377 Banquet at the Governor's Palace

It took about fifteen minutes for Chen Zhiwen to tell the Super Mario in his memory, including the treasures in the wall above the route of the game characters, such as flowers, mushrooms, some monsters on the road, various pipes, cliffs, and so on.

This kind of game is much more complicated than the previous one, it can be said that it has officially entered the threshold of video games, in the previous life, Chen Zhiwen naturally played it when he was a child, and it has been a long time, and he doesn't remember it much, he only knows what categories of things there are, but how to design routes, treasures, and monsters can only rely on his own engineers.

"Mr. Yokoi, what do you think? Is this game hard to design? Chen Zhiwen looked at the person on the edge who had not spoken, this person was one of the most important figures in the history of game development in later generations - Yokoi Junhei.

Although I was born with the knowledge of various classic games in the original history, this kind of game was also created by some highly talented and hard-working people in the original history, and the ability of these people, even if history changes, is likely to create other games, so as to become the strongest competitor of beauty.

However, Chen Zhiwen also doesn't know who is the person who created various classic games, but Yokoi Junhei, but the most famous, the entire Nintendo, can be said to have become a game giant in later generations because of him, and even when Yokoi Junhei died in a car accident in the 90s, it also caused Nintendo's stock price to plummet.

As early as more than two years ago, Chen Zhiwen arranged for someone to go to Japan to find this game genius, wanting to dig him up to the United States, but this guy seems to be reluctant to leave Nintendo, in this company, he has already achieved a little success, directly Chen Zhiwen directly bid an annual salary of 500,000 US dollars, a luxury house in Tokyo and Hong Kong, and a weekly round-trip ticket to Japan and Hong Kong in the future, before he poached him.

Dig to Yokoi Junhei,Not only eliminated a strong competitor,He himself is also very successful,In the past few years in the United States, he has also developed several games,Although not as good as [tank battle],But there are also small achievements,The game card has also sold millions,Earned for the company is also tens of millions of dollars in profits,Worthy of its salary,At the same time,It also makes the red and white machine of the United States have more game content。

"The difficulty of the game is very high, and this kind of horizontal axis game inevitably requires a lot of memory space and a stronger computing chip, but the specific choice of chip will need to wait until the design and testing process to decide." Yokoi Junhei thought about it and said that after 2 years in Hong Kong, he also learned Cantonese.

"Okay, then this project, I'll be in charge of you, first design an arcade machine, put it into the market, and then optimize it according to the feedback, and then design the cards of the game machine." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said, although he doesn't know much about technology, he also knows that the software design in the game is also very important, and the code is well written, which can reduce the energy consumption needs, algorithm requirements and even hardware requirements.

"Okay, thank you President Chen for giving me this opportunity." Yokoi Junhei hurriedly stood up, bowed and said, beautiful games, each one is a hit, and being able to participate in the design of such a game is also an honor for game people like them.

"Okay, let's decide first, except for the personal computer, the resources of the entire company need to support this project, and we need money for money and people for people." Chen Zhiwen said to the others again.

Personal computers are not very profitable now, but their potential in the future is immeasurable, and they may become the pillar industry of the entire United States in the future, so in terms of priority, it is overriding everything.

The second most important thing is naturally the popular game, which can not only make huge profits, but also increase the popularity of Midea in the global electronics industry and electronics market, and the funds and fame obtained will be of great help to Midea's other industries, including computer and home appliance business.

Mario is the most influential game in human history, Chen Zhiwen has actually paid attention to it for a long time, but such a game, the requirements for chips and a series of semiconductors are much higher than the previous single-interface games, even if Midea wants to develop it, it can't be developed, and the chips on the market simply don't support games with such strength requirements.

It wasn't until recently that Intel released the latest 16-bit chip 80286, which made it possible to develop Mario, so Chen Zhiwen began to formally put forward this requirement, and related to various character copyrights, patents, etc., last year, Chen Zhiwen has arranged for people to register globally.

You only need to wait until the game is developed, and it doesn't matter if it's different from Chen Zhiwen's memory, as long as the playability is about the same, at that time, Midea will once again surprise all game companies.

When each company has developed to a certain scale and can develop itself in the direction of Chen Zhiwen, plus a professional financial review team responsible for the headquarters office to check and balance, he, the boss, does not need to intervene too much, only needs to be responsible for major events and strategic investment.

At the same time, they also need to be responsible for some major external affairs, such as the relationship with the government.

On August 6, the Hong Kong Governor's Office issued an invitation to all political and business celebrities in Hong Kong, inviting everyone to attend a charity gala held by the Hong Kong government on August 10 to help Vietnamese refugees in Hong Kong.

For this group of Vietnamese who can only create chaos, Chen Zhiwen has no interest in helping them, not to mention China, even Hong Kong, in fact, there are many people who live a very poor life, and can only say that they will not starve to death.

Chen Zhiwen's charitable foundation in Hong Kong spends hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars every year to do charity, which can not only avoid taxes to a certain extent, but also establish the image of the whole group and itself, at the same time, these funds are only invested in the Chinese in Hong Kong, as for the ghosts (Hong Kong also has poor ghosts and British), Indians, Vietnamese, other Southeast Asians, etc., don't think about taking a penny.

But this is the invitation of the Hong Kong Governor's Office, all the big businessmen in Hong Kong will go, if it is an ordinary businessman, it will be okay if you don't go, but Chen Zhiwen's fame is too great, if you don't go, it will be a bit of a loss of face, Chen Zhiwen still thinks that it is enough to show his face, this is actually the time for many businessmen in Hong Kong to get together, under normal circumstances, it is not easy to gather so many people.

Moreover, under the analysis of the public relations manager, Chen Zhiwen and others also believe that the so-called Vietnamese refugees at this banquet are only superficial problems, and in essence, they still have to prepare for the visit of the Iron Lady Thatcher to China next month.

Next month, the Iron Lady Thatcher will visit Yanjing, but, as in the company's business negotiations, in fact, the subordinate officials of both sides do not know how many times they have discussed.

The British Empire, which recently won the Falklands War in South America, re-opened the world's vision of the strength of this declining empire in one fell swoop, and forced many other small countries to stop some of their original thoughts, but the country is not one of those small countries that does not even have a few ships in the navy.

However, after all, the current international situation is peace first, and no force can be used unless absolutely necessary, so the two sides can only negotiate in the fields of public opinion, economy, and diplomacy, and on the Hong Kong side, influential people from all sides are also figures that both sides need to win over.

In the past six months, Xinhua News Agency people do not know how many celebrities and rich people in Hong Kong have visited, and Chen Zhiwen is among them. The Hong Kong government is the same, sending people to visit many times, under the pretext of maintaining the current declining economy in Hong Kong, but they are signaling openly and secretly.

August 10, 1982.

It rained heavily throughout Hong Kong, but the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion was still as lively, and many police officers were on duty outside to protect the safety of the people inside the Hong Kong Governor's Office, because inside, all the celebrities and elites gathered in Hong Kong, it can be said that except for a few, a group of other people who controlled the whole of Hong Kong are here.

In Hong Kong, there are many Rolls-Royces and Bentleys, and most people have them, but today they are coming to the government department, and everyone still chooses to keep a low profile, and an ordinary Mercedes-Benz (Mercedes-Benz) is enough.

When Chen Zhiwen arrived, there were already many people at the banquet scene, at a glance, on the left was the Chinese group, Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang, Huo Yingdong, Lee Shau-kee, Zheng Yutong, etc. were all on the scene, and on the right were the British ghost gangsters, Jardine's Niu Bijian, Bao Fuda, Swire Shi Huaiya, HSBC's Shen Bi, etc., but there were also a few Chinese in the middle, and they seemed to be more gregarious with the ghosts.

Chen Zhiwen's arrival made everyone's eyes focus on him, and the ghost guys were the same, but Chen Zhiwen ignored them and walked to the left where the Chinese group was.

"Chen Sheng, it's been a long time." Bao Yugang, who had a good relationship with Chen Zhiwen, walked over with a smile.

"Yes, Bao Sheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I've been in Hong Kong, but I've heard that you've been running around the world lately." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Yes, when Lao Dong died, I came back, and the rest of the time, I was basically overseas. As you know, the shipping market has been abnormal recently, and I am also in a hurry to deal with many ships. Bao Yugang said with a sigh.

"Fortunately, Bao Sheng has obtained China Power, so you basically don't have to worry too much about the shipping market." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

As early as a few years ago, as the world's first person in the shipping industry, Bao Yugang was keenly aware that there will soon be big problems in the shipping market, because according to the orders of global shipyards in the current year and the next few years, a large number of ships will be launched after three years, which will inevitably lead to oversupply in the global shipping market, and it will become more and more serious.

But when Bao Yugang found the problem, it was the peak of the shipping market, many ships can return to their costs in two or three years, and the rest is pure profit, all shipping companies are still desperately placing orders, and shipyards are receiving orders softly, and few people think about what will happen in a few years.

So, there was the ship king Bao Yugang abandoned the boat landing, although this Wharf was preemptively acquired by Chen Zhiwen, but Bao Yugang still bought China Power, the size and market value of the ship, China Power is not less than Wharf how much, and in this process, Bao Yugang also took the opportunity to sell a large number of ships, slimming down his own shipping scale.

"It's not that simple, I still have a lot of ships in my hands, which is so easy to completely empty, but the scale is a little smaller, with my connections and connections, it is no problem to maintain operations, I can only say that there is less loss." Bao Yugang said with a smile.

"That's not bad, when the shipping market recovers, Bao Sheng can still be the king of ships again." Chen Zhiwen said.

"I don't think it's so easy to recover from the problems in the shipping market this time." Bao Yugang said: "And I am also old, after Lao Dong died, I was worried that I would be the same, and the only thing I could do now was not to be like him, and bring a huge debt to my family after his death." ”

"It's also unavoidable, doing business, there's always a risk. If Bao Sheng feels that his health is not very good, he can go to Europe and the United States for a comprehensive physical examination, except for the radiation that is harmful to the body, he can also have regular examinations, which is not only responsible for himself, but also responsible for his family. Chen Zhiwen said.

In the original history, Bao Yugang seemed to have terminal cancer when he was discovered, and in the face of such a serious illness, even if the rich man encountered it 50 years later, he could not escape death, such as Jobs.

But if you regularly check your body, even if the current technology is not as good as the future, there is a high probability that the problem can be detected at an early stage, which is the benefit of having money.

"I've also considered what you said, but my business is too busy." Bao Yugang said.

"No matter how busy you are, your body doesn't matter." Chen Zhiwen thought for a while and said, "Why don't we build a higher hospital in Hong Kong, or at least, a high-level physical examination hospital?" In this way, we also have to go to Japan or Europe and the United States for inspection? ”

"That's good, I'll vote a little." Bao Yugang agreed without thinking about it, how much can a hospital cost? The two of them didn't care.

"That's okay, let's do one together, so that not only is it convenient for us, but many people in Hong Kong are also guaranteed, and the market should be not small." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said, this is a small investment, not for economic interests, but for health, which is much more valuable than the economy.

Subsequently, after a few moments of exchange with other Chinese tycoons in Hong Kong, Hong Kong Governor Youde officially appeared.

After getting on the podium, Youde came to a very wonderful speech, the main content is naturally under the leadership of the British Empire, Hong Kong has changed from a small fishing village to today's international metropolis, and in the future, Britain will still maintain the same attitude, balabala, and so on.

Chen Zhiwen in the audience naturally listened lazily, if it were not for the window between the mainland and the world, what could Hong Kong develop?

After the speech, Youde first went to the side of the ghosts, and then came to the side of the Chinese community, and the first target was naturally Chen Zhiwen.
