Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 1027 AIWA Defendant (7/10)

“Tortoise, Yoo Seong, what are you two doing here?” In the office of the Windstorm Empire State Building, Feng Yu accidentally looked at Masao Tortoise and Yoo Sheng.

At this time, Masahiro Tortoise should be discussing the handover of hard drive technology with Taihua Holding Group. That company paid a high price and should be put into production at the inland factory as soon as possible, and organize technicians to continue their research.

As for Liu Shengzhao, didn't you say that the company has launched a new audio-visual and enjoyable headset? In the past few days, you should pay attention to the sales of new products.

“Boss, AIWA is in trouble, we've been sued!” Liu Sheng said angrily.

“Hmm? The defendant? Where'd you get sued for what?” Feng Yu's first reaction was to say what happened to Ni's moth.

“It was sued by a company on the U.S. side called the Association of the Record Industry, saying that our MP3 infringed their intellectual property rights because we could download free MP3 music without spending money.” Liu Shengzhao explained.

Feng Yu frowned: "Didn't I ask you to get a website for a fee to download? Didn't you say it was done? ”

“Well done, every user who buys our MP3 gets a free account, which allows users to download unlimited amounts of any MP3 music from our website within a month, and we are authorized to do so. But many users are not satisfied with the number of music on our site, and some forums and sites offer free downloads, what does that have to do with us? ”

Liu Sheng Zhao felt very depressed, like he was a watermelon knife seller, someone killed him with a watermelon knife, do you want him to be the head of the knife seller? Besides, he cautioned that the knife was used to cut watermelons, not to cut people!

The American Record Industry Association clearly sees their MP3 sales increase, profits are good, and creates jealousy!

We're not selling pirates. Why sue us?

Masao Tortada added: "This complaint was heard by a court on the US side, which asked us to appear in court. I've hired the most famous barrister on the East Coast, and we have to win this case! ”

“Well, you're right, this is the product they're jealous of. If we're right, we're not afraid to fight him. However, the case should not be won at once, it should be delayed for a month or two, and the case should be brought to the attention and discussion of the media. ”

Liu Sheng Zhao didn't understand, but Masao Tortoise said admirably: "What does the boss mean, let this lawsuit, to promote MP3? This will allow more people to notice the MP3, which is equivalent to a US wide ad, and even create momentum around the world to boost our MP3 sales. ”

Talking to smart people is simple. If you find such a subordinate, Feng Yu can save a lot of time. Liu Shengzhao is very good at studying music electronics products, and the management of the company is very good, but sales are far worse than Masao Tortoise.

Moreover, Liu Sheng is getting older and slower to react. The motivation of these two years seems not to be as sufficient as it was then. Looks like it's time to pick a successor for AIWA.

Liu Shengzhao's deputy was good, under 40 years old, followed Liu Shengzhao for almost 20 years, went through the difficult times of AIWA, and also went through the glory of AIWA. Importantly, like Masahiro Tortoise, this guy is extremely good at kissing his ass and has ambition.

Feng Yu doesn't like someone who doesn't even have ambition. He is not afraid that his subordinates have ambitions, either way, he will not be able to turn out his palms!

“Liu Sheng, didn't the MP3 reach the second generation, when are you going to launch the third generation?” Feng Yu asked.

“When the case is won, we launch a third generation product. This new product will increase to 512M capacity with only two fingers wide and so long fingers, using two 7 batteries will also guarantee 8 hours of continuous playback, very lightweight. Also comes with LCD display with arrangement playback order function...”

Listen to Liu Shengzhao's introduction, Feng Yu is very satisfied.

That's right, MP3s are smaller and easier to carry than any other portable player, which is also a huge selling point.

Chaney's MD player is good, but it's too big. Since it's called a portable player, it's very important to carry two words.

It's just that the MP3 uses flash memory, which is very expensive at the moment, but the advantage is that, as long as you have a computer, the songs in it can be replaced at will.

The best part is that the song can be downloaded according to your preferences, and the CD is usually an album, not everyone likes it, even if it's a collection of songs.

If the CD didn't have this disadvantage, cassette listening could have been eliminated a long time ago.

“Has anyone noticed our MP3 on the market and started imitating it?” This is important, one step ahead and one half step ahead, and the energy and R&D costs involved vary from day to day.

“Yes, according to our survey, at least the four-star group has started researching MP3 and has also launched one, but the head and function are similar to our generation, but the launch time is the same as our second generation, so nobody is asking, except in South Korea. Some of the other companies in South Korea are starting to do research, but they haven't even launched their first machines yet. On the US side, there's a company called Diamond, and there's also an MP3, which performs between our generation and generation two, and on the North American side, there's still some sales. ”

Liu Shengzhao was somewhat proud. The four-star group was just a follower of the wind. With the wind, you want to go beyond our leader, isn't that a joke?

AIWA is not only technologically leading, but also leading in sales channels, factories, brands, and many other brands' MP3s add up to fail to match AIWA's sales.

“Since there are many companies producing MP3s, have they been defended? ”

“No, we're the only ones accused, so it's definitely against us! And here, only our company has an authentic MP3 music download site, none of the other companies! ”

As soon as Liu Shengzhao said this, he was angry. You don't sue, you shouldn't sue!

Once Feng Yu listened, he was also a little angry inside. What, you think we're bullies? Or do you think AIWA's doing too much, trying to squash the tap?

If AIWA was the only company, it might really hurt a little. After such a delay, let the other companies pick up the cheap. But there's Feng Yu behind AIWA. If you really want to fight, let's fight!

This is exactly what you can use to crack down on products from other companies. Didn't your record industry association say it was illegal to download pirated MP3 music? We provided the original version, but those companies didn't, so go sue them.

“Well, the lawsuit should be followed and R&D should continue. Don't be afraid of the high R&D cost investment. This product will certainly bring us more profit in the future. Let me know if there's any trouble with the lawsuit, and I'll figure it out. ”
