Chapter 89 Information

In the 21st century, Lin Qi actually did not have much expectations for the development of Felix Company in the world, but now that he has no intention of inserting willows and making some achievements, Lin Qi is of course happy to see it, and at the same time, he will give more support. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After all, no matter what the money of that world is, it is real money. Moreover, the companies in both worlds are cultural and creative companies, and the two have great complementarity.

Other entity types of companies are in different worlds, and it may be difficult to complement each other's resources. However, both are cultural and creative enterprises, and their main assets are embodied in creativity and intellectual property, so it is easier to complement each other. A large hard drive can even hold more than 10TB of data.

With so much information, it may be possible to put most of the representative publications of mankind into a hard disk in the form of e-books. Even if it is a movie and animation, if you don't pursue high definition, then a hard disk can fit tens of thousands of film and television animations......

Music is similar, the requirements for sound quality are average, perhaps, a hard disk can be loaded with hundreds of millions of songs, and it is more than enough to put all the songs that have been recorded into albums since the invention of human beings.

Of course, if this is done, Lin Qi will be afraid of indigestion...... Therefore, for the amount of cultural creativity, Lin Qi is very limited. More focus on technology patents that are more important than cultural creativity, because the development of creative industries such as music, movies, games, animation, etc., is increasingly inseparable from technology.

Those terminals created by technology are above artistic creation. Historically, Sony has realized this, so it has invested a lot of capital in music players, televisions, video recorders, game consoles, handhelds, DVDs, and so on. The success of these technologies and products has pushed Sony to the altar. At the same time, through hundreds of millions of hardware terminals, Sony has acquired a large number of downstream cultural and creative industries, and gradually stood at the top of the food chain. Although, after the Internet era, because of the lack of foresight, Sony, gradually lagged behind, and formed a continuous loss for more than ten years. But the pattern of its peak is to amaze and imitate the world.

Sony has since gone from prosperity to decline, but the Sony model has not failed. After all, Apple's later strategies and products in the 21st century are so similar to Sony's. And success is also amazingly similar, except that Apple's products sell more than Sony's peak, and the ability of terminals in the Internet era to grab profits far exceeds that of hardware terminals before the Internet era.

Therefore, at this stage, Lin Qi is only going to use a small amount of cultural creativity in the parallel world of the 80s, rather than preparing to dump the creativity of the 21st century into the world like a flood.

At the same time, we will focus on collecting some technical information, and bring some technologies that have great prospects in the past few decades and the technical threshold is not too high into the control of new start-ups, so as to create a hardware terminal similar to Sony and Apple, relying on hardware terminals, standing in the upstream of the food chain of the cultural and creative industry.

For example, CD-ROM!

Abbreviation for CD, Compact Disc, or Laser Record. The technology originated in 1972 when researchers at Philips discovered that laser beams were capable of recording and storing information. By 1978, Philips had developed a commercially available laser disc system, LD!

The LD has a diameter of 12 inches and can store information on both sides of the CD-ROM, but the signal it records is analog, not a digital signal that can be read by a computer.

Since LD has verified the feasibility of optical disc storage, but it is necessary to burn money to develop cheaper commercial applications, Philips has also publicly licensed LD's technology patents and jointly developed CD records with Sony.

Historically, Philips and Sony have been at loggerheads over CD patent standards, but in the end, they unified the technical standards in 82 and jointly formulated the CD-DA Red Book standard.

Compared with LD, CD-DA is improved by the analog signal is digitized by PCM (pulse code modulation), and then encoded by EFM (8~14 bits) and recorded on the disk. The advantages of digital recording over analog recording are: insensitivity to interference and noise; Errors caused by defects, scratches or stains on the disc itself can be corrected.

After the success of the CD-DA standard, Philips and Sony have realized that CDs can be used in large computer read-only memory. However, in order to use CD-DA as a computer's memory, two important problems must be solved: (1) establish a disk data structure suitable for computer reading and writing; (2) The CD-DA bit error rate must be reduced from the existing 10-9 to less than 10-12.

This led to the Yellow Book standard for CD-ROM. The core idea of this standard is that the data on the disk is organized in the form of data blocks, and each block must have an address. By doing so, the data on the disk can be quickly found from hundreds of megabytes of storage space. In order to reduce the bit error rate, a scheme that adds error detection and error correction is adopted. Error detection uses cyclic redundancy detection codes, the so-called CRC; Error correction is based on the Reed Solomon code.

The Yellow Paper established the physical structure of CD-ROMs, and in order to make them fully compatible on computers, a file system standard for CD-ROMs, known as ISO9660, was later developed. With these two standards, CD-ROM has been rapidly promoted and used more and more widely around the world.

Later VCDs and DVDs were also implemented on the basis of CD-ROM. The difference between VCD, DVD and CD-ROM is only the addition of a decoder chip inside.

In other words, this is a technology that can have a huge market prospect for the next two decades or so. Achievements in hardware terminals in this field will inevitably achieve great influence in the fields of CD records, VCDs, DVDs, and software CDs.

This time, Lin Qi focused on collecting CD technical information, and then, reading the content by himself, whether he could read it or not, but he had to delete the date on the data to avoid the date on the data, exposing that these things came from the future.

Because he was worried that he might not be able to develop it if he had information, Lin Qi also bought a CD drive, a disc and a simple disc burner. Of course, the date, brand, and so on on the machines are polished out.

It took a week to collect and sort out the information. Lin Qi printed out more than 2,000 pages of documents.

These materials have been modified by Lin Qi, and there may be some errors.

However, Lin Qi believes that with the strength of the world's new start-up electronics companies, there should be a way to make this kind of technical research into products.

……

On July 26, 2018, the auction in Hong Kong got the news that most of Lin Qi's auction items had been sold, after deducting various taxes and fees.

In fact, Lin Qi can get 68.53 million yuan. After deducting the 50 million yuan borrowed from Sotheby's auction house, Lin Qi had more than 18 million yuan in his account.

Lin Qi is not ready to use this money for the time being, and it is stored in HSBC, ICBC and other bank accounts, he doesn't pay attention to the wealth management products recommended by the bank's account manager, but just puts the money in the bank account, anyway, he is not short of such interest money. Of course, there is a large amount of cash lying on the bank account, and the next time you return to this world, you can reduce the number of "souvenirs" you carry.

After the matter came to an end, on July 28, Lin Qi secretly said in the newly bought villa: "Open it, the door of crossing!"

An invisible portal that expands before your eyes......
