I really don't want to fight with gods

Chapter 1415 Go, work in an electronics factory
Souni must have been working on every possible music player.

Digital players also have various technical reserves.

But the problem with the 90s is that too many directions equals no direction.

For example, Sunny chose the wrong format on the video tape, which resulted in a mess on the home video recorder, and he went to the doctor in a hurry to acquire Columbia Pictures.

So such a seemingly small music player, from project approval to completion, means a series of double or even multiple-choice questions. If one of them is wrongly chosen, it will be taught by the market to be a man.

This is actually one of the reasons why coke basin manufacturers release new models every three days in this era, and the mass production is very small. To test the market reaction, they dare not bet casually.

The complete solution proposed by Jing Xiaoqiang can be called sleepy pillow, and the major manufacturers in the world may not have the ability to realize it.

The pinnacle of applied electronics.

So to make this music player, which is much less difficult than VAIO, is just a matter of two or three weeks.

The rest is how to plan sales and strive to occupy the global market with tens of millions of sales...

Wow haha!
Think happy.

But Sugimoto didn't expect that Jing Xiaoqiang was aiming at the music copyright.

How big is the income from music copyrights? After 20 years, Jay Chou's records will be sold in the Chinese area, and he has no new works all year long, so it goes without saying that he can earn hundreds of millions of dollars a year.

A little friend once helped him write five songs for more than ten years, and he was able to support his family with tens of millions every year.

This is the power of collecting money once the Internet becomes global.

And how much does an ordinary music player cost?

Apple’s first generation of IPOD, dare to sell it for $399 is already very shameless cutting leeks and killing beliefs.

But at that time, hard disk storage and LCD panels were expensive.

Tens of millions of units are sold, how much net profit can we get after excluding production costs and marketing costs?

Can it be compared with the sale of music rights at almost no cost?
And now the world's largest music copyright owner, it is estimated that the top three are Sunny, Jing Xiaoqiang, and Mi Gao.

Sunny's original idea of ​​acquiring Columbia Records and Columbia Pictures was to focus on the song and movie copyright libraries of these two established Citigroup companies.

Later, they supported singers in Citigroup, Asia, and Europe and purchased copyrights. Many Hong Kong and Taiwan singers are their copyright contracts.

Belongs to the old landlord of music copyright.

Without Jing Xiaoqiang, most of Mi Gao's copyrights would be on Sunny Records.

As for the root cause of his copper smelting scandal and litigation farce, it is said that he bought a huge music copyright package at his peak, which included many copyrights of top celestial groups like the Beatles.

Make everyone salivate.

Mi Gao really attracted hunting because he was like a child carrying a gold nugget in the downtown area.

Among them, there are even shadows of Sunny Records.

Seeing this kind of dispute over copyright interests that cost hundreds of millions at every turn, you will definitely not see any warm and affectionate hello, hello, hello, everyone.

All are trying their best to maximize.

In this situation, Mi Gao became more and more like an unprotected child.

Why in Citigroup, a rich man's paradise, and a billionaire, he will be treated so badly.

Isn't it because too many people coveted the benefits.

Only when Jing Xiaoqiang is so talented in cross-border operations, sharing benefits evenly, and making more capital profits while becoming stronger, can all parties speak well.

So Jing Xiaoqiang took some shares to Mi Gao in exchange for these copyrights when the "Internet Broadcasting Forum" was listed this time. It is safer for the two to hold it together.

Of course, his starting point was that he would not be able to get cash for the stock money anyway, so he simply gave Mi Gao some points to reduce his sense of existence.

In fact, after listing, this part of the stock quickly became worth tens of billions of dollars, far exceeding the copyright value of Migao.

After all, no matter how profitable music copyright is, it is not as magical as Internet stocks.

Then Jing Xiaoqiang's own line, from classical music to pop music, has become the most valuable group existence among popular singers.

He and Mi Gao have the absolute top copyright in the world, the champion and runner-up of the Jiaopen women's sales list for two consecutive years, the most popular double bonus stick for men and women in HK, the hottest hip-hop and hot dance singer in Citigroup, and the hot girls who are crushing everywhere in Europe group, plus Hollywood's largest soundtrack company.

These copyrights are the most valuable treasury, and the value of a single song must far exceed those of Sunny's old inventory.

But how to realize such a huge music copyright?

In the past, we could only rely on selling albums and various commercial applications.

Now Jing Xiaoqiang has easily borrowed from Apple's way of selling IPODs. It seems to be selling players. In the early stage, free downloads are given away, but in the later stage, they must be charged, forming a closed industry circle.

Wouldn't the bounty of money just come?
Moreover, this is a commercial income that is not listed and does not come from Wall Street, just like selling shoes and computers, and the money earned can be transferred as a matter of course.

Later generations of Apple made a lot of money by selling IPOD and IPHONE, but they were able to reach a market value of two trillion U.S. dollars because of the closed industrial circle built by Apple itself to form an irreplaceable moat.

This is the core of Apple's ability to be proud of the world.

Jing Xiaoqiang may not see the brilliance of Apple in this life.

And all of this, Jing Xiaoqiang alone is not easy to achieve.

It is so difficult for him to be an electric rice cooker, not to mention Suony's mature and complete global sales network.

Therefore, when the mainland was still far from being able to participate, Jing Xiaoqiang could only rely on Sunny: "It is necessary to build a factory in the mainland. Once the trial production is successful, I request to be able to ship at an annual output of one million to ten million. In the shortest possible time, let the whole world use SONY-KING to listen to music, make it cheaper, earn less, and make it impossible for competitors to follow suit..."

This is Internet thinking, where one family dominates and the winner takes all.

It was also difficult for the big companies and big brands in the past to do this.

Because all countries in the world can fight separately, even if they stick to a corner of a country, they can survive the brand.

Consumers have a certain lack of information and don't know what to use elsewhere.

But the Internet will let the whole world know what player is the most popular in Xinxiang now, and after wearing the hottest, trendiest and coolest sneakers, the ostentatious social attributes will far exceed the basic functions of the sneakers themselves.

So big brands are likely to take all the world.

Apple products just capture the success of this globalization channel.

It doesn't matter whether the iPhone is good or not, the important thing is that the iPhone can highlight a certain symbol.

Jing Xiaoqiang probably understood, and he even realized that this music player might be the pioneer of smart phones in the future.

Once people get used to such a multimedia gadget, wouldn't it be logical to add a mobile phone module?

There's something going on.

He desperately grasped the point of view that building factories in the mainland can reduce costs as much as possible: "Think about how much money you can make by buying players, and selling songs is the most profitable, almost free of cost, and the current network speed is not good. , then we equip each audio-visual product store with a VAIO computer, unlock it online, and transfer songs stored in the hard disk from the computer to the player. It is cheap, a song is ten cents or fifty cents, tens of millions of users, a year How many songs do we have to buy in the four seasons, we will upgrade the player every one or two years, with larger capacity, stronger functions, and better sound quality..."

In the European and American markets where piracy is almost zero, this is the business that all capitalists yearn for the most.

What is that player?
Sugimoto was almost full of praise: "Once we get this hardware and software situation together, other music copyrights will not be able to compete with us, no matter what CD or video tape format, in the end we can only use our format?!"

Jing Xiaoqiang is kind and rich: "No, no, we are open to music copyright parties. They put in music copyrights, we collect money, everyone adds two to one, and department stores belong to us. Selling it on our shelves is a sales model that can be continuously upgraded and improved with the development of future technology. For example, in the future, the download speed of the Internet will be fast enough, and our music download website will be able to charge fees by itself. Hundreds of millions of players have been sold all over the world, so wouldn't the daily income be credited to the account?"

Sugimoto couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

The two parties worked hand in hand to discuss and write down the memorandum of cooperation. Jing Xiaoqiang owns the patent and copyright of the music player, and then authorized Suni to produce it, but the manufacturing was actually outsourced to build factories around Shanghai.

The inside of the player will definitely involve a series of patented technologies for components and accessories, which is equivalent to a cooperative relationship between the two parties.

In the end, Jing Xiaoqiang still only charged ten dollars for the patent copyright fee for each player.

The key is that the charging model for the music website to be established next will simultaneously build servers in Jiaopen, Citigroup, and Ailaner. This company is a multinational music management organization jointly held by Jing Xiaoqiang and Sugimoto. Sunny, MR.KING full authorization.

Sugimoto designated his children to share the shares and participate in the operation.

Isn't this capitalist corruption model easily solved?
No matter how important Sugimoto is in Suuni, it is only a small shareholder who gets an annual salary, and it is not bad to have a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars.

This music online distribution company, even if it is not listed on NASDAQ, is the world's leading music copyright monopoly!

If it goes public one day, it will definitely explode at the level of tens of billions of dollars!

Who would resist leaving such a generous legal fortune to their children.

Of course, Souni Company will also make a lot of money from player sales and music copyright downloads, and there will be no acts of false public benefit in the accounts.

It is reasonable to authorize the Internet digital download charging project to Robert's company, which has not been carried out by Souni.

Otherwise, with Jing Xiaoqiang's current fame and status, even looking for other Jiaopen home appliance brands at random will not delay the development of this project. The music copyrights of him, Mi Gao, Nakamori, Sakai and others are enough to support the start.

Choosing to cooperate with Sunny depends on Mr. Sugimoto's face and personal relationship. Of course, there is nothing wrong with arranging his children to such a matching company.

So under this premise, Sugimoto of course fully supports other details of the cooperation with Jing Xiaoqiang.

It is reasonable to go to Shanghai, a narrow strip of water, to start production of the first and second generation LCD panel factories, and to outsource the relatively large-scale players to the factory established by Robert himself, and to assist the factory in the production of peripheral accessories in Shanghai, right?

In particular, Jing Xiaoqiang will hold the largest 40.00% stake in the new communication consortium, which he reached with Mr. Inada Kazuo, and Mr. Inada will be the president of the company to be responsible for the overall operation and management, but Suony (and Jing Xiaoqiang) has the decision-making The agreement of the veto is handed over to Souni.

Sunny's board of directors laughed from ear to ear.

Without investing a penny, just adding Robert's 160 billion U.S. dollars to his own technology and marketing power, he obtained the status of major shareholder of this super-large communication consortium with a total valuation of nearly [-] billion U.S. dollars, successfully entered the communication market, and controlled Internet Highway.

Thanks Rosanne!

So less than two weeks later, when Jing Xiaoqiang finally returned to China, the four first- and second-generation LCD panel production lines were eagerly dismantled and transported to Shanghai to build a factory.

In fact, Jing Xiaoqiang just called Daqiang's mother, and the Digital Head Research Institute, which had been transferred to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, immediately organized manpower to join the factory.

The opportunity to fully learn foreign advanced electronic technology has finally arrived.
