After listening to the song, Li Mingfeng praised: "Ming Shao, you are so powerful, I still can't forget the song of the gourd baby last time, I didn't expect you to create such two good songs." ”

Wu Ming smiled and said, "A good song can add a lot of points to animation, so you should pay attention to it when you make animation in the future." ”

"We remembered. Everyone responded.

Touching his chin, Wu Ming asked, "How fast are you Tianmei making animations now?"

Li Mingfeng thought for a while and replied: "If you only make one "Journey to the West", you can produce about two episodes a week. ”

Wu Ming kept tapping his fingers on the table and said, "In the future, Tianmei will become my company alongside the Order of the Phoenix." How can I do it with such a little strength now, continue to recruit people for me. After the production of "Journey to the West" is completed, my "Go Boy", "Hulu Little King Kong", and "The Legend of Nezha" will all be handed over to you for production. And the Order of the Phoenix has many other manga that are also going to be animated, so you must have the strength to produce at least 6 or more animations at the same time in the future, understand? ”

Hearing Wu Ming's promise, everyone became excited. The Order of the Phoenix is a large company with a monthly profit of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, if Tianmei Animation can really become such a big company as Wu Ming said. Then the status of these managers will rise, from a silk to a high-powered big man.

Seeing that everyone's fighting spirit was mobilized, Wu Ming said with a smile: "Then this meeting is like this, as long as you make achievements, promotion and salary increase are not a problem." ”

"Understood, we will definitely not let you down. Everyone shouted excitedly.

A week later, the cartoon "Journey to the West" was officially broadcast on Li's TV station, and it was broadcast every Monday and Thursday.

After the broadcast, it immediately caused a sensation throughout Xiangjiang. The story of "Journey to the West" is so familiar that even many adults are attracted to it, and then watch cartoons with their children.

"Husband, you are such an old person, why do you still like to watch cartoons like children. The woman said speechlessly.

The man smiled and said, "This is a cartoon supervised by our boss himself, and the script was also written by him, and it is adapted from "Journey to the West". So I looked at it curiously, and I didn't expect it to be pretty good. ”

"No matter how talented the boss is, he is a child. What's so good about the cartoons he produces, you're really childlike!" the woman laughed.

The man grabbed the woman, sat her down, and said, "You should take a look with me." ”

After reading it, the woman changed her mind. She really didn't expect that cartoons could be so good-looking, no worse than TV series at all. Since then, fans have fallen in love with cartoons, and every day when the broadcast time comes, they sit in front of the TV to watch animation.

On the other hand, Wu Ming also bought prime time on Asahi TV in the island country to broadcast the "Journey to the West" cartoon.

The last time he went to the island country, Wu Ming saw the "Journey to the West" TV series filmed by the island country from the TV station. This TV series is the world's first "Journey to the West" TV series.

After reading it, Wu Ming wanted to scold his mother at that time. Nima, Tang Seng is actually played by an actress, Sun Wukong is not domineering at all, stupid, and he also fell in love with Tang Seng.

Zhu Bajie doesn't look like a pig at all, and Sha Wujing is a kappa. Guanyin is male, and Rulai is female.

There are few good-looking people in the whole TV series, and all of them are obscene.

Wu Ming was shocked by this version of "Journey to the West", and he made up his mind at that time to import the 86 version of "Journey to the West" filmed in the mainland into the island country in the future, so as to reverse the island people's ideological concept of Journey to the West.

Nowadays, although it is not possible to enter the TV series, it is not bad to use the cartoon of "Journey to the West" to wash away the concept of the island people.

Not to mention, the influence of "Journey to the West" in the island country is not covered. In addition to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", island people have a soft spot for "Journey to the West".

Otherwise, I wouldn't have filmed various Journey to the West TV series, movies and animations frequently. You must know that the version of Journey to the West that Wu Ming watched cost 1 billion yen, which was a very large production at the time, and it was not much worse in later generations. Another version of "Journey to the West" broadcast in 06 even exceeded 30% in ratings.

Therefore, Wu Ming's version of the "Journey to the West" animation, although it does not conform to the consistent concept of the island people, is still popular in the entire island country.

The various character dolls produced by the Dole Toys Island Country Branch are also in short supply once they are on sale.

TiMi and Tole earned millions of dollars from the Journey to the West animation, while Journey to the West cost only $500,000 to produce. Profit margins are as high as 900%.

……

In mid-July, Aihua Electronics' wafer fab officially settled in Xiangjiang, which is a 4-inch wafer fab with a 3-micron manufacturing process.

The leading level of the international manufacturing process is 1.5 microns, although it is a little worse, but with the foundation, Wu Ming believes that it can catch up quickly.

Originally, according to Wu Ming's idea, it was necessary to establish a wafer factory, directly outsource the business, and let other wafer factories make chips for themselves.

In Wu Ming's impression, there are two business models in the semiconductor industry.

One is the IDM (Integrated Device Manufacturing) model, which covers IC design, IC manufacturing, packaging and testing, and even extends to downstream electronic terminals.

The other is the vertical division of labor model. Only the design, R&D, application and sales of chips are carried out, and the wafer manufacturing is outsourced to professional wafer foundries.

The latter is better, but it is mainly based on intellectual investment, and the cost is not large. The former requires real money.

In later generations, a top-level large-scale wafer fab often needs to invest tens of billions of dollars.

It is very difficult to recoup the cost after it is built. Many large companies have lost so much money that they have had to divest their manufacturing divisions.

For example, Motorola spent $200 million to exit the chip industry and spun off its semiconductor division to become Freescale.

AMD also sold its wafer factory to Abu Dhabi, a tyrant from the Middle East, and IBM will also get rid of the semiconductor business by $1.5 billion.

With these lessons from the past, Wu Ming naturally wants to do it in one step and make Aihua Electronics a factoryless semiconductor company. As for chip production, we are looking for additional partners.

It wasn't until Wu Ming searched the entire market that he found that there was no specialized foundry company in this era.

And finding other companies that also have semiconductor design departments to make chips has a very big risk, and you may be stuck in the neck.

Wu Ming, who had no choice, had no choice but to give up his original plan.

It was not until later, after the emergence of specialized wafer foundry companies, that Wu Ming learned that the IDM model was much stronger than the vertical division of labor model in this period before the new century. It was not until after the new century that the vertical division of labor model was the mainstream.

This made Wu Ming can't help but wake up, we must not use the successful experience of the previous life to apply it to this era, we must combine it with the actual situation of this era, otherwise we will become an empiricist.
