To meet order deadlines, can quality be guaranteed? If widespread quality issues arise, the only options are either a complete recall or replacement of all units. Either way, it's a loss.
Therefore, in order to ensure quality, Xing Baohua will temporarily refrain from attending the Canton Fair and will focus on delivering goods in both quantity and quality.
With the precision-machined parts from the Japanese, Xing Baohua's product quality improved significantly. Although it was the same model, the cost increased slightly, but the price remained the same.
Xing Baohua does not intend to export this batch of goods with finishing processes; he plans to sell them entirely through domestic channels.
Then they began planning to get the company in America to reduce its orders.
This continues until there are no more orders.
The Japanese probably never imagined that a processing plant worth tens of millions of US dollars could just disappear like that.
Filing for bankruptcy will be much easier then.
Xing Baohua ignored the complaints from the construction companies and instead devoted himself to developing a repeater.
I've always wanted to get on this project, but I'm busy, and all the workshops are occupied by other products. Even if I manage to develop it, there won't be a production workshop.
The second large-scale integrated workshop, also a steel structure, has already started construction. Previously, there was a steel shortage, but now, to accelerate the construction of the electronics factory, the supply is open.
It should be completed in three months. From research and development to testing, that timeframe is generally sufficient.
The only challenge now is the generated files after recording. Audio files need to have a specific format. Common formats include mp3, mp2, mp1, mav, wma, ra, etc.
mp1234 is also one of the most common audio formats.
It is abbreviated as MPEG. It was only in the late 1980s that the Standards Organization and the International Electrotechnical Commission created an international standard audio format.
This standard was only issued and implemented in the early 1990s.
These early audio compressions resulted in very small file sizes, which better suited Xing Baohua's recording format.
Xing Baohua can control the audio recording speed to around 80-90kbps for ten seconds. This means he uses two 64kbps memory chips to achieve 128kbps. Theoretically, this allows him to record 15 seconds of spoken audio.
That's enough for practicing vocabulary. You can even practice short sentences.
A bootloader with 32KB of RAM. Power management chip and main control chip. All these electronic components are domestically produced and very inexpensive.
After drawing the diagram, Xing Baohua roughly calculated the cost of the electrical components on the circuit board, which was over 50.
Including the mechanical parts of the tape recorder, which cost around 30 yuan, the cost price fluctuates between 80 and 100 yuan.
If it were made, would it be priced at 150-180?
They also sell textbooks and cassette tapes.
They have their own publishing house and their own tape factory. With so much large equipment, any one of them is enough.
Find two or three teachers from foreign language institutes to record English courses for junior and senior high school students.
This combination makes it easier to sell.
Should we try to reduce costs? We'll have to postpone that question for now.
A qualified businessman needs to know which money to make and which money to make less of.
Research and development days are tedious.
Fortunately, during the research and development process, I came up with many little gadgets, which I jotted down and will work on when I have time.
It only took a little over a week to get the motherboard sorted out; now it's up to the tape recorder technical team.
It borrowed the cheapest mechanism from a Walkman and used it, which made the design very fast.
With the motherboard and speaker battery compartment included, it's slightly thicker and larger.
The reason why modern integrated circuit boards have such large electronic components is that using more precise circuit boards increases the cost, making them unaffordable for the average household.
You get what you pay for. Even if it were made to the size of a large tape recorder, I bet there would still be a lot of people scrambling for it.
The testing issues have been handed over to the technical team. As for the textbook recording, a suitable person has already been found; they can simply record using the textbook. The listening comprehension section, the dialogues in the text, and so on—Xing Baohua doesn't need to worry about any of that.
As Xing Baohua was leaving the factory gate on her way home from get off work, the driver slammed on the brakes, causing Xing Baohua to lurch from the back seat.
Before the driver could even roll down the window, he opened the door, stuck his head out, and shouted, "What's wrong with you? Are you looking to die?! Why don't you find a rope and hang yourself?"
Xing Baohua slowly rolled down the window and looked at the person who was almost hit. He made eye contact with the person who was hit, and the person shouted loudly at Xing Baohua: "Director Xing, Director Xing."
Okay, it's someone I know.
This is the only factory director, Zhao Shanhai, who was completely ruined by Xing Baohua.
What puzzled Xing Baohua was why the other person was wearing patched clothes. Was he here to plead poverty? He couldn't find him anywhere!
Xing Baohua didn't get out of the car. He waited until the other person came over before saying, "Director Zhao, it's not good to loiter around the factory gate. You have to be careful with all the cars coming and going!"
“I came here specifically to see you, but my request to see you was rejected. I couldn’t wait for you at the factory gate, please forgive me!” Zhao Shanhai said.
“In ancient times, there were people who would stop a sedan chair to plead their grievances, but those were all officials. Who am I? You're stopping my sedan chair? Hey! Director Zhao, we're on the same level! It's just that my factory is a little bigger than yours.”
These words were somewhat sarcastic towards Zhao Shanhai, but the other party could only tolerate them.
Even if you're dissatisfied, you can't show it. The factory is only a little big? Is that a little big? It's equivalent to over a hundred factories.
Now, Zhao Shanhai's factory only has two offices left.
The Machinery Bureau had previously allocated funds to help him build a factory.
The factory was built, but the products it produced became commonplace. Coupled with debts from relatives and friends demanding payment, Zhao Shanhai used his meager working capital to pay off his debts.
