If it weren't for Ni Guangnan's reminder, Boss Jia would have really forgotten about VCD, which is what every household in China has in later generations between 2000 and 2015, and it is the same standard configuration as TVs and refrigerators.

Although with the popularization of the Internet and TV boxes, VCD and DVD are no longer available in every household, but they can sell at least one billion sales of household appliances!

, have to!

Jia Yapeng began to quickly adjust his original strategic deployment in his mind, but Jia Yapeng quickly remembered, it seems that there are already people in China studying VCD at this time.

Around September 93, Wanyan Group launched the first VCD in Huaxia, that is, Wanyan brand VCD, and there were only 6 months left before this time.

"Academician Ni, do you guarantee that you can get the prototype out in three months?" Boss Jia asked immediately.

"If it's just a prototype, as long as you give enough money, it will be made for you in a month!" Ni Guangnan said disapprerovingly, "This thing is actually not that complicated, it is just a decoding chip, a set of disc reading equipment, and finally an image conversion system." Basically all the main spare parts can be bought in the international market, so it is not difficult to manufacture a prototype, the difficulty is how to form mass production! ”

"This means that you have to design a new production line around this equipment, which is more troublesome, but the problem is not big, I promise to give you a complete design within three months, after all, we now have 700 people under our hands, before those research equipment is not made, just let them have something to do, so as not to waste your salary!" Ni Guang South Road.

"That's great, I'll immediately let the base start building a new plant to prepare for the research and development of VCD, and strive to get our VCD listed before September!" Jia Yapeng said a little hurriedly.

"Also, when my prototype and design drawings come out, you will immediately go to the patent office to apply for a national patent for this set of equipment, don't forget!" Ni Guangnan reminded.

"Good!" Jia Yapeng nodded, but he was a little worried in his heart, you must know that since April 92, Wan Yan has been researching VCD, I don't know if people have now produced prototypes, and at the same time they have been filed in the patent office, and they are now applying for patents, will it be a little too late!

Thinking of this, Jia Yapeng immediately ordered his subordinates to go to the patent office to investigate and inquire about the patent application for VCD.

As a result, to Jia Yapeng's surprise, the patent office did not have any patents related to VCD, and there was not even an application, as if no one had thought of this thing and did not exist at all.

In fact, Jia Yapeng later investigated the global patents and found that no unit in the world has applied for a related patent for the VCD machine, but MPEG-1, the patent of this video format, has completed the patent registration and filing in the world's economic powers.

Well, Huaxia also does not have a patent registration record in MPEG-1 format, which is equivalent to no patent.

Boss Jia didn't say a word, and immediately pestered Ni Guangnan and asked him to get a sketch of the prototype out within one day. The very simple kind, which roughly indicates how the VCD works, is impossible to make a prototype with this sketch, but it is enough to apply for a patent.

So on the second day, Boss Jia's VCD patent, as well as MPEG-1 video decoding patent, have all been applied, and at the same time, in the world market, Boss Jia also began to apply for a patent for the VCD machine, regardless of whether he can make money, anyway, get the patent first.

What Boss Jia doesn't know is that in history, Wan Yan, the company that made the world's first VCD, actually forgot to apply for a VCD patent.

This may sound like a very incredible thing, but it is true, Wan Yan has not thought of applying for a patent at all after the recent painstaking research on VCD.

As a result, the first batch of Wanyan 1,000 Wanyan VCDs on the market did not fall into the hands of consumers, but were basically bought back by major electronics manufacturers, such as Aiduo, Xinke, Xiaxin, Malata, Jinzheng, and Xianke.

They took Wanyan's VCD apart and studied it several times, and successfully mastered the manufacturing technology of VCD, and then more than 20 brands of VCD emerged in the country in an instant, and Wanyan was the first company in the world to invent VCD, and it went into decline, which had to be embarrassing.

Later, according to Wan Yan's boss's recollection, he did not apply for a patent because he didn't know about patents at all, and he didn't know what piracy meant, and he didn't have the meaning of patents at all.

This sounds like a complete stupid person, but this can't be blamed on this boss, after all, he can think of researching a device like VCD in the first place, and his IQ will never be problematic.

It's just that there was too little patent education in China at that time, and many people in China really have never heard of the words patent and piracy, they think that a thing can be imitated casually without any legal responsibility, which is a huge problem caused by the lack of domestic piracy and patent education.

However, fortunately, in 91 years, after Boss Jia and Yuzhang City State-owned Printing Factory, China began to pay attention to the problem of patents and piracy, and now the situation is better than at the beginning, I don't know how many times.

Because the professional equipment is still in the process of transportation, and the equipment and parts required for VCD research and development can basically be bought in China or Hong Kong.

So after returning to Yuzhang, Ni Guangnan led the existing researchers and directly started the research and development of VCD, while our Boss Jia began to have a headache for money at this time.

Ni Guangnan expanded the cost of the joint research center to 300 million US dollars in one go, which made Jia Yapeng very headache.

After returning to Yuzhang, Zhu Qiushui directly threw a financial report in front of Jia Yapeng, and then told Boss Jia that the company now has less than 100 million yuan in its accounts.

"We made 2 billion last year, and it's gone?" Hearing that there was no money left in the company's accounts, Boss Jia couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Who makes someone spend lavishly? First, a bonus of more than 100 million yuan was issued, and then the imperial capital spent 300 million yuan to buy real estate and shopping malls, and the magic capital sent another 200 million yuan to buy land, and successively invested 1 billion yuan to engage in construction. ”

"Now I have to invest 300 million yuan to build a joint development center, and I also got 700 bottomless pit with a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan, should the company still leave you more than 100 million in the account?" Zhu Qiushui said angrily.

She is indeed a little uncomfortable, Jia Yapeng spends money lavishly outside, and the hard-earned money is thrown out in the blink of an eye, Zhu Qiushui is difficult.

"It's okay, we can make the money back!" Jia Yapeng smiled, looked at the financial statements carefully, and then found that something was wrong!

"Qiushui, you're all the financial income for January, what about the financial income for the whole of February? You didn't count it! Boss Jia exclaimed.

"Here you go!" Zhu Qiushui snorted coldly, and then handed over the financial income in February to Jia Yapeng, Jia Yapeng looked at it a few times, and immediately smiled, "Yes, I actually earned 400 million in February, the primary school bully is really a baby!" ”

It is not unreasonable for Boss Jia to smile, because in this February financial statement, Daqian's operating income reached 800 million.

Among them, the big head is naturally the new trump card product of the primary school bully, and in the whole of February, the primary school bully actually sold 2.5 million units, and the sales reached 750 million.

Combined with the revenue from crispy noodles and four-wheel drives, the total revenue for the whole of February exceeded the level of 800 million yuan, which can be called the strongest in history.

Of course, the cost of primary school bully is expensive, and if these costs are removed, the profit will be about 400 million.

However, this has been able to instantly alleviate Daqian's financial pressure, and this time the computer research center, as well as more than 700 professional researchers, began to devour Daqian's funds like a gold-swallowing monster.

400 million profits, converted, not even 100 million US dollars, God knows where Boss Jia went to find 300 million US dollars for Ni Guangnan to buy equipment.
