When the World Media Summit was held, Feng Yu was watching from Wind and Rain's headquarters through the security cameras. Feng Yu was not watching in front of the big screen. He was using the latest Wind and Rain S5 to watch the live broadcast.
Not to mention 20 years ago, even five years ago, when someone said that they could watch a live broadcast on their mobile phone, everyone would think that it was a fantasy.
But now, Wind and Rain was using their mobile phones to watch the live broadcast, and there was no lag.
It was not that the current technology was not up to par, but it was not able to be mass produced. It was just like how many countries were able to produce satellites and even launch satellites with the resources of their entire country.
But why were there only a few countries that could produce and launch satellites? Most of the orders were from a few countries.
The biggest reason was the cost. If the technology was not up to par, the production could not be mass produced. The equipment in the laboratory could not make money.
For example, the watch Feng Yu was wearing now was worth more than a million USD. It was not embedded with diamonds or gold. It was only made with advanced technology.
For example, gyroscopes and other advanced technologies. It could not only measure altitude, atmospheric pressure, tides, north direction, etc., but it could also measure heart rate, steps, etc.
These functions might not be worth bragging about in a few years. But now, many people could not imagine these functions. Some people had used similar electronic devices in the past, but those devices were too big, and not a single device had so many functions.
These few years, Feng Yu was addicted to black technology. He asked his engineers to develop these technologies regardless of the cost, and he will pay for it personally. Of course, the research cost also belongs to him.
For example, the gyroscope. This technology had been used on the self-balancing car for a few years, so it wasn't a new technology. But when it was used on a palm-sized PDA, it was especially outstanding. Not to mention when it was used on a watch.
Now that the research was successful, Feng Yu asked Xu Lihua and the rest to use these technologies on smartphones, tablets, and G-Box gaming consoles.
This way, people will be able to play more fun games with these technologies, and people who like to play games will like their products more.
Lenovo Group had bought the fingerprint unlock function from IBM. Initially, it was only used on laptops to increase the security of laptops.
But now, Feng Yu wants this technology to be applied to tablets and even smartphones. Since this technology can be used on door locks, then why can't this technology be used on tablets that are bigger than door locks?
Feng Yu had told Yang Yuanqing and the others that more and more people were beginning to pay attention to the safety of electronic products. Of course, it was possible to set a simple password, but deciphering the password was much easier than unlocking it with a fingerprint.
Even if he used it himself, his fingerprint would be much faster than a password. Another important point was that a tablet or smartphone with fingerprint unlocking would look more sophisticated.
Electronic products have begun to popularize the homes of ordinary people. From computers to smartphones, and even Super MP3 players, most of these were not necessities.
Many electronic products have actually become light luxury products.
Yang Yuanqing, Duan Yongping, Xu Lihua, Jiang Wanmeng, and the others could understand this. It was also because of this product positioning that their products had higher profits and were a grade higher than other products of the same industry.
But no one supported Feng Yu's "Black Technology" products. But Feng Yu doesn't mind. He had paid for his people to research on these products. Even if it was only a few years earlier, it was worth it to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu does not like gold, jewellery, or other luxury items. But he likes electronic products more than Jobs, and he is more willing to spend money on them.
For example, there are aerial cameras now, and aerial cameras had become common in TV stations. They are much cheaper than using helicopters, and the effects are not bad. But Feng Yu is playing with an aerial camera, and it can track him automatically.
Also, there is a voice recognition function. Feng Yu can use his voice to control many commands, and he doesn't have to use his fingers to press the buttons.
Many people felt that although this is more convenient, it is not very convenient. There is no need to spend so much money on research.
Also, how useful is the automatic tracking function of the aerial camera? You can just send someone to control the aerial camera and follow you.
This automatic tracking aerial camera costs more than 10 million USD, and an ordinary aerial camera costs 100,000 RMB. Hiring an aerial camera that will follow you for a lifetime should not cost 10 million RMB, right?
However, what they didn't expect was that this obviously extravagant product was actually being ordered by so many rich people. They didn't expect that there would be a day when their research and development costs would be recovered.
For example, Feng Yu developed a GPS tracking device for his family's golden retriever, Tycoon. This device ensures that he can find Tycoon easily no matter where he is. It was rumored that Feng Yu developed this device because Tycoon almost got lost in his neighborhood.
Only Feng Yu will invest tens of millions of USD for a dog.
In the end, this patent was used by Feng Yu on a mobile phone. Xu Lihua had always wanted to make a mobile phone that looks like a watch. Now, he made it and used this patent to sell to rich parents.
After children wore this kind of phone watch, not only was it more convenient to contact their parents, but parents could also locate their children through their mobile phones at any time. This kind of function made many rich parents rush to buy it.
Feng Yu told these people that there is no such thing as a useless invention. It depends on whether you use it in the right place. As long as you find the right application direction, even if you spend 100 million to develop this technology, you can still make 200 million RMB in profit.
Just like the smart home control system that Feng Yu developed. In the beginning, spending a few hundred million RMB to research is a waste. How much is it to hire a housekeeper?
But now, this system has many new functions, and many sets of it are sold. Although the cost is not fully recovered, Feng Yu's investment is negligible.
Now, Feng Yu is fascinated by a product that others think is a black technology. It is to integrate the projection function into the smart bracelet that they plan to introduce to the market.
What does this mean? It means to integrate a projector into the smart bracelet, and the smart bracelet will project a screen onto the user's arm or wall. Then, the user can use the projection and the position sensor to control the projection, and the user can operate many functions.
For example, surfing the internet, watching movies, sending and receiving emails, browsing pictures, and even chatting through instant messaging software. For this technology to be developed successfully, the engineers had estimated that it will cost at least 700 million euros.
Feng Yu waved his hand. Just spend as much as you want and let me study it. Don't mention 700 million euros, even if it is 7 billion euros, I will give it to you.
Traditional technology is no longer attractive to Feng Yu. If he wants to play, he will play with black technology!
