Chapter 47: The United States Blows the Chinese Wind (3)

“…… Lee, you're so powerful that you even thought of this! However, the game is selling so well, when will the next batch of game base versions arrive? ”

"I can give you a copy of the game, and even the technology of the base version can be licensed to you to produce. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info In addition to the Phoenix Nest 1 chip, other parts can be found in the United States. Li Feng said, "You can find someone to produce the base plate yourself, and you will be charged $500 in copyright fees for each piece." In addition, the Phoenix Nest 1 chip is also $500 a piece. Currently, I have 5000 chips here. If you want, you can pay the royalties together, $5 million! ”

The chip sells for $500 a piece, and of course the thief is black.

In fact, the cost of domestic production is about 50 US dollars a piece, and the cost will become cheaper and cheaper over time.

As for the copyright fee for the sale of the game, for the time being, he is not afraid that John will copy it privately and conceal the real sales volume. Because, these game programs can only run on the substrate of the phoenix nest chip at present. Therefore, the sales of games are directly consistent with the sales of chips.

"Even if there are 5,000 chips, making 5,000 game base plates is still too little." John said regretfully, "Can we increase the supply of chips?" ”

"Then you need to place an order in advance!" Li Feng said, "China's chip production capacity is very limited. If there can be more profitable pre-ordered orders on the U.S. side, it will naturally supply a large part of the chip to the U.S. market. Otherwise, our domestic chips themselves will not be enough, and there is no reason to export them. ”

John thought about it and asked, "How much is the deposit?" ”

"A $50 deposit is enough." Li Feng said generously.

$50 is the cost price, if the United States orders and doesn't want it, then you're welcome, the chip is kept in the country, and the deposit does not have to be returned.

"Okay, then I'll order another 20,000 chips!" John was also a man of great courage.

Well, in order to get rich! Because, he knows how popular this batch of Chinese games is in the American market.

……

The arcade game was exported to the United States, and soon even the number one chief knew about it.

Next, the No. 1 chief approved that the introduction of semiconductor-related equipment and technology in the U.S. equipment procurement was increased to $8 billion. It has become the most correct industry for technology imports in the whole republic.

Even though the Americans continue to strictly guard against the flow of the most advanced technology into China, China does not want the most advanced technology at present.

It's about solving the problem of whether there is or is a capacity gap.

Even if it has lagged behind the production capacity for five or six years, the country is still willing to import. Just to save time and get production up faster!

After the generation is up, it is natural to cultivate a large number of related industry talents. A large number of talents entered, with the accumulation of time, the technical level will naturally continue to improve, and gradually be able to do fine!

Because, technological progress is often the accumulation and improvement of countless ordinary workers in the industry, bit by bit. With the accumulation of quantity, a qualitative transformation eventually occurs.

If the semiconductor industry wants to develop well, the key is not how many advanced laboratories there are, but more importantly, how much production capacity!

Many technological innovations are not made in the laboratory at all, but are discovered and innovated bit by bit in the production process.

To put it simply, industry and technology are places where there are deficiencies first, you can learn to go to the cottage first, copy and copy and copy gradually the technology is getting better and better, and there is no need to copy. With the development of time, countries with a certain foundation are mainly willing to work hard for development, and most of them can be carried out.

What can't be copied is football!

Industry and technology are not football, once hundreds of thousands of people, millions of people are pouring into this industry, even if the other party hides and does not tell you, but so many people are mixed in this industry, sooner or later from the lowest end, all the way to the highest end.

Even technologies such as atomic bombs, missiles, and satellites, who will really help other countries to engage in these truly cutting-edge technologies. But hasn't China come up with nuclear weapons, rockets, and satellites? This is because, as long as you are willing to do it, invest a lot of relevant talents, and there are more people, sooner or later the key technologies will be tackled.

At present, there is indeed a gap between China's semiconductors and the United States, but it is not a foundationless industry.

After all, in the 50s, China had already begun to study integrated circuits, and compared with its international counterparts, it was not much behind. It's just that China is only a laboratory research, and it has not formed a huge market. Therefore, it is to burn money all the way to follow-up, but after burning money, it continues to burn money, but does not obtain output and profits, and eventually it will be unable to keep up with the development of international technology because the funds are unsustainable.

If the market is used to feed talents, it is natural to support more talents to engage in this industry for a long time and promote technological progress, and there is no need to burn money purely for research, but to invest in research in order to obtain profits and the market, which is sustainable development.

At present, China's semiconductor industry has gradually set things right, focusing on the consumer market, and the consumer market has earned a lot of capital, which naturally promotes the development of the industry. With the continuous development of industrial technology and production capacity, the military industry and the science and technology industry can naturally share the fruits of industrial development.

In mid-November, 1981, the U.S.-China economic agreement was nearing its end.

Li Feng's trip to the United States is also coming to an end. However, before leaving, John, the boss of the Northern Lights, kept coming to the door to ask for cooperation.

There is no way, Li Feng can't conjure up chips and game base versions, so he threw John a series of other products such as animation products "Transformers" and "4WD Kid......

Ordinary anime, the market value is very average, even if it is a hit on TV, so what? The copyright fee of the anime can't be sold for a few bucks.

The key is to look at the value of the derivatives of the anime!

Needless to say, "Transformers" naturally earned popularity from its anime broadcasts, mainly to promote Transformers toys. The same logic is true of "4WD Kid", which can be used to sell 4WD cars.

"Now, the anime copyright is free for you, but you have to register all kinds of copyrights and patents for "Transformers" and "4WD Kid". Li Feng said, "I expect that the toy peripheral products of these two works will sell like crazy!"

John, who tasted the sweetness, was naturally very hard-working, ready to sell his anime rights to the mainstream TV media in the United States.

At the same time, John also won the exclusive North American distribution rights of Transformers toys and four-wheel drive toys.

For those toys, after Li Feng's transatlantic phone call, China has begun to organize manpower to set up a toy production line within half a month. In the next few months, it is planned to produce 500,000 Transformers toys, as well as electric four-wheel drive toys.

The production cost of these toys is naturally negligible.

However, the selling price is definitely not cheap, and it is planned to cost upwards of $50 in North America. So, this business was done, and it was another business of more than 25 million dollars.

Moreover, these toys are still very strong, and it is expected that they can fight for at least another ten or twenty years!

The annual sales are conservatively estimated at $100 million, and the potential for sales is $1 billion in 10 years. This is still a conservative estimate, according to the data of other worlds, "Transformers" can fight for another few decades, and the cumulative sales of its toys can reach more than 20 billion US dollars! At its most glorious time, Disney also salivated over Transformers! (To be continued.) )
