Bao Zixuan has refused all invitations since he attended the banquet in the Dong Mansion, and even HSBC Shen Bi did not give face to the invitation, he wanted to cool the other party for a while. These days, I've been discussing college planning and design with my roommates, Martin Griff and Romansky. Many people thought that Bao Zixuan had become cautious after being injured, and he didn't force it, after all, he had no friendship with the richest man in Xiangjiang.

At the same time, we have not forgotten the two important projects that the company is currently working on, home game consoles and digital cameras. As for game development, Miyamoto can now completely handle it himself, and the research and development of home appliances still needs to be done step by step. The technical reserves are too weak. The lithography machine cannot be formed in a little time, otherwise Huaxia would not have been controlled in the field of lithography machine in the previous life.

After more than a year of hard work, Junhei Yokoi has finally finalized the home game console, and now it can reach the mass production level. Looking at the game console in front of him, Bao Zixuan knew that he had developed a home game console before Nintendo. However, I heard that Sony and Nintendo's game consoles are also about to be developed, which is a stronger opponent than Atari.

Bao Zixuan said to the researchers: "Yokoi-kun, it's up to you to introduce the performance of this game console." ”

Yokoi: "Yes, Your Excellency, President. According to your requirements, we named this game console FC Red & White Machine. ”

That's right, Bao Zixuan occupies the name of Nintendo's classic game console this time. There was no way, he was not very satisfied with the names of the design department, and he couldn't think of any particularly brilliant names. Since the name of the game console in the previous life can be successful, it is not impossible to borrow it.

Not only is the name borrowed, but even the machine configuration is copied from Nintendo's settings. This is no pressure for the current black cloud, and the technical reserves are sufficient.

Yokoi continued: "The performance of our console is much better than that of the Atari 2600, which is four times the performance of the current Atari 2600. ”

"Its CPU: Ricoh 6502 chip, frequency: 1.8MHz"

"Screen: 52 colors in total, up to 13 colors can be displayed on the same screen"

"Sound source: mono, 2 rectangular waves, 1 triangle wave, 1 murmur, 1 PCM synthesized source"

"Red & White Machine-FC Features FC uses an 8-bit CPU made of a black cloud chip, with 2KB of memory and video memory. An image controller (PPU) that can display 64 colors can display 2 layers of scrolls and 5 pages, of which 2 background pages each occupy 1KB of video memory, and due to the limitation of video memory, a maximum of 16 colors can be displayed. A programmable sound generator (PSG) provides 4 analog channels and 1 PCM digital channel, which provides continuous background sound. ”

"There is a reset switch, 1 power switch, 1 game card slot, 2 2-button controllers (game controllers) with D-pads, and "Select" and "Start" buttons on the main controller. There are power interfaces, RF output interfaces, video image output interfaces, and audio output interfaces on the back of the host. There is also an expansion port on the front for connecting external devices for the ray gun. ”

"FC uses an image controller (PPU) developed by Ricoh with 2KB of video memory and a color palette that can display 48 colors and 5 grayscales. A screen can display 64 sprites in 8x8 or 8x16 pixels, with a maximum of 8 characters in a scanline, which can exceed this limit, but will cause the character to flicker. ”

"Architecturally, the FC has a pseudo-sound processor, and in the actual hardware, this processor is integrated into the 2A03 NMOS processor. The pAPU has two built-in almost identical rectangular wave channels, one triangular wave channel, one noise channel, and one audio sample playback channel (DCM, incremental modulation mode). Three analog channels are used to play musical sounds, one is a noise channel to express special sound effects (explosions, gunshots, etc.), and the audio sample playback channel is used to express continuous background sounds. ”

"There is a reset switch, 1 power switch, 1 game card slot, 2 2-button controllers (game controllers) with D-pads, and "Select" and "Start" buttons on the main controller. There are power interfaces, RF output interfaces, video image output interfaces, and audio output interfaces on the back of the host. There is also an expansion port on the front for connecting external devices such as ray guns, additional repeater handles, and more. ”

Listening to Yokoi's introduction, Bao Zixuan knew that this game console had reached the level of Nintendo's 1986. This is the result of a large number of software and hardware engineers at Black Cloud Computer, which makes it surpass this era. ”

Bao Zixuan continued: "What about the game! ”

Yokoi Junhei said with a smile: "Then I want Miyamoto-kun to introduce to His Excellency the president." ”

Shigeru Miyamoto walked up to the front and said, "Your Excellency, President, colleagues. We have now completed game placements such as Xiangjiang Cube, Pac-Man, Snake, The Legend of Senna, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, etc. The above games run on FC red and white machines without any problems at all. In addition, we are actively contacting major game development companies so that users can play as many games as possible on our FC red and white machines. It's just that we have a very strict control over the quality of the game, and the general game can't meet our requirements, and the progress is not very fast. ”

Bao Zixuan was a lot relieved when he heard this, but the space invaders spent a lot of money to get Taidong Co., Ltd. to agree to enter the FC red and white game console, and their first choice was the Atari 2600.

Strict review of the game is his strategy. is worried that if pornographic and violent games are added to the black cloud game platform, then the overall image of the group will be greatly damaged.

Bao Zixuan: "You have been working hard recently, but then I have to ask Guchengjun how about the current production capacity." ”

Jiro Castle: "Your Excellency President, please rest assured that since we received the prototype, our manufacturing center has prefabricated the parts as soon as possible, and if we are at full power, we can produce 30,000 FC red and white machines per day. It will definitely not hold the game company back, please rest assured. ”

Now the production capacity of Heiyun can be fully released, and all the parts of the game machine are produced by CNC machine tools. The capacity adjustment is very fast.

Bao Zixuan: "Then let's go all out! We must have confidence in our own products, and we must believe in Yokoi-kun." ”

"By the way, how about Super Mario and Contra game development, Miyamoto-kun. ”

It's been a while since the last time these two games were established.,I believe that with the current speed of black cloud research and development, it should be a bit eyebrow-raising.,Otherwise, the efficiency will be too low.。

Miyamoto Mao has long wanted to reciprocate, but he has been talking about the FC red and white machine just now, and he has not had a chance to say anything about the two games.

Miyamoto: "Now that the Super Mario has been developed and is doing the final tests, all the work will be completed by the end of this month. However, Contra will have at least 4 months to go, and we have just finished setting up the game algorithm. Contra is different from our previous games, all the algorithms have to be refreshed. ”

Bao Zixuan knew that Super Mario could borrow a lot of algorithms from Donkey Kong, which could save a lot of preparation time. Contra has all started from scratch, but I'm still very satisfied with this speed. He hasn't asked a single question since the project was established, and all the work is done by the team. This also proves that the strength of Black Cloud Gaming is definitely the best in the industry.

After returning to his office, Bao Zixuan looked at the research and development progress of all recent projects. He is not very satisfied with some of the results, and now the home appliance department is still not in the state, and it is still eating the old book. It seems that it is necessary to increase investment in this area, otherwise it will be eliminated sooner or later.

The research and development of lithography machines should also be stepped up, but now that Sony's technology has been completely eaten, this is not a small progress.

After returning to school, Bao Zixuan is ready to enter the automotive field, otherwise it would be a waste to buy so many patents and come back. Thinking about so many R&D projects, I really can't be complacent, otherwise it will be very dangerous.
