Yu Youcheng is also very happy that the "Phantasy Star" can be developed as soon as possible, and Aihua Electronics will be able to get a large amount of orders at that time.

For Wu Ming and Huo Jianning, the future game market will exceed tens of billions of dollars, or even hundreds of billions of dollars. Although Yu Youcheng was still a little skeptical, he was not as confident at all as he was at the beginning.

Yu Youkecheng knows very well that now Xingchen Entertainment's monthly sales have reached more than 100 million US dollars, which is 1.2 billion US dollars a year.

Although this has almost reached the peak of the current stage, and it is unlikely to rise, it can also be speculated on the size of the entire game market.

At present, the leader of the global game industry is still Atari, and although Star Entertainment is developing very rapidly, it can only rank second in the global game industry.

From this, it can be inferred that the global game market size is at least billions of dollars, and reaching tens of billions is not hopeless, but it must be achieved.

As for hundreds of billions of dollars, Yu Youcheng didn't dare to think about it.

Until a few decades later, the global game market really reached hundreds of billions of dollars, and Star Entertainment accounted for half of it.

On the news, Yu Youcheng couldn't help but sigh: "Once Wu Ming's little ghost said that the game market size would reach hundreds of billions in the future. I didn't believe it all the time, thinking he was daydreaming. Now I understand that it is because he has this spirit of 'daydreaming' that Xingchen Entertainment can become the leader of the game industry under his leadership and occupy half of the game market. To paraphrase him, 'Dreams still have to be there, what if they come true.'" ”

Huo Jianning can be full of confidence in the game industry, and Wu Ming is naturally very happy.

He has too much to do, and it's impossible to put all his energy into Star Entertainment. With Huo Jianning, a great talent, to manage Xingchen Entertainment, he can also rest assured.

After pondering for a while, Wu Ming said: "Although our various projects have achieved good results now, we can't stop moving forward. ”

"Teacher, the next thing you have to do is to start developing a 16-bit reduced instruction set CPU, which will be named 'ARM16'. In the future, whether it is a handheld or a home machine, it will definitely have to be upgraded, and this CPU will allow us to continue to maintain the performance advantage. ”

Yu Youcheng nodded, and scolded with a smile: "You stinky boy, you know how to call the teacher when you have something to do." Even if you don't say it, I'm going to mention it, just an 8-bit CPU, but I can't be satisfied. ”

In the view of Yu Youcheng, who has been at Intel, the A8 chip is just an appetizer, and the 16-bit CPU is the next meal.

After the block machine was put into production, Aihua Electronics immediately asked Taihua Electronics to continue to expand the scale and produce the block machine.

The government of Pengcheng is both painful and happy about this, and the new order means that Pengcheng will be able to get more foreign exchange.

In the past few months, the speed of Taihua Electronics' gold absorption has stunned them, and they never thought that just a foundry could make so much money.

Especially in June, the production of Pokemon pet machines was successively transferred to Taihua Electronics, which made them ecstatic.

Now they can have the new project of the block machine, and they are naturally very happy.

But the purchase of production lines, the expansion of the plant all need money, they originally wanted to extract part of their profits from Taihua Electronics to build other aspects, but now they have to dispel this idea.

……

At the end of August, after more than a month of production, more than two million cube machines had been shipped.

After more than a month of bombardment advertising, many people already know that the second child in the game industry is that Xingchen Entertainment will launch a new product.

In the hotel, hundreds of news media from all over the world gathered together, waiting for Huo Jianning to announce the new products of Xingchen Entertainment.

Huo Jianning stood on the stage with the microphone and talked eloquently: "Welcome all friends to our new product launch conference of Star Entertainment. For more than a month, many people have been speculating about our new products. It's just that they're either guessing it's a new game or a home console. Actually, they all guessed wrong, the real new product is this little thing in my hand. ”

Huo Jianning held the machine in his hand high, as if he wanted everyone to see it.

It's a rectangular machine, about the size of an adult's palm, with a screen on the top and many buttons on the bottom.

The buttons on the left are D-pads to control direction, and on the right is a circular button to control deformation and other functions. Above these buttons, there are also several small buttons responsible for powering on, resetting, and so on.

"This is a handheld machine!" A reporter recognized the machine in Huo Jianning's hand and exclaimed loudly.

Huo Jianning nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, this friend's guess is right. This is exactly a handheld computer, and our Star Entertainment calls this handheld as 'cube computer'.

As the name suggests, the main function of the cube machine is to play the most popular game on the market today, "Great Wall Cube". For more information, please watch a short video. ”

I saw that the big screen behind Huo Jianning began to play the operation image of the block machine.

As the person on the screen kept pressing the buttons, and the blocks on the block machine fell, everyone present knew what the block machine did.

Immediately caused a sensation below.

This is "Great Wall Cube", the hottest game in the world. There weren't many people in the room who hadn't played the game.

Now that a special game console has been developed, you can play this game anytime and anywhere in the future.

In the United States, there are many players who are dissatisfied with playing the game on arcades, and have cracked and developed a computer version.

It's just that there is no Internet in this era, and the scope of communication is only limited to a small circle.

"And unlike the handheld ones on the market, the cube machine doesn't just play one game. Huo Jianning dropped a bomb again.

People on the big screen have begun to insert a piece of game cartridge into the cube machine, and with the insertion of the cartridge, the game displayed on the cube machine has changed, from "Great Wall Block" to "Racing".

"It's incredible!" muttered one reporter.

Huo Jianning smiled slightly and said, "Finally, I want to announce the price of this handheld. ”

Everyone present held their breath.

"This block machine costs $40 and comes with the Great Wall Block. Yes, folks, for $40, you can take Great Wall Blocks home. On top of that, we have more than a dozen other games for you to choose from, all for just $5 per cartridge. ”

The scene suddenly burst into thunderous applause.
