Chapter 517 feels like a trap!



To my surprise, when I tried to copy the floppy disk, the copying function failed.

The precautions are very strict; they must have gone to great lengths to prevent this!

Sony only provided two floppy disks, and any damage caused by human error would be considered a breach of contract.

Xing Baohua told Chen Shuoyue to put it aside for now and first get the programs for the engraving and etching machines out, and encrypt and organize them.

Sony's dongle is difficult to obtain, so let's put it aside for now and think of a solution.

Does data transfer not work without copying?

That's impossible. All the data can be exported; it's just a matter of one being brief and the other complex.

So Xing Baohua needed to prepare some things, and use a disassembly method to remove the program from the floppy disk and delete the code that prevented copying.

This way, the whole thing can be moved.

We often see things like not being able to copy, such as not being able to copy books on Qidian, and many bank pages also not allowing copying or screenshotting.

It's actually locked by the software.

After unpacking the software, you can use it by deleting that section of code.

Digital cameras and camcorders are still under development. The only challenge is miniaturization. We can directly use the original technology from DaMi, which saves a lot of time. However, the miniaturized devices are only about one size smaller than the original ones.

The weight, including the battery, is over two pounds.

Besides improving the performance of the light sensor, the storage medium is also crucial.

Xing Baohua's idea was to use Samsung's solid-state drive directly, but the lab preferred to use IBM's micro hard drive, which has a large capacity and can store more photos.

Xing Baohua presented three versions of the research and development, including an economical version that focuses on being lightweight and affordable for families.

The second one is the elite type, which is slightly more expensive but more convenient to use.

The third type is for professionals, designed for those who use large hard drive storage.

The first one used a 3.5-inch floppy disk. After compression, one floppy disk could hold about a dozen photos, and it was easy to replace the floppy disk.

When going on a trip to relax, it's good to bring a few floppy disks. They're economical, but the only downside is the low resolution. There's no way to save money on that! Even with higher resolution, a floppy disk can't hold many photos anyway.

The second chapter discusses solid-state storage. With technological advancements, the capacity of solid-state storage has increased, reaching approximately 10MB/s when multiple units are connected in parallel.

The downsides are low resolution and high power consumption. Storage and other hardware cannot be replaced. This thing is a rip-off for elites; it looks great and is expensive, but it's impractical.

The last one is a professional camera with a mechanical hard drive. It has high pixel count, but also high requirements for the equipment it connects to, meaning it needs a high-spec computer.

One photo is as big as several floppy disks. On a computer like the 286, it would take half a day to open just one photo.

Therefore, a computer with a built-in graphics card is required to use it.

It's a disguised way of getting professional photographers to sell rice and computers. It's a mutually beneficial arrangement, which is indeed quite good.

With the plan finalized and the goal set, the next step is to produce a sample as soon as possible.

Subsequently, Xing Baohua gained a deeper understanding of Nikon, discovering that the company's true expertise lay in optical manufacturing equipment.

They're playing the upstream supply chain game.

It's not just about producing cameras and lenses, as we might imagine. This is just one of their many industries.

More importantly, it involves optical precision technology and the equipment used to produce these technologies.

Nikon excels in biological and medical microscopes, as well as industrial measuring instruments, and so on.

Their products are also used in aviation and shipping.

They also develop important components for X-ray and CT systems; the core technology is in their hands.

To be honest, Xing Baohua thought these things were great, but he didn't understand them and really wanted to take them home.

Unfortunately, Nikon used a controlling stake to separate the company. This can be considered a form of indirect protection.

Xing Baohua wanted to intervene, but he found that his power was only suitable for cutting off funding to the holding companies below him.

Even with the power to appoint personnel, he can only propose and pass a board resolution.

There's a pharmaceutical factory in central Shandong; it would be great if we could connect them for a collaboration.

Forty percent of the world's ibuprofen is produced by Luzhong Pharmaceutical Factory. They've always kept a low profile; if it hadn't been discovered, who would have known they produced so much?

Of course, it's not just ibuprofen; there are other drugs that also occupy a high market share.

Forget it, let's not complicate things for now. Let's get the technology I want first.

With others doing the work, Xing Baohua was idle.

Actually, he wasn't idle; in his office, Xing Baohua was using his computer to make small tools.

He needs to prepare several tools to disassemble the dongle.

Once this first lock is removed, the rest will be much easier; otherwise, the entire plan will be blocked by the dongle.

I'm busy right now.

When Mitsui Fuji came again, Xing Baohua initially didn't want to see him, as he was busy at the time.

After thinking about it, he decided to meet with the other person and asked them to wait for him.

This wait lasted for two hours.

Leaving it to air out is something we often do here too, similar to the practice of giving someone a hard time.

It was already lunchtime, but Mitsui Fuji didn't dare to move.

Finally, Xing Baohua had someone call him in, and then Xing Baohua put the notebook away.

"What do you want?"

"Last time you asked our headquarters to help you acquire a game company, it's making some progress. The other party has agreed to the acquisition, but the price is a bit high."

"Which company?" Xing Baohua asked with a hint of joy in his eyes.

Konami!

Upon hearing about the company, Xing Baohua blinked as if trying to recall information about it; she hadn't heard of it before!

He said casually, "I thought it was Nintendo? Didn't you contact Nintendo?"
