v2 Chapter 593： Fortune Interview II

Jenny found that Bao Zixuan was very cooperative, and at the same time had a very clear way of answering questions. This is a coveted interviewee, and reporters who meet such an interviewee can save a lot of trouble.

This time, Fortune Magazine has done a lot of preparatory work. It is very clear about the investigation of Bao Zixuan and the Heiyun Group, but some problems still need to be confirmed by myself. At the same time, the unknown side of Bao's richest man is presented to the public, and the effect seems to be very good at present.

Jenny: "Can you talk to us about the Walkman! I heard that it was also your idea."

Bao Zixuan: "The Walkman is because it is very inconvenient to see that people are playing music with a tape recorder, so I wondered if the tape recorder could be made smaller. That's why the concept of the Walkman came about, and the name came from the fact that it could be carried around. "

At present, although Heiyun is no longer comparable to Sony in terms of Walkman sales, even Panasonic has more sales than Heiyun. However, the profit of the Walkman is still Heiyun; after all, all the patents on the Walkman are in the hands of Heiyun.

Jenny: "Now that the sales of the Black Cloud Walkman have been surpassed by Sony, what do you think of this?"

Bao Zixuan: "This depends on several aspects, the first is the level of attention. The Walkman business is not the most important project in the Heiyun Group, resulting in a lack of resource investment. At the same time, objectively speaking, Sony is indeed in the field of audio and video products. With technical advantages, Sony’s internal Walkman is increasing the proportion of investment every year, and sales will naturally increase. We can’t belittle others because they are competitors, and they are good; Heiyun Group has to find reasons from itself.”

"Secondly, I always think that the Walkman is an excessive product, especially after the popularization of computers; with the continuous upgrading of memory chips, smaller music playback devices will be put into use in the future."

Jenny was very excited to hear it. It seemed that she could gain a lot today. Bao Zixuan said that the smaller playback device must have a direction, or else he would not say it easily in his capacity.

Jenny: "So the Heiyun Group has already conducted relevant research, and I don't know when smaller music playback devices will be able to meet consumers."

Bao Zixuan thought that since he said it, there is no need to hide it, and he can warm up the market. The most important thing is to make consumers think more when buying a Walkman. After all, there are better products waiting. follow them.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "Originally this is the company's secret. Fortunately, Heiyun has registered the relevant patents, so I don't have to worry about it."

"I'm talking about a smaller playback device that's one-tenth the size of the current Walkman, or even smaller. Because the device doesn't use tape for playback, it should play in digital and analog formats."

"Black Cloud has developed software that can play music on the computer, and then as long as the audio is implanted on the memory card, the music can be played. In the future, a memory card, a small electronic screen, a lithium battery, A single motherboard can realize music playback.”

"Engineers will assemble these four parts together, and then use software to cooperate, and a new music player will be manufactured. At the same time, songs can be changed infinitely. The ones you don't like to listen to are deleted directly, and then new ones are implanted. The songs come in. At present, Heiyun is negotiating the music copyright, and as a responsible company, it cannot harm the interests of the original creators.”

What Bao Zixuan said was so simple, but Jenny, as a reporter for Fortune Magazine, is also a well-informed person, and of course she understands that there must be a lot of high-tech technology in it. It's just that she didn't study science and engineering, and it was difficult to understand for a while.

Jenny: "It sounds very sci-fi, and at the same time it makes people look forward to it, but I don't know when I will be able to meet you.

Bao Zixuan: "The laboratory has already carried out relevant research and development, and it can be realized within the next two years. However, the cost will be very high by then, and it will take about five years to reach mass production."

In fact, these are all rhetoric of Bao Zixuan, just thinking about being able to sell at a high price when it was just listed, or how to explain it to consumers if it is too expensive.

Jenny: "It's really an exciting product. When I think about it, it will definitely subvert the entire field of music playback. No wonder the Black Cloud Group is investing less and less in the field of Walkman. It turns out that there is a new research topic."

"There are still many questions about Heiyun Computer. As a Turing Award winner, what do you think of the future direction of computer development?"

"Black Cloud Computer Company only produces large-scale industrial computers and notebook computers, so why did not enter the small desktop market, which should not be technically difficult for Black Cloud."

Bao Zixuan: "If a person or a company cannot make all the money, it means that there is no way for others to survive. Heiyun Group should make products with the highest technical content, and if there is no technical difficulty, it can be handed over to other companies. .In addition, it is related to the agreement to take a stake in Apple. At that time, Heiyun signed a clause that it could not enter the field of personal desktop computers."

"As for computers, there must be great development in the future. Now computers are only used as a simple computing tool. This is a huge waste of resources. Computers should be concentrated and formed into a network to play their role."

"At present, a local area network has been formed in Yulin Institute of Technology, and any computer in the school can access the central computer cluster. Anyone can apply to the central computer and work with the computing power of large industrial computers."

"In the future, this network will expand and extend to the entire Heiyun Group. At the same time, several universities have introduced this system, and the current test results are very good. Imagine that we can connect the central computers of several universities together, and then What kind of chemical reaction can be produced, it is estimated that only after the actual test will know."

It was only after hearing Bao Zixuan's words that Jenny remembered that this is the major shareholder of Apple. And it is also the largest shareholder. Apple is a listed company; shareholder information must be publicized. As a Fortune Magazine reporter, of course, I know the shareholding structure of Apple, a company with a bright future.

When China popularizes computers in the future, Bao Zixuan will invest in several companies, so even Apple will not have much to say.

But after hearing about the network and the central computer cluster, Jenny really regretted not studying science and engineering. It was too difficult to get him, a top journalism student, to understand this. Especially since the media has not reported any relevant content yet, these are the feelings that Bao Zixuan first raised, at least she thinks so.

Fortunately, the content of the conversation is recorded, so when you go back, you can find someone to help you analyze it and decide how to write the report.

Jenny: "Speaking of Yulin Institute of Technology, I heard that the university is named after your mother. And since the beginning of the semester, no tuition or other fees have been charged. The most important thing is that the school provides free food and clothing for the students. . This has attracted a lot of criticism, thinking that you have money to burn; some people say that you are breaking the rules of the game."

Bao Zixuan: "The purpose of running the school is to teach and educate people, and also to make up for the shortage of talents in Hengkong Polytechnic. In fact, it is not that there is no fee; I have not reached the realm of helping competitors cultivate talents."

"The tuition fees for foreign students at Yulin Institute of Technology are all supported by the students' home companies. For example, Japan's Panasonic and Sony have donated money to the school, so that the children of their two companies can enter the school to study."

"So Japanese students are mainly thankful for their two companies. The school only plays a teaching role and does not pay much money."

"Middle East students are donated by Saudi and Jordanian royal families, who provide funds to support students in completing their studies."

"The remaining Heiyun children are supported by Heiyun Group. After graduation, these students are required to work in Heiyun for three years or they will have to compensate for tuition and living expenses."

"However, the compensation is only symbolic. The main funding for the school is funded by my mother; all the pocket money I give and the money she earns will be invested in it."

"Companies may close down one day, and as long as they don't keep up with the development situation, they are likely to be eliminated or acquired. But universities do not have this problem. As long as the earth is still running, schools will not disappear."

When Jane heard that Bao Zixuan's mother could run a university with pocket money, it seemed that the rich world really didn't understand. But I also understand that Bao Zixuan is not giving unconditionally, so it will be more real.

The hardware of Yulin Institute of Technology can rank among the top 3 in the world, and the cost of food and clothing for students has caused a sensation in the world. It turns out that there are so many financial masters behind it, either the royal family or the big Japanese companies. Does it make sense?
