Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology
Chapter 203: Isn't 512 trillion MP three delicious?
After the news report of "Southern Weekly", many media hoped that Changtian Technology would reply to relevant reports.
"Nanfang Evening News" even sent reporters to Jiangzhou, hoping to interview relevant personnel of Changtian Technology and ask in detail whether carbon crystal storage involves plagiarism and whether its technology is authentic.
The call also came to Wang Xiang.
"Hello, Mr. Wang, I'm Yue Gao, a reporter from the Southern Evening News. Can I interview you about carbon crystal storage."
This is Wang Xiang's personal mobile phone. He didn't know when his personal mobile phone number was leaked.
However, under Chen Xiao's instruction, Wang Xiang did not answer any questions from the former reporter.
"Sorry, we do not respond to press comments."
Yue Gao: "Does this mean that Chengxin Technology does not deny the news we reported? Does your company's carbon crystal storage technology really come from the Stanford University Physics Laboratory?"
Wang Xiang didn't want to answer the reporter's harassing interview at all.
He just hung up his phone.
Southern Evening News and Southern Weekly are a media organization.
One report, one follow-up interview.
This media, which is very influential in Xia Kingdom, is indeed very slippery.
In response to these mentally handicapped questions, Wang Xiang really did not want to answer.
If the Stanford University Physics Laboratory really developed carbon crystal storage, what about things?
More than 10 years, there should be a total of one sample, right?
Such a simple question, in fact, reporters should know the answer as long as they think about it.
But obviously, I don't know whether it is because of the influence of capital or because of the needs of news and public opinion. These reporters have no brains.
Sure enough, on the second day after Wang Xiang refused to answer, the Southern Evening News published relevant news about Changtian Technology's carbon crystal storage.
The newspaper reported that Changtian Technology acquiesced that the related technology of carbon crystal storage came from the Stanford University Physics Laboratory.
Seeing such a report, Wang Xiang was also speechless.
I felt that I was being tricked by reporters, and silence was actually considered to be the default.
Wang Xiang immediately convened an all staff meeting, demanding that at this critical moment, all employees of Changtian Technology must refuse the reporter's interview, let alone express their opinions arbitrarily.
The attitude of Changtian Technology's refusal to answer made media reporters even more speculated.
There are different opinions about the origin and primary inventor of carbon crystal storage.
…
The lawsuit between Shenzhen Stock Exchange and Netac has been completed, and Changtian Technology lost the lawsuit. In addition, Changtian Technology also needs to compensate Netac for the corresponding patent royalties.
This cost is not a lot, it is an increase in the cost of Lingyue MP3.
But after the Spring Festival, Changtian Technology has no way to purchase flash memory chips from Toshiba.
The entire industry is waiting for the trend of Changtian Technology, and of course Netac is the most anxious.
Deng Yun looked at the three magazines and newspapers on the table. It stands to reason that the public opinion environment at home and abroad is not good for Lingyue, but Deng Yun still has some anxiety in his heart.
Both the "New York Times" and "Southern Weekly" mentioned that Changtian Technology's carbon crystal storage was suspected of embezzling Stanford University's academic achievements ten years ago.
However, whether or not the academic results of Stanford University on the color center of crystals ten years ago were finally applied, and what the results were, have not been mentioned.
The most serious thing now is that Changtian Technology has indeed developed carbon crystal storage with extremely fast speed and large storage space, but the research results of Stanford University are ten years old. What about products?
Deng Yun is not a fool. Articles in the New York Times and other media can deceive Western readers, but they cannot deceive consumers in Xia Guo.
No matter what intellectual property rights or when the papers are published, these are not what Xiaguo consumers care about, they care about whether the products are easy to use.
Deng Yun had a vague hunch that his international business partners were not interested in Netac's survival. What they were interested in was that Changtian Technology should not touch their interests.
These people even wish that Netac was dead, and the flash memory patent was directly acquired by a Western company without paying the patent fee.
The sales data before and after the Spring Festival were placed in front of Deng Yun, who looked at the data in a mess.
Deng Yun originally expected that Lingyue could not purchase Toshiba's flash memory, then Lingyue's sales would be blocked, but Netac MP3 sales would increase, but in fact, during the period around the Spring Festival, Netac MP3 sales did not increase.
Is it because everyone's desire to consume has decreased around the Spring Festival?
This is not the case, other brands of MP3 are still making great progress.
The door of the office was knocked, and the assistant walked in with the latest information about Changtian Technology.
"On the fifteenth day of the first month, Lingyue, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology, will launch a 512M carbon crystal storage version of MP3. Around 399 yuan."
Deng Yun's heart was stunned, and the public opinion condemned it. It is completely reasonable and legal for Changtian Technology to still sell Lingyue MP3s using stock chips at this time.
If the price of MP3 using slc chip is reduced to 399 yuan, then Netac will definitely not survive.
Deng Yun sat paralyzed on the sofa, an idea he had now sprouted.
Spin off the company's MP3 business, or even give up the MP3 business.
After investing tens of millions of RMB, Deng Yun was also quite speechless.
There is not much time left for Deng Yun. Netac will seek the third round of financing in June, and will even seek to list on Nasdaq.
If there is a negative growth project such as MP3, the company's image will suffer a major blow, and it will also affect the outcome of the third round of financing.
Deng Yun asked the company's financial director to obtain the company's financial data after Netac entered the MP3 game.
Really a piece of chicken feathers.
Serious loss.
After the Spring Festival, the first item that Deng Yun led the high-level meeting was to suspend the investment in Netac MP3.
Timely stop loss is also the wisdom that entrepreneurs need.
Seeing that the boss stopped the Netac MP3 project, the whole company breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, this project has not made a dime since its inception, and the loss has reached tens of millions.
In addition to those dirty things that Netac reached with Sony and Toshiba, Netac's actual loss is more than this amount of money.
After Deng Yun signed it, he returned to the office very depressed.
And Chen Wei, the vice president in charge of MP3 production and sales, sat down in a chair with no strength.
The secretary came over and handed Chen Wei a bottle of mineral water.
Chen Wei nodded, took the mineral water, and complained, "Before the Spring Festival, we tried our best to fight a lawsuit, and it took a long time to fight a chicken feather."
"We won the lawsuit, but what about the product?" Chen Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly. Today, he finally learned what it means that your victory does not mean your final victory.
The matter was not over yet, the next day the company gave Chen Wei a serious warning at the board of directors, and deducted the bonus for the whole year of 2001.
The reason is that Chen Wei made a wrong decision on the company's MP3 project, which caused the company to suffer huge losses.
This result made Chen Wei unacceptable, but there was nothing he could do.
Investment failure always requires people to take responsibility, it is impossible to let the boss take responsibility.
Chen Wei incarnates as the man who takes the blame.
Netac's suspension of the MP3 project was reported by major national media.
Especially in the computer and electronic products industry, the people involved were even more shocked.
Vigorously won the lawsuit, and then stopped the project that he had invested heavily in.
Everyone doesn't know that Netac has worked so hard to play such a circle, how can he lose himself?
After the news that Netac stopped the research and development of MP3 products, Lingyue launched the first generation of carbon crystal storage MP3.
The MP3 will be lighter and smaller than the previous one.
After all, using carbon crystal storage and lithium batteries, Lingyue can make MP3s as small as possible.
This is the first company in the world to make MP3 a street fashion item.
In the first cooperation with Lingyue Company. Guomei Mall has already tasted the sweetness, so after the 512-megabyte MP3 was released this time, Guomei malls in various places quickly contacted Lingyue Company to purchase Lingyue MP3 in large quantities.
Also subject to production capacity, the total number of Lingyue MP3s in this batch is less than 10,000 units.
Before and after the Lantern Festival, promotional posters of Lingyue MP3 appeared in Guomei stores all over the country.
Larger capacity, lighter weight, thinner volume and longer battery life have become the advertising slogans of the new generation of Lingyue MP3.
No delays, no excuses.
Changtian Technology simply ignored the pressure of public opinion, as well as doubts from the academic circles about its company's use of Stanford University's research results. A new generation of application products of carbon crystal storage was launched directly.
512 megabytes of MP3, just this slogan is enough to attract the attention of consumers and public opinion.
At present, the MP3 with the largest capacity in the world is only 256 megabytes, and Lingyue directly doubled its capacity this time.
How many songs can be played in 512 MB?
About 150 songs can be played, which is equivalent to 15 CDs or 15 tapes.
This is definitely a revolutionary product.
Xinlang Technology and BBS of related electronic consumer products have paid great attention.
Xinlang Technology even directly reported: "The release of Lingyue 512 MB MP3~www.readwn.com~ indicates that Xia Guo's MP3 industry and technology have surpassed technology giants such as Sony and Samsung."
Yanjing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and other first- and second-tier cities, before the latest Lingyue MP3 was officially sold. Many consumers have already visited the chain stores of Guomei to inquire about the release time and price.
There are even some eager young consumers who are willing to pay a certain amount of deposit, hoping to get the supply on time.
Society and economy are developing, and electronic consumer products like MP3 will surely be welcomed by more and more consumers.
Chen Xiao is not worried about the sales of Lingyue MP3, but what Chen Xiao is most worried about is production capacity.
At present, carbon crystal storage must not meet the requirements of mass production.
Without mass production, it is impossible to earn enough influence, and it is impossible to upgrade the industry.
Chen Xiao made a detailed list of equipment and raw materials required for the upgrade project of the carbon crystal storage production line.
It's not that I don't know, it's a shock.
If the monthly output of carbon crystal storage is to reach 10,000 pieces and the annual output to reach more than 120,000 pieces, then the upgrade cost of the entire equipment is about 20 million RMB.
Chen Xiao suddenly felt poor.
