"Nintendo, a gaming company, has the ability to modify the instruction set of the CPU? Looking at the Nintendo COLORTVGAME6 game console in front of you, you can see that its current technology is very backward. How can it be possible to modify the CPU instruction set in two years? Even if the current instruction set is not complicated, it is not what Nintendo's current technical strength can do. Later Nintendo has never designed a cpu, and it must not have this strength. Could it be that Nintendo gave a design fee to a company , someone helped design it? Now globalization has been on the rise for a while, and the division of labor between upstream and downstream of the industry chain has become increasingly clear. Nintendo only produces game consoles, and the internal components are not necessarily produced by Nintendo itself. The graphics controller must be another company. Help Nintendo do it! It doesn't have the technical prowess."

Li Wansui thought of this and had some ideas.

"The 6502 CPU of mos technology in front of me is produced by the company mos technology. I have heard of Intel, AMD, these two computer cpu manufacturers in my later generations. However, the apple 2 uses the 6502 of mos technology. The company's reputation is still somewhat, and it is not certain that this company will go bankrupt in later generations."

"If you want to modify the cpu instruction set, you must have the cpu manufacturer, or obtain the relevant authorization from mos technology, and obtain some source code of the relevant cpu before you can modify it."

"Who did Nintendo look for, and which company did it change? He is a small RB company. Maybe it was a company that obtained the authorization of mos technology from RB to help change the instruction set, or it was an American company, and there is a high probability that these two A company in one country helped Nintendo to modify it. It may even be mos technology itself. It is necessary to inquire about this first. Which companies have been authorized by mos technology to modify the cpu and can modify the cpu. There should not be many companies with this ability. , There are only a few, one by one to inquire, first go to mos technology and ask to see if this company can take this job."

"Even if I found out, let other companies help to modify the instruction set and design the image controller. What bargaining chip do I use to impress others?"

"Money! It will definitely impress these companies, what is there if money is not enough? Use orders? Large-scale orders to impress these companies must be like t.m.d. A company that has obtained the authorization to modify the CPU instruction set will definitely produce CPU, or not only obtain the authorization. , If you don’t produce and sell CPUs, which company can afford to do such a thing? But don’t think too much, it is very likely that mos technology has not authorized others, and it may be possible to produce CPUs by eating alone.”

"The first step is to get in touch with mos technology and inquire about these details."

Li Wansui has specific ideas and is still thinking about it.

"Red and white machines must be made. This is much more profitable than making computer motherboards and then assembling computers. The market for red and white machines is so big that it can be said to be the best way to entertain family at the moment. Developed countries should have one for every family. As for computers, Apple is so popular that it has sold millions of units worldwide. Although computers represent the future, in the past few years, it is really not as profitable as red and white machines. Nintendo's red and white machines are not complicated, and the cpu model is still 6502. , is not higher than the current Alida 2600 CPU model, but only uses two pieces, one of which is an optimized graphics controller, and the market is very large. When it comes out, middle- and high-income families in Europe and the United States will be interested in buying it. One can sell hundreds of millions of units. Now that you get a computer, the market capacity is only one million units. The timing is a bit wrong. The cost of developing a motherboard is not necessarily lower than the cost of developing a graphics card. Even if you get a motherboard Now, I have to face competition from Apple, I don’t have anything, I don’t understand hardware technology, and I have a high probability of not being able to do Apple’s research and development, so I might as well wait a few years to learn from Michael Dell and take the channel road.”

"The red and white machine is different. When you come up with an image controller, you are the market leader, and you are far ahead in technology. You are invincible. But there is still a year before I can get the money to work on this image. The controller. Can you use the power? You have to think carefully. It’s a race against time! During the time when I was shooting Chu Liuxiang, I organized my thoughts. It’s best to use the power. It will take time for research and development. When did it come out, if it comes out next year, it would be unfortunate, the transmigrators can't grasp this opportunity, but they will lose adults."

"But how can I take advantage of it, I have no idea! To put it bluntly, I just need to let the R&D go one step ahead, and let the companies that have the strength to modify the instruction set do the R&D first. But I have no money, how can I have the strength to impress these companies? ."

Li Wansui couldn't stop rubbing his temples, sweating on his face. He didn't want to let this opportunity slip away. If Nintendo came up with it next year, Li Wansui would feel that he had lost a huge amount in vain. Opportunity.

As soon as he sat, he thought for nearly an hour without moving. The boss made money anyway, and he didn't care about Li Wansui sitting there.

Guan Zhilin watched Li Wansui alone and didn't say anything, sat there in deep thought, and was obediently not disturbing him.

Later, seeing that Li Wansui's head was covered with fine beads of sweat, she stood up, took out a tissue, and carefully wiped Li Wansui.

Li Wansui felt the warm hands on his head, his thoughts were interrupted, he woke up suddenly, smiled at Guan Zhilin, then raised his hand and looked at the table below, it was 6:30, and he was going to class soon.

Originally, it was agreed to cook for Guan Zhilin, but he was temporarily delayed by his own affairs.

Li Wansui was apologetic and said to Guan Zhilin, "Jiahui, I'm really sorry, I just thought about something, and I have class in the evening, so don't rush to eat. You're starving, why don't you call me? "

Guan Zhilin was not angry, but said, "It doesn't matter, brother, I saw that you were so absorbed in what you were thinking that I didn't call you because I was afraid that you were thinking about something serious. I'll accompany you to class, and we'll have supper after class in the evening, okay? "

Li Wansui didn't agree and said, "How can you not have dinner? You said you were hungry just now. Well, I'll go to class by myself. You can find a place to eat first, okay?"

"No, I'm going to the class too!" Guan Zhilin pouted and said coquettishly, with a reluctant expression on his face.

After thinking about it, Li Wansui agreed. He asked the boss for a bag and put various parts of the torn game machine into the bag. Now there is no time to recover, he didn't want to be late for class and hastily pulled the bag. Going into the school with Guan Zhilin.

Today's class is a practical class. I have a class in the computer classroom. The current progress is still on the basis of basic language. These things are pediatrics to Li Wansui. .

Li Wansui has been observing secretly to see if there are any talented students in the class. However, because he is still in the basic stage of teaching programming, the difficulty is very low. At present, he has not found such talents with high understanding of programming.

He wants to dig out some talents and save a certain amount of software talents for his future electronics company, such as game development talents needed by red and white machines.

When he was in a daze in the game store just now, he thought that he could make money by developing games by himself, so as to raise enough money for the development of the graphics controller, but he felt that this was unrealistic.

The most important thing is cost and channels. Today's game development is not like later generations. You create a stand-alone game, upload it directly to various platforms on the Internet, and then you can make money for a fee.

The current game carrier medium is the game card. Even like the Nintendo COLORTVGAME6, the game is directly stored inside the game console. If it is such a platform, the games written by Li Wansui cannot run on it.

And Yalida's game platform is the plug-in card type familiar to Li Wansui, which can sell games. Li Wansui just bought 2 game cards. The price is not cheap. It costs 150 yuan a piece. Li Wansui opened a game card and took a look. Inside is a read-only ROM memory chip, which is used to store games.

He gave up this idea after thinking about it, and the idea of ​​developing games to make money is somewhat taken for granted.

Aside from the technical difficulties of developing games, it is still waiting to be overcome by oneself. It is said that the game program has been written, and it has to be copied to each game card. It is necessary to contact the manufacturer of the game card to produce the game card. The price of rom memory will not be cheap in future generations, let alone now. In this way, even if 10,000 game cards are initially produced, it will cost a lot of money. Then it is necessary to build or borrow other people's channels for distribution, and the channel costs are not low.

In this way, the cost is not what he can afford now. It will take several months to learn and write code, and then after the game comes out, invest a lot of money to promote and sell the game, and when the game has sales, the channels It will take some time for the company to collect the money, and it will take a while to fully generate profits. It may be more than half a year later. And the game is also released on other companies' game platforms, and those companies also take profits. The most important thing is that this is the first batch of production game cards sold, at most tens of thousands of cards, how much money can you make?

The amount of investment is not small, not necessarily smaller than the investment in getting a graphics controller. The games created are very popular, and they are not as profitable as the red and white machines. When your own red and white machines come out, after launching those classic games of later generations, you can quickly make yourself The platform that dominates the market, isn't the effect better? Why bother to get some classic games out, run them on other people's game platforms, and increase user stickiness for other people's platforms, wouldn't it make it difficult to promote their own red and white machines in the future?

…

Li Wansui inspected the students in the class who were practicing on the computer, but he was always thinking about his red and white computer plan.

This market is so exciting. Compared with the computer market, the scale of this market is dozens of times larger than the computer that has just appeared. Now the computer is too backward, and there are very few people who need it. Computers are a lot cheaper, and families with a little money will have one. Game consoles are the best way to entertain families in this era.

Li Wansui has been thinking hard if he can get mos technology or other companies to help him develop the most critical image controller first. This kind of research and development will take at least half a year. Once the gambling money is in place, the production and sales can be organized. .

Before you know it, today's class is over. The bell after class remembered that Li Wansui called out the get out of class and said goodbye to his classmates. He concluded with a wry smile: "It's still a matter of money. I have a few thousand dollars now, and the travel expenses to the United States are not enough. It really hurts. Chu Liuxiang also It will be finished in about two months, and after Chu Liuxiang is filmed, it is time to inquire about this matter, and we must get out the red and white machine before Nintendo."

…

Guan Zhilin was placed in a corner by Li Wansui, UU reading www.uukanshu. She sat on the com for three hours, and she couldn't play games on the computer. The school's computers were not enough for the students, so Li Wansui couldn't have arranged for her to be on the computer because of public or private reasons.

However, even if she was sitting in the corner, Guan Zhilin's beauty was the focus. From time to time in class, young male classmates would look at her secretly, but the students all knew that this was a girl brought over by the teacher, and no one dared to strike up a conversation with her.

She was very bored until the end of get out of class, and she immediately came over, took Li Wansui's hand, rubbed her belly, and said coquettishly, "Brother, let's have supper, Jiahui is going to starve to death."

Li Wansui let go of his troubles, the car must have a way to the front of the mountain, and he no longer thought about the red and white machines. He thought about things by himself this night, and somewhat left Guan Zhilin in the cold. He smiled and said, "Okay, I'm quite hungry too. Treat Jiahui to a delicious meal tonight."

After finishing speaking, carrying something, he and Guan Zhilin walked outside the school.

There are many food stalls next to the university. The two found a seafood stall. Li Wansui ordered a few dishes and sat down.

Guan Zhilin said: "Brother, I haven't asked you how Chu Liuxiang's ratings are?"

She still can't let go of Li Wansui's career.

Li Wansui said: "37%, it's still okay."

"Hey, it's still a lot worse than "The Change of the Silkworm". If "The Change of the Silkworm" was not so powerful, it would be great if the ratings could drop a lot." After all, Guan Zhilin is young and does not know much about the film and television industry. The 37% viewership rate of one episode shows that Chu Liuxiang still has great potential. She is not very good at comforting people and said some childish words.

Li Wansui listened to Guan Zhilin's words, and said with a shrewdness, "What did you say?"

As soon as he was reminded by Guan Zhilin's words, he vaguely had an idea, an idea of ​​making a fortune.
