After eating breakfast, Feng Yu took a break and went to the Amazon.
After arriving at the company, Feng Yu went directly to the office of Bezos. Bezous saw Feng Yu and immediately stood up, while holding a thick file in his hand.
"Mr. Feng, you have finally arrived. Recently I have an idea, maybe we, Amazon, can make a product that changes people's reading habits!" Bezos couldn't wait to say.
Feng Yu's eyebrows pick one: "The product that changes people's reading habits? Are you talking about electronic paper books?"
Bezos’s smile froze, what, how is this possible? He hasn't said it yet. How could Feng Yu guess it all at once? !
"Mr. Feng, you, how did you know?" Bezos looked shocked.
Feng Yuxin said that this seems to be a very new thing now, but in the past life, it was not a good thing at all.
The concept of a real electric paper book in the past, or the concept of an e-reader, was proposed by Amazon. But the first ones were made by Muni, Philips and e-ink. Feng Yu has never thought of this embarrassment, so there is no reminder.
Just now, Bezous said that the product that changed people's reading habits, Feng Yucai remembered that it should be the e-reader created by Amazon. And this world Philips did not choose to cooperate with the monks and nuns, so this product, Muni is only made by himself, after the market, the response is very poor.
"Because of this thing, someone in China has already come up. Maybe you don't know, many Chinese novels are paid for reading on the Internet. It's nothing unusual. And this product, Muni has already made it. Well, I haven’t sold much in the island country, and the user feedback is not very good.
Feng Yuyi did not have any fuss, but he was very happy inside. The reason why Muni's products were not good was because e-ink technology was not good enough, but nowadays, this technology is very good.
With this product, the birth of the tablet is even closer, and this product can stimulate the consumption of e-reading and make more money for him.
Of course, it is impossible to replace traditional paper reading with e-reading, at least for a short time. Many people still like to hold books to read, like the taste of paper, and will not be able to see because there is no electricity.
Hearing Feng Yu said, Bezos seems to have been hit hard. He thought that he had come up with a wonderful idea, but he didn't expect that the Chinese people had already thought of it, and that Muni had already launched one, he didn't know.
"Mr. Feng, is it manufactured by Taihua Holding Group? Is it made by wind and rain electronics, or is it even made by the group? Can you license this technology to Amazon? We are the world's largest online book distributor, or the network. This word can also be removed. If this product is branded with Amazon, it will definitely sell better!"
"This, still in research and development, has not yet been made. How, Amazon is going to do this? You seem to be very suitable when you say this." The wind and rain electronics gave up half of the study, because they are now attacking the tablet. They think that this electronic paper book will soon be replaced by a tablet.
Bezos ecstasy: "So Mr. Feng agreed, let Amazon to develop this product?"
"Agree, why don't you agree. What you said makes sense. Amazon is the world's largest book dealer. It is really good to sell this product by Amazon. But if you develop it, you should cooperate with other companies."
"Right, you have a copy plan in your hand, show me."
Feng Yuyi reached out and Bezos quickly handed the document to Feng Yu, and also introduced this imaginary product.
There is now a technology called electronic paper and electronic ink, which was developed as a substitute for office paper.
So this product is still quite different from the tablet, but there are some things in common. Of course, you can't understand it as an oversized mp3 because the technology used is different.
And Feng Yu saw the design of this product, also has a keyboard, similar to the keyboard of the black rose phone, and has many function buttons.
This product, compared with the products that Feng Yu has seen in the past, there is still a big gap. The electronic paper books that Feng Yu saw in the past have no full keyboard, just a few buttons.
Moreover, the memory of this electronic paper book is not large, and the function is not much. According to Bezous's assumption, it is enough to be able to read the electronic paper book, and the supported reading format is limited, only txt and pdf, Bezos The idea is to develop an electronic document reading format that belongs to the Amazon.
Feng Yu looked at some, and after asking some questions about Bezos, he closed the copy.
"Bezos, the idea of this electronic paper book can be, but your idea is too limited. Yes, your design is 64m memory, enough to store hundreds of txt format electronic paper books, but this is too small. I know that you have designed to support sd card extensions, but why not just make it bigger?"
"Also, there are too few supported reading formats. You want to do your own electronic document reading format. This can be, but the first thing to do is to be compatible with other reading formats. For example, Microsoft format, even the format of Yinshan, etc. ""
"It's just a format of txt, the mobile phone can do it, and the super mp3 can do it. You just enlarge the screen and enhance the function. Why should someone else buy your product?"
"Electronic paper books, not only can be seen with the eyes, but also can be heard with the ears. Like children, many people are clearly literate, but they do not like to read fairy tales books themselves, but like parents to tell them. So this electricity Paper books, why can't you have a listening mode?"
"Since there is listening, there is a recording mode that allows parents to record some stories for their children. So this product has a headphone jack and can even be connected to a microphone."
"It's also very important. You said that this product is lighter than ordinary books, but you have designed so many buttons, it is completely redundant. Why not use touch screen technology directly? You are not equipped with a pen? Just a few A simple function button is enough. Just like the smart phone series of the wind and rain mobile phone, you can discard so many buttons, the screen can be bigger, the body can be smaller and become lighter."
"You want this product to replace the book, then you have to have the cover of the normal book, so this can also display beautiful book cover pictures, or illustrations of the novel, so this product should be able to read pictures, multiple formats image."
"In terms of reading time, this product is more energy efficient than mp3, but it is also necessary to consider reading time. It is best to keep flipping more than 10,000 pages!"
"I will make so many requests for the time being, as long as they can be solved, then this product will certainly be welcomed by the market. If you want to do it, you can entrust the wind and rain electronics and other companies to develop designs for the Amazon."
Really? That’s great, this product will definitely make our Amazon’s e-book sales go up the ladder!
