Chapter 212: Technology Road

"Mr. Zhang, how should we promote this VCD player? The CCTV advertisements are not available now. Should we advertise on the local station?"
Professor Jiang was a little anxious. Tens of thousands of VCDs were piled up in the warehouse. This was because the factory didn't start work with all its strength. If it couldn't be sold, it would all fall into the hands.
Although he paid the least amount of money, he lost only hundreds of thousands of losses, but who would be willing to pay for his own efforts?
"Is the error correction function enhanced?" Zhang Yang asked back.
When the VCD disc drive of the previous life was launched, consumers were most criticized because the disc was easily scratched, which made the audio and video files inside difficult to read and easily damaged.
It took a long time for various manufacturers to improve their error correction functions. Slowly don't say that the disc has scratches, even if there is a pit, other content can be played normally.
"Some enhancements, 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 bought so many copyrights in audio and video, and we have all produced optical discs, which would not be sold. , The capital chain is about to break."
Professor Jiang actually wanted to bring VCD to the market long ago, but Zhang Yang kept saying and so on. All the game consoles with VCD discs are on the market. Why can't they still be on the market?
"I understand that since it is ready, let's go public. Distributor or agent, are you looking for it?"
"Uh~~ I haven't. I plan to send sales staff to sell everywhere. Now we don't even have an advertisement. Where are the dealers?"
Zhang Yang shook his head: "This is not enough, one is inefficient, and it is not good for management. So, I will sign a general agency contract with you to temporarily represent the sales of VCD. I will let Zhiduoxing's sales channels help you distribute VCD."
"As for the promotion of advertising, it is actually easy to solve. If Professor Jiang cooperates, I can shoot the commercial today."
...
"Welcome everyone to watch the road of science and technology. Technology, change lives. Hello everyone, I am the host Xiao Bing."
"Today's program, we are fortunate to have invited several experts and professors in the field of electronics, and asked them to explain to us how electronic products are now changing everyone's lives."
"Several good, let me introduce myself first."
"I am Jiang Wanmeng, the general manager of Wanyan Company." Jiang Wanmeng finished, and his profile was printed on the screen. There are many titles such as electronic engineer, imaging technology leader, and inventor.
In addition to an engineer here, Zhang Yang gave everything else, but you really want to be more honest, and you can't say anything wrong.
Then there is a professor at Huaqing University, whose major is electrical engineering, and indeed an expert in this field. He has also participated in some national projects.
Another is a professor of economics, the main research direction is the island economy. By studying the economic development of other countries, it provides some suggestions for the economic development of the country.
"Professor Jiang, can you tell me, what was the original intention of inventing this VCD?"
"My original intention is very simple, is to enable us to have world-leading technology in the field of consumer electronics, can bring you a better audio-visual experience, and can help our country's entire industry development and progress."
When he first got the word, Jiang Wanmeng refused. He felt that these words were a bit false, but when I did this, I just thought that this is a good application direction. Maybe I can make money. Where have I thought so much?
But after being taught by Zhang Yang, he realized that this is called human design, which makes consumers like you and like this product. You have to say that just to make money, consumers don't buy it.
So Professor Jiang began to say these words in a competitive way, and repeatedly recorded many times. Later, he believed it himself, and even wondered if he thought that way at first, but he later forgot?
...
"Eh, did you watch TV yesterday? It was a section of the program that was playing when the night was almost midnight. It was called the road of technology."
"You watched it? It said 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."
"Yeah, it also said that it was jointly developed by a professor Jiang and a Chinese-American engineer. They have the only patented technology and are currently the most advanced in the industry."
"Do you think it's a TV show? How do I look like an advertisement? It said a lot about the consumer electronics industry, but in the end it wasn't recommended VCD? Isn't that just an advertisement." Some people retorted.
"What kind of advertising is that experts and professors give lectures to everyone and tell you the future development direction of the consumer electronics industry. This product is just an example."
A few people started a lively discussion at first, and soon they became arguments, even quarrels. Many people who do not know the situation have also inquired about what is going on. Unconsciously, they also remember the three letters of VCD.
Is this VCD really better than a VCR? But looking at the price of a disc, it is much cheaper than a video tape, and it is also convenient for storage.
Someone bought a video recorder at home, and the video tape made a wall. Sometimes a movie is divided into three video tapes, even four video tapes.
Where is it like this VCD, a disc can store an hour of movies, up to two discs can be done. And the two plates are added together, and they are only put in a thin box, which is much better than the video tape storage.
At this time, the mainstream video recorders are still the ones that play videotapes. UU Reading Books www.uukanshu.com Even before Zhang Yang’s rebirth, there are still some people who have this kind of old antiques at home, maybe just for nostalgic collection.
There is also a machine called the LD DVD player. The DVD is larger, it is also laser burned, and the storage capacity is larger, but it takes up more space and the price is extremely expensive.
Both past-life video recorders and LD players were defeated by VCD. After that, VCD will develop into DVD, etc., and gradually become one of the most mainstream audio and video storage devices until it is replaced by mobile hard disk and U disk.
No technology is enduring, and even many technologies are like white horses, short-lived.
However, VCD is extremely follow-up technology. It has a golden period of at least 20 years, including before Zhang Yang’s rebirth. Although it is no longer mainstream, it has not been replaced, and there are still many applications.
It's just that these technologies in the previous life are all in the hands of the island country and some European and American companies, mainly island company. The most fundamental reason is that the domestic side does not know how to apply, promote, and protect.
Now Zhang Yang has helped Wanyan Company to protect the technology and also used it on game consoles, which has broadened the application direction of this product. The next step is to promote it.
