Chapter 0984 - A Circle Everyone Understands in Business School

……

Although China has not yet set up a long "Golden Week" holiday aimed at promoting the consumer economy, May Day has always been an important national holiday, and the five-day COMDEX Yanjing exhibition was scheduled at this time to maximize popularity. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

COMDEX, which has been to Asia for nearly 20 years, has been to Asia several times before, but it is no surprise that they have chosen to settle in Tokyo, and this year's move to Yenching is not only the first time in China, but also the second stop in Asia.

The reason for this is none other than that COMDEX, which is completely driven by commercial companies, has a very sharp nose and is the most sensitive to profit - in the past, it was the world's second largest IT consumer market, but now China, as an emerging IT consumer market, has a huge space and prospects that make the world jaw-dropping.

From the perspective of ordinary people, the most impressive application of technology may be the boom in the telecommunications industry, which has blossomed everywhere, almost to the extent that public telephones can be found in any small store in the county below.

In addition to enjoying the convenience of the traditional function of calling, additional services such as telephone inquiry of college entrance examination scores are also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Behind these circumstances, it is Tang IT that has completed a series of technologies, including ADSL, in advance, so that the development of China's telecommunications industry has not wasted feelings in ISDN and other "pits", and it is basically in place in one step.

Another example is that cable television is also developing rapidly, and it has also radiated to ordinary users at the city and county level.

And there are more articles to do here - you know, although in China, personal computers are still a rare thing for ordinary families, but TV is definitely a standard configuration, on this basis, further cooperate with cable TV networks, set-top boxes, maybe you can get out of a road of Internet development with Chinese characteristics in advance.

Therefore, at this stage, China's IT consumer market has begun to make those large international companies enthusiastic and heartbeat even harder - and the COMDEX Yanjing exhibition has naturally received their enthusiastic support.

At the same time, there is no need to have the slightest doubt that the enthusiasm and self-motivation of the Chinese people for advanced technology will explode as long as they are guided a little.

With such favorable conditions, the COMDEX Yanjing exhibition has become the focus of attention of the Chinese media recently.

……

After arriving in China, Mr. The richest man took a short rest and went straight to the China International Exhibition Center at the northeast corner of the Third Ring Road the next day to attend the opening ceremony of the COMDEX Yanjing Exhibition.

The exhibition hall, which was rated as one of the top ten buildings in Yanjing in the 1980s, completed the first phase of the project in October 1985 in less than two years, followed by the first large-scale international exhibition, the Asia-Pacific International Trade Fair, in November of the same year.

In June 1994, the construction of the main hall of the China International Exhibition Center was completed, and the 5th Asia-Pacific International Trade Expo was held here in the same year.

Today, the China International Exhibition Center has integrated exhibitions, conferences, accommodation and entertainment, with all kinds of exhibition halls, lecture halls, conference rooms, negotiation rooms, Chinese and Western restaurants, bars, dance halls, tennis courts, gymnasiums, etc., and customs, animal and plant quarantine, foreign transportation, engineering construction units, etc. are also working on site, and have the conditions for holding and receiving various types of comprehensive and professional exhibitions, expositions and conferences -- the COMDEX Yanjing Exhibition has been very thoughtful and hospitable.

Tang Huan met with many important leaders of state ministries and commissions here, and this was his first contact with the government during his visit to China this year.

It is entirely conceivable that the speech at the opening ceremony was a must, but it seemed a bit cumbersome, and when it was the turn of the richest man to give a speech, he tried to be as concise as possible.

……

"I can say without modesty that I have been following the Chinese market for a long time, and I know a lot about its growth, current situation, prospects, etc. So, I have a definite conclusion here - if anyone ignores this huge market, they are really outdated. ”

"I've always been a win-win situation in business – I just walked around the pavilion and found a lot of Chinese companies, which made me see a wider range and deeper cooperation opportunities. ”

"At present, the development of the Internet is in full swing, the information age is all around us, I hope that everyone can use the platform of this COMDEX Yanjing Exhibition to communicate more, do not miss the opportunity, and welcome the new millennium with a better attitude. ”

"I wish this COMDEX Yanjing Exhibition a perfect success!

……

The applause won by the richest man was obviously much warmer. The eyes of some entrepreneurs are even more eager.

Speaking from facts, there are really not many IT companies with pure blood in China at the present stage -- the pioneers who made a name for themselves in Zhongguancun in the early years either fell down; or they became distracted and moved to other fields; and only a handful of them have survived until now -- but if we pull the circle of household appliances over, the momentum can be regarded as spectacular.

Of course,Not everyone can get the light of IT,At least the product line color TV accounts for a considerable proportion,At the same time, it is better to involve communication products such as telephones。

In addition to the new model of "TV-set-top box-cable network-Internet" that is still in operation and the final result is unpredictable, there are also traditional home TV game consoles and VCDs that are getting better.

Tang IT's design of this alternative business development route naturally fully considers various constraints including national conditions, and the purpose is to be down-to-earth.

In the next product release process that has been hyped for a long time, Mr. the richest man, who personally presided over it, implemented this characteristic idea.

The first grand debut is naturally the world's first to use a real 64-bit microprocessor, instead of the previous concept of mixing through two 32-bit CPUs, the most powerful home TV game console to date - the fourth generation of Xiaobawang game console.

The dense long guns and short cannons in the hands of the reporters pointed to the large screen in the exhibition area where the propaganda film was being played.

This beautifully crafted video takes the form of a historical retrospective.

……

Born in 1979, the little Tyrannosaurus rex has the number "8" on its body, swaying and walking around, and it is cute and cute.

As the number "8" evolved into the number "16", then to the number "32", until the number "64" in 1996, the huge Tyrannosaurus rex, which symbolizes the four generations of Little Tyrannosaurus game consoles, roared with their heads high, and the animals under their feet fled in panic.

Tang Huan, who slowly stepped onto the stage, waited for everyone's excited emotions to calm down a little, and then pointed to the black Xiaobawang game console that was displayed, and said enthusiastically: "In order to make such a small box can provide the most powerful game performance and the most perfect use of the embodiment, the fourth-generation Xiaobawang game console has integrated the world's top technology to create a new generation of family entertainment center." ”

In addition to the lifelike game effects, the fourth-generation Xiaobawang game console also supports the new generation of digital video standard - DVD, especially can also connect to Battle.net to provide online functions - from now on, Xiaobawang game console players can happily wander together at home with friends and family in other places, as well as like-minded people around the world with similar hobbies. ”

……

In fact, Mr. The richest man has the same mirror in his heart, don't look at everyone's enthusiasm, but the standard version of the fourth-generation Xiaobawang game console priced at $399.99 in North America has limited performance in the Chinese market.

Gaine, it is completely conceivable that ordinary people, as the main consumer, are now difficult to accept, just to play games, spending thousands of dollars, it is better to add some more money, and buy a personal computer that can take care of study and work.

The reason why the fourth-generation Xiaobawang game console chose to make an official global launch at the COMDEX Yanjing Exhibition is mainly to show its attitude and support for the Chinese market.

In fact, as far as the whole brand is concerned, the foundation of Xiaobawang game consoles in the Chinese market is still quite deep - a generation of Xiaobawang game consoles, which have long been localized and produced, belong to the 8-bit era, and have the widest range of user groups, including the lowest counties, towns and villages.

This is due to the affordable price and a series of operations under the banner of education, which suddenly captured the psychology of parents "for the children", which can be described as a very ingenious Chinese characteristic.

In a positive sense, the 8-bit generation of Xiaobawang game consoles, with the random educational gift package, still plays a role in popularizing some scientific and technological concepts, including computers, at the grassroots level, and bridging the knowledge gap.

Therefore, everyone's enthusiasm for the four generations of Xiaobawang game consoles is not fake, after all, this brand can be called deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

If the policy level allows, then with the further improvement of people's living standards, it may not take a few years, and the four generations of Xiaobawang game consoles will have a pity market return.

……

Compared with the 64-bit fourth-generation Xiaobawang game console, the atmosphere of the U disk press conference is very literary - a model dressed in white-collar clothes, and a delicate and small U disk with a Chinese red color pinched by the slender fingers, which is pleasing to the eye.

The USB flash drive with a clear ownership of the patent is coming at this time, thanks to three points:

First, Flash_Memory - flash memory, the memory of the storage medium, the read/write life, production scale efficiency and other indicators, to meet the requirements;

Second, the USB interface has become synonymous with the industry as Fangyuan personal computers have become synonymous with the industry, and they have become popular to the point of standard configuration;

Third, the vigorous development of RISC microprocessors has finally provided a practical solution for the storage device controller necessary for USB flash drives, that is, the master controller, which is particularly important.

10 people can build a house in 10 days, but it doesn't mean that 1,000 people can build a house in just two or three hours.

By the same token, it would be a mistake to assume that if you stack flash memory at any cost, USB sticks will naturally spawn - and if that were the case, then SSDs could be the world.

The richest man took a thumb-sized USB flash drive and plugged it into the USB port of Fangyuan's laptop, and the operating system StudiOS directly recognized the device; the green indicator of the USB flash flashed a few times, and then remained on; the self-readme file written during its mass production was also automatically opened -- it can be said that the "plug and play" was vividly demonstrated.

Tang IT smiled slightly and introduced: "As we all know, the mobile storage solutions for personal computers at this stage include floppy disks with a capacity of 1.44MB, 1.68MB, and 2.88MB, ZIP disks with a capacity of tens of MB to hundreds of MB, CD discs with a capacity of about 700MB, and next-generation DVD discs with a capacity of several GB. ”

"Compared with these mobile storage solutions based on the principle of 'magnetism' or 'light', our new USB flash drive, similar to the game cartridge, uses semiconductor memory chips, but the difference is that this new generation of semiconductor memory chips also supports write operations, and the capacity from the current 16MB, 32MB, to the future of GB computing, is not unimaginable, access speed can directly benefit from the update of USB interface specifications. ”

Speaking of this, Mr. The richest man gestured to the staff on the side, and then continued: "So, now let's see with our own eyes, what is the excellence of the actual reading and writing performance of the USB flash drive compared with the relatively traditional mobile storage solution?"

The results of this demonstration do not need to be described too much -- the performance of the USB flash drive directly crushed the floppy disk, the ZIP disk, and the buzzing disc in the process of operation, countless times.

Tang IT finally picked up the USB flash drive and said: "Like the floppy disk ZIP disk, the USB flash drive also has a write protection switch to prevent misoperation or virus damage, and it also supports encryption software to provide a higher level of data security protection." ”

……

These cheers for COMDEX's first visit to China have naturally had a very obvious effect and firmly attracted the attention of the media around the world.

For example, some commented that after the official launch of the fourth-generation Xiaobawang game console, other home consoles were only trembling, and some predicted that the USB flash drive would end the decades-old floppy disk......

The richest man didn't care about these lively voices, anyway, they were all expected, and he next put his mind on the forum held at the same time in the lecture hall of the China International Exhibition Center.

Tang IT's topic is mainly "TV + set-top box + Internet" with a little flickering nature, and he sent an invitation to the Chinese entrepreneurs attending the meeting, "The Wuyue Business School, which I donated to build, will open an MBA class for the first time this year." If you want to broaden your business horizons, you might as well take the time to listen. ”
