"This condition is estimated to be difficult for Kodak." Boss Zhu felt a little surprised after hearing Fan Wuyi's condition, and said smoothly.

It is true that Kodak has encountered a relatively large crisis now, but this does not mean that they have been completely defeated. As an old brand of graphic influence processing business package solver, Kodak has encountered relatively large difficulties in the film manufacturing industry. In other respects, the exhibition went very smoothly. Now I want to acquire the entire Chinese film manufacturing industry, but I hope to maintain the film business for a few more years. It does not mean that Kodak can no longer maintain it after leaving the Chinese market.

Although many people are blindly optimistic about the importance of the Chinese market, Boss Zhu still knows it very well, so when he heard about Fan Wuyi's condition, he did not feel that it was a very relaxing condition.

Fan Wubing replied, “Within three years, our Fan Investment Group will only share Kodak’s research results in digital camera manufacturing technology and memory card manufacturing technology. The market position poses any threat."

Boss Zhu felt a little thoughtful after hearing this, thinking that Fan Wuyi's idea was a bit weird, but he didn't know how Kodak would react?

For a new type of technology, a technology that is under continuous development, it is very likely that in three years there will be infinite possibilities. The technology that seems to be mature now may become a yellow flower in three years. , No longer has any value.

Moreover, the company that is currently exhibiting digital camera technology is not just Kodak. I really can’t understand why Fan Wuyi is willing to suffer such a loss to share Kodak’s related technology, and promise not to use this technology for the time being. product?

After everyone chatted for a while, the meal prepared by the manager's spirit finally arrived. The meat and vegetable mix is ​​very reasonable. It is also pleasing to watch. The old Baifen brought here is a private collection of Shang for 30 years, Beijing. It is also rare here, and the waiter who went to develop the photos for Shen Ying also ran back and showed them to Shen Ying with the prepared photos.

Fan Wubing took two photos and looked at them. This one was printed out. The effect is still a bit rudimentary. Although this is a 1.6 million-pixel digital camera, the lens is also professional. But the clarity still needs to be improved. Although the effect is much better than that of ordinary point-and-shoot cameras, Fan Wuyi, who is accustomed to mature digital camera technology, sees it as a rookie-level digital camera.

"It's not bad to see it, but the effect of long-distance imaging is not good. This. The effect of printing is not satisfactory, but it is still worth it." After Fan Wuyi judged it, he took two banknotes and tipped the waiter. .

"Thank you sir." The waiter smiled suddenly after taking the tip.

"Ms. Fan is really wealthy? The tips are all 100 yuan in US dollars?" Boss Zhu joked when he saw this, "** is to pour you two cups of tea. Isn't it the same for tipping?"

Fan Wubing hahayi. He smiled, "If Boss Zhu does it, it will be a sky-high price. But I don't have the guts. Otherwise, I have to let people know and I won't be shot to death?"

Speaking of it, Fan Wuyi's tip was a little too much, and it wasn't unreasonable.

During this period of time, he paid too much attention to details such as digital camera technology. So when he came to eat today and encountered this incident unintentionally, he gave him a hint, although it may not be the case now. The best time for a digital camera, but it is imperative to start tracking the latest research technology and prepare for marketization.

After all, the market prospects of digital cameras and related products are extremely broad. Not only are their markets very large, but they can also be transferred to mobile phones to form a leading advantage in their industry. This process is not very difficult.

Of course, in fact, if Fan Wubing waits until the digital camera technology is mature and hopes to acquire existing technology and then develop new products, it is also possible, but the price may be higher. Consider from this aspect, get the current If you develop the technology at the bottom, and then continuously obtain the progress of Kodak within three years, and then combine your own needs to carry out the transformation, the effect will be better.

Moreover, Fan Wubing also hopes that his research institute can digest and absorb these digital technologies, and develop components with independent intellectual property rights for the digital photography technology used in mobile phones. In that case, the lasting competitiveness will be stronger.

Fan Wubing is very clear about the prospects of digital shooting technology in the next few years. If it is only in terms of digital cameras, or the sales volume has not reached the level of desire in Fan Wubing’s mind, but taking into account the digital Fan Wubing was more excited about the widespread use of shooting technology in mobile phones.

Shen Ying was more interested in digital cameras, so she asked Fan Wubing if there are any newest models in China, or to what extent are the latest foreign products? Can you get some of them back for fun?

Boss Zhu said with a smile, "Actually, it's very simple. Anyway, I want to negotiate with Kodak. Just ask them directly. It is guaranteed that it will be their most advanced product, or I will give it to you for nothing."

Fan Wubing replied, "It's not impossible, but if you talk about business later, it's like accepting commercial bribes."

To be honest, Boss Zhu’s secretary contacted Kodak as soon as possible. Kodak President Pei Xuede was about to fly to Beijing for activities. Hearing that Fan Wubing was interested in participating in this project, he said immediately. It is necessary to arrange the visit to China in advance, and strive to see Fan Wuyi as early as possible.

"Look, Kodak is very positive, right?" Fan Wubing said with a smile, "My request is not excessive at all."

In fact, he also knows very well that the reason why Kodak is not very disgusted with this request is mainly because the sales of digital cameras are still relatively small. In terms of sales of 1 million units this year, the actual operating income has not exceeded 2 billion. U.S. dollars, more than a dozen large companies divide up the two billion U.S. dollar market, and there is really not much money left in the division.

As for the future situation or how, I still can’t see it now, but companies like Kodak that promote digital camera technology on the one hand and still maintain the leading advantages in traditional camera technology and image processing technology on the other hand, it is obviously impossible to integrate digital Camera technology is my only goal.

In fact, Kodak’s goal is very clear. Since everyone is rushing to engage in cameras and digital cameras, then I will engage in low-level unavoidable service support, digital printing of graphics and images and other implementation technologies. You are all engaged in cameras. But it's impossible not to print it out, right? Since printing is required, we cannot do without our technical support.

Fan Wubing admires Kodak's idea very much. He also knows how big China's future digital printing and graphic imaging market is. Therefore, he would rather not point fingers, but also hope to obtain a certain percentage of shares through capital injection. This is a ride.

If you can reach a cooperation agreement with Kodak, you can easily use the service system formed by Kodak to provide value-added services for your mobile phone digital imaging technology after the digital camera and mobile phone digital technology matures. The scale of this market is even greater. It is large, and there is not much input cost. Basically, it is pure profit.

After doing this, Boss Zhu's interest improved. Everyone started to eat. Boss Zhu also drank two glasses of wine with Fan Wuyao and chatted with each other.

Shen Ying was eating while flipping through the photos. Suddenly she asked a question, "I remember Lucky film is also pretty good. Are they going to be acquired?"

Speaking of this question, Boss Zhu paused, and then replied, "In fact, this question has also been mentioned by many people."

In the 1980s, Lucky, the leader of China's motion picture film, faced market demand and seized the opportunity to make a decisive transformation. It developed China's first-generation color se film, realizing the leap from motion picture film to civilian photographic consumables.

However, due to the large gap between the domestic film industry and the world level, some domestic film factories started a wave of comprehensive introduction at that time. Xiamen and Shantou photosensitive companies successively introduced two color roll production lines. Lucky adheres to the foundation of self-reliance and introduces technology for its own use.

However, the introduction of the tide did not revitalize China's photosensitive industry, and the Shang Hai Cai roll line failed to form a design scale. Xiamen and Shantou suffered losses year after year, while Wuxi, Tianjin and other companies just barely maintained it.

Only Lucky has formed a good cycle mechanism of producing one generation, improving one generation, developing one generation, and pre-researching one generation. In 1992, Lucky Gold BR100 came out. Lucky shortened the gap between itself and Kodak from 40 years. For eight years. Elected as the king of film in China with its superb color performance and excellent independent technology.

By 1996, Lucky Film's output of color film, color film, color film, and aerospace film accounted for 100% of the country’s total output, and the market share reached

"However, the traditional photosensitive material industry is a capital technology-intensive industry, and its research and exhibition costs are an important indicator of its technological leadership. In 1995, Kodak’s research costs were US$900 million, while Lucky’s research costs The cost is only three million U.S. dollars, and the difference between the two is more than three hundred times." Boss Zhu said to Fan Wuyao with some emotion, "Although Lucky has greatly shortened the gap with Kodak, it has been caused by the gap in recent years. The technological difference of the company is immeasurable. Before Lucky was able to occupy such a large market share, the big factor was the degree of market openness and the price factor. However, with the economic development, people’s perception of imaging technology With continuous improvement, Lucky’s competitiveness will quickly decay. So I support a full-scale joint venture, but some people don’t see this. They simply oppose this cooperation proposal from the words “national industry”. , It’s really annoying."

Fan Wubing nodded. He was very clear that with the advent of digital imaging technology, traditional photosensitive materials are facing a crisis of total decline. The industry substitution crisis will make the gap between Lucky and Kodak bigger and bigger, but facing the digital transformation, they are even more powerless and unable to come up with a solution.

Many things in China, especially those related to state-owned enterprises, are very difficult to deal with. In the real history, Lucky was interested in establishing a digital imaging company in 2000, but in 2001, Lucky Digital Imaging The research report on the feasibility of the imaging material project with an annual output of 20 million square meters of the company was approved by the State Planning Commission, and the preliminary design review meeting was to be entered. The project demonstration of the project was delayed for three times year.

During this period, established film manufacturers such as Kodak, Fuji, Konica, and Aike all upgraded their old printing networks to digital printing, and have long been involved in the manufacture of digital cameras. At this time, they lacked core technology and capital investment. Lucky, but only to watch the excitement.

Soon, Lucky was left far behind by competitors. When Lucky finally cooperated with Epson and opened its first digital laser printing shop, Kodak had more than 1,800 digital printing network service points. The backwardness of digital printing bases slowed down the business exhibition of Lucky's digital printing product chain, and the crown of kings finally fell to the dust~lightnovelpub.net~Sometimes, it is not what you want, it just depends on the investment of domestic research. , We can determine whether this industry has the potential to develop. Instead of leaving it here and slowly dying out, it is better to promote the market earlier. "Fan Wubiao said with some emotion, "If the domestic corporate system problems are not resolved, it is impossible to increase research investment, but under the current circumstances, if there is no increase in research investment, any industry will have to Lagging. It is like the technology of general-purpose computers in China. In the early 1980s, there were still some things that could be obtained, but by now, it has been unable to catch the tail of others. Power is sometimes easy to use, sometimes not easy to use. The system is also the same. In the past or our system was adapted to the development of productivity, but if it is to be transformed into a market economy, the management mechanism of state-owned enterprises needs to be changed. If it changes, otherwise it will only change more and more chaotically, and the more it changes, the worse it will be. In the end, everyone will finish playing together. "

Shen Ying clamped a piece of matsutake, plugged Fan Wuyao's mouth, and said, "Hurry up and eat. This is a meal, not a state-owned enterprise system criticism meeting."

Boss Zhu burst into laughter when he heard this, Fan Wubing's mouth was stuffed with a large piece of matsutake mushrooms, but it was very uncomfortable for Yu Yan to stop.

After swallowing it easily, Fan Wubing said, "The state-owned enterprise now feels the same as I just now. I can't tell it, and I feel uncomfortable."
