At that time, both Jiang Wanmeng and the province were full of confidence in Wanyan, and in order to support Wanyan to obtain funds for the national technological transformation project, Jianghuai Province also sent a provincial leader to serve as the leader of the project team.

However, Wan Yan went to the Economic and Trade Commission, the Science and Technology Commission, and the Planning Commission for a long time, but in the end, this technical transformation project was not approved and was vetoed.

Because Wanyan is not only a joint venture, but also a private enterprise, it gave 140 million yuan to a state-controlled enterprise in Jiangnan Province.

This is good, not to mention that the estimated 140 million technical transformation funds are gone, and it has delayed the golden time of Wanyan's development for two years.

Although Jianghuai Province has not given up on Wanyan, in addition to financially supporting Wanyan, on the other hand, it has also actively introduced enterprises in the province to hold Wanyan.

However, at that time, only a very small number of large enterprises in Jianghuai Province were able to come up with tens of millions of yuan at once, and Jianghuai Province was simply unable to provide Wanyan with sufficient development funds.

Moreover, as the so-called success is also Xiao He defeat, Jianghuai Province has an indelible responsibility for the decline of Wan Yan while supporting Wan Yan.

At that time, many domestic and foreign enterprises extended olive branches to Wanyan, including some companies in the Netherlands Philips and Dongwei, as well as Changhong in China.

Changhong not only asked for a controlling stake, but also asked Wan Yan to register in Tianfu Province, which is equivalent to saying that Wan Yan would take Wan Yan away, and Jianghuai Province naturally did not agree, so all kinds of holding cases could only be shelved.

In other words, Jianghuai Province could neither provide funds for Wan Yan nor let Wan Yan go.

Therefore, in two or three years, Wanyan has always faced financial difficulties.

At this time, companies like Aiduo, Xinke, and BBK have begun to rise, but the monthly output of Wanyan VCD has only increased from 1,000 units in 1993 to 2,000 units in 1995, and even the output of any town in the Pearl River Delta cannot be compared.

And Wan Yan also encountered a problem in Jianghuai Province, that is, supporting enterprises can not keep up, most of the supporting enterprises of VCD are in Lingnan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Wan Yan once wanted to cultivate forty related supporting enterprises in Jianghuai Province, but without exception failed.

In addition, there is another problem, Jianghuai Province is located inland, one of the six central provinces, and there is no port, which is a big disadvantage in terms of transportation.

For example, for Philips' movement, it takes 49 days for Wanyan to transport a container from Pengcheng to Luzhou, that is to say, the VCD produced in Lingnan has been listed, and Wanyan's movement has just arrived in Luzhou.

It is precisely because of these reasons that Wan Yan can only choose to leave the R&D center in Jianghuai Province in the end, and the production of the enterprise is arranged in Lingnan, but at this time Wan Yan is already weak and has not made any movement, and disappeared from people's sight.

It is true that Wan Yan has developed a complete VCD ecosystem from compressors, complete machines, discs, etc., and has educated users, distributors, producers and publishers to let the world know what VCD is, which is a very difficult and remarkable thing.

But after all, it is still impossible to hide that Jiang Wanmang is not qualified in business management.

And Jiang Wanmang, Fang Chen seems to have a major problem, that is, he does not pay attention to patents, Wan Yan did not apply for a patent for a VCD player, if there is this patent in hand, even if a VCD charges twenty or thirty yuan in patent fees, with the production of hundreds of millions of VCDs in the world, this money is enough to support Wanyan's development, at least not so quickly.

Since he knew these things, Fang Chen really couldn't give Jiang Wanmang more shares to them, and he couldn't hand over the company to them to manage.

Although he is a big boss, he can give advice to Jiang Wanmang and them, and even rudely interfere with the business ideas of the two, asking them to follow his ideas.

But he obviously doesn't have to worry so much, and he can find someone better than Jiang Wanmang to be the general manager of this VCD company.

So, why did he have to take care of Jiang Wanmang and them?

After a deep sigh, Fang Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "It seems that we can't reach this cooperation. ”

Although they had already guessed that there was a high probability that this would be the result, when Fang Chen said this, Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng's hearts couldn't help but quickly sink to the bottom.

They realized that from this moment on, a behemoth would stand on their opposite side and become their competitor.

"Mr. Fang, we ......"

Jiang Wanmeng wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Fang Chen.

Fang Chen waved his hand and said indifferently: "Director Jiang, don't say more, I can understand you." ”

"Besides, as the saying goes, buying and selling is not benevolent, and it is normal that there is no agreement, and it is nothing. The other two companies are developing the VCD market at the same time, which is not necessarily a bad thing, after all, the biggest problem we are facing now is that the public does not know what VCD is, and there is no supporting ecological environment, which needs to be cultivated by ourselves. ”

Unexpectedly, Fang Chen not only didn't blame them, but also was so free and easy.

Jiang Wanmang's heart, which should have been joyful, was not only a little happy, but instead of a hint of loss.

He had now realized that he was in Fang Chen's heart, and he was probably not very important, otherwise Fang Chen would not have been relieved so quickly.

Even, he thought that Fang Chen would offer better conditions to keep them,

Even if it was still impossible to reach cooperation in the end, it should be after several twists and turns that Fang Chen could only reluctantly accept that he could not cooperate now.

Jiang Wanmeng smiled wryly, "Mr. Fang's words are really to the point, and they are strategic. ”

After praising each other for two sentences, this matter was skipped, Fang Chen suddenly said: "Mr. Sun, this MPEG compressed audio and video chip, you won't get stuck with me because we are competitors in the future, right?"

Sun Yansheng paused for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Mr. Fang, you are really joking, how can I do anything about chips, as long as you place an order here, I will immediately start producing chips for you, and the price is definitely the lowest." After all, Scooper is not my own company, and I am responsible for the other shareholders and the company's more than 100 employees. ”

"That's fine, but I have a reluctant request, and I'd like to get full licensing of Scober's MPEG technology. Fang Chen said.

Sun Yansheng pondered his tone and words, and said slowly: "Mr. Fang, I don't think it seems that it is too necessary for you to obtain full authorization for MPEG technology, right?"

To be honest, he couldn't figure out why Fang Chen did this.

After all, MPEG technology is public, and the whole principle is divided into nine parts, such as the first part, the system, which describes the way in which multiple video, audio, and data basic streams are combined into transmission streams and program streams.

The second part, the video, describes the video encoding method and so on.

These can be found in academic journals.

Only companies that specifically use MPEG technology, such as movement manufacturing companies, laser head manufacturing companies, etc., need to obtain MPEG technology authorization, but only a part, not all.

And these whole machine factories are only responsible for assembling various parts, and do not involve the production and research and development of parts.

Therefore, he really didn't know what Fang Chen wanted to use MPEG technology license for, unless Fang Chen wanted to make his own movement and laser head?

That's crazy.

Anyway, he didn't plan to do this, he felt that the whole machine factory, or the research and development of the whole machine, just need to tell the supporting parts manufacturers what they need, what kind of function and size these parts should achieve.

The difficulty of the R&D of the whole machine factory should be how to perfectly integrate these hundreds of parts together and give full play to them, rather than making parts.

If he had made all the parts himself, the VCD would have been at least ten times more difficult to develop than he had anticipated.

The most important thing is that there is really no need to do this, in such a globalized, incomparably detailed era of division of labor, why do you have to build a factory to grab Philips, which has been a laser head for more than ten years, the job of a professional enterprise.

People have more than ten years of accumulation of technology, as well as skilled labor, and what do they have?

Nothing.

Therefore, he felt that Fang Chen would definitely not do this, but the more this was the case, the more he couldn't figure out why Fang Chen wanted MPEG technology licensing.

Sun Yansheng suddenly felt a cloud of mist enveloping him.

"I wanted to do a little research. Fang Chen said casually.

Sun Yansheng could naturally see Fang Chen's perfunctory meaning, but it seemed that Fang Chen had not explained such a detailed obligation to his competitor, and he couldn't ask questions.

Besides, Fang Chen insisted on sending him money, why didn't he agree.

Finally, at a price of one million US dollars, Fangchen obtained the permanent license of the current MPEG technology, and in the next three years, any update of Scober's MPEG technology needs to be provided to Fangchen for free in the first time.

After talking about everything, Jiang Wanmeng and the two said goodbye, but the expressions of the two seemed to be a little depressed.

Although it was their own choice, it was really not a happy thing for Fang Fang Chen to be such a formidable opponent.

After they went back, they had to discuss again how to quickly start the research and development of VCD, otherwise they were really worried about falling behind Fang Chen, it would be funny.

As soon as Jiang Wanmeng and the others left, Wu Maocai said in a heartfelt manner: "Ninth Master, I don't think these two people can become any climate." ”

Hearing this, the corners of Fang Chen's mouth couldn't help but curl slightly, revealing a smile.

He raised his chin and gestured: "Who do you think can become the climate, our own company is not counted, let alone other companies." ”

Needless to say, Qingtian and the company under Qingtian's name will definitely have a brilliant future, so he wants to see if Wu Maocai is talking nonsense, or if there is something in his stomach.
