Chapter 139 Plan M

After teasing Tan Li, Wen Tian looked at a booth next to her and asked, "Aren't I going to draw three major plans in the report I drafted during the annual meeting last year? Now I have visited "Plan C" and "Plan M" and "Plan M" and there is one?" Guo Ying pinched her cute nose and said, "It's worthy of being from a foreign company. I still remember the speech drafted for the boss. He is such a capable little secretary!" She was used to talking to Wen Tian and the others, but Wen Tian saw Yang Xing looking at them with an ambiguous face. When he remembered the ambiguity of "capable", he couldn't help but blushed and wanted to pinch Guo Ying to fight back.

Others only have an ambiguous relationship with Yang Xing. Just based on what Yang Xing said just now, everyone thinks that this boss has a first-class vision and ability, and liking for beauty is probably just a trivial flaw. It is abnormal for a young man to be as rich as Yang Xing, who is afraid of not liking beauty.

Wu Haijun and others mysteriously took out a large box, and after opening it, they revealed a box that looked the size of a portable CD player, a small white device similar to the MD players popular in Japan and Korea, a card similar to the CF card in the digital camera just now, a small stick with a finger-sized one, and a device that looks like a stand-alone handheld computer, said: "This is the official result of the last 'M Plan', most of which are made up of using ready-made technology, but a few are our own originals. Everyone must sign a confidentiality agreement with us before going out later, and cannot be circulated."

Kan Dongtian picked up the guy who looked like a portable CD player and felt that it was heavy and square and didn't look like it could be carried with you. When he opened it, he laughed and said, "Is this a VCD with a screen?" Wu Haijun nodded and agreed: "Last year we cooperated with Hitachi to promote building advertising to Starlight Entertainment's advertising department to provide LCD TVs with its own VCD. Later, this technology was small and equipped with an LCD screen to become a mobile VCD, mainly for car owners and people who go out to travel. The key is that it comes with its own battery, which can probably finish a complete movie. It is still heavier now because the battery is heavy. We are now negotiating with a battery factory in Shenzhen and decided to replace nickel-hydrogen batteries with nickel-cadmium batteries. The weight and battery life should be reduced, and it will be launched in June this year."

After listening to it, Kan Dongtian carefully looked at the products in front of him and found that the VCDs of the same era were silly, big, black and thick, which matched the size of the old video recorder. In comparison, this silver-white VCD machine with an LCD screen is only not much larger than half a newspaper, which shows the ability of Nebula Electronics in system integration and miniaturization.

Yang Xing came up to explain to the "M Plan": "The so-called 'M' refers to Music music, Movie images, Mobile mobile, and Memory storage. In fact, strictly speaking, it can also be classified into the category of digital products. However, we advocate that this type of product is a product that is directly close to individual consumers, and the biggest requirement is lightness, flexibility and easy to carry, so it is out alone."

Zheng Kaiyuan picked up the stamp-sized memory card and held it in front of him. His question was more professional, "This is a replacement for CF card, what is the capacity and what is the transmission speed?" Chi Chongrui explained: "This is a new memory card called MMC card jointly launched by Siemens, Germany and SanDisk, the United States. This one is 32 megabits, with a 7-pin interface, and the access speed is about 150KB/s. There is no read-write protection switch. This is a Siemens authorized to us." Zheng Kaiyuan weighed it with his hand, as if nothing was needed, and couldn't help but exclaim: "The advancement of technology is really amazing. The floppy disk on our computer is only 4 megabits in size, and this little guy is equivalent to 8 floppy disks!"

Yang Xing picked up the stick and said to him: "So we developed this product that replaces floppy disks. This is a memory developed using NAND flash memory technology. It is impact-resistant and can read, write and record repeatedly 300,000 times. The interface technology adopted is a USB interface, which supports hot plugging, which we call it a USB disk internally." Zheng Kaiyuan's eyes lit up, and this is of many uses in military purposes.

Yang Xing knew he was interested and continued: "We can build confidentiality and antivirus programs in it, or directly change it to read-only mode. Its structure is relatively simple. Apart from the memory chip, there is only one reading device. As long as the seal is solved, it is a shock-proof, waterproof, and anti-magnetic three-defense product. We have applied for patents in many countries around the world, which is considered a completely independent technology in my country in the IT industry."

Of course, Zheng Kaiyuan would not be confused by Yang Xing's self-proclaimed self-proclaiming. After all, this technology is easy to imitate. Moreover, the most critical NAND flash memory chip technology is still in the hands of the Japanese. Moreover, it uses a USB interface. At this time, the famous WIN95 does not support this interface. You can't bring a CD to install the driver every time you store it.

Only Wang Yiren and the others couldn't put down the thing that looked like MD. The appearance of this little thing was similar to that of MD, and there were similar operation keys such as playback, forward, and backward. However, according to their usual experience of playing MD, they could not find a place to play the CD. Yang Xing took this small player and turned on the switch and pressed the playback switch casually. The songs from the latest album of "Girls Star Age" were immediately heard from the little machine. Looking at everyone's leisurely expressions, he smiled and said, "This should be considered an epoch-making work in the electronics industry!"

This is the first time when Yang Xing and Wu Haijun talked about IT technology, Yang Xing specifically instructed Wu Haijun to create the world's first MP3 player. After more than a year of research and solving the problem of audio decoding chips, the size and weight of the prototype were greatly reduced, and the current pure white look is only slightly larger than MD.

Strictly speaking, the MP3 music format is a music compression format. It was first proposed by the European high-tech project "Eureka". Before it, the WAV format used to watch music on the computer to record, download and play high-quality sound files, and the 10MB space required to record a CD-quality WAV song for one minute was put forward. In this regard, data compression requirements were put forward.

Its full English name is MPEG-1Layer3. The so-called "MPEG" refers to the "Movie Picture Experts Group" (MoviePicture Experts Group). It is a working group established by the National Standardization Group ISO in 1988 that is specifically responsible for formulating relevant standards for compression and coding of moving images. The MPEG-1 standard (ISO/IEC11172), MPEG-2 standard (ISO/IEC13813), MPEG-3 and MPEG-4 standards were all formulated through this group. In their previous lives, their abbreviations "MP3, MP4" even became synonyms for music players and video players.

After listening to Yang Xing and Wu Haijun's explanation, everyone suddenly realized that if this is the case, it is worthy of the mobile audio-visual milestone product proposed by Yang Xing, because it adopted a completely different technical route for the first MD machine made by Sony in 1992. It relies entirely on computers to obtain music, and MD can at most rely on purchasing MD discs and recordings to obtain music. The stubborn Sony's control over MD disc technology is well known. The price of MD discs purchased by several women is probably no less than their cost of buying luxury clothes. When downloading a song on the computer network, even if Yang Xing does not mention the price of the genuine version, it can be imagined that it will be much cheaper than MD.

Kan Dongtian was quite excited. If Nebula Electronics could really release this product in Jiudu, it would be famous in the field of portable audio-visual in the future, and it would also increase Jiudu's popularity. After all, the things that can be used in China in recent years are really good. However, Wang Yiren was still clear-headed and asked: "Is this also connected to a computer using a USB interface?" Yang Xing knew what she meant, and nodded and sighed: "Two interfaces have been developed, one is USB, which is very fast but requires the support of the computer motherboard, and the other is parallel, which is aimed at computers without a USB interface. Using the printer interface to transmit songs, the speed is very slow. The 32-megabit machine is probably required to have lunch."

At this time, the computer hard drive was only more than 500 MB, the external interface was pitifully small, and the transmission speed was astonishingly low. It was not an environment for the MP3 player to show its strengths.

Yang Xing continued: "So the day before yesterday, President Wu went to Guangdong. Among the companies we acquired, there were many electronic companies, and they received many orders for integrating the overseas electronic products from behind. This time, Guangdong broke the case of the investment in the country, which was good news for us. The Guangdong Provincial Government was eager to sell a batch of assets to make up for the loss. The giant computer in Zhuhai and a batch of electronic companies that manufacture Taiwan motherboards were on the sale list. We are preparing to get several companies with good scientific research strength and production potential, and to fulfill our promise, first make computer motherboards, popularize USB interfaces, and prepare for our future production of independent technology computers."

Yang Xing's ambition infected everyone at the scene. Although the Giant Crisis at the beginning of this year fell down Shi Yuzhu, who was second only to Bill in the minds of the young man, now the image of Yang Xing has been raised in their hearts. Yang Xing aimed at the Giant for a reason. After reading the materials of the Giant brought back by Navy Wu, he felt that he had underestimated the genius Shi Yuzhu.

In fact, Giant Group launched M-6405 Chinese Han card, Chinese laptop, Chinese handwriting computer and other computer products in 1993. Among them, the sales of Chinese handwriting computers and software alone reached 360 million yuan that year. Giant became the second largest private high-tech enterprise in China after Sitong. At this time, Lenovo was still busy combining Beijing Lenovo and Hong Kong Lenovo into a group. The basis for its future fortune - Lenovo Computer's domestic market share is not as good as Giant. Compared with HP, Compaq, and IBM, which occupy most of the market share in China, is even more out of reach. Who would have thought that Lenovo would sit on the top seat in domestic computer sales in the future and acquire the IBM brand it has represented?

If Shi Yuzhu hadn't been fainted and turned the company's main business to health products and real estate, and fell into the dilemma of lack of working capital, the Giant Group would not have collapsed so quickly. However, it still retained a complete computer production line, and there was no more complete talent and technology in China than it had. So although Yang Xing felt sorry for Shi Yuzhu, he thought of guys like Wang Lanni and Tang Hai who had giant resumes, he didn't mind being prepared to swallow the Giant Computer in one bite.
