The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

First arrived in Ningbo, then Yang Dongxu flew to Shenzhen again. Although he didn't want to ignore these people because of his anger, the business still had to be done, and Ye Rongrong called him, and the mass-produced mp3 finally went offline. So while these foreigners are interested in recording equipment, they can show off a wave.

After really seeing mp3s of the same size as lighters in later generations, Yang Dongxu couldn't find any beauty in the finished mp3s in front of him.

The boxy is bigger than the cigarette case, not to mention, plus a charger of about the same size is inconvenient to look at, and the mp3s in future generations can be easily imported into the pocket.

But this mp3 is undoubtedly the most advanced existence in the world, not only can you usually use the radio to listen to the radio, but the download volume of 20 songs is definitely not comparable to a cassette. Now that the technology of optical discs is constantly evolving, it takes about 12 songs to record a single disc.

Although it occupies most of the space with a song on the CD and a video screen, this product is really very good. The external battery, which is the charging treasure, can last for six hours, which is more powerful than the mobile phone. .

More importantly, the mobile battery can be used repeatedly, and it runs out of electricity after a day of listening. In the evening, go home and recharge the battery, and you can listen to it the next day. Unlike a fixed battery, you can only throw it away and buy it again after use.

In this way, the storage battery, which can be compared with mobile phone batteries, is definitely not cheap, and the overall cost of mp3 production prices has reached more than 300 US dollars. At the current exchange rate, it is nearly 2,500 yuan, which is only the production cost.

Of course, this is the production price of the highest configuration, and the production cost of low-end products also ranges from 100 US dollars to a maximum of 300 US dollars.

But according to Yang Dongxu’s idea of ​​pricing at least double the profit, the price of a full set of mp3s will start at about 700 US dollars. After all, you have to remove employee fees and transportation fees, as well as the profit to dealers, etc. .

It's nearly 5000 yuan for 700 dollars, and then you can buy a low-end version of Motorola. This year, Motorola produced the world's first clamshell phone, and even sold a high price of more than 40,000 and nearly 50,000 in China.

Although this flip phone is much smaller than the older brother, it is still cumbersome and ugly in Yang Dongxu's eyes. Even a 50,000 yuan is crazy, but this is not the one who can buy it. Compared with this thing, he would rather buy Ericsson, which seems to be a baroque style of later generations.

However, this year Nokia's sudden rise, the emergence of giants that have attracted worldwide attention for more than a decade. Undoubtedly a huge impact on the mobile phone market.

Therefore, Motorola also began to pay attention to the importance of low-cost mobile phones, so some time ago launched a mobile phone around 6000, that is, the nickel battery has a small amount of electricity. Yang Dongxu said that an mp3 is equivalent to the price of a mobile phone.

"Just for it, contact a foreign vcd distributor and we will set the top price at US$720. We will decide how much they sell according to different situations. The first batch mainly produces the top version, and the first version will wait for the second batch of production. "Despite all the dissatisfaction, Yang Dongxu also knows that this can only be done at present.

"How many sets were the first batch?" Ye Dongrong was relieved to hear Yang Dongxu give a positive answer, seriously when the mp3 was really converted from the laboratory into a product. After seeing the finished product, she really couldn't put it down.

But this kind of surprise, and the expectation of the big sale of the product. Yang Dongxu was a little disturbed by the disdainful appearance just now, but in the end the results could be mass produced as expected. As for Yang Dongxu's dissatisfaction, anyway, her boss has always been very demanding. She is not surprised.

"Get 10,000 units to try the water first."

"Will it be too much?" Although I also want to mass-produce, I think the product will definitely sell well. However, the production volume of 10,000 units of finished products at once made Ye Rongrong feel a little drummed.

Even these years can be regarded as taking the Dongxu Technology to the South and the North, and even expanding in overseas markets. Foreigners have called it one of the most successful businesswomen after China's reform and opening up, but the production cost of this gadget is indeed too high.

It is 10,000 units, which is the cost squeeze of 3 million US dollars, and if converted into RMB...

"That's all, we are focusing on overseas markets. The conversion of this thing into RMB prices sounds scary, but there are many foreigners who have money. The small one thousand dollars is not too stressful for them. Just endure the old Continue to use the phone for a while, just don't change it for the moment."

Relative to Ye Rongrong’s concerns, Yang Dongxu clearly knew exactly how a hot market a epoch-making product would expand. Putting mp3 on the overseas market is as absolute as the frypot that Apple put on the domestic market.

Of course, for the sake of insurance, some advertising is still required. Therefore, in the cost, the celebrity endorsement fees should be eliminated, and the profit should be reduced, which makes him a little unhappy.

"Oh, is it okay to upgrade the product?" Yang Dongxu asked.

Since the establishment of Dongxu Technology, what Yang Dongxu wants to build is a brand, so it is not a pit to sell things at a high price. For example, in order to stabilize vcd's customers, they provided free upgrades after sales, which has become a killer for brand establishment and combating piracy.

In fact, the so-called upgrade and replacement, there are not many things to change, even before the vcd many parts do not need to change, just open some blocked functions.

Since it is the quality of high-quality mp3 hardware, it is definitely no problem. The so-called update is actually when the mobile hard drive is updated, and the mp3 sold before is expanded. The other is basically no big problem.

If you wait until all hardware has to be updated, then it's time for a real product update. When the time comes to launch new products, these old users will not feel the pit, but feel that Dongxu Technology is very kind and product can be used for so long. The purchase of electronic products is equivalent to devaluation. Foreigners have long been used to being brutally accustomed to fearing him.

"No problem, the hardware is prepared according to your requirements." Ye Rongrong nodded.

Ye Rongrong is undoubtedly very supportive of Yang Dongxu's idea of ​​creating his own brand of electronic products. No one wants their products to be popular, and international brands are excited when they think about it.

"That's good." Yang Dongxu put the things on the table. "I heard that you have reported for the cram school?"

Compared to the first time Wu Aibing took Ye Rongrong back to Yanjing to see her parents, the girl who was slightly capable but young. Ye Rongrong is now an absolute strong woman.

The long hair disc reveals the neck of the show in the back of the head, and the slightly plump figure wrapped under the professional attire exudes the charm of mature women. Although she is 6 years younger than Wu Aibing, this year is only 35 years old. But in recent years, he has dealt with various international businessmen, and even with the scheduling of tens of millions of billions of dollars, she is only 35 years old and has the ambition to be successful with other men who are more successful than him.

"The bigger the company does, the more it feels that it needs to learn too much. If everything goes well after the mp3 is listed, Dongxu will not have too many things to do within half a year, and I need to recharge it." Ye Rongrong took a sip. The coffee in his hand said with a smile.

There is no emba business school now. Although the entrepreneurs of the 70s are rising, most of them are still struggling. Therefore, it will take several years for business schools and various diplomas to slowly become popular. So Ye Rongrong can only report some cram schools to achieve the purpose of charging.

"Which one is ready to charge?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.

A group of people under his hands, in addition to the researchers in the laboratory, part of them are constantly learning and doing research. Ye Rongrong, a senior executive of other companies, was the first executive to propose charging to learn, which made him curious.

"Enterprise management." Ye Rongrong replied affirmatively.

Yang Dongxu nodded silently: "If there is a goal, if you find it inconvenient to study at home, you can go abroad to study after you have been busy for a while. Let my sister arrange a teacher for you."

When someone who doesn’t understand mentions enterprise management, the first reaction is: Isn’t it just to manage people? Is there anything to learn? Just command them to work?

This is obviously just a little bit of cognition. Although the real enterprise management has the part of managing people, that is, human resource management, this is not the whole of enterprise management.

Even the human resources management that you think is just simple management includes, human resource strategy formulation, employee recruitment and selection, training and development, performance management, salary management, employee mobility management, employee relationship management and employee safety and health Management and so on.

Therefore, what the enterprise management needs to learn is naturally not as simple as managing people. It includes human resources, projects, funds, technology, markets, information, equipment and processes, operations and processes, etc.

As a manager, these things do not mean that you should be proficient, but at least you have to know. To understand what kind of person is responsible for what kind of thing, it’s not that if you press one person in one position, you’re done.

"I think so too. Compared with the management of domestic enterprises, foreign experience is indeed more advanced." Ye Rongrong said with a smile.

"In that line, when did I start charging and told me, I will give you leave. It happened that Huaxiu has stabilized after a while. I will help Dongxu Technology to manage it. I will take a few days out before I leave. Accompany Wu Wu, otherwise he should be nagging me once you go abroad. I turned his wife's mission." Yang Dongxu teased.

Although he is not used to foreigners' superior looks, he is not angry because of angry youth. He also admits that he lags behind others, and he has no opinion to learn something good to go abroad.

"Well, I will. I miss my son too." Mention the tenderness of maternal love on the face of her son Ye Rongrong.

In recent years, because the company has developed too fast, neither she nor Wu Aibing can spend more time with her son. What's more, Wu Aibing's mother slowly adjusted her body after the living conditions were improved. After she had her grandson, she could better take care of her, otherwise their children could only be given to their parents.

"Children are still good to accompany. Although Wu Ge's job is running everywhere, it is not necessary to come to Shenzhen to work as before. Or you can take the old man and settle down here in Shenzhen, just standing here The state-of-the-art education in reform and opening up is also good, and the climate in the south is also suitable for the elderly to come to provide for the elderly." Yang Dongxu touched his nose awkwardly and didn’t know.

"I and Ai Bing both think so. Although the two of us are always on business trips, we can still take care of the family for most of the time. But my mother was a little bit unwilling to say that she lived all her life in Yanjing. She doesn’t want to move somewhere. She said that if she broke down and died outside one day, she would never find her way home.” She mentioned that her mother-in-law Ye Rongrong also had a guilty look on her face.

Relative to the average woman's mother-in-law, she obviously has her own professional ambitions, but it is the parents of her family who have opinions in this regard. She feels that her daughter's heart is too wild to be afraid of her husband's opinions.

But her husband and mother-in-law are fully supportive of her, Wu Aibing loves her as long as she basically supports what she wants to do. The mother-in-law feels that her son is five to six years old, and that she can marry such a capable daughter-in-law is an ancestor who naturally loves her. I never complained about bringing my grandchildren bitter and tired.

"It doesn't have to be a permanent resident, you can take advantage of the children's vacation and take over to play something. Just give the old man and the child an adaptation to the southern life in advance, and don't settle down then."

Hearing Ye Rongrong's mother-in-law, Yang Dongxu couldn't help but think of his parents. Now that there is a lack of popularity in the senior courtyard, in fact, he wants his parents to live in Yanjing in advance to adapt to life in a big city and prepare for future retirement.

Even if Yanjing does not work in the future, it is not bad to go to Shanghai after getting used to, or simply go to Sanya to settle down and retire. But this matter is obviously very difficult to deal with, it seems that Old Man Xuan now prefers to stay in the countryside instead of returning to Yanjing. You think it's good, they don't necessarily like it.
