Chapter 1038 Buy Technology

"Mr. Feng, you have summoned us all. Do you need us to unite for some technical breakthroughs?" Jiang Wan asked with a fierce smile.

Every time Feng Yu has an idea about electronics, he will bring them together to see which company is better at, and then focus on which company is the main one, and other companies will assist.

In this way, everyone cooperates with each other, not only can make technology research and development faster, but also train the technical research and development personnel below, and each participating company will not suffer.

It's just that this time is different. This time, the island country's AIWA company did not participate, and Aihua Xiaobawang did not participate, but Changhong's chief engineer came.

Originally, the chief engineer of Changhong was quite arrogant. After all, they are the leader of Huaxia TV. Although the business is not very good this year, they still have the first market share. The TVs of the Fengyu brand are all made by others.

As for the fact that the wind and rain brand is very popular, and it is a super electric fan, and a super VCD, in his opinion, it is just the other party's luck to occupy a patent, otherwise it would have been surpassed by others.

But after he visited the smart home model house and research institute of Fengyu Electronics, this arrogance disappeared. The model house of Fengyu Electronics is amazing. He has never seen such a high-tech house. He feels as if he has arrived in the future.

As for these products, has Fengyu Electronics actually mastered the technology? Although many are still in the laboratory stage, it is also amazing. Moreover, Fengyu Electronics has so many patents, and even many of them are the world's top patented technologies, which once again impressed him!

"Mr. Yang, I see that Changhong has some optical technology, which has been applied to electronic products. I wonder how many optical zoom cameras you can make now, and how many pixels can take pictures?"

"We can already make a 30W-pixel digital camera with twice the optical zoom!" Mr. Yang was a little proud at first, but after thinking about other people's achievements, his voice became much quieter.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, he saw Feng Yu frowning, looking very dissatisfied.

"Mr. Yang, I'm talking about the results of the laboratory."

"I'm talking about the lab too."

Feng Yu "..." In the laboratory, is there such a technology? It seems that he was too optimistic before, Changhong's technology is still not good.

It certainly won't work when applied to mobile phones. Maybe it can be assembled, but how big is the phone.

At this time, mobile phones are developing towards small size and thinness.

Fengyu mobile phone launched a big brick, that TM is not dead by the joke!

Seeing that Feng Yu was not satisfied, Chief Engineer Yang immediately said: "We also have a digital zoom technology that can achieve triple zoom!"

Digital zoom, huh, huh, that TM is a funny technology. It is only equivalent to a partial image enlargement, which is based on the premise of sacrificing pixels.

If in the future, the camera can reach several megapixels, this technology will be fine, but now, with a 30W pixel camera and a triple digital zoom, the picture will be blurred.

"How long have you been working on these technologies?"

"Five years."

Feng Yu almost choked to death. Five years, at this level? This is starting from scratch, and it cannot progress so slowly. It seems that the attention is not enough and the investment is too little.

"How about you, which company is confident that it will succeed in researching digital camera-related technologies?" Feng Yu looked at everyone.

Everyone was silent, and Mr. Yang's head was almost stuck in his crotch.

"What if I spare no expense?" Feng Yu continued to ask.

"Mr. Feng, that's unlikely. Foreign countries are far ahead of us in the technology of digital cameras and even digital video cameras. And there must be a lot of patented technology involved. Even if we spend money to research it, because of patent protection, It cannot be used for profit." Jiang Wanmeng reminded.

He bought a digital camera not long ago, and at that time he also had the idea of ​​letting Fengyu Electronics study this thing. But it was later discovered that this thing is too complicated, involving optics, mechanics, electronics, and also includes image information conversion, storage, transmission, etc.

Fengyu Electronics does have technology related to video information. When they make VCD or DVD, they have related research. In terms of mechanics, they can also try hard, but in terms of optics, they have no experience at all.

In a completely unfamiliar field, there are still many blockades of patented technologies ahead. How difficult it is to develop.

Feng Yu sucked his teeth and felt a headache. He really didn't think about the question Jiang Wanmeng said. Just like VCD and DVD, it is not how difficult the technology is, but because the core patent is in the hands of Fengyu Electronics, and other companies must produce this technology without bypassing this technology, so as to ensure that Fengyu Electronics' products sell well and lead in technology.

There are so many companies engaged in digital photography and video recording, including companies from South Korea and island countries nearby, and many companies from the United States and Europe as far away as possible. The relevant patented technologies must have been applied for by others long ago.

Even if money is spent on research, it cannot be used in products, otherwise it will be an infringement, and not only will the money be lost to other companies, but it will even have a serious impact on the brand.

"Mr. Feng, why don't we go to some companies that produce cameras and buy related technologies from them?" Mr. Yang suggested.

Spend money to buy? Feng Yu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of a company that produced the world's first digital camera, and as early as 1991, the company produced a 1.3 million-pixel digital camera, which can be described as A pioneer in the digital camera industry.

However, this company is the world leader in traditional film cameras, with higher profits, and does not pay enough attention to the digital camera market. When film cameras were withdrawn from the market and they focused on digital cameras again, they found that they could not keep up with other companies. In the previous life, this company finally filed for bankruptcy protection.

Feng Yu doesn't know how good the company's digital camera technology is at this time, but it must still be at the leading level in the world. It's just that this company's annual turnover is nearly 10 billion U.S. dollars, and it is still the leader in the camera industry. Buying technology and patents from them must be a sky-high price!

Or, talk to this company and buy related patent licenses from the other party? This will definitely be much cheaper, but it also has serious disadvantages, that is, future development depends on this company, and it is even easy to be restrained by the other party and affect your future development.

Feng Yu thought about it, and found someone to get in touch with first. If the patented technology is cheap, then buy it. The other party doesn't pay much attention to it.

"Okay, then I'll contact a foreign company to see if I can buy the other party's patented technology. The focus of my next work is to combine digital cameras with mobile phones to produce mobile phones with camera functions!"
