Coquettish Rebirth

The old man kept looking at Jia Hongjian, and he believed that Jia Hongjian would definitely come up with a very amazing idea, just like the few times he came up with very amazing ideas in the past.But Jia Hongjian is going to slap the old man in the face this time - really think that a good idea can break through the laws of physics and come here casually?No matter how awesome he is, Jia Hongjian, he can't make the USB drive reach a large capacity!yes?No matter how awesome the USB flash drive is these days, it can't make the USB flash drive several gigabytes!The popular USB flash drive on the market has just reached 64m, and the millennium version of their music pod has been upgraded with a configuration, but it has a storage space of 4m made up of four 64m storage chips!

Even with this 256m storage space, it is true that you can create a virtual system in it, and you can store a lot of things in it, but how many software can you install in it?Why does a game need three or four hundred megabytes of space these days?If the space is really large, there must be a space of 1g2g, unless it is said to be a mobile hard disk.And if it is made into a mobile hard drive, Jia Hongjian's foot size will be too large and it will not be portable, because the current mobile hard drive is generally a 2.5-inch notebook hard drive? For a 2.5-inch hard drive, that means the platters inside the hard drive, that is, the diameter of the "disc" should be 2.5 inches, which is about 6.35 centimeters.But as a hard disk, it is impossible to have this thing alone, and there are various reading needles, chips, and other messy things, so the external dimensions of the final 2.5-inch hard disk are 70mmx100mm.To be honest, this thing is still a bit big to hold in the hand, so it's not too...

etc!Jia Hongjian suddenly remembered something!When was the ipod in your sister's history released?Why did he vaguely remember the second batch of 10g ipods he bought.Although he didn't measure the size of the ipod at that time, but...why is it not as big as 70x100? If the 2.5-inch hard drive is 70x100, it is the size of half a palm!And the key point is that this size is only the size of the hard disk inside. If it is to be made like an apple and can be taken away casually, then there must be a case on the outside, and various small chips for control?Just like a 2.5-inch mobile hard drive, Jia Hongjian remembered that the size he used was about 12 cm x 8 cm, which is 80 x 120 according to the specification, and the unit is of course millimeters.Thus.Such a mobile hard disk is basically the size of a palm!That's why Jia Hongjian felt that the size of the mobile hard drive was still large!

但是如果按照手掌的大小来比划一下的话。贾鸿渐脚着自己买来的ipod尺寸怎么好像要比2.5英寸的硬盘小呢？怎么好像……好像就60x100的大小呢？这样的一个大小，肯定是比2.5英寸硬盘要小的啊！你妹的……这是记错了还是真的就小？好像是真的小……那苹果他们当年是选择了什么硬盘呢？好像是东芝的？东芝的硬盘可以做的这么小？是他们特别的东西？话说苹果到底是什么时候发售第一代的ipod的？好像是02年？等等，不对，还像是01年。因为他贾鸿渐买的是02年的第二版。他还记得买之前几个月出了911事件嘛！那911肯定就是01年。所以他买过来就是02年。如果这个没错的话，那么第一代的第一版的ipod，还只有5g大小。而且出的好像还比911更早！这么说来，实际上苹果起码在2000年下半年或者2001年的上半年，就已经订购了大量的5g容量的硬盘？那么也就是说ipod的东芝小硬盘应该现在就有？

Thinking of this, Jia Hongjian hurriedly asked the old man, "By the way, old man, besides the 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch hard drives, are there any smaller hard drives?" "Yes, in 92, Japan People invented the 1.8-inch hard drive, and then IBM developed the so-called micro-hard drive, which is 1.0-inch. Last year, it seemed that Toshiba said that they had developed a 0.85-inch ultra-small hard drive..." The old man nodded and said.

As soon as Jia Hongjian heard it, he was sure that the 1.8-inch hard drive used by Apple must have failed!And this 1.8-inch hard drive should be purchased now!According to the price analysis, companies like Apple are crazy about making money. Generally, the cost of materials is the cost of purchasing various components, which is only 3-4% of the selling price. The price of the first generation is 399 US dollars. If you calculate it this way, the purchase price of such a 1.8-inch hard drive should be below 160 US dollars?Maybe something like $140 to $150?

From this point of view, it costs more than 1000 yuan to convert to RMB. Although it is more expensive, it is understandable-just like the ssd solid-state drives of later generations, isn’t it normal that hard drives with special specifications are expensive?In the future, when a 1t hard drive sells for about 400 yuan, a 128g ssd sells for five or six hundred or even ** one hundred!So from this point of view, the price is not too expensive.And if Jia Hongjian and the others used such a 1.8-inch hard drive to make a portable system of a virtual system...and then, like the first version of Apple's iPod, get a 5G capacity, it should be enough for mobile use no matter what. ?

At that time, Jia Hongjian still remembered that the ipod was bigger than a cigarette case. It was actually not that big in a bag, and it was not even as big as a 3.5-inch mobile phone in later generations!In this way, the portability is considered to be available...but the price may be slightly more expensive...

"In this way, let's make two preparations. On the one hand, we make the overall virtual system so that it can be carried around or fixed on the desktop. In this way, if consumers are not willing to spend money, they can try our system for free. virtual system, and those who are willing to spend money can buy our portable system equipped with a 1.8-inch hard drive, which can be used anywhere...as long as the computer they find is not an Apple system! And steal away the data What the hell... We issued a disclaimer in advance to remind consumers not to put sensitive things in our system, so as not to lose them when they get lost. And our stuff is bigger than a cigarette case, and it is placed on the table That's too obvious! If you really want to steal something, it's better to use a USB flash drive! By the way, we can even make a data encryption scheme in such a system, so that consumers will not lose all their secrets after losing their portable system. Lost... Even in the future, we can also build an online backup system, which allows consumers to choose to pay monthly or yearly subscriptions, and then they can upload the data in their portable systems to our server for storage at any time, so that in the future The portable system is lost, so it doesn't mean that everything is lost..."

Jia Hongjian was truly "brain-opened" at this time. All kinds of fantasies came out all at once, and he even released the concept of online storage for later generations!Although it seems that the concept of network disk has long been in the music pod system, there is no encryption on the music pod system!It is not recommended to upload files other than music in the system's terms of service, so if the music pod is regarded as a small-capacity network disk, it is all caused by consumers themselves!Moreover, the capacity of the music pod is actually quite small. Among the capacities selected by consumers, the most common people can only get a space of 1g to 2g!But like Jia Hongjian said, the network disk that can be backed up at any time, the capacity may be as high as dozens of gigabytes!Of course, the fee will be higher!

"Okay!" The old man agreed, and wrote down what Jia Hongjian said just now in his little notebook, then nodded and prepared to follow the road planned by Xiao Jia.As for Jia Hongjian at this time, after "opening his mind" with the old man, he fell into deep thought again—didn't he just remember the time when Apple launched the iPod?I don't know if Apple will launch a hard disk version of the iPod at this time and space. After all, although Jia Hongjian's music pod has a small capacity, it has already seized too much market!

But he can't help but guard against Apple!What if Apple even says next year that it is already holding back the development of a hard drive version of the iPod?When people withdraw, the capacity will be 5g!Where is Jia Hongjian's music pod?At that time, the capacity will be 512m?This is almost only one-tenth of others!It has already been compared in terms of publicity alone!And we must know that the price of Jia Hongjian's music pods in recent years is still quite high!Even though the cost of materials has been reduced in various ways, the selling price basically remains at the two levels of $249 and $299!Although the ipod may be priced at $399, but for an extra $100, it will have ten times the capacity!Who wouldn't?

Even if Jia Hongjian doesn't respond and produces the same large-capacity product, but if this is suppressed by others, the product will definitely not be sold!This price will definitely drop all the way!At that time, if it sells for $99, no one may be willing to buy it. After all, it is not worthwhile in terms of the ratio of capacity to price.But $99 is basically less than the cost!

From this point of view, the simple application of flash memory chips to make mp3 is still inferior to ipod in terms of capacity at least!How will you compete then?In the past, Jia Hongjian and the others advertised that music pods can store all music and albums, and then pick out what you like and turn them into your own albums, while other people’s ipods can really stuff thousands of songs into them. It is really endless!How would Jia Hongjian deal with this? (To be continued..)
