Ichiro Morita, who thought he had the upper hand, couldn't wait to sign a gambling agreement with Gao Wen on the same day.

After signing the agreement, Ichiro Morita brought up the old story again, asking how Gawain planned to make the 3.5-inch floppy disk a mainstream technology.

With the gambling agreement that has not been dried, Gao Wen has no scruples, and immediately told Morita Ichiro about his plans.

When Ichiro Morita listened to the plan, his heart couldn't help but move. His instincts told him that the probability of success of this plan was very high, and if this plan was implemented by Sony, there was no guarantee that it would be 100% successful, but 99% of it would be successful.

At this moment, in order to further win the trust of Ichiro Morita, Gawain took out a detailed information about the home computer that had been prepared earlier from his briefcase and handed it to Ichiro Morita.

Ichiro Morita absentmindedly took the information and only glanced at it hastily. Unexpectedly, this glance surprised him, and he couldn't take his eyes off anymore.

It took him a while before he raised his head and stared at Gawain with his two eyes as big as copper bells, with an incredulous expression.

"It's... This is absolutely impossible. Based on the information on your profile, it is not an exaggeration to say that your home computer is luxurious. It not only has a built-in C80 processor comparable to the 8086 processor, but also 16k memory, 10M hard disk, and 3.5-inch floppy drive.

In addition to the central processing unit of the home computer under this configuration, other configurations such as memory, hard disk, and floppy drive are at the top level in personal PCs, among which solid-state 10M hard disk and 3.5-inch floppy drive are currently unique technologies. How can a home computer with such a configuration cost only $500, even if it is a dedicated computer that you call for home entertainment, and does not have a monitor like a personal PC, but chooses an external TV, it will never cost a pitiful $500.

In my opinion, your home computer with this configuration is definitely not much worse than some personal PCs on the market, and in many places it is unique, so the price should be above $1,000 to be reasonable. ”

Gao Wen shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said to Ichiro Morita:

"However, my positioning of home computers is mainly entertainment, supplemented by office, simple and easy to use, and inexpensive, and I have never thought of making home computers compete with personal PCs. ”

Ichiro Morita frowned and reminded:

"But in this case, your company in charge of producing home computers will lose all your pants. ”

Gawain shook his head and smiled calmly:

"That's not it, at most it's a loss in the early stage. According to Moore's Law, the cost will drop significantly in the middle and late stages, and when the time comes, not only can you earn back the loss, but you can also make more hard-earned money. ”

Ichiro Morita was unwilling:

"It's a high-risk, low-reward. Why do you bother to make this hard-earned money, why don't you ......"

Gao Wen shook his head and interrupted Ichiro Morita loudly:

"As long as we can occupy the market, this kind of effort is still worth it. ”

Seeing that Gao Wen had made up his mind, Ichiro Morita couldn't help but be gloomy. Although he had the intention of plagiarizing Gao Wen's plan for his own use, when Gao Wen offered the magic weapon of low cost and low price, he could only wisely put away his crooked thoughts.

However, although Ichiro Morita gave up his plan to plagiarize Gawain, it does not mean that he will stop there.

In just a split second, he had a new idea, and he decided to do his best to help Gawain realize his plan.

And the reason why he made such a decision was not because of his good intentions, but because he came up with a new idea to steal the fruits of Gawain's victory 100%. No matter how successful Gawain's plan is, in the end it is just a wedding dress for him.

Thinking of this, Ichiro Morita became more friendly, and extended a helping hand very intimately, and said to Gao Wen:

"If you need any help, just tell me. ”

Gao Wen saw that Ichiro Morita was so generous, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider, so he asked Ichiro Morita to use Sony's strong influence in Fuso and invite excellent game developers in Fuso to transplant their excellent games to their home computer platforms.

Ichiro Morita agreed to this without blinking, anyway, no matter how Gao Wen jumped, he was the one who benefited in the end.

......

In the blink of an eye, the annual Christmas is coming again, and as usual, the Las Vegas Holiday Goods Show is about to kick off again.

For many companies, this annual festival exhibition is a big carnival, and every exhibiting company will be carefully prepared for this big carnival, and Atari is no exception.

Three days before the opening of the Las Vegas Festival Show, Atari's Victor president called in his assistant and asked about preparations for this year's Las Vegas Festival Show.

"How are the exhibitions being arranged this year?"

The assistant hesitated for a moment, then hesitated: "Everything is ready, but..."

President Vidocq frowned and said displeasedly, "Just what?"

The assistant looked like he was facing a great enemy, and said solemnly: "It's just that this year we have a new opponent." ”

"It's funny, there are people who dare to be our opponent of Atari, and I really admire his courage. What kind of company is it that is so ignorant?"

"It's a Hong Kong company. ”

"Xiangjiang, the British colony that has always been famous for its clothing and plastic flowers. ”

"But their products are not to be underestimated, they have the same performance as personal PCs, but they take the same home entertainment route as our Atari consoles.

Such a product is too much of a threat to our Atari 2600, and we better nip it in the bud. ”
