Chapter 338: R&D of new products

Zhu Xiaohua said: "I said, if it's for me, are you willing to help me develop it?" ”

Professor Shao and Qian Liyi's eyes lit up.

Professor Shao said, "You mean, you also want to make a photographic product? ”

Zhu Xiaohua nodded: "If this production is successful, it will change the pattern of the entire photography market and greatly improve the efficiency of taking pictures." ”

Professor Shao and Qian Liyi were stunned, they obviously couldn't imagine that there was anything more important than No. 2 photo paper.

Zhu Xiaohua told them his philosophy.

Of course, he told them that thirty years later it would not seem new to people, Polaroid cameras, disposable developing paper.

But in this day and age it is absolutely unimaginable new technology.

Zhu Xiaohua said: "Ordinary photography requires light sensitivity, then film development, and a long process to produce photos. If you could combine the process of photosensitivity and photo development into one, and complete the process of developing photos in the camera at the same time as taking the photo or within a few seconds, wouldn't the efficiency of taking photos be greatly improved?

"Imagine how time-saving and efficient it would be for people to get their hands on a picture as soon as they've taken it."

Both Professor Shao and Qian Liyi were attracted by his novel concept and listened quietly.

Zhu Xiaohua said: "To put it simply, it is to change several structures in the camera, merge the film and the photo paper together, and at the same time press the shutter, the film sensitivity is reflected on the photo paper, so as to achieve immediate image production." ”

After listening to this, Professor Shao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and his whole body seemed to be energized.

It's as if someone suddenly was empowered, and suddenly had an epiphany on the spot.

It had been a long time since he had felt it.

He couldn't help but look at Zhu Xiaohua again, the young man in front of him always surprised him from time to time, bringing him a different experience.

He vaguely felt that the young man in front of him was a little different.

Just like the feeling that Zhu Xiaohua brought to him when he first met Zhu Xiaohua and took pictures of his couple, Professor Shao decided to give him a hand and decided to give it a try.

Professor Shao nodded and said, "This concept is not bad, I'll go back and make it." ”

He immediately asked Zhu Xiaohua to draw the structure of the camera after the change, and the appearance of the film and paper after being combined into one.

Of course, thirty years later, all of these things will be called prototypes, or concept art.

Zhu Xiaohua immediately found paper and a pen, spread the paper on the hood of the car, took a pencil, and wrote and drew on the paper.

He first drew the appearance of the camera, which is a camera with a half-sectional structure, and he can see the internal structure. Unlike ordinary cameras, the shutter inside this camera is directly connected to the photo paper, and the photo paper is triggered the moment the shutter is pressed.

He then drew a model of a one-time photographic paper, with an ordinary-looking piece of photographic paper on the front and blackened film on the back.

After the two drawings were finished, down to the most detailed, he suddenly froze, unable to continue.

Professor Shao and Qian Liyi waited for a long time, but they didn't see him write again.

Qian Liyi said: "If you can't think clearly, don't think about it for the time being, you just tell Professor Shao how it works." ”

Zhu Xiaohua relied on the memory in his mind, hurriedly drew a few more strokes, and ended his painting.

He ended up drawing a diagram of the construction of an Instant camera and a one-time model of photographic paper. Some of the details are no longer remembered, and I can only draw a rough outline.

Zhu Xiaohua handed over the drawn structural drawings to Professor Shao and said, "Some of the details, especially the process from light sensitivity to printing, need to be studied in detail. In addition, how to realize the processing of the photo paper after the camera presses the shutter also requires some ingenious design. I'll leave this to you. ”

Zhu Xiaohua also introduced the principle of photo paper.

Polaroid photo paper is very different from ordinary photo paper, it has an extra layer of photosensitive material on the back of the photo paper, and the picture taken through the lens, after the photosensitive material is sensitized, and then through a series of complex chemical reactions, it is presented to the front of the photo paper, so as to achieve one-time imaging.

Professor Shao took the structural drawing, looked at it carefully, and muttered: "This concept is quite attractive, but with the current technology, can it really be manufactured?" ”

Professor Shao was not completely sure that he could make such a thing, after all, no one had ever seen such a product in this era.

It seems to have been born across the globe and has no relevance to existing camera products at all.

Zhu Xiaohua said: "I believe that in the near future, this kind of product will definitely appear. We're just getting it a little bit ahead of the curve now. With current technology, it should be completely achievable. ”

Seeing that Professor Shao was still hesitating when he looked at the prototype drawing.

Zhu Xiaohua paused for a moment and continued: "This product will be popular in the future, and even people in Europe and the United States are using this product. If you can make this Polaroid product, I invite you to invest in the technology and we will set up a new company together. ”

Professor Shao was surprised, he had never thought of setting up a company, and his specialty was in research, not running a business.

He hesitated, "Can this really work?" ”

Zhu Xiaohua said: "You don't have to worry about running a business, you don't have to invest a penny in technology, according to the technical contribution, you will get the company's largest shareholder as a auction, I will be the second largest shareholder, the funds will be paid by me, and the operation and management will be done by me." ”

Professor Shao immediately objected, saying: "I can't be the largest shareholder, or you can do it." I'm only responsible for developing the product. ”

Qian Liyi also persuaded Zhu Xiaohua, saying: "The teacher is old, I'm afraid he can't bear this." ”

Zhu Xiaohua said: "Since this is the case, then we will agree that I will be the largest shareholder." The teacher is the second largest shareholder, only responsible for the product, and I will handle the rest. ”

Zhu Xiaohua feels that the creation of this epoch-making photographic product is inseparable from Professor Shao's research-oriented talent.

Zhu Xiaohua said: "After this product is completed, we will have our own company. I have thought of the name of the company, and it is called Instant Camera Technology Co., Ltd.

"At the moment, the most important thing is to develop this camera and photo paper as soon as possible, and occupy the market before the large-scale release of Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper on the market."

Zhu Xiaohua has a grand goal in front of him.

He wants to use this instant product to defeat He Zhenyu's Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper.

He not only has to defeat He Zhenyu's No. 2 photo paper, but also He Zhenyu's Pan Dahua Group.

He wants to let everyone present today see that he, Zhu Xiaohua, is by no means a person at a third-rate banquet.

He wants He Zhenyu to taste that he does not pay attention to Professor Shao's research and development achievements, and does not pay attention to the bitter fruits of scientific and technological talents.

Qian Liyi said: "This is good, if you can really develop this product, you will no longer be just a guest in the future, but the owner of your own product." ”
