So don't underestimate a small media player; there's a lot of groundwork involved.
These preparatory steps require a combination of hardware and software. Security measures must also be in place.
If online payments are stolen, a news outlet will be in a very passive position.
People may be skeptical of online payments.
In her previous life, Xing Baohua had traveled to many countries. In an era where WeChat and Alipay payments were ubiquitous, even though the United States continued to live a life where cash was used for most payments and wireless payments were used for the rest of the year.
Many people also believe that online payments are not secure.
The earliest online payment system was developed in the United States, and its usage rate is also low there.
Because their hackers are dishonest.
They know best whether their own network is safe or not, as it's riddled with vulnerabilities.
And you know what? If it weren't for these hackers teaching us, training us, and constantly reminding us, we wouldn't have been able to create a group that surpasses its predecessors.
In fact, if Xing Baohua wants to develop online payment, it's normal for him to be attacked. In addition to hiring cybersecurity personnel, he also needs to take out insurance.
What's the most developed thing about the United States? Insurance is one of them; there's nothing they wouldn't dare to insure.
The insurance industry in the United States plays the game of probability with unparalleled skill. They even offer insurance for rockets that deliver satellites.
Basketball players can buy hand insurance, and soccer players can buy leg insurance.
Therefore, using insurance provides customers with a sense of reassurance.
Lost money while making an online payment? No problem, insurance companies can compensate you.
This is reassuring.
Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done to reach this point.
At the very least, you need internet access!
For the internet to develop rapidly, it needs to be quietly promoted behind the scenes.
I glanced at the package and saw several software programs and software solutions for overall internet promotion.
This is a super document that was carefully prepared in advance for the meeting with Gates.
Selling the patent to Gates might give them a significant advantage, allowing them to connect to the internet and interact with others simply by following the Microsoft system!
In Xing Baohua's mind, all the preparations he made, being a behind-the-scenes hero, wasn't bad. At least it paved the way for his career to take a big step forward, and he could also make some money.
The next day, after waking up, Xing Baohua toured the entire Silicon Valley.
If you like any electronic product, buy it.
We also buy any usable components. Most of them are embedded chips, and some system software.
Embedded chips are what we commonly refer to as standalone devices.
It has a wide range of uses and is often seen in small and micro devices.
Xing Baohua primarily uses domestically produced devices in China, and even modifies them himself using a reader/writer.
Now that the Americans have improved their technology, we can take some back to study.
When Xing Baohua saw a Wang An Computer store, he went inside.
These days, there aren't many companies that still use computers with such an ugly appearance.
Wang An computers still retain their 1970s appearance, which is quite impressive considering they've survived this long.
Just by looking at the appearance, Xing Baohua knew that the computers he designed were superior to these.
But Wang Laboratories has survived to this day for a reason. They excelled in word processing systems, far surpassing WPS.
Therefore, Wang Laboratories still holds a place in the office computing market.
When they developed their computer, they wanted to compete with IBM.
It's a pity that Mr. Wang An has passed away, and Wang An Computer is now just Barbie Q.
It seems they filed for bankruptcy in the early 1990s.
There were only a dozen or so display models in the store, and Xing Baohua didn't find them very interesting. He went outside to find a public phone, called Huang Xingyao, and told him that Xing Baohua hoped to meet with Mr. Wang An next week.
Wang An is currently developing rapidly, with money and power. I wonder if they would sell their patents if I wanted to buy them.
Wang An's team has created many patents and is also a leading figure among Chinese Americans in the field of electronics.
In the 1980s and 90s, we didn't have any domestically produced printers. Was it because we couldn't make them?
They're underestimating the wisdom of our people. Only a few can actually manufacture it, and the cost is even higher than importing it.
Why is the production cost so high? It's something that comes out of a laboratory, so how could the cost not be high?
We lack a lot in the technology of precision electronics and CNC chips used in printers. Another issue is the barriers of patents that increase the price of parts, making it more expensive for you to assemble than to buy the finished product.
That's true. It costs us a thousand yuan to manufacture a printer.
A nice, well-made product like theirs only costs two or three hundred yuan. How can you compete with them?
Lower the price of equipment, raise the price of parts, and make money from consumables.
How can we compete with them? Besides, we finally developed a technology, only to find out that the US and Japan had already applied for it five years ago.
Despite the relatively low level of printer technology, developing it in China still presents numerous challenges.
There are two main printer languages: one is commonly known as PCL, and the other is more sophisticatedly known as PS.
PCL was developed by HP, and the other one is by Adobe.
In software development, we are just getting started and haven't yet reached a significant scale.
This is the biggest weakness.
The hardware and software are all in other people's hands, so it's very difficult for you to buy the technology even if you want to.
Just from consumables alone, you can make a steady stream of profits.
Xing Baohua was interested in three of Wang An's patents: a high-density dot matrix printer, a document scanner positioning device, and a communication mid-terminal management system.
I actually wanted a patent for a spiral printhead, but then I thought better of it. It'll only be usable for a few years at most before it becomes obsolete.
If you were to buy it now, the price would be too high, and it probably wouldn't even be enough to break even.
