Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Hello, seniors. My name is Xu Huasheng. I am honored to invite you to our Huasheng Group. On behalf of Huasheng Group, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you..."

In the conference room, when everyone was busy, Xu Huasheng came up with a smile. Many people were very curious about Xu Huasheng. However, some people knew Xu Huasheng's identity, Xu Dabao's only son, which was extraordinary.

"Everyone must be a little tired after coming from afar. So, let's watch TV and take a break..."

Xu Huasheng said with a smile, which made everyone talk about it.

What the hell is Huasheng Group doing? Did I come all the way here to watch TV? Do you know how busy we are?

There was a lot of discussion below, but Xu Huasheng didn't care about it. Instead, he asked the staff to bring up a VCD player, put the player on the TV, and quickly installed various lines.

At this time, everyone became curious. What is this thing? Why haven't I seen it before?

Xu Huasheng installed the DVD player, opened a disc and put it into the player out of curiosity.

The next scene made everyone's eyes widen. The TV actually started playing a movie. And this movie was very familiar to everyone.

Journey to the West, watching the TV series of Journey to the West on the TV, everyone started talking about it.

"What kind of equipment is that?"

"It doesn't look like a videotape..."

"Is this a new product of Huasheng Group?"

"What is this?"

Everyone started talking quietly, while Ni Feng and other TV companies' eyes lit up.

After watching for a while, Xu Huasheng pressed the pause button.

"Seniors, everyone must be very curious about this equipment, right?"

Xu Huasheng asked with a smile, and everyone looked at Xu Huasheng, waiting for his answer.

"This device is the latest product developed by our Huasheng Group. We call it a VCD player. Everyone has heard of CDs, but CDs can only play sounds. VCDs can play images. We use image compression technology to compress the film into a disc, and then decode it through this device. In this way, the image can be played on TV through this machine. Compared with traditional videotape equipment, our VCD products are more convenient and less expensive. Most importantly, we have independent intellectual property rights for this product..."

Xu Huasheng began to tell everyone about the VCD player. After listening to Xu Huasheng's story, everyone immediately started talking about it.

This product is amazing. With this device, you can watch movies and TV series at home. If you buy one at home, you will be very proud.

Many people used to watch foreign movies and saw foreigners watching movies and TV series at home with videotapes. Many people envied and yearned.

Unfortunately, there is no such industry in China. Even if you buy a device, you can't find the corresponding videotape.

"Young man, how much is the disc in your hand?"

Ni Feng suddenly asked, and his sharp eyes made Xu Huasheng laugh. He was indeed a big shot, and he saw the key at a glance.

"It's very cheap. If you buy it, it's only one or two yuan. Not only can you buy it, you can also rent it, and renting should be cheaper. As long as the VCD is released, there is no need to worry about the disc."

Xu Huasheng said with a smile.

"How much is this DVD player?"

Ni Feng continued to ask, he felt that this thing would definitely be a hot seller if the price was right.

Put it on its own sales channel and sell it together with the TV, it will definitely sell quickly. This thing is too fashionable and trendy.

"I think I need to ask you all about how much it sells..."

Xu Huasheng's words made everyone stunned, and Ni Feng also looked curious.

"The main purpose of inviting everyone here today is to promote this product. However, our Huasheng Group does not sell VCD players. We only sell important parts and provide patent authorization. Just like everyone who makes TV sets, we are the one who sells cathode ray tubes. As for how much you sell the assembled TV sets for, that is your own business. I, a cathode ray tube seller, can't control the pricing of your TV sets..."

When Xu Huasheng said this, there was an uproar at the scene, and Ni Feng was even more excited.

Such a good product, Huasheng Group actually doesn't sell it itself, is this true?

"Are you serious?"

A CEO couldn't help asking.

"Of course I'm serious, everyone. Our Huasheng Group was established not long ago. Although we have technology, we currently have neither production lines nor our own sales channels. I don't need to tell you how much money it will cost to build these things. Although our Huasheng Group is not short of money,We think it is unnecessary to do this, because we can also make money by selling technology. "

When Xu Huasheng said this, all the talents suddenly realized.

Production lines and sales channels cannot be set up in a day or two. In home appliance sales, channels are still king.

To sell products, we must not only build sales channels, but also establish after-sales services, establish a warehousing system, have our own logistics system, train employees, etc. It is very complicated.

"What's more, our Huasheng Group is positioned as a technology research and development company, not a home appliance company. In the future, our main business will also be to sell technology and core components..."

Xu Huasheng said with a smile. As soon as he said this, the crowd below became very lively.

Even Ni Feng was a little excited. He only sold technology, not products.

In this way, Changhong can also produce this VCD player, and sell it under the Changhong brand. Isn't this what he has always wanted?

Ni Feng has always wanted to expand Changhong's product categories, but there has never been a suitable opportunity. Now, Ni Feng feels that the opportunity has come.

"Everyone, here are some information about this machine. You can take a look first..."

Xu Huasheng asked the staff to distribute the information to everyone.

Many people read the information after receiving it, and so did Ni Feng.

Open the information, and the content inside is very detailed.

Including the name, structure and function of each component of the entire machine, They have written it all down clearly for you.

Not only that, the information also gives the price of some things.

For example, the core decoder is priced at 300 yuan, and the movement is priced at 150 yuan.

As for the cost of this thing, Ni Feng doesn't know, but Ni Feng knows that the core parts are definitely profitable.

Ni Feng looked at the information and calculated the cost and technical content of this machine.

Some other factories also have different ideas. Some of them, like Ni Feng, are calculating whether they can produce this DVD player. Some corporate representatives are studying what kind of parts their factories can produce, and some are calculating how much money they can make if all parts are purchased from outside and they assemble and sell products themselves.

In a word, everyone has their own thoughts at the moment, but the purpose is the same, and they are all thinking about how to make money.
