Chapter 124: Tiangong Technology!
On the same day, Zhao Ye asked people to register a company called "Tiangong Technology", specializing in the research and development of high-end CNC machine tools, with a registered capital of 1 billion yuan, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wujiang Group.
In the previous life, China has been able to manufacture low-end CNC machine tools, and the localization is relatively high, but high-end machines basically have to be imported from abroad.
There are four main problems in China's high-end CNC machine tools, one is that the precision CNC system of high-end machine tools mainly comes from Japan and Germany; Second, the spindle mainly comes from Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and other countries; Third, the lead screw is mainly from Japan; Fourth, the tools are mainly from Sweden, the United States, Japan and other countries, the domestic tool materials are backward, the life and stability are not high, and the average life is only one-third to one-half of the international advanced level.
Therefore, the main research and development direction of Tiangong Technology is precision CNC system, spindle, lead screw and tool.
Wujiang Group only makes products that domestic enterprises can't make, this is the style, this is the grade!
It's just that investing in the Seiko field is the same as investing in semiconductors, it's a bottomless pit, I don't know how much money to invest in, 1 billion yuan is just a drop in the bucket.
Zhao Ye couldn't help but sigh that he had made so much money, but he had to invest in research and development......
"First of all, look for CNC machine tool leaders and outstanding scientific research talents in China, dig them up, and then find a way to introduce advanced technology from abroad, on this basis, research and development, shorten the development time! This time, I just want to talk to Philips about CD patent licensing, and by the way, I bought Philips's CNC machine tool technology, although I can't buy the most advanced, but it's two or three generations away! You can even talk about ASML ......" Zhao Ye sat in the office and muttered to himself.
At this time, the 16-bit home game console is already under urgent development, and no matter what, it will also get a CD patent.
Although Wujiang Group does not have the right to formulate cd standards, it can influence the promotion of CD standards by virtue of its influence in the game industry!
Currently, the game's storage medium is game cartridges. If Wujiang Group is the first to use CD as a game medium, then it will have a huge effect on the promotion of CD.
When it was almost noon, Zhao Ye called Lu Maoshi to the office, ready to send him to Philips to talk about the acquisition plan of CD patents and CNC machine tool technology, and ASML's investment could also be briefly chatted.
Zhao Ye gave a face-to-face lecture and explained in detail the purpose and importance of the trip.
Lu Mao took a note of it practically, nodded and said: "Okay, boss, I have already written it down, don't worry, this trip to Philips will definitely be a success!" ”
"Well, I'm waiting for your good news!"
……
……
At this time, the "Poor Game Console" is conquering the global game market at a rapid pace, with total sales exceeding 25 million units.
At the same time, most third-party game developers have chosen to release their games on the "Strange Game Console" platform.
Nintendo has no way to do this.
The previously announced "either-or" blocking order is like a fictitious one.
Wujiang Group has launched two cooperation methods, one is an exclusive game, which is divided into 30%; One is multi-platform, divided into 20%.
In view of the fact that the development momentum of "Poor Wonder Game Machine" far exceeds that of "FC Game Machine", more and more game developers are choosing to cooperate with exclusive games.
In business competition, the strong will always be strong, and the weak will always be weak.
As more and more third-party game developers choose the "Wonder Console" platform, this makes "Wonder Console" more attractive to players. On the other hand, "FC consoles" have gradually lost their appeal to players.
In January and February 1987, Nintendo's revenues had dropped significantly.
Pu Yamauchi, Shigeru Miyamoto, and Junhei Yokoi have held many meetings and discussions with Nintendo's senior management, and everyone's views have basically reached a consensus, that is: in the 8-bit game console market, the "FC game console" has completely lost to the "Qiqi game console", and Nintendo must develop a 16-bit game console if it wants to regain the hegemony of the game.
The 16-bit console is very powerful, and the game graphics are far better than the 8-bit console, so game developers can develop more fun games on the 16-bit console, so it is not a problem to beat the "Poor Wonder Game Console"!
A butterfly in the rainforest of the Amazon basin in South America, with an occasional flap of its wings, could cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later.
In the previous life, Nintendo launched the "FC game console" in 1983, and it was not until November 21, 1990 that the 16-bit game console "SFC" (Super-FC) was released.
The birth of the Borderless Group led to a crisis for Nintendo, and there was no way to continue to lie down and win.
If you are poor, you will think about change!
Under the butterfly effect, Nintendo began the development of 16-bit game consoles ahead of schedule.
……
The big sale of the "Poor Strange Game Machine" was very helpful for Lu Maoshi to go to Philips to negotiate.
More than ten days later, Lu Mao took a group of people to the Netherlands.
Among the entourage, three of them are big bulls in the field of domestic CNC machine tools, Zhou Huicheng, Qing Chengen, and Shen Zeyu.
On the first day, everyone checked into the hotel, rested for the night, and adjusted for the time difference. At the same time, a notice was sent to Philips to make an appointment to talk about cooperation at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Philips learned that the delegation of Wujiang Group was coming to discuss cooperation and extended a warm welcome.
Wujiang Group is not what it used to be, and its revenue is not even worse than that of Philips.
"Wujiang Group has previously negotiated with Philips about CD patent licensing, and this time I will definitely bring up this matter again. It is clear that the second generation of home game consoles from Borderless Group intends to use CDs as a storage medium for games. ”
Hank Wells, President of Philips, analyzed, "With the current position of Wujiang Group in game consoles, if it can launch CD games, it will definitely be conducive to the promotion of CD-ROM standards. This means a lot to Philips! So this time, we should encircle the Borderless Group and make certain concessions. ”
The participants nodded their heads in agreement!
It has been 10 years since Atari pioneered the era of home game consoles in 1976. Imagine how many game cartridges were sold all over the world, 1 billion? 2 billion? Or 3 billion ???
If CDs can replace game cartridges as a dedicated storage medium for games, it will definitely bring huge revenue to Philips.
The next day, the weather was nice and sunny.
Lu Maoshi and his entourage came to Philips in a special car provided by the hotel.
Hank Wells, president of Philips, was very enthusiastic about the arrival of Lu Maoshi and others.
Seeing this, Lu Maoshi couldn't help but think of Wang Jizhi talking to himself about his experience of coming to Philips when he chatted with him before, at that time, Wujiang Group was not as famous as it is now, when Wang Jizhi came to Philips to negotiate, the other party's attitude was lukewarm, his words were full of arrogance, and he seemed to look down on Chinese and Chinese companies, and set a price, unwilling to give in at all.
However, a year later, Philips' attitude immediately changed.
Sure enough, whether it is between countries or between enterprises, after all, it is necessary to rely on strength to speak.
Weak countries have no diplomacy.
Only when you have strong strength will others look at you.
Lu Maoshi took a breath and was deeply proud to be a member of the Borderless Group.
