At the end of December 1979, Christmas just passed.

Lin Qi's focus gradually shifts to the newly established new entrepreneurial electronics company. After all, Lin Qi knows the depth of the publishing industry. In the traditional publishing industry, the most important thing is not the excellent works, but the platform and channels.

In such a small place in Hong Kong, content is naturally king.

But looking at the world publishing market, the main channel is the king.

The United States, Japan, Europe... These markets with relatively strong profits all have monopoly oligopolies that occupy the mountains and divide the territory. If a good book is not in the hands of giants, the circulation will inevitably be limited.

For example, the Harry Potter series is in the hands of international publishing giants and has become a publishing myth with a total circulation of hundreds of millions of volumes.

But if it were a book that also had potential, but it was not in the hands of the giant, or it was not favored by the giant, and it stopped at the sales of millions, and it had reached its peak.

The Hong Kong and Taiwan markets of Chinese books are limited, and the mainland market has not yet been opened. Even if it is opened, there will be no profits for pirated copies everywhere. And it will be even more difficult to achieve any results after being translated and published overseas.

But the electronics industry is different - hardware such as walkman, recorder, mp3, etc. can be used as music content and publishing platforms... These products can be made bigger and can ride on the head of music companies to piss and shit.

Electronic games are the king of platforms. Platforms such as consoles, handheld consoles and other platforms occupy a large number of users. In the future, there is no need to develop games by themselves. Other game companies are authorized to develop games on the platform. At the same time, the platform asks for sales sharing and can collect money while lying down.

There are also vcd, DVD, etc., which can even make the film and television industry of this era. Because the market size of film and television CDs is no less than that of traditional TV and theaters.

Of course, these products require money and a strong technical team. Lin Qi's moves will not be that big for the time being, and enters markets that require massive capital investment.

At present, the first project of a new entrepreneurial electronics company is a simpler - a function calculator!

Even if this product is basically completed, further optimization of the product is needed to reduce production costs.

Therefore, the current new startup electronics company is equivalent to a gold-swalking beast that only burns money but does not make money. At present, it requires at least 3,000 yuan per day.

Fortunately, the publishing company has been on track and its profits are growing rapidly. Before December has ended, the publishing company has made more than 80,000 yuan in profits.

The profit dividends of the publishing company, coupled with Lin Qi's savings, can support the expenses of the electronics company's R&D team.

Of course, there are constant good news on new entrepreneurial publishing. "Fighting Break the Sky" has been flying against the market in Hong Kong and has gradually become a climate, which immediately attracted Taiwanese publishers to discuss copyright cooperation.

Zhang Dahai respected Lin Qi's opinion and asked many publishing companies to offer the highest copyright to whom. In the end, Crown Publishing House won the agency copyright of "Fighting Break the Sky" in Taiwan at a buyout price of HK$500, a thousand words.

After obtaining the agent copyright, Lin Qi asked Crown Publishing House to pay a deposit of HK$200,000 in advance. As a major in Taiwan's publishing industry, Crown is naturally not stingy and readily advances the deposit.

After receiving the advance payment, Xinchuangye Publishing House conducted a round of shareholder dividends.

Lin Qi received a dividend of 100,000 yuan and re-injected it into a new entrepreneurial electronics company, alleviating the financial crisis of the new entrepreneurial electronics company.

The main tasks of new entrepreneurial electronics companies are learning, learning, research and development, and research and development!

Not only do you further optimize the performance and cost of your own function calculator, but you can also buy all kinds of calculators you can buy on the market to disassemble the phone.

Finally, we came to the conclusion that the functional calculator of new startups, both in terms of technology and cost, far exceeds the existing products on the market.

"In other words, the Longteng 79 calculator we developed has reached the highest standards in the industry?" Lin Qi asked.

"I dare not say that the world is the best, but... I will definitely win when fighting a price war!" Gao Tian said, "The product is basically mature, and it is impossible to improve further in a short period of time!"

Lin Qi nodded and said, "Then we will find a factory to start production!"

...

New entrepreneurial electronics companies do not have their own factories and cannot afford to build factories in the short term. Therefore, they naturally have to find OEM factories to produce.

In the 1980s, Hong Kong's manufacturing industry had not yet declined, and Hong Kong electronic watches and calculators became popular in the mainland at lower prices than similar products of Japan.

Even the famous giants Wang An Computer and Atari Game Company have set up factories in Hong Kong. It can be seen that Hong Kong electronic OEM in this era is at least not inferior to Taiwan.

Of course, after the 1990s, Hong Kong's electronic products gradually disappeared because after the labor cost of Hong Kong's land became more and more expensive, most factories moved directly to the mainland.

The scale of Hong Kong-funded enterprises in later generations in China seemed to be far inferior to that of Taiwanese-funded enterprises. But this is an illusion - because Taiwan has no unity, the label of Taiwanese-funded enterprises has always been Taiwanese-funded.

But Hong Kong-funded enterprises are different. After Hong Kong's return, many Hong Kong-funded enterprises directly integrated into the mainland and became mainland-funded enterprises.

Just like the famous Kingsoft Software in China in the 1990s, if you say it is not a mainland company, people will definitely be anxious about you. But Kingsoft Company originated in Hong Kong and the industry of Zhang Xuanlong’s family. In the early years, I didn’t ask for Bojun, but there was already a Kingsoft Company in Hong Kong.

Later, Qiu Bojun was appreciated by the Zhang family and joined the Hong Kong Kingsoft Company. Later, the Zhang family invested capital and Qiu Bojun developed technology and established Zhuhai Kingsoft Software Company in the mainland. Kingsoft Software is the most subsidiary of Hong Kong Kingsoft.

Of course, Zhang Xuanlong is a good boss in China and gives Qiu Bojun great autonomy. Moreover, it is almost difficult for the outside world to notice Zhang Xuanlong's existence, and only see Qiu Bojun in front of the stage.

Later, Qiu Bojun recruited Lei Jun and other subordinates, and Zhuhai Kingsoft Software developed better than Hong Kong Kingsoft Company. Later, Hong Kong Kingsoft business was taken over by Zhuhai Kingsoft.

Of course, although Lin Qi knew the name of Zhang Xuanlong, he did not visit him. After all, the Zhang family does not make electronic calculators at present, so they cannot produce OEMs for him!

Lin Qi visited the Rong family!

The Rong family is a famous national capitalist in modern history. After the founding of New China, although the Rong family actively responded to the policies of the new government, they also gained great political status. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the political turmoil also damaged the Rong family for a while.

After the reform and opening up, the Rong family had several ups and downs, and they were rehabilitated and returned to the political stage. However, from the perspective of wealth, the Rong family in the mainland has gone bankrupt and is no longer a capitalist, but an official holding power.

Although the Rong family branch that stayed in Hong Kong to develop has a big gap with the top wealthy families in Hong Kong, it is still a wealthy capital family.

After the reform and opening up, Rong Jian, a young man from the Rong family in mainland China, was not very interested in politics, but envied Hong Kong's life, so he decided to join his relatives in Hong Kong. When he arrived in Hong Kong, Rong Jian was empty-handed. Fortunately, Rong Jian's father also had some equity in the family business in Hong Kong. The proportion of those equity is very small, but over the past few decades, the company's dividends have been in the account and no penny has been moved.

After Rong Jian arrived in Hong Kong, under the guidance of his father, he asked his relatives in Hong Kong to liquidate the value and dividends of equity over the years. Although that investment was not much, decades later, assets of one million Hong Kong dollars were still liquidated, which became Rong Jian's first pot of gold in Hong Kong's development.

After having the confidence of HK$1 million, Rong Jian used the capital to invest in Aika Electronics Factory, which his cousin Rong Xin looked down upon.

This electronics factory was originally very small in scale, but Rong Jian continued to grow. Rong Jian's profit dividends and salary income in the factory also continued to increase his holdings and gradually became the major shareholder of Aika Electronics Factory.

Aika Electronics' main business is to produce electronic watches that are very popular in the mainland. Nowadays, small merchants who are a second-hand dealer in mainland China and resell Hong Kong electronic watches can make a fortune, let alone factories that produce electronic watches.

Because Aika Electronics Factory first sold electronic watches to the mainland market, and at this time, domestic electronic watches were basically in short supply. Therefore, Aika Electronics Factory's business showed explosive growth, with an output value of several million yuan, but in a few years, the output value will even exceed 100 million yuan!

A few years later, an American company was attracted by the rapid growth of Aika Electronics Factory and invested $12 million to buy the company. After the US capital bought it at a high price, electronic watch factories in mainland China were already blooming everywhere, and Aika Electronics later lost money and didn't even recognize it.

Rong Jian made tens of millions of profits because he took out this promising low-end electronics factory in time.

Lin Qi found Aika Electronics Factory to cooperate with him. In addition to Aika Electronics Factory having the ability to produce electronic calculators, the more important thing is that he knows Rong Jian’s underestimated background and energy!
