Chief Engineer Wang Jie, Atari mainframe, he has participated in development. Because I have signed a non-disclosure agreement, I can't reveal the inside story.

However, Wang Jie knows which patent obstacles to avoid. Heaven's host is designed and he knows how to get around. When the results come out, you will never be stuck in the neck.

The design drawings of the host finally passed the demonstration. The others cheered, but Wang Jie, the chief engineer, was still a little worried: "Boss, our game console has canceled the built-in game, can consumers buy it?"

patted the other party on the shoulder, Lin Yi reassured him: "I know, whether it is Fairchild or Atari, there are at least two games built-in." This makes the game console look more valuable. ”

Lin Yi raised his arm, pointed around the scene, and finally pointed to the chief engineer: "No, our engineers are from all over the world." This shows that the international division of labor is becoming more and more sophisticated. ”

"Then the division of labor between technology products and those components in them should also be more refined. Image processing chips, sound processing chips, these professional design, is our leading guarantee. ”

Lin Yi smiled confidently: "Games and game consoles are completely separated, and the same is true! As for how to sell them, that's a matter for the sales department." ”

After comforting the chief engineer, everything in Singapore was handed over to Xiao Daiming to be responsible, and Lin Yi set off for the United States.

To meet the new wife, of course, is a must. But he has great ambitions, and he will not only have children and daughters. The main purpose of this trip is to visit Intel and negotiate chip contracts.

A home entertainment paradise, a brand new video game console, the 'heart' must be specially made. The general-purpose type on the market cannot be used directly. But the chip transformation, Lin Yi can't do it himself!

And this sub-project is the core of R&D. The production line of the special core must be won in the early stage, and the grinding gun is not rushed!

But there is a problem, after six years of development, Intel has become the hegemon in the chip industry. So Lin Yi's appointment was scheduled for a month later!

"By that time, the daylily will be cold!"

Hearing the boss's complaints, Xiao Daiming, the R&D director, took the initiative to take over the burden. Because of the teacher's relationship, he has a slight surface over there.

However, after asking, I could only helplessly inform: "Your appointment time has only been shortened to one week." It will be three weeks before I can be received by the president!"

Atari's new console, Fairchild's improved version, competitors, are rushing forward quickly. And Lin Yi's game console, if it can be released first, it will have a big advantage in marketing.

"We're going to race against time!" Lin Yi finished speaking, sent the director away, and thought alone.

Appointments, negotiations, and retrofitting of the production line all take time. If you don't want to wait, you must directly impress the other party in terms of interests.

Meditate hard, but to no avail. He turned on the TV and wanted to change his mind: "As of last night, the size of the world's population exceeded the 4 billion mark! At the same time, the food problem is getting worse and worse, and 2 billion people are still hungry. The first thing they think of when they wake up every day is how to fill their bellies!"

Lin Yi struck each other with both hands, and suddenly understood that a big number was easier to attract attention.

He picked up the phone and dialed Intel: "Please tell Mr. President, in the next two years, Paradise Games Company will place an order for a special chip of at least 3 million pieces!"

After saying this number, Lin Yi hung up the phone. What he means, the other party must be able to understand.

Since the beginning of this year, Dow Jones and Standard & Poor's are recovering rapidly. And the NASDAQ, it's still a cold wave. Intel is listed here, of course, and needs fuel for heating.

3 million chips, enough for several production lines, insist on operating at full capacity. And the total amount of the contract, at least $50 million, how can it not be tempted?

Lin Yi was not bad, and in just an hour, the other party called back: "Your appointment time has been changed to three days later." In the meantime, I wish you all the best for your transoceanic flight!"

Even the tone changed, so when he put down the phone, Lin Yi was excited. The super elite and the tech giants, because of his words, can now change their minds! And he has a deeper understanding of the supremacy of interests and the business principles of the United States.

The excitement had to be paused, and it would take a day to fly across the ocean, so time was very tight. Paid five times the price and got a reserved seat. Lin Yi packed his luggage and hurried to the airport.

When he returned to his home in Silicon Valley, after greeting him affectionately, he didn't even have warmth, and he fell asleep with jet lag.

On the morning of the third day, I woke up in good spirits. After tasting his wife's blessed kiss, Lin Yi drove to Intel.

"Fortunately, it's all in Silicon Valley, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch up!" Lin Yi whistled and walked into Intel. The pace is very brisk, because the victory is already in hand.

The introduction of the 8080 processor made Intel a great success. It's a pity that the developer Fei Jin left in anger to start Zilog and compete with his old club. And the other side's European plan is also not going well.

However, the executive vice president who received him, when he met, there was no expectation on his face, but he came to the bottom of the horse: "According to my survey, the total number of home game consoles in the current American market does not exceed 3 million units! So, where is the sincerity of the order of 3 million chips?"

To want a special chip, the plan of Paradise Games, must be properly revealed. Otherwise, the two sides will not be able to work together at all.

Fortunately, the questioning lion opened his mouth, which was expected by Lin Yi. Anyone can brag, the key is sincerity. Lin Yi didn't reply, as if taking a leisurely stroll, he slowly took out a document and gently put it on the opposite table.

10% deposit, long-term contract, priority procurement, tangible benefits, immediately impressed the other party. Moreover, from this contract, Lin Yi's self-confidence can also be seen. There is no confidence in the market, and such conditions cannot be given.

The vice president passed, and Lin Yi followed him into the president's office.

"Mr. Moore, it's a pleasure to meet you. Moore's Law, I've admired the name for a long time!" Lin Yi controlled his expression, showing appropriate admiration.

"Mr. Lin is in Paradise Company and has released two star games. Now this part of Silicon Valley has become famous. ”

President of Moore, Fairchild, Intel, founder of both companies. There is no assistant aggressiveness, but the character of a scientist.

The two had a good conversation, and when Lin Yi went downstairs, he also visited Intel's headquarters.

While accompanied, the vice president introduced to the guests: "The office has removed the cubicles and eliminated the concept of hierarchy, which is our first initiative. ”

Lin Yi walked out of the door, full of ambition and high spirits, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "In a few years, when I become a shareholder of Intel, whether it is the president or the chairman, I will see you when I want!"
