Listening to the roar of the factory machines, watching the parts processed one by one, and then assembled, packed, and inspected in the assembly workshop finally become a commodity. Bao Zixuan was very emotional in his heart, this is the power of industry.

Most of the arcade production used to be external procurement of materials, now many steps have been changed to CNC machine production, looking at the production of products that workers work overtime every day, arcade machines can produce 1800 units a day, and their own production of parts has exceeded 50%, Walkman can produce 10800 units per day, although the workers of this era are not very smart, but the execution is particularly strong. And with the opening of the European market, the arcade machines are now not sold at all.

After taking Yokoi Junhei and Miyamoto hat to the CNC machine tool workshop for a turn, Miyamoto hat is a little better, after all, he is a software developer, and he doesn't understand what these machines mean, but Yokoi Junhei knows that there is a black cloud CNC workshop that constantly produces small machine tools, and he can release production capacity as soon as he develops a game console.

After the three of them sat down in Bao Zixuan's old office, a female employee poured three cups of tea for the three and left. I see that there are a lot more people in the company now than when I left, and it looks like a company.

Bao Zixuan: "Miyamoto-kun, how is the development of your game, when can you speculate on the market." ”

Miyamoto hasn't rested much these days, after all, this is the first game he organized and developed, and it is impossible to make a mistake, otherwise it will become a joke in the industry. Bao Zixuan allowed him to go back to RB twice a month, but now it's been 3 months, and he hasn't gone back once, and all his subordinates haven't gone back. But now that the boss has asked, he has to go back seriously, after all, he knows that this little boss doesn't like to watch the process very much, and pays more attention to the result.

Miyamoto hat: "Thank you for your concern, Donkey Kong can be designed in January next year, and the legend of Senna will not be completed until May." ”

Bao Zixuan: "You are doing a good job, you can proceed according to the schedule, we are going to participate in the Los Angeles Electronics Industry Show next year, Donkey Kong is one of our exhibited products, you have to prepare it with the staff." ”

looked at Yokoi Junhei and said, "Yokoi-kun, how is the design of the two game consoles." ”

Junhei Yokoi: "After receiving strong support from the U.S. branch, the R&D progress has accelerated a lot, but all of our technologies are starting from scratch, and now it will take 10~12 months for Gameboy to reach the technical indicators given to me by the president, and it will take about 16 months for the home game console to meet the requirements, which disappoints His Excellency the president." ”

Bao Zixuan: "It's already very good, after all, we don't have any technical reserves, and it all depends on Yokoi-kun's own ability." I'm already very satisfied, you see how many game consoles we can produce every day with these equipment, so my requirement for you is to keep improving, and we Heiyun is to make the best products. ”

Yokoi Junhei nodded thoughtfully, it was the first time he really understood the strength of these small CNC machine tools, he didn't expect that there was such a fast processing speed for small parts, and the size was accurate to 1 micron, which could reach the processing level of aero engine parts. How the boss produced these things, it seems that he will have to talk to Jiro Furujo more in the future.

"If we use these machines to produce Gameboy consoles at full capacity, we can produce more than 30,000 units a day, which is really enough. Yokoi said.

Bao Zixuan: "That's right, at present, we have all the patents for these machine tools, which are completely the company's independent intellectual property rights, you don't have to worry about others can imitate them, the most important thing is that our workshop is constantly assembling the machine tools we need every day, when Yokoi-kun your game console is developed, I guarantee that you will get what you want in that open space." ”

Martin Griff and Romansky saw that there was so much open space for the two of them to play freely, so after discussing with Bao Zixuan, they began to follow the planned design drawings. In addition, when designing the R&D building, it was necessary to listen to the opinions of Miyamoto and Yokoi Junpei, so that the two of them could design the R&D building according to their own preferences. That's why Miyamoto and Yokoi Junhei were called to come to the factory. In the afternoon, we will have a meeting to discuss the next development.

At 2:30 p.m. on December 10, 1977, in the conference room of Jiulong Heiyun Factory, Bao Zixuan sat on the main seat and looked at the company executives below, this time mainly for the company's follow-up construction meeting. In addition to Bao Zixuan, the meeting was attended by Zhao Tingting, Director Ma, Li Jun, Yokoi Junpei, Miyamoto Hat, Furujo Jiro, and his two classmates, Martin Griff and Romansky.

Seeing that Jiro Furujo also participated in the meeting, Junpei Yokoi also sighed, this young man he brought from RB is now an executive of Kuroyun Company, and he is a person who can talk to him on an equal footing. In fact, it's not Bao Zixuan who wants to use newcomers, because there is no one under him to use, but since John Chambers took the initiative to come to Black Cloud, he feels that he is qualified to go to other companies to dig some corners.

Bao Zixuan: "During this time, I have seen everyone's hard work in my heart, it is indeed very hard, but now we still have a long way to go, I hope everyone will work together to build a better black cloud." ”

"You're all familiar with each other, so I won't introduce you. We are meeting today on the issue of factory expansion. At this stage, our plant problems have been solved, but about the R&D department, the company headquarters, The workers' entertainment and leisure facilities have not been solved, and our land area looks very large, in fact, it is still too small, Mr. Zhao, you are responsible for negotiating with the two nearby villages, we can recruit more workers nearby, and even build all the nearby roads for them, but each village must sell us at least 500 acres of land, there is no cap, if the conditions allow me to build this place into the best factory in the world, if there is no space then we can only go to the New Territories to develop. And they told them that they had to give us the land by the sea, and that we were going to build our own wharf. ”

"As for the game development building, according to the requirements of Yokoi-kun and Miyamoto-kun, we will build a gym that can accommodate 500 people in the factory, an indoor basketball court with 5,000 seats, which can be used as an auditorium during events, a 200-meter running track and a football field in it, and all the leisure and entertainment facilities on the market must be built here. ”

"Tear down the old houses and build the Black Cloud Library. Not only do we have to make money for all the workers with us, but we also have to learn the knowledge that they may not have had at home before, but with us, we have to create conditions for them. ”

"And all the wires and sewer pipes are still all buried in the ground, I don't want to see a single line above ground, and all the office phone lines need to have enough space for interfaces. Bao Zixuan didn't dare to say at this time that he wanted to leave an interface for the network, so he really had nothing to do!"

Hearing this, no one reacted. How much does this cost! Zhao Tingting wanted to say something, but Bao Zixuan didn't let her say, but continued: "We can earn money, but will the workers work hard for us when they are in a bad mood!"

"I'm just going to make this a garden-style factory, and you're going to work towards that. ”

Everyone broke up like this, and the others basically didn't say anything, and Bao Zixuan was talking alone. He just wants this effect, maybe many executives don't understand, then implement it, and I don't have time to explain so much to them.

Early the next morning, Bao Zixuan made an appointment with the landlords of two nearby villages, and finally the people of Panjia Village knew that it was beneficial to follow Boss Bao, so they happily sold the 1,230 acres of land from the Heiyun Factory to the sea to the Heiyun Factory for 246 million Hong Kong dollars. They also relocated three families for this purpose. The payment will be made in one year. After seeing that there was no follow-up, the other village immediately became anxious, and finally took the initiative to reduce the price to 100,000 Hong Kong dollars per mu before Heiyun Company agreed to buy the land. 880 acres of land, 88 million Hong Kong dollars to be paid in 2 years. In this way, the company has 2,500 acres of land that can be used for development, and can also build its own small wharf. Bao Zixuan saw this, and knew that the expansion of the factory in the next 3 years was completely enough.
