Chapter 145: Next-Generation Storage Technologies

"Maxtor hard drive?"

Wang Xiao wondered: "Isn't Maxtor hard disk supposed to be acquired by Seagate hard drive?" ”

Shen Bingyu explained: "Seagate only acquired the mechanical hard disk in Maxtor HDD, while Maxtor HDD's SSD still keeps itself. ”

"Oh."

Wang Xiao suddenly went to the company's reception room with Shen Bingyu.

……

"Hello, President Thomson!"

Thomson is a thin, middle-aged man with bushy blonde hair.

"Mr. Wang, hello!"

Darren Thomson shook Wang Xiao's hand with some excitement after seeing him.

After the two sides sat down, after a little greeting, Thomson took the initiative to speak: "Mr. Wang, I came to your company this time to verify one thing. ”

"Oh, what's the matter?"

From Darren Thomson's excited expression just now, Wang Xiao noticed something strange, but asked the avatar to investigate and found nothing.

"What I want to ask is...... Does Techdao have a dedicated camera that can shoot holograms? ”

Darren looked at Wang Xiao nervously.

"Huh?"

Wang Xiao sat up slightly straight, about the holographic array camera Wang Xiao has never told anyone other than Xu Jun, how did Thomson know?

And Thomson immediately realized from Wang Xiao's surprised look that Wang Xiao really had this kind of camera!

Realizing this, Thomson almost jumped up, grabbed Wang Xiao's hand tightly and said loudly: "Mr. Wang, please be sure to tell me an affirmative answer, please!" ”

Wang Xiao looked at Thomson, who seemed to have won a million-dollar jackpot, in surprise, and said, "Well, yes, we do have ......."

Anyway, in a month or two, Hua Wei will launch a mobile phone equipped with an array camera capable of shooting holographic videos, and Wang Xiao has no intention of continuing to hide it, and before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Thomson's shouting: "Haha, great!" That's great! It's amazing!! ”

At this time, Wang Xiao's curiosity was finally aroused by Thomson's gaffe, and he immediately ordered the avatar to search for the reason why Thomson was so excited.

When Dalen Thomson recovered from his excitement a few minutes later, the avatar also told Wang Xiao what he had investigated.

"A new generation of storage technology? A hard drive the size of a fingernail with 100G storage capacity? ”

A gleam flashed in Wang Xiao's eyes, and he looked at Thomson thoughtfully.

"Mr. Wang, I want to get the authorization of the holographic video interface."

After calming down, Thomson's face still had a slight blush.

"Oh, yes."

Wang Xiao replied indifferently, and then spoke again before the other party was about to speak: "However, I want to use capital and technology to invest in Maxtor." ”

"Huh?"

Thomson's expression suddenly changed: "I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, at present, we have no intention of introducing capital technology. ”

Wang Xiao shook his head and said calmly: "One billion dollars, 50% of the shares!" ”

"No, it can't be!"

Thomson jumped up from his chair as if he had been pricked by a needle when he heard the offer: "This is absolutely impossible! ”

Wang Xiao was not surprised by this, if he had this new generation of hard disk storage technology, he would not agree to this offer, so he continued: "1.5 billion, 40% of the shares!" ”

"No, Mr. Wang, I don't think you understand what I mean, we Maxtor, have no willingness to introduce capital and technology!"

Thomson said sternly.

Wang Xiao smiled casually: "So...... Do you think your current production volume can afford that large number of new hard drive orders? ”

"How do you know?!"

Thomson's face changed greatly, and he stared at Wang Xiao and said.

Wang Xiao waved his hand to signal the other party to be quiet: "Our holographic display technology represents the future, and similarly, your company's new generation of storage technology also represents the future. ”

He's now fully aware of Thomson's intentions --

Because of the huge breakthrough in technology, Maxtor has developed a hard disk with super storage capacity, but in the face of the squeeze of the world's major hard disk companies, if Maxtor can not establish new technical standards in a very short period of time, Seagate and Western Digital can use the strong economic and technological heritage to copy this technology, and then Maxtor will be defeated again in the mortal world.

To avoid this, Maxtor had to come up with a surprise move and gain a lot of market leadership in a very short period of time!

Under normal circumstances, Maxtor can choose to cooperate with Apple or Samsung, because their mobile phone shipments are very huge, if they can cooperate with the two, then Maxtor will undoubtedly be able to achieve their goals, but unfortunately, this storage technology invented by Maxtor now, must have certain requirements for space, if installed on the mobile phone, then the thickness of the mobile phone will inevitably return to the era of more than 1cm.

Obviously, the mobile phone road is not going through, and on the PC side, in the face of the monopoly of Seagate and Western Digital, Maxtor has no chance of winning.

In the end, the only market Maxtor can target is mobile hard drives!

But the problem comes again, although there is a market for mobile hard disks, but its market is not enough compared to mobile phone storage and PC storage, Maxtor wants to rely on the rise of mobile hard disks, we must first cultivate this market.

Then, Darren Thomson came up with the idea of Evangelism Technology.

Because he found that the various products launched by Dao Technology are all interlocking: Dao Technology first released the Xiangong chip, then designed a console game for the Asgard chip, and then invented a holographic game on the basis of the Asgard console, and used Hua Wei's mobile phone to promote itself, and then launched a holographic TV when the Asgard console was suppressed, which completely turned around......

It can be said that each product is interlocking, forming an upstream and downstream system that complements each other, so Darren Thomson thought, does Zhengdao Technology have a camera that can shoot holographic video?

This conjecture is not unreasonable, because the camera with facial recognition function equipped on the Asgard host is produced by the Asgard host itself.

If Zhengdao Technology really has a camera that can shoot holographic video, then in terms of the huge space occupied by holographic video, whether it is a mobile phone or a computer, it will face a problem of hard disk space replenishment...... Other large storage devices on the market today are either huge or expensive, and cloud storage is often not available due to network problems.

Therefore, once the holographic camera is launched, everyone who takes pictures will have a demand for mobile hard disks, and in the face of this situation, Maxtor Technology will take advantage of the situation to launch its own mobile hard disks with small volume and large storage, which will definitely be a hit!

Think about the sales of tens of millions of holographic TVs, and think about the sales of mobile phones that have sold crazy in the past few months, which are all potential customers of Maxtor hard disks in the future.

That's why Darren Thomson is so concerned about whether Wang Xiaoshou has his own holographic camera.

……

After hearing Wang Xiao's advice, Darren Thomson hesitated.

Although, as Wang Xiao said, the cooperation between the two can better create a big scene and promote the common development of both parties, but after all, this technology was created by him and the company's technicians, so he used a mere $1.5 billion to give away 40% of the shares, Thomson was reluctant!

However, if you don't cooperate with Wang Xiao, you don't need anything else, as long as Wang Xiao doesn't authorize the holographic video interface to Maxtor HDD, then Maxtor HDD can only obediently choose to go to Seagate and Western Digital JΓ™ to face hard, which he is unwilling to face anyway.

Seeing Thomson's hesitation, Wang Xiao decided to add a fire.

He took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, plugged it into the computer and said, "President Thomson is a technical president, so you must have a good understanding of the new generation of storage...... How about taking a look at this article? ”

Thomson curiously leaned his head in front of the computer screen, and in the next second, his eyes widened, staring at Wang Xiao in disbelief and said, "This ...... Is this a new storage technology matrix? ”

Wang Xiao shrugged: "To be exact, it's the ultra-large storage matrix technology. ”

The storage capacity of the new hard disk developed by Maxtor is indeed amazing, and the hard disk storage core the size of a fingernail can store more than 100G of digital jΓΉ, but this kind of hard disk has a fatal drawback, that is, the capacity cannot be stacked.

In other words, if you want to increase the capacity of this type of hard drive, you will either have to upgrade Maxtor's technology so that it can store more jΓΉ in an area the size of a fingernail, or you can only buy two hard drives, and it is impossible to connect two storage cores together.

But now the technology that Wang Xiao has come up with is the way to use guΓ² an electronic matrix to superimpose two or even multiple storage cores!

It can be said that the matrix technology provided by Wang Xiao has completely upgraded the storage capacity of Maxtor's new generation of hard disks to a new level, so that Maxtor's hard disks can not only face personal hard disk users, but also face the enterprise-level hard disk market, and the latter, its profits are still before individual users.

After seeing this technology, Thomson immediately decided: "We are willing to cooperate with Zhengdao Technology!" ”

"Happy working together!"

Wang Xiao also smiled and shook Thomson's hand: "Matrix storage technology, as well as $1.5 billion, 49% of the shares." ”

Thomson hesitated for a moment, then said, "Deal!" ”

After reaching an agreement, Thomson said curiously: "Mr. Wang, can you let me take a look at the holographic camera?" ”

"Absolutely!"

Wang Xiao smiled and took Thomson to the real yΓ n room where Xu Jun had gone last time, and then showed the array holographic camera to Thomson.

"Wow, that's amazing, what a beautiful shot......"

Thomson looks at these cameras like a pervert looking at a beautiful woman without clothes. (To be continued.) )
