has been vaguely perfunctory for a long time, and the devil seems to be grateful, and no one has any idea about anyone, which is an ordinary business Q&A.

It's just that I found the fat label for a long time.

"Where did you get this guy?"

"In the Japanese market, this guy asked around about system integrators, and I heard from other sources that this guy's company had a problem with a project, and he couldn't get it, so he planned to outsource. "You don't really want to do it, it's very low." ”

"It's a bit interesting, the Japanese have their own industry developed enough, and this kind of system is just a small matter, but there is not enough profit, and no one wants to." A system costs 10,000 yen, and now a CPU alone costs $20 on the market, how to do it?"

"That's right, that's what I said, and this guy hits the snake with the stick, and asks this and that. Later, I said that you are the inventor of 021, and this guy actually followed him to Hong Kong with a dead face, so I had no choice but to take him to meet you, so you can deal with it casually. Fei Biao smiled embarrassedly.

"That's not necessarily the case, if the operation is good...... "Changjiu didn't actually think that this guy was a liar, but just thought of one thing.

The early '80s was a chaotic time, and it's not an exaggeration to describe it as a tumultuous time, with many companies at the pinnacle of their careers being disrupted at a glance.

1983 was a very interesting year, the famous and famous arrogance and other adjectives are not enough to describe the game manufacturer Atari actually collapsed overnight, without warning, and just collapsed.

It was Christmas Eve, and all the game companies that distributed Atari were selling their games to cabbage prices, and even canceled their game divisions, but people were reluctant to buy inferior products with similar content, and almost instantaneously, Atari was at risk of bankruptcy.

'83 was a black year for the gaming industry, and no one wanted to talk about it.

The collapse of the boss led to the collapse of the entire industry chain, and for a while, the game industry, which was once more valuable than Hollywood, was almost uncared for.

It's just that at this time, the game console FC (home computer, red hundred machine) from Japan, an emerging country, was released at the right time to fill the gap. Excellent hardware performance, a large number of classic and interesting games that have never been seen before conquered people's hearts for a long time, and Nintendo has become the leader of the game industry.

Nintendo's FC has created several glories of home consoles, including the most sold, the most popular, the cheapest, etc., and so on, and deservedly leads the trend of the world.

After a long time, the documents were declassified and it was revealed that Yamauchi, the president of Nintendo, was stimulated by Atari's release of the CVS game console, and planned to develop a home console product that was at least one year ahead of its peers in 80, with a price of less than 10,000 yen.

Hiroshi Yamauchi is a gambler, he pioneered the marketing model of hardware loss-making and software money-making, and dominated the game market for almost two decades.

It's a legend, but it had a great influence on future generations, and I remembered this key thing for a long time, even though the FC was later sold for more than 18,000 yen.

It is impossible to cost 10,000 yen, and even in Japan, which can produce its own CPU, the cheapest CPU 6502 costs 20 dollars, not to mention other graphics chips.

Therefore, when I heard that the devil wanted this kind of thing for a long time, my first reaction was, could it be someone from Nintendo?

"You mean the devil wants to develop a home game console?" Fat Biao was incredulous, "No way, Atari just released the CVS console, and no one can grab it." ”

Pay a smile for a long time, extreme brilliance is decay, how can there be a way to the end, unless that kind of marketing genius, or crossing......

"I don't value this little case of theirs, what if the Japanese send it, the Japanese market has always been closed, if you can get in, hum, there is a lot to do. "Long said.

"No matter how you fight, you said that the Japanese market is closed, and our arcade machine is also entered by the east wind, and it is almost impossible to reproduce the sales of 81 years......" Fei Biao defended.

"Not necessarily, the world is crazy, anything can happen, hehe. Chang Chang smiled and said, "We have ready-made things when the devil says, don't you think?"

"Where do we have 10,000 yen, where can we buy materials?"

"Don't talk nonsense, what's going on with the production line I asked you to contact?"

"Japanese people can export as long as they have money, but it takes time. Fat Label smiled.

"Fart, how can the devil's things be so good, I want the best semiconductor production line right now!"

"Then what do you want me to do? I don't know any other companies in other countries, and I don't even know if I've been deceived!" said Fei Biao aggrievedly.

"Anyway, as long as it's not Japanese, you can ignore everything else. Long said.

Of course, the semiconductor production line of the Japanese is also a half-and-a-half, except for the outstanding performance of industrial automation, there are almost no other advantages, and they were only developed in the late 80s with the support of the state.

According to long-term understanding, even now that Japan is importing the latest lithography machines from Huaxia, it can be said that Japan's semiconductor technology has been on the same level as Huaxia in 80 years, but the focus is different, and there are mutual wins and losses.

"You really want to enter this threshold, think clearly, this is a high-investment industry, if you are not careful, you will lose all your money!" Fei Biao said urgently, he never expected that he would have this crazy idea for a long time.

The semiconductor industry can be said to be the most expensive thing in the world, without the support of the state, there is almost no profit.

There is a good saying, the first can live and nourish, the second can survive, and the other can only struggle on the line of death.

This description vividly illustrates the state of survival of the semiconductor industry, where the competition is fierce to the point of cruelty.

But there is no way for a long time, if you don't master this industry now, you can only enter the cost higher in the future. With the advancement of technology, each generation of semiconductor production lines is several times larger than the previous generation, and even the industry leaders can improve as much as they can, and building the latest ones is just a last resort.

"Judging by my contact with the devils, the system they need is likely to be a home game console. "Hmph, it's so mysterious, it's revealed in one sentence, what kind of graphics performance do other systems want?" With their requirements, the cost of 10,000 yen is probably only simplified and simplified, and the arcade machine we designed only needs to be improved, and those unused functional modules can be removed, what do you say?"

Fei Biao thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, 10,000 yen is too little, and the CPU alone accounts for one-fifth of the cost, how to do it?" This is still the cheapest processor of 6502. ”

"That's why I want my own production line, and it's an opportunity. "Even if no Japanese people want this system, I will pay for semiconductors, and they will buy them." ”

"You're saying we design the system and sell it to the Japanese with the processors you designed?" said Fei Biao suspiciously, "Will they buy it?"

He smiled mysteriously, "Do you think 10,000 yen can build a system?"

Fat Biao shook his head: "I've counted it all, absolutely not!"

Chang said: "That's the end, the Japanese will definitely buy our things." ”

Fat standard puzzled, is it possible to build a system of 10,000 yen for a long time?

The conversation between Changjiu and Feibiao confirmed at least one thing, and that is to start getting involved in the semiconductor industry.

The long-term idea is that it is now almost certain that the Japanese are going to develop home consoles. According to the course of history and the observation of the current situation, Atari will definitely collapse, and at that time, whether it is Nintendo or any other company, as long as it can release a decent home game console, as long as the price is cheap enough and the game is fun enough, it will be able to occupy the market.

Buy the production line yourself, with the performance and price of 021 CPU, you can definitely achieve low cost and excellent performance, at least no worse than 6502. With FC's sales of more than 50 million, as long as you take this order, the long-term production line will not worry about sales, which is a sure profit.

Even if the Japanese don't want the 021CPU plan, hum, then don't blame the long-term anger.

If you don't do it, as long as the talk collapses, you will decide to sell your own home machine for a long time, who is afraid of whom. With a long memory, you have to be the first in the market.

You must know that there is another killer feature for a long time, that is, to know the performance shortcomings and advantages of FC back then.

If you want to talk about the advantages of FC, that is, it has indeed achieved the limit of technology, the cost is reduced to a minimum (only more than 18,000 yen), the function has been simplified to the greatest extent (there is no other function except for the game), and the graphics performance is the highest (only FC has a dedicated graphics chip).

However, there is another big loophole, that is, bug, after FC sold nearly 500,000 units, it was discovered that there would be a reboot, the reason is that the circuit design is unreasonable, resulting in a loss of nearly hundreds of millions of yen, and also missed the hot sales time of Christmas.

Although there is no guarantee that Nintendo will make this mistake for a long time, FC was released in July '83, and it is still possible to release a new home console before them after the talks collapse.

really has this reassurance, and it will take a long time to dare to pat your chest and make a guarantee, and you will make a steady profit.

After talking with Fei Biao, Chang Chang has been in contact with the devil in many ways, tried many times, and even threw out some design plans, and finally had some results.

The devil finally admitted that he was from Nintendo, and this time he was seizing the market with the help of other companies' solutions.

Although Nintendo had many engineers, it was difficult to develop such a thing in a short period of time, and the chief engineer made it clear that 10,000 yen was an impossible task.

Yamauchi Hiroshi also looked for a source of goods according to his company's plan, but the price he raised was too low, and no company was willing to take the risk.

Nintendo was helpless, so it was forced to find a second way, secretly looking for a third-party solution, and at the same time trying to improve its own plan as much as possible.

Looking for a third party is just a matter of talking about personnel, and even Yamauchi Hiroshi himself doesn't have any hope, who knew that he would actually meet this guy for a long time.

With an idea, Nagashi and Feibiao flew to Japan and began a series of negotiations with Nintendo.
