First bigger and then stronger, or first strong and then bigger, this is a question, in fact, He Xiangdong himself is still more inclined to be stronger first and then bigger, of course, he has also seen the impact of technology and patents on the future, as long as you can master enough technology, you can gain a foothold in the corresponding field, and then become bigger, it is just a simple process, and if it is bigger first, the stall will be spread quickly, but if you want to be stronger, you don't know when.

However, there are a lot of problems, the biggest problem is, of course, the capital, although He Ping did not ask He Xiangdong Oriental Group how much start-up capital, but during this period of time the development of Oriental hardware he also saw in his eyes, counting Oriental hardware, and then counting other funds and savings, as well as other people's capital injection, at most is about 100 million, in this era, especially in Qingshan City, it is already very good, but in Dabo City, in Hedong Province, in the whole country, this money can not even splash up.

First become stronger and then bigger, the first thing is technology, that is, scientific research, and scientific research is not good, it is to burn money, the Eastern Group has just been established, there are many places that need to use money, even if you squeeze out some for scientific research, it will soon be consumed, if you can't get the results that can be commercialized before the funds are exhausted, or the follow-up funds are not in place, the scientific research funds will be in vain, and the Eastern Group will be in trouble.

Another problem is the intention of the shareholders, although He Xiangdong is the largest shareholder, with 51 percent of the shares, has the absolute right to speak, but the shareholders' opinions can not be listened to, it is impossible to go his own way, although the final decision is still he, but the process of negotiation is necessary, if the investment intentions of all shareholders can not be coordinated, and infighting, the Oriental Group may not have set sail, has already died.

Now, the shareholders of the Oriental Group are basically inclined to become bigger and stronger first, first open the stall, and then slowly accumulate up, it is no wonder, after all, these shareholders are much worse than He Xiangdong in terms of financial strength, and the vision is the same, they entered the shareholder group, is to see He Xiangdong's ability, hope to follow He Xiangdong to make a lot of money, if He Xiangdong comes steadily, then there is nothing to say, but if he wants to do any surprise, then I'm sorry, I don't accompany him!

Although He Xiangdong tends to be stronger first and then bigger, if he can't come up with a suitable plan, can't put forward a suitable entry point, without a good reason, this thing is still unpassable, He Xiangdong has been thinking a lot about this matter these days, but the result is not very good, he has never thought of a suitable plan and entry point, and now when he heard He Ping's statement, he immediately had a feeling of brightness.

Electronic equipment, to be honest, he had thought about it before, but he quickly gave up, because he felt that no matter how he did it, it was unlikely to surpass those existing state-owned enterprises, or the leading boss who was restructured from state-owned enterprises, and there was not much potential for development.

After all, the experiment is a thing, maybe the experiment started yesterday will be successful today, maybe ten or eight years have passed without the slightest progress, although He Xiangdong is also a professional in this area, but his level is still far behind, can not give much advice to the scientific research team, if the scientific research team does not achieve results before the funds are exhausted, he has no way to explain to the shareholders.

"Electronic equipment ......" He Xiangdong listened to He Ping's statement, and said after a deep sigh: "To be honest, we have also discussed the feasibility of electronic equipment, but everyone is not optimistic, our idea is that it is difficult for us to compete with those large enterprises in terms of electronic equipment, especially those large enterprises, many of which were originally military enterprises, and have great advantages in technology, which is not something we can surpass." ”

"Dad, what kind of electronic devices do you mean by electronic devices?"

"Of course, if you want to do it, you have to make it bigger, such as cranes, generators, electronic control equipment, etc., at least large household appliances, such as TVs, washing machines and refrigerators, etc., but these things are monopolized by large enterprises, even if we pay patent fees to be able to produce and sell, with our reputation can not have much sales, and it is not difficult to carry out research and development, after all, this aspect is almost to the extreme, unless there is a breakthrough in other aspects, otherwise, it is difficult to have big innovation in this area alone."

"And have you ever thought about something smaller?"

"Smaller? How small? He Xiangdong was a little puzzled, although He Xiangdong is only in his thirties now, and he has a good vision, but after all, he does not have He Ping, a person who has experienced the future, has a long-term vision, he feels that if he wants to become bigger and stronger, he must start from the big things, and the small things can't do anything after all.

"For example, mobile phones, digital camcorders and digital cameras, mp3 and mp4, and so on."

"These things?" He Xiangdong frowned, in his eyes, in addition to the mobile phone, other things are just toys, there is not much development potential, and there is not much scientific and technological content, as for the mobile phone, the price is too high, the phone bill is too expensive, there is no popularity at all, even if a high-end mobile phone is developed, how many people are willing to spend money to buy it? If there is no market, then no matter how high the technology is, it will be in vain.

"Dad, don't underestimate these things, digital equipment must be the future of the general trend, no matter what electronic equipment is digital products in the future, must be controlled by the computer, although these things are very small, but it is the core of the key, if you can achieve higher scientific research results on these things, then it is not difficult for the Oriental Group to become bigger and stronger, besides, the investment in these things is not large, and the scientific research funds required are not much, and the Oriental Group can afford it."

"Hmm~~~" He Xiangdong was silent for a while and then asked, "Are you really sure that these little things can be popularized and can still lead the market?" ”

"** Not far from ten!" He Ping said so, but in his heart is 100% sure, the future of the kind of grand occasion of a mobile phone in hand, is now people can not imagine, the current mobile phone has few functions, in addition to making and receiving calls, only the address book is still a little practical value, and the price is very high, the phone bill is also very high, plus the signal is not good, many places can not be used, long-distance calls are surprisingly expensive, once roaming is more money-burning, even if it is a good family, if there is no great need will not use.

"Dad, you can think so." Seeing that He Xiangdong was still thinking, He Ping said again: "The mobile phone now seems to be just a convenient phone, for many people, there is really not much need, but if we put other functions into the mobile phone, then what will happen?" ”

"Other features?" He Xiangdong was enlightened, and he asked, "What functions can you add?" ”

He Ping replied: "As I just said, if you study together with the camera and mp3mp4, and then after you have certain results, you can add all these things to the mobile phone, and even use wireless signals to connect to the network, then the mobile phone is not as simple as a phone, you can completely treat the mobile phone as a miniature computer, when you get to that point, how many people need such a mobile phone, how big the market should be, you should be able to imagine it, right?" ”

He Xiangdong closed his eyes, and began to imagine the future He Ping said in his mind, indeed, if a palm-sized mobile phone can carry so many functions, then such a machine will definitely be able to be popularized among all mankind, if the cost and phone bill can be reduced, it will no longer be a dream for each person, and such a small thing is indeed as He Ping said, the cost of production is not high, at least much lower than that of large machines, and the direction of research and development is also more flexible, the likelihood of success will be greatly increased!
