That's right, but the meaning can't be understood like this, as Li Rui's deputy, Wang Zhi understands in his heart: his own head is watching others eat meat, but he can't even drink soup, and he is depressed.

Also!

Although the specific technical scheme has not yet come out, how much difference can there be between the picture tube for TV and the picture tube for computer display?

Hardly!

It's nothing more than a matter of scanning method and refresh rate, what? You say that the input signal of the two is different, one is an analog signal and the other is a digital signal?

Are you kidding!

A slightly more skilled appliance repairman can easily convert a computer monitor into a television that accepts analog signals, and in turn, a few years later, on the night market street where you eat and drink, there are countless small bosses who will replace a computer monitor with a 25-inch big-headed TV in order to save money......

The way of inputting the signal is not a problem at all, the fundamental problem is that the State Administration of Computer Industry does not have a picture tube production line in its hands, let alone a 12 or 14-inch color picture tube production line, and there is not even a 9-inch black and white picture tube production line!

Now it's okay, I can't even drink the soup when I watch it being eaten, how can I bear it?

It's no wonder that the head of his own family is on fire, and Wang Zhi's own heart is also scratching his heart and lungs - it's still the same sentence, this is an opportunity to earn dollars!

In the current era of "everything is on par with earning dollars!", the subjective initiative of officials in earning dollars is beyond imagination, and Wang Yi gritted his teeth: "Director, or ...... Let's find a way to introduce a CRT production line?"

"Hmm, introduce a color display production line?"

Li Rui's heart was suddenly pounding, but he was still a little hesitant......

Wang Zhi nodded heavily and said, "And since this is the case, let's just do it in one step and directly show the color...... I have seen that in the future, the computer monitor, color display will definitely be the mainstream. ”

Li Rui's heart was instantly moved: Yes, yes, if the General Administration has a computer-specific color display production line in its hands, can this cooperation still be the turn of the Fourth Machine Department and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television Industry?

But now the State Administration of Computer Industry can only watch the Fourth Machine Department and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television Industry eat meat, and they may not be able to drink soup if they want to, but Li Rui also has his own worries: "That's right, but we're only doing this now, it's a bit impossible to catch up, right? Mr. Chen Geng can't wait for our production line to be built......

Another meaning in this statement is: Even if everything goes well, from the approval from above to the completion and acceptance of the production line, our production line will take three years to complete at the earliest, and in three years, the daylily will be cold, is it possible that those guys from the Fourth Machinery Department and the State Administration of Radio and Television Industry will watch us do this? Impossible; Could it be that Mr. Chen Geng is just waiting for himself with such a blank eye? It is also impossible.

And most importantly, where does the money come from?

If you import technology from abroad, you need foreign exchange.

Foreign exchange, on the other hand, is regulated by the state.

Wang Zhi also frowned: What can I do about this?

Again, driven by the politically correct matter of "earning dollars for the country!" which can only be praised and absolutely impossible to criticize, people's subjective initiative is infinitely magnified, as long as they want to earn dollars in their hearts, they have to earn it if they have difficulties, and they have to earn it if they have no difficulty and find ways to create difficulties.

"Or ...... Let's just cooperate with Mr. Chen Geng. ”

"Cooperate with Chen Geng?" Li Rui frowned, although he didn't quite understand Wang Zhi's thoughts, it didn't prevent him from letting Wang Zhi continue.

Wang Zhi: "Isn't our country now reforming and opening up, the electronic computer is becoming more and more popular in the United States, I heard that more and more companies and enterprises, and even government departments in the United States have begun to use computers, that is the United States, I think in the near future, personal computers will definitely be the trend of world development, and more and more government departments and units will begin to use and buy computer ......."

Li Rui frowned.

Born in 1921, he has been engaged in politics and propaganda work since joining the revolution, and in 1954, he began to prepare for the capital's state-owned North China Radio Equipment Joint Factory as the director of the preparatory department and then served as the director of the factory.

In 1977, he began to serve as the secretary of the party group and director of the State Administration of Electronic and Computer Industry as the deputy minister of the Ministry of the Fourth Machine, and has been tracking the technological development trend of foreign electronic computers, attaching great importance to the development of computer technology.

Wang Zhi said that personal computers will become the trend of world development in the future, and more and more enterprises, scientific research units, and government units will purchase computers.

I don't blame Li Rui, after all, he is 60 years old, and it is normal for his brain to not turn for a while.

"Director, that's what I think," Wang Zhi continued: "Our country's technology in personal computers ...... Hi, in fact, that's the thing, Mr. Chen Geng's Garrett 2000 technical strength is definitely stronger than ours, in this case, then why don't our General Administration of Industry and Mr. Chen Geng jointly establish a joint venture company specializing in electronic computers?

On the one hand, we can get the support of Mr. Chen Geng in terms of technology, on the other hand, we can also rely on this to export some electronic computer accessories to the United States, I heard that Garrett 2000 does not have its own electronic computer production plant, and we can even help them OEM when the time comes......"

That's right!

Li Rui's heart was turbulent in an instant: How much money can he make by selling a few computer picture tubes? But if he can do OEM work for Chen Geng, and if he can still produce picture tubes, then he can make two dollars from OEM and picture tubes......

It's worth it!

After all, it is clear that even if we are making money from Mr. Chen Geng, as long as the conditions are right, according to Chen Geng, if we can "achieve a win-win situation", it should not be a big problem, right?

Thinking of this, Li Rui didn't hesitate anymore, immediately slapped the table, and said loudly: "Comrade at home, come to my office for a meeting in twenty minutes!"

....................................

"Mr. Chen, how many picture tubes can you purchase in a year?" The person who asked this was Vice Minister Wang of the Fourth Aircraft Department, and his expression was extremely cautious when he asked this.

Chen Geng didn't think too much, in his opinion, Vice Minister Wang's problem should be taken for granted: even if it is to transform and upgrade the existing products, it also needs money, and people always have to measure whether the money is worth it according to their own needs. Nodding and saying: "It's not too much, our company's personal electronic computers are on the market at the end of September this year, and from the end of September this year to the end of September next year, we need about 400,000 picture tubes for 9-inch and 12-inch black and white displays......"

Bang dang!

Before Chen Geng's words were finished, the big teacup held by Vice Minister Wang fell to the ground, he looked at Chen Geng with straight eyes, and muttered unconsciously in his mouth: "4...... 400,000 ......"

Vice Minister Wang actually doesn't know how much a progressive scanning black and white picture tube for a computer costs, but I don't know, at least there is a reference object, that is, a black and white picture tube for a motor of the same size, the price of a black and white picture tube for a 9-inch TV is about 90 yuan, the price of a black and white picture tube for a 12-inch TV is about 100 yuan, and the black and white picture tube of the same size and specification for computers is not too much to add 20@ on the basis of this price, right?

Then the price of a single picture tube is 108 and 120, and the two specifications and sizes of picture tubes are calculated with a 50:50 procurement distribution, so the total purchase price is 21.6 million RMB plus 24 million RMB, which is 45.6 million, if converted to US dollars......

Vice Minister Wang suddenly felt that his heart was beating so fast!

Not only Vice Minister Wang, but also more than a dozen leading comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, the State Administration of Computer Industry, and the State Administration of Radio and Television Industry who hurried over after hearing the news, their faces flushed, and all of them had only one thought in their hearts: to make a fortune!

Of course, Chen Geng's purchase volume is relatively large, and he may not be able to get this price, but even if it is calculated according to the price of 90 and 100, even if it is calculated at a loss price of 80 and 90, it is still a very large amount of foreign exchange income -- what? What should you do if you say that you have lost money? That is not a problem! As long as you can earn foreign exchange for the state, how much you have lost, the state will give you the profit you originally deserved, including the principal and interest.

Chen Geng was a little surprised by everyone's reaction, but he didn't think much about it: "In the next year, we will purchase 400,000 tubes, and it is expected that we will be able to purchase more than 3 million in the next five years, and in the long run, in the next ten years, the number of picture tubes we will purchase may exceed 10 million......"

Poof!

In the end, an older leading comrade of the Fourth Machinery Department could not stand the stimulation and fainted, but even if he fainted, this old comrade, who was almost 70 years old, still kept muttering: "10 million...... 10 million ah......"

Vice Minister Wang couldn't control himself anymore, he suddenly ripped off the collar of his tunic and hissed: "Mr. Chen, can there really be 10 million? You're not kidding?"

Chen Geng glanced at him strangely, a little strange why he reacted like this, but the whole person nodded quickly: "Of course!"
