Chapter 95 (Overhauled, please collect it first, and read it later)

The delegation of Paradise Games has been in Asia for nearly a month. Phelan was so meticulous in his investigation that it took so long for the second report to be returned.

Heung Kong advocates freedom in everything, and corporate behavior relies mostly on self-discipline, which seems to be the government's inaction. So although Phelan was born in Hong Kong, he is obviously not satisfied with the environmental protection there.

Phelan's thoughts, Lin Yi can understand.

As far as the industry he has been exposed to, the Hong Kong comic industry, because of excessive pornography and violence, introduced the "Bad Publications Act", but in order to compete for the market, there are still a lot of margins.

The financial industry is even more obvious, although the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Office has promulgated the "Securities Legislation" and the "Investor Protection Ordinance", but due to the lack of implementation, there is a toothless tiger feeling.

Therefore, the solution for the new factory was set in Singapore, which is smaller than Hong Kong.

"Although Li Jiapo is authoritarian, he is indeed prescient when it comes to environmental policy. Sing Tao's industrial planning is well done. I can already foresee the elimination of polluting enterprises!"

This was Fei Lan's original words, Lin Yi pondered for a long time, and felt that his views were contradictory and interesting.

Phelan lived in the United States for ten years, when the civil rights movement in the United States was at its peak, so freedom and democracy were deeply rooted in his heart. From his attitude towards the freedom of marriage, Lin Yi can see it.

Phelan has ambivalent views of Singapore. But the end result of the psychological struggle is that environmental protection defeats freedom. It seems that this is a real environmental fighter!

The budget plan for the new factory has been made by the inspection team. Although Lin Yi believes in Ferran, in order to formalize management, the company's procedures must be followed.

After the plan was faxed back, Lin Yi convened the staff, conducted a brief review, and then signed and approved the grant.

In 73 years, Malaysia already had a chip factory. Singapore, which is more planned, certainly has a better foundation in the electronics industry.

All raw materials for the arcade factory, even semi-finished components, can be supplied locally.

Because electronics-related enterprises are concentrated in high-tech industrial zones. So the matter of the collaborative factory is very easy to solve.

After only one meeting, Phelan finalized the supply of raw materials.

The efficiency of work over there is not inferior to the speed of Shenzhen in later generations. Not only three links and one level, but even the factory building, the government has built it in advance.

Through auction, Phelan bought a new factory. In order to improve efficiency, even gaming motherboards are no longer produced in-house, but prefabricated by order.

According to the estimation of the inspection team, it only takes two or three weeks for the arcade machine assembly plant to be completed and put into production! Lin Yi really has no beak for this kind of rocket speed!

During this trip to Asia, RB and Singapore each set up a new factory. Although the factory site did not choose Hong Kong, the headquarters of the new company was located here.

Lin Yi's investment scope has spanned several countries. The tax rates of these countries, of course, need to be clarified. RB averages 21%, Hong Kong 16%, and Singapore is somewhere in between.

Of course, Lin Yi has to try to avoid the tax hell in the United States, so he has to set up a new company in Asia. RB and Sing Tao factories were merged into the new enterprise.

In 1947, Hong Kong enacted the "Inland Revenue Ordinance", the basic spirit of which was to "emphasize stable income and ignore economic regulation", so as to build Hong Kong into an "investor's paradise".

In other words, unlike the U.S. government, Hong Kong's tax policy does not impose heavy taxes on the rich in order to adjust the gap between the rich and the poor.

Lin Yi studied it carefully and found that here in Hong Kong, the only thing that has a significant impact on his income is 'profits tax'.

Not only does it avoid double taxation, but the tax rate is not high, which is really worthy of the name of paradise!

========= dividing line =========

In Singapore, only an assembly plant has been built, so the investment is very small. The RB branch has not yet been negotiated, and there is no need for funding for the time being.

But Paradise Games, in one more week, the third month's profit, is going to be credited again. Money lying on the account will not give birth, Lin Yi must find a place for them.

His new target, aimed at home consoles. Childhood memories of previous lives, this thing accounts for a large proportion. Although it was a bit of a plaything, it was really fun back then!

What's more, from the perspective of the market, the boss of the rival Atari - Nolan Bushnell, is now the object of affection, no longer an arcade machine, but a family game machine.

Paradise Games sprung up, but Atari didn't react. Therefore, Lin Yi speculated: The huge profits of home machines are ahead, and the small profits of arcade machines may no longer be eye-catching.

Tracking the market behavior of your opponents is a must-do for a qualified business. Atari is not only a rival, but an industry leader!

Walking into the company's game room again, this time Lin Yi did not come empty-handed, but took the trial report - understanding the thoughts of the residents of this time and space can make his analysis more objective.

THE HOME CONSOLES IN FRONT OF ME ARE LISTED BY RELEASE TIME: ODYSSEY, ELECTRO TENNIS, ATARI HOME PONG.

The only thing missing is the earliest one, the prototype built by Bell in 1969. However, Lin Yi has already bought its patent.

The Odyssey is not an Atari product, but it was the first to be launched and is the originator of the commercialization of home game consoles. It has replaceable backdrops and also comes with a light gun and toy banknotes.

However, due to cost considerations, the inability to output color and sound, coupled with the lack of publicity, soon it was miserable.

DURING THE EXPEDITION'S RB TRIP, PHELAN DISCOVERED ELECTRO TENNIS, AND THEN SENT SAMPLES TO LIN YI. It is said that this is RB's first home game console, and it costs 19,500 yen.

This is a tennis game, which should be inspired by "Table Tennis", and the RB people preempted Atari to let the game console land in the family, but the release scope is limited to RB.

Now in the home machine market, the most successful is still Atari. Although this HOME PONG has only one table tennis game, it is said that 100,000 units were sold on the first day of release!

Due to the huge success of Atari last Christmas, this year, there are countless imitations of HOME PONG!

The market competition is endless, and Atari quickly fought back, turning a TV show "Big Mouth" into "Gluttonous". Because there is no fighting, it is very popular with little girls.

Lin Yi recalled that the later generations of "Bubble Hall" and "QQ Xuanwu" also targeted the female consumer market.

The report reads: This is a tape, not a cassette. And Atari improved the console, with a dedicated microprocessor, which made the colors and music richer.

What's more, just like a tape recorder, game tapes can be replaced at will, and when Lin Yi saw this, he knew that Atari's cassette game console had a clear goal to launch.

However, other manufacturers are not vegetarian either. The market research department sent the news that Fairchild's cassette game console will be on sale in August!

The cassette home game console, the world's number one laurel, has belonged to Atari. And the crown of cassette game consoles will be taken away by Fairchild this time.

I don't know when, Lin Yi will also be able to enter the trial to try it?

He was alone in the empty playroom. But standing there alone, looking at the few game consoles in front of him, Lin Yi felt as if he was on the battlefield.

The market is like a battlefield, and the fierceness of competition is really dizzying. So Lin Yi decided to watch from the wall for the time being. Looking at Atari's next move, how will it go?
