Previously, Kaede Shirakawa was still thinking about how to compete with the Sony Walkman.

After all, what you have, everyone else has, and they do it better than you.

has no own characteristics, and even if he survives, he will follow others to drink soup.

Now, Shirakawa Kaede looked at the drawings in front of him, and he felt that he had a greater grasp of getting something from Big Brother Sony's mouth.

"Yasuda-san, senior Yamazaki, if we follow this structure, can we Shirakawa Electric do it?" Kaede Shirakawa pointed to the earbuds on the drawing and confirmed with them.

"I can do it!" Masaaki Yasuda and Hui Yamazaki said in unison.

"Technically, there is no problem at all, and the sound structure of the headphones can now be made very small."

Whether it is a moving coil type or a moving iron type, it has long been miniaturized.

The reason why it is still a head-mounted structure is that one is to consider the acoustic aspect of noise reduction, and the other is that the thinking limits its shape.

To put it bluntly, the brain hole is not big enough.

Now the earbuds proposed by Kaede Shirakawa are definitely a revolutionary design in terms of appearance.

As for how the market will perform in the future, either it will not be able to die again, or it will become a generational trend.

"Okay, then we'll make earbuds as a companion headset for Flashman." Shirakawa Kaede directly made a decision and decided the final configuration of the Walkman.

"So what kind of headphones do we use?" Masaaki Yasuda further confirmed.

"Dynamic bar, the most common, the simplest, the most mature technology, the lowest cost, very suitable for our Flashman positioning."

New entrants must have the consciousness of new entrants, starting with the simple. Solve the problem from scratch.

"Is there a problem with the equipment?" Because of the addition of a new headphone production line, Shirakawa Kaede needed to consider the budget cost.

Masaaki Yasuda and Hui Yamazaki discussed a few words, and finally Yasuda gave an affirmative answer.

"Only a new automatic winding machine needs to be added, and the existing equipment for other processes can be satisfied, and even a lot of work can be replaced."

Shirakawa Kaede nodded to show that he understood, as long as there was no conflict.

According to Yasuda's plan, the current Shirakawa Electric Workshop can add another earphone production line.

This small product process is simple and uncomplicated, and it can be produced in large quantities every day.

As for the obsidian record player, according to Shirakawa Kaede's estimates, its sales peak will be around six or seven hundred units.

The market has solidified, and no matter how much Shirakawa Electric tosses, it will not make a big breakthrough.

Therefore, whether it is its R&D or production scale, Shirakawa Kaede does not plan to invest again, just maintain the status quo.

After all, it's still profitable, and when there is no room for profit one day, it will simply cancel its production.

"By the way, President Shirakawa, we need to register a patent for this earbud headset right away.

This is our moat, and it must be guaranteed to be foolproof. Masaaki Yasuda explained with a serious expression.

The reason why a core technology is called a core technology is sometimes not because of its difficulty, but because of its patent barriers.

Shirakawa Kaede waved his hand, "I'll ask Yasuda-san to compile these things." Assistant Komatsu, you are responsible for assisting Yasuda-san in completing the patent registration. ”

"Hai" Yasuda and Komatsu assistants bowed in response.

The technical things should be left to the professional, who is only responsible for coming up with ideas and controlling the direction.

"Ladies and gentlemen, all of Flashman's problems have been solved.

The following is its mass production problem, the production line must be commissioned within two months.

Years ago our Flashman, must be listed! ”

"Understood!" The crowd around him responded with a bow.

Shirakawa Kaede nodded with satisfaction, and then waved his hand to signal everyone to go about their work.

However, although it is a Flashman production line, it is mainly a machining part and an assembly line.

The production of PCBs and the placement of circuit boards cannot be done by Shirakawa Electric by itself.

First, because the equipment is too expensive, it often costs hundreds of thousands of millions, and Shirakawa Electric cannot afford it.

Because they are in dollars, they are converted into Japanese yen in tens of millions and billions.

The exchange rate difference of hundreds of times is so unreasonable.

However, even if there is money, Shirakawa Kaede is not ready to do it, because the production of PCBs involves chemical materials and is not very environmentally friendly.

This alone is estimated to be enough to be choked at this level of audit in Tokyo.

So he is ready to go OEM processing mode, but it is not completely OEM.

It's just that the circuit board part is commissioned to be processed.

The design was also designed by Shirakawa Electric, and the circuit board was produced by other manufacturers, and Shirakawa Electric was responsible for assembling it and the movement into the finished part.

At present, Shirakawa Electric has been negotiating cooperation with several capable manufacturers.

Once the conditions are negotiated, the circuit board part can be seen as soon as possible.

Shirakawa Kaede saw everyone leaving one after another, preparing to sort out the documents at hand, and then go back to Suginami District.

However, everyone else left, but Hui Yamazaki unexpectedly stayed.

"Eh, Yamazaki-senpai, is there anything else?" Shirakawa Kaede got up and motioned for him to sit down first, and then personally poured him a glass of water.

"Shirakawa-kun, you're too polite." Yamazaki Hui took the water cup with some tears and laughter, this junior brother really didn't have the shelf of the president Sang in private.

"Without Yamazaki senior, there would be no flashman, and Yamazaki senior is a well-deserved "Waka general" of our Shirakawa Electric."

"Shirakawa-kun has won the prize." Yamazaki Hui said politely, and then took the initiative to change the topic. "There's something I'd like to ask Shirakawa-kun."

"Oh~, Senior Yamazaki has any questions, but it doesn't hurt to say it, please be sure not to be polite."

Seeing Yamazaki Hui change the topic, Shirakawa Kaede smiled quietly, and he didn't dwell on it anymore.

"Mr. Kikuchi would like to ask Shirakawa-kun if there is still a shortage of trainees in the field of electronic applications..."

"Missing! Lack! That's what a shortage! ”

Before Hui Yamazaki's words were finished, Kaede Shirakawa's response had already been sent.

This is not the time to be reserved, he is a country boy, and the top students of Meiji come to study with you, and that is to promote you.

"Uh..."Although Yamazaki Hui expected it, Shirakawa Kaede's desire for talent still touched him a lot.

A president Sang who is so eager for talents, not to mention what the future achievements will be, and his own juniors and disciples don't have to worry about the treatment in the future.

"In this case, please leave it to Shirakawa-kun."

None of the other words were used, and in the end, Hui Yamazaki could only thank him like this.

"Please rest assured that Senior Yamazaki and Professor Kikuchi will always welcome all the seniors of the Ming Governance Engineering Department."

When it was time to make a statement, Shirakawa Kaede was not ambiguous at all.

He is not qualified to pick and choose now, and he can't ask for Meiji students to come.

Seeing off Hui Yamazaki, Kaede Shirakawa felt as much as witnessing the success of the Flashman prototype.

With the talent support of Kikuchi Laboratory, the shelves of Shirakawa Electric's R&D Department have really been set up.

This is the engine of Shirakawa Electric's sustainable development, and the stronger it is, the faster Shirakawa Electric will grow.

Shirakawa Kaede sat relaxed in the chair, the future is promising.

"Dididi"

The vibration in his pocket interrupted his reverie.

I took out the pager and took a look, hey, it's this one.

Shirakawa Kaede picked up the phone on the table and dialed back.

"Moximoxi? … Is Seiko-san going to make his debut? … Eh, now... Okay"

Hanging up the phone, Shirakawa Kaede looked at the sky outside the window. The stars are shining, and thousands of homes are on fire.

The pace is a bit slow, but we're even faster
