"Mr. Wang?" He Jiasheng and Li Zhe turned around, only to find that it was Wang Zijun who spoke just now.

The two of them are selective in attracting investment, such as Wang Zijun and Zou Wenhuai, the bosses of the entertainment industry, they did not lobby, and the target is mainly manufacturing tycoons.

Seeing that Wang Zijun took the initiative to greet them, the two of them didn't have any other ideas, just when Wang Zijun was a little stuffy inside, he came out to blow the wind.

Wang Zijun asked knowingly: "It's very lively inside, there are a lot of young people, why don't the two gentlemen play inside and run outside." ”

Li Zhe just smiled, but He Jiasheng suddenly remembered that this home video recorder had something to do with entertainment products, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't wait to slap himself twice.

Their previous thinking was so hard that they only thought of finding a manufacturing boss to work with them to set up a factory, but they forgot to find someone in the entertainment industry to cooperate. Several large record companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan have their own or close-knit vinyl record factories, and innovative entertainment devices such as home video recorders should be of interest to entertainment tycoons.

"Hello Mr. Wang" figured this out, He Jiasheng's attitude became enthusiastic, and at the same time quietly glanced at Li Zhe, Li Zhe was hinted a few times, and he also reacted violently.

So, the two began to shoot Wang Zijun's ass, and they talked about it for a long time before they gradually came to the point.

After talking about the situation of home video recorders in Japan, Li Zhe said: "Mr. Wang, I think this kind of video recorder will be a trend. In the future, people can sit at home and watch movies anytime and anywhere, and they can watch their favorite movies over and over again. For film companies, the production of film and video cassette sales will be a considerable peripheral income. ”

Wang Zijun raised his own question: "Do home video recorders sell well in Japan?" ”。

Li Zhe said: "The market is highly evaluated. ”

Wang Zijun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "In other words, everyone thinks it's good." However, I am afraid that the sales will not be too good. ”

He Jiasheng said: "Any new product invention has such a situation in the early stage. But it is undeniable that home video recorders represent a trend with excellent prospects, most people don't realize this, this blank period, just the perfect period for us to occupy the market. ”

Wang Zijun said: "But as far as I know, Taiwan has been popularizing television sets in recent years, and some families don't even have TV sets. Moreover, more than ninety percent of these TVs are black and white TVs, and the movies played with home video recorders are also black and white, and the effect is far less than that of those seen in the theater. In Hong Kong, the situation is not much better than in Taiwan. Plus the home video recorder has just come out, and the price must be very high, aren't you afraid that not many people will buy this thing when it is produced? ”

The two of them were speechless, Wang Zijun's words went straight to the point, even if they said that the prospects were good, but they couldn't open up the market at this stage, so everything was nonsense. Just like doing the network in later generations, the prospects for this industry are good, but the network companies at that time in the nineties and years were only a handful of companies that only had no return on investment and could survive until the Internet explosion without going bankrupt.

Seeing that the two of them did not speak, Wang Zijun continued: "I have estimated that according to the current number of TVs in Hong Kong, the total sales of high-tech products such as home video recorders will definitely not exceed 5,000 units within two years if they are launched now. Moreover, since the second half of last year, there have been signs of inflation in Hong Kong this year, and if this situation continues, it may not even be able to sell 3,000 units. As for Taiwan, since the base is larger than Hong Kong's, the results may be better. ”

He Jiasheng and Li Zhe looked at each other, what Wang Zijun said, they didn't think about it, but they didn't expect it to be so bad. Wang Zijun was like pouring a basin of cold water on their heads, although he didn't fully believe Wang Zijun's words, but that enthusiasm also cooled down a lot, and he began to think more calmly.

Wang Zijun said: "The best time to make a home video recorder is at least three or five years later. By the time most people could afford color televisions, home video recorders would be on the market. ”

He Jiasheng was unwilling to say: "It will be too late to do it at that time, even if we do it, we will be weak and will be eaten by large companies in the same industry." ”

Wang Zijun asked: "The plan of the two of them is to introduce technology to Sony to build a factory, right?" Quite a few words"...,

Li Zhe nodded a little frustratedly.

Wang Zijun said: "I have an idea. Now that the market is cold, why not develop your own technology? After a year or two, you can master the technology yourself before doing it, so that you don't have to be controlled by others. ”

He Jiasheng and Li Zhe smiled helplessly, they were in a hurry to open a factory just to make money, and they had no money to develop a fart.

Wang Zijun asked: "I don't know how much you know about the technology of home video recorders?" ”

He Jiasheng said: "I don't know much, but Ah Zhe studied electronics in Japan, and he understands it better. ”

Wang Zijun looked at Li Zhe, and Li Zhe said: "It's not too difficult, when I was studying in Japan, I actually participated in Panasonic's video recorder research work, but it was all hands-on, and there was no contact with the core." But I still know more or less, if you have the money, buy some Sony home video recorders to do reverse engineering, and you can master it in a year and a half. If you're lucky, you might be able to do it for a few months. But by that time, their models may have been upgraded. ”

Wang Zijun asked: "The patent right of the home video recorder is now in the hands of Sony?" ”

"No," Li Zhe nodded, "This kind of video recorder was proposed in the fifties, and it has long passed the patent protection period, and some companies in Europe and the United States have also launched many models. Sony launched the β-max recorder last year, and they only have a patent for this one, and earlier this year, Xingpai (formerly the Hong Kong translation of Japan's Shengli Company) and Panasonic jointly launched the VHS recorder. Both of these recorders are better than the original models, but they are not compatible, and their respective tapes are even different in size, so they cannot be used universally. ”

"That's easy to do," Wang Zijun clapped his hands and said, "I bought all of them and dismantled them for research, and we also got one out." ”

"We?" The two looked at him strangely.

According to Mr. Lai, today's home video recorders are still semi-mature products. Whether it is Sony, Xingpai, or Panasonic, they all hide their technology, and most of the ones that are pushed out now are still in the testing stage, and there will definitely be improvements in the future. I dare to pack a ticket, if these three companies want to make the market the largest, there are only two ways, one is to do their best and occupy the market; The second is that the three companies sit down and cooperate, unify the technical standards, and improve the video recorder compatible, otherwise users will also score the model when buying a movie videotape on the market. However, I believe that the second scenario is very unlikely, and they will fight for the next few years, or even ten years. Wang Zijun said with a smile, "And what we have to do at this time is to study their success and observe the market dynamics at any time." After a year or two, the technology and market of home video recorders have matured slightly, and then we launched our products in Taiwan and Hong Kong, playing the banner of Chinese's own high-tech to occupy the market. What do you think? Are you interested in participating? ”

Li Zhe asked excitedly, "Mr. Wang wants to invest in us to do technical research?" ”

"Do you have faith?". Wang Zijun asked.

"Absolutely." Li Zhe said, "But this investment may be a bit large." ”

Wang Zijun asked: "How about a million Hong Kong dollars?" ”

Li Zhe said: "It should be no problem, but if I can add another million, my confidence will be even stronger." He was afraid that Wang Zijun would think that the money was too much, and explained, "After all, I have to recruit people, and a year's salary is a big expense." And it's not hard to make a home video recorder, like the kind I did in the fifties and sixties when I was in college. The hard part is to improve its performance, and the work we have to do is not just to copy the current technology of Japanese companies, but to make our things. ”

"Okay, I'll give you three million." Wang Zijun was simply generous to the end.

He Jiasheng saw that the two of them were happy, and he was a little bored next to him. Messing around, it seems like there's nothing to do with him. But I heard Wang Zijun say: "I don't have so much energy to care about these things, Mr. He has run a factory, is he interested in managing the operation of this R&D company?" ”

"This ......" He Jiasheng did not hide it, and told his recent situation. It turned out that the plastic flower factory in his hand was not doing well, and he owed a debt, and now he can't find anyone to take over for a while. He originally wanted to sell the factory to make a home video camera business and turn over, but Wang Zijun is a research and development company, only input but no output, his life is sad, and he doesn't know when he will be able to pay off his debts. …,

Wang Zijun said: "No problem, the plastic flower factory can be disposed of with Mr. He, as for your debts, I can lend you to repay them, and it will not be too late to repay me after ten or eight years." As for our new company in the future, I personally only need 60 shares, and you will distribute the rest yourself, and I will not participate. ”

And this kind of good thing?

He Jiasheng and Li Zhe looked at Wang Zijun puzzled, no matter how they looked at it, they felt that the person in front of them was a big wrongdoer.

Wang Zijun doesn't care, the 3 million Hong Kong dollars can be regarded as buying a few luxury houses, and it doesn't matter if they are lost. Coupled with future investment, this money will not be earned back for at least a few years, and the popularity of home video recorders will not be until at least the 80s, before which it is only a luxury item that only a few families will buy.

Next, the two simply looked at Wang Zijun as a fortune boy, and the three continued to discuss some details, seeing that it was too late, they still made an appointment to talk about it another day.

Entering the banquet hall, people are hugging and dancing. Wang Zijun found an opportunity, found Huo Yingdong, and talked about wanting to use the Macau casino to make a movie, Huo Yingdong agreed, and said: "I don't care much about the affairs in Macau, you can go to Ye Han, I have a good personal relationship with him." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Huo." Wang Zijun hurriedly thanked.

For Ye Han, Wang Zijun still knows a little. Stanley Ho is known as the gambling king of Macau, and that is because of his power. And Ye Han is respected as the "God of Gambling" and "Saint of Gambling", in addition to his power, he also has his superb gambling skills and good character......
