Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

Chapter 52 The advent of digital BB machines

At present, many projects of Wujiang Group are being carried out at the same time, and the funds are burning like crazy!

Wujiang Group is still just a small company with sales of only a few hundred million yuan. It is really difficult to support such a big business.

It is almost impossible to develop semiconductor production equipment now.

Ni Guangnan is indeed a technology leader who is obsessed with chip development. He recruits people, investigates the status of various domestic semiconductor industry chains, and presides over the development of "Loongson" CPU. He is too busy to touch the ground, but he enjoys it.

It was just a pain for Zhao Ye that Ni Guangnan would come to his door from time to time, either asking for money to buy equipment or urging Zhao Ye to participate in the design of Loongson, because Zhao Ye proposed a lot of feasibility analysis, such as architecture exploration, circuit design and layout, etc., and he always asked for help. Ni Guangnan was amazed.

It’s a bit unbelievable that someone in his early twenties knows so much.

But in fact, Zhao Ye is a super genius in everyone's eyes.

But Zhao Ye still has to find ways to make money, otherwise many researches will be unsustainable.

……

……

At the end of December 1984, the factory was working overtime for production, and the warehouse now has 12 digital BB machines in reserve.

Therefore, Zhao Ye decided to hold a product launch conference on January 1985, 1, and officially released the digital BB machine.

Because the last press conference of Wujiang Group was very shocking.

Therefore, this press conference attracted the attention of many media and electronics industry personnel, and it can be said that it is highly anticipated.

The night before the press conference, Zhao Ye and others tested the use of the digital BB machine again.

Zhao Ye picked up the phone and dialed the 126 paging station.

The 126 paging station was opened recently and is jointly invested by the Capital Wireless Communications Bureau and Wujiang Group, with Wujiang Group holding 49% of the shares.

It is actually relatively profitable to operate a paging station. The monthly service fee paid by BB machine users is not a small sum. But Wujiang Group does not care about this. Its main purpose is to sell BB machines.

BB machines are more profitable.

How high is it?

The price is 2500 yuan and the cost is less than 500.

The profit is four times the cost, such huge profits!

It was so cruel that the capitalists shed tears, the Jews were heartbroken, and the RB chaebol felt guilty after watching it!

"Boss, everything is normal in the test. My BB machine has received digital information - 8848." Secretary Liu Yinyin looked at the pink BB machine in her hand and said to Zhao Ye.

Zhao Ye nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.

He just called the 126 paging station and told the paging station staff the BB number he needed to contact.

The staff entered Zhao Ye's information into the computer and then sent it to Liu Yinyin's BB machine;

Liu Yinyin's BB phone quickly received the message, and she could go to a nearby phone booth and use the phone to call back to Zhao Ye.

This time it was just for testing. Zhao Ye didn't ask the other party to call back, so he just sent 8848.

8848, the height of Mount Everest, means that this Imagine-BB machine has reached the top and become the dominant player in the BB machine market!

……

It was 1985 o'clock in the morning on March 1, 1.

The Borderless press conference officially began, Zhao Ye stepped onto the stage, and everyone's eyes were instantly focused on him.

Today, Zhao Ye is still dressed in a suit and leather shoes, gentle and handsome.

"Hello everyone, welcome to attend the product launch conference of Wujiang Group. I am Zhao Ye, the boss of Wujiang Group!"

"Today, I want to introduce a product to you."

"In 1955, Motorola developed a new wireless communication product that could transmit wireless signals to a designated person. This product was a small wireless receiver for pagers. Later, with the development of technology, Motorola developed A small and lightweight pager, a small black box called a 'beeper', later referred to as a 'BP machine' or 'BB machine'."

"In 1983, BB machines began to enter China. However, BB machines at this time were relatively backward and could only passively receive a called message. If you want to find out who the caller is, you need to call the paging station and then obtain the caller's information. My phone number is very troublesome!”

Zhao Ye said as he took out a black digital BB player from his pocket.

"But it's different now. Our Wujiang Group has developed a digital BB machine with more advanced technology. The thing I'm holding in my hand is small and exquisite. It can be worn on the waist or put in a pocket. This digital BB machine , the difference from the analog BB machine is that it can receive numbers. To put it simply, the digital BB machine can directly display the caller's phone number. In this way, you no longer need to call the paging station to ask for the other party's number. Just take the BB phone to the phone booth and contact the other party."

When Zhao Ye said this, he paused, glanced at everyone, and asked with a smile, "How about, is such a digital BB machine very convenient?"

"convenient!!!"

The audience immediately responded in unison.

Some people are hearing about BB machines for the first time, but there are also many people who have been exposed to BB machines before.

But no matter which one it was, everyone was shocked after hearing Zhao Ye's introduction.

"Having a BB machine like this with me allows others to contact me at any time!" a guest said with emotion.

"I saw other people using analog BB machines in Shanghai. It was very cumbersome to use. It is really incomparable with the digital BB machine developed by Wujiang Group. This digital BB machine is so convenient. If the price is cheap, I would buy it. One..." A reporter looked at the BB camera in Zhao Ye's hand with extremely hot eyes.

"..."

At this time, Zhao Ye began to demonstrate the functions of the digital BB machine to everyone.

When finally seeing a set of numbers appear on the digital BB machine, the audience burst into warm applause.

"The Wujiang Group is awesome, this digital BB machine will definitely sell well!"

"The Wujiang Group is going crazy to make money again!"

"..."

Some people in the industry in the audience could not help but show envy.

There was a pause, and the applause died down.

Zhao Yecai continued: "This digital BB machine from Wujiang Group is called Imagine-BB Machine 1.0. The national unified retail price is only 2500 yuan. It is high-quality and low-priced, but the production volume is insufficient. If you want to buy it, hurry up!"

Just finished speaking.

The audience booed.

"It only costs 2500 yuan. It's so expensive. I can afford it!"

"Every time, they say that the production is insufficient, so if you want to buy, hurry up. This is a trick, forcing dealers to rush to place orders!"

Everyone complained.

They now know the Wujiang Group relatively well. Although the products they develop are good, they are sold at a very high price.

When Zhao Ye saw this, he couldn't help but smile. The Motomo La BB machine cost more than 2000 yuan. He really sold it cheaply this time. The domestic retail price was only 2500 yuan.

The price of the Imagine-BB machine in the United States is as high as 1500 US dollars, which is almost 3700 yuan. After all, it's not about taxes. This time, the price of Wujiang's bb machine is not low, let's see how the United States still accuses it of dumping.

At the moment, Motorola has not yet developed a digital BB machine, so I am taking advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money!

"Zhao Ye, your BB machine is too expensive, can you make it cheaper?"

At this time, a reporter suddenly couldn't help shouting that he really liked this BB machine, but the high price put him off.

Zhao Ye's expression was startled, cheap? Impossible, absolutely impossible. It took a lot of effort to set the price, how could it be easily modified?

Moreover, Motomoola's analog BB machines sell for more than 2000 yuan. Our Wujiang digital BB machines are much more advanced than them, but they only cost more than 2000 yuan. They are really not expensive.

Zhao Ye said slowly: "The production cost of this thing is quite high, and it is still considered a luxury product at this stage. However, I still recommend that everyone buy a BB machine, because it is not only convenient for people to communicate with each other, but also can be taken out It's a special face. You can imagine, you can put your BB on your waist and say domineeringly on the street: "Call me if you need anything". Look, this looks very cool..."
