Chapter 1680
Although installing an anti-piracy chip will increase the production cost of some VCDs, it is completely acceptable compared to the profits brought by this product.

At present, the price of imported laser disc players in the Chinese market is about 1 yuan, and the cheapest is 9000 to 3000 yuan. After evaluation, the cost of each VCD is about 5000 yuan, and the price is set at [-] yuan. Absolutely It will quickly replace imported laser disc players and become the new favorite of national audio-visual entertainment.

And with the innovation of technology and the improvement of output, the cost of VCD will be lower and lower, and the final cost may be reduced to about 1000~2000.

In the previous life, 1997 was the most popular year for domestic VCDs. At that time, there were many VCD brands in China, such as Aiduo, Xinke, Malata, Jinzheng, and Xianke. The media used blowout to describe the grand occasion of the VCD market.

Moreover, in those few years, VCD not only rose rapidly in China, but also quickly became popular all over the world, becoming a large industry with an annual sales revenue of more than 100 billion. Even Japan and the United States with developed electronic industries have to refer to China's VCD for production.

In addition, since 1996, China's VCD market has grown several times each year, with sales soaring from 1995 units in 60 to 1996 million units in 600, and 1997 million units in 1. In just 000 years of use, the cumulative sales of VCD players has reached 5 million units, and it has given birth to famous domestic brands such as Aiduo, Backgammon, and Jinke.

Duan Yun intends to realize mass production of VCDs before March next year, which is a year and a half earlier than when Jiang Wanmeng developed the world's first VCD player in September 3. At that time, Wanyan brand As soon as the VCD was put on the market, it was bought by various electronic manufacturers to make prototypes, and the sales were extremely hot.

Before that, Duan Yun also needs to register the product as a patent at home and abroad, and at the same time let the scientific research personnel complete the final preparations before mass production.

But there is a big problem here, that is, the production capacity of Tianyin Electronics Factory.

At present, Tianyin Group's learning machines, repeaters, and video recorders occupy a large number of factory equipment, production lines and staff. If Duan Yun wants to produce repeaters, he needs to open another factory and build a new factory building and production line.

However, the situation in the Shenzhen Industrial Zone is not what it used to be. Even for a large taxpayer like Tianyin Group, it is very difficult to apply for an industrial land in the Shenzhen Industrial Zone, and it takes a long time to build a new factory building and install a new production line. , It will take more than a year at the earliest, and by that time, according to the historical process of the previous life, Wanyan VCD has already begun to be listed.

So the best way is that Duan Yun needs to temporarily shut down the production lines of some electronic products to free up production capacity to produce VCDs. After all, the profit of VCDs is much higher than that of other electronic products. Computers and other products, under the siege of countless counterfeit manufacturers, have begun to enter the era of meager profits.

Learning machines and repeaters began to be copied by a large number of copycats. In fact, it taught Duan Yun a lesson. Duan Yun deeply realized that in current China, the Chinese people’s awareness of patents is very weak, the cost of rights protection is too high, and the protection is not in place. , and because the interests of too many people are involved, local protectionism is very serious. Many local governments know that the products are illegal copycats, but still protect the manufacturers. This makes it very difficult for Duan Yun to deal with copycat competitors.

Moreover, the current Tianyin Group can be said to be very popular, and its products are constantly imitated by other manufacturers. Even when new products are launched, they are bought by other manufacturers as samples, and then reverse imitated. The domestic patent protection is almost useless.

Therefore, in order to prevent products from being imitated and plagiarized in China, the best way is to increase the anti-theft level and product technical threshold. It is best to ensure that VCD products have a profit cycle of 2 to 3 years. The cloud has already earned enough profits, and at the same time, the product has been upgraded technologically, and the cost has been reduced to the minimum. Even if the price is reduced, sufficient profit margins can be guaranteed.

Compared with the profits of learning machines and repeaters, the profits of Tianyin Group's video recorders have also begun to decline.

Especially once a product like VCD is on the market, video recorders will gradually be eliminated by the market, which is also an inevitable trend of market development.

Although imported laser disc players have appeared on the market, the sales of Tianyin Group's video recorders have not been greatly affected. The main reason is that the price of imported laser disc players is too expensive, often ranging from 9000 to 1 The price of a block is prohibitive. Relatively speaking, the video recorder, which is generally priced at 5000 yuan, is still the most popular audio-visual product among Chinese people at present due to its low price and relatively mature technology.

However, once VCDs of the same price are on the market, VCRs will be quickly eliminated. Judging from the popularity of VCDs in the previous life, traditional VCRs will begin to decline and gradually disappear from the market within a year or two at the earliest.

So Duan Yun's decision to push VCD to the market now is actually tantamount to cutting off his other source of income. Although it will not have much impact in the short term, in two or three years, the production line of video recorders will stop sooner or later. things.

However, Duan Yun has already thought of another way, which is to resell the entire production line and technology of the video recorder.

It cost more than 2000 million U.S. dollars to introduce this production line segment from Japan. In addition to the technological upgrades and improvements over the years, a lot of money has been invested successively, and there are some top electronic technologies in China. These technologies It is also used in the production line of learning machines and repeaters, so even if video recorders will be eliminated in the future, it is absolutely impossible for Duan Yun to sell related technologies and production lines cheaply.

And now Duan Yun is very short of money, especially a large amount of foreign exchange. The hole of hundreds of millions of dollars has not been filled up to now. In addition, the investment and production of VCD production lines also need to spend a lot of money. These are major problems that need to be solved. .

After a period of consideration, Duan Yun decided to go to Ma Fuyuan.

Throughout Shenzhen in the 80s, the Tianyin Group founded by Duan Yun and the SEG Group led by Ma Fuyuan can be said to be the two giants in Shenzhen's electronics industry. , are not as good as the Tianyin Group, and there is even a big gap, but there are still many things worth mentioning.

Today's SEG electronic supporting market is developing very rapidly. The number of employees in the market has grown from a few thousand to tens of thousands, the number of shops is as high as 3000, and the average daily passenger flow has reached 6 to 10.

In the 80s, Zhongguancun and Shenzhen Huaqiangbei could be said to be the two largest electronic markets in the north and the south, but now, the development speed of Huaqiangbei Electronics Street, which is dominated by Shenzhen SEG Electronics Market, is obviously faster than that of Zhongguancun. , it can be said that it is a stable voltage. The success of the SEG electronics market has also brought extremely rich profits to the SEG Group. In recent years, the trend of internationalization has begun, and more and more foreign well-known electronics companies have begun to settle in SEG, making it the most dynamic electronics market in China.
