Soon, the news came out that the company had developed a new product and was about to hold a press conference.

Every launch of Borderless creates a sensation.

Therefore, this time of Wujiang Company is also eye-catching.

However, at this press conference, Wujiang invited many PC manufacturers from abroad.

Of course, domestic PC manufacturers are those companies that engage in assembly machines, and they have channels to get electronic components such as CPUs, memory, and hard disks, and then assemble them into computers to make a lot of money.

Naturally, Wujiang Company can also get these electronic components, but this requires the cost of precious foreign exchange, Zhao Ye feels that it is not cost-effective, he has already planned to use these foreign exchange to speculate on foreign exchange, and make a lot of money after the "Plaza Agreement" is signed.

In the foreign exchange market, leverage can be used, and Zhao Ye directly stud into a win-win game like the "Square Agreement".

If you go to RB this time, you may be able to borrow US dollars from RB Bank, then exchange US dollars for Japanese yen, and then exchange Japanese yen for US dollars after the US dollar plummets, and then return it to the bank.

The press conference is scheduled for May 20.

It's not a 520 in this era, and this day is just a very normal day.

At this time, the computer motherboard production line is still being debugged, and there is no need to think much about the output, there must be less possibilities. Fortunately, it is relatively easy to expand production capacity, and it is not difficult to produce motherboards.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Imagine computer motherboard conference has not yet been held, Zhao Ye devoted himself to the research and development of the game console, and was ready to take the team to work overtime to develop the Imagine game console.

First, he had multiple FC consoles and cartridges bought for the development team to play for a few days to give them a detailed idea of the console.

Only then did the development work begin.

Although there are differences between computer motherboards and game console motherboards, they have the same goal, and many technologies and principles are the same.

The FC red and white game console, to put it simply, is technically essentially a single-chip microcomputer system, which has a core CPU, as well as a smaller memory.

Therefore, when developing a game console, it is very easy for the development team to get started.

Zhao Ye is in charge of the overall situation, what kind of function the game console wants to achieve, he is very clear, and after the overall design idea is settled, he is directly responsible for the hardware circuit schematic design.

At present, the drawing design tool used by Zhao Ye is AutoCAD released by a foreign Autodesk company in November 1982.

But this AutoCAD is very inconvenient to use because the version is too low.

Zhao Ye had used more advanced CAD and EDA in his previous life, and if he had the opportunity, he wanted to develop CAD and EDA, not only for the convenience of himself and the company's developers, but also to create huge profits. At the same time, it can also enhance its own voice in the field of semiconductors.

Whoever dares to block himself, he will not sell the most advanced CAD and EAD to the other party.

In the previous life, the lithography machine was monopolized by the Dutch ASML, and the EDA was monopolized by the United States.

EDA is known as the "mother of chips", is the foundation of the IT industry chain, is a special software specially used to design chips, which can efficiently design, control, and even manage tens of billions of transistors to work together in a chip. Without it, the entire IT pyramid would have collapsed.

Once the United States completely restricts China's use of EDA software, China's chip industry will suffer huge losses, and domestic chip design manufacturers will have to shut down.

"The boss's speed is really incredible, but in just one week, a lot of circuit diagram design was completed, which is really amazing. If I were to do it, I might not be as fast as him in a month, and the circuit diagram he designed looks exquisite and complex, with a high-end and beautiful feeling! ”

"Our boss is really powerful, he is simply a super genius!"

"I heard that he also understands chip design, Kirin 1 is the design he led, this chip is simply powerful, and it is already invincible in the 8-bit processor!"

"Yes, the boss is too good, he is engaged in R&D work under him, which is convincing!"

"Nintendo is unlucky now, our boss is eyeing the fat meat of the game console, and he will definitely find a way to kick Nintendo out of the market! Our boss is a super genius who hasn't been born in a hundred years, and maybe he has an extraordinary talent for game design! ”

"Mmmmmm I always feel that our boss is simply capable of anything! ”

“……”

At lunchtime, the game console development members got together in twos and threes, chatting while eating, and most of the chat topics revolved around Zhao Ye.

Zhao Ye, a technology god from his previous life, made them simply astonished!

In the blink of an eye, three weeks have passed, and the schematic diagram of the Imagine game console has finally been designed by Zhao Ye. If it weren't for the fact that the original AutoCAD tool was not easy to use, he would have been faster.

The next step is to design the hardware circuit PCB, the PCB is imported from the schematic diagram, and after the components are imported into the PCB, the size of the target circuit board and the size of the screw opening are designed according to the requirements of the structure, and there are special components that need to cut part of the circuit board.

Then, the components are reasonably arranged, then wiring, according to the situation, whether to add teardrops, copper pour, etc., and move the silk screen to make it visible, and finally DRC rule checking, etc......

Then make a sample, purchase materials, solder the circuit board, check and test, and hand it over to the software engineer after passing, and cooperate with the software engineer to test the function of the circuit board, and record the problem so that the next batch of samples can be modified.

……

……

After Zhao Ye finished the hardware circuit schematic, he handed over the rest of the work to the team members.

The Imagine computer motherboard launch event is approaching, and there are quite a few things going on.

Borderless Factory.

Zhao Ye visited the newly built Imagine computer motherboard production workshop.

"How many employees does the Imagine computer motherboard production shop have?" Zhao Ye asked the person in charge of the production workshop on the side, this production workshop seems to cover an area of more than 800 square meters.

"There are a hundred workers."

"Well, what is the daily output of computer motherboards?"

"It's about 3,000 motherboards a day. However, when the workers become skilled, they should be able to increase the output to more than 4,000 pieces. ”

"Not bad." Zhao Ye smiled and nodded.

Even with a daily output of 3,000 motherboards, it can produce 1,095,000 motherboards a year.

In 1985, the global sales of personal computers must have been far greater than 1.095 million, and the Imagine motherboard certainly couldn't eat all the orders.

At the moment, this production should be sufficient.

If the Imagine motherboard sells well, you can increase the production equipment and labor at any time.

May 20 at 8 p.m.

The Borderless press conference began.

Sixteen foreign PC manufacturers attended the conference, including IBM, HP, Compaq and other well-known computer companies.

As for the domestic PC manufacturers, one counts as one, and almost all of them are there.

Before the press conference began, they began to talk about what kind of products Wujiang was going to release this time.

"It may be a chip, a few months ago, Wujiang Group invested in Wujiang Microelectronics Company, which specializes in the research and development of chips! I guess Borderless must have invented the chip! ”

"I don't think it's a chip, and it is impossible for Wujiang Microelectronics to develop a chip that can be applied to a computer so quickly! Even if they develop 8-bit chips, I count them as strong!! ”

“……”

A few Americans on the side couldn't help but smile contemptuously when they heard everyone's discussion.

The difficulty of CPU development, as we all know, what is the situation in China, can develop a CPU? Even if you barely develop a CPU, I'm afraid it's an extremely backward CPU.

If it weren't for the fact that Wujiang Company developed Hanka and has a strong PC sales ability, we wouldn't have come to this press conference, which is a waste of time.
