These Chinese-funded bosses who operate traditional industries have already tasted obvious benefits from the application of a generation of Fangyuan computers. The most direct manifestation is that the spreadsheet software and database have increased their financial statement generation speed by an order of magnitude. It is impossible not to care about the changes in the numbers with his hard-earned family fortune.

And with the title of American billionaire in their arms, they have grown a lot older, and they have to admit on the surface that Tang Huan is already at the same level. Fortunately, this young man is as humble as ever Polite, but not annoying.

In addition, some subtle changes in social situations are also obvious. For example, celebrities no longer care about the rumors that he has been entangled with female stars, and they often smile secretly while smiling sweetly.

In this regard, Tang Huan was afraid to avoid it.

The reason why he likes to search for celebrities in the original time and space from his memory is because like a listed company that regularly discloses information, no matter whether it is praise or criticism, it is exposed to the public eye, and his temper can be inferred from those clues.

Taking women as an example, Deng Lijun, Lin Fengjiao, Lin Qingxia, and Zhao Yazhi are all gentle women with mature thoughts, but they each have different sides. Deng Lijun is persistent, Lin Fengjiao is persevering, √, w♂ww. Lin Qing Xia Wenyi and Zhao Yazhi's traditions can completely follow the general strategy, get along with each other with ease, and always take the initiative in their own hands.

It can be said that what Tang Huan needs is order. But none of these people has a fuel-efficient lamp. If you touch it, you will have trouble

...

Follow the historical trajectory. The border war between Iran and Iraq in the Middle East finally broke out on September 22. The direct relationship between this and Tang Huan is that he has obtained tens of millions of dollars in personal income in the oil futures market that can withstand any degree of review .

In fact, many smart people have succeeded in speculating. After all, since April, the border conflict between Iran and Iran has appeared, even on April 5. Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Aziz was injured by an Iranian. The various military actions of the two sides have long been an open secret. The amount and strategy of betting.

Putting down the newspaper, Tang Huan made a joke to himself, that brother can do it in a high-spirited manner, and only receive a symbolic salary of one dollar from the company under his name.

Seeing that all the public relations activities that Xiangjiang had to attend were completed, Tang Huan rushed to Singapore on September 23, the Mid-Autumn Festival, and had a reunion dinner with his aunt and Lin Fengjiao.

Then began to inspect the factory.

The second-generation Fangyuan computer adopts many new designs, such as memory sticks and memory slots.

Now other types of personal computers. The memory chips are directly soldered on the motherboard, and it is troublesome for users to upgrade. However, the second-generation Fangyuan computer can solve such problems through the combination of memory sticks and memory slots.

However, it also increased the production process requirements of the interface circuit, which can be said to affect the whole body. Tang Huan had to visit the site to understand the situation in person.

Of course, he is also actively considering licensing out the technical specifications in order to attract third-party suppliers, so as to transfer various unnecessary costs to the downstream, and at the same time create a larger industrial cluster and gather a group of interested parties. new allies.

...

When we arrived at Baodao, the workflow was the same, but the content of the inspection was the more important main board.

Unlike when he was in Singapore, the attention mainly came from the authorities. The influence of Tang Huan, an American billionaire in Taiwan, is reflected in the industry. All the IT bigwigs who had risen more than ten years later gathered here immediately. , in addition to expressing admiration, it is also to take orders for some second-generation Fangyuan computer peripheral components.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Tang Huan's factory has a headache, he may not be the one who is anxious at first.

While distributing candies to his followers, Tang Huan launched a large-volume memory procurement bidding activity in the second half of the year. Compared with the last time, the procurement amount this time doubled to 120 million U.S. dollars. The six major semiconductors swarmed in immediately.

In this regard, colleagues in Baodao could only watch helplessly, unable to intervene, and in a hurry, they began to join forces to ask the government for support for the development of various semiconductor industries, causing officials to feel uneasy.

Tang Huan ignored the stimulation of this big order to Treasure Island, and seriously received the Japanese bidders represented by the six major semiconductor manufacturers. Compared with the last time, these guys were obviously much more honest, and they did not worry about the offensive and defensive alliance. I only hope to get a share of tens of millions of dollars.

The Japanese are very good at quality and cost control. In their previous lives, when they competed with American Intel and other counterparts, they dared to directly and blatantly clamor for a 10% price discount forever.

Sharp, amd, Hitachi, and Fujitsu, the four companies that won the bid last time, performed the most actively, but after all, their production capacity is limited, and sharp and amd also have to undertake cpu and second-generation Fangyuan computer south bridge, north bridge, graphics card core, sound card core, etc. and other chip production tasks, so it is inevitable to choose from Toshiba, Panasonic, and Mitsubishi.

...

Tang Huan first asked these guys who came to snatch the food to understand the bidding rules, and intrigue with each other, and he turned to pay attention to Deng Lijun's situation after returning to Baodao.

Treasure Island, which was abandoned by the United States last year, can be described as gloomy, so Deng Lijun, who was accused of betrayal because of the fake passport incident, became a punching bag.

But sometimes the world is very good at making jokes. With the popularity of Deng Lijun's songs in the mainland, Baodao had to find a way to win her back to his camp.

The song Shanghai Beach caused a sensation in Hong Kong, and the song Drips of Dreams successfully tested the waters in Japan, especially in North America and Europe. The prestige of the company has risen in a straight line.

This strong change in the situation has made Baodao's attitude towards Deng Lijun's wooing more firm, after she got off the plane. It has been followed by the media all the time.

According to Tang Huan's idea. Deng Lijun went back to Baodao directly in her Silicon Valley No. 1. But she did not agree, and arranged the itinerary very low-key. She only accepted the interview of TV station at the airport. After that, all public affairs were handled by two blond foreign girl assistants, and a language barrier blocked most of them. Some unnecessary entertainment.

Deng Lijun's most recent public appearance was to attend a ceremony of donating 2 million Taiwan dollars to the education of girls in Taiwan.

This kind of aloofness, as well as the generosity of being keen on public welfare, made some unscrupulous operations have to stop. For example, various oaths of allegiance in the face of the public.

However, next month's concert will still have similar sessions. Tang Huan asked someone he trusts to pass along the message so that Deng Lijun doesn't have to worry too much. As long as you don't wrong yourself, you have 10% of Zheru's shares. At worst, go back to the United States and continue to be a rich lady.

After Tang Huan finished reading the major mainstream media's follow-up reports on Deng Lijun's strong return to the music scene, he casually threw the newspaper on the coffee table, and the corner of his mouth curled up. Showing a faint sarcasm smile.

At this time, the hotel front desk called to report. Gu Long visits.

Because Lin Fengjiao went to Singapore to raise a baby in order to avoid the media, Tang Huan simply stayed in the Grand Hotel. Anyway, he had no secrets in Baodao. Instead, he stayed in this top-level hotel with a strong official background. It felt very strange .

Soon, Gu Long and Wo Longsheng entered the guest room led by the waiter.

Da Tang, I was worried at first. After you become a billionaire in the United States, your status will be different, and you may not be able to look up to friends like us. Now it seems that I am worrying too much. Gu Long grinned grinningly. Said.

Identity is just a gimmick, but it's true that you're busy. If you didn't catch up with a time gap, you would really think that I am arrogant and don't recognize my old friend. Tang Huan smiled and fought with Gu Long and Wo Longsheng Greeted, and then told the waiter, Bring a few bottles and some snacks.

Gu Long was overjoyed when he heard the words, After all, they are friends, and they know my heart well.

Say something quickly, don't drink too much later, and forget it all over the place. Tang Huan joked.

Gu Long scratched his head and smiled, Jin Yong's Tian Long Ba Bu has been made into a video game. Why haven't there been any movements in my martial arts novels? When everyone discusses it, I feel a little embarrassed.

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts, and literary heroes are not exempt from vulgarity.

When Tang Huan heard about this, he couldn't help laughing, Whoever said that there is no movement, it is already under development, and the boys under me need a process of training and quality assurance. Naturally, the progress cannot be as you think. It's that simple, and the game of Dragon Babu came out first because Jin Yong and I reached an agreement early.

So that's what happened. Gu Long laughed happily.

After getting this satisfactory answer, Gu Long, who was addicted to alcohol, opened it and drank heavily. During the period, he mainly chatted about some trivial matters of the three religions and nine schools of Treasure Island, and finally left drunkenly.

Looking at the swaying backs of Gu Long and Wo Longsheng, Tang Huan shook his head, and then sighed again. Just now he talked about the 17th Golden Horse Awards, which will be unveiled in more than a month. , due to political reasons, she didn't even get a nomination, I hope she doesn't get too frustrated.

...

Needless to say, the work efficiency of the Japanese, the second round of contact soon began.

Tang Huan's only requirement is to reduce the purchase cost of memory under the premise of ensuring quality, and the characteristic of the semiconductor industry is that the larger the scale, the more advantageous it is.

As a result, Toshiba, which ranked top, defeated Panasonic and Mitsubishi, won the favor of Tang Huan, each took a share of 25 million US dollars in orders, and the rest was divided up by previous partners Sharp, amd, Hitachi, and Fujitsu Exhausted.

Limited to the production technology level of cpu, its maximum operating frequency was around 20mhz throughout the 1980s, and it would have to wait until the middle and late stages, so the simplest and rude way to improve the performance of personal computers is large-capacity memory.

The executives of many high-tech companies in the United States still habitually think that the price of memory is extremely expensive, and they don't realize that the Japanese semiconductor industry across the Pacific is sharpening their knives and preparing to launch an attack.

Tang Huan knew the details of it and used it to meet the large demand for memory in his products. And his two centralized purchases in Asia. It also sent a signal invisibly. The current trend of the semiconductor industry is very obvious, that is, memory is king, which has stimulated the Japanese to expand production capacity crazily.

It can be foreseen that the upcoming Japan-US semiconductor war will be even more tragic. Tang Huan is optimistic. Anyway, he only has investment in this field.

After the procurement was confirmed, all the losers, including Panasonic and Mitsubishi, were not in a hurry to go home, because almost all Japanese companies had another purpose. That is, I hope to obtain the authorization to produce Fangyuan computer compatible machines. That's why I tested Tang Huan's tone after finishing the business.

Japan's official purchase of 5,000 Fangyuan computers can be described as killing birds with one stone. It not only expresses a positive reconciliation gesture in the Japan-US commercial frictions caused by the trade deficit, but also meets the needs of the domestic education system for informatization. guide the direction of the industry.

As far as Tang Huan knows, many Japanese companies have already started to crack the Fangyuan computer and tried to imitate it, but so far, no one has jumped out first.

It is not due to the limitation of the patent threshold. Because the problem of infringement can be avoided by creating another proprietary hardware architecture, but it is precisely if this is done. It is difficult to achieve the goal of 100% compatibility in terms of software.

The Japanese Chinese cards on the Fangyuan computer platform, as well as the three key application software: spreadsheet, word processing software, and database ebase are powerful. Needless to say, in order to enhance efficiency and prevent piracy, part of the core code is also placed in the read-only memory. , The combination of software and hardware can be described as a loop, which makes many reverse engineering companies give up halfway.

Everyone wants a copycat because they are interested in the big cake of personal computers and want a piece of the pie, but if the products they develop are not as good as the original products, or they are close in all aspects but take too much time, then the gains outweigh the losses. up.

It's not that the Japanese are not smart enough, but that after all the weighing, they found that it is the most cost-effective way to get the authorization honestly, but they don't know what the boss of Fangyuan Computer thinks, and whether they are willing to share some benefits.

Tang Huan almost laughed out loud when he understood the meaning behind what these guys said. Is this going to help me promote a unified industry standard?

In fact, Tang Huan has already begun to consider authorizing the Acer company of Taiwan Island to produce a generation of Fangyuan computer compatible machines in order to further expand the market share of this hardware platform. I did not expect these Japanese companies to post it, but we can think about it.

Compared with hardware, the profit margin of software is undoubtedly greater. If the first-generation Fangyuan computer, which has been reduced to a low-end product, is authorized to a third party to produce compatible computers, although it will eat up the original hardware sales, it will get more software profits. .

Moreover, among these Japanese manufacturers, they have the ability to independently launch personal computers, but they currently lack the support of the three major commercial software.

In the original time and space, ibm eliminated other types of personal computers through open standards, leaving only the struggling Apple computer, and then made personal computer and computer synonymous, which can be described as extremely cruel.

As for being defeated by your own compatible machine, it's not that the open standard is wrong, but because the original personal computer department was greedily incorporated into its traditional management system by ibm, extending the idea of ​​selling mainframes to personal computers On the contrary, this is the foundation of self-destruction.

Tang Huan, who had known it for a long time, pondered for a moment, and gave a vague answer, It would be good to have more partners, but there are still some details that need to be considered.

Hearing this answer, the representatives of each company couldn't help but be overjoyed. Naturally, they didn't have the vision of Tang Huan to implement standards, but they just intuitively thought that it would be very difficult to share the benefits that were originally guaranteed to be profitable, but they did not expect that the other party would have such a clear Cooperation intention.

After everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they all said, We really need to consider the details. Mr. Tang might as well go to Japan and discuss with each other while visiting the field.

Okay, my next stop is going to Japan to inspect the company. Tang Huan nodded in agreement, and he will handle a lot of business there next.

...

Epson's 9-pin printer mx80 was about to sell like crazy, but before its market value was squeezed out, Tang Huan urged the R\u0026D team to come up with a 16-pin printer, and a new generation of products would be upgraded in less than a year. The members are almost exhausted like dogs.

It’s not that Tang Huan is being unkind to these Japanese people, it’s just that although the mx80 can print out the output effect of 16x16 dot matrix, the 9 needles need to be divided into odd and even points, and they need to be typed back and forth twice, which drags down the speed of printing a document. really affect efficiency.

Well now, a 16-pin printer has been produced, and the efficiency has been increased by half in theory.

Seeing the satisfaction on Tang Huan's face, Hideaki Yaskawa couldn't help but feel a little worried, Don't rush to upgrade the printer from 9 pins to 16 pins, the current market share of mx80 in Japan has almost reached 60%, the prospect is unlimited, and it will be replaced so soon , what a pity.

Then use the price strategy to distinguish between mid-range and high-end, Tang Huan replied with a smile. The second-generation Fangyuan computer equipped with a 16-pin printer is simply invincible in the office.

However, when Tang Huan came to Taito's office to check and accept the handheld game console developed by imitating Game\u0026, his good mood disappeared. Shigeru Miyamoto, who returned to Japan, talked and laughed happily.

Damn, are the two of you here to avenge your revenge and poach someone?
