Volume 4 Section 75 Convinced, happy

Guo Zhen was slightly moved, but the surprise in his heart was even worse.

This one is really confident.

After the signing ceremony in the morning, lunch was arranged at the Tianfu Tower of the Shanghai Hilton, where the Sichuan cuisine was praised even after 20 years, and most of the guests from Hanchuan liked Sichuan cuisine, including Sha Zhengyang and Lei Ting, so it was arranged here.

And the dinner is a buffet cocktail party, which is also arranged at Hilton.

For now, this is the famous hotel in the Jing'an area of Shanghai.

Picking up the wine glass and touching Sha Zhengyang, Guo Zhen took a sip: "Director Sha is very confident." ”

Sha Zhengyang and Guo Zhen didn't meet much before, and when the overall situation was decided, Sha Zhengyang basically did not participate in the later period, and until today's signing ceremony, Duan Yongming and Lei Ting plus Wang Shu are basically in charge.

"I believe that Mr. Guo is more confident than I am, and we will all be more and more confident. Sha Zhengyang also raised his wine glass and took a sip.

"Is it because of the MPEG decoder chip that has now entered the research and development?" Guo Zhen was a little puzzled by Sha Zhengyang's attention to MPEG decoding chips.

Yes, VCD looks like a promising new product, but from the current point of view, it is far from how big the VCD player market is as boasted by the creator Wanyan.

According to the data mastered by Guo Zhen, so far this year, the sales volume of VCD video players in the country is less than 20,000 units, and most of them are foreign brands.

This year, it is less than 20,000 units, and it will increase by 5 times next year, 100,000 units, in addition to the MPEG decoding chip that Scooper can provide, even if the decoding chip developed by Hanhai Hi-Tech Research can account for half of the market, even if a piece can be bought at the current price of Scooper's current product - 75 to 80 US dollars, 50,000 pieces are only 4 million US dollars, in addition to production costs and sales costs, the profit is estimated to be more than 20 million yuan.

It sounds like a lot, more than 20 million profits, but for investment and the next step of continued investment, it seems a little thin.

Hanhai Hi-Tech has invested as much as 150 million yuan, and soon Hanhai Hi-Tech will invest a total of 50 million yuan with Dongfanghong, Huafeng, and Zhongcheng to build a decoding chip production enterprise - Huazhong Electronics, of which in addition to Hanhai Hi-Tech invested 20 million, the other three are each 10 million.

"Not exactly, of course, I also firmly believe that MPEG decoding chips will bring huge profits to Hanhai Hi-Tech and Huazhong Electronics, but not only that, in the future, in more consumer electronics chips, Hanhai Hi-Tech will be more powerful, in the near future, Huazhong Electronics can do it first on the program-controlled switch. ”

After Duan Yongming and Sha Zhengyang discussed, Gaosheng Electronics gave up the program-controlled switch project, mainly based on technical and licensing considerations, but in the future, Huazhong Electronics will accept some technicians and workers from Gaosheng Electronics to form Huazhong, and the two companies themselves are inextricably linked.

"There is no problem with the program-controlled switch technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has handed over this part of Lenovo's personnel and technical reserves and even channels, Luo Zheng will follow up on this piece, and he will also serve as the technical vice president of Huazhong Electronics. Guo Zhen glanced at Sha Zhengyang, "I feel that you have extraordinary interest and confidence in MPEG decoding chips, but judging from the current performance of the VCD disc player market, it is difficult for me to see the highlights that support this piece, and I can't see it at all." ”

"Mr. Guo, you don't fully understand this market, our China's national conditions are special, sometimes it is like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms, I know you are not optimistic about the current VCD player market, but why do you think the VCD player is not easy to sell or can't be sold? What is the main reason?"

Sha Zhengyang wants to compare this newly appointed boss.

Guo Zhen is different from Duan Yongming, Duan Yongming himself was born in the market, and he has been playing in Nanyue for a long time and knows the market well, so it is not surprising that he can see the source of the film.

But Guo Zhen is different, she is from a technical background, of course, she has a director in management, otherwise the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Fudan would not recommend her to be the general manager, Sha Zhengyang wants to see her sense of smell and vision in terms of market prospects.

"Well, the lack of film source or content, right? This is the main reason, and the price factor also restricts people's purchasing power to a large extent. Guo Zhen replied after a little thought.

"What if these two constraints don't exist? To what extent does Mr. Guo think the VCD player market will grow? This year, less than 20,000 VCD players have been sold nationwide, but once the factors restricting their sales do not exist, what state will it break out? 1 million units or 5 million units?"

Sha Zhengyang's words did not make Guo Zhen confused, she frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Director Sha specifically mentioned our special national conditions in China just now, does it mean pirated CDs? Now that the country is working hard to join the TO, I am afraid that it will make great efforts to solve it in this regard." ”

Sha Zhengyang is still quite satisfied with Guo Zhen's sensitivity, at least people will see this, but he is too optimistic about solving the problem of piracy.

The complex business and social environment in China is completely different from that of Germany and the United States, and she underestimates the difficulty of solving the problem of piracy, even if it is a problem that cannot be solved after more than 20 years, how can it be solved by a paper ban or law?

"Mr. Guo, our country's quest to join TO is not something that can be achieved in a day or two, the West wants to get too many things, we will join eventually, but I estimate that it will not work in ten or eight years, so we don't need to consider this for the time being, and even if we join TO, but China's national conditions to solve piracy can not be completely solved in the short term, this market will continue to exist, and it will be very huge. ”

Sha Zhengyang smiled and said: "This is a sadness and regret, but from another point of view, it can indeed greatly enrich the needs of the people's lives, and for the VCD player, this is a lifesaver." ”

"If according to Director Sha's prediction, the VCD player may indeed usher in an explosion, what about the price?" Guo Zhen subconsciously asked, and then shook his head with a smile: "If the movement and the decoding chip can form a competition mechanism, it is estimated that the cost will drop quickly, and the price will also come down, which is really not a problem." ”

"Mr. Guo sees it very clearly, I can assure Mr. Guo that the content is the source of the film, and soon the situation will be clear, Duan always comes from Nanyue, he has a lot of friends in Nanyue, and he is very well-informed, as far as he knows, there are many disc laminating production lines in the construction and transformation, and it is estimated that soon this market will be completely reversed, far from Wan Yan's kind of spending money to buy and drink comparable. ”

Sha Zhengyang's very positive attitude surprised Guo Zhen, she thought for a while before saying: "If this is the case, then Hanhai Hi-Tech really needs to speed up the progress of research and development, and Huazhong Electronics also needs to speed up the progress of construction." ”

"There is no problem with the construction progress of Huazhong Electronics, Wanzhou has begun to prepare, the key is the research of Hanhai Hi-Tech, although there are some preparations, but after all, it is a new product, which requires a process. Sha Zhengyang smiled, "The sooner it is developed, the sooner we can end the Americans' exclusive wealth in our country, and we can also join in." ”

"Director Sha, it's okay to end the monopoly of the Americans, but Hanhai Hi-Tech has invested so much, we also need to make money. Guo Zhen has already begun to enter the role, "You can't expect us Hanhai Hi-Tech and Huazhong Electronics to be philanthropists." ”

"Don't count on it, don't count on it, it's business, but in any case, two are better than one. Sha Zhengyang said with a smile.

"That's good. Guo Zhen asked with interest: "Does Director Sha have any expectations and suggestions for Hanhai Hi-Tech?"

"I'm not an expert in professional things, but maybe I have more news channels, like chip design, Intel and AMD are close to monopolizing the mid-to-high-end under the complex instruction set, but my personal opinion, with the gradual rise of mobile communications, the chip design under the reduced instruction set will gradually rise, like ARM's external authorization is very broad, I think Hanhai Hi-Tech may wish to start preparing in advance in this regard. ”

Noticing that Guo Zhen listened very carefully, Sha Zhengyang further expressed his attitude.

"I'm thinking that Dongfanghong, Huafeng and Gaosheng injected 100 million yuan, maybe they can continue to increase capital in the future, and they are more optimistic about the long-term prospects rather than short-term interests, which please believe that we are not short-sighted people, profit source channels are important, but there is no need to rush for a while, we are very patient, we want more ......"

At the end of the reception, Guo Zhendu was still deeply puzzled and touched, she did not expect that this guy, who is said to be a graduate of the Chinese Department of Hanchuan University, actually has such a deep understanding of the chip field, and is not even inferior to her technical background.

He even discussed with himself the development trend of the Internet network in the future, talked about the 64K international special line of China's national computer and network facilities project developed by the Computer Network Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in April, and made an extremely astonishing prediction and judgment on the prospects of the Internet network.

Guo Zhen can't imagine how this liberal arts student can be so familiar with the development trend of IT technology and Internet networks, and what he talks about is by no means a mouthful, but insightful, even if some of them sound a little incredible now, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that what he said is not impossible.

If Sha Zhengyang knew that his insights could make this professional woman who was once in charge of AMD Greater China and Motorola Research Institute in her previous life, and a well-known professional in the IT industry, so emotional, but he could only answer in his heart, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really not trying to show off, it's just a bit of a play.
