I lost my vegetative state, and I became the richest man in the world

Chapter 1117 The VCD player is developed!

The biggest difference between Xiangjiang and Pretoria may be the temperature.

In Pretoria, it's around 20 degrees Celsius all summer long.

However, on the Xiangjiang side, the temperature in summer is as high as 30 degrees Celsius.

Ma Shuke's face often turns red easily, and now when he walks with his father on the streets of Xiangjiang, the heat makes his face even redder.

When night comes.

Errol and Mashuk went to the Happy Valley to watch the horse race.

Then went to Lan Kwai Fong for a drink.

It was not until late at night that Errol and Ma Shuke returned to the Oriental Mandarin Hotel by car.

On this day, they saw too many white people in Xiangjiang.

"Mashuke, how are you doing, do you like Xiangjiang?"

At the end of the day, Errol found that if it wasn't for the hot weather outside Xiangjiang during the day, he felt that Xiangjiang would be more suitable for life than Nanfei.

"Father, I'm not used to it yet."

Mashuke obviously feels that Xiangjiang is much more prosperous than Johannesburg, but Mashuke, who has just been here for a day, is still not used to it, and he still misses his studies and his classmates in Pretoria.

"I think many wealthy South Filipinos will immigrate to Xiangjiang soon."

Before Errol came to Xiangjiang, although Sir Yang talked about the benefits of immigrating to Xiangjiang at the rich party banquet that night, he really never thought about developing in Xiangjiang.

Now, at the end of the day, he can feel the charm of this city.

In other words, if those South Filipino rich people came here in person, they would definitely immigrate here in large numbers.

Take a night off.

Early the next day.

Errol took Ma Shuke out of the Oriental Mandarin Hotel and drove to the top of Victoria Peak.

. . .

at this time.

Yang Ming finished his breakfast.

Just about to go back to the Imperial Group with Alina and Yingla.

Lin Dezhong answered a call from Xiangjiang Science and Technology City.

"Young Master Yang, your phone number."

Yang Ming picked up the mobile phone, and after answering the call, he learned that the Xiangjiang Science and Technology City had already developed and produced the VCD according to what Yang Ming said, and the technology company invested by the Imperial Group in the Xiangjiang Science and Technology City.

At the beginning, Yang Ming went to Dongyang for the first time, and saw that there were karaokes in Ginza, Tokyo, which could be played through laser disc players, so he thought of VCD and DVD.

Historically, VCD players did not begin to appear and be commercially available until 1993.

Today, it is only 1986, a full seven years ahead of schedule.

With the emergence of VCD, Yang Ming knows that it is of great significance and value to global film and television, records and so on.

Historically, the world's first VCD player was developed by a domestic company named Wanyan.

Many people attribute the first success of Wanyan brand VCD to "inspiration + opportunity".

In April 1992, Jiang Wanmeng, who was still working at Anhui TV Station, went to country M to participate in the International Radio and Television Technology Exhibition.

In this exhibition, Jiang Wanmeng was firmly caught by MPEG decompression technology, an inconspicuous technology exhibited by C-CUBE Company of M Country.

Jiang Wanmeng is keenly aware that the MPEG technology, which can store images and sounds in a relatively small disc, means that a high-quality and low-cost audio-visual product can be created for ordinary people to use at home.

Sun Yansheng, the chairman of C-CUBE, happened to be a Chinese-American businessman. The two hit it off and decided to develop MPEG technology into electronic consumer products.

Jiang Wanmeng immediately invested 7 US dollars in development.

In September 1993, the two jointly developed the world's first VCD player in Hefei, named Wanyan.When it was put on the market at a "high price" of 9-4000 yuan each, the first batch of 5000 VCD players were all bought by various electronics manufacturers as soon as they were put on the market, and the sales were extremely hot.

When Wanyan was trying to make a big splash, Aiduo, Xinke, Xiaxin, Malata, Jinzheng, and Xianke flocked to the market one after another.The VCD products they produced by studying Wanyan's prototype immediately occupied most of the market.

From 1995 to 1997, the media used "blowout" to describe the grand occasion of the VCD market.Because she did not apply for a complete machine patent for her first invention, Wanyan gradually lost her advantage in the face of low-price competition from many brands, but the brilliance created by this brand has become a rich and colorful history in the home appliance industry.

But what Jiang Wanmeng didn't expect was that in just a few years, VCD rose rapidly in China and became popular all over the world, becoming a big industry with an annual sales revenue of more than 100 billion yuan.

就连电子工业发达的东洋、M国都要参照他研制的万燕VCD来生产。从1996年开始，国内的VCD市场每年以数倍的速度增长，销量从1995年的60万台猛增至1996年600多万台，1997年销售达到1000万台。

In just five years, the cumulative sales of VCD players has reached 5 million units, and it has given birth to well-known domestic brands such as Aiduo, Backgammon, and Shinco.

But Wanyan is in this industry, and its market share has dropped from 100% to 2%.

Talking about the reasons for the failure, Feng Yidan, the chairman of Wanyan Company, later said sadly that in terms of technology, Wanyan invented the VCD player, but did not apply for a patent. After it went public, it was imitated by domestic and foreign companies. The VCD industry has sufficient funds for market development.

But Wan Yan didn't have a shield to protect herself against the crowd of competitors.In terms of funds, Wanyan invested 1600 million US dollars in early research and development. At that time, ordinary people in China had almost zero knowledge of VCD. Yan has been embarrassed.

The shortage of funds made it difficult for Wanyan to move forward; in terms of market development, Wanyan lacked experience in marketing and did not pay attention to the market operation of products at the initial stage.

The funds are mainly deposited in the stage of technology development and market development. Compared with brands such as "Aiduo" who spend huge sums of money on advertisements to create momentum, Wanyan's marketing appears to be powerless and has not achieved momentum. Make wedding clothes.

At this time, when Yang Ming heard that the VCD was developed, he was really excited.

Because now, as far as black and white TVs are concerned, or even color TVs, they are nothing.

Even in China, with the rapid development of the country, more and more domestic families own color TVs.

In addition, the Netflix company that Yang Ming plans to establish in country M cannot develop without VCD and DVD players.

It's different now.

VCD was developed by an unknown technology company under the Imperial Group. As long as the Imperial Group registered the relevant patents in advance, they could get a lot of income and even patent fees in terms of VCD disc players.

Yang Ming knew.

The reason why VCD disc players can be developed ahead of time is now.

In addition to the theory that Yang Ming pointed out in advance, there is also a large amount of financial support, and the investment of talents from Xiangjiang Science and Technology City.In addition to the talents poached from M country and Dongyang now, the addition of talents from Sulian will accelerate the research and breakthrough of the Imperial Group in this area.
