"Mr. Zhang, how should we publicize this VCD player? The advertisements on the central station are no longer available. Why don't we advertise on the local stations?"

Professor Jiang was a little anxious. There were tens of thousands of VCDs piled up in the warehouse. This was because the factory was not working at full capacity.

Although he paid the least amount of money, and the loss was only a few hundred thousand, but who wants to waste his hard work?

"Is the error correction function enhanced?" Zhang Yang asked back.

When VCD disc players were launched in the previous life, the most criticized by consumers was that the discs were easily scratched, making it difficult to read and easily damage the audio and video files inside.

After a long period of public relations, the manufacturers have strengthened the error correction function. Slowly let alone scratches on the disc, even if there is a pit, other content can be played normally.

"It has been enhanced, but there is still a long way to go to meet your requirements. Mr. Zhang, the VCD player must be on the market. We have purchased so many audio-visual video copyrights, and have also produced CDs. If we can't sell them , the capital chain will be broken.”

Professor Jiang actually wanted to put VCD on the market a long time ago, but Zhang Yang kept saying wait. The game consoles using VCD discs are all on the market, so why can't they still be on the market?

"I understand, since it's ready, let's go public. Dealers or agents, have you found it yet?"

"Uh~~ Not yet. I plan to send salespeople to various places to promote. Now we don't even have an advertisement. Where can we find distributors?"

Zhang Yang shook his head: "This is not acceptable. One is inefficient, and the other is not good for management. How about this, I will sign a general agency contract with you to temporarily represent the sales of VCD, and I will let the sales channel of Zhiduoxing Company help you distribute VCD."

"As for the matter of advertising promotion, it's actually easy to solve. If Professor Jiang cooperates, the commercial film can be shot today."

...

"Welcome everyone to watch the road of technology. Technology changes life. Hello everyone, I am the host Xiaobing."

"In today's program, we are honored to invite several experts and professors in the field of electronics to explain to us how electronic products have changed our lives today."

"Hi everyone, let me introduce myself first."

"I am Jiang Wanmeng, the general manager of Wanyan Company.

After Jiang Wanmeng finished speaking, his profile was displayed on the screen. There are many titles such as electronic engineer, imaging technology leader, and inventor.

Except for one engineer, Zhang Yang gave everything else here, but if you really want to be serious, you can't tell anything wrong.

Then there is a professor from Huaqing University, whose major is electronic engineering. He is indeed an expert in this field and has participated in some national-level projects.

The other is a professor of economics, whose main research direction is the economy of island countries. By studying the economic development of other countries, provide some suggestions for the economic development of the country.

"Professor Jiang, can you tell me, what is the original intention of inventing this VCD?"

"My original intention is very simple. It is to enable Huaxia to have world-leading technology in the field of consumer electronics, to bring everyone a better audio-visual experience, and to help the entire industry of our country develop and progress."

When he first got the word, Jiang Wanmeng refused. He felt that these words were a bit hypocritical. When he did this, he just thought that this was a good application direction, and it might make money. He didn't think so much.

But after being taught by Zhang Yang, he understood that this is called human design, which is to make consumers like you and this product. If you say it's just for making money, consumers won't buy it.

So Professor Jiang began to say these words competitively, and recorded them many times. Later, he believed it himself, and even wondered, did he think so at the beginning, but forgot later?

...

"Hey, did you guys watch TV yesterday? It was a program that was broadcast in the middle of the night. It was called the road to technology."

"Have you watched it too? It says there is a brand new video recorder called VCD. With a small disc, you can play movies, listen to songs, and sing along. This is equivalent to having a KTV at home." what."

"Yes, it also said that it was jointly developed by Professor Jiang and a Chinese-American engineer. They have the only patented technology, which is currently the most advanced in the industry."

"Do you think it's a TV show? Why does it look like an advertisement to me? It said a lot about the consumer electronics industry, but in the end it didn't recommend VCD? Isn't this an advertisement?" someone retorted.

"What kind of advertisement is that experts and professors give lectures and tell you the future development direction of the consumer electronics industry. This product is just an example."

Several people had a lively discussion at the beginning, but it turned into an argument or even a quarrel after a while. Many people who didn't know the situation also asked what was going on, and unknowingly, they also memorized the three letters of VCD.

Is this VCD really better than a video recorder? However, the price of a disc is much cheaper than a video tape, and it is also convenient to store.

Someone bought a video recorder at home, and the video tapes lined the wall. Sometimes a movie is divided into three video tapes, the upper, the middle, and the lower, or even four video tapes.

How is it like this VCD? One disc can store an hour of movies, and at most two discs are enough. And the two discs are put together in a thin box, which is much easier to store than video tapes.

At this time, the mainstream video recorders are still the ones that play video tapes. Even before Zhang Yang was reborn, some people had such old antiques in their homes, maybe just for nostalgic collection.

There is also a machine called LD large DVD player. The DVD is larger, it is also laser-burned, and the storage capacity is also larger, but it takes up more space and is extremely expensive.

The video recorder and LD large DVD player in the previous life are both defeated by VCD. Later, VCD will develop into DVD, etc., and gradually become one of the most mainstream audio-visual storage devices until it is replaced by mobile hard disk and U disk.

There is no technology that lasts forever, and even many technologies are fleeting and short-lived.

However, VCD and its follow-up technology have a golden period of at least 20 years, including before Zhang Yang's rebirth. Although it is no longer mainstream, it seems that it has not been replaced, and there are still many applications.

It's just that these technologies in the previous life were all in the hands of the island country and some European and American companies, mainly the island country companies. The most fundamental reason is that the domestic side does not know how to apply, do not know how to promote, and do not know how to protect.

Now Zhang Yang has helped Wanyan Company protect the technology and use it on game consoles, broadening the application direction of this product, and the next step is to promote it.
