Chapter 334 Occupy the U.S. Market

I thought that this display would be too late to use even if it was developed, but it just cultivated the research and development capabilities of Ye Zhendong and others, so that they accumulated relevant design experience, but I didn't expect them to transform it so quickly, and they really used it.

Looking at the TV set in front of him that could display English letters, Guo Zhuocheng couldn't help but feel "annoyed": "Cao, I knew that these guys were modifying so quickly, so I should have arranged for them to modify it as soon as possible." With it and the keyboard, I can save so much time and die so many brain cells when programming. ”

Encouraged by Ye Zhendong and others, Guo Zhuocheng also threw down what he was doing and happily participated in the programming of the connection program between the monitor and the computer. Although it can be displayed, it is not ready to be installed, and you have to write drivers and work out how the display works.

When the TV shows all the characters in its entirety, and can display the cursor and the simple graphics that are designed, Guo and others are happy.

Of course, Guo Zhuocheng is the happiest, because he has learned from these simple graphics to mountains of gold: family game consoles!

A few years ago, the Americans invented arcade machines, which caused a frenzy in Western countries and Japan, and due to their lack of functionality, their content was simple blocks and cursors. Now, as long as Guo is willing, he can develop similar products, and he can plagiarize a few simple arcade games that will only appear in the future, so as to compete with American and Japanese game console manufacturers.

With a monitor and a keyboard installed, Guo Zhuocheng's speed of programming has soared a lot. Although the TV is a little unaccustomed to using as a monitor, and the DJS0 minicomputer works unsteadily, it crashes from time to time, which makes him eager to go up and smash this bulky thing into garbage with a punch, but anyway, the efficiency is much faster than before, at least the very cumbersome paper tape punching link in the middle is omitted.

Guo Zhuocheng was only a little show in this modification, but the ability he showed was enough to surprise the leaders of the research and development team, and the people who still doubted his technical level quickly stopped. The incidental benefit is that these experts and professors are no longer so resistant to Guo Zhuocheng's indulgence in game programming, most of them acquiesce to his "nonsense", and a few people who oppose it have begun to turn a blind eye and no longer look for opportunities to remind Guo Zhuocheng to concentrate a little.

Guo couldn't have imagined that this monitor would not only save a lot of time and energy, but also save him so much trouble.

After laughing secretly a few times, he simply devoted most of his energy to game programming, and divided most of the work in his hands, leaving Professor Su Guangsheng and others busy.

Professor Su and others already have a lot of work, but now they have been increased by Guo Zhuocheng, and the time is even more insufficient, and the time is getting closer and closer to the start of the fall semester, the Department of Computer Science will recruit new students from all over the country, and the professional preparations are also complicated.

Guo Zhuocheng was also happy, and he came according to his heart.

Time passed quickly, but the development progress of the computer development team was even faster. With Guo Zhuocheng, a reborn person, with his understanding of computers in his previous life, especially his familiarity with Z0 chips, the development of computers did not take any detours, and also greatly helped other developers to make their progress rapid.

Of course, this kind of speed is relative to other developers, because people are moving forward in groping, just like walking on a rugged mountain road in the dark, while Guo Zhuocheng and their research and development team are walking on a wide, straight road, and the speed between those who have street lights is incomparable.

When Jenny commissioned her son Jack to purchase the components, circuit boards, and some functional boards to be flown to Yunnan University, the design work was over. They were immediately put to use, and soon they were soldered, debugged, and burned into programs.

As with the "HY-Artillery Command and Auxiliary System," the design of the computer's appearance was mainly carried out by Guo Zhuocheng. He almost completely copied the shape design of the desktop computer in his previous life, installed the computer motherboard vertically, placed the power supply on the top, and the front panel had a rounded texture, which not only solved the heat dissipation problem of the machine well, but also gave people a feeling of lightness and liveliness.

To Guo Zhuocheng's dismay, almost all experts oppose the design of the computer in this way, and they all feel that if it is produced according to this design, it is really a way for the computer to lower its value, and it is too frivolous and not solemn at all.

Just when the computer shell rack was still on the drawings, Wu Ying rushed into Guo Zhuocheng's office with great dissatisfaction. Her eyes were dark because of fatigue and staying up late, and when she walked in, her steps were even a little fluttering. But hard work did not change her fiery character, she pointed to a drawing and said: "Director Guo, you can't design it like this!" You've put a noble, high-tech darling of God in a beggar's costume. I disagree! ”

Guo looked at her tired appearance and said: "Professor Tungsten, you are too tired to ♀ do scientific research, you have collapsed your body in a few strokes, who will develop computers in the future?" The great man once said that the body is the capital of the revolution. You have to combine work and rest. ”

Wu Ying didn't expect Guo Zhuocheng to say this, and her anger was slightly reduced by being concerned, and she said: "It's hard to wait for the Americans' components, and now every minute is precious, who is willing to rest?" The sooner the computer is designed, the sooner we will be at ease. It's okay, I can still stand it, even Professor Su is so desperate, I'm young...... I'm nearly twenty years younger than him, so why can't I fight so hard that we can have a computer of our own design. ”

Speaking of this, she seemed to remember the purpose of her rushing, and immediately said loudly: "Director Guo, don't change the topic." You say, why is it so cheesy to design such a precious device as a computer? You're not saying that products should be very form-oriented, why are you doing the opposite now. You don't give me a reasonable explanation, I don't sign! I don't agree with production! ”

Obviously feeling that the weight of her sentence was not enough, she said: "Not only me, but I asked others, and everyone thinks that your design is too sloppy, how can this be compared to foreign computers?" ”

Guo Shucheng smiled and said, "Professor Wu, I really don't understand what is going on in your mind? What precious, what God's favorite, what beggar, what cheesy, how can the concept of hierarchy in your minds be so strong? I just reduced some water chestnuts, just added some arcs, added some light colors, how did it become cheesy? At most, it is just a bit popular, and its purpose is just to make ordinary people dare to come forward and touch and ......."

Wu Ying immediately said: "Yes, if this person also wants to touch it, and that person also wants to touch it, then what has become of our computer?" How is it possible to sell for a good price. If we really let them put computers at the same price level as radios, we wouldn't lose money? It's better not to sell it to the Americans.

Guo Zhuocheng smiled again: "I didn't expect that Professor Wu, who is a scholar, also began to consider the price of goods, okay!" However, Professor Wu, have you forgotten that the positioning of our computers is in ordinary homes? People are willing to put computers at the same price level as radios, and we can't wait, why are we anxious?

We may not lose money when we sell it as a radio≌ Telephones also have high and low prices, some radios are not cheap, you don't think of it as a plastic shell radio in those small shops around us, you can imagine it as a high-end radio for thousands of dollars abroad.

Besides, selling computers is no better than selling radios, and selling radios is a one-shot deal, and if you sell them, the manufacturer has almost no contact with the customer. After the computer is sold, as long as customers are familiar with it, they will also come to us to buy game programs, buy accessories, buy services, and we can also make money from these aspects. Having a market is much more important than how much money you make. ”

Wu Ying asked puzzledly: "Don't you want to use the computer we developed to exchange high-end equipment with the Americans?" Could it be that we are in the market and produce in large quantities like a factory? ”

"If there's money to be made, why not? My ultimate goal is to allow Chinese computers to compete with American computers in the world market and occupy the American market. Guo Zhuocheng continued, "It is not so simple to exchange technology or advanced equipment with foreign countries with our technology, it is not that we can exchange it if we want to, and there are many problems that we can't think of.

We have no way to influence or change the policies of the United States, so we can only start from other aspects. The products of American merchants and politicians are different from those of ordinary people. Ordinary people do pay attention to the appearance when buying products. When the product has a good appearance, it will naturally have a greater attraction to customers. But things are relative, in the minds of customers, computers are originally valuables, if we artificially enhance its sense of preciousness, it will only make ordinary people in awe of it and difficult to buy**. You say, who wants to buy an uncle to go home and wait?

American merchants and American politicians pay attention to the function of the product and the level of technology it represents↓Because our appearance design is very popular, and the function is powerful, which can make their products shocking. Those merchants will think: if my product can have such a powerful function and surpass them, how wonderful would my product be? ”
