Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Peng Yifei left to find a dictionary of simplified Chinese characters, which seemed to be a big talent. However, there is also the meaning of Bao Zixuan to test him. After all, as a driver and bodyguard, if there is a little trick, then the boss is the unlucky one.

Now Bao Zixuan's task is to write the traditional Wubi software first. These days, he basically stays in the office and sits in front of the computer at night, and he entered the life of a code farmer once.

When the traditional Chinese characters were about to be written, Peng Yifei came back and brought back all the dictionaries that Bao Zixuan requested. A total of 32 copies were brought back. From the first edition of the simplified Chinese dictionary to the latest edition in 1978, there were a total of 16 versions, large and small. Peng Yifei brought back two copies of each edition.

Seeing these Bao Zixuan smiling, he still didn't explain it clearly! But this is also very good. It is very rare that the subordinates can unconditionally carry out the tasks they have given them, and can complete the tasks with quality and quantity.

It can't be said that it is a reference, and I don't want people to doubt it. This secret is to be carried into the coffin.

This time, not only Peng Yifei came back, but Yokoi Junpei also came along. But also brought his latest product gameboy handheld game console.

Yokoi has been under a lot of pressure this year. Although the game company started by the Black Cloud Group is still one of the most profitable subsidiaries of the entire group. However, none of this has anything to do with him Yokoi Kyubei. He received the highest salary in the whole group within a year of coming to the company, but he did not bring a penny of income to the company except spending money. Seeing that Gujojiro, his subordinate in the past, was already the director of the production center at the same level as himself, he was very anxious.

When Bao Zixuan invited him to join, he promised that he could return to RB twice a month. But in order to speed up the development of gameboy, he only went back once in a year, or to recruit hardware engineers to return to RB. It can be seen that his work madness and serious attitude, the entire RB national work attitude before the Plaza Accord is very worthy of recognition.

Yokoi Junpei said to Bao Zixuan: "Your Excellency President is in accordance with your requirements; all technical indicators can meet the listing conditions. We have done a lot of tests, and now there is no problem running Xiangjiang Cube and Snake on the gameboy game console. ."

After all, Black Cloud Games has been established for too short a time, and it does not have its own game inventory. Moreover, the hardware performance of the first-generation gameboy game console is not very high, and it can only run some simple games.

After a year or so, the sales of Xiangjiang Cube basically stagnated. After all, there are more and more good games, and players will become more and more picky. Bao Zixuan asked Yokoi Junpei to transplant it to the gameboy handheld game console. Snake has long since been eliminated from the arcade market as a game from 1976.

Yokoi Junpei personally found the little ghost game company and bought the copyright. After the game is sold in arcades, it is difficult for small game companies to carry out secondary development, and they do not have the strength in this regard. At this time, Heiyun Game Company is willing to pay high prices to buy game copyrights, so why not do it!

Atari is not as generous as Heiyun. In fact, Atari had already negotiated with them before Heiyun Games approached the little ghost game company.

The Atari 2600, as the absolute game console overlord in this era, has its own strong side. They believe that as long as you can access the game on the Atari 2600 game console platform, it is your blessing, which causes them to be stingy towards game developers.

The one-time buyout price of Atari, a classic game like Snake, is only $2 million. They thought that if Atari didn't buy out Snake, the game would be useless. There is no other console platform that can compete with Atari.

At this time, Yokoi Yokoi of Heiyun Games approached them to buy the game copyright, and the little ghost game company, who was angry at Atari, agreed without saying anything after hearing the one-time buyout price of 5 million US dollars.

Black Cloud Games is much more sincere than Atari, and it is also very refreshing when paying.

He was very happy to hear that Yokoi Junpei actually snatched the Snake Bun Zixuan from Atari. Atari is one of the main competitors of Black Cloud Games. It is something to celebrate now that you can grab the copyright of Snake to weaken the opponent's strength, and the rise of Atari in the previous life relied on the game Space Invaders, and now part of the game copyright is in the hands of Heiyun, it is impossible to sell it For Atari, it's hard to rise.

Bao Zixuan said to Yokoi Junpei: "Yokoi-kun, please introduce the hardware configuration of this game console to everyone."

Yokoi Junpei: "Okay, Your Excellency President. Gameboy has a four-color black and white screen, four-bit CPU, and the capacity of the game cartridge does not exceed 16MB. It consists of 5 keys, including our patented cross key. Up, down, left and right adjustments are very convenient, and on arcades, the directional lever may be more suitable for the player experience. But on small game consoles our D-pad has an overwhelming advantage, so we did a lot of experimentation.”

Bao Zixuan knew that this game console only had half the performance of the original gameboy launched by Nintendo, but he was very satisfied. After all, the gameboy was released about 10 years earlier than in the previous life.

The technology alone has long been able to meet the research and development conditions. When the Intel 8086 chip appeared, the world's computer technology had already taken shape, and later technological upgrades and transformations were developed around this foundation. The basic framework has been determined and the rest is much simpler.

All that is lacking is creativity. In the era of arcade **** of games, who would have thought of making game consoles the size of the palm of your hand. That's why Nintendo didn't develop it until 10 years later.

Bao Zixuan: "How about the CPU and screen performance? How did you discuss with Gu Chengjun?"

Yokoi: "The CPU is a product 8 years ago, and the production line we purchased at Sony is fully capable of production. As for the LCD four-color black and white screen, we have purchased a full set of equipment and technology at RCA. As long as it enters the mass production stage, our own factory can meet the requirements. For the production of all parts, it can be said that we do not need to buy any parts outside. We only need to buy raw materials~www.readwn.com~ It is very gratifying to hear that Bao Zixuan is here. Many people do not understand why he buys so many. When it comes to technology, I think that he will enter other fields with a hammer and a stick, and he will be finished sooner or later. He once made many people and enterprises wait to see the joke of Heiyun Group. Today, he can finally relax, and his layout is slowly exerting its power.

If there is no strength to produce ordinary chips and LCD screens, what should the RB component suppliers collectively raise prices after the business is particularly hot? Black Cloud game consoles can only be purchased in the United States with the required parts. The price has risen by at least about 20%. Now that Heiyun can produce and use it by itself, there is no problem of rising component prices.

At this time, except for Panasonic and Sony, RB companies are in agreement with the outside world, and they are very united. Black clouds have to be guarded!

Bao Zixuan said: "What is the production cost now, and how many units can be produced per day if the production capacity is fully released."

If the average hardware development engineer may not know how much production capacity can be achieved, it is the average of Yokoi who has worked on the production line for more than 10 years. Before coming to the United States, I had three calculations with my old subordinates about the production cost of gameboy and the maximum capacity that can be released.

Bao Zixuan asked him this way because he knew Yokoi Junpei's character. If it were another engineer, he would not dare to ask him this way.

Yokoi: "Now the cost of each bare metal gameboy is 40 Hong Kong dollars, and a box of game cartridges costs 6 Hong Kong dollars. The main cost is that the chip and screen are more expensive. If you want to achieve mass production, you can produce 30,000 units per day in the first month. If The full release of production capacity can reach 50,000 units, and now our Heiyun Group has the largest number of small CNC machine tools in the world.”
