Chapter 45 Panasonic smiles awkwardly(1/2)

 One thousand Hong Kong dollars, according to the current exchange rate, is more than 860 yuan.

However, based on salary income, more than 860 yuan is equivalent to everyone’s total salary of more than two years.

And one thousand Hong Kong dollars is just half a month's salary for today's Hong Kong city.

If you spend half a month's salary to go to the night market, you can't even think about high-priced things.

As Zhao An said before, at best, you can only buy some small commodities that are equivalent to souvenirs.

It's just that when everyone buys things, they all prefer to buy clothes, shoes, and leather bags.

This kind of thing is a daily necessities, especially when used daily, people around you can see it.

It not only meets the needs of daily use, but also satisfies a small vanity. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Two hours later, the group returned to the hotel packed with bags.

At this moment, everyone is trying on the clothes they just bought.

Accompanied by Zhao Kang, Zhao An is signing the authorization agreement in the team leader's room, and is also discussing matters about sending Zhao Kang back to the capital tomorrow.

First of all, facing this authorization agreement, the team had no way to produce any official seal.

After all, they are just a research and development team, and it is impossible to have any official seal in the system.

At this moment, the team leader wrote a written report and compiled a story that has not happened yet.

The main content of this story is that everyone saw a Hong Kong technology company that develops chips at the electronics show that just started tomorrow.

After the company's boss learned that the group of people in front of him were actually staff members of the Beijing Computer Research Institute, he authorized a thousand of the company's chips for free.

I hope that when the Computer Research Institute uses these chips, it can provide detailed usage experience and relevant data.

However, the company has not yet mass-produced this type of chip, but out of unconditional trust, the other party actually provided the design drawings of the chip.

Faced with a Hong Kong businessman that was so supportive of domestic scientific research, the team decided after research to send Comrade Zhao Kang to return to the capital immediately with the design drawings and licensing agreement.

Moreover, relevant manufacturers must be arranged to carry out production immediately, and the relevant data of actual use must be produced in the shortest possible time.

The reason why we take it so seriously is not only because of the company’s unconditional trust and willingness to hand over the company’s confidential design drawings.

What's more, the company promised to donate 200,000 yuan to the Computer Research Institute after the electronics show.

In addition, the company is willing to provide long-term funding for computer research institutes in terms of research and development funds.

After research, the team concluded that this matter was too important to be delayed.

Especially since the other party is a company that has the ability to develop its own chips, the Computer Research Institute must respond proactively so as not to undermine the sincerity of patriotic businessmen in supporting domestic science and technology undertakings.

This written report, under Zhao An’s comments, is almost full of high-hatting and moral kidnapping.

Once this report, the licensing agreement, and the company's confidential chip design drawings are handed over to the Computer Research Institute.

As a leader, you don’t dare to be careless when faced with this kind of thing.

If this kind of thing is not handled well, if the company feels that it has been neglected, it may even be exposed by newspapers that always stir up trouble.

The consequences and impact are responsibilities that the leaders of the Computer Research Institute cannot bear.

Soon, after everything was ready, Zhao An called his second brother Zhao Kang overnight to book a flight.

Only when the second brother returns to the capital and immediately rushes to the manufacturer for supervision can we ensure that these chip design drawings can be seen as samples in a very short time.

In addition, once the second brother gets the sample, he will bring it to Hong Kong City together with the circuit board that Zhao An commissioned before.

Be sure to take out two arcade machine samples before the 7th and place them on your own booth.

I hope to use the last day to attract the attention of agents or channel dealers.

If possible, Zhao An is extremely eager to get an order.

After finishing everything, he walked out of the hotel accompanied by his second brother. After that, Zhao An did not return to the hotel, but rushed to the electronics show non-stop.

If nothing else, the display board customized by the advertising company has been delivered to the electronics exhibition venue.

When Zhao An arrived at the venue, he found that there were indeed many display boards stacked on his booth.

"Is it Mr. Zhao? When Manager Song left, he specifically told us that if you need any help, just let us know." A staff member walked up and briefly exchanged greetings with Zhao An.

At this moment, Little Overlord Games is not the only one that is still busy setting up its booth.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. Many manufacturers are still working overtime and making final preparations for tomorrow's launch as scheduled.

"Thank you, and say thank you to Manager Song for me! I just have a few small display boards, I just need to put them up in order.

In five minutes at most, I can arrange everything..." Although Zhao An had a smile on his face, he felt uncomfortable in his heart.

Such a good opportunity, but it’s a pity that I found out about it too late.

However, even if I knew it earlier, I would not have the conditions to participate in such an electronics show.

All I can say is, don’t feel too bad if you miss it, as long as the Computer Research Institute makes the chip.

Once you get the chip, you can fully assemble the game console.

By then, as long as the game console is on the market, it will be able to beat all current game consoles with its functions and game content that has no similar competitors on the market.

Making money is just a matter of time. As for whether it can become bigger and stronger, it depends on whether the subsequent promotion can be one step ahead.

We must dominate the existing market as much as possible before our competitors produce similar products.

The cake is only so big. As the first person to eat the cake, how much you can eat depends not only on your strength, but sometimes luck is also a very intriguing factor.

After simply setting up the booth, and seeing that he still had plenty of time, Zhao An wanted to walk around the entire exhibition and take a look at the products of major manufacturers in advance.

However, most well-known brand manufacturers cover their booths with black cloth, obviously not wanting to let the news leak out during the booth layout.

In desperation, I had to take a taxi back to the hotel.

Early the next morning, on January 1, 1982, the Hong Kong City Electronics Exhibition "Facing the Future Life" was officially launched!

During the first two days of the exhibition, tickets will not be sold to ordinary consumers.

The first two days are only open to manufacturers, distributors, agents, professionals, specially invited guests, and media friends.

The purpose is to create a relatively quiet atmosphere and promote more business cooperation.

The most important data indicator of a successful exhibition is how many businesses were facilitated during the exhibition and the total transaction volume of these businesses!

This key data marks the strength and status of the exhibition.

If the annual transaction volume of an exhibition is mediocre, I believe it will be reduced to the point where it can no longer be held in a few years.

Before preparing to take a taxi to the electronics show, Zhao An checked out of the hotel and decided to live in the office building he rented for 200,000 yuan for the rest of his time in Hong Kong City.

Anyway, the company has no other employees, so it is enough to buy a quick folding tent and a sleeping bag.

As long as you don't cook in the company and just treat the company as a simple hotel, at least Zhao An won't find anything inappropriate.

After checking out of the hotel and sending his luggage to the company, Zhao An also took the time to find a shop to have his hair done.

After Mr. Tony sprayed the hair spray for twenty or thirty seconds, Zhao An took a taxi to the exhibition site.

The whole morning, Zhao Jing waited quietly at his booth, holding a brochure in his hand, but no customers came to visit!

However, it was this morning that Zhao An discovered that his booth in the corner was actually not that unbearable.

Although it is the corner of the entire exhibition, it is also the only way to pass one of the three bathrooms in the entire exhibition.

Many people who want to go to the toilet must pass by Zhao An's booth.

If there are already game consoles that can provide trial play, I believe this location will definitely become a hit.

However, when there is only a booth, even if someone wants to go to the toilet.

When these people passed by the booth, they just glanced at it.

It is estimated that in this glance, I can’t even see clearly what words are on the display board.

Even if they can clearly see the pictures on the display board, without understanding what these pictures mean, the curiosity of those passing by to use the restroom cannot be aroused.

Seeing that no one came forward to ask questions all morning, Zhao An's mind was filled with thoughts on how to solve the problem.

If text and pictures can’t attract everyone’s attention, can you try using video ads to attract them?

Record the game trial into a videotape, and then place a TV on site. It is best to get two speakers with louder sounds.

In this way, it will at least be more attractive than text paired with pictures.

As long as there are people stopping to watch, even if the intention of approval cannot be achieved, it is still better than no one at all.

With an idea in mind, Zhao An simply went directly to the exhibition to buy a color TV and video recorder.

By the way, take advantage of this purchase opportunity to contact potential future collaborators.

The first brand that Zhao An focused on after he started taking action was Neon Panasonic, which also owns color TVs, video recorders, and chip businesses.

"Sorry sir, we only accept bulk orders in the first two days of the exhibition.

Two days later, after the exhibition is open to consumers, personal orders will be accepted.

Moreover, by then, our company will also launch a super discount event of 15% off.

With this ultra-low discount, you can save a lot of money..." Panasonic staff politely declined Zhao An's idea of ​​just buying one.
