In mid-July, Zhonghai.

Although the development of "The True Story of Aba" continues, Chen Ba has already left Jiangning and drove to the headquarters of Mirage Electronics.

There's a big event today!

After a long wait, Mirage is ready to release a 7090Ti graphics card for the PC market.

Of course, a release is a release......

The press conference was held just to explain to the majority of players that the graphics card market ushered in a new player - Mirage Electronics, as for when this graphics card called "Sword God 7090Ti" will be available, it is still an unknown.

The parameters are fine in all respects.

After all, it is the first graphics card made by Mirage Electronics, and the stacking must be very sincere, and the expected pricing is also quite powerful.

Other competitor products with the same core frequency and video memory specifications are mostly priced at eight or nine thousand, and the "Sword God 7090Ti" 36G version of Mirage Electronics is only 6499 yuan!

"So powerful?"

Guo Mo, who swiped this news by chance, didn't plan to change the graphics card, but this price still made him feel fierce.

After all, you can buy 7090Ti for 6,000 and a half, which is nearly 2,000 yuan cheaper than that of a competitor.

It just so happens that the 60 series graphics card he is using now is also a little out of step with the times, and he can take this opportunity to upgrade it to the 70 series.

After Guo Mo had an idea, he immediately opened the homepage of Xianyu Digital, intending to buy a "Sword God" graphics card.

Who knows......

This thing can only be pre-ordered now, and it is not in stock at all! And if you pre-order, the specific delivery date is not even known to the customer service of Xianyu Digital.

"Dear, the current production capacity is insufficient and the new product launch requires multiple rounds of testing ovens, please understand......"

The explanation given by Xianyu Digital is that as a new brand and new player in the field of graphics cards, Mirage Electronics' production capacity is indeed very stretched, even if Nvidia and AMD give enough chips, they still can't produce it.

It's good to have 2,000 graphics cards in the early stock!

In fact...... The truth is far more cruel than Guo Mo thought, and there are only 167 "Sword God 7090Ti" in the first batch of trial production of Mirage Electronics.

Yes, 167 sheets!

The first batch is less than 200 copies, and the second batch is less than 500 copies, and these two batches of goods are either given away to game studios at home and abroad, or used for extreme tests or bright machine baking, and consumers can't buy them anyway.

Chen Ba also knows this problem, so he requires the third batch of "Sword God" graphics cards to be produced as much as possible to supply the market demand, and the number must not be less than 2000 pieces!

Then there is the fourth batch, which is not less than five thousand......

After the fourth batch is produced, it's almost time to take a break and ponder the sub-flagship "Juggernaut" series and the "Sword Demon" and "Sword Queen" series graphics cards.

After all, Sword God is a top-level flagship graphics card, with a high price and high configuration, and the market demand may not be much, and the production of six or seven thousand graphics cards is almost enough to sell.

"Sword God is a high-end graphics card, the demand is not so big, and after all, Mirage Electronics is the first time to make a graphics card, many consumers don't trust the process and design, so the sales will be very low, just do it."

Chen Ba instructed: "The first time you enter the graphics card field, you should focus on creating the "Sword Queen" series represented by the 7060 and 7060Ti. ”

This is the main force of shipment!

Not kidding, when a new graphics card is released every year, it seems that there is a lot of noise around 90 and 80 on the Internet, and what is said about squeezing toothpaste configuration reverse upgrade, etc., the popularity is simply unprecedented.

But in fact, the main contributors to the sales of each generation of graphics cards are basically the 60 and 60Ti cards, and AMD is the X600 series.

Anyway, it's always the graphics cards in the 2000-4000 price range that sell the most.

Chen Ba believes that the "Sword God" series of cards, which are mainly high-end flagships, can be almost done casually. Mirage Electronics wants to gain a firm foothold in the field of PC hardware, and the "Sword Queen" series is the absolute trump card!

"We are new players, we are making graphics cards for the first time, and we don't have so many loyal fans and fans to support us, so if we want to open up the market, the best strategy is to ...... at a low price."

"Yes!"

Chen Ba agreed: "In exchange for market and sales at low prices, this approach is no problem, we are a new brand, and we always have to give consumers some profits for the first time." ”

Not to mention making money, the first time he entered the market, Chen Ba's requirement for Mirage Electronics was "don't lose too much".

That's right!

It's acceptable to make a little profit, or even sell it at cost price and lose some freight, after all, if a new brand wants to rise, it must first sell the graphics card, right?

There is no preferential price, and the brand does not have the blessing of faith like "beating people", why should consumers buy your card?

"That's right, Mr. Chen!"

"After our graphics card is released, it will definitely be bought and tested by many people, and the means of testing is to play games in addition to baking and rendering, and most likely is to play games......"

Speaking of this, several executives of Mirage Electronics showed a tacit smile and looked at the leading bully in unison.

The new graphics card is in hand, which must not be played to test the frame rate changes and heating conditions?

What games to play?

The more popular games on the market, except for the goose factory and the pig factory, are basically from Tianba Studio, that is, the brother company of Mirage Electronics.

So here's the problem.

Everyone is from their own family, and in the final analysis, they all work for Brother Ba, so it's no problem to take care of your own people, right?

A graphics card with the same specification and frequency of video memory, my price is lower than yours, and when playing games such as "Star Emperor 2" or "Xiuzhen Fantasy", "Speed Hurricane", "Pinball Storm" and other games, the frame rate is still higher than yours, so shouldn't it sell well?

"Don't worry, I'm prepared."

Chen Ba signaled to everyone to rest assured, he had already arranged for this, and had already passed the in-depth optimization module of the Tiehanhan system in advance, and marked all its games with "special optimization" patches.

And that's not all.

In-game optimization is one thing, and if you want to open up the gap, on the other hand, optimization at the hardware driver level must not be missing.

The two-pronged approach ensures that the frame rate of the graphics card of Mirage Electronics is one notch higher than that of other graphics cards when playing games under the banner of Tianba!

Someone else's 7060 can only run 2K60 frames, but Mirage Electronics' Sword Ji 7060 can run 4K70-80 frames, isn't this tulle?

The most annoying thing is that the price of the Sword Ji 7060 is a few hundred yuan cheaper than the 7060 of a friend......

Be reasonable!

After this set of combination punches, Chen Ba felt that as long as players were not stupid, they would give priority to the new brand Mirage Electronics when buying a new graphics card.

In this way, the first battle of Mirage Electronics to enter the PC hardware market can almost be won.

Probably the only problem is......

After playing the graphics card driver given by Chen Ba, will this batch of graphics cards of Mirage Electronics have the same unknown bugs as the "Galaxy Suit"?

Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope!

After learning that Brother Ba wanted to use the knife on the drivers of this batch of graphics cards, and what kind of chicken blood drive was done, the faces of several people in charge of Mirage Electronics suddenly changed greatly.

"No, no!"

"The driver is still our own, if you do it, if there is a bug like the Galaxy suit, the problem will be serious......"

This is the core hardware of the graphics card, which costs thousands of dollars and is housed in the computer case!

If you use the graphics card driver given by Chen Ba, and finally cause problems with the graphics card, then Mirage Electronics will really die before you can get started.

This is also the reason why everyone tried their best to dissuade them and said that they would not agree to anything.

No way!

The time of the Galaxy suit, I was really scared of everyone. Before being sure that the graphics card driver written by Chen Ba was 100% safe, Mirage Electronics said that it would not dare to use this driver.

"But ......"

Chen Ba understands their concerns, but he also said that if it is not equipped with a graphics card driver, the final optimization effect may not be so good just by optimizing it in the game.

"It's okay, it's enough."

"Optimize it casually, so that the frame rate of our graphics card game is higher than that of our friends, as for 10 frames higher or 20 frames higher, the effect is the same."

This is not false at all.

Mirage graphics cards don't need to be optimized to an extreme degree, they just need to be optimized better than the same level graphics cards of competitors.

It's worse than that, who wouldn't?

Since the level of the frame rate is not as big as imagined, there is no need to use the driver provided by Brother Ba on the graphics card.

"Okay, then don't fix the driver."

Chen Ba sighed, his expression was slightly regretful: "But then again, my drivers have been written, if I can't install them, wouldn't it be a waste?" ”

"What do you mean ......"

"So be it! Go back to the official website and hang up the "chicken blood graphics card driver" I wrote for users to download and install. ”

Chen Ba explained: "Before downloading and installing, make a pop-up window to remind the user, just say that there may be unknown bugs in this driver, and if there is an accident, you will not be responsible for it." ”

"That's fine......"

This request is not too much, after all, it is just to provide a special driver version selection, and it is not an official recommendation, you can't love it.

Anyway, the pros and cons are all told to you.

The driver of this graphics card is not an official version, and there may be unknown problems after installation. The advantage is that after the graphics card driver is installed, you can get the extreme frame rate when playing Tianba games, which is silky smooth and smooth without stuttering.

Let the players choose.

If you're willing to be a guinea pig and take a little risk for a smoother and silkier gaming experience, then you can download and install it!

Anyway, the consequences are made clear to you, go back and install the driver, no matter what outrageous bugs or vulnerabilities appear, don't be surprised, because this is normal.

……

After returning to Jiangning from Zhonghai, Chen Ba first went to the hospital to visit Lao Wang.

This is Lao Chen's request, saying that he has a hot fight with Wang Ya, but rarely finds time to visit his future father-in-law, which is not kind enough.

"What future father-in-law?"

Chen Ba complained: "I haven't written the eight characters yet, so you will arrange a name for me?" ”

"Then tell me, what is the current situation between you and Wang Ya? The conversation is so hot, don't you two have a place to go? ”

"Nowhere to go!"

Chen Ba shook his head and denied: "She just took over a large company, lacks management experience, and often comes to me to learn from experience." ”

"Ah......h

When Lao Chen learned the truth, he scolded with hatred: "I thought you two talked about it, but it turned out that you two talked about all about work?" ”

"What if it weren't?"

Chen Ba was also speechless, what else could he talk about if he didn't talk about work, could he talk about when Lao Wang hiccuped?

He understands Lao Chen's thoughts.

But to tell the truth, Chen Ba and Wang Ya are really friends, and there is no spark of love at all.

"You don't really like men, do you? That Yang Dong is married, are you still thinking about him? Old Chen said in shock.

Chen Ba: "??? ”

Who the hell is spreading rumors that he likes men? Rumors are rumors, why is it always Brother Dong who has scandals with him?

Isn't it okay to change people?

"I ...... I don't know how to describe it, anyway, it's hard to like someone again, no matter how beautiful she is. ”

After all, it was his own father, and Chen Ba couldn't bear to see him working hard for his marriage, so he told the truth.

"Frigidity?"

Lao Chen frowned: "How did you get this disease?" Wait a minute, after reading Lao Wang, you go to the doctor and ask, if you are sick, you will be treated, you can't drag it ......"

Chen Ba was completely speechless.

He can see that Lao Chen should not give up until he reaches his goal, no matter what he says, it is useless.

"I'll try my best!"

"I'll give you an answer at the end of the year, whether it's Wang Ya or anyone else, in short, I'll bring someone back this year to celebrate the New Year together."

"You're looking for an actor to lie to me, right?"

"If you don't look for an actor, the first target is Wang Ya, who you are optimistic about, and the second is someone else."

Chen Ba said frankly: "I'll say the ugly things first, I'll give you a chance to hold your grandson, but don't interfere in other aspects." ”

Isn't it just hugging your grandson!

Whether it is Lao Chen, lying in the ICU ward, Lao Wang, who is critically ill but is getting more and more energetic every day, is nothing more than this matter on his mind.

Then spread out the words and say that Wang Ya has no feelings for him, but they can come together because of interests or "the right match".

When the time comes, give birth to two children, one surnamed Chen and the other surnamed Wang, everyone will be happy!

He felt that Lao Chen should not object to this suggestion.

Even to put it mildly, the suggestion put forward by Chen Ba also happened to be the wish that Comrade Wang wanted to achieve the most on the hospital bed.

Affection?

The family background of both parties is here, and it is undoubtedly an extremely luxurious thing to talk about feelings. Lao Wang wanted to find a husband for Wang Ya who was "the right person", but he was worried that he would be old and his daughter would not be able to keep this home in the future.

Chen Ba simply fulfilled him.

Anyway, Lao Chen is urging him tightly, and he can also take this opportunity to satisfy Lao Chen's desire to hold his grandson.

As for Wang Ya not being the person he likes, it doesn't matter, after all, the person he really likes has already been married.

"A word is a certainty, double happiness is coming!"

Sure enough, when Chen Ba told Lao Wang his idea, Lao Wang immediately clapped his hands in agreement, without even the slightest hesitation.

So smooth?

Chen Ba was a little surprised, he didn't expect Lao Wang to agree so quickly.

He guessed that Lao Wang would agree to this proposal, after all, the old thing had been eyeing him for a long time, and he was afraid that he would wake up laughing when he dreamed at night.

But agree to agree, doesn't this old thing even bother to pretend?

The ancient emperor ascended the throne and paid attention to a three-way resignation, how to get to Lao Wang, marrying a daughter is as simple as inviting guests to dinner?

No......

This old Deng is pretending to be sick, right?

Chen Ba, who hadn't thought about it in this regard, saw Lao Wang's ruddy face and instantly realized something.
