Extraordinary Genius

When I saw this digital camera today, Feng Yu suddenly thought that a lot of the digital cameras of previous generations turned into digital cameras, that is, both photographs and video clips.

Now, there are digital cameras, and even back in '98, YANNI launched the first digital camera in the true sense, but the storage device was still a 3.5-inch floppy disk.

In other words, the digital camera can only make short films, and a little longer, the capacity is not enough. Later, there were VCD CDs as digital cameras for storage devices, and now DVDs as storage devices have evolved over generations.

However, Feng Yu is clear that in the future, either flash memory will be used as storage device, or hard disk will be used as storage device, and this kind of DVD will soon be eliminated.

Back in their previous lives, it seemed that Yuni, Dongzhi and other companies later worked together to develop DV standards and HDV standards, that is, HD digital video standards, and then they made a lot of money simply by relying on patent licensing, technology licensing, etc.

At that time, it was filled with all kinds of domestically produced DVs, and the price was not very high, and what was being used was to talk about their technology. In this way, domestic manufacturers are blocked from technological research and development, so that they can only buy new technologies from companies such as Yuni, and thus be monopolized upstream by companies such as Yuni.

Feng Yu pinched his chin, now there are only DV standards, should we get HDV standards first?

In other words, can it block the development of enterprises in the island country for a long time? Backwards, it also allows them to start confronting themselves and thus abandon their monopoly.

This needs to be discussed with Philip, Jiang Wanfeng, Xu Lihua, etc. Even if the investment is high, it needs to be done. This future profit is not a small amount.

Besides, this technology can be fully applied to mobile phones, mainstream phones in the future, but they can shoot videos. If Windstorm is the first phone to launch a video shoot, then Windstorm will never be able to shake it again!

However, the immediate priority is to upgrade the DVD format.

Windstorm Electronics dominates the DVD forum and develops HDDVD, which is a high-definition DVD format. Of course, this is also a product that comes with HD TVs.

When the TV wasn't so clear, the DVDs you developed in HD worked for nothing, and it still worked that way.

But now that the TV has HD, the difference between a HD DVD and a regular DVD can be seen with the naked eye. If possible, who doesn't like watching movies more clearly?

As for the HD DVDs you said would be more expensive? That's not true, the people who bought HD TVs are not bad money in themselves!

And Feng Yu also learned that the DVD alliance joined by Yuni and others also began to lead the development of Blu-ray DVDs, which are also HD DVDs, but the standards of both sides are different again.

The island companies that were originally in the DVD Forum, such as Xiaoxia, JVC, Hitachi, Shilling, etc. withdrew from the DVD Forum and invested in the DVD Alliance because they had other problems with Windstorm Electronics.

In their view, they were treated unfairly in the DVD forum, mainly because after the expiration of the approved delegate seats under the chair, other companies in the island country, it turns out that the approving delegates were not on a rotating basis, but rather those small companies in Huaxia, were successfully elected and the blackcurtain was too serious!

And they completely forgot that the technology they acquired in the DVD forum, they turned to companies such as Yanni to help the DVD alliance in exchange for other benefits.

Otherwise, the DVD Alliance would have been long overdue for a stronger DVD forum, with far more technology, funding and membership.

This Blu-ray DVD Alliance will lead the development and promotion of Blu-ray DVD standard formats, and the lower companies will join without hesitation.

Feng Yu had long anticipated the act of stabbing behind his back. Fortunately, on the HDDVD forum, the major companies are still there, such as Philip, Thomson, Tata, Four Stars, Stars, etc.

In that case, in addition to some second-tier and third-line consumer electronics companies in island countries and Europe and the United States, other companies are still on the DVD Forum.

But island countries have always been among the best in the world in the field of electronic consumer goods, and their energy cannot be underestimated.

Blu-ray DVDs and HDDVDs actually still have a lot in common, like the original 120-mm diameter disc as storage medium, and both use 405 nm blue laser beams for reading and writing operations (DVDs are 650 nm wavelengths of red light reading and writing operations and CDs are 780 nm wavelengths), but just like the DVD Forum and DVD Alliance standards, different formatting standards have been developed.

The HDDVD that Feng Yu and the others promoted has the great advantage that it is made in the same way as traditional DVDs, that is, manufacturers do not need to replace the equipment, they just need to debug it.

As for capacity, the single-layer data for HDDVD is 15G, and the single-layer data they promote for Blu-ray DVD reaches 25G, and it looks like they have a larger storage capacity for Blu-ray DVD, which should be more popular.

Unfortunately, they don't understand that this HD DVD is destined to be just a transitional product, because flash memory apps are growing faster and faster.

That's right, in theory, DVDs can burn sixteen layers, so Feng Yu's peak HDDVD capacity, which they promote, is only 180G, while Yuni's peak Blu-ray DVD capacity reaches 400G.

Let's not say that this is just theoretical capacity. Currently, mainstream equipment, that is, can burn double layers, can burn three layers less. More than four floors, not at all!

YANNI's Blu-ray DVD format is itself different from traditional burning, and if you want to update the product line, then naturally, it increases their manufacturing costs.

HDDVD wins at low prices in the early stages. After all, an hour or two of HD movies at this time won't exceed 15G. Even with the Titanic, double layers of data are enough, and the equipment doesn't need to be upgraded.

And they think that their Blu-ray DVDs can also be used as commercial data storage devices to provide server data backups or something. Needless to say, mobile hard drives are commonly used for storage, and the most sickening thing about mobile hard drives is their vulnerability. But wouldn't Blu-ray DVDs be easily damaged?

Most of these commercial data storage devices in the future are flash memory!

When this Blu-ray DVD develops, the flash capacity should also exceed 128G, and there will be a more stable and compact flash drive, what do you think others will choose?

Feng Yu promoted this HDDVD for profit and dragged the island companies into the technology competition on the HD disc, leaving them without energy and focused on developing flash memory technology.

Two years later, when they regret it!
