1590. 1590 chapter electronic paper book (subscription)

After eating breakfast, Feng Yu took a break and went to Amazon.

After the company, Feng Yu went directly to the office of Bezos. Bezos saw Feng Yu and stood up immediately, while holding a thick file in his hand.

“Mr. Feng, you are finally here. Recently I have an idea, maybe we can make a product that changes people’s reading habits!” Bezos can’t wait to say.

Feng Yu eyebrow raised : “Products that change people’s reading habits? Are you talking about electronic paper books?”

Bezos’s smile froze, what, how is this possible? He hasn’t said it yet, how could Feng Yu guess it all at once? !

“Mr. Feng, you, how did you know?” Bezos looked shocked.

Feng Yu said that this seems to be a very new thing now, but in the past life, it was not a good thing at all?

The concept of a real electronic paper book, or e-reader concept, was put forward by Amazon. But the first one was made by Sony, Philips and E-INK. Feng Yu never thought of this, so there was no reminder.

Just now Bezos said that the product that changed people’s reading habits, Feng Yu was remembered, it should be the e-reader created by Amazon. And this world Philips did not choose to cooperate with Sony, so this product, Sony is just made by itself, after the market, the response is very poor.

“Because of this thing, someone in China has already proposed it. Maybe you don’t know, many stories in China are paid for on the Internet. It’s nothing unusual. And this product, Sony has already made it. , I haven’t sold much in Japan, and the user feedback is not very good.”

Feng Yu has no fuss, but the inner heart is very happy. The reason why Sony’s products were not good was because E-INK technology was not good enough, but nowadays, this technology is very good.

With this product, the birth of the tablet is even closer, and this product can stimulate the consumption of e-reading and make more money for him.

Of course, it is impossible to replace traditional paper reading with e-reading, at least for a short time. Many people still like to hold books to read, like the taste of paper, and will not be able to see because there is no electricity.

Hearing Feng Yu said, Bezos seems to have been hit hard. He thought he had come up with a brilliant idea, but he didn’t expect that the Chinese had already thought of it, and Sony had already launched one, he didn’t know.

“Mr. Feng, is it manufactured by Taihua Holding Group? Is it manufactured by Wind & Rain Electronics, or is it manufactured by the Lenovo Group? Can you license this technology to Amazon? We are the world’s largest online book distributor, or the network. This word can also be removed. If this product is branded with Amazon, it will definitely sell better!”

“This, still in development, has not yet been made. How, Amazon is going to do this? You seem to be very suitable when you say this.” Wind & Rain Electronics gave up half of the research because they are now attacking the tablet. They think that this electronic paper book will soon be replaced by a tablet.

Bezos is ecstatic: “So Mr. Feng agreed, let Amazon develop this product?”

“Agree, why don’t you agree. What you said makes sense. Amazon is the world’s largest book distributor. It’s great to sell this product from Amazon. But if you develop it, you should work with other companies.”

“Right, you have a copy plan in your hand, show me.”

Feng Yu reached out and Bezos quickly handed the document to Feng Yu, and also introduced the product he imagined.

There is now a technology called electronic paper and electronic ink, which was developed as a substitute for office paper.

So this product is still quite different from the tablet, but there are some things in common. Of course, you can’t understand it as an oversized MP3 because the technology used is different.

And Feng Yu looked at the design of this product, and also has a keyboard, similar to the keyboard of the BlackBerry phone, and has many function buttons.

This product, compared with the products that Feng Yu has seen in the past, there is still a big gap. The electronic paper books that Feng Yu saw in the past have no keyboard, just a few buttons.

Moreover, the memory of this electronic paper book is not large, and there are not many functions. According to Bezos, it is enough to be able to read electronic paper books. The supported reading formats are limited. Only TXT and PDF are available. The idea of ​​Bezos is development. An electronic document reading format that belongs to Amazon.

Feng Yu looked at some, and after asking Bezos some questions, he closed the copy.

“Bezos, the idea of ​​this electronic paper book can be, but your idea is too limited. Yes, your design is 64M memory, enough to store hundreds of TXT format electronic paper books, but this is too small. I know You have designed to support SD card expansion, but why not just make it bigger?”

“Also, there are too few supported reading formats. You want to do your own electronic document reading format. This is fine, but the first thing to do is to be compatible with other reading formats. For example, Microsoft format, Lenovo-Silver Mountain Corporation format, etc. Wait.”

“Light is TXT format, mobile phone can do it, super MP3 can also do it. You just enlarge the screen, strengthen the function, why should someone else buy your product?”

“Electronic paper books, not only can be seen with the eyes, but also can be heard with the ears. Like children, many people are clearly literate, but they do not like to read fairy tales books themselves, but like parents to tell them. So this electricity Paper books, why can’t you have a listening mode?”

“Since there is listening, there is a recording mode that allows parents to record some stories for their children. So this product has a headphone jack and can even be connected to a microphone.”

“It’s also very important. You said that this product is lighter than ordinary books, but you have designed so many buttons, it is completely redundant. Why not use touch screen technology directly? You are not equipped with a pen? Just a few A simple function button is enough. Just like the smart phone series of Wind & Rain, you can discard so many buttons, the screen can be bigger, the body can be smaller and become lighter.”

“You want this product to replace the book, then you have to have the cover of the normal book, so this can also display beautiful book cover pictures, or illustrations of the novel, so this product should be able to read pictures, multiple formats image.”

“In terms of reading time, this product is more energy efficient than MP3, but it is also necessary to consider reading time. It is best to keep flipping more than 10,000 pages in succession!”

“I have made so many requests for the time being, as long as they can be solved, then this product will certainly be popular in the market. If you want to do it, you can entrust a company such as Wind & Rain Electronics to develop and design for Amazon.”

“Really? That’s great, this product will definitely allow us to sell Amazon’s e-books to the next level!”
