Chapter 148 Wireless Technology is Exorbitantly Priced



"Since I joined the company, I haven't had a single blockbuster product that sold five million units. Okay, my friend, your wireless transmission system. Can it only be used in stereos and home phones? And stereos can be sold to movie theaters, are there five million movie theaters in the world?"

Reading shrugged and said sarcastically.

“You think 2.4G wireless transmission is only used for cinema-level audio transmission? Haha! It has many other applications,” Xing Baohua continued.

"Xing, we have our own laboratory, and we've also tested your technology. It's just that the distance is very, very short. Although I don't understand how you can extend the distance, electronic wireless transmission has already been developed and successfully implemented in Europe?"

Reding took a sip of coffee and stared at Xing Baohua as he spoke.

"Alright, Reading, since we can't reach an agreement now, we'll have to talk about it later, and the price will increase. Also, you won't have any priority anymore. Besides, wireless technology is used in many, many fields."

“For example, you have to convince me!” Redding said with a shrug.

"It can also be used for wireless telephone exchanges and computer LANs! This field is enormous. You know better than I do that large corporations and companies never skimp on these new devices!"

After Xing Baohua finished speaking, he looked at Rudin, whose eyes were darting around in thought.

After a moment, Reading added, "Any other examples?"

"Yes! Wireless data transfer? Wireless data copying, etc. For example, you can use wireless to transfer data between your office computer and handheld devices."

"Wait? What handheld device are you talking about?"

"Uh!" Xing Baohua thought to himself, "I've said the wrong thing."

Do you know what a mobile computer device is?

“I know!” Redding nodded and said.

"Do you know about mobile phone data transmission?" Xing Baohua asked again.

This left Reading a bit bewildered. No one knew the current state of mobile phones better than him; only Motorola and Nokia had them in the world, and Ericsson's phones were still in the lab.

But how can the phone's data be transmitted wirelessly? I'm really curious, but it also feels like Xing Baohua is bragging.

"I just received the two-way paging license for motorcycles, and the next step is to develop a two-way paging system. The device needs to store at least ten data entries, so to store more important information, we will need to use a computer to store the information."

Redding nodded, signaling Xing Baohua to continue.

"Take you, Redding, for example. If you have this paging device, you can place it next to your computer at the office and share the device via a wireless LAN. When a message comes in, you can see the paging information on your computer, reply to the other party with the keyboard, and even save extra information on your computer. Isn't that convenient?"

Xing Baohua painted a huge pie in the sky. As for data transfer between mobile phones and computers, that wouldn't happen until the mid-1990s. In other words, it would be about ten years before the technology achieved the effect Xing Baohua described.

Everyone loves a pie in the sky, so how can you swindle money without exaggerating it?

Reading pulled a notebook from his pocket and quickly jotted down some of the technical issues discussed that day. Did he need to verify the reliability of the information?

They talked a lot, and Xing Baohua expressed his hope to jointly develop cordless phones with Ericsson. If Ericsson wasn't interested, Xing Baohua would have to look for other companies.

It goes without saying that it points to Philips. Actually, Xing Baohua didn't mention Siemens, Toshiba, or other companies.

Rudin didn't say much, and after considering it, he sent a message to Xing Baohua.

We talked for over an hour, but didn't get anything out of it, so we said goodbye and agreed to talk again next time.

Xing Baohua and Rui Ding spoke in gibberish the whole time, and Su Ya could only understand a tiny bit. It seemed that the foreigner wanted to buy what Xing Baohua had.

"What does he want to buy from you?" Suya asked on the way back.

"A technology."

"Oh! How much are you selling it for? I heard something like five hundred?" Su Ya asked.

"Haha, it's not five hundred! Add ten thousand at the end, and the unit is US dollars."

"Are you crazy?" Su Ya looked at Xing Baohua in surprise. Her voice was loud and shrill.

If Xing Baohua hadn't held the steering wheel firmly, the car probably would have veered off course.

"Keep your voice down, my ears are about to burst. Since we haven't reached an agreement, don't tell anyone. Just pretend nothing happened," Xing Baohua instructed.

"You shouldn't have just said you didn't want to sell to him. Why did you have to spend an entire afternoon haggling with him? Five million! Only a fool would buy that! How much money is that?!" Su Ya exclaimed.

Haha! You're so cute.

“You’re the cute one! Aren’t you short of money? Earn what you can, there’s no need to go for an exorbitant price! Even if someone wanted to buy it, they might not be able to come up with that much money,” Su Ya lectured.
