Chapter Fifty-Eight: People Must Have Dreams

People always have to have some dreams, and they always have some hope to live.

Living in an environment where there are no dreams and no hopes, a person who is very tolerant will become extreme.

There are two extremes of this, one is to die out in silence, and the other is to explode in silence.

Of course, the vast majority of people die in silence, but the very few who explode in silence can burst out with great power.

At the national level, stability is the number one priority.

And I don't care whether this stability is the stability of the brave new world or the stability of 1984.

Whether it is to prohibit all entertainment, martial law in general, or entertainment to death is an option.

However, in terms of human nature, in terms of cost, it seems that the cost of entertainment to death is lower.

Even, on the contrary, it will not spend much money on this, and even make some money.

What the?

You don't believe it?

South Korea is a case in point.

You know, the economic crisis is not as mild as it seems, and so many people lose their jobs, which is not something that can be simply fooled.

But the wave of unemployment in '98 was successfully saved by video games in South Korea.

What's even more amazing is that you haven't spent much money yet, and now you can still earn a lot of taxes every year.

The South Korean government, which has tasted the sweetness of video games, has begun to support not only the e-sports industry, but also the production of video games.

After all, e-sports is only a small part of video games, and since such a small link can make so much money, why not make a lot of money in the entire industry chain?

You know, the whole country of South Korea is not very big. But this kind of indifference is also relative.

Even if it is not in East Asia, in Southeast Asia, in Europe, it is an out-and-out big country not only in terms of land area but also in terms of population.

Although the country as a whole has various problems, it is still taking advantage of every opportunity to develop.

As long as they want to develop, as long as they are enterprising, and no one is to restrain them, they will naturally develop rapidly.

It didn't take long for him to become an important member of the electronics industry.

As for the earlier pioneers, it was because of rounds of economic sanctions and because of the trade war launched by the United States, it gradually stepped down from the altar and was thrown out of the first echelon in the high-tech industry of the electronics industry.

As for China's 10,000 households, at most, they are at the same level as the manufacturers of Yuben, and they are considered to be members of the second-rate team.

However, don't look down on Wanhu because of this.

Wanhu can have such an achievement, and it is also possible because of historical opportunities.

First of all, 10,000 households have money.

Secondly, there are people in 10,000 households.

Finally, 10,000 households have technology.

Of course, whether there is money, people, or technology, in fact, the final point is a result.

Thousands of households have money because of consumer electronics, to be precise, video game consoles and video games have high profit margins.

As long as you can make a game that players like, you can make a fortune quickly.

And when there is money, there can be people.

However, it takes too long to train talents by yourself.

At this time, the Soviet Union collapsed.

Do not think that Soviet microelectronics are useless.

In fact, Intel has become the industry leader in the real electronics industry. It was from the beginning that they moved a whole Soviet institute of microelectronics back to the United States, from people to equipment.

Of course, the Soviets were not advanced everywhere. Some of them are advanced in some places, and some are backward.

However, this is a question of the technical route, not of strength.

A country where the oral test questions for college entrance can be calculus will never be worse in science and engineering.

However, instead of developing microcomputers, the Soviet Union developed large-scale, medium-sized and small computers, and thought about it from the perspective of efficiency.

After all, greater centralization is efficient.

However, this efficiency, to some extent, does not conform to the laws of the market.

Because individual users can't use that high performance, the main thing is that they can't afford to pay that money.

Only in large laboratories can such equipment be available.

In the lives of ordinary people, it is not very visible.

These talents from the former Soviet Union summoned by Wanhu also play a great role in promoting the process of Wanhu's electronics industry.

Even at the theoretical level, Wanhu has accumulated a lot of reserve information.

The reason why it is still second-rate is mainly because of the material.

In fact, the development of materials science is even more difficult than the cultivation of talents.

Again, it takes a long time, but it takes a long time to develop human resources and you can see the results, but this is not the case with materials science.

Materials science is not so much a science as an experimental discipline that keeps trying, and the blind cat touches the mouse to death.

This is a discipline that requires luck and time.

What China lacks most is the accumulation of time.

China is also a country that is also interesting, this country has made the wrong choice at almost all the key nodes of modern development.

Fortunately, such a country finally awakened a group of people and established a new country.

Understood the meaning of independence and drove out the compradors, so as to usher in a period of development that truly belonged to the country.

But, really, is the moment when the country was founded very long?

Even if it's 2,000 years now, it's still only 50 years.

In fifty years, it is not easy to make such a big change in this world.

How is it possible to surpass the developed countries that have been developing for hundreds of years in every way?

Especially in the areas where materials need to be accumulated.

Even the Soviet Union can only be described as weak in this regard.

If this were not the case, the USSR would not have taken such a technical route of coarse mines.

The kind of engine technology that can almost send bricks to the sky can only be said to have been developed as a last resort when there is a shortage of materials.

From the perspective of electronic technology, whether it is from the line width or from other technical aspects, the requirements for materials are very high.

In particular, lithography machines, the most advanced lithography machines, are produced by only one company in the world.

And the production capacity of this one is limited.

Although Wanhu is also trying to make his own lithography machine factory, he also took over his own plate and was lucky to become one of the shareholders of this Dutch company.

Although it is not as big a shareholder as Intel and Samsung, it can get the production line of the lithography machine in the first time, but it can still be obtained in the second time.

It's a kind of luck.

But while buying, you can't give up the idea of making your own.

Who knows how the world will change?
