Zhao Ye knows that only good games can drive game consoles to sell well.

But at the moment, Wujiang has not even designed and produced chips, nor has it developed game consoles, so even if it develops games, most of them are making wedding dresses for Nintendo. It was also in this year that Nintendo made an unprecedented mistake in the third-party franchise agreement - if the game company released the game on Nintendo's console, Nintendo would automatically get half of the intellectual property as a co-publisher!

This is no longer a goose plucking, it is a goose that has been braised over!

Zhao Ye decided that it would be better to design and produce the chip first.

The development of game consoles and games is not very difficult, Zhao Ye has dismantled Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft's game consoles for in-depth research in his previous life, and in the university classroom, he also explained to his students the technology used in such products.

Wujiang has accumulated more and more technology and talents, and Zhao Ye believes that under the design and development of the team led by him, a game console with strong performance can be developed in a few months. Of course, the premise is that the chip must also be strong enough.

……

The performance index of the BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine developed by the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is close to the level of the 4800DSW system developed by the American company GCA seven years ago.

It's 1985, seven years ago, in 1978.

The Z80 chip was invented in 1976.

In this way, the BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine is already quite advanced, and it is more than enough to produce chips like Z80.

However, there are still some problems in the BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine that need to be improved, so as to improve the product yield rate in the actual production process.

Although the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed the BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine, it was moldy in the laboratory, which was a terrible thing. Of course, this may also be due to the lack of R&D funds, and the inability to continue to improve, so it is difficult to commercialize.

Ni has been lobbying at the Chinese Academy of Sciences to merge the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences into the "Wujiang Microelectronics Company", which will be established by Wujiang Company.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences is also holding a meeting to study and discuss whether this matter is feasible. If the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is merged into "Wujiang Microelectronics Company", how many shares can the Chinese Academy of Sciences have?

On the side of Wujiang Company, a company called "Wujiang Microelectronics Company" was soon established with a registered capital of 400 million yuan.

Zhao Ye directly invested the company's profits last year, which highlights his decision to enter the semiconductor field; On the other hand, it is also to attract more talents to join or research institutions to be directly merged into "Wujiang Microelectronics".

Of course, there is still a lot of money on the books of the Borderless Group.

In January 1985, Wujiang's Hanka, typewriter, BB machine, and agent PC brands were sold one after another, and WPS-office software was also sold all over the world, bringing huge revenue to the group, with sales totaling 250 million yuan, minus taxes and other expenses, and a profit of about 100 million.

According to this trend, Wujiang Company will achieve a rapid leap in 1985, and its annual revenue is expected to exceed 3 billion yuan!

However, this is normal, Sitong Company basically created an annual revenue of 1 billion yuan just by relying on the typewriter alone.

Boundless is much stronger than Sitong!

Moreover, according to market forecasts, in 1985, the demand for hanka, typewriter, BB machine, PC, and WPS will increase.

In China, Wujiang Company is basically in a monopoly position in the sales of Hanka, typewriters, BB machines and WPS software, with huge advantages.

The Lenovo Hanka of the computing institute is still improving, and the sales volume is not high.

Only the PC market is more competitive.

At the beginning of this year, many PC assembly machine brands appeared in China.

Hong Kong Jinshan's super-PC is a big seller in China, and other people will naturally follow suit when they see this, because there is no technical difficulty in engaging in PC assembly machines, as long as electronic components can be purchased.

There are so many people in China, and some people can still get electronic components.

In mid-January 1985, the major PC assembly machines began a price war, and the price was as low as 14,000 yuan.

Hong Kong Kingsoft SUPER-PC does not have any technical advantages, so it has to go with the market and adjust the price.

……

The establishment of Wujiang Microelectronics Company has caused a huge sensation in the domestic semiconductor circle.

400 million yuan, in the current era, is undoubtedly an astronomical amount.

"Wujiang is really big, it seems that they have really decided to make a big deal in the semiconductor field!" Lu Feiwen, director of the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was shocked when he saw the news report about Wujiang Microelectronics.

The rest of the people in the institute were all shocked.

Their annual R&D funds are only a few million, but relying on these pitiful funds, they have developed the BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine, although the BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine has fallen behind, although it still has many defects. However, it is undeniable that the advent of BG-101 step-by-step lithography machine can be called the pinnacle of domestic lithography machines.

If we continue to invest a lot of money in the development of lithography machines, perhaps the glorious journey of China's lithography machines is about to begin at this moment......

The talents and technology of the Microelectronics Laboratory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and their diligent research spirit are commendable.

……

Liu Anming, director of Shanghai Optical Machinery Factory, held the newspaper and did not come back to his senses for a long time.

"400 million, Wujiang Group is really wealthy. In the field of semiconductors, the investment in R&D is huge, and the risks are huge, and it is very likely that the final product will become obsolete. Zhao Ye is really amazing, which is admirable. If there is so much money for the development of lithography machines, I think that China's lithography machine industry can quickly shorten the gap with the United States! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Anming paused, walked to the window, and looked into the distance.

Not long ago, Ni Annan came to Shanghai Optical Machinery Factory and said a bunch of big truths, saying that China's lithography machine industry needs to unite and concentrate on big things, and Wujiang Company is willing to be the leader and provide funds to jointly develop lithography machines.

At that time, Liu Anming just laughed.

Now, this matter has to be seriously considered.

The JKG-3 lithography machine developed by Shanghai Optical Machinery Factory is not bad, and the technicians have accumulated a lot of experience in the development of lithography machines.

……

With the establishment of Wujiang Microelectronics Company, Ni Yinnan was digging people at this time, and immediately got twice the result with half the effort.

The Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai Optical Machinery Factory, Wuhan Radio Component No. 3 Factory, etc., have also begun to change their attitudes, seriously considering whether to merge into Wujiang Microelectronics Company, whether it is feasible in terms of policy?

Ni Annan struck while the iron was hot, and planned to invite domestic research institutions in the field of semiconductors to come to Wujiang to participate in the party with the reputation of Wujiang Microelectronics.

As soon as he got to work at 9 o'clock in the morning, Ni Annan came to Zhao Ye's office and told him this idea.

"China Lithography Machine Industry Summit?"

When Zhao Ye heard this, he felt that this idea was very good, smiled slightly, and said: "No problem, this idea is good, you are responsible for the invitation, and the company will bear the round-trip fare and accommodation expenses of these guests!" ”
