Chapter 807 (1/2)

It's more than 7:00 p.m. to end the cross ocean conference call with the Bubugao team on the other side of the ocean.

Chen Qing carefully reviewed today's work log and the minutes of the meeting just now, and confirmed that there was no omission. Then she motioned Lily favel, who was next to her as an assistant, to help sort out the documents.

This is a common cubicle in the corner of the staff office area on the first floor of Scomber headquarters.

Before Chen Qing's team took over, in order to save money as much as possible, more than 60 employees of scopper had been crowded in Milpitas, a small two-story office building. The first floor was the staff office area, and the second floor was mainly the laboratory where all kinds of expensive equipment and instruments were placed. Before that, only CEO Bill omela had an independent office.

Leaving the cubicle, Christina Latham, another vicarious maid, who was pulled in as an assistant, gestured to her not far from the door of the conference room to signal that everyone was there.

Most of scupper's ordinary employees have already left work, and only a few core members of Chen Qing's team and bill omela and other management are still waiting for her to hold her last summary meeting before leaving work.

I get up at five o'clock in the morning and have been busy all day. If I'm not tired, it's a lie.

However, Chen Qing's spirit is still excited.

Nodding to Christina, Chen Qing took the coffee cup next to her and walked through the office area to enter the conference room. She sat down near the door, scanned around and said directly, ”I've contacted shanjingcheng. There's plenty of office space there. We can move the company as a whole at any time. The software and hardware environment of igritte park is perfect Better than this, we can improve our work efficiency to a great extent. Bill, you can come over tomorrow and choose the right venue. This is one thing. Next, Aiman, let's talk about the company's financial situation. ”

To be exact, the plot circled by Simon in mountain view city is only an area exclusive to the headquarters of igritte company, which is called igritte park. However, during the development process, many additional office buildings planned to be leased to the surrounding enterprises of igritte company have been built in the whole area.

As a result, the area of mountain view city was gradually called igritte park.

Several of the former SGB management on the scene were looking forward to Chen Qing's words.

The move of corporate headquarters from Milpitas to mountain view city is equivalent to stepping into the core of Silicon Valley, which proves once again that westero system attaches great importance to scopper.

Today, Emmanuel Brandt, who just took the position of chairman of scopper, did not say anything different. After listening to Chen Qing, he began to introduce scopper's financial situation after today's re audit. Taking into account the remaining funds raised by last year's IPO, the upcoming $20 million loan, and part of the cash from his own business, scober's current available funds are about $33 million.

Such a sum of money is equivalent to twice the R & D cost of China Wanyan group.

Wanyan Group officially launched VCD to the market last year. Because of the dismal sales, it is actually unsustainable. Even from this year, VCD sales are rising, a large part of which is the result of other enterprises entering the market.

Scupper and Wanyan cooperated closely in the research and development of VCD. However, when Chen Qing returned to China during the new year, she went to Anhui to visit the company. The conclusion is that Wanyan group has considerable technology accumulation. Unfortunately, the product operation is in a muddle.

Moreover, this enterprise also has some state-owned background, which makes Chen Qing give up the idea of continuing to cooperate with each other. She doesn't want to be pulled back by the messy troubles in the process of promoting her plan.

In contrast, in just a few years, Chen Qing needs a team that can make XIAOBAWANG's annual revenue reach 1 billion.

At this stage of China, there is no shortage of market demand and product supply. What is really lacking is the excellent team to make the market bigger and stronger.

Therefore, looking back on the business history of China in the 1990s is often closely related to the word ”marketing”.

China's super rich people who started from scratch in the 1990s are basically marketing masters. Many of them have passed on this business gene for many years. The most typical one is the blue and green factories, which seem to be everywhere in the future. When other mobile phone manufacturers try every means to tear each other up in order to gain market share, only OV and ov have inherited their business genes for decades The old-fashioned operation method of Buddhism makes a lot of money.

33 million US dollars is enough for scober to develop a new generation of video decoder chip and upgrade the current VCD technology.

At this stage of VCD products, as the heart of the video decoder chip, only Scomber can produce, completely exclusive. Other core components such as laser reading, first-class, and so on, can be produced by Japanese and European manufacturers. The replacement is very strong. Therefore, as long as we complete the further upgrading of the video decoder chip and develop a complete VCD solution, and completely cut off the possibility of other manufacturers' follow up in the short term, the profit distribution of the VCD industry has the final say of the sopaka family.

Of course, in order not to cause the collective rebound of established manufacturers, Chen Qing still plans to purchase laser reading first-class components from Sony, Philips and other manufacturers in the future as the supporting standard of scupper. Because there is no monopoly, these manufacturers want to get more market share, can only compromise with scopper.Although his boss regards investing in the VCD industry as making a quick profit, the plan is also carried out in this way. However, with the industry advantages in hand, scober can try to continue to take a share in the DVD era in the future.

Video decoder chip is also a necessity for DVD.

After Emmanuel Brandt introduces the financial situation of SGB, Chen Qing continues to confirm the next detailed plan with everyone.

Since she has decided to abandon Wanyan, Chen Qing takes Bubugao as the key support object in the next stage.

Scupper will work closely with Bubugao to launch the first Bubugao brand VCD product based on the current video decoding chip technology in China in the next three months, so that the company can familiarize itself with the product in advance and carry out early market cultivation.

Meanwhile, scupper will immediately start the construction of a VCD component factory in China, and plan to produce CD reading system accessories with laser reading head as the core. Video decoding and optical disc reading are the two core parts of VCD products, and they are also the two most profitable parts. By the end of the year, scupper's complete machine solution will be completed, and the factory there can be put into production directly.

At that time, scupper will provide all Chinese manufacturers who are interested in entering the VCD industry with these core accessories that are already semi-finished products.

Of course, there is also the whole machine solution.

If Sony, Philips and other suppliers want to squeeze into the VCD industry chain, they also need to get scupper's consent and give up enough interests.

It can be imagined that some manufacturers will develop the same type of products in order to circumvent the monopoly of scupper on video decoding chips. However, these competitors have lagged behind for at least two years. Even the old giants like Sony, when they invest a lot of manpower and material resources to catch up with scupper, VCD is basically on the verge of elimination.

The summary meeting lasted more than an hour.

After the meeting, Chen Qing invited everyone to have dinner at a nearby restaurant. It was late at night on the west coast of the United States.

As a very sociable woman, Chen Qing has been quite familiar with some of the core westero systems in Silicon Valley in recent months, and has become good friends with C and D girls. Claire helped a lot in the last investigation of Scomber.

This time I came to San Francisco, knowing that girl C was responsible for all Simon's properties here, Chen Qing was also impolite and asked if she could borrow a place.

Claire didn't refuse and arranged it quickly.

Located in the potola Valley bordering Woodside, it occupies an entire hill top manor. The three storey stone country style villa looks like a castle.

It's a little exaggerated.

I've visited C girl's residence in Atherton. By contrast, the mansion there for ordinary people can only be described as simple and crude.

So I couldn't help calling to ask if it was suitable, and the response was no problem. My boss likes to lend the house to the women around him, which can increase her popularity. Girl c joked that as long as she doesn't bring men in, she can do whatever she wants.

Chen Qing doesn't think it's a joke at all.

However, men can't, women should have no problem.
