Chapter 182 (2/2)
In the black cloud exhibition hall, you can experience all the latest electronic products, so that you can have a new understanding of the present.
Bao Zixuan came to Jackie Ma and watched the general manager of the home appliance company guide the workers to debug the equipment. The success of this exhibition depends on whether the TV can synchronize with the speaker, which has high requirements for the household appliance department.
Steamed stuffed bun Xuan said: ”Mr. Ma, how is the equipment debugging now.”
Jackie Ma: ”Bao Sheng, the debugging has been basically completed, but the control of the last few seats is not very good. We hired people from ABC TV station as technical guidance. They are not very familiar with the new equipment. It is running in with the engineer now, but it can meet the synchronization requirements, that is, the picture has not reached the best state. At present, it is mainly for the mediation of the picture.
Jackie Ma is under great pressure now. Every subsidiary of heiyun group is making money. The income of game companies Yokai Junping and Miyamoto hat is much higher than him. The home appliance company is still eating the Walkman and razor capital left by baozixuan. He has made little achievements in other aspects, which makes him a dwarf as the general manager.
Others, such as computer companies, toy companies and cartoon companies, are better than home appliance companies. Now the Walkman competition is extremely fierce. Sony, Panasonic and Philips are all fighting a price war, making black cloud's profit very low. Fortunately, there are patent fees to collect, otherwise I really don't know if there is any profit.
Razor is a niche product, and the sales volume will not be too high. Not every man likes electric shavers, and half of women in the world don't use shaving products.
Although the technology of building a high-end TV home theater by black cloud is mainly developed by clay Freeman Laboratory of MIT, the core concept is surround stereo proposed by baozixuan. If this home appliance is well promoted, it will definitely become a standard product for wealthy families.
In order to promote success, Jackie Ma basically stays in Xiangjiang's laboratory and production workshop these days. He should fully control every detail and doesn't want any problems. This is a product related to whether heiyun home appliance company can become famous.
In this exhibition, heiyun TV has prepared six specifications of LCD TV, which can reach 60 inches at most, that is, the one behind the stage. At present, it can only be produced and assembled in the laboratory, which can not meet the mass production standard. Now it only accepts customization. Even the monthly output of heiyun group does not exceed 100 yuan. If equipped with audio, home video and other equipment, each set costs $80000.
The black cloud home video recorder is just that Sony changed its shell and brand, and paid a patent royalty of $2 million. The price quoted by Akio Morita this time is quite kind, but he has to pay Sony a royalty of $50 for each one sold. That is to say, the two companies have cooperated in many projects. In addition, there are many producers of TV recorders, otherwise Sony would not be so kind. Royalties would be so cheap.
In addition, it also brings five different specifications: 32 inch, 37 Inch, 40 inch, 45 inch and 47 inch, and the corresponding sound will be reduced in size. It can be said that this time, the home appliance department put all its treasure on LCD TV, and also focused on the promotion of home theater.
LCD TV is still in the high-tech category. Heiyun group has been increasing its investment since it purchased the patent from RCA. Now it is superior to the blue, and on the flat screen display. Baozixuan is not prepared to invest resources on a large scale. There is no need to waste time and energy on the products destined to be eliminated. The main thing to earn is hard money.
There are many products to be produced by black cloud. It is not necessary to produce low value-added products. Perhaps we can consider this aspect when building factories in the mainland in the future. There will be no such plan in Xiangjiang headquarters.
