Chapter Thirty-Six: The Starry Sky Emerges
Lu Yang walked over, picked up the contents, and lifted them.
Everyone finally saw it clearly.
Golden appearance, slim body, smooth lines, exquisite design, stylish styling...... The MP3 the size of a child's palm gave everyone an extremely amazing feeling.
"Is this really something we made?" Everyone asked themselves silently in their hearts.
Lu Yang proudly announced: "This is the first product of our Tianxin Technology, and I named it 'Starry Sky'!" β
Starry sky? The crowd pondered the name in silence.
Lu Yang didn't explain, he pressed his finger lightly, and five seconds later, MP3 turned on.
On the small screen, a brilliant starry sky appeared......
Everybody didn't blink.
Lu Yang's fingers flicked slightly, and after a while, a playlist appeared. He picked a random song.
"From the distant seaside, you slowly disappeared, and your original blurred face gradually became clear......"
"Ah, it's Zhang Yusheng's "The Sea"." Someone whispered.
Lu Yang motioned for everyone to continue listening.
After singing the song "The Sea", everyone seemed to be still reminiscing.
Lu Yang asked, "Okay, let's talk about it, how is the effect?" β
Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked at Liang Yuan. In addition to Lu Yang here, Liang Yuan's status is the highest, and if he wants to express his opinion, he will come first.
Liang Yuan was also polite: "The effect is very good!" If I rate it, I give it a full score! Just listening to this sound quality, it is not worse than the top audio equipment, and we are still playing it through loudspeakers. If it's headphones, it's definitely a pleasure to listen to songs with it! β
As soon as Liang Yuan spoke, everyone spoke one after another. However, the final comments are all good.
Chen Qi was the last to speak, and he pushed his glasses: "In terms of sound quality, there is no MP3 in China that can do it." In addition, the exterior design is also a highlight. Just looking at its appearance, I believe that many people are willing to spend money. However, there are three things that I am most concerned about right now, one is its operational part, one is the storage capacity, and the last one is its price. β
Unlike others, Chen Qi always kept a cool head, although he was also happy.
This point is especially important to Lu Yang.
He nodded with satisfaction and praised Chen Qi: "It's very good, not only did I see the good side of things, but I didn't let go of the other side." β
Everyone listened and looked at Chen Qi with some envy. During this time, everyone could see that Lu Yang attached great importance to this student named Chen Qi, needless to say, his future in the future would definitely be limitless.
There are also those who are jealous, but they dare not express themselves.
Lu Yang smiled and listened to another song "Sailor", and then with a gentle flick, the music stopped.
"The CPU of the MP3 is very simple, and the instructions are not complicated in terms of operation. However, compared with other products, our 'Starry Sky' is easier to operate and more user-friendly, and all operations can be carried out with one finger. Let's experience it, everyone! β
Lu Yang sent out the MP3 and let everyone fiddle for a while.
"How?" Lu Yang asked.
Chen Qi's face was full of incredulity: "It's much better than I imagined, not only the sound quality is comparable to foreign high-end products, but even the operation is not inferior." β
Lu Yang smiled: "Don't worry, the surprise is not over yet." β
Subsequently, Lu Yang's voice raised a little: "Just now Chen Qi asked about the capacity of the 'Starry Sky', hehe, I tell you that our 'Starry Sky' has a memory capacity of 4G, far exceeding the mainstream configuration on the market!" β
"What?" At this moment, even Chen Qi exclaimed.
Liang Yuan was even more shocked, when Lu Yang told him that the content of the first product reached at least 1G, he was still a little scoffing. It has been nearly a decade since MP3 was born. In the past ten years, new products have continued to appear abroad, many of which have reached 20G or even 60G memory, but those products are high-end products and the price is ridiculously expensive.
Like China, the mainstream configuration is generally 256M, the slightly better 512M, and the 1G configuration is already considered a medium and high configuration.
In contrast, Lu Yang's requirement to start is 1G, which is indeed a bit more difficult.
Who would have thought that Lu Yang not only achieved his goal, but even far exceeded it.
4G, which is already the top configuration in domestic products!
Liang Yuan calmed down his excitement: "Boss, the memory is so high, the price must not be low, right?" However, the domestic high-end market is almost entirely occupied by foreign products, and it is not easy for us to strive for the high-end market. β
Lu Yang knew that Liang Yuan was telling the truth, and the high-end market was indeed difficult to do, especially for new companies. Without recognition, how can others spend a lot of money to buy your product, even if your product is doing well.
This is people's consumption psychology and behavioral habits.
"Mr. Liang, don't worry, my product hasn't been introduced yet." Lu Yang sold a pass.
Liang Yuan had no choice but to sit down and listen to Lu Yang's introduction.
"Technically speaking, our 'starry sky' may not be able to compare with the top foreign products, but the gap between them is not large. First of all, this product not only supports MP3 and WMA format audio files, but also supports OGG and FLAC audio files, so to speak, it basically meets people's daily needs. Of course, at the moment, video text jiΓ n is not yet supported. β
"The second point is that due to the optimization of the operating system, the battery life of the 'Starry Sky' will reach 36 hours, which is 2 to 3 times that of the mainstream products on the market! With that alone, I'm sure we won't be disappointed! β
"Thirdly, 'Starry Sky' has added several functions that are only available in mobile phones, such as recording, calendar, phone book, alarm clock, etc., so that it can do a lot more than different products on the market."
"Fourth, the 'Starry Sky' adopts an all-metal aluminum alloy structure, which is not only durable, but also lightweight. This makes it much longer and more portable. β
Lu Yang said four points in one breath, each of which made everyone dumbfounded.
"Is this really our product?" Again, the crowd asked themselves. However, they admired Lu Yang even more. Everyone knows that this is not so much the common effort of everyone, but the crystallization of Lu Yang's labor. There is no one in this team, but there can be no one without Lu Yang. If it can be quantified, Lu Yang's credit accounts for 90% of the entire team!
After Lu Yang finished speaking, everyone applauded warmly. The applause lasted a minute!
Lu Yang pressed down with both hands and signaled for the applause to stop.
"As for Mr. Liang's question just now, I think I must want to know what I am doing......"
Lu Yang took out a copy of Wen JiΓ n from the bag beside him.
"This is China's 06 to 07 MP3 market research report, according to this report, the current domestic market sales of the leading brands are Aigostar, Meizu, OPPO, Onda, Blue Devil, Apple, Samsung, Taidian, Avery and so on. According to the number jΓΉ, in the first half of 07, domestic MP3 sales reached 5 million units, with sales of 3.3 billion. β
Everyone looked at the information that Lu Yang took out, and they all had some expectations in their hearts. The market of 3.3 billion, this is still only half a year!
"I analyzed it and the average price in the market is between 450 and 550 at the moment. Of course, this does not reflect the specific problem. It is also worth noting that the price of MP3 will show a downward trend in the future, and profit margins will also be compressed. β
"I compared the best selling brands in China and found that whether it is in terms of appearance or technology, our 'Starry Sky' is qualified to have a head-to-head showdown with them. This is definitely not arrogance, it is where the strength lies! So, we have to have faith in the 'starry sky'! β
"According to my statistics, if it is mass-produced, the cost of 'Starry Sky' is about 300 yuan. In addition, some of these procedures can be completed by our company ourselves, and the cost can be some more, about 270 yuan. I learned that Patriot will also launch an MP3 in the near future, priced at about 400 yuan. However, I can definitely say that the performance of their products is definitely not as good as ours! β
"After considering various factors, I thought about it and decided to set the price between 600 and 700 yuan."
Liang Yuan listened and breathed a long sigh of relief: "This price is absolutely no problem!" β
When he saw the 'starry sky' before, Liang Yuan was afraid that Lu Yang would raise the cost too high, and in the end, the price of the 'starry sky' exceeded 1,000 yuan. If it really exceeds 1,000 yuan, even if the quality of the 'starry sky' is guaranteed, I am afraid the prospect will not be optimistic.
1,000 yuan is a hurdle, and for those who can afford to spend, they are more willing to buy foreign products.
Chen Qi was very puzzled: "Boss, why is the quality of 'Starry Sky' so high and the cost so low?" β
He asked everyone's thoughts.
Liang Yuan also came back to his senses, yes, he had launched MP3 before, and he knew the various cost links.
Lu Yang smiled and said nothing, he was able to reduce the cost to this point, thanks to the technology provided by Tiandao Credit Card. Although the production technology of Level 2 MP3 is not advanced, it is extremely mature. One of the hallmarks of its maturity is its ability to significantly reduce costs.
This is also the secret weapon prepared by Lu Yang.
