Chapter 358: Japan's Shock
Less than three hours after the news from the United States reached Japan, the minister of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry convened a meeting of officials from relevant departments and executives of five major companies, including NEC, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Mitsubishi Electric, and Toshiba, to discuss ways to deal with the Spark computer.

Before the discussion, the director of the Cultural Information Related Industries Division of the Business Policy Information Policy Bureau reported to the participants on the situation of the exhibition, especially the grand occasion when the Xihuan Electronics Company left the exhibition venue, although he did not dare to assert that the Xinghuo computer would be popular all over the world, but it was clearly implied that this computer had an epoch-making role and that it was not impossible for it to enter thousands of households.
After waiting for the small section chief to report, the Minister of International Trade and Industry said in a depressed manner, "Our country is too backward and weak in China's intelligence work. It is absolutely a dereliction of duty on the part of the intelligence services that they have developed such excellent computers that we did not know about β it, and I will propose this to His Excellency the Prime Minister.
In order to catch up with the pace of science and technology in the United States, our country has spent a huge amount of money to form the VLSI Alliance, and has concentrated all its human, material, and financial resources to cooperate in the development of VLSI technology. So far, we have invested more than 1.8 billion US dollars, but now our research results have not reached our expected goals, and China's science and technology that we do not see in our eyes have surpassed us.
For this reason, should we set up another alliance to develop the computer as a whole?
Obviously, this is not possible. We don't have that much money, and we don't have that much talent. Gathering you today is that without investing huge sums of money, we can obtain these computer technologies from China, fully master them in the fastest time, and catch up with and surpass the Chinese in a short time. We must ensure that only the United States will always be ahead of us! Whether it's technology or military!
Please, gentlemen. Now I would like to ask you to share your thoughts and suggestions. I believe that you will do your best, and you will not be willing to stand in front of us in backward China. β
The vice president of NEC was the first to speak: "Your Excellency, the contemptible people think that this is an elaborate deception. Although I don't know exactly how well this computer performs right now, I can be sure that this computer is definitely not designed and made in China. One of my computer experts has a lot of friends in China, no, a lot of Chinese treat him as a friend, and he knows the state of China's computers.
Although Chinese experts copied the Nova 200 minicomputer that our country resold and provided to them to develop the DJS-0 minicomputer, the performance of this DJS-0 minicomputer is quite inferior and the operation is extremely unstable. They also announced that they had successfully copied the 00 chip in the United States, which can be said to be ahead of us in this regard, but they only realized part of its functions, and they did it in the real room, and they did not have the ability to produce it in batches at all, and it was impossible to use it to make a microprocessor for computers.
If this computer really has such excellent functions and stable performance as Mr. Section Chief just said, then, contemptible thought, there are only two facts that may exist: either these computers were made by American companies, or the God of the West has descended on China.
And the contemptible people do not believe that the God of the West has come to China, and I prefer to believe that China has encountered a disaster star in recent years. The successive deaths of their national leaders, the devastating earthquake in Tangshan, the ensuing floods and droughts, the political turmoil, and so on have all distracted their attention, distracted them from their energy, manpower, and material resources. As you all know, the computer is a huge system engineering, and even our great Japan is not capable of comprehensive research and development for the time being. Even with their financial resources and talent reserves, they can't do it.
The reason why contemptible people say that they are the products of American companies, but hang the brand of Chinese companies, is because they need gimmicks. It may be unimaginable to you, but it is. Do you remember the visit to the United States earlier this year by China's notable leader for his patience?
At that time, he was only the vice premier of China's State Council, but his pompous spectacle was no less than that of the presidents of other countries. Why? Simply because of the American novelty, simply because of the Chinese mystery!
The Americans were very curious when they saw the leader of this mysterious country visit them for the first time, so there were thousands of empty alleys, and the whole people rushed to witness them.
The contemptible people have to admit that the marketing strategy of this Xihuan electronics company is very successful, attracting the attention of all the customers of the exhibition. The person who developed this plan was a marketing genius who deserved to be explored, and another proof of this is the flow of cars and people behind the truck.
Imagine if it were you, knowing that there were not many products for this computer, and knowing that you couldn't buy a computer, would you follow that truck that far like a fool?
So, the contemptible opinion is that we ignore them. Just wait for the day when the truth comes out. If we use our limited manpower and material resources to track China's technology, we will not only be ridiculed by the Chinese people, but also despised by Western civilized countries. β
The words of the vice president of NEC resonated with most of the people present, who were suspicious of China's rapid progress in the computer field and did not believe that God favored the Chinese.
Toshiba's executive director disagreed, saying, "People don't think that this computer has nothing to do with China at all." I don't know if you have noticed, but the exhibitors are very comprehensive, and several major computer manufacturers and semiconductor manufacturers in the United States are gathered in it, and our Toshiba manufacturers are also among them. According to the company's employees, the computer's word processing programs, form processing programs, and games are not available in other large companies, or other large companies cannot be compared with the programs of this computer.
It is surprising to say that these technologies were invented on a whim by the unrelenting Western Ring Electronics Company and are completely independent of the soil of existing American technology, but it is better to say that these technologies came from China and were invented by Chinese people. After all, China has given the world many miracles, both military and technological, such as nuclear weapons, such as aerospace technology, and so on.
The contemptible person is a businessman, and the boss of this Xihuan Electronics Company must also be a businessman, and he should know how to do business. Although this company is small, his backstage is the Bruce family, and the power can only be regarded as second-rate, and there must be basic experience. If he really has these software, these technologies, and the performance of their computers is really so good, he can rely on them to succeed, and he doesn't need to play China's signboard at all.
Although Americans are full of curiosity about the Chinese and think that China is extremely mysterious, they should not forget that China has lost face in 26 years by beating the United States and the US-led coalition **, and many of their sons, brothers, fathers, and uncles died on the Korean battlefield.
According to the company's employees, there was no media to interview them at the beginning, and it was clear that the truck entered the museum just before the opening, and it was also clear that the logo of the two Chinese characters "Xinghuo" appeared on the truck, but the major media did not track it.
It shows that these media people are afraid of risks and are not swayed by noveltyβThe reason why they became a sensation after the novelty was achieved entirely by virtue of the excellent performance of the computer, and had little to do with marketing strategies. If you have to talk about marketing strategies, it is better to praise the chairs they put in the corner for resting and coffee to quench their thirst, and use humanized tricks to impress customers.
In addition, we should not ignore that the patent β was announced in public by Jack, the general manager of Xihuan Electronics. Their patents are jointly owned by them and the Chinese company, and Xihuan Electronics has the manufacturing and sales rights of the patents in the United States.
Think about it, if this computer really has nothing to do with China, will Xihuan Electronics give the patent to others? It should be distributed and should be distributed to enterprises in Britain and France, which have developed science and technology and have a high level of manufacturing, or our big Japan, why should it be distributed only to Chinese enterprises that have no status in international commerce and trade? The low manufacturing capacity of Chinese enterprises has not helped Xihuan Electronics Company to occupy the market. β
"Yes! Oh, yes! A few people nodded again, finding his words more convincing than those of the vice president of NEC.
The vice president of NEC asked dissatisfiedly: "Your Excellency means that we need to set up an alliance to track Chinese technology?" β
Toshiba's executive director smiled contemptuously: "Of course it's not necessary. In addition to military technology, there are still very few things we can learn from them. I don't know what the current situation is like with computers. β
NEC's vice president said, "When it comes to patents, it's a bit contemptible to say it. The contemptible people feel that the patent incident shows that Chinese companies are not involved in the research and development and manufacturing of this computer. ......, why do you say that? According to the despicable people's understanding of Chinese and Chinese enterprises, they know nothing about patents, and they have no concept of intellectual property protection, where would they think of anything to apply for patents in the United States? β
Toshiba's executive director smiled again: "Your Excellency is just guessing, hasn't anyone in China come to his senses?" As long as one person talks about the benefits of having patents, such as Chinese intellectuals abroad, where will they not understand the benefits of owning patents? β
The smile of Toshiba's executive director made the vice president of NEC feel very uncomfortable, and there was always a hint of contempt in it.
