Extraordinary Genius

By the end of October, Feng Yu planned to prepare for this year's New Year's Day awards evening, but suddenly received a call from Jiang Wanmeng. In the market, there were pirated VCDs.

There is no particularly difficult technology for CDs. If you can produce CDs, you can produce VCD discs with a little research. The filling of this VCD disc is actually not high, only about one yuan, one movie, two AB faces, plus outer packaging and transportation, the cost will not exceed three yuan.

Genuine VCD discs are based on the pricing of wind and rain cards, basically between ten yuan and thirty yuan. About ten yuan is the old movie, the old music video or something, the 30 yuan is mainly the new movie and the new song MV, and gradually declines with the passage of time.

Whether it's a 30-yuan or a 10-yuan CD, VCD companies earn almost the same, in different ways. Feng Yu originally thought that in this way, it would not leave too much market space for other competitors.

After all, whether it is the wind and rain card or the Aihua brand, the production of the CD can be sold at the VCD point of sale. If you buy a VCD, do you have to buy a few CDs?

However, Feng Yu defended the piracy of the VCD player, but did not prevent the piracy of the CD. A five-dollar CD, listening to a song or watching a movie, is no different from ten dollars.

Especially those small video halls, they originally used to play this kind of video tape to make money, a movie, a talent for five cents, naturally the lower the cost, the better.

Feng Yu let people go to these places to promote VCD, indeed to a certain extent, increased the sales of VCD, but also those pirates found business opportunities.

He went to the outside video store to see if the situation was as serious as Jiang Wanmeng said.

"The world is long, the passengers are in a hurry, the overdue and the tide are falling; the grace and resentment, the life and death, the whites, how many people can see through? The red dust is rolling..."

At the entrance of the audio-visual store, a big sound was deafening, playing Ye Qianwen’s "Slow and Go", a song that pushed Ye Qianwen's career to the peak.

Feng Yu saw a lot of people entering the audio-visual store, but when they came out, most people bought tapes, and some people took videotapes. Only a small number of people came out with CDs or VCDs. CD.

It seems that it will take several years for CDs to replace tapes and tapes.

"What do you want, go inside and pick yourself, can't find you can ask me, we have everything in the store, as long as you say, even if there is no time, I can help you find it." The owner saw Feng Yu come in, enthusiastic Said. Private audio-visual stores, service attitude is better than the state-owned.

"Where is the VCD disc?"

"The shelf in front, the song is here, and the other is movies and TV shows."

Want a VCD disc, that is to say that there is a VCD player at home, this disc is much more expensive than the tape, he earned a lot, especially the purchase price of this disc, now lower!

Feng Yu swept a circle on the shelf, some singers' concert videos, some songs, and Feng Yu didn't know which ones were from their company and which were pirated.

But when he saw a CD-ROM with a mixture of Mandarin and Cantonese, he knew that it might be pirated. Their company would not produce such a mashup. Especially when I saw MJ's concert CD, Feng Yu confirmed that this must be pirated.

MJ's contract is Sony's, how can Sony sell copyright to Feng Yu? If the box is printed with other companies, it is definitely not possible to print the wind and rain.

However, the pirated CDs at this time are not as crude as the previous generations, and even the packaging is exactly the same as the genuine ones. If a store enters piracy, it will not enter the original, because the profits of piracy are higher. Feng Yu suspects that most of the things in this video store are pirated.

Turning the other side, watching the movie CD, the mainland, Xiangjiang, Baodao, Europe and the United States, there are some past classic movies, each CD-ROM outsourcing, can not be seen is pirated.

Feng Yu knows that there must be a problem in this, is it necessary to get a laser anti-counterfeiting mark? However, it seems that this is also very good to imitate, after all, what people make is a laser-burned CD.

"Man, have you picked it up?" the owner came over and asked, sitting at the door of a woman, probably his wife.

"How do you sell these two dishes?"

"Eighteen one, two you give thirty-five."

Feng Yu deliberately made a dilemma: "Can't you be cheaper?"

"Oh, our purchase price is also very expensive, so, you really want to buy, two thirty-three, this is the cheapest price." The owner gave a big profit.

"Don't fool me, how do I hear that someone else's family is ten dollars?" Feng Yu wants to test the reserve price.

"Do they compare the quality with me? You see, I can all be genuine CDs here. The sound quality and picture effect are better than theirs. Forget it, make a repeat customer, two thirty, can't It’s cheaper.”

"Okay, thank you, I want these two."

Feng Yu returned home and put a CD into the VCD player. After the video was played, Feng Yu's brow wrinkled more and more tightly.

The clarity and sound quality are not bad at all, and the video inside the CD is Feng Yu, they did not buy the copyright. If it is Sony's own production, then there is nothing, because he is difficult to import, the amount will not be big, and it is also disguised to stimulate VCD sales.

This can be a pirated storm card, so that Feng Yu is quite helpless.

Feng Yu called and contacted Fu Guangzheng. The discussion of this matter, what should I do?

"Feng Laodi, don't you care about this? Our own CDs are also selling well. Only the number of CDs is much higher. VCD players can sell better. At that time, like ordinary TV sets, it will become a must. Prepared electrical appliances. Besides a lot of movies and music, we have no copyright, others want to see, what do we do?"

"Then we will condone?" Feng Yu asked. Last month, he let Hugo not allow pirated games, and the game console of Xiaobawang was officially discontinued.

"Their piracy will damage our interests. Do you know that pirated CDs are more expensive than those sold on our genuine CDs. And they are also branded with our brand name, which is absolutely bad for the brand image. Someone accused us of saying that we are fraudulent?"

Fu Guangzheng was shocked: "You mean, there are big companies supporting it, deliberately conniving?"

"I saw a lot of Sony's movies and music videos. I feel that it is not simple." Feng Yu suspected that this was the pit that Sony had dug for him. When Sony sue him for infringement, all his CDs will be completely removed from the shelves, and will be checked, which will inevitably make the VCD just a little bit of improvement, and once again back!

Feng Yu also started to call, find all the relationships, find out who is doing piracy, but also in the name of the storm card!
