The years of red flags

The people around burst into laughter, and the old people in the research institute knew that Jiang Hua liked to be eclectic, and he liked to joke and tell jokes when he had nothing to do, and he would never let his words fall on the ground.

Someone joked, "Mr. Jiang, the red envelope must be generous, and I have to support my family, so I am looking forward to the bonus."

"You can't tell me about it. I don't care about anything now. I'm just a shriveled consultant. If you want a big red envelope, go find your boss Lu."

Jiang Hua picked up the laser disc on the machine and asked the technician, "How long can the image data be stored in this disc?"

"About seven or ten minutes."

"I can't save even one movie." Jiang Hua looked at it: "Two CDs are needed for one movie."

"That's right, but the compact disc is very portable. Compared with the video tape, this is already a great improvement."

Jiang Hua was looking at the player: "It's a little inconvenient to change another one after watching one. Can you send this CD-carrying thing to make it bigger, it can hold two to three CDs, and connect directly after one is played. one."

This is the famous function of VCD in later generations, three-disc continuous playback is the housekeeping skill of many VCD brands.

"Yeah, I'll change it now."

Jiang Hua quickly stopped him: "At first glance, you are a scientific researcher, and you don't know how to do business."

The person in charge asked puzzledly: "Boss Jiang, what do you mean?"

"This selling point can be included in the next generation of products." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "We can't just sell one machine for 20 years, and launch a new one every six months or so to add some selling points to the product. The next generation will be Add a three-disc continuous playback function, and in the next generation, you can try to add singing karaoke to it."

"Well said, as expected of our old leader, he has a long-term vision for electronic products."

The voice was familiar to Jiang Hua, and it was what Lu Xiuying said. Turning his head to look over, he saw Lu Xiuying walking towards him in a professional suit.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I was in a hurry, or I was a little slower than you." Lu Xiuying said apologetically, "I'm already on the first flight today."

"It's a good time for you to come. These subordinates of yours are going to ask you for a bonus."

Lu Xiuying said cheerfully: "Send it, definitely send it out, it must be generous. After we get this player out this time, we will definitely make a lot of money. This time we must give you a large bonus."

"Boss Jiang just named this thing VCD." The person in charge quickly said, "Huaxing VCD."

"The name is really good. It sounds catchy, and it won't be a mouthful for foreigners." Lu Xiuying nodded: "I'll ask someone to register the trademark."

"How is the factory in the special zone arranged?" Jiang Hua asked with his hands behind his back. Lu Xiuying felt in a trance as if he had returned to the time when he was Jiang Hua's assistant.

"The equipment is already being installed, and mass production can take up to half a month." Lu Xiuying replied, "The production process of this VCD is not complicated. Now my only worry is how to publicize the reputation of our products." It strikes."

"Then as soon as possible, first produce a batch of goods and stock up, and then we will go to Hollywood to hold a product launch event."

Lu Xiuying asked puzzledly: "Why do you want to hold a product launch event in Hollywood? Isn't it not possible in Xiangjiang? Why do you have to travel so far?"

"Ugly Country is now the fashion vane of the whole world, and making a name for them is tantamount to making a name for it all over the world."

"That doesn't have to go to Hollywood."

"You stupid, what does our player play? It's a movie. Where is the most popular movie in the world now? Is there any other place besides Hollywood? Xiangjiang is also far behind."

Lu Xiuying nodded in agreement, she really didn't think about it.

"By the way, there are two more things to do. Negotiate with film companies in various countries to buy a part of the film copyright and instill it into a CD as a random gift. After we sell the video recorder, we don't give them a single CD. Let them Take it home as a decoration."

Lu Xiuying nodded: "That's no problem, if you can't get too many, a few movies are still okay."

"We only produce blank discs, not instilled discs." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "So our factory also produces machines for instilling discs. In addition, we give up this part of the profits to unite more people. If we occupy With all the upstream and downstream profits here, our business will come to an end. We must not learn from Xiao Dongyang. They just want to grasp an entire industrial chain in their hands. I'm sure their semiconductor industry will one day sooner or later. It's over."

"What if other companies also want to produce such VCDs? Because our factory's production capacity is limited, it is impossible to supply the world."

Jiang Hua smiled: "Then patent authorization, they produce, we make money, it doesn't matter if it goes to sea."

Lu Xiuying said happily: "I think so too, and I have discussed it with several deputy general managers, and they also think that authorized production is a better way."

"Just make up your mind. You don't need to ask me anymore. I'm just a consultant now."

Lu Xiuying smiled and said, "It's because you are a consultant, so I want to ask you."

After the two people discussed and settled, the person in charge led them to continue walking. In a corner of the same laboratory, a researcher was holding a box in his hand and looked at Jiang Hua pitifully.

But the person in charge didn't lead Jiang Hua this way, but turned a corner and was about to walk out of the lab, and with a few more steps, he was about to walk out of the lab.

The researcher couldn't control anything else, so he stopped Jiang Hua in two steps.

"Mr. Jiang, I also designed a product myself, please give me an evaluation."

The person in charge quickly scolded: "Xiao Liu, why are you so ignorant? Boss Jiang finally came to visit. You let him look at the most important things first. Your product is not yet mature, so let's save it for the last time."

The researcher said aggrievedly: "Director, you are always fooling me, pushing today to tomorrow, tomorrow to the day after tomorrow, the things I use to design products are still leftovers from our laboratory, I just want Mr. Jiang Help me take a look and point me to a research direction, it won't take long."

Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll take a look. Director Xie, you're a bit of a blow to the enthusiasm of researchers. Since they design and make products, you can't make one thicker and one thinner."

Director Xie curled his lips and said, "It's not that I'm thick and thin, but Xiao Liu's product is a bit whimsical and unrealistic."
