Chapter 44 (1/2)
After being teased by the boss's wife in the pink restaurant, baozixuan returned to the company with everyone. Except for the five people who came from Xiangjiang first, others lived in the community opposite the company.
After a simple wash, baozixuan began to write a research and development plan for the walkman. He was ready to prepare more while he didn't have to go to the basic course of mechanical manufacturing tomorrow morning. He could be exempted from repair. We should hold a meeting with the hardware department to complete the research and development of the Walkman as soon as possible. And not only to be practical, but also to be fashionable. It seems that we need to find a fashion designer to cooperate with our shape design.
It is a reduced version of the recorder. It is a machine that records the sound for repeated playback. It should take the magnetic material as the carrier and use the remanence characteristics of the magnetic material to record the sound signal on the carrier. It should have the playback function. Most of them use a box of test tapes for playback and recording.
It is mainly composed of microphone, tape, recording head, amplification circuit, loudspeaker, transmission mechanism and other components. And to develop a headset for the Walkman, the sound quality effect must be better. The control of the software part is very simple, and the control chip is not very complex. You can do it alone.
The next morning, in the conference room of black cloud's North America branch.
Baozixuan sat at the top, looked at the following eight hardware engineers and said, ”I know that everyone has been basically cooperating with the R & D of game consoles in Xiangjiang headquarters recently. The plan over there can be completed step by step. Therefore, I hope our North American branch can do some things by relying on the rich human resources here.”
After that, he sent the drawings outlined last night to everyone, ”our North American branch will develop our own product before Christmas this year, that is, portable tape recorder. I named him listening with sound.”
The patents of the recorder are basically in the hands of Philips in the Netherlands. Gucheng Jun has to work hard. We have to get his patent authorization. You leave tomorrow and contact lawyer Larry Brown to arrange someone to go with you. Even if you pay a little more dollars, you will bring back the patents I need.
Koichiro Gucheng's recent work interest is not very high. After all, Hashimoto, who came to the United States with him, has been reused. Although he is the head of the U.S. branch of the hardware development department, he is more for the purchase of equipment and components needed by Xiangjiang branch. Make yourself like a purchasing manager, not an engineering master. At this time, when I heard that I finally had a chance to play, I happily agreed, thinking that I must do things well.
After explaining the R & D work of the Walkman, baozixuan will go back to MIT to find his roommate Thomas Mar to cooperate with him. At present, when the black cloud R & D team develops it, I'm afraid Sony's Walkman has been bought all over the street. Only relying on the strong scientific research reserves of MIT can he have the confidence to develop the product before Christmas.
After returning to the dormitory at noon, I saw that Thomas Mar hadn't come back. It seems that the boy has gone to pick up girls again. I can only come back to him in the evening!
In the afternoon, there was a course on CNC machine tools. Baozixuan had finished all his credits, but he thought that if he wanted to listen with the sound, he must have his own CNC machine tools to see how to use the school's resources to improve his company's equipment. When he thought of this, he did not hesitate to pick up his backpack and go to the laboratory of CNC machine tools.
When Bao Zixuan came to the laboratory, people, including professors, were stunned. After all, many students will not take this class again after their credits have been completed. MIT studies are very important.
This class is taught by Professor bruman. He has never left MIT's absolute authority on CNC machine tools in his life. He likes baozixuan, a student who is particularly proficient in computer and mechanical manufacturing. Especially after his industrial 4.0 paper described the great role of CNC machine tools, this major has become the most popular major, and many students choose elective courses.
Looking at Bao Zixuan, ”Why are you here? I gave you credits! Bao, thanks to you, there are many students now, but there is no machine tool to do experiments for you. ” Professor bruman said to Bao Zixuan with a smile.
When many students taking this major heard that this was the top steamed stuffed bun Xuan in front of them, they cheered spontaneously. In particular, many girls are asking baozixuan for advice regardless of their image.
Professor bruman told the students to keep quiet before they started the new class.
