——Production of game consoles.
On this day in 1990, with the signing of the Plaza Accord between the United States and Japan several years ago, the Japanese yen appreciated significantly against the US dollar. This caused the entire Japanese population to go on a spree, and they began to import large quantities of American goods that were expensive in the past but now had greatly reduced prices.
This is where Japan's bubble economy started.
After all, from an observer's perspective, the amount of money in the hands of every resident has increased significantly out of thin air, and the consumption of high-end behaviors such as traveling abroad and eating imported goods has been cut in half.
The country is in a frenzy and the people are in a frenzy.
But in this carnival, there are always some people who cannot be happy at all.
The sharp appreciation of the domestic currency has led to a serious decline in profits in the export industry.
In the past, Japan's semiconductor industry dumped large quantities of products to the United States at low prices and high quality.
But with the sharp appreciation of the Japanese yen, the low prices are no longer there.
This trend is not yet obvious in the entire semiconductor industry. High-end semiconductors produced by large high-end enterprises still have fixed sales channels.
But if we shift our focus to those small companies.
They can no longer sustain themselves.
They were surprised to find that at the current exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the US dollar, if they sold at the original selling price, the US dollars they earned from exporting products, converted into Japanese yen, would not be enough to offset the cost of producing and transporting the products.
In a word, the more you sell, the more you lose.
If you choose to raise prices, no one will buy your products.
Who would choose not to raise prices and do something that would lose money?
So these companies are stuck there.
If it weren't for the current loose bank policies that allow them to still maintain production through loans, most companies would have collapsed at the first opportunity.
At this time, the choice of most semiconductor companies is to reduce the production capacity of their factories to the minimum, throw the company's cash flow into the stock market and real estate, and rely on the sharp rise in bubbles to maintain the operation of the company.
However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not a long-term solution.
"You want to design a machine and expect to produce millions of them?"
A processing factory in the suburbs of Guanbuzi City.
The old factory manager, Seo Wada, looked at the young man in front of him with a troubled look on his face.
Hei Tong Xian Hu: "The machine is just the beginning. There will be a variety of cassettes released later. Depending on the quality, the factory will need to produce tens to hundreds of thousands of integrated circuits."
Seo Wada: "..."
Logically speaking, if the person in front of him didn't have the background of the Liangyi family, he would have kicked the other person away by now.
No, under normal circumstances, even the Liangyi family has no right to point fingers at an old man who provides a large number of jobs and tax revenue for the city.
but--
Consider the factories that still operate at minimum speed today.
Think of the company funds that are dwindling by the minute.
Seo Wada is an old man. Perhaps because of his outdated ideas, he is not interested in the financial issues that young people talk about today.
How can money come out of thin air?
How can you make money without selling products?
Is it possible not to pay back the borrowed money?
Everything you get for nothing just comes at a price you haven't realized yet.
Because of the uneasiness in his heart, unlike those who gave up, he chose to take the initiative to develop the local market.
The export market in the United States is unable to sell due to changes in exchange rates.
However, in Japan, it may be possible to find a breakthrough after the transportation costs are waived.
It was at this time that Hei Tong Xian Hu and he came into contact through the bridge setup by the Liang Yi family.
The old factory manager had no way of refusing Hei Tong Xian Hu.
Although what this guy said was a bit exaggerated, but after all, even if there is even the slightest possibility that he can be caught now, you can't give up.
Seo Wada: "Tell me your request first. If it's reasonable, I can contact some old friends to help. They are quite idle at this time and should have time to earn some extra money."
Heitong Xianhu: “!”
The young man in black's eyes lit up quickly at this moment.
This is great. He has been waiting for so long, isn’t he waiting for the other party to say this?
Otherwise, why would he need to pretend to be cool and deliberately provoke the other party?
Time travelers are not omnipotent. At least as a programmer in his previous life, Hei Tong Xian Hu knows nothing about the internal structure of the host.
But he also knew very well that the game consoles of the past, whether from Sega, Sony, or Nintendo, at least around 1990, were the pure technological crystallization of the combined energies of multiple parties.
In the past, there was always a popular saying on the Internet: electronic games are one of the important driving forces for hardware development.
Not to mention how much truth there is in these words, it is just a compliment to these lousy gamers.
At least this can explain to a certain extent the technical content of game consoles in the early stages of the development of the game industry.
Kurogiri Kanko's face was filled with eagerness: "What kind of people can Mr. Seo contact?"
The old man narrowed his eyes as he looked at Hei Tong Xian Hu who was quickly becoming enthusiastic.
He didn't dislike this enthusiasm at all.
It would be better to say that the enthusiasm of the young man in front of him made his words more credible.
Thinking of this, the old man gradually perked up.
He began to tell Hei Tong Xian Hu about the information of some old friends he knew.
While listening, Hei Tong Xian Hu wrote his own demand report related to game consoles with the assistance of the professional factory manager.
He doesn't know much about technology.
In his original idea, his game console should be something like the Nintendo FC, a machine that can run Super Mario.
But it was completely beyond Hei Tong Xianhu's expectations.
Under the guidance of the two old factory managers, he found that he seemed to be able to make many further progress. The development dream of this third-world computer graphics field was far higher than he had imagined.
Not to mention running 2D Mario, even 3D action games are not smooth at all.
According to the conversation with the uncle in front of him, Hei Tong Xianhu seriously suspected that the graphics processing performance of this thing had reached or even surpassed the level of PS2, which is a game console at the level of 00.
Don't underestimate the gap of these ten years.
According to Moore's Law, the number of transistors that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit doubles approximately every 18 to 24 months. In other words, processor performance doubles approximately every two years, while the price drops to half of its previous level.
The performance and price gap between the consoles produced in 00 and 90 is, even at the lowest estimate, 2 to the fifth power, or 5 times.
So, in this world, the concept of electronic games is still at the stage of pixel games like Snake.
Why is graphics processing technology developing so fast?
It's impossible to have a large group of people who do nothing all day long but figure out how to use computers to draw all kinds of pictures, and have extremely high requirements for the complexity and three-dimensionality of the pictures.
The doubts in his heart that were full of complaints were temporarily suppressed by Hei Tong Xian Hu.
QUN Yingyang? Liu 《?③ 亻 Your other wife is the
No matter what, the current situation is a good thing for him.
P.S.: The console in Hei Tong Xian Hu's hand is actually 20 years behind what he expected, which is at least 1024 times older. The Nintendo Famicom running 2D Mario was from 1983.
The protagonist has no idea of the console's year. Well, I believe many readers don't know either, so I'll explain it to you.
In general, once the protagonist's game console is completed, it should be able to run The Elder Scrolls 4 without any problems.
Volume 1: Chapter 11: Anxious Waiting
As life gets better and better, there will naturally be more and more festivals. People need to celebrate festivals to anchor the beauty of their lives.
It seems that by following the corresponding rules during the festival, one can make one's own style rise along with the festival.
Japan has three Children's Days.
They are Girls' Day on March 3rd, Boys' Day on May 5th, and Shichi-Go-San Day on November 15th, which is used to celebrate children aged three, five, and seven.
The release date chosen by Kuroto Kanko for the toy "Super Monster Hand" is Boys' Day around May 5th.
Boys at this time can usually get gifts from their parents.
Although there are still many problems to be solved in the development of game consoles and the recruitment of personnel for subsequent game production.
But on this day, both Kurotoshi Kanhu and Ryougi Ori put down their current work and returned to Kurotoshi's residence early.
In a small room covered with tatami mats.
The lights were turned on, and the sound of a comedian laughing could be heard from the old big-headed TV.
Ryougi Shiki lay on the sofa, tossing and turning like a cat.
Although Kuroto Kanko was looking at the TV, most of his attention was always on the rolling phone in the room.
According to the arrangement between him and Liangyizhi, the sales situation of each distribution point will be reported at around this time.
Click, click, click~
The clock on the wall keeps ticking.
Ryougi Shiki, who was tossing and turning on the sofa, raised her head and looked at Kuroto Kanhu.
"You've been acting so confident, I thought you wouldn't be nervous."
Ryougi Shiki turned over and lay face up on the sofa, her head close to Kurogane Kanko's thigh.
She turned her head to look at Kuroto Xianhu above and spoke.
"Confidence and nervousness are two different things. Isn't it normal to be worried at a time like this?"
He exhaled softly.
Perhaps because someone was talking, the tension in Hei Tong Xian Hu's heart was slightly relieved.
He did not simply plagiarize. Before choosing his first pot of gold, he had done relevant market research.
Before this point, he actually didn't expect that he would be so nervous.
Obviously, there are still many things that need to be dealt with on the main medical side, but after receiving this dream today, I am still uneasy.
After all, he was a program director in his previous life and had witnessed many big events and product launches. He shouldn't be nervous about this matter.
Is it because of the new body?
A young body brings young hormones, young thoughts, and also the tension unique to youth.
Who knows, but there's nothing wrong with it.
Heitong Xianhu is quite satisfied with himself now.
No real adult will not miss his youth, the high-spirited self, the nervous self with a pounding heart.
Hei Tong Xianhu quite enjoyed this feeling and the tension in front of him.
"Are you comforting yourself?"
Ryougi Shiki, who was standing by, looked at Kuroto Kanhu, jumped up and walked to the refrigerator, took out a strawberry-flavored Haagen-Dazs and threw it to the other party.
"Oh, thanks."
Hei Tong Xian Hu waved without any hesitation.
He paid for the things himself, so why should he be polite to the cat at home?
"Just think of it as the nagging of a young and mature person." He responded to Ryougi Shiki's question.
How can I enjoy it? I'm so nervous.
He actually couldn't wait to hear someone tell him the good news.
