Chapter five hundred and thirty sixth to the real picture
Two days later, Gao Bo flew from the capital to Los Angeles, and Chen Kangjie asked Xiong Ziqiang to take the car to pick him up.
This was Gao Bo's first time abroad. When he saw Chen Kangjie's luxurious villa in Beverly Hills, he was very surprised. He understood that his boss's younger brother was much better than his boss.
"There are people who have prepared you, there are eight people in total. The salary they receive should be higher than yours at this stage. You must be mentally prepared and tolerant in this regard." As soon as they met, Chen Kangjie directly worked for Gao Bo to avoid his psychological imbalance.
"It is recommended that they pay them a salary." Gao Bo asked.
Before coming to the United States, Chen Yuchang once told him that after arriving in the United States, everything would be subject to Chen Kangjie's opinions.
"According to their current annual salary of $65,000 in the United States, you can offer them an annual salary of $200,000. These people are all treasures, so they should be used well," Chen Kangjie told Gao Bo.
"So far, I don't know what industry we are going to do, I just heard Mr. Chen say it, yes, VCD, I have never seen anything like VCD."
"Don't say you haven't seen it, no one in the world has seen it now. You know the video recorder now. VCD replaces this. Their recording format and playback method are different. VCDs have higher advantages in terms of quality and storage. The current popular video recorder is currently, but in ten years, all video recorders will be replaced by this thing. The market prospects are brilliant. It depends on how you do it. It's basically like this. You can consult these technicians for technical things," Chen Kangjie replied.
"They can make this thing." Gao Bo was very excited after listening to Chen Kangjie's description.
"They can't, but they can remake it."
After hearing Chen Kangjie say that those people cannot create this so-called VCD, Gao Bo's heart was so excited that he sank. Then he heard that it could be replicated. His heart was confused and he couldn't figure out what Chen Kangjie was talking about.
"In Jiangmen City, eastern Guangdong Province, a company called "Wanyan" will be established soon. I just talked to their investors two days ago and learned that they will soon develop the first batch of prototypes. If you are ready, you can quickly create one or two prototypes. As long as you have the prototype, these engineers can copy it out." Chen Kangjie helped them come up with ideas.
"Wanyan."
"Yes, you have to seize the speed and seize the opportunity. This is the key to your progress from a large enterprise to a corporate group. You must always focus on R&D. These engineers are just the beginning, and you must increase R&D later. The competitors you face will be international giants such as Philips, Toshiba, Sony, etc.," added Chen Kangjie.
"If they develop it first, will we still have a chance?" Gao Bo is not an idiot either.
"That's right, you have three advantages. First, they should not apply for patents. I have tested this point. So, the first thing you do after your successful copying is to apply for patents. This is the key, including patents in major countries and markets around the world. Don't just limit them to the country. Second, you have more abundant funds. I heard that you still have more than 2 billion RMB of funds now. These funds are enough for you to fully develop this industry. Their funds are weak and they will go very slowly. Third, you can operate the market more flexibly. Your decisions are independent and independent. But they are not. They will be greatly restricted by the government, which will seriously delay their pace and efficiency, and thus deepen the manufacturing cost of products. In addition, I would like to add that you must not make it big and complete. VCDs are made of machines, but it is not possible to lack content. Just like cars do not have gasoline, but auto manufacturers will not make gasoline by themselves. Therefore, you should not do the supply of VCD discs. You can leave them to other companies to do it, including copyrights for the view content, and focus on making machines." Chen Kangjie explained his analysis.
The final part is also the confusion that Wan Yan faces himself. They not only make machines, but also discs, and they also talk about the copyright by themselves. The stall was too big, but in the end they couldn't keep up. Chen Kangjie naturally didn't want Gao Bo and others to follow this old path again.
Chen Kangjie didn't say one thing here, that is, as long as they don't make discs, a large number of pirated copies will emerge. Even if they do it, a large number of pirated copies will still emerge. Under the current market environment and legal framework, it is impossible to prevent pirated copies from coming. If Chen Kangjie asked them to use genuine film and television works, the cost will not only increase greatly, but the most important thing is that it will hinder the popularity of VCDs. The price of genuine discs is many times higher than that of pirated discs. It is estimated that ordinary people can afford machines and look down on content, just like the later pirated version of Microsoft's operating system software. If all genuine versions are required, the domestic computer penetration rate will definitely be greatly reduced, and many people cannot afford to use genuine operating systems at all.
"I remember everything. If you say so, wouldn't this be a foundation and opportunity for our country's electronics industry?" Gao Bo is worthy of being attracted by Chen Kangjie's help, and he still has this vision.
"It's totally correct. This is why you have to apply for domestic and international patents as soon as possible. If the patent is in hand, you can block the world's giants to a certain extent. Even if you can't stop them, you have gained the initiative and advantages. Don't forget to charge their patent fees, so that their costs are higher than you, and can also increase your financial returns." Chen Kangjie helped out another idea.
"I have heard of the patent fees collected. I have never heard of domestic companies collecting patent fees from foreigners before. They are all the patent fees collected by us," Gao Bo said sadly and longingly.
"Haha, then let's start with you. This is an epoch-making precedent," Chen Kangjie laughed.
"Well, we must fight for this opportunity. After I go back, I will build a laboratory, start building a factory, and expand the recruitment of scientific researchers." Gao Bo, who is passionate, is now in a state of great enthusiasm, and he wishes he could roll up his sleeves and do something big.
"My brother, his education level is relatively low. You need to help with this. I have told you what to say. As for what to do, you can do it. This is also a brilliant starting point for your career," Chen Kangjie finally explained.
Gao Bo stayed in Los Angeles for three days, negotiated and signed a ten-year contract with the eight people. Xu Risheng paid their annual salary one year in advance at one time. Among these eight people, five Chinese were Chinese, one Indian, one Korean and one Japanese. These people were asked to sign a confidentiality agreement. Once the research secrets of their Xu Risheng company were leaked, they would face a penalty of up to $10 million. Xu Risheng company promised that their salary would increase by no less than 7%.
This is what Gao Bo himself thought of. Since the market potential is so great that they were going to steal other people's achievements, he was also worried that his company's research would be stolen. This is to prevent problems before it happens.
Gao Bo left Los Angeles two days earlier than Chen Kangjie. Chen Kangjie had to complete the chase scene before leaving. In the past two days, his family called him almost every day because school was about to start, but Chen Kangjie was dragged by this scene.
The scene where Harry was riding a horse was dropped from the roof and hung on the roof of a high-rise building was filmed for two nights. A police horse he found in advance was not in line with Swarzenegger, and he changed another one in the middle. In order to create a suspense, it suddenly came to an abrupt end. It was shot at the roof at night. The wind was relatively strong, and multiple camera positions were changed to success in the end. Swarzenegger was asked by Chen Kangjie to show a righteous temperament. There was also a small episode here. Because this shot had a certain danger, Swarzenegger asked to use a stand-in, but Chen Kangjie refused.
"If you find a substitute when it is a little difficult, then this star is too easy to be a star. It's better to just find that substitute to act. If you want to shape this image, you must first be brave and courageous. As an excellent actor, you must at least have to sacrifice your spirit. You cannot just enjoy halo and high salary, and avoid paying and responsibilities."
Chen Kangjie's words made Swarzeneger speechless and could only tie the safety rope to go on the battle. However, when filming the explosive snow chase at the entrance of the "Swiss" villa, Chen Kangjie still allowed Swarzeneger to use a stand-in at two places.
There was a big dispute between the crew about Az riding a motorcycle on his way to the top of the hotel from a high-rise hotel to the rooftop swimming pool of another ground-floor hotel. Jedica and the others thought it should be done with computer special effects, but Chen Kangjie thought it should be shot in real life and the real effect. Of course, the risk was much greater than the part when Swarzenegger fell downstairs.
In the end, Chen Kangjie was the director and producer, so he gained the upper hand. In this period, Art Marik dared not act. He could ride a motorcycle, but he would never dare to ride a motorcycle and leap such a wide road.
"Does there be no stunt actors in the United States? Do you want me to invite Xiao Hei from Baodao?" Chen Kangjie stood on the roof and asked his colleagues on the crew.
Chen Kangjie remembered that Xiao Hei could fly over the Great Wall and the Yellow River, so he should be able to complete this action.
"Yes, there are, but the difficulty is really too great. The distance between the two buildings is 24 meters, and the edge will exceed 27.5 meters. Although the gap between the two buildings is nearly 30 meters, the danger is still very high. It is estimated that only Peter Hnetkovsky dares to take on this task. He has filmed the stunts in "The First Blood" and is very brave." Hollywood films, and it is not a contempt for hiring stunt actors from Treasure Island. So even if he is not willing to accept Chen Kangjie's adventure, Rofoman still recommended a top stunt actor.
"OK, then I'll find him, can you do it?" Chen Kangjie handed over the task to the recommender Luo Fuman.
