Chapter 1135 Three Kingdoms Contest for Hegemony

At first, Feng Yu thought that the fruit company alone was not a cause for concern, but soon, another powerful opponent appeared, or it was a combination of the two.

The four-star group cooperates with Microsoft to develop a portable music player that supports the wma format. The power of this player does not lie in the player itself, but in the wma music format.

Because of the music in wma format, the storage space occupied by the same song is only half of that in mp3 format, and the sound quality is not bad.

This allows a portable music player with the same storage capacity to store twice as many songs.

In this way, the yp player of the Four Star Group has the advantages of two portable players, mp3 and ipod, which not only save power but also store more songs.

Moreover, the yp of the Four Star Group has a large LCD screen, similar to an iPod, and all the buttons are on the right side, which can also be operated with a thumb of the right hand, which is very convenient.

And Microsoft is very supportive of wma, which is an audio player based on wmp video player, which can also be played by wmp. And Microsoft itself bundled the wmp player with the Microsoft system just like the ie browser, making this player very popular.

Now the wma audio format is also promoted in this way, plus its advantage of being half smaller than the mp3 format, many people think that it will be a matter of time before wma replaces mp3.

This yp portable player has attracted widespread attention as soon as it was launched. It is rare for the president of Microsoft to come to the platform in person.

Aiwa company was naturally also invited. When Liu Shenghao saw another strong competitor in the mp3 industry, his face became even more ugly.

In terms of website technology, aiwa can be said to be the worst. Fruit's song download website is better than them, and the layout is more popular.

And now the official song download website that supports wma format is a cooperation between Microsoft and Four Star Group.

When Hajime Yagyu looked worried, Masao Kameda told him that there is no need to worry, the website will take the lead again soon, because their website needs to load a brand new search engine.

After Masao Kameda asked Feng Yu for instructions, he contacted Guge Company and asked him to customize a search engine for aiwa's music website. Search for the song you want.

In this way, no matter what song you want to download, even if you don’t know the name of the song or even the name of the singer, you can accurately search for the song you want with one line of lyrics.

This function can greatly increase the page views and downloads of the website, and use it to suppress the audio download websites in the other two formats.

Fortunately, the audio with the widest audience is still in mp3 format, the format of Fruit Company and Microsoft, and there are still few users after all. But with the strength and influence of these two companies, coupled with the promotion of some of their partners, the threat to mp3 is very great.

Liu Shengzhao was very anxious, but after Feng Yu knew it, he was very calm.

In the previous life, the audio format was the Three Kingdoms struggle for hegemony, and this life is no exception. But in the end, wma, which claims to replace mp3, has not succeeded in replacing it?

However, the music format of the fruit company continues to be used in all fruit products.

Even if it is the Three Kingdoms vying for hegemony now, the AIWA company is also the most powerful Wei, the fruit company is Wu, and the Four Star Group and Microsoft are Shu.

Only by uniting Shu and Wu can they counter Wei, but is it possible for them to unite now? Not to mention the fruit company, it has always been very proud, Qiao Busi's pride is no less than Bill Gates,

Even above Bill Gates, the slogan has always been to change the world.

Microsoft would not compromise like the fruit company. In fact, in the first two years, if Microsoft had not injected 100 million US dollars into the fruit company and cooperated with some businesses, the fruit company had been in trouble at that time.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for them to cooperate. If they go it alone, aiwa has a group of followers. The mp3 format is still the mainstream.

After more music playback formats appear, it will be time for mp4 to appear. At that time, everyone will invest in the research field of video players. The research on this audio playback format will naturally slow down.

At that time, various players will be compatible with each other, and there will be no so-called format disputes.

So don't look at this portable player field has joined a big giant, but Feng Yu is still full of confidence, mp3 will still be the most popular portable player, and continue to lead the trend.

But at this time, yp of the Four Star Group actually developed a horizontal screen, which can be regarded as an innovation in appearance, and Feng Yu couldn't help but sigh, even if he has the foresight, it is still impossible to make all the designs his own.

Unless mp3 is like Nokia's mobile phone, a new product will be released every three weeks on average, and it will be adjusted according to the market at any time. But that also has a disadvantage, that is, it is impossible to carry out centralized advertising promotion for a certain product, and what Nokia fully promotes is the brand.

And aiwa's brand in the field of portable players is already one of the best in the world, or it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first. When promoting products, it is also promoting the brand.

Now that new competitors have been added, let's make some innovations in other areas.

...

"Boss, you said that our mp3 can support external expansion?" Liu Shenghao looked surprised. External expansion, that is, plug-in card?

"That's right, like a mobile phone, a card slot is reserved for inserting a TF card, so that the capacity can be increased, and the service life of a model can also be increased."

"Boss, the TF card only has a capacity of 128m now, and the 256 is still in the experimental stage. As for our mp3 capacity, the storage technology of 1g is fully mature, and the storage technology of 2g is also in the test. This card does not seem to increase the capacity much Right?" ℃≡miào℃≡bi℃≡ge℃≡

Hajime Yagyu didn't take it seriously, the increase of 2g is 256m, how much is this increase, what's the use? If the original 256m and a 2g TF card are added, it will definitely be welcomed.

If he didn't know the development speed of tf card, maybe Feng Yu would have the same idea as Liu Shengzhao, but the fact is that the development speed of tf card will eventually catch up with the storage capacity of other flash memory devices such as USB flash drives. In the future, many 2g mp4 , plugging in a 4G or 8G TF expansion card is the mainstream.

It's useless. Feng Yu said more, Kameda Masao taught: "Which direction the boss says it is like to develop, it is like which direction to develop. You just need to implement it, and you don't need so many opinions!"

Hajime Yagyu looked at Masao Kameda angrily. At the beginning, Aiwa's company was much bigger than Masao Kameda's. But he didn't expect that this kid jumped on top of him and came to teach him a lesson. What a shame! Too much deception!

But he also had to admit that Kameda Masao did have real skills, and he was young. If he were Feng Yu, he would also choose to support Masao Kameda.

Feng Yu just explained on the phone that he didn't go to Tokyo, but made some preparations and flew directly to Moscow to attend Brother Ji's wedding.
