Because of the great leadership of the wise Tang IT, lithium-ion batteries and LCDs are developing rapidly in the right direction and have been commercialized on a large scale for some time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

This makes laptops, portable_puter that would not work without an external power supply, take a step forward; At the same time, display technologies such as ELDs – electroluminescent displays – have been replaced by more high-performance LCDs – liquid crystal displays.

Eventually, the laptop_puter laptop, the laptop, as it is more commonly notebook_puter called in Greater China, was fully formed.

This kind of portable personal computer, which weighs less than 5 kg, is mainly for commercial use, and it is very popular, which can be called a common trend.

It must be admitted that Baodao is very efficient in high-tech - seeing this situation, Baodao Industrial Technology Research Institute immediately convened nearly 50 manufacturers on the island to form a "laptop alliance" to establish an industrial division of labor system and take the global manufacturing base of notebook computers as the goal.

Tang Huan's arrival coincided with this general trend, and it took a lot of effort to deal with the officials who had been replaced several times in just a few years.

The reason why it is so busy is that Guy Treasure Island can get a large number of orders from the IT kingdom of Tang's richest man, and grow up from this - from 1979 when Tang Huan invested in the construction of a manufacturing base on Treasure Island, and now more than ten years, the development results achieved also prove this.

In the beginning, Tang Huan set up a factory in Hsinchu Science and Technology Park, producing most of the hardware; Slowly, the entire supply chain has been driven, which has led to the maturity of original_equipment_manufacturer OEMs, that is, OEMs.

For example, this model, also commonly known as contract manufacturing and contract manufacturing, developed to the point that some manufacturers had the ability to produce final products such as monitors and printers, so that they could be supplied to other buyers in addition to Fangyuan Computer Company.

This is not the end, with the digestion of the technology obtained from Tang Huan, some stronger companies also have the ability to design their own, forming a original_design_manufacturer-original design manufacturer, that is, ODM model.

In this way, the range of orders that such manufacturers can receive is wider.

For example, those enterprises that have entered the personal computer industry across fields, after obtaining the authorization of Fangyuan personal computer compatible machines, can be the purchaser, entrust the manufacturers on the treasure island, from the design to the production place, and then label the final product with the purchaser's own trademark and sell it on the market.

Because everyone is very optimistic about the current personal computer market, after OEM and ODM, another model has been born, original_brand_manufacturer - private label production, that is, OBM.

In other words, the Baodao manufacturers with further technical strength are no longer willing to only play the role of commissioned manufacturing and OEM production, but have begun to create their own brands, independently ~ complete design, procurement, production, and finally use this brand to carry out marketing.

I have to say that the way of survival in the IT circle now is dazzling.

But there is one thing, that is, no matter how the gameplay changes, Tang Huan's philosophers and Fang Yuan always hold the power of life and death from the levels of standards, technology, authorization, software, hardware, etc., and no one else can rebel.

At the meeting of Tang Huan and the high-tech industry community of Baodao, this power was reflected - what Acer, Hon Hai, MSI, Gigabyte, Hongshuo...... He is either a junior brother, or a disciple and a grandson.

In his speech, Tang Huan quoted the analysis data of his own think tank and said: "By the end of this century, the global annual sales of personal computers are expected to exceed 100 million units, that is, from now on, an average of 10 million units per year." ”

"In addition to commercial use, personal computers will also be more into the home, like color televisions. Globally, the UK and RB have the highest home computer penetration rates, close to 10 percent. ”

"Baodao is optimistic about the emerging laptop market, and I have to praise it with admiration for the 'accurate vision' - with the general trend of economic globalization, people will spend more and more time on business trips, and a laptop that can be carried and worked with them is almost a must-have."

……

What is an industry leader? That is, his words are full of gold.

None of the people present and listening doubted Tang Huan's judgment, and they all combined their specific situation and desperately analyzed the business opportunities contained in it.

After the meeting, Tang Huan attended a landmark ceremony - the Internet on the treasure island and the Internet in the United States on the other side of the Pacific Ocean were officially interconnected.

Next, Mr. The richest man also personally cheered for the listing of Popular Computer - the technology company founded by Wang Xueling and Jian Mingren, Zheru Baodao Company and Tang Huan, also have important shares in it, and it can be regarded as busy for himself.

With the backing of Mr. the richest man and Formosa Plastics Group, it is conceivable how smoothly the development of Volkswagen Computer Company in Baodao was 1,998 yuan on the first day, breaking the record of 1,975 yuan per share of Cathay Life Insurance the year before last.

Taiwan's stock market can't be blamed for being capricious - you know, on Monday, February 12 last year, it hit an all-time high with a daily volume of 216 billion yuan; Then it took about a year to squeeze out the bubble and plummet by more than 10,000 points, which was definitely an unprecedented and tragic stock market crash; Then it was adjusted for more than half a year, and the points recovered somewhat; By now, investors who understand what value investing is are clearly placing their hopes on Popular Computer.

In Tang Huan's view, this is the practice of smart people. Although the bubble burst of the Baodao stock market has taught a lesson to the poor speculators who have been cut the wool, and the environment has cooled down, the overall mechanism of the Baodao stock market is still not sound, and one manifestation is that it is sensitive to policy changes.

The arrogance of the Baodao stock market is also a microcosm of the financial reform of Baodao in recent years.

After the outbreak of the "Ten Letters Case," the banking sector in Baodao has been greatly adjusted, and the most obvious feature is the implementation of the liberalization of interest rates~, the restructuring of some investment trust companies into commercial banks, and the liberalization of the operation of private banks.

For example, on July 13 of the previous year, Hongyuan Group, the leader of the underground investment company in Baodao, announced the temporary suspension of withdrawals due to a run on a large number of investors, which led to the Baodao stock market, which was in the stage of a big bull market at that time, fell by 320 points on the same day.

In other words, private financial companies such as Baodao, which are difficult to supervise, urgently need an opportunity to move from the underground to the table.

In fact, at this stage, in the two "Asian tigers" of Baodao and South Korea, compared with the seemingly hot stock speculation, the most secure and shrewd investment direction should be real estate, which is very different from RB.

In short, a real carnivore has long been fed.

And the reason why Volkswagen Computer chose to go public in this turbulent time is because of the need for further development.

In recent years, the New Taiwan dollar has appreciated significantly against the US dollar, from 38:1 to about 27.5:1 this year, which is a big blow to the island's economy, which originally relied on exports to the United States.

Just this year, the official end of the hostile state of the island against the mainland, which pointed out what direction the island's economic development pointed out, it is self-evident -- after the popular computer company becomes a listed company, it will step into the mainland this year.

……

After dealing with such official matters, Tang Huan asked about the operation of the family's funds in Baodao again, and then prepared to go to RB, which had opened the curtain of the "Lost Decade", to take a look - some real estate investments there will not be sold, and if they wait until next year, they will really rot in their hands.

At this time, Cao Xingcheng, chairman of UMC, came over and said that he had prepared a private party for the richest man, which was practiced.

Tang Huan laughed - what is there to give, everyone is not uncontacted on weekdays!

Mr. The richest man understands very well that Cao Xingcheng is doing public relations for the technology of 200 millimeters, that is, 8-inch wafers in his hands.

You know, one of the meanings of Moore's Law - "the number of circuits integrated on integrated circuit chips doubles every 18 months", mainly depends on the improvement of the process, which is almost every three to four years, a step forward.

This technological innovation will naturally improve production efficiency and increase operating profits.

There is also a similar way to achieve a similar effect, which is to increase the diameter of the wafer being processed – obviously, the longer the diameter, the larger the area, and the number of chips that can be cut at one time.

However, compared with the upgrading of the process, the wafer area is not so easy to expand, and its research and development cycle often takes ten years - the latest technological achievement is the 8-inch wafer.

This phenomenon is also easy to understand, and it is still the metaphor of carving patterns on radishes - the improvement of knife skills is relatively simple, but the improvement of varieties that make radishes bigger must be complicated and protracted.

At this stage, the competition between UMC and TSMC, under the hype of the media, especially the actual conflict of interest, has become like fire and water - the latter has the secret support of the official son of Baodao, Cao Xingcheng naturally has to find his own way.

Tang Shoufu didn't care about sending the world's most advanced 8-inch wafer technology in his hands to UMC, which has a long-term relationship with him, but he was worried about whether the other party had the ability to digest - first of all, was the silver prepared?

The location chosen by Cao Xingcheng is a private clubhouse.

Tang Huan looked at the signboard, and vaguely remembered that the Tang family's fund also had shares here - no way, even though Mr. The richest man was very strong in terms of memory, but this kind of small investment was only equivalent to a byte in the hard disk, which was too inconspicuous!

"It's a familiar and quiet environment." Cao Xingcheng explained enthusiastically.

"The decoration looks like a lot of work." Tang Huan nodded and sat down in the center casually.

"The tea art with local characteristics of the treasure island here is very famous." Cao Xingcheng recommended it to his liking.

"Whatever the guest wants." Tang Huan waved his hand.

Cao Xingcheng clapped his hands, and a tall young woman walked in.

The richest man with his eyes couldn't help laughing: "It looks like a model." ”

"Mr. Tang's eyes are like torches." Cao Xingcheng gave a thumbs up in admiration, "Her main job is modeling." ”

There are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, and everyone knows it tacitly - so, the richest man looked at this woman's extraordinarily pretty face with interest, and it seemed a little familiar, but he couldn't remember which star it was in the original time and space.

Just when Tang Huan began to suspect that he was thinking too much, Cao Xingcheng urged: "Xiao Xiao, don't hurry up and introduce yourself to Boss Tang." ”

Listening to the other party say solemnly, "Hello Boss Tang, my name is Xiao Qiang, I started to enter the modeling industry the year before, and I usually like to study tea art, so I dare to show ugliness in front of you", Mr. The richest man who finally reacted, almost blurted out, "The years are really a pig-killing knife!" ”

"Miss Xiao doesn't have to be modest, she must be outstanding if she can be invited by Boss Cao." Tang Huan smiled and encouraged.

"Mr. Tang is an elegant person, just the tea entertaining, it is inevitable that it is still a little simpler, and I have prepared music." Cao Xingcheng recommended again.

Tang Huan laughed, "Lao Cao, you're too enthusiastic, don't you need to be so troublesome?" With your friendship with me, there are some out-of-the-box differences. ”

Cao Xingcheng, who was smiling and silent, high-fived again, and a girl next door who looked two years younger than Xiao Qiang walked in quietly and shyly with a tray of delicate pastries.

The richest man again said without rubbing the sand, "This young lady looks like a typhoon. ”

Without Cao Xingcheng's gesture, he introduced himself softly: "Hello Boss Tang, my name is Su Huilun, my job is a singer, I usually like to go to the kitchen by myself, this time I made some pastries, please taste them." ”

Cao Xingcheng added on the side: "Don't look at Tarcy only entered the music scene last year, but she has been named 'Jade Girl Head' and 'Student Love~People', and her popularity is quite high." ”

Tang Huan smiled and bowed slightly, and couldn't help but say in his heart, "The entertainment industry in Baodao is really getting more and more chaotic." ”

Cao Xingcheng leaned over, pointed to the crystal clear grapes in the fruit bowl, and whispered: "Mr. Tang, don't worry, they are all fresh and tender, and it will definitely not affect the taste." ”

The richest man said earnestly: "Lao Cao, you think I'm not busy enough, just talk about things if you have something, what are you doing with these tricks......" (To be continued.) )
