Chapter 448: Portable MINI

Soon, Zhao Mingsheng, vice president of Zhiduoxing Group, entered Zhang Yang's office while holding a suitcase in his hand.
"President, the samples have already been made and the final test is being done. There is only one problem, the cost cannot be reduced."
Zhao Mingsheng said while opening the box, carefully taking out a 6-inch square LCD screen from inside, and a fist-sized power transformer, which can also be used as a battery block.
Secretary Xiao Wang had already ran over to the sofa, took a GMINI and put it on Zhang Yang's table.
Zhao Mingsheng skillfully connected the line, and then put a KOF98 CD into it.
Zhang Yang took the handle that Zhao Mingsheng handed over, looked at the startup screen, and asked, "How much are the costs? Have you evaluated the market, how much sales can you expect?"
"The cost of this screen is more than one hundred and fifty dollars, and the minimum price is two hundred dollars to ensure that there will be no loss."
"This battery block costs more than one hundred dollars, and the selling price must be guaranteed to be more than one hundred and fifty dollars."
After Zhao Mingsheng finished talking, he carefully looked at Zhang Yang. The price of this peripheral is too expensive, and the screens are more than the game console, but he really can’t continue to reduce the price. It is also necessary to purchase LCD screens from abroad, because there is no domestic ability to produce such a large screen.
The technology of the battery block is okay in China, and it was made after finding cooperation with several research institutes, but the cost is still high.
So expensive, he really has no confidence in selling too much.
Zhang Yang glanced at Zhao Mingsheng: "How about sales forecast?"
Sun Tengfei took over the conversation: "President, the sales estimate is being done by the marketing department. We have calculated that these two peripherals can have a certain amount of sales in developed regions such as island countries and North America. I am afraid that there are 10,000 in the mainland. Can't sell it."
"And this was developed for MINI, Zhiduoxing G cannot be used, so according to one-tenth of MINI's household ownership, one million sales can be guaranteed, which is enough to ensure that these two products will not lose money."
With only one million sales, Zhang Yang was dissatisfied with this data.
"These two products cooperate with MINI, which is a 32-bit portable game console. Now the portable handheld is only 16-bit, and the screen is smaller than this. Are you sure that it is correct?"
"President, this battery block can only be used for two to three hours, depending on the brightness of the screen and the number of connected handles. Such a short time, the portability is not high, except for some who go out for a picnic, no one will buy this , How big is the TV screen, it is more fun to play."
Sun Tengfei did not say a word. In Europe and America, many people often travel long distances, so the handhelds are selling well and can pass the boring time.
However, although MINI is one-third smaller than Zhiduoxing G, it is still very large and not convenient to carry. Driving is okay, making a train or a plane is too much trouble.
"Is there a function to connect the car charger?"
"Have."
"That's all right. The ownership of family cars in Europe and America is very high, and there will be a lot of families who don't lose money. Tengfei, Lao Zhao, and these two products will be tested quickly. I hope that they will be launched on the market on New Year's Day. "
The game loads, and Zhang Yang is skillfully playing KOF. Although the screen is small, it is also very clear and the brightness is sufficient. The sound is a little worse, but you can connect headphones to make it clearer.
After playing a few games, Zhang Yang put down the handle: "How long can the battery block last if four handles are connected?"
"If it is four handles, plus the brightest screen, then more than one hour is OK, but it will not reach one and a half hours." Zhao Mingsheng quickly gave the answer.
Indeed, the sustainability is much worse, but there is no way.
At this time, the battery technology and other hardware technologies are far inferior to those before his rebirth. Electronic components have high energy consumption and low battery power. It is not easy to do this.
Of course, it is not impossible to continue to improve, but that size will become larger and the cost will be higher. At this price, there will not be too many people buying, if it is bigger, the price is higher, there will be fewer people buying, and the cost will not be recovered.
"What about the dance mat?"
"Ah? President, this screen is so small. I'm afraid you can't see it clearly when connected to a dance mat?" Zhao Mingsheng froze for a moment. This was not tested.
Zhang Yang put a water glass in front of the screen: "Did you see it, did you zoom in? If you put a magnifying glass in front of the screen, would the screen be doubled? How much does this magnifying glass cost?"
"You didn't expect to use the method, it doesn't mean that others didn't think about it. To do the test, you should indicate it in the manual.
An invention like screen magnifying glass, which seems useless, is actually already available in the island country, and it is not very good to sell ~EbookFREE.me~ but that is useless in the right place.
At least this can be used together with the dance mat and this portable LCD screen.
"Okay, I will arrange people to do the test." Zhao Mingsheng agreed and asked after thinking for a while, "President, there is a domestic company that makes LCD panels, and it has got the relevant technology of island countries and North American companies. In LCD panel technology In terms of island countries, it is the absolute leader, with South Korea, Treasure Island and North America second."
"What we do in China are small screens, and there is a big gap in large screens. Do we want to invest in this company? They are currently short of funds."
Zhang Yang's expression moved: "Is their technology definitely first-class? Isn't it the technology that was eliminated on the island side?"
This kind of thing is very common, because the technology is backward, so many others have eliminated the technology. Huaxia took it as a treasure, such as automobile manufacturing, machine tools, precision instruments, etc. Before Zhang Yang was reborn, the technology was still in a backward stage.
"We have received information that this technology is first-class, but raw materials and auxiliary materials need to be imported from the island market, so the right to speak is still in the hands of others."
If the price of raw materials is raised, your production costs will increase, and you will not be able to rely on low prices to open the market. From this perspective, Huaxia's joint venture has become a foundry.
"How much money do we need to invest in refining raw materials ourselves and doing LCD technology research and development ourselves?"
Zhao Mingsheng swallowed and said: "President, this is definitely not a small amount. The initial capital will be one billion US dollars, and it will definitely be a loss in the first few years. There may be many additional investments in the future. This is a capital-intensive, Technology-intensive industries."
Zhang Yang sucked his mouth. In the past two years, the money can't be opened. Do it yourself. The risk is indeed too high. Do you want to try it with someone?
