and he frowned in dissatisfaction.

Jiang Wanmeng understood and immediately took the lead in applauding, and then the others began to applaud. They actually don't want to applaud and set up an organization to promote standards. Where do we have standards? Aren’t the standards all yours? You co-founded this organization and recruited us as its members just to facilitate your implementation of standards, right

Feng Yu waited for a while, but still no one expressed his opinion. He asked impatiently: "Why, do you have different opinions on my proposal?"

The representative of Baodao Mingji Company raised his hand and stood up: "Mr. Feng, what is the approval process of this organization? Are there mobile approval members, or are they fixed?"

Feng Yu squinted and looked over: "Fixed + mobile model. Our four sponsoring companies naturally have fixed representative seats, and there are five mobile approval representatives, which are replaced every year. The total seats remain at nine, five of which agree. Even if it is passed, all member companies of the organization must comply.”

This organization also existed in the previous life. As the earliest and largest official organization of DVD, they were also the ones who collected patent fees from Chinese DVD manufacturers. But in the previous life, this organization was not mandatory, so there was a dispute over DVD recording standards. But now, Feng Yu is going to turn it into a compulsory organization, don’t you agree? If you are not convinced, you don’t have to join.

Four sponsoring companies? Get out of here, you! They all know that Aihua Electronics, AIWA and Fengyu Electronics are all companies owned by Feng Yu. How shameless are you to occupy three quotas by yourself? !

Including Philips, you occupy four of the nine seats. If you win over any company, you can force the implementation of standards. How can this organization be fair

Feng Yu was also deeply impressed by the Mingji Company who asked the question, because this company had successfully researched a technology in a previous life called Book Type Management. After using this technology, DVD+R/ The parameters of RW discs are changed to DVD-ROM format, and discs of different specifications can be easily read on both optical drives and DVD players, with compatibility reaching 99%.

However, this type of technology is destined to belong to Fengyu Electronics in this life, and Feng Yu has asked Jiang Wanmeng to lead people to study it. Although Feng Yu didn't know what the principle was, he stated the requirements and gave a large sum of money, which was enough for Fengyu Electronics to take a step ahead of Mingji Company and successfully develop the technology. And we need to do better, so that DVD discs of various specifications can be read by a DVD player. Only in this way can we completely break the standard dispute!

Of course, he won't say it out loud for the time being. Let Dongzhi and Sony continue to believe that their standards can replace Fengyu-Philip's standards.

After Feng Yu explained the approval process, all the company representatives stared at each other, and no one wanted to agree. But they also know that if they don't agree, they will have no chance at all and will be excluded from this circle, and they will have no chance to share the DVD cake.

Besides, even if they agree, they don’t want to be the first to express their stance. The first company to take a stand may be considered the most cowardly company. If it suffers a loss in the future, everyone will hate it and will be ostracized by the entire industry.

No one spoke, including Feng Yu. He sat on the podium and looked down at the representatives of these big companies, looking unhurried... (To be continued.)
