Back at Chen Shangli's home in Hong Kong City, Chen Shangren went directly to his brother's study and called his father who was far away in Malaysia.

After waiting for about five or six minutes, Mr. Chen, who had just finished a trip in the yard, came back to answer the phone, and when he heard his son's narration, Mr. Chen didn't think about it, and asked his son directly.

"Do you think we should provide so much money to this Mr. Su?" Old Man Chen asked his son.

Chen Shangren was a little strange, because this matter had already been discussed when he came, why did his father still ask it? Test yourself?

"I think I should borrow, but I can't borrow so much, it's okay to have 100 million" Chen Shangren still insisted on his own point of view.

After listening to this, Old Man Chen said: "If you give a gift, don't give it at all, because the more you pick at it, the less people will accept your affection, not only will you not receive your affection, but it will offend people on the contrary and make people look down on you from the bottom of their hearts."

You have to understand, since we have set up a shelf to sing a high note, who is afraid of raising the key?

He dares to borrow this money, why don't we borrow it?

Are you really the top real estate in Hong Kong before? Let me tell you that it was early, do you see how important the location of Minato City is to the north? ”

"But the north is too poor now," Mr. Chen said.

Old Man Chen said: "How much money did we have when our family came out?" Your grandfather didn't have a few oceans in his body at that time, so don't you still have such a family business now?

If we can, why do you think the north can't? ”

Old man Chen is not disappointed in his son, the old man knows that there is a long and short inch, and everyone praises his son, but he is too conservative, sometimes more conservative than his old guy.

This can't be said to be a bad thing, but it can't be said to be a good thing, such a careful temperament will not bring any huge fluctuations to the company, but it is also difficult to bring the company from the current scale to a new peak.

In short, his sons are all people who keep the success and lack the courage to move forward.

"What do you mean?" Chen Shangren asked.

Old Man Chen laughed and said: "Didn't he say that his EA is worth 50 million, then talk to him, 50 million will ask him for 15% of the shares." You all said that this person's luck is good, and he can get stuck a little bit every time, so let's bet on his luck, isn't it 50 million?"

Chen Shangren still wanted to persuade his father, but after thinking for a while, he nodded and replied: "I understand, but you give me a bottom line, how much money we can get at most."

Old Man Chen thought for a while and told his eldest son the hole cards he expected.

After Chen Shangren got the old man's instructions, he made an appointment with Gu Siwei for dinner the next morning.

At this time, how could Gu Siwei have time to eat with Chen Shangren, he was busy here, EA over there was ready to make more game consoles to put on the market, and there was a little problem with Fairchild temporarily, there were not so many products supplied to EA, as for the original agreement between the two families, it was postponed by Fairchild.

When it was so hot, Fairchild dropped the chain, and you said that this is not a mess.

If you want to go to the United States as soon as possible, then Zhao Sanle's A goods here must be prepared as soon as possible.

This busy work, where is Gu Siwei in the mood to have dinner with Chen Shangren, as for saying that EA shares are not shares, the old Chen family gives this money Gu Siwei also celebrates the New Year, and Gu Siwei still celebrates the New Year if he does not give this money.

Hurriedly got on the plane and arrived in San Francisco, Gu Siwei plunged into EA.

Now the atmosphere of EA is very good, and the first product is an instant hit, which makes everyone's face happy. As soon as Gu Siwei came over, he announced on the spot that he had given everyone a bonus, so the morale was rising.

A temporary partition, a long round table, becomes the company's meeting room.

Everyone pulled up chairs at random and sat down around the table, there was no main or second place here, everyone gathered in a circle, and it was very IT industry atmosphere.

Naturally, the participants were EA 'Big Three' Joe Hawkins, Ron Hayek and Jill Amelio.

Gu Siwei first listened to Jill talk about the current situation of the company, mainly because of the problem of the chain falling on Fairchild's side.

Gu Siwei didn't have a good way to listen to it, a lot of things were produced by Fairchild, and now people don't provide it for Fairchild, it's not that they don't provide it, it's just that EA is too anxious to ask for the goods, and they can't provide it if they want it, and they have to wait for at least a month and a half to two months if they want the goods.

EA has been waiting for this time, and after a month and a half, the competitor's machines will come up.

Knock knock!

There was a knock at the door of the conference room.

As soon as everyone turned around, they saw a little girl holding a document bag-like thing in her hand: "BOSS, Atari has filed a lawsuit against us for infringing their pong's patent ......".

Gu Siwei didn't think it was strange when he heard it, the game of marble and Atari's PONG are indeed somewhat similar, of course, you say that plagiarism is definitely not true, if Atari's PONG is compared to basketball, then E A's marble game is volleyball, and the same thing about the two is that they are both balls.

You can't say it's both balls, both are the same sport.

Gu Siwei also understands that there is no way for Atari to sue EA, it can't do nothing, let EA grab its business so comfortably, it will definitely make a move to curb such a momentum, of course, it can kill EA best.

Originally, the world of Gu Siwei, Atari's small life at this moment was in full swing, and a nourishing coin hangs badly, an EA suddenly appeared in this life, and it was so fierce, as soon as he made a move, Atari was concussed, can people not be mad.

Fighting a lawsuit, doing business in the United States are still afraid of lawsuits?

Besides, Lao Gu is not without money, his pocket is more than that of the bosses of Atari and a hundred times, and he is afraid of a lawsuit.

"Hire a good lawyer, if you want a good one, play with them" Gu Siwei directly said the decision.

A lawsuit is a trivial matter, but the game console that we are facing now is not mass-produced, which is a big thing.

"Have you asked any other companies?" Gu Siwei asked.

After speaking, Gu Siwei waited for others to answer, and then asked: "Did Intel ask?"

Gu Siwei doesn't know much about chips, and he doesn't know many companies.

At this time, Intel has appeared, not only appeared, but also alive and delicious, in 71 years the launch of the general-purpose chip 4004, last year launched the 8-bit 8008. It can be said that it is a new star in the field of chip manufacturing.

"It's not possible for them either," Jill directly poured cold water on Gu Siwei.

Intel has now taken off, and almost all the major chip companies in the United States have taken orders from the military, so there is really no production capacity for EA at this time.

"And what about AMD?"

Gu Siwei named the last company he knew could produce chips.

Jill shook his head again: "Including Deyi, Signitik, Mostek and other companies do not have the production capacity to give me chips."

Gu Siwei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said in his heart: Deyi seems to be a little imprinted, this guy is very famous, and everyone who is engaged in machines knows this company, but what the hell are the latter two?

At this time, Joe Hawkins gave Gu Siwei a cruel word.

"If it really doesn't work, or the company will produce its own chips."

Good guy, this sentence almost didn't scare Gu Siwei from the chair to the ground, and looked at Joe Hawkins to see if this guy had taken anyone's black money, and wanted to directly bring down our old Gu.

In Lao Gu's heart, what kind of company is playing with chips, all of them have fat waists and strong bodies, and they are thicker than Gu Siwei's waist when they take out a hair.

Gu Siwei here hasn't digested Joe's words, and Jill Amelio has also opened his mouth over there.

"It's a good idea, but it's probably a bit bigger upfront, about five million dollars, or even seven million dollars," Jill said.

Gu Siwei didn't notice the expressions of the other three people on the table at this time, he was shocked by the idea that EA was going to make chips himself, and at this moment, ten thousand grass and mud horses in his heart were spraying green saliva and rushing uncivilized words.

"Five million dollars, five million dollars...... What do you think...... Well? ”

Gu Siwei was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "You said that we will build our own chip factory for five million dollars?" ”

"It may not be enough, it will end up almost seven million dollars, maybe more," Jill said.

As soon as he heard about the $7 million, Gu Siwei immediately perked up, and said in his heart: If you had talked about what kind of chip factory you would build for $7 million, Lao Tzu would not be sleepy!

"Seven million dollars can be built?"

Gu Siwei still didn't believe it, and always felt that the foreign devil in front of him was shaking himself.

In fact, it is Gu Siwei's thinking that later generations limit him a little, he doesn't know that many American chip companies are now in the garage, there were only three people when Micron was founded in 78, the company's address was in the basement of the dental rash clinic, when the factory was built in 81, the factory was in an abandoned supermarket, the purification workshop was also rebuilt from cold storage, the equipment was bought second-hand, and it took 7 million US dollars to build it.

It's only been seventy-three years now, and Jill has already said that of course, the production line can't be compared with companies like Fairchild, but it's definitely enough for EA's needs.

Now there is only one sentence left in Gu Siwei's mind: Seven million dollars can let Lao Tzu play with chip manufacturing?

This guy, Gu Siwei's little heart was beating thumping, like beating a drum.

Chip manufacturing, put aside the future generations, you see people say that our family makes chips, I'm afraid that I won't have the face to tell you that my family is richer than you.

Oh, forgot, it's not a matter of money or money, it's a coin!

How to say it, Lao Gu couldn't hold it back.

Even if you throw money to play, as a person who has come back from decades, as long as you have this money in your pocket, who can resist such a temptation?

As for punching IBM, kicking Intel, and sitting on AMD, Gu Siwei didn't dare to think about it at all, he didn't play this business, for chips or something, he knew at most a binary, octal system, you want him to say how memory develops, how CPU progresses step by step, he knows a yarn.

Just when Gu Siwei was pondering, Jill and the other three were looking at their boss intently, and their hearts were now raised. They discussed it and felt that EA would have better have its own chip company, and it would be nice to meet EA's own needs.

There is a door!

Now the servants looked at their bosses and after looking at each other, they all felt that there was a drama in this matter, and the local tyrant boss might not be able to pay for the money.
