readx(); "Mr. Feng, why didn't you call me when you came back so that I could pick you up at the airport?" Jiang Wanmeng said with a smile.
"Stop doing this nonsense. If you can make the company's efficiency better and better, I will be very happy." Feng Yu rolled his eyes at Jiang Wanmeng. These people who came from state-owned enterprises are all so smooth.
While Li Na was taking exams these two days, Feng Yu came to Fengyu Electronics to take a look. Although he was usually managed by Jiang Wanmeng, Feng Yu wouldn't be worried if he didn't show up for a year.
Jiang Wanmeng smiled sarcastically: "We are currently studying it. The research and development of DVD has taken another step forward. It will take at most two years to ensure that DVDs can be stably mass-produced. Maybe with luck, it can be done in one year." Sometimes it is necessary to successfully develop a product. By luck.
"How much will it cost after mass production?"
"It can be controlled under 500 RMB!" Jiang Wanmeng said very proudly.
Huh? Can costs drop so much? How could Feng Yu remember that before he went abroad, the cost of VCD was more than 500 yuan
"In what aspect was there a breakthrough?"
"The main reason is that the purchase cost of components has been reduced, and the cost of body shell materials has also been reduced. We have also found cheaper substitutes for many expensive materials. This is all learned from foreign companies. .”
Jiang Wanmeng also had to admit that although they were still ahead in technology, they were still not as good as those established foreign electronics companies in some other aspects.
At first, they lowered prices so that foreign companies that bought VCD patent licenses had almost no profit. But after a while, those companies found ways to reduce costs, starting with materials.
For components with the same purpose, they find cheaper ones that can use cheap materials, and they definitely don't use expensive ones. Although the lifespan will change from 10 to 20 years to 78 years, VCD should have been replaced by DVD in 78 years. What is the use of a transitional product that may be completely eliminated in 3 to 5 years? What does it need such a long service life
Jiang Wanmeng is so regretful. Why didn't he think of this at the beginning? Some components could be replaced with ordinary ones, but he insisted on using the best. If we had used cheap ones, then the cost of a VCD could have been controlled to less than 300 yuan, and how much profit would there have been.
Fortunately, now I finally understand. At least the cost of the current super VCD can be reduced again, and the cost of producing DVDs in the future is guaranteed to be reduced a lot. This will be of great benefit to the promotion and sales of DVDs.
Only then did Feng Yu understand why VCDs in his previous life could be as cheap as three hundred yuan. It turned out that many of them were made of inferior materials. Of course, those cheap VCDs in the previous life were generally not very easy to use. Some of them were assembled with leftover materials purchased from large factories. Many of them broke after not being used for a year. He would not do that. .
"We still have to ensure the quality and don't break it after a few months of use. Are there any new features that have been developed?"
"The quality must be guaranteed, and it can be used for at least a few years. Currently, two functional technologies have matured and are preparing to launch new products. One is the memory function, which means that the player will record the time when it was last played before it was turned off, but it can only remember Live one, and the next time you play it, it will start directly from this time point. There is also a time interception function, which is to use the remote control to input the playback time, and then the video content will automatically play from the selected time point."
These two functions have also been developed, and Feng Yu is very happy, so that he can be ahead in technology for a while.
"Very good, this way our super VCD can continue to occupy the market. But that's not enough. Don't you know how to research some new functions and inventions?"
Jiang Wanmeng's eyes clicked in confusion: "What new invention?" DVD hasn't been fully studied yet, so what new thing is being developed
"What are the hottest electronic products now?" Feng Yu reminded.
"Computer? We have no experience in this at all. If we buy someone else's motherboard and assemble it, we can do it, but doesn't Lianxiang Group also have your shares?" Jiang Wanmeng didn't understand at all. Mr. Feng had to deal with it himself again. Fighting in the ring by yourself
"I didn't ask you to build a computer, but you know how to make the simplest learning machine?"
"Aren't all the learning machines produced by Aihua Xiaobawang, and our Fengyu brand is no longer available?" The sales of learning machines are also declining. Now that people have bought computers, who still buys learning machines.
The function of a computer is much more powerful than that of a learning machine, and even a computer like a computer is very cheap. Such an advanced computer only costs more than 8,000 yuan!
"I mean, move the function of the learning machine to our super VCD. Do you understand this time?" Feng Yu gave Jiang Wanmeng a "you are so stupid" look.
"Move the function of the learning machine to the Super VCD? How can we move it? Do we add a new motherboard to the Super VCD?" Jiang Wanmeng murmured.
"Why not? Let me ask you, if this super VCD can also be used by children to learn typing and play games, do you think it will further stimulate sales?"
"It should be possible. In this way, the functions of the two products can be integrated together. It is more cost-effective than buying two products separately, and it does not take up more space. But no one does this?"
"When we were making VCDs, no one had done this before. I have what others don't have, and I have what others have. This is the knowledge that businessmen in ancient times knew." Feng Yu shook his head as he spoke, looking very disappointed. look.
"How do we make the game? We can't have a slot for inserting cassettes on the VCD, right?"
"Do you know about computer games? How do other people read them?"
"Use a CD. I understand, you mean, store the game on a CD! Then you only need to get the interfaces for two game controllers. The body will not become much larger, and the appearance does not need to be changed. Feng Boss, you are such a genius!”
Feng Yu looked sideways at Jiang Wanmeng, do you even need to say this? Lao Jiang can't say anything technically, but his thinking is still not flexible and open enough, at least far worse than Zong Qingxian's.
Look at Zong Qingxian. After acquiring Xizhilang Jelly, he continued to develop pulp jelly and developed a new product. When this new product was launched on the market, it quickly received a warm welcome from consumers.
This new product jelly is called AD calcium jelly!
Water-soluble vitamins A, D and calcium are added to the jelly. There is no special change in the taste, but it becomes nutritious.
When parents choose food for their children, they pay great attention to nutrition. Why do some parents not let their children eat snacks? They think they are not nutritious and will affect their physical development. Since its launch, this AD calcium jelly has become the most popular among parents and its sales are very hot, quickly leaving other jelly products behind.
Someone once said that if any two seemingly unrelated things can be combined, it is a new invention. Many of Lehaha's products are like this.
For example, tea drinks are a combination of tea and sweet drinks. There is also AD calcium milk, which combines ordinary yogurt with nutrients such as vitamins and calcium. Refreshing series of carbonated drinks are ordinary soda + fruity compounds.
Each of these "small innovations" has brought huge profits to Lehaha. Now Lehaha has grown into the top food company in the country, and its sales and profits have also caught up with Jianlibao. Zong Qingxian's next step The goal is to leave Jianlibao behind!
"Mr. Feng, this game VCD needs to be cooperated with Aihua Xiaobawang Company. Please say hello over there." Jiang Wanmeng said.
"I understand, someone will contact you later. Remember, you have to be open-minded!" (To be continued.)
