Rebirth 2002: Nano Life

January 8th, at 8:00 in the morning.

Outside the ces venue, the sky was clear and blue, and the crowd was like weaving.

At nine o'clock, ces officially opened. Fumio Otsubo, president of Panasonic AVC Network Company, gave a speech on the theme of "creative life", and declared that Panasonic's future consumer electronics product development will mainly take 3d as the main pillar, namely sd, dvd and dtv .

The so-called sd is solid storage, the main development of dvd technology is mainly concentrated in dvd recorders and blu-ray HD high-definition DVD, and dtv refers to digital television broadcasting.

Looking at the high-spirited Daping Fumio on the stage, Chen Yizhe knew that in the future with the yen's unequal appreciation, and the shrinking of the TV industry, the future Panasonic will decline.

In the future, it is not only Panasonic that will decline in the RB electromechanical industry, Sanyo Electric will no longer exist, Sharp will enter the banner of Taiwan Capital, and Toshiba will actually disintegrate...

Chen Yizhe is very happy to see the decline of RB enterprises in the future, because it shows the rise of domestic enterprises.

Chen Yizhe and Yang Zhihao did not stay at the company's booth, but watched around with the bustling crowd. After all, many products at the booth were not displayed yesterday.

"Damn, I was almost late. I waited around and waited for Xiao Chen early in the morning. It was only after someone called to find out that he was shot last night. As expected, the United States has no domestic security." While walking, Yang Zhihao said to Chen Yizhe. Tucao.

"Didn't you say he was shot because of his gambling debts?" Chen Yizhe said.

"Alas, this wonderful young man, once he came to the United States, he was willing to degenerate." Yang Zhihao sighed.

"No one is forcing him, this is his own path, and he can only blame himself. Let's not talk about him, let's take a good look at the products of other companies now!" Chen Yizhe said.

The two walked to the Panasonic booth next to the Xiameng Electronics booth. In addition to the display of pdp plasma and LCD TVs with various sizes of screens, the Panasonic booth was more attractive to be equipped with SD memory cards. audio-visual materials.

"The technology of this little RB is really amazing!" Yang Zhihao said, looking at the miniature camcorder that was as thin as a mobile phone and could be held in the palm of his hand.

This camcorder, priced at $400, is relatively compact in size. Chen Yizhe looked at the detailed introduction. The camcorder weighs only 120 grams, and instead of using a traditional tape as a recording medium, a high-speed sd solid-state memory card is used to memorize images and sounds.

"Is this kind of memory card capable of being made in China?" Yang Zhihao asked.

Chen Yizhe shook his head and explained, "Solid storage, flash memory and other flash memory technologies are all in the hands of Japanese and Korean companies, and even if the domestic technology can obtain this technology, it is difficult to create."

Chips are a high-end manufacturing industry, which has always been a weak point in China. In the face of the blockade of developed countries in Europe and the United States for a long time, even if you have money, you cannot obtain advanced manufacturing technology. This is why Chen Yizhe acquired Yide to develop 3D printing technology.

Chen Yizhe continued, "The main technical difficulty in chip wafer manufacturing lies in manufacturing, which requires an advanced lithography machine, which is a very high-precision device that cannot be manufactured in China and is limited by the blockade of the Wassenaar Agreement. It is basically impossible to buy such high-tech equipment in China.”

"Isn't that what 'Batumi'?" Yang Zhihao said.

"Batumi is the predecessor of the Wassenaar Agreement. In fact, it is not only the chip wafer business, but also other high-end manufacturing processes. China is also facing a long-term technical embargo. If my country wants to make progress in these businesses, the only thing it can do , is to move forward step by step through independent research and development.”

"And European and American countries have been observing my country's chip manufacturing industry. Once there is a breakthrough in some aspects, they will reduce the price of chips in this area accordingly, vigorously squeeze the development of domestic chips, and enterprises will be strangled in the cradle. "

Chen Yizhe remembered his last life, and finally bought a lithography machine in China, but it was a relatively backward instrument, and it was a process that was facing elimination, because at that time, the international lithography machine process had broken through to 7nm, while the domestic ones were It is 22nm, and the gap is basically several generations.

"These foreign forces are indeed very insidious. When our country develops, we will play with them like this in the future!" Yang Zhihao, an angry youth, said indignantly.

"There will be a chance." Chen Yizhe smiled.

After strolling around, Chen Yizhe found that this year's CES should be regarded as a grand event where flat-panel display equipment fully displayed its style. This time, the proportion and scale of various display equipment in the hall was a bit surprising to him.

Especially on this side of the prominent central exhibition hall, there are colorful TV screens everywhere, and there are pdp and lcd flat-screen TVs and monitors of various sizes in other locations of the conference.

Among them, the aggressive 80-inch plasma TV and 57-inch LCD TV displayed by Samsung, which won the award, are not only the largest in the exhibition hall, but also the largest in the world. The crowd watching the plasma TV was also amazed, and a lot of reporters kept interviewing and taking pictures there.

Samsung's operating performance in recent years has always been at the forefront of similar companies in the world. If Apple in future generations only focuses on electronics, then Samsung in future generations is a giant that extends its tentacles to various fields.

"This screen is really big. If the e-paper TV had a 60-inch size, it probably wouldn't be a problem last night." Yang Zhihao looked at the plasma TV and said relaxedly.

"It's not bad to win an award, Brother Yang, don't be greedy." Chen Yizhe said with a smile, in fact, he can actually make a larger screen e-paper TV. After all, the e-paper TV at home is 70 inches, but Mass production of such a large screen will be a problem.

"And don't look at Samsung's large TV screen. If you look closely, you will find that the RB brand display is slightly better than Samsung's in terms of picture quality, whether it is natural color, rich layers, and picture analysis and stability. Sex is better for Japanese companies." Chen Yizhe analyzed.

When the two walked back to the booth of Xiameng Electronics, they found that there were already several circles of people on the booth.

This time, Xiameng Electronics exhibited a total of three products, one is an ink screen reader, the other is a color electronic paper mp4, and the fist exhibit of Xiameng Electronics this time - a 40-inch color electronic paper screen TV .

In addition to the ink screen reader, which can be mass-produced at present, the mass production of the other two products, mp4, requires a new supply chain. As long as the procurement time is timely, mass production can be carried out quickly, while color e-paper TVs need to wait for e-paper Mass production can only be carried out after the production line equipment is completed.

At present, Yide Company is manufacturing two production lines, one is the ink screen production line and the other is the electronic paper production line. Since the electronic paper production line has a very high technical content, the production is still relatively difficult. Fortunately, Chen Yizhe cheated on the side, it is estimated that it is very difficult. It can be made by the second-generation production line equipment of fast electronic paper.

There are too many customers for consultation. Seeing that the eight staff members of Xia Meng Electronics are basically too busy, Chen Yizhe can only help out.

"Hello, what is the agent price of your 40-inch TV?" This is the question asked by many people.

"Because the order delivery date of e-paper TV will be postponed to the end of April, its agent price will not be much more expensive than that of a liquid crystal display of the same size. The current initial agent price is $5,288." Chen Yizhe smiled.

Chen Yizhe said the price, and the person who asked was immediately surprised. This price is not to say that it is expensive. You must know that the current price of a 30-inch LCD display of a domestic brand is about 17,000 yuan, and the minimum price for a 40-inch LCD display more than 30,000 yuan. As for the price of foreign LCD TVs, it is even more expensive. At present, the market price of Samsung's 40-inch LCD TV is 9,000 US dollars.

"Is this mp4 just changed the screen?" A reporter from China asked the question. He pointed to the ink screen mp3 launched by Xiameng Electronics Co., which was hanging around his neck, and then pointed to the mp4 on the booth.

Chen Yizhe replied with a smile, "Although it looks like only the screen has been changed from the appearance ~www.readwn.com~, there is still a big difference. First of all, the 128mb flash memory has been replaced by a Hitachi 1-inch 1gb capacity. Micro-hard disk, secondly, the high-end Philips chip is used in the decoding chip. This time you can stop talking about the low-end products used by Xiameng Electronics. In addition, in terms of software technology, the company uses audio and video decoding technology and compression technology on the basis of mpeg4. It is technically integrated, which can increase the compression ratio of mpeg4 to one-fifth without losing the quality of video and audio. This audio-visual software technology, you can call it kdtd, has been fully adopted by Yiyidong Music website. A technology…”

For the domestic media, Chen Yizhe still gave the greatest support and gave a very detailed explanation.

"With so many improvements in software and hardware, it is estimated that the price is also much higher than that of the first-generation ink screen?" The domestic reporter continued to interview.

"Indeed, the current foreign agent price is 399 US dollars, but the domestic price will be kept secret for a while, and I hope to give the domestic a surprise." Chen Yizhe said.

After the reporter left, another Indian in his thirties stepped forward and asked, "What is the price of your e-reader agent?"

"The current agent price is $159!" Chen Yizhe said, whether it is a TV, mp4 or e-reader, the agent also needs a certain amount to start.

"Then does your company produce this type of seven-inch ink screen?" The Indian continued to inquire.

The screen size of the e-reader currently exhibited by Xia Meng Electronics is 6 inches.

"Yes." Chen Yizhe handed a promotional brochure to the Indian and said, "This is the size of the ink screen we currently produce, you can take a look..."
