Pangu Console has been listed in Hong Kong for 11 days, but early every morning, the queue in front of the store of the new venture electronics company has not shortened, but has become longer and longer.

Shipping every day not only can't quench your thirst, but it makes the market even more hungry for the Pangu console.

"What kind of nerves does the new venture electronics have? There are 1,111 units a day, what a monkey!" A young man was sweating profusely, looking at the scorching sun in the sky, wondering, who am I, why am I here, what am I going to do? Is it worth it?

My brother is a computer doctor in the United States, and after he came back from the United States, he spent 10,000 yuan to buy a Pangu high-end version, because even if he spent $4,000 to buy a high-end personal computer in the United States, the hardware configuration is far inferior to the Pangu host. A fat man behind him didn't mind and said, "It's a pity that my brother was only a few hours late for me, and he took the Pangu host back to the United States." ”

"Your brother is a commercial spy, right?" said the young man at the front of the line.

"Nonsense is just to learn about the products of business opponents through formal channels. Most companies in the world will do this, including new start-ups, and their R&D personnel must have taken apart the representative works of competitors on the market and studied them clearly. The fat man said, "What's more, my brother is engaged in the software industry, so maybe he will develop the software of the Pangu system in the future." ”

"There must be a head, the current Pangu console, sold so cheaply, the cost performance is impeccable! However, the biggest drawback is that there is too little software. Including game software, it is said that there are more than 20 kinds of games in total. If you go to develop a game, it will definitely have a future. ”

"I studied computers, so I bought them and saw if I could write my own programs and make games. ”

The current Pangu host is simply a dream-like host.

The rest of the hardware is understandable, and the biggest difference may be that it is the first to use a CD drive, with a capacity of up to 650MB of CD storage, so that games can be made bigger. Of course, the effect of the performance is naturally extremely shocking.

Of course, even the non-disc version of the game brings a better experience because of the strong CPU, memory, and graphics card of the Pangu console.

The game software of the Pangu console is currently divided into a cassette version and a disc version, and the cassette version is currently priced at 58 Hong Kong dollars, because its capacity is relatively small, only 2.88MB of ROM game cartridges.

However, there is no shortage of high-quality products in these small games, such as "Chinese Cube", "Tank Wars" and other classic game cartridges with small capacity but still high playability, which are still purchased by many players. There were only 18 ROM cartridge games in the first batch, most of which were ported from the classic games of the new startup electronics company.

At present, the total sales of game cartridges have exceeded 50,000 copies, and many gamers basically do not pick games, and there are not too many new games that can be bought on the market.

In addition, the number of CD versions of games is even rarer, with only three games: "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", "Fengshen List", and "Breaking the Sky". At present, Xinchuang Electronics has priced these CD-ROM games at 98 Hong Kong dollars, although the production cost of CD discs is very low, but ...... The large volume of games means that the workload of game developers is much larger than that of games that used to be only a few megabytes.

In addition to the original game of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" on the Pangu console platform, "Breaking the Sky" and "Fengshen List" are both arcade platform ported versions. Although, the performance of the Pangu console is also very strong, but after all, there is still a huge gap with the high-end arcade machine with a market price of $5,000 a piece. Even so, console gamers are very excited because they can experience high-end RPGs in arcades at home.

……

In fact, after the launch of the Pangu console, not only gamers were interested in it, but also many people in the computer industry were also interested in it.

For example, the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences asked someone to come and buy 20 Pangu hosts for research.

Originally, Professor Zeng of the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences benefited from the friendship with Lin Qi and became the director of the Institute of Computer Science.

The investment of new venture electronics in China and the establishment of a joint venture company, Xinai Electronics Company, can also be regarded as the political achievements of Professor Zeng Dachao. After becoming the leader of the computer science institute, Professor Tsang naturally chose to continue to maintain a good cooperative relationship with the new start-up electronics company.

For example, the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences sent more than 20 researchers to the research institute of Xinchuang Electronics for investigation and study. At the same time, Xinchuang Electronics also outsourced a bunch of R&D projects to the Institute of Computer Science.

The annual outsourcing orders to the computer institute can reach 30 million Hong Kong dollars, which is also the largest source of income for the computer institute at present, and even more than the amount allocated by the higher departments. Of course, the scientific and technological patents contributed by the Institute of Computer Science to Xinchuang Electronics are also extremely rich, with an average of no less than 200 international patents contributed to Xinchuang Electronics every year.

Moreover, these patents are not casual perfunctory, but have market prospects, but the new electronics company is indeed a project that is outsourced due to a shortage of manpower.

"Mr. Lin, hello, I am Liu Lenovo, a researcher at the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, this is a letter of introduction written by Director Zeng......" A middle-aged man who is nearly 40 years old, his face is full of ambition.

"Liu Lenovo?" Lin Qi glanced at him, frowning, although Liu Lenovo founded Lenovo Company, but it has done more damage than contribution to China's computer industry. The success of Liu Lenovo does not mean that its ability is outstanding, but that it has a hand in speculation.

Originally, it should have been 84 years because of the scarcity of scientific research funds from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, most of the researchers had nothing to do, drinking tea and reading newspapers all day long. In 84, there was a turning point, that is, to encourage scientific researchers to go to the sea to start a business, so Liu Lenovo encouraged more than a dozen staff members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to start a business with him.

Liu Lenovo is more cunning, not only started his own business, but has not cut off the connection with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which has always been an important shareholder of Lenovo.

With the help of the resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, its fox and tiger are powerful, attracting many outstanding talents in the system to join Lenovo. For example, at the beginning of Lenovo's business, there were fart technologies and products, and this group of people were staring at the achievements of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, for example, with the help of the skin of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ni Guangnan was fooled into joining Lenovo with his achievements Lenovo Hanka. By selling the Hanka developed by Ni Guangnan, Lenovo made the first pot of gold.

After that, Ni Guangnan, who had the dream of becoming a strong country, wanted to engage in independent technology, including independent research and development of computer motherboards, Chinese operating systems, program-controlled switches, and even CPUs, memory, and mechanical hard disks...... Basically, Ni Guangnan is very dissatisfied with these parts that cannot be independently developed in China and need to be imported, and has been trying to use the profits earned by Lenovo in the market to invest in the research and development of core technologies, and many projects have yielded results.

But...... Lenovo's management opposes independent research and development, feeling that self-developed products cannot make money and have no market. The Lenovo management led by Lenovo Liu has no big ideals and ambitions, and just wants to pick up the rags behind IBM and other giants, and the technology that people are ready to eliminate is acquired by Lenovo at a large price.

Lenovo, which has spent a lot of money and resources in the system, has become a profit-making machine for a small number of founders, and moreover, it is still not enterprising, only willing to be a comprador, and is extremely opposed to independent research and development of reactionary compradors.

Because Liu thought of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, he went against the grain. However, the suppression of independent research and development researchers such as Ni Guangnan, and many technical routes, proved that Liu Lenovo was wrong and Ni Guangnan was right. For example, the program-controlled switch that was dismounted by Liu Lenovo was dismissed on the grounds that large foreign companies are more advanced and better, and there is no need to continue to develop.

But...... Later, Huawei and ZTE made their fortunes by relying on program-controlled switches, and the switch technology of the two companies was even inferior to the Lenovo program-controlled switches led by Ni Guangnan at the beginning. ZTE and Huawei both know that the countryside surrounds the city, first develops business from the third and fourth tier towns, and gradually begins to counterattack the first- and second-tier cities, and later, most of the "advanced" manufacturers have been counterattacked by ZTE and Huawei, and a large number of overseas giants have gone bankrupt because the market share of Chinese counterparts has exceeded nearly fifty percent.

Among the many domestic technology companies, Lenovo started relatively early and has more resources, but it is the most unpromising and ambitious.

Seeing Lin Qi frowning inexplicably, Liu Lian didn't dare to breathe in fright, and secretly said in his heart, I shouldn't have offended this master, right?
