Rebirth of Cyber ​​Hegemony

Vol 3 Chapter 287: : Ipod

   "MP3?"

   Duan Yong commented for a moment: "Are you talking about Walkman?"

   "The same can be said, but it is not an ordinary Walkman."

   "Oh, I see, you are talking about a Walkman that supports MP3 format."

   "Yes, this is it."

   "This market is not big."

   Duan Yongping shook his head: "In fact, we have also launched a Walkman, but it is not selling well. As for the MP3 you mentioned, he has a great damage to the sound quality."

  MP3 is of course known to many people in later generations, but it is still a new word.

  The earliest mp3 is a high-efficiency compression technology. It can compress audio to one-tenth of its original capacity or even less through a special algorithm. However, although this technology is good, it will have a relatively large damage to the sound quality.

   Although the technology has appeared, and there are also mp3-style walkmans, but the response is not good.

   The current mainstream Walkman is either a CD player or an MD player.

   This kind of Walkman can play discs to ensure the sound effect of the audio.

   But this kind of Walkman also has disadvantages, that is, the product is too large and not easy to carry.

   So although the Walkman has been launched a long time ago, it is not selling well.

  Of course, there is also a walkman that plays tapes. This kind of product is temporarily sold because there are a relatively large number of students, and BBK also has such a product. But Duan Yongping also believes that the market will become smaller and smaller in the future.

"The small market is not because users have no demand, but because the product is not doing well. Of course, the mp3 format does detract from the sound quality, but for ordinary people, he basically can't hear it. If you ignore this, mp3 It can be completely smaller than a slap. I think this extremely convenient portability is a breakthrough."

   Chen Yu shook his head.

  The popular time of mp3 in previous life was around 2004.

   For the time being, there is no well-known and mature Walkman that supports mp3 format on the market.

   But as soon as this market opens, the mp3 market will burst out like a flash flood.

   And through mp3, Chen Yu can enter the mobile phone field more smoothly.

   So, when Duan Yongping asked, Chen Yu said mp3 directly.

   "What you said makes sense."

   Duan Yongping had no objections, but he was still not very optimistic about mp3 and said, "What do you think of the mobile phone industry?"

   "Of course the mobile phone industry is also good."

Chen Yu also nodded: "The future prospects of mobile phones as essential products for communications are visible, but the mobile phone industry is too competitive. Not to mention some international giants such as Nokia, Motorola, Sony, and Ericsson. There are also countless domestic manufacturers. Competition, now entering the mobile phone field may not be able to open up the market."

   Of course, Chen Yu said so, but he also heard that Duan Yongping seemed not interested in MP3.

   In that case, Chen Yu didn't say more.

   "This is what I worry about."

   Duan Yong is the first to comment.

   It seems that BBK’s transformation path is indeed a long way to go, and we have to continue to investigate.

   "I've been patronizing and chatting, come, let's move our chopsticks."

   Speaking of this, Duan Yongping did not talk about electronics anymore, but started chatting with Chen Yu.

   "Chen Yu, your Huanyu technology profit level is really amazing."

   "Teacher Duan, I dare not compare with your backgammon."

   "BBK is only high in sales, but the level of profitability is not as good as yours."

   "Teacher Duan is humble, the electronics manufacturing industry is the industry, we are a virtual industry, the bubble is serious. Once the market is lost, half of the money is worthless."

At this time, Ding Lei also said: "I agree with this point. Just like our online games, it’s okay to make money when online games are launched. Once they don’t make money and there is no market, there is only a bunch of code left in the entire game. , Even if you don’t squeeze, some fixed assets are worth hundreds of millions."

   "It seems that everyone is looking good to me and hello to me, come here and have a drink. Ding Lei, how about you also have a cup with Chen Yu."

   "Forget it, I won't drink with him."

   "Xiao Dingzi, you are much older than Chen Yu. That's all you can do."

   "Brother Duan, why do you call me Xiaodingzi in front of outsiders, I'm so shameless."

   Ding Lei was anxious: "Come on, Chen Yu, have a drink, have a drink, and we will continue to compete when we look back."

   "Hahaha, okay."

   Chen Yu drank it all in one fell swoop: "I don't care, whether it's a direct competition or a secret competition, I welcome it."

   "Forget it if you compete secretly, you guys are very dark."

   Ding Lei shook his head, still a little guilty about Huanyu's various ruthless tricks.

   "That's right, you two don't have any deep hatred, there is no need to do this. Have a drink today, maybe you can cooperate in the future."

   After eating a meal for more than two hours, the relationship between Chen Yu and Ding Lei has eased a lot.

   looked at the time, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, and Chen Yu was about to leave.

   "Brother Duan, just chatted casually today?"

   Seeing Chen Yu leaving, Ding Lei asked Duan Yongping.

   "What do you think I am looking for Chen Yu for?"

   "I thought you would like to have any cooperation with Chen Yu?"

   "You think too much, I just want to meet Chen Yu."

  Duan Yongping shook his head.

   Although BBK still has not found a way out, Duan Yongping also knows that this is not anxious.

   On the contrary, after meeting Chen Yu, Duan Yongping's thoughts became more active.

   Like the idea of ​​mp3.

   Although Duan Yongping is still not optimistic about mp3, the portability that Chen Yu mentioned is also a bit interesting.

   Moreover, Chen Yu is an Internet player. He is still so young and it is very rare to have such a vision.

  ……

   "Sister Fei, how is the company's situation?"

   Back to school, Chen Yu still has some obsessions with mp3.

   It’s 2002, and it’s a rush to enter the mp3 market. If you wait for a while, nothing will happen to Chen Yu.

   And Chen Yu seems to remember that Apple's iPod came out around this time.

   Also, he may cause a sensation.

   If it is not up to now, then the future layout of smart phones will have to fall behind.

   You know, Apple’s ipohne evolved from the ipod.

   Feeling anxious, Chen Yu called Zhou Yifei.

   "Call me so late?"

   "Uh, guess you shouldn't sleep yet."

   "Well, I didn't sleep, I just officially signed a contract with Nokia, and I can't fall asleep excitedly."

   "Oh, yes."

   Chen Yu was not surprised.

   Nokia and Huanyu Technology have a cooperation.

   As long as Nokia checked the shareholding situation of Lens, it is not surprising to make this decision.

   "You are not surprised at all."

   "What's so surprising, Nokia."

   "Only Nokia, President Chen, what a big tone."

   Zhou Yifei helplessly: "What do you call me, don't you care about the company's situation?"

   "I don't need to care if you have you. Calling you is another matter. In addition to cell phone glass processing, can the company make electronic products."

   "Of course it's okay, what are you going to do?"

"Walkman."

   "Okay, I'll go back to Huaqiangbei to purchase some accessories."

   "Uh...Huaqiangbei."

   Chen Yu was taken aback: "Are we assembling?"

   "Aren't electronic products just assembled?"

   Walkman technology has been very mature, Huaqiangbei is China's most famous electronic accessories wholesale base. Not to mention the accessories for the Walkman there, any accessories for electronic products can be purchased. As long as these accessories are pulled back, and then assembled and processed, it becomes a new electronic product.

   Many electronics companies started in Huaqiangbei in the past.

"All right."

   Chen Yu was speechless, but shook his head.

   If he just assembles a Walkman casually, he has no interest at all.

   "I mean, we developed a high-quality Walkman that supports mp3 format."

   "This is..."

   Zhou Yifei thought for a while, and then said: "The mp3 format is an audio format that has appeared in recent years, and it has not been fully promoted. There is not much market for such a portable player."

   Although it is a piece of mobile phone glass, it is still mixed in the electronics industry. Zhou Yifei also has a certain understanding of the mp3 that Chen Yu said.

   "Don't think about the market for now."

   "It can be done regardless of the market, but it takes time."

"how long?"

   "It doesn't take too long if you only make samples, but if you want to mass-produce, it will take at least 1 year."

   "So long?"

   "This is pretty short."

Zhou Yifei said: "The electronics industry is no better than the Internet. You can use the Internet to write code and you can go online. The electronics industry not only has to develop samples, but also has to manufacture specialized electronic components and build production lines. It is impossible for our family to complete it. There are dozens of partners alone. Furthermore, if we don’t consider the market, our partners may not ignore the market. If our order quantity is too small, they don’t even want to produce components."

   "What about buying a Walkman company?"

"the same."

   Zhou Yifei still shook his head: "At present, there are not a few companies that do mp3 format Walkman in China. It seems that there are a few foreign companies, so I don’t want to visit them abroad."

   "Okay, let's stop here today."

   Chen Yu has a headache.

   I didn't expect the hardware to be so complicated.

   really is not comparable to the Internet.

   But this is also normal.

   The Internet industry sometimes has only one idea and one idea.

   But in electronics manufacturing, not only does it have to have a mindset, it also has to open up upstream and downstream channels.

   And even if it’s all Ok, it’s not necessarily popular in the market.

   Of course, the most important thing is that Chen Yu doesn’t know much about the electronics industry.

  If you can cooperate with others, it is a good way~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but it is a pity that Duan Yongping is not interested in mp3, otherwise, he is the best partner for cooperation.

  ……

   "When did you come back?"

   "Just back."

   "Why don't you tell me."

   "Hehe, what can I say, you are so busy at work."

   "Looking at it this way, our official Duan is quite leisurely lately?"

   "It just looks leisurely."

   Duan Yongping did not stay in China for long. After meeting Chen Yu, he returned to the United States.

   Hearing his wife laugh at herself, she said: "I have been thinking about the transformation of the company these days, and I have not had any good ideas."

   "You are also in a hurry."

   "The company is so big, I can't let him go bankrupt."

   "Listen to music and relax."

   Feeling Duan Yongping's thoughts, Liu Xin took out a small and exquisite object.

   "mp3?"

   "Yes, this is the latest mp3 from Apple. He has a nice name called ipod. I just bought it."

   "My wife, I seem to have some thoughts."

"Let me see……"

   Looking at the iPod in his hand, Duan Yongping can't help but remember what Chen Yu said before.
