Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 289: Video standards battle

There are many face-saving projects. Take this baseball game, the two sides have a tacit understanding and friendship. The spirit of the game is enough to let everyone enjoy the exciting process, without deliberately pursuing the results. "Top" point "Small" and say,

The audience gathered with celebrities, Tang Huan was specially arranged to sit next to Mr. Jiang, and the other party was very interested. He talked a few words from time to time, which was quite whispering and became the focus of the media from time to time.

Tang Huan understood that he was inevitably taken advantage of by public opinion, but he didn't care very much. In the first half of the year, I could watch baseball games like this with you, and in the second half of the year, I could also go to the mainland to watch the NBA in this way. Yes, it is naturally qualified to go its own way.

Moreover, compared to the disturbances that may be caused, the respect of those in power on the island is more valuable.

"Mr. Tang, how much time do you think it will take for the development of Treasure Island's high-tech industry to reach the current level of Japan?" Mr. Jiang's consultation showed his recognition of Tang Huan as an expert.

"Even if Treasure Island reaches Japan's current level, Japan has already developed to a higher stage at that time, and the industry benefit distribution pattern of the entire world market will still not change. This goal is meaningless." Tang Huan smiled faintly and answered. Straightforward.

“What Baodao’s high-tech industry currently needs is not large and comprehensive, nor is it the so-called technological digestion premise, but to quickly grasp the key points, point to the surface, and reach world-class standards in a certain field. For example, semiconductor manufacturing is a good cornerstone. "Speaking of this, Tang Huan looked into the distance, "I'm in Singapore. It's the same opinion."

Mr. Jiang nodded. "This field. We are already doing it."

"But progress is still slow, and the market for personal computers has risen. It will gradually spread to middle-class families in the developed regions of North America and Western Europe, just like TV sets." Tang Huan looked at Mr. Jiang and made a powerful move. "So, even if the price is a little bit at a loss for the current technology introduction, we still have to win over the time advantage."

"Excessive dependence on an industry is very risky." Mr. Jiang laughed.

"But this industry is a sunrise industry with unlimited prospects. As long as it has a first-mover advantage, Baodao's economic performance can be eye-catching for at least a few decades." Seeing Mr. Jiang's reservations, Tang Huan intends to stop this. Topic, so as not to waste saliva.

"Several decades? Mr. Tang has seen a long way." Mr. Jiang changed the conversation and sighed with emotion.

Tang Huan thought for a while, and slowly said, "I do have a feeling. History is a round and round circle, tossing and tossing. Everyone has to be pragmatic in the end to survive. Now the situation is different, as long as Baodao can To develop into the world's largest production base for high-tech products is not an insignificant passerby, and it does not need to be so unreasonable."

Having said that, Tang Huan laughed and waved his hand, "What a crude opinion, just talk about it casually."

"It's not unreasonable for you." Mr. Jiang thoughtfully, "Personally, if you master a unique craft, it's relatively easy to be worry-free."

Tang Huan didn't continue to take this stubbornly. People's minds are separated by their belly, and they don't know what to do. Some topics can only be stopped in moderation.

"By the way, I heard that you have absorbed a lot of talents from the treasure island in the DreamWorks of the entertainment company in Xiangjiang." Mr. Jiang, who is still talking, joked, "Hu Yinmeng is the one you brought from the treasure island. In the past, her father still has a job."

Upon hearing this, Tang Huanhan felt a little bit, and it seemed that no matter how he was in a high position, people also need gossip to adjust the taste of life.

"It is undeniable that the talents of Baodao have considerable advantages in terms of global integration." Tang Huan nodded slightly. "Not only DreamWorks, my Hollywood company has also established a joint venture company in Xiangjiang, and is also absorbing people including Baodao. Among the Chinese talents, they are committed to producing competitive entertainment content to sell to the United States."

"Treasure Island has always attached great importance to education investment." Mr. Jiang said triumphantly, "I have forgotten that among the many identities of Mr. Tang, there is also a Hollywood boss."

Mr. Jiang turned his eyes to Mr. Song, “With the convenience of Mr. Tang in Hollywood, the guest candidates for the Golden Horse Awards will definitely become more colorful in the future.”

"Indeed." Mr. Song nodded repeatedly.

Seeing the two singing and playing the double reeds in harmony, Tang Huan muttered in his heart, this is obviously a cold-blooded apportionment.

However, there must be a future. You must know that according to the historical trajectory, the proportion of consumption of Baodao in the Chinese entertainment industry will be very important in the next ten years.

"Within the scope of ability, it is naturally a trivial matter." Tang Huan smiled generously, and then scoured Mr. Jiang for benefits.

Among all kinds of intrigue, the time of a ball game naturally seems very short.

The minor league team brought by Tang Huan won by a narrow margin, and the scene was very beautiful. This result is a joy to everyone.

When Miss Jiang Er's son, Yu Zhuo, walked to say hello with baseball equipment in between, Mr. Jiang was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing, his face full of joy.

Tang Huan glanced at Mr. Song, and said to his heart that this arrangement came from the other party's advice, and he really did his best. He didn't know what kind of catalytic effect the family card would have.

...

After finishing the official article, Tang Huan's next work content quickly changed from fiction to reality, such as inspecting the related industry partners of Fangyuan Computer and Xiaobawang game console.

Acer has obtained the authorization of a generation of Fangyuan Computer, and finally has a stable product that can be taken out.

For the purpose of unifying the software platform, Tang Huan is ready to transfer the first-generation Fangyuan computer market to local companies on Baodao to shop sales. After user demand is further stimulated, he will have to transfer to the second-generation Fangyuan computer platform. Meet business needs.

In other words, although the first generation of Fangyuan computers still has a long life cycle, its status has increasingly tended to be used for entry and training. And use this to get a preliminary understanding of Zheru's software family.

Acer gets this benefit. Naturally very happy. But I don't know that its subordinate status has become more and more difficult to change since then.

Lianhua Electronics finally developed a compatible cpu product for intel8086, and obtained an order for the second-generation Fangyuan computer.

However, Tang Huan handed a report to the general manager Cao Xingcheng and said bluntly: "It is also a compatible product of the second supplier, but in terms of execution efficiency and energy consumption, amd can achieve 20% optimization. , But you can’t even reach half the level of others. Dude. There is still a long way to go."

Compared with previous inspections, Tang Huan's attitude this time was much more serious.

Under Tang Huan’s guidance, Baodao’s high-tech industry’s achievements in the initial stage are still very obvious, and it has also received various official praises and sought after from the media. I believe some people will definitely be complacent, or simply exaggerate this. This kind of progress, so as to get an ascending channel.

Tang Huan didn't bother to pay attention to these phenomena, but because of the tremendous pressure from the US market, he would naturally pass on to the downstream and beat these people in front of him. Don't patronize and follow the soup, you have to do the work beautifully. Otherwise, let alone entering the US market, even Japan will come to squeeze the living space.

As for Lianhua Electronics, who was still immersed in the joy of success, after being poured cold water by Tang Huan, he could only accept it obediently, after all, the gap was shining there.

However, Lianhua Electronics cannot say that it has no grievances. You have to know that AMD has been in the field of producing compatible products for many years and has quite a deep foundation.

In every chip including cpu, there are a large number of circuit gates, which can be expressed by Boolean mathematical logic in theory.

As a compatible manufacturer standing on the shoulders of the predecessors to make improvements, the optimization content includes streamlining the circuit gate.

Lianhua Electronics is like a student in the first year of junior high. Combining similar terms in algebra can only do simple questions like a*cb*c=(ab)*c; amd is like an excellent student in the upper grades, even the difficulty of Mathematical Olympiad. .

Under the premise of such a clear gap between the two parties, it would be good to be able to get the correct answer to the question. Therefore, UMC, which has not received much praise from Tang Huan, is still quite wrong.

In the production of peripheral equipment such as display components, mainframe power supply, etc., the Guo brothers' Hon Hai performed very eye-catchingly. Tang Huan nodded secretly, and it really has the potential of a major foundry.

In short, during this inspection, Tang Huan basically beat all the industrial partners gathered next to him, so that they can share the huge competitive pressure from the external market, thereby further enhancing the centripetal force.

However, when it was time to give a lecture at the university, Tang Huan immediately put on a smiley face that made people feel like spring breeze, and exchanged experience and insights with the students.

In terms of university education, Baodao has indeed cultivated a group of science and engineering talents with solid foundations.

In the original time and space, these Chinese people have become a small technological backbone in Silicon Valley. Although they are not as famous as Yahoo Yang Zhiyuan, they have also achieved remarkable results.

Tang Huan was talking and laughing, and he was also looking for someone with a little reputation in his impression.

The welcoming of students on campus to Tang Huan, in addition to the admiration of his success, does not exclude interest factors.

Because the boss of Tang University has actually launched a plan to subsidize further studies in the United States, and not only those with excellent academic performance are hopeful of getting this place, but also those with special skills in sports, art, etc., are also included in the scope of inspection.

...

At night, Weng Jingjing, who has been an invisible follower, asked with a grin, "Can a big person also be a good actor? For example, these days, I find that your image changes very frequently, and the clothes are seamless."

"Are you taunting me?" Tang Huan smiled and patted Weng Jingjing's little buttocks. Compared to the cuteness of Guan Zhilin's little straw bag, the little witch in front of him was also very pleasing.

"How could it be. I just think you are so good, you can be proficient in whatever you do." Weng Jingjing couldn't wait to send a sweet kiss.

"I'll let people take you to play, why don't you go?" Tang Huan asked comfortably, sniffing the faint fragrance of the body, touching the soft waist in his hand.

"It's boring, it's fun to stay by your side." Weng Jingjing replied without thinking.

Facing the girl’s clear adoring gaze, Tang Huan’s conquest began to overflow, turning over to press it down, and laughed in a low voice: "My little brother. I want to hear your cry again."

...

Trip to Treasure Island. It can be said that everyone is happy. Sweep away the haze caused by Deng Lijun's Laojun performance.

Seeing that the matter was almost dealt with, Tang Huan hurried to Japan. In addition to the usual inspections, he mainly wanted to search for good things.

After the money-losing goods of MGM were taken over by Tang Huan, due to long-standing abuses, it would be difficult to rectify and produce results for a while.

After seeing MGM's horror with his own eyes, Tang Huan even began to doubt. Isn't Kirk Kirkrian like the original time and space, waiting for the other party can't stand it, and then buying MGM back to tossing about the abacus?

Although with the financial support of the Kuwaiti royal family, MGM can be adjusted slowly, but this does not show Tang Huan's unique ability. Maybe it will make those partners who plan to test their abilities through this matter, but this is the case. Thoughts.

There is no doubt that the sooner results are made, the better for Tang Huan.

Ever since, Tang Huan moved his mind to MGM's huge movie library.

In the original time and space. Ted Turner bought MGM for this. It intends to use its film library to enrich Turner Broadcasting's broadcast content.

In areas like North America with a mature business environment, the awareness of copyright protection has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Of course, in the specific operation process, it also depends on whether the stakeholders can afford the protection costs in terms of money, time, etc.

But in an industry that has been regarded as a veteran TV station, everyone still abides by the rules.

MGM can conduct authorization contacts and negotiations in this field, but everyone is a shrewd businessman and may not be willing to invest too much money in this kind of unscrupulous business.

Ted Turner also spent a lot of money because of his own TV network.

Tang Huan is interested in learning Ted Turner, but he only has two TV stations in Hong Kong and Auckland, and he is temporarily unable to invest further in this field.

In view of this, Tang Huan turned his attention to a wider range of mass consumer markets, where the real money is coming out.

In 1983, in the original time and space, the video recorder has become a common consumer product in American households, and the various economic benefits brought by it are considerable.

Its deep-rooted position in the US market cannot be shaken even by the popular ones in the 1990s. It was not until the DVD era that it began to loosen up, and then it entered the era of high-definition video.

From VCR, DVD to Blu-ray, no matter what kind of product, there are logically three elements, namely player, content carrier, and storage format. Taken together, it is the so-called video standard.

Players—no matter the actual home appliances or software in computers, content carriers—whether they are video tapes, CDs, or hard disk files, users can have a clear look and feel.

In contrast, the format agreement that determines how the content is stored clearly belongs to the role of passers-by.

In the battle for video standards, various manufacturers have always been knives and swords. The winners and the losers are not enough to describe this tragic. It is completely the winner takes all, and the loser has nothing to do with it.

After DVDs dominated the world calmly, the high-definition era is blu-ray and hddvd two camps shopping.

The Blu-ray side is the Blu-ray Disc Alliance formed by Sony and Matsushita Electric; the hddvd side is the HDDV Promotion Association formed by Toshiba, Sanyo Electric and other companies.

There are many similarities between the two in terms of technology. The obvious difference is that the Blu-ray Disc has a single-sided single-layer capacity of 25gb, and a single-sided double-layer capacity of 50gb; while hddvd has a single-sided single-layer capacity of 15gb and a single-sided double-layer capacity. It is 30gb.

Therefore, who can win the two standards depends mainly on which supporter is strong.

Sony of the Blu-ray camp is directly assisted by its own game console, Columbia of Hollywood.

The hddvd camp is supported by Microsoft home game consoles, and Hollywood’s Universal has also joined.

Of course, there is no shortage of double-betting ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ such as hp, Paramount and so on.

This standard battle, which burns money all the time, started in 2002, and it was not until 2008 that Toshiba announced its decision to terminate the development of hddvd players and recorders, stop the production/game of hddvd optical disc drives, and end it. The hddvd business ended.

Regardless of the two standard camps with Japanese companies as the protagonists, they fight to the death and the splendor, but the irony is that the real decision of their fate is not entirely by themselves, but American companies, such as Hollywood, and even The seemingly irrelevant retail giant Wal-Mart.

At the same time, it is said that the pornographic film industry, which favors Blu-ray's large-capacity storage capacity, also played a decisive role, but this factor, like it drives the development of broadband Internet demand, cannot be discussed on the surface.

Sony, which has completely won the battle for high-definition video standards, was struggling with the battle for video recorder standards in the 1980s, which was more than two decades ago. It was a painful experience.

And when Tang Huan came to Japan this time, he naturally knew which standard to choose to make a steady profit. (To be continued...)
