Chapter 335: Baidu actually launched Tieba first

"Chen Yu, are you really sure?"

"I'm not sure I'm not going to make mp3s. ”

Chen Yu nodded affirmatively.

With the future development trend, Chen Yu believes that although the second generation of pears seems to be a transitional product, he will definitely become a very eye-catching product. At least, in Japan.

"Okay, I'll rest assured if you're sure. ”

Duan Yongping finally agreed with Chen Yu's opinion.

However, for the second generation of pears mentioned by Chen Yu, Duan Yongping also put forward his own opinions: "Japan can do this, but the domestic side should develop functions suitable for the country." ”

"Teacher Duan, you're right. ”

Duan Yongping was able to become an electronic boss in his previous life, but he didn't brag about it.

Although he was shocked by Chen Yu's creativity, he was more clear about domestic users: "Although Chinese people also like comics, they don't like it as much as the Japanese people, and we will not be too popular when we launch such a feature of comics." But we can roll out mp4 ......"

“mp4...... It's too early. ”

Duan Yong commented: "We just launched the MP3 and then developed the next generation of products, which is really fast. ”

"It's not fast. ”

Chen Yu shook his head and explained: "Mr. Duan, the update speed of electronic products is very fast, and the update speed of MP3 is even faster than any other product. You see that after the launch of our MP3, it basically affected most of the CD and tape market. In another year or two, it is estimated that CDs and tapes will no longer be sold. ”

"In addition, although the MP3 is creative, it is still a small electronic product in the end. The lifespan of small electronic products is very short, and it is very powerful to have 5 years. Even, our mp3s don't live for 5 years. ”

It's a fact.

In the previous life, MP3 only took 5 years from its launch to its explosion.

Five years later, the MP3 market quickly bottomed out, and there was no market after 2006.

It wasn't until the advent of smartphones that MP3 was basically ignored.

"What you're worried about. ”

Duan Yongping agreed with Chen Yu's view.

He was a little overlord back then, although Xiaobawang was very popular, but it was only popular for 10 years.

Later, I did VCD and some of them, and the life span was shorter, not 10 years.

As for the repeater, it has a lifespan of less than 5 years.

The current MP3, although it has just been developed, no one can predict how long this small object can live.

You also want to stretch your product line and update slowly to maximize profits, sorry, it doesn't work.

It's not that users won't accept it, it's that the market is updated too quickly.

If they don't act, their peers will.

You must know that the competition in the domestic MP3 market is much stronger than that of foreign countries.

For example, a series of MP3 products have recently emerged in China, such as Patriot and Huang Zhang's Meizu series.

In particular, Huang Zhang's Meizu series products directly hit the price of MP3 to about 200 yuan.

Some even got it directly to 198.

And, they have added a whole bunch of features to make a name for themselves in the low-to-mid market.

Although this has not affected Pear Technology for the time being, there is also great competition in the future.

"In that case, we launched MP4 in China. ”

Without much hesitation, Duan Yongping made up his mind: "By the way, Chen Yu, how do you say we should design MP4?"

At present, MP4 does not appear in the world.

The so-called mp4, to be honest, is an upgraded version of mp3, and you can even call him mp3.

It's nothing more than adding color screens, videos, and pictures.

However, although MP4 is not a new concept, how to do MP4 well is also the key.

To be honest, the manga function of the second generation of Pear in Japan actually has the function of mp4.

However, Chen Yu attaches great importance to the Japanese market, and Chen Yu attaches more importance to the domestic market.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yu said: "Theoretically, as long as MP4 is added to the color screen, the video ...... Some of these will do. However, MP4 will undoubtedly be larger than MP3, so we can add electronic dictionaries, fun games, and photo functions on top of MP4. Of course, the focus is not on functionality, the focus is on screen clarity. If you just have a color screen function, it doesn't make much sense. Since we're going to do it, we're going to be the benchmark in the industry. Achieve the ultimate ...... in screen clarity"

This is how smartphones were played in previous lives.

Don't underestimate this feature, the higher the clarity of the screen, the more attractive it will be to users.

High-resolution screens have dimensionality reduction strikes against low-resolution screens.

"Chen Yu, if you design like this, I'm afraid the cost will have to increase several times. ”

"It doesn't matter how many times the cost is doubled, we will sell it more expensive. ”

The success of pear mp3 also made Chen Yu more confident.

Whether the product sells or not depends not on whether your price is low or high, but whether your product is good or bad.

As long as it is better and more sophisticated, the more you can Pk off other products, and no matter how expensive your price is, it will be accepted.

Next, Chen Yu discussed the follow-up operations with Duan Yongping.

However, regarding processing, Chen Yu took one-third of the business.

As for the reason, BBK's temporary production capacity couldn't keep up all of a sudden, and Chen Yu said it logically.

"Mr. Duan, Chen Yu is guarding us. ”

After Chen Yu left, Jin Zhijiang, vice president of BBK, said to Duan Yongping.

"It's normal. ”

Duan Yongping didn't say anything: "All the processing of the previous cooperation is done by us, and you will also guard against it." ”

"Mr. Duan, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not. ”

"Since I've said it all, can I still let you say it?"

"Then I'll say it. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Jin Zhijiang said: "Mr. Duan, at present, in fact, we can cooperate with Huanyu Technology or not." In the future, we can do the development and processing of MP3 and MP4 by ourselves. ”

"That's why Chen Yu will guard against us. ”

Duan Yongping said solemnly: "Don't think that Huanyu Technology is just creative and nothing else, use more brains in the future, don't think about the profits in front of you." ”

......

"Chen Yu, Wu Kai has arranged it, but Wu's Electronics has lost the business of Waveguide, even if we can give him some business, they estimate that it will be enough. ”

On the way back to Shencheng, Chen Yu received a call from Zhou Yifei.

"It's okay, I have another business to do with them later. ”

"What business?"

"The second generation of pears. ”

"The second generation of pears?"

Zhou Yifei was a little strange: "Isn't the processing of the second generation of pears backgammon?"

Chen Yu and Duan Yongping cooperated to make mp3 Zhou Yifei still knows.

Not only do I know that Zhou Yifei's mobile phone glass also provides a glass panel for Pear MP3.

Regarding the cooperation between Chen Yu and Duan Yongping, Zhou Yifei is probably the one who knows better.

"Recently, our MP3 business has been relatively hot, and we have to develop new products later, and the production capacity of BBK can't keep up all of a sudden, so I took a third of the business out. ”

"You have to save Wu Kai to the end. ”

"yes, he's my senior. ”

"Less, are you guarding against Duan Yongping?"

How could Zhou Yifei not know what Chen Yu's plan was, and said with a twist.

"One mountain can't accommodate two tigers, although we have no problems cooperating for the time being, but there will definitely be problems after a long time of cooperation in the future. ”

Duan Yongping looks harmless to humans and animals, but his ability is too strong.

Chen Yu may not be able to control him.

"You think about it. ”

Zhou Yifei felt that Chen Yu was reasonable.

......

"Mr. Chen, Baidu has launched a new business. ”

As soon as he arrived in Shencheng, at this time, Zhang Jianming called Chen Yu.

Listening to the voice, it was obvious that I was in a hurry.

"What business?"

"Stick it. ”

"Ah......h

Chen Yu was dumbfounded.

My side is engaged in the paste bar business, but I didn't expect Baidu to launch the post bar in advance.

"I know, I'll go back to the office right away. ”

Hanging up the phone, Chen Yu hurriedly returned to the company.

......

"Everyone, everyone must know about Baidu's launch of the Tieba business. ”

In the company's conference room, Zhang Jianming sat in the middle and summoned Li Nan, Xie Zhenyi, and Wang Chang to come over.

Zhang Jianming's face was not very good: "It's really unfortunate, we are also engaged in similar business, how did Baidu come up with it?"

"Mr. Zhang, are you saying that we have a mole inside?"

Wang Chang said.

"There are four departments that know about this business, one is me and the other is the three of you. ”

"Mr. Zhang, the most suspicious is our YY music department. ”

In itself, this business is entrusted to Xie Zhenyi's YY music department.

Although Li Nan and Wang Chang knew, they only assisted and cooperated.

"It's not just you YY Music Department, all the departments here are suspicious, including me. ”

Zhang Jianming did not excuse himself: "From now on, all communication products in various departments, including YY, email, and even Baidu hi...... And so on. ”

"Yes. ”

Several people had solemn faces.

As soon as this kind of thing happened, everyone was uncomfortable.

On the one hand, they want to clear themselves of their responsibilities, and on the other hand, Baidu is menacing.

"Mr. Chen, you are here. ”

As soon as Zhang Jianming finished speaking, Chen Yu entered the office.

"What did you just say, how to deal with Baidu?"

Chen Yu asked.

"This ......"

Zhang Jianming shook his head.

"No, you didn't hold a meeting to deal with Baidu, so what kind of meeting?"

When is it?

Chen Yu was extremely nervous.

"Mr. Chen, we are conducting an internal self-examination. ”

Zhang Jianming whispered.

"Internal self-examination?"

Chen Yu was stunned: "Why do you want to conduct internal self-examination." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu suddenly understood.

"Oh, that's what you're talking about. ”

Chen Yu smiled dumbly.

Isn't this internal self-examination just to check whether there is a mole in the company?

But really.

On this side, Huanyu Technology is doing paste bar, but I didn't expect Baidu to launch the post bar business first.

This is something that any company would have such suspicions.

It's just that Chen Yu couldn't cry or laugh.

Normally, Baidu's Tieba business was launched in November 2003.

It's also 2003, although it hasn't been November, but with the existence of Huanyu Technology, it's normal to launch it in advance.

How can there be a mole in this?

However, Chen Yu knows it's one thing, Zhang Jianming and they don't know.

"There is no need for internal self-examination. ”

Chen Yu shook his head and said: "Baidu and our search engine are both search engines, and while doing search engines, Baidu and us want to be a media platform." However, search engines only provide search, so not only us, but also Baidu will launch more functions on top of search. For example, Baidu Music, now Baidu has launched the Tieba business, which is normal. ”

"That being said, the timing coincides with us too much. ”

Zhang Jianming still said.

"It's normal to coincide, remember our competition with QQ at that time, in fact, we have a lot of business that overlaps with QQ. For example, the group function, although we were the first to launch group chats, some of the group chat functions in QQ are even ahead of us. ”

"Mr. Chen, internal self-examination is still required. ”

"Yes. ”

Chen Yu didn't want to delve into this issue: "Self-inspection can be carried out, and of course, in the future, we can also carry out a stricter company confidentiality mechanism." But now, we should have a good discussion about how to compete with Baidu......"
