Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 1518: Did Feng Yu Go Away?

Tomson suddenly announced that he would gradually abandon the plasma market by entering the LCD tablet field.

When the news came out, it caused a strong shock in the industry.

One of the world's top appliance companies announced the news, and it was one of the biggest manufacturers of solid plasma support before, which led many to wonder, is LCD really superior to plasma?

Plasma technology is still stronger than LCD for the time being, but the biggest problem is that island country manufacturers are reluctant to share the technology with other manufacturers.

Thomson, Si Xing Group and other top companies are behind the second camp, not to mention companies like Baoshima, which is completely in the third camp.

Plasma TVs do have high profits, but most of the profits have been made by island manufacturers. An alliance has been formed among the island countries of Qianyi, Qianyi, Summer Spectrum, etc., where they have a market share of 80 percent of plasma television and a profit of more than 90 percent!

Thomson and other companies, not only have low market share, but profit margins are not comparable to each other. Island manufacturers don't make a lot of money, but they ignore a question: Will plasma TVs still sell so well when they're the only ones left?

Consumers will not consider the slightest advantage of the grayscale, the slightest advantage of the gamut, or other advantages. In their view, just buy what they think is good for a certain amount of money, which is good, and the big reason is the value for money.

Because island country manufacturers don't have any advantages in the brand.

Sometimes something better is not necessarily accepted by consumers. In the field of communications, for example, CDMA technology is better than GSM in terms of power consumption, voice quality, and safety, but as a result, more users still choose GSM.

And the future development of communication technology, with GSM upgrade, 2G, 3G, 4G, etc., all the way up. But Qu Gao and the oligarchy CDMA slowly disappeared in the long river.

However, Feng Yu believes that the most important reason is the speed of progress in LCD technology, which many people didn't expect before. With so many people studying this area, so many small advances have been combined into such great advances.

Over the years, if plasma technology advances, if it's three steps away, LCD advances are three levels of jumping.

Now that the appearance of LCDs differs less and less from plasma, it is obvious to ordinary users that cheaper LCDs are good and have a longer service life and are not easy to spoil.

That plasma TV is broken. It costs a lot of money to fix it once, and the LCD is different.

Moreover, LCDs range from LCDs to LEDs, and many other new LCD technologies like TFT technology, IPS technology, TN technology, PVA technology, MVA technology, CPA technology and so on have been successfully developed.

Some of them have been successful in research and development, such as Windstorm Electronics, some of them on the side of the Four-Star Group, and some of them are actually manufacturers in island countries, and although they are mainly plasma televisions, they still make LCD monitors. In other words, now that the development of LCD technology is changing, everyone has their own main direction of attack.

Although the detailed criteria vary, at least the basic criteria for LCDs are followed. The popularization and promotion of standards have a critical impact on products.

LCD standards are controlled by island manufacturers, who require others to be like them, and if not, it's wrong. This alone has cost many companies producing plasma televisions.

At first it seemed like they were making money, but with the standard upgrade, their technology failed, slowly lagging behind, three years later, leaving them too far behind, falling out of the team.

Feng Yu insisted on developing LCD tablet technology. One is that the memory of previous life told him that the LCD later defeated the plasma, and it was also obvious that the LCD was more widely used.

Mobile phones alone will require constant technological advances in this area in the future, not to mention tablets, computers, televisions and so on.

When the plasma was really at a loss, in '08, the economic crisis, the expensive plasma TV suddenly caught in the trouble of stalling, so that LCD TV accounted for more than 80% of flat screen TV!

And the companies that were still running plasma televisions started losing money, and LCD televisions really entered the golden age.

Now LCD TVs are still thick, but as LED technology is updated, LCD TVs become thinner and thinner. LEDs are not new technology, but there's not a lot of people who paid attention to them before, and people just think of them as a bulb.

The LCD itself is not luminous and requires backlight illumination. LEDs make the lights smaller and the TV thinner. From putting it on the TV cabinet to wall-mounted.

Continuous advances in LCD technology will result in higher profits for Taihua Holdings and their allies. Now, of course, in flat-screen television alone, while LCD sales seem to be going to defy the Plasma Chamber for a short time, in fact, profits are far less than plasma.

That's also why Tomson was reluctant to quit the plasma market. So even though they accepted Feng Yu's suggestion, they decided on a two-way strategy.

This announcement by Thomson celebrates the island's manufacturers. In this way, their biggest enemies in plasma, only South Korea's four stars and LG, defeated South Korea and they could monopolize the plasma market.

The market is so big and still expanding, since Tom Sun is going to gradually withdraw, they should expand and eat the market that Tom Sun gave away, lest South Korean manufacturers take advantage of it.

So the top manufacturers in the island countries met again to discuss how market share should be divided. Unfortunately, they're a loose league, because they're competitors themselves.

It was the world's plasma boss who brought in other manufacturers from Tara Island to jointly control the market. Now that the market has opened up very well, how can he watch Yuni wait for the company to grow?

So a dark decision was made to expand the production line of plasma televisions, not only to seize the market that Thomson gave way to, but also to withdraw Thomson earlier from the plasma market.

This is also the idea of companies such as Yanni and Xia Spectrum. They want to expand their production capacity and improve their voice. Can't the boss of this alliance always put it down?

It was you last year, it was you this year, it's my turn next year, right?

As long as you have the biggest sales and the highest profit, you get the biggest say.

At the same time, the struggling Baoshima plasma manufacturers also saw the dawn and had more opportunities without a giant competition.

In this way, their chances of standing out in the plasma television industry are even greater.

In the view of these plasma manufacturers, Thomson made a very wrong decision. Especially rumored to have listened to Feng Yu's suggestion, they made a mockery of it.

Isn't Feng Yu right every time he invests? Didn't expect you to take a look?
