Chapter 285 [Return to the Other Body by His Way-Sony]

February 1959, Dongying, Keihin Industrial Zone.

Lenovo Electric’s headquarters was finally completed and put into use after two and a half years;

Said to be the headquarters, but in fact it is a large-scale industrial park with a factory covering an area of ​​2,000 acres.

Lenovo Electric has been established for more than 5 years and has become a truly large-scale electrical appliance brand;

Lenovo Electric’s growth is accompanied by a series of mergers and acquisitions and integration of resources, coupled with the first to develop several great electrical products, and finally settled on the throne of the fifth largest electrical appliance company in Dongying.

In front of Lenovo are the four electrical companies of Panasonic, Toshiba, Mitsubishi, and Sharp. The two electrical companies that are squeezed by Lenovo are Sanyo and Hitachi.

As for the famous Sony company in later generations, it was already on the verge of bankruptcy.

Looking at the history, Sony has established a great cause for future generations with a TR-55 transistor radio;

But in this life, Lenovo’s TR-66 and TR-77 transistor radios appeared ahead of schedule, and Sony had no chance to sell radio products;

Although Sony’s black-and-white TVs are also well bought, their technical competitiveness has no advantage. Under the attack of a large number of electrical giants, they are also at stake.

Even Lenovo Electric took the lead in developing patents for transistor radios, sued Sony many times, and Sony’s reputation plummeted.

In contrast, Lenovo’s TR-77 radios sold more than 2 million units in the two years from 1957 to 1958; most of them were sold in the United States, earning a lot of dollars.

The reason why Lenovo is targeting Sony and not other large electrical companies is not to bully the soft and fear the hard, but Wu Guangyao has a fancy to Sony's future technology.

In later generations, Sony has two great technologies, one is Walkman, the other is Trinitron;

The former is the tape player technology produced in 1979, and the latter is the CRT technology developed in 1967 that dominates the TV industry.

Any development of these two technologies can make Lenovo Electric one of the world-class companies, and Wu Guangyao wants both!

Walkman brings people closer to music, and Sony relies on its Walkman (walkman) to sell 250 million units.

Sony has become synonymous with TV quality with the help of Trinitron CRT technology, and the total TV sales have reached hundreds of millions of units.

Such a dazzling result, as a traverser, I naturally want to cut my head!

Wu Guangyao can also understand the general principles of these two technologies. If they are given to Lenovo Research Institute, they may not be able to develop them in front of Sony;

However, to be safer, it is better to snipe Sony!

Wu Guangyao came to Lenovo headquarters, and the four heads of directors who had been waiting at the door greeted them happily. After greeting, a group of people came to Wu Guangyao’s office.

"How is the progress of the color TV? Can it be successfully developed in the first half of the year?" Wu Guangyao asked.

Time is a bit tight. In January next year, Sharp will successfully develop color TVs. It will be a pity if this is the first time to let people go. After all, Europe and the United States have already had color TVs for a long time, and it is not difficult to buy a complete technology with money; Of course, I still have a sense of accomplishment in my own research and development.

"No problem, it's in the final test stage, maybe in just one or two months, we can give the president the good news!" Onoki of the technical department said confidently.

"Hurry up, this technology is not difficult at first, maybe other electrical companies will almost complete the research and development! This is a reputation. Who is the first company to develop color TVs in Dongying, then it must be in sales. There is a great advantage." Wu Guangyao exhorted.

"President, rest assured, we will definitely develop it ahead of others!" When Oh Nogi heard that it was almost developed outside, he quickly issued a military order.

Wu Guangyao suddenly picked up the paper and pen on the table, pondered hard, and then began to paint on his own.

The four directors dare not show up, what is this president doing?

Never disturb the chairman, maybe there are top-notch electrical concepts like transistor mobile phones, rice cookers, and pulsator washing machines.

The four really guessed it. Wu Guangyao is describing the shape of the picture tube and the general principle of the Trinitron picture tube based on the impression of later generations.

What Wu Guangyao knows is not even a fur, but it will undoubtedly be a general direction.

For a long time, Wu Guangyao raised his head and said to Onoki, the head of the technical department, "Come here!"

When Oh Yemu came to Wu Guangyao's desk, Wu Guangyao handed the paper to Oh Yemu and said, "This is my sudden inspiration. It is about the video tube technology. I call this technology Trinitron technology. Of course. At present, this cannot be called a technology. You can find an elite team for me to research and develop Trinitron image tube technology.

Onoki looked at the content on the paper excitedly, as if he couldn't understand it, even a bit contrary to common sense.

"President, you only have one launch point (single shot)?"

"Yes, I call it a single-gun three-beam tube. The horizontal aspect is convex, and the vertical aspect is straight cylindrical picture tube. The traditional picture tube does not aggregate the phosphor dots into a triangle, then this picture tube classifies the phosphors according to color Arrange in the form of uninterrupted lines."

Wu Guangyao said a few words about the technique he understood, and Oh Yemu quickly picked up a pen and wrote it down in his notebook.

"Boss, do you have any more?" Onoki said hesitantly.

"What do you say? I'm not an engineer, so I can understand how much. You can find a good team to develop this technology this time. If it succeeds, then our TVs will be sold all over the world, and even the American TV industry will have to bow down. ."

"President, rest assured, as long as you put forward this great idea, our engineers will help you realize it!"

The original historical Sony was on the verge of bankruptcy in the 1960s. It was relying on Trinitron technology to turn over in one fell swoop; in this life, because of the emergence of Lenovo, it was on the verge of bankruptcy ahead of schedule. This is something Wu Guangyao did not expect.

"How is Sony's situation?" Wu Guangyao said.

The four directors looked at each other, wondering what the boss meant when he asked them?

Even if you care, you have to care about a few big electric appliance giants. A little Sony is totally not worth mentioning.

"They went on the market in December last year, but it didn't make their situation better. TV sets and radios are not selling well, and other products are even more difficult to talk about. If they can't produce any more products, it is only a matter of time before they go bankrupt. "Ryohei Kimura, the business department, said.

"Go and test Akio Morita and Ibuuda to see if there is a possibility of acquisition."

Wu Guangyao's words shocked the four of them, because Lenovo's territory is complete, and there is no need to acquire another defeated player in a repeating industry.

Wu Guangyao’s move is naturally to give Lenovo an insurance!
