Chapter 33, The first meeting of the members

"Are you going back on National Day?"

Tomorrow is the National Day holiday. Among the group of people who came out of the school, Zou Yanxia, ​​who was walking at the end, asked Lin Yi softly next to her.

"Sister Xuan has something to do and ask me to go to the provincial capital." Lin Yi shook his head. He had planned to go to Shenzhen City, but a sudden call changed his mind.

"Then, then be careful on your way."

"I know, remember to bring the things back, otherwise I won't dare to enter your house in the future." Lin Yi remembered that it was a bit too much for a kidnapped his daughter for so long during the summer vacation, so he prepared some gifts.

"Degree." In a low voice, Zou Yanxia quickly walked over Lin Yi and chatted with Mijia in front of her hand in hand.

Looking at Yanxia in front of her, Lin Yi turned his head and asked Wu Rong, "Where are you?"

"I, I don't want to go back, please help you read the bookstore." Wu Rong scratched his head.

Lin Yi smiled, seeing through it and not saying it out loud.

Wu Rong said he was hiding from Mijia, but when he learned that Zou Yanxia would come back one day, he made an appointment with a few girls to gather in the bookstore, he probably changed his mind.

...

This time, there was a woman of twenty-seven or eight when she went to the provincial capital with Lin Yi.

Some time ago, Guan Ping and his wife invited Lin Yi to visit their house.

After getting there, Lin Yi realized that it was not as simple as thanking him.

It turned out that I wanted to introduce Wu Fangfang's sister to me.

This woman is not simple. She studied at Zhejiang University in the late 1980s and was assigned to the Personnel Bureau where she was in her hometown after graduation.

But the woman was unwilling to stay in a small place for the rest of her life. She actually handled the house with her suspension and prepared to go into the sea, and had a breakup with her husband over this matter.

If Wu Fangfang hadn't been dependent on each other since childhood, she had tried her best to dissuade her, she would have probably arrived in Shenzhen.

As a last resort, in order to have a buffer zone. With the recommendation of my sister Wu Fangfang, it is not too late to come to Lin Yi to exercise first, and then to gain some experience before going out for a break.

But Lin Yi knew that Wu Fangfang hoped that her sister would change her mind.

The reason why Wu Jingxiu accepted this buffering suggestion was that she actually wanted to give her sister a buffering time and find an opportunity to go south.

So now Wu Jingxiu is just his temporary worker, but Lin Yi still decided to take her out. After all, he was the first college student under his command.



They carried VCD all the way, and when the two arrived at Lin Xuan's house, it happened to be lunch time.

Knowing that Lin Yi was coming, there were three people waiting for him in the living room.

Two men and one woman.

A young man with sword eyebrows and national face is called Guan Yilu. After graduating from college, he was assigned to work as an electronic pipe belt in a state-owned enterprise in Beijing, and later he worked as a packaging technology in a joint venture in the south.

In the first half of the year, in order to send my critically ill mother for the last time, I have been idle at home for half a year.

At the same time, his eyes were slightly different when he saw Lin Xuan. This time when Lin Xuan found him to explain his purpose, he thought about it and agreed.

Another young man wearing glasses was named Lu Yuan. From the former post office, Lin Xuan had already explained on the car that this person was an absolute skilled maniac, but he didn't know much about socializing. After being plotted against by someone to get promoted, he left angrily.

When Lin Yi saw Lu Yuan, he immediately recognized him. In later generations, this person was one of the leaders in the field of domestic chips. Unexpectedly, he saw him here, and he was really surprised and happy.

The only woman, Jiang Xin, felt about the same age as Lin Xuan. She had just retired from the army and had a short hair and neat hair. She also worked in telecommunications and electronics before.

A month ago, when Lin Xuan was considering the candidate, he asked Lin Yi how much he planned to invest in the early stage.

Lin Yi understood at that time that if the funds were low, it would probably be that the person introduced would not be the case.

So, Lin Yi said in one breath that he planned to use up 500,000 in half a year.

Lin Yi made a coincidence here, and Lin Xuan must have known that he didn't have that much cash. But the purpose was to show her determination that the flow of water from the two shops was for blood transfusions.

What's more, he brought a passbook this time, including all the net worth 210,000 yuan for selling gold.

The moment he entered the hall, Lin Yi knew that the time for both sides had come.

After a brief greeting with each other, Lin Yi said something:

“…The prospect of VCD is not optimistic about the government departments. They evaluate that VCD technology is an excessive technology and will be eliminated soon in the future. Currently, LD technology is enough.

However, I want to emphasize that the government is not optimistic, which does not mean that the VCD is not likely to succeed.

On the contrary, it is precisely because government departments are not optimistic that they will not grasp it firmly and we have a high level of freedom to exert space. This brand new, pure VCD industry should be controlled by the market economy, and this process must be carried out, triggered, and grasped...



Why do I want to do VCD? Why do I want to form a team with you?

Because I understand the market, how to realize your value, and how to carry forward our team..."

These words surprised the few people at that time, but then they felt relieved. The person who dared to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for work would not be a fool at least.

Besides, even if you are stupid, it doesn’t matter to them if you lose money. At worst, you can leave.

Of course, Lin Yi’s words were not targeted. When VCD technology was first innovated, the country attached great importance to it, but some bricks sent to test it and denied it.

This is also the reason why VCD was revived in the 1990s, because it liberated its nature and was a product of the market economy.



Before this, Lin Xuan had already told them about the general matter. If it were not forbidden or unwilling to be lonely, these people would not have come.

Since I came, in principle I agreed to Lin Xuan. Of course, I am not stupid, so I will definitely decide to stay or not depending on the situation.

In fact, Lin Xuan didn't tell Lin Yi. She started lobbying eighteen people and visited almost all those who could persuade them several times, but only these three people were willing to try it.

Of course, although it is a try, don’t doubt the moral spirit of these people these days. At least they will work diligently before leaving. Lin Xuan must have this vision.

"In addition, you may have heard of VCD, which is the thing around me, but you may not understand it enough. I will popularize it for you here.



The origin of VCD comes from C-Cube's digital video compression technology, which was valued by Wan Yan at the American exhibition.

Later, Wanyan Company invested US$3.5 million in C-Cube to develop the first fixed decoding chip CL450.

Immediately afterwards, Wan Yan carried out a series of research and development work based on the decoding chip Cl450. The intermediate VCD movement was developed, which consists of a optical head that reads the optical disc signal and an optical disc drive system (servo system).

This bald head and optical disk drive system is Wan Yan's technical core.

The success of the optical head and optical disk drive system can add screen display, karaoke and some functions of the video recorder on the digital video prototype.

Therefore, the central processing unit composed of digital compression technology, optical head and optical disk drive system, we call it CPU, is also the core component of VCD.

In order to better further research and development, debug and control the central processor, Wan Yan has also developed a complete set of control and detection technologies.

However, this set of technical achievements, except for the ownership of digital compression technology, belonging to C_Cube. Wan Yan did not apply for patents for other technologies, which gave other companies the opportunity.

As far as I know, a few months ago, many companies such as Samsung, Sony, and Liverpool had already purchased the VCD we had at the first time when Wanyan was produced. Their ideas were the same as me, and they understood this technology thoroughly, entered the VCD industry and controlled the upstream and downstream of this industry.

What's worse is that international giants such as Sony and Liverpool have long-term manufacturing and technical accumulation, and they are not short of talents. They are developing and mastering this technology, and they may be able to buy their movement components in the Hong Kong market in the future. However, one thing is very clear, and the price will be very, very high.

And what is even more regrettable is that I guess that if nothing unexpected happens, their new VCD products will impact the domestic market next year. Even if we buy their movements for assembly, we will not be able to obtain their latest generation of technology and their quality will be suppressed.

So, this is also the reason why I met you with a large amount of deposit today. Time really waits for no one.

When everyone heard Lin Yi’s last whisper, they smiled at him in a tense atmosphere.

After drinking a sip of water and seeing everyone relax, Lin Yi continued: "Although giants such as Sony and Liverpool will open the supply of movements in the market in the future, we can buy them directly, and then use them to produce them with cases.

But in that case, the cost is too high, and the upstream and downstream of this industrial chain are controlled by them, so large profits will eventually enter their pockets."

"This is not the worst, and the most terrifying thing is that if our products compete with them, they can strangle us at the source."

Without its own core technology, this is also the tragedy of many domestic big brands later, and in the fierce price war, it disappeared into the long river of history due to low profits or losses.

However, movement suppliers such as Sony and Liverpool are making a big profit in supplying these domestic manufacturers.

According to the days when he worked at BBk in his previous life, Lin Yi knew that 1997 years ago, the cost of domestic manufacturers using these core components to assemble DVD players was about 2,000 yuan per unit. From this, we can imagine how much overseas giants such as Sony earned on core components.

Next, Lin Yi and the others talked endlessly in the process of disassembling the VCD.

These people are indeed technical tycoons. When they took apart the VCD, they actually started analyzing, discussing and researching in the hall.

After eight hours of discussion, several people came to a conclusion based on Lin Yi's request.

First, it is not difficult to assemble a VCD in a short time. As long as there are core components such as decoding chips and movements, the first prototype can be assembled within half a day.

When you are proficient in the technology, you can immediately carry out rapid quantitative production.

"How long does it take to master the bald head, servo system and control system technology yourself?"

This is the technology that Lin Yi needs to master, otherwise no matter how brilliant it is in the early stage of the VCD field, it is easy to collapse overnight.

Just like brands such as Aido in later generations, when they occupied the market in the early stage, they were like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, easily squeezing into the top ten. But later they couldn't hear the name.

"It will take a year and a half if I give it."

Just when Lin Yi raised this tricky question, Lu Yuan, who had been relatively silent, made a statement.

To be honest, Lin Yi was surprised to hear this time. It seemed that this person had a lot of confidence in his technology, but it was not what Lin Yi wanted, it was too long.

Because next year is the year when VCD starts to make efforts, and it is also the year when this product is the most profitable, wild, chaotic, and easiest to shape a brand. By seizing the opportunity, you can quickly help Lin Yi complete the original accumulation.

Although many big-branded products in later generations did not lack examples of coming from behind, they had already missed prime time at that time.

As for chips, Lin Yi dared not give much hope in a short period of time. Although this kind of chip is not complicated in the entire field of electronic and electrical chips, it is not something that can be successful by just wanting to research.

Three years have developed VCD independent chips, which is Lin Yi’s psychological expectations for himself and his team.

After dinner, the few people got together and analyzed the direction they should go next.
