Chapter 84: A Conversation with Kylo (2)
Although,The capacity of the game package has become larger,But there is no additional increase in hardware costs,Previously limited by the limitation of the image processing chip,All game packages are limited to4K,And the storage capacity of a ROM memory chip is at least 10K,In this case,Excess 6K content,Shielded by technical means。 Pen?

However, this kind of design concept that is very advanced in Ye Kai's eyes, and it is also the design concept of Nintendo's success in breaking the ice in the United States in the previous life, but it is not favored by Bushnell, his reason is very simple, the current popular games, do not need to display such a clear picture and complex colors at all, which means that more game developers need to be invested, as well as increase the difficulty of their work, resulting in additional capital investment.
Bushnell, who has been solidified in his mind, has become accustomed to developing "fool-like" games with simple game content, fixed scenes, two players comparing points with each other to determine the winner, or the gamer competing with the game console, constantly adding points on the screen to indicate the player's achievements and results.
Such a game may be attractive in the short term, but under the impact of long-term inferior games, gamers will quickly become tired and resistant to this kind of cookie-cutter game.
Although Bushnell is the founder of the family game console, he has not seen through the rigid mind of the future trend, and does not attach much importance to Carey's game console chip department, and the capital investment is not only short, but also often in arrears. So it's no surprise that the seemingly simplest game chip design process is lagging behind computer chips.
"Kairo, I think you have a good idea." Ye Kai, who knew that the unenterprising Atari would soon disappear and be replaced by Nintendo, was full of sincere admiration for Kairo. "I am very optimistic about this project, and I will also invest funds as soon as possible, and you can also increase the number of people yourself to design these two chips as soon as possible. At the same time, the game development platform is also carried out at the same time, which is convenient for the overall test after the chip is taped out! ”
"The game development platform should be different from the current platform, because the games running on this platform will be games with a certain storyline and can change the game scene with the control of the gamer."
"Boss, your idea is astonishing." Cairo was a little confused when he heard this. But what does such a game look like? I don't quite understand, boss, can you explain it for me? ”
"To put it simply, the game of this platform is to imagine that the character manipulated by the player accepts a certain task, such as attacking a fortress, rescuing a victim, or finding a treasure, etc." Ye Kai explained. "The place to complete the mission can be land, sea or air, and the enemy can be fought with a variety of weapons or with bare hands, in the constantly rolling background picture, up, down, left, right, or in the three-dimensional picture to attack in depth, constantly overcome obstacles, dodge the enemy's attacks in all directions, and take the initiative to destroy the enemy."
"Boss, your idea is fantastic." After constantly simulating the new gameplay of the game that Ye Kai said in his mind, he was shocked. "I just imagined this kind of game in my mind, and I felt like I was there, and I believe that once such a game appears, it will definitely make countless people fascinated!"
Ye Kai nodded approvingly and said: "I'm going to let you be in charge of these two departments, and at the same time be responsible for the software and hardware development of the game console, of course, the game content is not in this department, what do you think?" ”
"Boss, I'm honored." When Kairo heard the news, he didn't show too obvious excitement, but his slightly trembling lips betrayed his mood. "Thank you also for the trust my boss has placed in me."
"Besides, I have an idea I want to discuss with you." Ye Kai, who had a very smooth communication, was very happy, because this person is a treasure, and he is a valuable talent who can make Ye Kai's company have a valuable talent to replace the status of Intel in the previous life, and such a talent can stay by Ye Kai's side, which is like a tiger with wings! Therefore, Ye Kai decided to strike while the iron was hot and strive to solve all the problems at one time. "I want to relocate the department you are responsible for to Asia or Hong Kong, and the wafer factory will also be set up in Asia in the future, are you willing to leave the United States?"
Hearing Ye Kai's proposal, Kailuo was silent, at this time he thought a lot, thought of his hometown, and also thought of his younger brother and sister, they were all working hard to restore their former glory, and most of the money they had earned over the years was mailed back to their hometown, and they were carrying out their meager efforts for the continuation of the family's research institutions.
I don't like machinery, I only like to study chips, and I have a natural love and intimacy for this silicon-based chip that will shine in the light. It is this kind of love and intimacy that I put all my energy into it, hoping that I can get ahead in this industry! Able to contribute to research institutions that are struggling financially.
And his elders also tried to bring their family business back to life through various means and external forces, but unfortunately failed twice, making the family, which was already losing blood and blood, even worse, and kept selling the latest technology of research institutions to the outside world.
Now, the Audi 100 series, which sells well in Germany, has purchased the C-series platform developed by their family, but what does Audi's official profile say? They say that Audi, which has just been acquired by Volkswagen, has developed the Audi 100 series on the C1 platform of the mid-level model!
If Audi had such strong R&D capabilities, would it still be acquired by Volkswagen to avoid bankruptcy? And with such a popular platform, won't the public themselves use it?
And now, in order to make Audi famous in the world, Volkswagen has also taken a fancy to the new four-wheel drive technology of its own research institute, and is ready to acquire this technology and achieve a good ranking on the track. You must know that the sports car produced by their family was on the track at that time, and it was called the "track duo" along with Porsche.
It's a pity that such an awesome car family has declined like this!
Kai Luo was silent for a long time, and under Ye Kai's gaze, he slowly spoke: "Boss, in fact, where the project I am responsible for is relocated, it makes no difference to me. However, I have a request if the boss can lend a helping hand if he can. If, if you can, I, Kailuo, will serve the company for life! ”
"Kailuo, I hope that when I work, you and I have a relationship between my boss and my subordinates." Ye Kai looked at Kailuo's unnatural expression and smiled gently. "But, in private, I wish we were friends. Since we are friends, if you encounter any difficulties, I am happy to listen to you, and I am willing to lend a helping hand if I can! ”
"Thank you." Cairo said in a low voice, beginning to talk about the difficulties he was experiencing.
