Chen Yu, what are you talking about? Japan is not interested in online games. "
Duan Yongping said.
"That might not be the case."
Chen Yu shook his head, "Although there are no particularly good online games in Japan, the Japanese people generally like video games. Video games and online games are the same. As long as it is done well, they might like it. "
It would have been fine if he did not mention Japan. Once he mentioned Japan, Chen Yu thought that Huanyu Technologies could not just stay in China.
He should take a trip abroad.
Otherwise, even if Huanyu Technologies developed well in China and even surpassed Tencent and Ali in his previous life.
But in the global market, they might hit a wall everywhere.
The internet was not very clear at this time. It was a good opportunity to enter the global market.
With this opportunity, Chen Yu decided to start with online games.
But Jiang Sheng shook his head, "I have lived in Japan for many years. The Japanese people are only interested in handheld games. They are not interested in online games that require players to level up."
"Our Huanyu Technologies also has games that do not require players to level up."
"Even if it does not require players to level up, as long as it is an online game, the Japanese people are not interested."
Jiang Sheng shook his head again.
This kind of thinking was deeply ingrained and difficult to change.
If not, with so many video game giants in Japan, how could they not be able to create an online game?
In fact, Japan's gaming standards were very high. For example, the early Stone Age and Magical Baby were representative works of Japan.
However, these two games were not popular in Japan, but they suddenly became famous in China.
"Then let's continue to talk about the MP3 agent."
Seeing that Jiang Sheng did not even think about it, Chen Yu did not continue to talk about it.
But the more Jiang Sheng said this, the more Chen Yu was interested in the Japanese market.
There was no country that did not like something by nature.
As long as it was done well, as long as it made them happy, they would like it.
Just like how many times we do not know what products we like, when a new product appears, you will realize that you really like it. Of course, Chen Yu did not enter the Japanese market to create online games in Japan. He just wanted to use this opportunity to promote his instant messaging, search, and other businesses in Japan.
"Chen Yu, do you agree that Pear mp3 should go low-end?"
Seeing that Chen Yu was not thinking about other things, Duan Yongping said with relief.
"I don't agree."
Chen Yu shook his head. "There really isn't much profit in the low-end. Even if it's to open up the market, we don't have to go low-end."
"If they don't go low-end, Pear MP3 might not be able to compete with Sony."
Although Jiang Sheng had high hopes for Pear mp3, he had been in Japan for so long and did not think that Pear mp3 could compete with Sony. He only wanted to occupy the low-end market first and then slowly develop it. This was a very long competition.
"Actually, we might be able to compete with Sony."
If it was just a low-end market, Chen Yu would rather not do it. Since he was going to do it, he had to do it high-end.
Since they were going to do it, they would have to compete with Sony and Panasonic.
"From the looks and workmanship, our Pear MP3 might not be worse than Sony. The only thing we are worse than them is the sound quality. "
Chen Yu analyzed.
"The most important thing about MP3 is the sound quality."
Jiang Sheng replied.
"Yes and no."
Chen Yu nodded and then shook his head.
"Although MP3 is made for music, it does not mean that MP3 can only listen to music. For example, our Pear MP3 has a recording function, and many users like this function. "
"But this is only an auxiliary function."
"Then what if we add an auxiliary function?"
Chen Yu did not think much of it and continued. "For example, we can add a radio station function."
"Radio station?"
Jiang Sheng was stunned.
He did not expect MP3 to have a radio station.
Subconsciously, he asked, "Can you add radio functions to mp3 players?"
After asking, Jiang Sheng slapped his head and thought to himself. Why not?
"Chen Yu, what is your brain made of?"
Duan Yongping praised Chen Yu's idea. "You can listen to radio and music on the radio station. Also, the advertisements and music on the radio station will not be repeated. If you are tired of music, you can listen to the radio station. "
From this point of view.
In the future, if their Pear MP3 has a radio station function, this radio station function might not be an auxiliary function.
Even if it is an auxiliary function, it will be an important and indispensable function.
"Very creative."
Jiang Sheng started to feel that Chen Yu was not reliable.
After all, he was too young.
Also, he was thinking about online games the moment he arrived. This made Jiang Sheng not have a good impression of Chen Yu.
However, sometimes, the perception of a genius would quickly shatter his previous impression of him.
When Chen Yu mentioned the addition of a radio station function, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but clap his hands in praise of this function.
"Unlike China, the Japanese and Korean people have a deeper understanding of the radio station. Not only do adults like to listen to it, but young people also like to listen to it. There is also a large group of students on the radio station. If Pear MP3 adds a radio station function, it will immediately show its advantage and attract people's attention. "
The attraction of electronic product innovation is terrifying.
Although the sound quality of the MP3 is very important.
But, to be honest, ordinary people do not feel much about the sound quality.
Moreover, the sound quality of Pear MP3 is not bad. It can only be said to be average. Users who are not professionals can't hear it at all.
However, if Pear MP3 suddenly has a function that other MP3 players do not have, this will be a great advantage of Pear MP3.
This kind of innovation can be found. Even if Pear MP3 is not well-known in Japan, it can make its reputation in the first place. It can even cause countless companies to compete against it.
"Old Duan, you can't sign the agency to others."
Afraid that Duan Yongping would change his mind, Jiang Sheng said, "I think we should sign the agreement immediately."
"Jiang Sheng, you don't want to think about it."
"I am afraid that if I think about it again, you will give the agency to others."
Jiang Sheng is interested in Pear MP3 is not only because Pear MP3 is doing well in Japan, but also because Pear MP3 has a very creative feature. Recording. This feature is not available in the previous MP3 players, but Pear MP3 was introduced. Although this recording feature is only a supplementary feature, it is enough to prove Pear MP3's innovative features.
Duan Yongping likes innovative companies like this.
Duan Yongping is right.
After the introduction of the recording feature, an even more innovative feature was introduced.
Moreover, Jiang Sheng was certain that this function was definitely at the level of an assassin.
Once this MP3 player is launched, it will not be a problem to compete with Sony.
"We can sign it. But it will take some time to add this feature into Pear MP3."
"No problem."
"Of course, I hope Teacher Jiang Sheng can keep this idea a secret."
Chen Yu reminded Jiang Sheng.
"As a partner, I feel I have the obligation to do so."
Jiang Sheng nodded.
"Any other questions?"
Jiang Sheng looked at Chen Yu and Duan Yongping and asked.
"Don't look at me. Ask our Chairman."
Duan Yongping pointed to Chen Yu: "He is the one in charge. I am just his assistant."
"Then I will leave the Japanese side to Teacher Jiang Sheng."
Although Chen Yu does not know Jiang Sheng well, he knows Duan Yongping well. He will not joke about this.
Chen Yu thought for a while and nodded.
The 3 of them had no objections, and both parties discussed the agency matters.
Jiang Sheng paid an agent fee, and the two parties signed a contract.
"Chen Yu, you are really something."
The next day, Jiang Sheng left Kancheng with the excuse that he still has business in Japan.
Duan Yongping called Jin Zhijiang over to prepare to introduce the next generation of Pear MP3 players.
The radio station function will be the next generation of MP3 players.
"Teacher Duan, is Jiang Shengjun reliable?"
"Although Jiang Shengjun is an overseas Chinese, he has been doing business with Bubugao for years. He has a good reputation."
"That's good."
"Why?"
"I am worried that he will steal our radio station idea."
"Not likely."
"That's good."
Chen Yu took out a complete plan: "Teacher Duan, then let's talk about the second generation of Pear."
"Huh?"
Seeing Chen Yu take out a more complete plan, Duan Yongping blinked.
Then, he understood. "Chen Yu, I'm thinking that if Jiang Shengjun stole our idea, he would definitely be tricked to death by you."
"Sigh, one must be wary of others."
Chen Yu did not know Jiang Sheng.
The reason why he was able to reveal such an important idea was because he had a backup plan.
If Jiang Sheng dares to steal this idea, then don't blame Chen Yu for being ruthless.
"Chen Yu, tell me your complete plan."
Just the radio station function was already very attractive. Duan Yongping wanted to know how amazing the complete design would be.
"Teacher Duan, just the radio station idea will not work. Although this function is innovative, it does not have any technology. Once we launch this product, the rest of the manufacturers will follow suit, not to mention Sony and the rest. "
"That's what you say. But if we are the first to introduce it, it will be good for our brand. It will also be good for Pear MP3 players to enter the Japanese market."
"This will only allow our Pear MP3 players to enter Japan. But this is only the first step. There are too many electronics companies in Japan. Even if we enter the Japanese market, we will not be able to compete with them. When the time comes, we will leave the same way we entered. "
"Now that you mention it, you are right."
Duan Yongping frowned: "Japan's electronics industry is the world's biggest market. It is bigger than the US. We cannot compete with them."
"That's why we need to change our strategy."
"How?"
"We need to use soft technologies to defeat their hard technologies."
The so-called hard technologies were the hardware functions.
Japan's electronics companies were the most powerful in this area. They could not compete with them.
Soft technology, on the other hand, was strategy and operations.
"You are talking about music payment websites?"
Duan Yongping was the first to ask.
The biggest reason for Lizi MP3's success was not the appearance, the recording, or the sound quality.
Although the launch of YY music electronic payment market was opposed by many people at first, 10 cents per song and the opening of payment tools in Internet cafes made the whole market explode all of a sudden.
"We do not have the time to introduce electronic music payment websites in Japan."
Chen Yu shook his head and said: "After we introduced the VIP model, Japan had already introduced this model."
"What do you mean?"
"Comics VIP model."
Chen Yu emphasized as he pointed at the word "comic" in the complete plan.
"Comics."
Duan Yongping stared at the word "comics" under Chen Yu's finger.
Duan Yongping certainly knew that the level of comics in Japan was very high, and the Japanese people were fanatical about comics.
It could be said that the Japanese people's love for comics was greater than their love for songs.
"It makes sense in theory, but it's troublesome to operate."
Duan Yongping's mind was spinning wildly. He walked a few steps and said: "Paying for electronic music can work, in theory, paying for comics can also work. However, to read comics on our MP3 screen, our screen has to be at least 2 inches. The screen is too big. It is equivalent to several MP3 specifications. "
"Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that we make MP3 players. If we do comics reading, will our product still be MP3 players?"
This was what Duan Yongping was worried about.
It was not difficult to understand.
Although MP3 players used to pay for music, MP3 players were originally related to music.
But now that MP3 players were doing comics, when did comics have anything to do with MP3 players?
Although this function could be done well, the problem was that when MP3 players and comics were mixed together, it would be difficult for him to identify them. Was this called an MP3 player or a comic reader? Once the positioning was wrong, no matter how innovative your electronic product was, it would not be welcomed by the market.
However, Chen Yu, who had experienced this problem, did not think much of it.
First of all, regarding the problem of Duan Yongping's screen size, Chen Yu said: "A 2 inch screen is not that big. Although it is bigger and heavier than MP3 players, it is still small and delicate. It has good portable performance. Of course, the production cost in this area may be much higher than normal MP3 players. "
"As for the positioning problem, I don't think it is a problem. Everyone can call this thing an MP3 player, or they can call this thing a comic reader. Of course, if the user doesn't know what to call it, we can just call it Pear II. "
"Pear II?"
"Yes, Pear II does not have the MP3 slogan behind it. You can think of it as an MP3 player, but it is not an MP3 player. You can also call it an electronic comic reader, but it is not an electronic comic reader. In short, we can just call it Pear II. If our product is successful, then the moment we say Pear II, the user will know what this product is … "
"Wait a minute, I need to think about it."
Chen Yu's concept was a little advanced. Even Duan Yongping sounded a little confused.
It could not be helped.
It was due to the limitations of the era.
Why did Chen Yu want to make an MP3 player? He was not that interested in MP3 players.
Chen Yu wanted to make a smartphone.
However, smartphones could not be taken in one step. He had to take it step by step.
Pear II was a very important transitional product.
