Chapter 367: Repercussions
If the camera industry that Shuhang has been involved in is the future of CMOS optical sensors, then the purchase order of photoelectric mice from the United States means that after years of large-scale investment, the Republic finally has semiconductor electronic products that can be exported to the United States to make money.
This is not only a huge economic effect, but also the impact behind this technological breakthrough, which has brought stimulation and vitality to the entire technology industry in the Republic.
The success of Professor Bai Siwen's scientific research and academic research can build up the confidence of the entire scientific research community: the backward republic also has the opportunity to make world-renowned achievements in the field of science and technology, and the success of CMOS optical sensors indicates that the republic also has the strength to draw a piece of the cake in the high-tech industry.
Apple's Mac is currently the most popular graphics operating system computer in consumer personal computers, due to its high positioning, in order to solve the inherent problems of traditional scroll mice to bring customers a bad experience, the Mac project department immediately chose to purchase the light chaser photoelectric mouse produced by Yaoguang Electronics.
Even if the price of the light chaser is no less than that of an Apple 2 computer, there are still many high-end consumers who are fed up with mechanical mice and grit their teeth and make a move, and they can experience a silky smooth feel from then on.
According to Yaoguang's statistics, the output of the light chaser mouse in the first quarter directly exceeded 10,000, such data is quite remarkable, after all, the consumer group of this thing is still a niche among the niches.
The photoelectric mouse has just come out, with high added value of science and technology, and its profitability has caught up with the Yaoguang 1 computer in the same period.
Now, on the one hand, Chambers is happy to close his mouth, and on the other hand, he is roasting the Yaoguang computer project department on the fire.
87 to the strong computer listed, that thing and Yaoguang is not a level positioning, Yaoguang 1 project department also lost very single, anyway, everyone is holding their breath, waiting for Yaoguang 2 to regain the throne after the launch of the generation, but I didn't expect to be suddenly beaten by the mouse products produced by the computer accessories project department in profitability.
God, the profitability of computer accessories exceeds the profitability of the computer host itself, and the face of this Yaoguang computer project department is swollen, and it is simply that the uncle can still bear it and the aunt can't bear it.
Holding his breath, the Yaoguang Project Department also made preparations for the launch of the big move as early as possible, and only waited for the Yaoguang 2 to be successfully developed.
At the same time, it is necessary to discontinue the production of the Yaoguang 1 computer, which was too low in price that year, and cut off the unnecessary parts such as the keyboard on the Yaoguang 1, leaving only the game console function, which is roughly similar to the Nintendo FC red and white machine, for which it will also give a new Yaoguang game console product positioning, and can also re-price the product to ensure that the profitability reaches the level of the mainstream plug-in FC game console in the market during the same period.
The Yaoguang Project Department has been dissatisfied with Wang Zhengguo's forced to give Yaoguang 1 too low a price and convey Yaoguang's profits to Kaiyang Semiconductor, but they can finally have the opportunity to solve this problem completely.
I believe that after these combinations are punched out, the day will come for the Yaoguang project department to turn over, and it will definitely be able to regain its position as the first brother of the Yaoguang electronics business department.
An order from Apple Computer, which can be regarded as a recognition of the light chaser optical mouse.
But this does not mean that the foundation should treat Apple as its own teammates, with the soaring price of the light chaser mouse, Yaoguang and Kaiyang made a lot of money at the same time, the first batch of Kaiyang 905 processors produced by Kaiyang Semiconductor for Jobs Computer Company has also been loaded on the plane in the form of loose pieces and sent to Boston.
Wang Zhengguo has not seen the computer products developed by Jobs' team, he only knows that this computer codenamed AC-1 developed based on the ABC-PC system, as for the specific meaning, it is unknown.
Anyway, after Jobs got the Hetu 1.0 operating system sent to them by Yuheng Software, it took a lot of time to optimize and improve it, but the core part did not make any changes, after all, this is the basic standard requirement of the ABC-PC system, if it cannot be the same as the operating system standard in the system, then the subsequent development of AC-1 will be difficult.
It was also half a year after the product was released, Wang Zhengguo knew that AC-1 was actually just a simple modification of the icon UI interface of the Hetu system, so that it gradually developed a unique style and characteristics belonging to the AC series of computers, and even this time AC-1 even the office software is directly using Yuheng's supporting products, which is nothing more than optimizing the language selection.
However, after the launch of this graphical operating system, the large-scale real-time strategy game "Command and Conquest" with Wang Zhengguo as the game architecture consultant was finally released to the world, and the game was not only available in Chinese Simplified Chinese, but also in English for overseas markets, and Americans actually had no resistance to this game.
At the same time, the Republic of China also launched the game in the Computer Palace, but it did not have the kind of hot response in the American market, on the one hand, because the hourly charges of the Computer Palace were too expensive, and on the other hand, the Republic's personal computer industry was not as popular as the United States, so it was necessary to leave some time for the market to react.
However, Wang Zhengguo planned to open an Internet café in the United States before, and this idea was unanimously approved by everyone, including Chambers, and the Americans directly related to the foundation's units directly followed Wang Zhengguo to ponder together, and everyone pooled money to set up the Hongqi Computer Culture Company.
According to the plan, Hongqi Internet Cafe uses Jobs' AC-1 computer for all lines, and Lao Qiao is obviously also a smart person, in order to promote the ABC-PC system in the United States, but also to start the popularity of AC-1 computer, also provided Hongqi Internet Cafe at cost price, and even proposed that if the follow-up company is short of money, he can personally contribute to the shares.
The first Hongqi Internet café chose to open in Boston, the nest of Jobs Computer Company, and with the huge consumption potential of the American people, the Hongqi Internet café was also opened, and the company quickly launched an expansion plan.
Thanks to the strong support of Wang Zhengguo and Steve Jobs, the opening and expansion of new outlets is simply amazing, and there is a tendency to plant red flags all over the United States for a while.
In order to quickly sweep the entire U.S. market from the Northeast region, where Boston is located, considering that all states in the United States have legislative powers, and in view of the fact that Internet cafes belong to the cultural industry, Hongqi Internet Cafes also choose to cooperate with the elite in the United States and rely on political donations to ensure the expansion of Hongqi Internet Cafes.
In fact, this routine is also very simple to implement, and it can be directly combined with the behind-the-scenes political bigwigs in various states in the United States.
As for the drawbacks of this joining method in the company's subsequent long-term development, Wang Zhengguo is of course very clear, but he does not care about these, and he does not plan to hold the company's shares for a long time.
