Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 473 485 [Monopoly agency]

Los Angeles, Chinatown General Chinese Chamber of Commerce——
The boss, Hong Sen, with his hands behind his back, carefully looked at Song Zhichao's sample "VCD", turning left and right, looking very carefully.

Standing behind Hun Sen are two men, one is his adopted son Hong Ying, and the other is a well-dressed, black-haired, mousse-clad gentleman man in a black suit, about 37 or eight years old, with a square face, She looks a bit like Hun Sen.

"A Chao, this is the VCD that you tried desperately to convince Mike to ask him to be the endorser?" Hun Sen stretched out his hand, touched the VCD player, then pressed lightly, and with a click, the VCD case opened, revealing the disc loaded inside. .

"According to what you said, the movie we watched just now was recorded on this?" Very curious, Hun Sen pinched the disc out with his fingers, looked left and right, and couldn't understand such a thin disc. How can such a long movie be loaded? Both the sound effect and the definition are higher than the original video tape.

After being amazed, the old man turned around to look at Song Zhichao and said, "Now you're all right, Mike has been persuaded by you and agreed to help you as an endorsement, then your VCD will soon become popular all over the world, how about it, are you interested in it?" Set up a distribution point in the U.S. too?"

As expected of an old fox, an old Jianghu, a veteran who has experienced the ups and downs of the business world, Hun Sen immediately smelled the business opportunities hidden in it.

You must know that the United States is the most economically developed place in the world, and the video rental industry in the United States is also the most developed. That is to say, the number of households with video recorders in the United States ranks first in the world, and almost every three households have a video recorder. , and then I rent my favorite videos to watch with my family on weekends.

Not to mention anything else, according to statistics, just after the movie "First Blood" of American Hollywood superstar Stallone was officially released, it once set a record of 8000 million rentals in a month in the rental of video tapes in the United States-- ——This reflects from another aspect that the penetration rate of video recorders in the United States has reached an unbelievable level, that is to say, there are at least 8000 million users of video recorders in the United States.

Now, the so-called "VCD" invented by Song Zhichao has the possibility of completely replacing the original video recorder.

The reasons are as follows: the video recorder is heavy, and the VCD machine is lighter; the video tape is not easy to save, and the picture quality will deteriorate after a long time, but the CVD disc does not have this shortcoming; the video picture quality and sound quality are not as good as the VCD; and As the world's largest economic power, Americans are most keen to lead the trend and accept new things, especially new technologies.

Regardless of his age, Hun Sen's mind turned quickly, and he had already analyzed the pros and cons clearly in a short period of time.

Such a huge market, such an amazing consumer group, if a VCD machine is priced at 500 US dollars - that is a share worth 500 billion.

500 billion US dollars, what kind of concept is that?
Thinking of this, Hun Sen sucked in a breath of air. He already had some calculations in his mind, so he asked Song Zhichao if he wanted to set up a distribution point in the United States.

Song Zhichao smiled slightly: "I haven't thought about it yet."

"Hey, young people should be more profitable in doing things, and they must know how to strike while the iron is hot-the market waits for no one. What if your product is launched and there are imitations?"

"Oh, don't worry about this. I have applied for world patents for many technical aspects of this VCD, so in the United States, a country that attaches great importance to patent rights, I don't think there is such a worry."

Hun Sen rolled his eyes, "Then you have to plan ahead, how about this, since you and I are destined, I have already helped you, why don't you help me again, what kind of VCD distribution rights in the United States, I buy out It's—well, $5000 million, how about it?"

"Dad!"

"master!"

The ones who spoke were the gentleman and Hong Ying.

In their view, it was too hasty for Hun Sen to make such a big decision—this is just a VCD sample, and it cost 5000 million US dollars to buy it out. If this product fails, it will not be a big loss.

"Father, I think you'd better think carefully about the buyout!" The gentleman man is Hun Sen's precious son John Hong, who is also a Chinese-American councilor of the Los Angeles City Government. Because of his career in politics, he always likes to do things safely. .

Hun Sen smiled wryly in his heart, you think my actions are arbitrary and hasty, but the other party may not be willing to let me buy it out.

Sure enough, Song Zhichao smiled and said, "Yes, Master Hong, this kind of thing can't be rushed, and I don't intend to sell the agency rights yet."

Song Zhichao is not stupid. Selling the agency rights is tantamount to giving the big American market to the Hong family for nothing—even though Song Zhichao had a very good relationship with the Hong family in his previous life, he would not make such a low-level mistake.Because he knows the future market of VCD better than anyone else.

As soon as Hong Sen heard this, he understood Song Zhichao's meaning. He was already tactfully rejecting him. It was ridiculous that his precious son and adopted son beside him were relieved, thinking that they had not fallen into Song Zhichao's "trap".

"Well, let's discuss this matter in the long run." Hun Sen made up his mind, anyway, Song Zhichao would stay in Los Angeles for a few days, and he still had a chance.

……

Song Zhichao and his group left and went back to the Zhonghua Building where they stayed.

Later, John Hong couldn't help but said to his father Hun Sen: "Abba, this Hongkonger is unreliable."

"Why is it unreliable?" Hun Sen took off his shoes habitually, stepped on the round chair with one foot, held the wine glass with the other hand, and sipped the wine.

John Hong glanced at Hong Ying and said, "Hong Ying told me everything, and these Hong Kong people didn't know where they learned the secret sign language of our Hong family, so they came all the way to ask you for help...Your heart Well, I don’t see my compatriots wanting more from themselves, but who knows what these people are thinking? Let’s just say that VCD looks amazing, but have you ever thought about it? Now that VCRs are popular all over the world, who would spend Buy this VCD player at a high price? Even if you buy this player, where can you buy its discs?"

After a pause, John Hong continued: "It is precisely because Ah Ying knew this that she notified me and asked me to come back to persuade you, so that you will not be fooled by Song Zhichao --- 5000 million US dollars is not a small sum! Although I'm not in business, but I also know what it means to 'circle money', you can't see through this kind of trick, right?"

Hun Sen looked at his swearing son, didn't speak, just squeezed the wine glass and drank the spirit inside.

At this time, a voice said: "Why don't you buy it out? I think this is a rare opportunity." The voice was clear and clear, like a warbler's cry.

Everyone looked back, only to see a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl walking in at some time.
