Chapter 173: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
Even though the current backgammon is facing a lot of external pressure, Chu Qing still hasn't stopped his steps.
On the one hand, it is laying out the domestic industry, and it is also accelerating the cooperation of DVD. With the relationship between Sun Yansheng and JVC, BBK took the initiative to join their DVD alliance without any hindrance.
After all, Toshiba at this time, because of the 87 years, most of the business was transferred to the mainland market.
It's also very good for them to be good friends with backgammon. Moreover, BBK has technology two years ahead of time, and there is surround sound in audio.
Not only can it speed up the development of DVDs, but it can also make up for the shortcomings of Toshiba and JVC in audio.
This made the DVD Alliance, which was originally lagging behind Sony, catch up and overtake in an instant. By this time, although the DVD had not yet been released, the dispute had reached a fever pitch, and whoever launched the standard first would have the right to speak.
Although Sony's small actions against backgammon have not been broken, in terms of public opinion, it can't hurt backgammon much.
Backgammon has reached its current size, which is not the same as a year ago. Whether it is "The Voice of China" or the recent "Music Billboard", BBK has erected a good positive image in front of the national audience.
In particular, the "Computer Weekly", which has been in circulation, has become BBK's own public opinion position, and in a year and a half, more than 5 million yuan is not in vain.
Chinese have never been dumber than others, people in this era, but there are few news channels, and then there are various public knowledge to occupy the right to speak.
Naturally, what they see is very one-sided. But with an objective and impartial magazine like "Computer Weekly", it constantly shows them the real world of other cities.
Naturally, everyone will have their own judgment. So in the face of Sony's deliberate smearing, backgammon is not afraid at all.
When VCD first appeared, relying on smear and suppression, it is estimated that it can also bring a lot of harm to backgammon.
After all, the market was blank at that time, and the reputation was bad before it was listed.
However, after more than a year of layout, today's VCD has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In many places, it has become the standard for the three major pieces of marriage.
With a comprehensive ecological layout, the domestic VCD market has completely sunk to various towns and villages.
Of course, now there are more than 10,000 towns and villages in the country, and only half of them have backgammon franchise stores. But at this point, Sony is trying to crack down on the VCD industry by smearing, which is basically impossible.
And after the technology is released, this is no longer a matter of BBK, in the VCD player industry, this year, has poured into many manufacturers.
They are now grasshoppers on a rope with backgammon. The only trouble is the interruption of the supply of chips, and there will be a short gap in the VCD of BBK.
In the past two months, it has indeed given Lianhua the opportunity to harvest many manufacturers in this wave. However, there are only two months left for Lianhua.
From next month, the decoding chip in cooperation with Huajing will be put into production. With backgammon technical support, there is a domestic low cost.
When the chip goes on the market, it can completely drive Lianhua out. It's just that compared to fighting backgammon, suppressing Lianhua.
Chu Qing had one more important matter. ……
"Comrade, smoking is not allowed here." As soon as he put the cigarette in his mouth, Chu Qing was scolded by a passing nurse before he could light the fire.
He threw the cigarette into the trash, looked back at the closed door of the operating room, and rubbed his hands anxiously.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem, Dr. Huang was specially invited from Xiangjiang." Xiao Yang on the side patted Chu Qing's shoulder.
He's a guy who knows how nervous it is to be a father for the first time. Seeing that he kept rubbing his hands, Xiao Yang took out something from his pocket: "You can't smoke cigarettes, let's have this." ”
"What's that?" Chu Qing took a look, and the vacuum plastic package was printed with two words: betel nut!
"How do you eat this?" Chu Qing looked at Xiao Yang, he didn't pay attention just now, he only knew that he had been chewing, and thought it was chewing gum, but he didn't expect it to be this thing.
"It's better than smoking. Don't you know, since we have Xiaobao in our family, my sister-in-law won't let me smoke. It just so happened that a boss recommended this to me, and I eat this on non-smoking occasions, and the effect is not bad. Xiao Yang looked proud, spit out the betel nut in his mouth, and was ready to eat it again after taking out one.
"This is really good, although smoking hurts the body, you can pay attention, it's still okay to live seventy or eighty. If you eat this thing for a few more years, your lifespan will be halved. Chu Qing saw that he was chewing happily, and couldn't help but snort.
"What? What does halving lifespan mean? Isn't this just a snack? Xiao Yang, who felt a little confused, looked at Chu Qing with a puzzled expression.
"This year, the Xiamen government banned the production, sale and consumption of betel nuts in the jurisdiction, don't you know? This thing is a first-class carcinogen, and you can get cancer if you eat it. "In 1994, a document was issued with a clear request to stop selling betel nuts.
However, more than 20 years have passed, and not only have they not banned sales, but they have sold more and more.
"Poof!" Xiao Yang, who was still chewing just now, rushed to the trash can, and spit out his tongue in one breath.
Hearing about the cancer of eating betel nut, Xiao Yang was directly scared into a cold sweat. In recent years, the concept of cancer has not been introduced to China for a long time.
With the current medical conditions in China, having cancer is basically equivalent to a death sentence, so it is also called a terminal illness.
"Can this really cause cancer?" After spitting out Xiao Yang, he was still a little uncertain, he believed in Chu Qing 100%, but he didn't know until he had eaten for half a year, and now he asked this sentence, but he didn't dare to face it subconsciously.
"It's really carcinogenic, but you need to eat it for a long time. If you eat for a few more years, it is estimated that there is no salvation. Chu Qing didn't want to scare him, the carcinogenesis of betel nut had only been reported in the past few years.
However, this thing has been popular since more than a thousand years ago, and eating less is not a big problem, but those who eat him like cigarettes are sure to cause cancer.
"Then these profiteers, all the carcinogenic things are sold?" Thinking of the businessman who sold it to him for the first time, Xiao Yang was angry.
"People want to make money and develop! Not to mention that eating too much can cause cancer, and they dare to sell poisons that will kill you immediately after drinking, let alone this. Besides, the cigarette case also says 'smoking is bad for your health', but you haven't smoked yet. ”
"That~......" Xiao Yang snorted twice, and looked at the cigarette case in Chu Qing's pocket with some embarrassment.
"Wow~!" Just when the two were about to continue the discussion, the cigarette and betel nut were more toxic. A loud baby cry came from the operating room.
Although he had already experienced this kind of scene once in his previous life, Chu Qing still felt that his heart was beating very fast.
"6 pounds and 2 taels." As soon as he approached the door, Chu Qing heard the nurse's report. A few simple words, but it made half of his heart drop in an instant.
"We're about the same, and my son was only a little over six pounds when he was born." Xiao Yang, who also heard it, also answered casually.
However, before the two of them could relax, the nurse's exclamation immediately came from inside: "Wait a minute! There's another one in there, hurry up~ It's coming out soon. Chu Qing, who was still happy just now, instantly stood in place.
"Well, you're better than me. Just two at once! Xiao Yang, who was also shocked, looked at Chu Qing with envy, and it took a long time to hold back such a sentence.
