Reborn Tokyo Golden Age

Returning to Chiyoda from Chuo District, it was already getting late.

Unsurprisingly, the lights upstairs had been turned on, and he changed his shoes and took off his coat.

The nanny with the same name as Jun Dai took his briefcase, and then told him that dinner was ready.

Bai Chuanfeng nodded to indicate that he already knew, but he was not interested in eating for the time being.

The nanny's appearance reminded him of the girl he met in the tea room today and what happened in the other courtyard.

Go upstairs and open the bedroom door. Yuko Tanaka was kneeling on the wooden floor, helping him arrange his clothes.

"Hey, Bai Chuan-kun." She put down the clothes in her hand and got up to meet him.

In fact, these jobs can obviously be handed over to the nanny, but she never leaves the hands of others.

"Yuko, give me a pinch." Bai Chuanfeng took off the watch on his hand and threw it on the bed.

Yuko Tanaka was taken aback for a moment, then nodded happily. "Bai Chuan-kun, please lie down."

She tidied up the large and somewhat exaggerated double bed, then knelt and sat on it again. And patted his legs, indicating that everything was in place.

Bai Chuanfeng smiled, then lay down on his back, and put his head between her soft legs.

Just as his eyes were closed, his gentle hands were already kneading slowly on both sides of his temples.

A burst of soothing warmth slowly dissipated, and Bai Chuanfeng subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yuko's legs are as comfortable as ever."

"Hey" Yuko Tanaka didn't know whether he was really praising her comfortable legs, or another level of comfort, so she couldn't help but blushed.

"Never tire of playing."

"Hey, enough is enough, it's really rude."

Hearing her reproach, Bai Chuanfeng couldn't help laughing.

"It's the truth." After saying this, Bai Chuanfeng's hands began to be dishonest, and he carefully felt her softness in every detail.

After moving a little bit, Yuko Tanaka let him go without getting rid of his clutches.

She always felt that Bai Chuanfeng was a little abnormal today. Was it because he was too busy with work, or was he under too much pressure recently?

But no matter what kind it is, what Yuko Tanaka can do is to give him a warm harbor.

As a neon woman, she also has some traditional concepts in her heart. At this moment, serving Bai Chuanfeng well is what she wants to do most.

Bai Chuanfeng had indeed suffered a huge cognitive shock today. The exposure of the school tycoons and chaebols finally made him see the tip of the iceberg in this society.

However, this opened corner also gave him great pressure.

Where should Baichuan Electric go in the future, how should I deal with them, and how should everything in Baichuan exist in the long run in the future?

All this is really annoying.

Bai Chuanfeng turned over and buried his head in her soft space.

"Yuko, let me study your legs carefully. It seems that your toughness has increased a lot recently. Did you go to the gym quietly?"

The thick-skinned Bai Chuanfeng decided to put aside the annoying problems first and enjoy the beauty in front of him.

"Shirakawa-kun~" Yuko Tanaka called out a little helplessly.

This guy has become more and more domineering recently, and the bed has made her more and more difficult to resist.

Hmm~, but now it seems that the effect of maintaining the figure is very immediate, and I will continue to work hard in the future.

Ota Ward, Shirakawa Electric Engineering Center.

Bai Chuanfeng was leading Nakajima Heitaro and the others to surround a strange looking machine.

"Is the work stable? How effective is it?" He frowned and looked at the black box in front of him.

That's right, this is a real cube black box, stupid and rough.

It is also the prototype of Baichuan Electric's first CD player, and today it finally revealed its true colors.

"It's not bad to use at present, although there are disc jumps, it is barely acceptable.

The 16bit sampling rate brings unparalleled listening enjoyment.

The bit rate of 1411Kb restores the most essential effect of the sound to the maximum extent.

There is also the non-contact reading of the disk information by the laser head, which is really unbelievable. "

The more Yasuda talked, the more excited he was, the working performance of the CD prototype was completely beyond his imagination.

He was amazed by the absolute silence of the CD player, because there is no friction between the laser and the disk surface, so the signal-to-noise ratio is increased.

And this makes the disc work, there is no rustling sound when the tape machine and the vinyl machine are rotating, and the sound is clear and transparent.

For Yasuda and the others who were exposed to CD players for the first time, this was definitely the first time in history.

However, when Bai Chuanfeng listened to the music coming from the CD player, he occasionally frowned.

The bit rate of 1411Kb has indeed raised the sense of hearing by more than one level, and the bit rate of MP3 in later generations is only 320Kb.

So it can be imagined that the sound quality of CD is definitely the existence of MP3 in seconds.

Later, in the circle of HIFI enthusiasts, the 1411Kb bit rate is also the real dividing line that defines lossy and lossless.

As for some platforms advocating that as long as the bit rate of MP3 exceeds 320Kb, it is a declaration of lossless sound quality, which is completely a manifestation of bad money driving good money.

After the laser head of the current CD player reads the information, it is directly transmitted to the DAC decoding chip.

Because there is no middleman to make the difference, the sound quality is completely restored.

Yasuda and the others saw this kind of CD player for the first time, but Bai Chuanfeng did not.

Just for a while, he felt a slight disc jumping phenomenon in the CD player in front of him.

You may not feel it if you are not careful, but as a trendy product of the next generation, the first shot must be fired.

In terms of sound and experience, there must be no flaws audible to human ears.

"The vibration generated by the rotation of the disc will occasionally affect the reading of information by the optical head, so let's find a way to improve it as much as possible.

In addition," Bai Chuanfeng patted the prototype machine in front of him, and suddenly there was a "click", and the prototype machine under him went on strike.

This made Bai Chuanfeng's unspoken words stuck in his throat. After two seconds, the CD player slowly resumed work.

Yasuda looked at this scene in embarrassment, and other researchers in the studio also blushed.

Bai Chuanfeng shook his head, "There is still a lot of room for improvement, keep working hard.

Nakajima-san, can you tell us how Sony is going and how they solve this problem? "

To say that the real expert of CD is of course Heitaro Nakajima in front of him.

He is one of the real participants and creators of CD technology, and the combined team of Baichuan Electric may not be equal to him alone.

Nakajima Heitaro heard Shirakawa Kaede's greeting, and took a step forward without hesitation.

Now that he is free from Sony and has no identity restrictions, he dares to speak freely.

Thinking about sitting and drinking with Bai Chuanfeng a few months ago, the latter joked and asked him to give advice on the CD player development of Bai Chuan Electric.

At that time, he was still struggling with the issue of identity, but he did not expect to join the opponent's camp in a blink of an eye.

What was a joking agreement at the beginning turned out to be a prophecy.

Fate is wonderful.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Nakajima Heitaro touched the prototype in front of him, and instantly found the problem.

"Too light." He tapped the shell of the prototype, making a crisp sound.

"Huh?" An Tian seemed to understand what the other party meant if he realized something.

"The quickest and most effective way to solve the earthquake resistance problem is to increase the weight of the fuselage."

Heitaro Nakajima opened the door of the CD player and knocked on the case again.

The disc inside the CD player, which was visible to the naked eye, was shaking slightly, and everyone understood the reason this time.

Because of the plastic casing, the weight is lighter. Occasional collisions will cause the disc to vibrate.

When the CD player is working, the internal disc rotates at high speed. Any vibration will be amplified by the laser head and cause information reading failure.

"Sony's solution, in addition to optimizing the mechanism design, is to switch to an all-metal body.

The weight increases, and due to the existence of inertia, the vibration of the CD player will be greatly weakened, thereby reducing the occurrence of disc jumping. "

There are also some competition restrictions between Heitaro Nakajima and Sony, but they have been settled by Kaede Shirakawa.

He only participated in the development of CD technology, and he was not responsible for the development of the CD player. At that time, he had already become the president of Aihua.

Because of this, coupled with Bai Chuanfeng's appearance, Sony did not insist on this point.

Moreover, the CD camp also needs more players to join, and vinyl and tape are the enemies of CD.

Although Heitaro Nakajima did not participate in the development of Sony CD players, this information cannot be hidden from him.

Moreover, CD technology is closely related to CD players, and no one knows the working principle better than him.

"However, there is also an obvious disadvantage in doing so, that is, the cost will rise sharply."

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Bai Chuanfeng immediately grasped the point, "Based on Nakajima-san's estimate, what is the cost of Sony?"

"An all-metal fuselage weighing tens of kilograms, plus various materials and devices. It is conservatively estimated that the cost will exceed 100,000 yen, or even more."

"100,000 yen?" Bai Chuanfeng was surprised by Heitaro Nakajima's answer, "Then if you want to make a profit, the price should be at least 150,000 yen."

"That's right." Heitaro Nakajima nodded, "I heard some rumors that the price of Sony's first CD player is likely to be close to 170,000 yen."

"It's too expensive!" Bai Chuanfeng shook his head, "As a consumer electronics product, this price is too expensive."

Whether consumer electronic products can be widely accepted by the public, the price is the most direct impact.

The reason why Shirakawa Electric's Walkman has become one of the mainstream is because it is cheap enough that most people can afford it.

But 150,000 yen, this price basically dissuades a large number of people.

Perhaps only those audiophiles who pursue sound quality will be willing to spend.

However, if the CD player is only positioned as a niche high-end product, it is not in line with Bai Chuanfeng's original intention, nor is it in line with Bai Chuan Electric's strategy.

Bai Chuanfeng looked at the desktop CD player in front of him, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and had an idea in his mind.

"We don't make desktop CD players anymore!"

"Eh?!" Both Heitaro Nakajima and Yasuda were inexplicably surprised.

No more CD players? What do you mean, you can't give up all your current work halfway, right?

"Put the desktop CD player first, let's make a portable CD player first!"

Bai Chuanfeng suddenly remembered that later generations could carry a CD player with him like a walkman.

Lightweight, flexible, cheap and compact, this is what consumer electronics should be.

Satisfying these two characteristics will have the basis for being accepted by consumers.

"Portable CD player?!" Nakajima Heitaro and Yasuda looked at each other.

Portable CD players had never occurred to them, and the concept had never crossed their minds.

"That's right." Bai Chuanfeng nodded, reaffirming their guess.

He's even started to show them what a portable CD player should look like.
