Chapter 123 Berlin Consumer Electronics Exhibition
After communicating with Bao Zixuan that day, Yokoi Junhei returned to Xiangjiang. He wants to prepare for the release of Gameboy, this time Heiyun Group is going to release 2 new products together, preparing to sell the Gameboy handheld game console and Heiyun Vision 1100 laptop at the Consumer Electronics Exhibition in Berlin, Germany.
Heiyun Group is the most popular company in the Los Angeles Electronic Technology Show, and the booth design is indeed very advanced. The Organizing Committee of the Berlin Consumer Electronics Exhibition extended an olive branch to them, and took down the right-hand seat at the door of the Black Cloud Group regardless of cost and deposit guarantee. At the same time, there are two opportunities to use the main committee hall to hold new product recommendations, and one of them is the final finale product recommendation quota.
In fact, this is a gambling agreement signed between the Black Cloud Group and the Organizing Committee of the Berlin Consumer Electronics Exhibition, if the final recommended products of the Black Cloud can not surprise the audience, then the Black Cloud Group will not refund the $1 million deposit, this somewhat overlord clause makes other companies have nothing to say, not everyone has such courage.
A total of ten main committee halls held new product recommendation opportunities, and Heiyun Group got 2. This made many people unhappy, and they were waiting to see the Black Cloud Group jokes. I really think that I can beat the world with a few games and one or two creative products.
This time, the Gameboy handheld game console was introduced by Junhei Yokoi, which was the third new product recommendation of the main committee. After the last time the Rubik's Cube competition was exposed, Bao Zixuan's popularity increased a lot, after all, I only heard that he was young and didn't see what people looked like.
After the Rubik's Cube competition exposed Bao Zixuan's image to the public, he felt that he was not very handsome; However, after being paired with hundreds of millions of wealth, people have risen to more than one level at once.
Since Bao Zixuan has been exposed, he has not been entangled too much, so this time Heiyun Vision 1100 laptop he wants to personally introduce the product to the public.
If the introduction of a new product recommended as the finale fails, then the black cloud will not only damage the economic benefits, but also seriously damage the entire corporate image. This is a consequence that no one can afford, and Bao Zixuan finally decided to play in person, just to put pressure on himself. And let the world know that he is a genius technical boss, and then enhance the corporate image of Heiyun Group.
At the same time, compared to the owner of the company, Bao Zixuan's German level is the best, and he can quickly answer the questions of local German consumers.
International Funkausstellung Berlin, abbreviated as IFA. It is one of the largest electronics fairs in Germany and has been around since 1924. It was held every two years after World War II. It is also the world's largest consumer electronics exhibition, and the growing number of exhibitors and visitors as well as the ever-increasing level of participation make the show the most important market for information exchange and a platform for understanding development consulting in the consumer electronics industry.
Different from the Los Angeles Electronic Technology Exhibition, the Berlin Consumer Electronics Exhibition pays more attention to consumer electronic products such as home appliances, communication equipment, electronic components, kitchen utensils and parts, and is the world's earliest, most authoritative and most influential electronic products exhibition.
This time, the Heiyun Group will set off from two places, Yokoi Junhei will take the employees of the Xiangjiang Heiyun Game Company and the Home Appliance Company from Xiangjiang, and Bao Zixuan will take the personnel of the Heiyun Computer Company from the United States directly to Berlin.
This time, Heiyun Household Appliances is not exactly here to make soy sauce, after the introduction of part of the shaver patent from Philips. Bao Zixuan combined the experience of later generations to draw 2 different razors, one is a floating 3-blade razor, and named Heiyun TX3001 men's shaver, which is a patented technology of Philips in the 90s. Now that the Black Cloud Group has used it in advance, it is not a complicated thing after all, and it can be said to be very simple in terms of technology.
One is a semi-floating 2-blade razor, named Black Cloud TX2001 Men's Shaver. This is also a Philips patent. In the future, Philips will have to pay patent fees to Heiyun if it wants to produce similar products.
These two razors, one with a high configuration and the other with a low configuration, are suitable for most men. There is also a certain difference in price, so that customers can choose from two price points.
As for Heiyun's acquisition of Panasonic refrigerators and air conditioners, it is still in the research and development stage, and the home appliance technology has not yet been fully understood. Now it's really uncomfortable to go to the same PK with Panasonic!
The Walkman has added 2 more products, and some local upgrades have also been made. However, this Berlin consumer electronics exhibition must be an exhibition of the Walkman's explosion, and the Black Cloud Group does not have much hope for the Walkman's newspaper.
Sony, Panasonic, and Philips have all obtained patent authorizations from Heiyun, with the technical reserves of these companies. After half a year of research and development, the product can already reach mass production, after all, it is not too technical product, as for why it is not on sale, it may be holding back the big move and preparing to release it at the exhibition!
In fact, when Bao Zixuan exchanged the Walkman license for the required patents and technologies, he had long thought that the sales of the Walkman would definitely be affected in the future. He has already prepared for the price reduction of new products, and the prices of the two styles he exhibited this time are all cost-effective styles, just to fight with several other companies.
This time, there are very few products that Black Cloud came to participate in the exhibition, only Gameboy handheld game consoles, Walkmans, razors, arcade machines, and laptops. This is a consumer electronics exhibition, and there is no way to participate in the exhibition like those machinery and equipment. After all, this is Germany, the world's first finishing manufacturing powerhouse, and there is a special machinery and equipment exhibition in Munich.
Bao Zixuan has now entered the code farmer work mode when he first started his business, and he wants to write a simplified version of Wubi typing. The traditional Chinese version has been written. The two versions are just a little different in the roots, which is quite simple for him.
The Black Cloud Vision 1100 laptop is equipped with the latest version of the Black Cloud Windows 1.0 system and is equipped with an external mouse excuse. In order to facilitate the use of Chinese people, there are also two sets of built-in five-stroke input methods. At the same time, the black cloud office software is also a random standard software.
In fact, engineers have different ideas in the area of external mouse, they think it is useless, and it will increase a lot of costs, but Bao Zixuan is willing to have an external mouse interface.
And also added the projection equipment interface,Under his proposal, PPT software has been implanted in the computer。 This makes this Phantom 1100 laptop can meet most of the office needs of this era.
The idea of the engineers was that it was not necessary, and that they were faster and more convenient to operate with a keyboard than with a mouse. However, Bao Zixuan knows that compared to computer engineers, the mouse is useless, but the customer base of the computer should gradually be oriented to the public, and ordinary people do not have the proficiency and flexibility of computer engineers to operate computers.
If you just consider computer engineers, then the Vision 1100 will definitely not be able to buy a few, after all, the high cost is unacceptable to ordinary people. Bao Zixuan hopes to get some business tycoons to buy Heiyun laptop products, telling them that as long as a floppy disk can view the company's data information at any time.
After everything was prepared, Yokoi Junpei set off from Xiangjiang with a team of 22 people. There are relatively few people on Bao Zixuan's side, only 8 people. After all, the U.S. branch only had one laptop at the show. And it's also a very expensive product, Black Cloud Vision 1100 This time it's to create a concept, just like people think of Black Cloud when they think of a Walkman.
Now when I think of laptops, I also think of Heiyun for the first time, and Heiyun Group is to be the most innovative enterprise in front of the world, which is the goal that Bao Zixuan wants to accomplish.
