readx(); Back then, aiwa was behind the scenes, causing the cooperation between Nintendo and Sony to break up. Then Sony began to develop PS game consoles, while Nintendo had a short-term cooperation with aiwa.
Although the cooperation did not last long, aiwa also obtained some information about the game console. Then those who participated in the original took this information and entered the Aihua Xiaobawang Company to continue research.
Unfortunately, the gap in technical strength is still huge. Both Nintendo and Sony have launched new game consoles, and another gaming giant, Sega, has also launched a CD-ROM game console with an LCD screen. Aihua Xiaobawang is still a step behind.
Now Aihua Xiaobawang Company, whether it is a game console or a learning machine, is experiencing a serious decline in sales, and its profits are getting smaller and smaller. Later, it was transformed into an OEM factory and OEM VCD. But it's not an ordinary VCD, but a game VCD.
Later, under the leadership of Duan Yongping, he began to produce cordless phones, making huge profits at every step.
It has to be said that Duan Yongping's vision and ability are very good. Every time it seems that Aihua Little Bully is going downhill, he can always think of a new way out.
…
"Lao Duan, here you go, take a seat. It's a CD-ROM game console. Has the research been successful?"
After producing game VCDs, this technology has become simpler. It's just that there are some patent protections in it that need to be avoided, otherwise it would really be necessary to dismantle Sega or Nintendo's game consoles and imitate them, which would have been built long ago.
"Not yet. There are two technologies that we still can't get around. We are considering whether to purchase patent licenses or continue to upgrade their original technologies." Duan Yongping was also hesitant.
In fact, he has another way to make a fortune, which is to produce arcade game circuit boards, that is, arcade game cartridges. However, if he purchases the copyright, he will not make any money. But if you don't buy the copyright, it will become a pirated version, and Mr. Feng will never allow it.
Feng Yu emphasized to them more than once that when he was poor and the law was not sound, he took advantage of loopholes. But now China has begun to protect copyrights, patents, etc. You can't just think about the law protecting you but not protecting others, right? Once this kind of copyright dispute occurs, losing money is a trivial matter, but the brand will be ruined.
"It's up to you to decide how cost-effective it is. But technology research and development must keep up. You can't always rely on buying other people's patented technology to produce game consoles. In that case, all the money will be made by others." Feng Yu was a little curious. Since the research on optical disc game consoles has not been successful yet, what is Lao Duan doing today
"I understand this,
If there is no breakthrough before New Year's Day, we will buy Nintendo's technology, which is the most cost-effective. In this way, we will be able to launch a new CD-ROM game console almost two years ago. Our goal is not only for families, but also for game arcades. "
When Feng Yu heard what Duan Yongping said, he couldn't help but want to give a thumbs up.
Nowadays, game arcades are popping up in major cities. Most of those game arcades that were used for gambling have been destroyed, and their profits depend on the arcade games that teenagers like.
What is the biggest problem in operating an arcade game hall? It is that if the games are no longer fun and are played badly, the business will be much worse. Game circuit boards need to be constantly replaced. Many game halls use leasing.
One advantage of CD-ROM game consoles is that multiple games can be stored on one CD, which is the so-called all-in-one.
The optical disc game console can have its own LCD screen, but it can also be connected to a TV or arcade monitor to meet the various needs of consumers. Nintendo also has a new game console that can be used as a CD player, just to meet the needs of the market.
China now has three CD-ROM game consoles for sale, from Sega, Nintendo and Sony, all of which are 32-bit 2D games and use ordinary CD discs.
The Duan Yongping uses DVD discs, is a 64-bit game console, has larger storage capacity, and can run 3D games. He wanted to achieve it in one step and surpass those three game consoles.
Those three game consoles were all aimed at families, but Duan Yongping saw another huge market, which was game arcades. Using a CD-ROM game console can save the cost of game rentals and give customers more choices.
If all the game consoles in the arcade use his Little Overlord CD-ROM game console, and the CD-ROM player is used instead of the circuit board machine, and it can load more games and run 3D games, it will definitely be very popular with arcade hall owners.
Even if only one thousand units can be sold in one city, in five to six hundred cities, that would be a sales volume of five to six million units. Calculating the profit of one thousand yuan, the game arcade alone can make Xiaobawang five or six billion!
Arcades can also drive household consumption. This game console can sell more than one million units in China alone. After exporting overseas, you can make another amount of money.
"Lao Duan, Aihua Xiaobawang Company is so lucky to have you." Feng Yu praised sincerely.
"I am lucky to meet Mr. Feng. Mr. Feng agreed to almost every request I made. Moreover, Mr. Feng gave me a high salary and stock dividends. This is much better than when I worked for the government. It’s much better. At that time, I was equipped with a small car, but now, I can afford the top-equipped Matsue-National Olympics!" Duan Yongping sighed.
"Hahaha, Lao Duan, let's get down to business. Why did you come here?" Feng Yu asked.
Duan Yongping slapped his head: "Hey, I almost forgot about business. Mr. Feng, I was chatting with Lao Xu a few days ago. He said that Walkmans are getting harder and harder to sell. There are some Walkmans from small local manufacturers in China. Although the sound quality is It's very bad, but because it's cheap, it sells better than Aiwa's machines in those small places. The market is shrinking, and he is going to start cutting production. I have an idea, let Aihua's Walkman factory, U Kanshu (w.uuknshu) .co) produces a new product.”
Feng Yu widened his eyes and asked tentatively: "Does your new product have a repeat function?"
Duan Yongping was shocked: "Boss, have you seen it? Is it already available abroad?" △≧mio.*bi(.*)g△≧,
Feng Yucai was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue. Isn't this a repeater
In the previous life, the largest repeater brand in China was Bubu Sheng founded by Lao Duan after he left Xiaobawang. After the product was launched, a lot of followers quickly appeared. However, Bubu Sheng's repeater has become the industry leader due to its stable sound and excellent quality.
How good is this repeater? Around the turn of the millennium, annual sales could exceed 15 million units!
"I just heard, how did you come up with this?" Feng Yu asked in surprise.
"I just saw a reporter coming from Xiangjiang. When they were interviewing, they were not using a Walkman, but a little pen-like thing called a voice recorder, which could store a piece of sound and then play it back. I thought, let's love China Walkman, wasn't the original advertising slogan of Avawa Walkman, you can learn foreign languages at any time? It's useless to always learn the kind of mute English, only by reading it along, it will be effective, so this idea came up. A Walkman, with A voice recorder function is what you often call a micro-innovation."
Feng Yu gave a thumbs up: "What you said is very interesting. Go and discuss it with Xu Lihua. I support you on this project!"
