"What's the cheapest one?"
"The cheapest one is actually a black and white TV, but some of the internal components have been replaced. It's 23 inches and costs around 1,500 yuan."
Liu Cheng explained the differences between the three products. All three have one thing in common: stability. These components can be produced domestically and are resistant to high temperatures. The older fuses are more stable than the newer ones.
The downsides are that it's still a spherical screen, which doesn't look very high-end, the picture quality is blurry, and your eyes will get tired after watching it for a long time. Also, the overall color tone is warm, and some colors will appear noticeably bright when watching TV series!
"Let's go take a look at the prototype!" Lu Feng said, standing up.
The group went to another room, where there were seven or eight television sets. Lu Feng immediately rejected the 23-inch one, as the picture was so blurry that faces were barely visible. This product was clearly a rip-off by Liu Cheng.
The 29-inch display is the clearest. The difference between the two is the more advanced picture tube and electron gun. Currently, domestic TVs priced between four and five thousand yuan on the market are basically of this size and resolution. Some of them use foreign technology and are even better.
All I can say is that Liucheng's products are at the most common level among domestic products—neither low nor high.
Now he can only choose one of these two products. If he chooses the 29-inch model, Lu Feng knows that he cannot lower the price. He can not make money, but he cannot lose money. Otherwise, his competitors will take turns attacking and drain his cash flow.
"This is all the product design we can do. Some of the designs I suggested before don't work. You mentioned wanting something more elegant and sophisticated, and this design incorporates the best-selling elements on the market. I've made some modifications. As for the circuitry, picture tube, screen, etc..."
"I know, it's not your fault. Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice." Lu Feng picked up the blueprints in front of him and sighed.
We need to find ways to reduce transportation costs and employee costs, but we can't lower the wages of ordinary employees. Otherwise, with high requirements and strict management, these people will leave.
After much deliberation, Lu Feng realized that he could only target the management team. He needed to push for management to hold shares as soon as possible and motivate them with year-end dividends. At the same time, he also had to work with the suppliers.
"Get out the blueprints for this 27-inch model. We'll do a cost calculation later. Optimize this 29-inch model further so it can be marketed as a high-end product. Also, if the boot-up is slow, add a boot-up display with a double happiness symbol as a transitional feature!" Lu Feng instructed.
Liu Cheng nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought. This was a good idea; what was originally a flaw had been turned into a strength.
"Also, these two speakers are too high-spec. Remove one of them. Don't try to imitate the dual-channel or stereo sound of those high-end TVs. Make the outer plastic casing a little bigger, or it will look bulky. If you can't get the weight up, add some counterweights to make it more substantial!" Lu Feng said.
The people present all looked at Liu Cheng. They had been doing research and development for so many years and had never heard of such a wild approach. Even amateur scientists who tinkered with assembling things themselves didn't do it like this.
"Okay!" Liu Cheng nodded in agreement.
"I'd like to see something different in the exterior design, starting with some details, like where the brand name is placed?"
Lu Feng disassembled the entire television set, examining it bit by bit, considering its appearance, weight, and configuration. While the R&D staff had their own ideas, Lu Feng focused more on market considerations.
This product meeting took three days to plan. After three days, he paid Duoduo's tuition, said goodbye to Jiang Xiaoyan, and boarded a plane with a box of blueprints.
Before the plane took off, Lu Feng received a message from Zhang Fengxia on his pager, saying that the 50 million from Fulong Fund had all been received.
"Sir, the plane is about to take off. Please fasten your seatbelt," the flight attendant said with a sweet smile.
"Okay!" Lu Feng tucked the pager into his waistband, fastened his seatbelt, took a deep breath, and sank into his seat. He knew that when the plane landed, he would be facing the entire martial arts world!
