Chapter 218: Thirty-two bit machine war begins

Zhang Yang has finished his military training and started to take classes. He also has time to go to the company to deal with some things. 35xs
The popularity of domestic learning machines continues to rise. There are many companies that join the TV learning machine and handheld learning machine to join the battlefield, but the best seller is Zhiduoxing.
The Chinese and English computer learning machines have launched the second generation of products. In fact, the main reason is that the keyboard has been upgraded, so that the keyboard is not so easy to damage, and the waterproof function has also been improved.
The learning software inside has added a few other functions, such as a notepad with simple text editing, a calculator with enhanced functions, etc. These software are actually developed for Wenquxing, but they are first launched on this.
Of course, in the learning cassette, there is also a casual puzzle zone, which contains small games such as Super Tetris, so that many children can play games without buying a game cassette.
A product has a variety of functions. Whether children use it to learn or play games, Zhang Yang doesn't care. Kids who love learning, with this, they can definitely learn something.
Those who do not like to learn, even if this is not compatible with the game cassette, they will borrow the game console to play.
In order to distinguish Zhiduoxing's Chinese and English computer learning machines from others, Duan Yongping not only worked the software, but also made another pioneering effort. This learning machine can be connected to a mouse.
The previous learning machine was either controlled with a keyboard or a handle. The developed software deliberately bypassed the function of mouse operation.
However, after adding the mouse, they also reduced the game controller to one, if you want to play for two people, then buy another one.
This small change made the sales of Zhiduoxing's 486-2 Chinese and English computer learning machine rise again, the price was higher than other learning machines, but it sold better.
The market share has just dropped below 80%, and it has risen again to 86%.
At present, there are only a few learning machine brands that can compete with Zhiduoxing. The strongest one is called Yuxing. This is a very strong company that can develop software and hardware.
"How is Zhu Weisha's contact there? Our condition, did he agree?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Mr. Zhang, I didn't do this well. Zhu Weisha refused. He wanted too many shares, 30%."
Zhang Yang had asked Duan Yongping to talk to the other party and wanted to acquire the other company's Yuxing company, but the other party's boss Zhu Weisha was also an ambitious person.
Zhu Weisha bluntly said that the learning machine was originally a product developed abroad, but it was only because of the high price and the inability of the software to adapt to the Chinese market.
A few years ago, it was popular on Treasure Island, but it soon disappeared. The main reason is that the software failed to keep up.
Experts know that the so-called computer learning machine uses an 8-bit game console CPU. The hardware technology is not high, and the gap is only in software and brand.
Yuxing’s software development is fast and has many advantages. Not to mention that their products are not unsellable, why should they sell the company to Zhiduoxing?
Zhu Weisha was also a fairly well-known figure in China's IT industry in Zhang Yang's previous life. There were once no more than five enterprises that could do hardware and software in China, including Yuxing.
In addition to the learning machine, Yuxing's products are vcds. From gaming vcds to portable vcds, they don't make much money, but definitely a lot.
Zhang Yang was very interested in Zhu Weisha, who originally wanted to merge the company of the other party and give him a share of shares to let him be responsible for learning software development. Li Junsheng focused on game development.
Since the other party refused, Zhang Yang did not mention it. It’s okay to have a competitor to make people in the company less proud and complacent, lest they think the company has no competitors.
"Yes, I know this. The second generation of learning machine and Wenquxing are selling well. These products are all done under your leadership. I am very satisfied with your work."
"Some of the problems I told you before, seize the time to improve, and the research and development direction of the second generation of Wenquxing has also been set, and we strive to launch it early next year."
Jin Yuanjian Company and others are also researching and developing handheld learning machines. In fact, there are also companies in Baodao who are researching and developing, and even already listed on the domestic market.
We must ensure that Zhiduoxing's products are better in technology and user experience than other companies' products in order to ensure market share. This product, Zhang Yang Ke does not want to use low prices as the main competitor.
Price competition often works well, but it also loses its own interests. If you can sell high prices and guarantee high profit margins, which company is willing to compete at low prices?
When Zhiduoxing first came out of the game console, there was no brand awareness, no related game cassette bonuses, and no ability to develop games. It could only expand the market at a low price.
Nowadays, the sales of old Zhiduoxing game consoles are obviously declining, and Zhang Yang is not paying much attention to it. Anyway, there are not many earning, it is better to invest more energy on more profitable products, such as Zhiduoxing g.
Zhiduoxing g, but a product that Zhang Yang attaches great importance to, currently seems to have been successful, exceeding their target expectations~EbookFREE.me~ But in the domestic market, it is not too successful.
"Mr. Zhang is assured that the second generation of Wenquxing is already under development. I have been watching the progress without problems. The software and hardware have been upgraded synchronously to ensure that our functions are the most powerful."
"When the second generation is launched, will the first generation products be cut down?"
Duan Yongping is also hesitant. If the first-generation products are reduced in price and promoted, then the sales of the second-generation products will inevitably be affected. However, if the price is not reduced, then the quantity of goods on the market must be strictly controlled. If one is not careful, it may lead to out of stock in some regions, giving other brands an opportunity.
"Reduce the price, and then increase the publicity of the functions of the second-generation products. We will use the first-generation products to compete with other products. The second-generation products will be opened up to establish a brand image."
"That repeater project, find someone to start it, right?"
"It has already started, but there are currently a few technical difficulties that are stuck, and there is a lack of equipment for the production of small recorders in the mainland. This must be imported and it is not easy to buy."
"It doesn't matter, take your time. Do your job well now. That can be launched in two years. The company keeps launching new products every year, which has always surprised consumers."
After nodding his head, Duan Yongping handed another document to Zhang Yang, "Zhang President. This is the document passed from Bingcheng Zhiduoxing. It is said to be a 32-bit game machine from companies such as nec, Sega, Suini, and Sanyo. It will be listed in these two months and has been announced."
"Going to market? This is a good thing. Then let the market check it, who's product is better."
Zhang Yang looked at the document and the battle of 32-bit game consoles was finally started!
