Chapter 781

Several people looked at Zhou Andong, not knowing what important thing he had forgotten, and all became nervous.

After all, Zhou Andong was doing such a big business, no matter what it was, the involvement would definitely be very large.

"Brother Hai, what's the date today?"

Yuan Hai was stunned. He clearly tore off the calendar page when he got up in the morning, why did he suddenly forget?

At this time, Yuan Tao spoke: "Today is the 15th!"

"Pa!"

"Remembered!" Zhou Andong slapped his thigh with his oily hand, stood up and went into the house, then looked back, "Brother Hai, who in the village has a phone?"

"The brigade has a phone!" Yuan Hongbiao also came in, and Yuan Tao and Chen Yuan also stood at the door.

Zhou Andong grabbed some washing powder to wash his hands: "Brother Hai, take me to the brigade's phone."

"I'll go with you!" Yuan Hongbiao put the bowl on the stove.

Zhou Andong waved his hand: "No need, Uncle, you eat, just let Brother Hai take me there."

"Brother, where are you going?" Xiao Bei came out of the house.

"I'm going to the brigade to make a phone call." Zhou Andong walked out.

Yuan Hongbiao didn't really want to eat. He ate here just to build a relationship with Zhou Andong and get close to him, so as to pave the way for his investment.

Now that Zhou Andong had urgent business to go to the brigade to make a call, he naturally had to follow. And Yuan Hai, Yuan Hao, and Chen Yuan had also finished eating and had nothing to do, so they followed Zhou Andong and left.

"I'm going too!" The weather outside was too hot, and Xiao Bei didn't want to go, but seeing everyone else leave, there was nothing to do at home, so she followed.

Old Branch Secretary Guan Shanyuan was holding his long-stemmed pipe, sitting under the willow tree in front of the village branch office, puffing away. From time to time, he looked up at the Yuan family's direction.

"Sigh!"

The old branch secretary sighed. Zhou Andong's arrival was an opportunity for Zhenxing Village. If it weren't for that dog-bastard Yuan Hongbiao making trouble, he would kneel down to let Zhou Andong stay and invest.

"Old Uncle Guan!"

Yuan Tao shouted from afar. The old branch secretary looked up and saw the two Yuan brothers and Chen Yuan, why were they with Yuan Hongbiao? And who were those two young people?

Immediately after, he reacted. It should be Yuan's nephew, the big boss Zhou Andong.

"Old Uncle Guan!" Yuan Hai walked over quickly, "We want to use the brigade's phone."

"Fine!" The old branch secretary just glanced at Zhou Andong, took out the key to open the team office door, and led several people inside.

"Call!"

Zhou Andong didn't stand on ceremony and quickly dialed a string of numbers.

………………

July 15, the Wan Yan VCD officially went on the market. Early in the morning, Hearing Lao Meng came to the office, followed by Old Sun.

Then the two sat in the office drinking tea and chatting. The atmosphere was very relaxed, but as time passed, both fell silent.

Knowing that most of this first batch of VCDs would be bought by major electronics companies, they still felt inexplicably nervous.

It was noon. The assistant called them out to eat, but neither of them felt hungry, so they didn't go to eat, but sat in the office waiting for market feedback.

"Ding-a-ling..."

The phone rang suddenly, startling the two people who were lost in thought.

Hearing Lao Meng quickly grabbed the phone, and Zhou Andong's voice came from the receiver.

"Hearing Lao Meng, I am Zhou Andong."

Hearing Lao Meng was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, and the anxiety in his heart immediately dissipated without a trace.

"I've been looking for you for several days. Finally, you still remember that VCD is on the market today."

Zhou Andong laughed heartily: "Is there no market feedback yet?"

Hearing Lao Meng said: "No, but it should be soon. They must be rushing to buy it at the first opportunity, absolutely cannot wait until the next day."

Zhou Andong asked: "How many units have been produced in the second batch?"

"Currently in production!" Hearing Lao Meng said: "According to what you said, only produce 1,000 units to maintain market share. Once counterfeit products hit the market in large numbers, we will immediately launch the 1.1 version and bring the price down to under 5,000."

Zhou Andong said: "Right, they will definitely start a price war. At that time, we will launch the 2.0 version and bring the 1.1 version down to under 3,000. In short, as long as you follow the plan I gave you, there won't be any problems."

"To tell you the truth, I haven't been able to reach you, and I really didn't have any confidence in my heart." Hearing Lao Meng laughed, "Now I have increased confidence, and we will definitely win this battle."

Zhou Andong also smiled: "Then I wish you a victory in the first battle. When I go back, let's celebrate properly."

"Good!" This call from Zhou Andong put Hearing Lao Meng in a great mood, "I'll wait for you."

After Zhou Andong put down the phone, he called Liu Qingjun of the electronics factory: "Old Liu, I am Zhou Andong. The Wang Yan VCD is on the market today, how is ours?"

An excited laugh came from the receiver: "Chairman, our first VCD officially rolled off the line yesterday."

Zhou Andong was very surprised: "So fast?"

Liu Qingjun said: "The factory building was roofed, the ground was paved with cement, and after it dried, the production line was installed."

Zhou Andong asked: "How is the DVD research and development going?"

Mentioning this, Liu Qingjun became even more spirited: "Key technology has been broken through. The old director said that by the beginning of next year, DVD will be developed."

Zhou Andong was also greatly encouraged: "Good!"

He knew that in December of next year, which is 1994, Sony and Philips took the lead in releasing the format and technical indicators of single-sided dual-layer 5.25-inch high-density multimedia CD, referred to as the multimedia optical disc system, which was the first standard DVD technical specification.

It can be said that from the appearance of VCD to the proposal of the preliminary specification of DVD, and then to the rolling off of the DVD prototype in early 1996, it only took a little over two years, and its rapid development speed was shocking.

However, in this life, the standard technical specification for DVD will be released by China's Yuzhou Technology, letting those little devils and Western thieves eat shit.

Zhou Andong said: "Our VCD will be launched half a year later, which is January 16, 1994. You tell the old director to release the DVD standard technical specification at the same time our Yuzhou VCD goes on the market."

"This should be no problem." Liu Qingjun, who was now truly high-spirited, said: "Chairman, let me tell you, the old director has already dug up more than 300 experts in the electronics field. It is said that many people are still handling their work and will come over soon."

Zhou Andong couldn't help but laugh out loud: "The old director is still the most capable."

"That's right!" Liu Qingjun said: "Our electronics factory's foundation is not generally thick. The old director's connections are not something ordinary people can compare to."

Zhou Andong exhorted: "Old Liu, you must take good care of these experts. They are all treasures and cannot have any problems."

"Don't worry!" Liu Qingjun said: "Except for the poor living conditions, there are no other problems."

Zhou Andong was also very helpless: "The accommodation conditions can be solved next year, for now, it can only be like this."
