Chapter 209: Making an Arcade Machine

There's a saying.

The early morning in Lao Shanghai starts with a bowl of Yangchun noodles.

For many people who have lived in Shanghai for many years, the food in their memory is not a delicacies of the mountains and seas, but a bowl of ordinary Yangchun noodles, red soup, white noodles, and a wide soup with dots of green onions and small garlic leaves.

Ching Hai Road, noodle shop.

Wang Qiang, who was sitting by the window, was eating noodles in a big gulp, and stretched out his thumb to Sun Weixing, who was sitting opposite, and said, "Brother Sun, the noodle restaurant you introduced tastes really good." ”

Sun Weixing laughed, "I'm old Shanghai, can I introduce you to the bad one?" He put down his chopsticks, took out Hongta Mountain from his pocket, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, took out a lighter and clicked it, took a deep breath, and said, "What did you do when you asked me to come out early in the morning? Just to invite me to eat noodles?"

After doing business with Bo Yuntian yesterday, Wang Qiang came back from the train overnight, and found Sun Weixing early this morning, and asked if he could make the shell of the arcade machine, in fact, the shell is easy to do, mainly the problem of the display screen and circuit board, if you don't find a professional, you really can't play, so he immediately thought of Sun Weixing, who repaired home appliances.

"Brother Sun, if you like it, I can invite you to eat noodles every morning. Wang Qiang smiled and said.

It's a pity that Sun Weixing saw through it at a glance, and he scolded with a smile: "You kid must let me do something, yes, let's not go around in circles, there is something to say." ”

Wang Qiang, who was exposed, didn't look embarrassed, he ate the last bite of noodles, drank a sip of soup, and was warm, "That's the case, I want to ask if you know about the arcade?"

"You know, my son has been dragged out of the game room by me several times, can you not know? Lao Sun took another puff of his cigarette.

Wang Qiang picked up the conversation, "Then do you know how to make an arcade machine?"

"I won't do this, the substrate in that thing is developed by the Japanese stupid people at a great price, and I have been hired as an engineer by someone with a high salary to be able to make an arcade machine if I repair electrical appliances. "Lao Sun is quite playful when he speaks.

Wang Qiang patted his head and said that something was wrong, he hurriedly said: "I have the substrate, I mean, can you make a suitable circuit board and a display screen connecting the substrate." ”

Lao Sun suddenly realized: "This is simple, but you have to find a carpenter to make the frame of the arcade machine for you, and buy a button back, you find someone to give me a hand, it is not a problem to make four or five units a day, but why do you make an arcade machine? It doesn't want to sell it? As far as I know, many game hall owners in Shanghai, they are all cooperating with manufacturers, few people buy arcade machines by themselves, the price is too expensive, 40,000 yuan a piece, those bosses really have the money to buy their own, and what arcade room to open, how good it is to enter the stock market directly." ”

Indeed, what Lao Sun said is a problem.

Nowadays, many owners of arcade rooms cooperate with manufacturers, and few buy them themselves.

But Wang Qiang has his own ideas, the market price of the arcade machine is 40,000 yuan, and even some are more expensive, his is not so expensive, the substrate is a copycat, the wooden frame and the display screen don't cost too much money, and when it is made for 30,000 yuan to be sold to others, don't worry about not being able to sell it, right?

Theoretically speaking, Wang Qiang is very confident, but he has not yet practiced, and in fact, he has no bottom in his heart.

……

Had breakfast.

Wang Qiang took his grandson's motorcycle to the mall to buy a 17-inch color TV, making an arcade machine is different from opening a red and white game room, you can't use a second-hand TV, you need a new one.

Of course, you can't buy imported ones.

Now the price of imported color TVs is scary, and there are a lot of them, and the cheapness is more than 6,000.

The two walked around the mall, relying on Lao Sun's eloquent mouth, and finally bought five 17-inch Changhong color TVs, 341, and the 100,000 yuan just arrived was not hot, so it cost 17,000.

Then the two went to buy buttons, circuit boards and various wires, anyway, Wang Qiang didn't understand, just let Lao Sun choose and pay for it himself.

By the time all the materials were purchased, it was almost noon.

Wang Qiang and Lao Sun found a small restaurant and rubbed it again, and asked others to do things, they must have good food and good food to serve, and he also bought a Hongta Mountain for Sun Weixing, saying that he would give a reward of 100 yuan for making one.

Lao Sun repeatedly said no.

Wang Qiang had no choice, so he had to say that the money was divided equally between him and the carpenter, and let Lao Sun look at it, and when Lao Sun heard that he definitely couldn't be a cheap carpenter, he agreed to accept it.

Appliance repair shops.

The invited carpenter was measuring the size of the wooden board with a tape measure, and from time to time called Wang Qiang to help play the ink line.

Lao Sun was squatting on the ground and tinkering with the circuit board and a bunch of wires, "Eh, Xiao Wang, come here." ”

"It's coming. Wang Qiang put away the ink line, put it on the wooden board, turned around and walked to the door, half-squatted down and said, "Brother Sun, do you want to help?"

Sun Weixing pointed to the freshly sawed wooden plank underneath, "You put the rocker on." ”

Wang Qiang sweated, "I won't do this." ”

"I'll teach you. Lao Sun picked up the wooden board and pointed to the five holes above, "The four here are equipped with buttons, and the only one is to install the rocker, what about you, first plug the rocker from below, then tighten it with screws, and finally get the strawberry ball up, you don't have to work hard, I will get a circuit switch for a few days when I go back." ”

"It's that simple?" Wang Qiang smiled: "I thought it was so difficult." ”

Lao Sun Le said: "Do you think it's really that simple? This is called looking simple, I will have to connect the substrate and the circuit board and these buttons and rockers later, there are many things involved, and you will not be able to explain it clearly for a while, let's work first." ”

"Good. Wang Qiang also squatted down, picked up the rocker and unscrewed the strawberry ball first, then plugged it up through the round hole in the wooden board, and then picked up a screwdriver to screw the screws.

This job is easy to say, but it is actually more laborious to operate.

Because Wang Qiang had to hold the bottom with one hand and screw with the other, he almost twisted crookedly several times.

A total of ten rockers needed to be installed, and he carefully installed them one by one, and it took him an hour and a half to get them right.

As soon as he finished installing the joystick, he looked up and found that the buttons on the wooden board were skillfully installed by Lao Sun, and he hadn't even gotten the joystick in his hand, Wang Qiang wiped the sweat on his forehead, "Brother Sun, you are fast enough." ”

"That's because you're slow. Lao Sun had a cigarette in his mouth as always, he didn't need to flick the cigarette ash, and got up with the substrate and circuit board that had been made before, "Take the handle, take the frame that Master Ling made just now." ”

The frame is only ready, and the carpenter is still busy.

Wang Qiang ran over and hugged the frame with both hands, a little weighty, estimated to be about twenty catties, he hugged it to the door and put it down, "And then?"

"Then give it to me. Lao Sun ran to the back of the frame, hummed a little tune that he didn't know, and installed the substrate and circuit board one by one.

It took about ten minutes.

Wang Qiang has been watching from the side.

After installing the circuit board and substrate, Lao Sun was busy installing the control panel, and finally checked it three or four times again and again, and only after confirming that there was no problem did he said: "Xiao Wang, bring me the drag board." ”

Wang Qiang picked up the drag line board from the counter and put it down.

Lao Sun plugged the plug in, and then pressed the switch, and the arcade machine that had just been made came with a burst of stirring music.

Wang Qiang was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran to the front to see that Street Fighter 2 had already appeared on the screen of the original TV screen.

"If you can't try it, if you can, just paint it and dry it. Lao Sun sat down and rested.

Wang Qiang sighed, pressed the button to select someone, went in and played, and found that there was no problem, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Call.

The street mechanism was made.

Now it's up to us to see if we can sell it tomorrow.

Wang Qiang pondered how to sell tomorrow, turned off the arcade machine, continued to walk to the carpenter to help, and tried to make all five arcade machines today, he couldn't wait to know if his cottage arcade machine could be sold at a good price.

Well, if the arcade sells well and Wang Qiang has spare money on hand, he can invest it in the four-piece suit, and he can hurry up, and when the news comes from Boss Wang, he has to put all his energy into the company.

Hope for a good harvest tomorrow.
