As a well-known semiconductor high-tech industrial park, Silicon Valley is quite strong in all aspects, and a trip to Silicon Valley has gained a lot.

When Wang Zhengguo returned to Rochester, Tu Zhenying's negotiations with Bausch & Lomb, which lasted more than 20 days, also landed smoothly.

The reason why someone is in a hurry to withdraw from Silicon Valley is to be able to come to the scene to witness the first step of Shuhang Optics in North America and the first node of Tu Zhenying in the field of international business games, which is a big event.

As a group of people watched Bausch & Lomb's clerks typing out the final revised contract on a word processor, followed by a connected printer spitting out paper documents, almost all of them were thinking about how profitable the military goggles project would be in the future, but Wang Zhengguo was distracted.

Looking at the word processor on the table, I thought deeply, who is the boss of the word processor in these years?

It's not an old store like IBM, nor is it a rising star in the personal computer industry like Apple and Compaq, if you want to say that it is the most awesome in the field of word processors, it should be Wang An Computer!

Seeing the word processing machine in use by Bausch & Lomb clerk, Wang An's computer on the machine is spelled in English, this is really a forgotten big fish, as the representative of the American dream of countless Chinese, the famous Dr. Wang An can not be forgotten, since he came to the United States, and he is still doing the electronics industry, according to the Jianghu saying, it is necessary to worship the dock.

After all was done, Tu Zhenying successfully negotiated a cooperation project with Bausch & Lomb, selling each pair of military goggles to Bausch & Lomb for $36, and the glasses were marked with the words "Shu Hang-Bausch & Lomb" to indicate that this was a joint product launched by the two companies.

Tu Zhenying was very excited about the cooperation with Bausch & Lomb: "The unit price is 36 US dollars, I have roughly calculated, with our current production, the cost can actually be reduced to 6 US dollars, which means that a pair of glasses will make a profit of 30 US dollars, so that we will have at least 3 million US dollars per year for US military orders, plus US civilian goggle orders, 5 million US dollars is our goal." ”

The United States does not ban guns, and ordinary people attach great importance to eye protection when using guns, as long as this market is well developed, it will not be less than the US military's orders.

Of course, the primary goal of military goggles must be military procurement, and for Bausch & Lomb, their customers have never been only the U.S. military, and the reputation and channels of the century-old store are by no means fun.

"You can rest assured that this year's Bausch & Lomb earns more than that, and the company's customers are not only the U.S. military, but also the military markets of other countries, Canada, Israel, and even NATO countries in Europe may purchase. ”

.......

It's not too far from Rochester to Boston, where Wang An's computer company is located, and you can get there by a small regional plane, which is a different feeling than a large intercontinental airliner.

"At the signing ceremony yesterday, I saw Bausch & Lomb using word processors, from the well-known Wang An Computer Company, which is currently the largest Chinese company in the electronics industry, and in terms of industry influence, it can even be compared to IBM. ”

Word processors are widely used in the United States, the pioneer of office automation, and as for the Republic, which has just been reformed and opened up, precious foreign exchange has to be used to purchase all kinds of critical and urgently needed equipment, and word processors are dispensable.

If there is domestic production, then of course it must be purchased and used, but if it cannot be made in China, the country will definitely not use precious foreign exchange to buy this kind of thing.

The above reasons directly lead to the fact that Wang An, which specializes in word processing machines, has not made any achievements in the Republic market, but IBM-PC, which is more widely used, has obtained a better development space, which actually shows that the competition of word processing machines is weak.

Tu Zhenying naturally knows what Wang Zhengguo's main focus is on now, this time when she came to the United States, she heard that she was going to visit the famous Chinese computer pioneer, she was quite interested, this is a completely different field from the optical industry, you can see more.

Boston, located in Massachusetts, is the state's capital and the largest city in New England.

Silicon Valley is a high-tech industrial park in the southwest Pacific coastal region of the United States, which represents the future of the semiconductor electronics industry, and is the holy place in the minds of semiconductor electronics practitioners later, however, Silicon Valley in the 80s is not dominant, and the Boston area is also awesome in the semiconductor industry.

As famous as Silicon Valley, the high-tech industrial park must mention Boston Highway 128, built in 1951, about 16 kilometers away from the downtown area of Boston, along the highway on both sides of the gathering of thousands of institutions and companies engaged in high-tech research, development, production, as a high-tech industrial park, here is also a world-renowned electronics industry cluster.

Wang An Computer is the leader of the 128 Highway Industrial Park, and its status in the area is equivalent to that of Fairchild Semiconductor in the 70s to Silicon Valley, both of which are the soul pillars, leading the development of their respective industrial parks for an era.

And historically, Highway 128 was developed even earlier than Silicon Valley, and it is also a semiconductor industry cluster, and Highway 128 before 80 years was more influential than Silicon Valley, that is, after 80 years, it gradually declined, and the reason for this is more or less related to the fall of giants like Wang An Computer, in a sense, the rise and fall of Wang An Computer has also witnessed the rise and fall of Highway 128.

Highway 128 tends to be conservative in terms of cultural model, and the people around it worship big companies but don't pay much attention to small entrepreneurs, which is why when Wang An Computer and Fairchild Semiconductor, two giants representing their respective industrial parks, fell, Highway 128 and Silicon Valley went on different results.

In essence, the cultural gene of Silicon Valley is to advocate entrepreneurship and people pursue the rapidly rising entrepreneurial star, so Silicon Valley can have more fresh blood injected into the huge industrial park, and if a giant falls, there will be latecomers to make up for it, and even many Silicon Valley giants are directly defeated by newcomers from Silicon Valley.

Boston Highway 128 is located in the economically developed northeast of the United States, which is the land of the United States, it is greatly influenced by various traditional cultures and economies, and Silicon Valley in the southwest of the United States has an essential difference in cultural genes, it is inherently unsuitable for the semiconductor and Internet industries.

Boston's cultural genes are not suitable for the semiconductor and Internet industries, which is also the fundamental reason why the famous Facebook was founded in Boston's Highway 128 park, when the company was in full swing, and after the Boston government offered various preferential conditions, it resolutely moved to Silicon Valley.

As an economic and financial center, you have to develop high-tech manufacturing, which is a huge challenge and the root cause of the decline of Highway 128 in the United States.

Unfortunately, this failure continues to play out all over the world, on the other side of the world, on the southeast coast of the Republic, which is also a traditional economic and financial center with roughly the same positioning and history as Boston, but it is also hollowing out the development of industries that should not exist here.
