Just as everyone was busy moving the wine upstairs, the two principals walked away while talking and laughing at the electronic game club.
This time they did not come to inspect the results, but wanted to know what Lin Ping had plans for the next time. After all, the game console had been developed according to his wishes.
When the teachers and professors saw the arrival of the two principals, they all avoided them in a tacit understanding.
"How is this? Is this thing different from what you asked for?" President Liu of the Qing Dynasty asked with concern.
"Very good, at least for now, there are no major mistakes. Now this machine can only be considered a engineering prototype. I need to find a mold manufacturer to produce the molds of this machine. After all, if you want to sell it, you can't put it on the shelves so frankly." Lin Ping pointed to the circuit board connected to the TV on the table.
"There is no problem with this. You don't even need to find a manufacturer. Our school can help you. You just need to draw sketches and give data, and there will naturally be someone to help you do all this." Principal Zhou of the North School said calmly.
Lin Ping understood that the two of them wanted to see him so urgently, but they just wanted to ask about their next actions. However, the two old men obviously wanted to be more natural and easy-going.
"This is a Citibank check of US$10 million, and this is the deposit that EA Games Company wants to purchase game consoles from our Tianxin Technology." Lin Ping was not in a mood to take a turn and took out 10 bank checks with a denomination of US$1 million.
Of course, Lin Ping could not directly put the 20 million yuan into Tianxin Technology for this money.
If it is the money in Tianxin Technology Company's accounts, Lin Ping will not have any problems with investing in production directly with the money.
However, this money is obtained by EA Games's sales of animation copyrights, and the money belongs to EA Games'.
From a legal perspective, if Lin Ping directly takes the money without signing any sales contract, he will be placed on the books of Tianxin Technology Company, which is an illegal misappropriation of funds. However, the shareholder of EA Game Company is Lin Ping himself. If there is a second shareholder, as long as someone sues Lin Ping, it is definitely a financial crime.
At this moment, even if Lin Ping had the intention to serve the country, he would not have been able to use this money to invest in Tianxin Technology in an unknown way.
If you put your money on the books of Tianxin Technology, it is a capital increase, and if you invest $20 million in the books of the company, if these two universities do not follow up, their shares will be diluted. Now each of them holds 10%, it is very likely that after Lin Ping invests the 20 million US dollars, the shares they hold will be reduced to 5% or even less, depending on the company's market value.
When Lin Ping took out the check from his bag, the two principals' facial expressions were just peaceful and natural, but their faces changed drastically after seeing the check.
"This...this..." Principal Zhou said two words in a row, but he was embarrassed to say the following words.
Lin Ping also understood that he just wanted to ask if this is true?
"Before I left the Harbor City, I had called the Foreign Exchange Administration. Tomorrow I will go to the Foreign Exchange Administration for Foreign Exchange. After the exchange is completed, the money will be included in my personal bank account. I wonder if I am considered the richest individual in the country at this moment? "Lin Ping knew that in this era, all the procedures involved in the Foreign Exchange Administration were complicated, and I am afraid that some people would be busy tomorrow.
The two principals picked up the 10 checks and read them, and then slowly put them back on the table.
"So, have you decided to start production immediately?" Principal Liu of the Qing Dynasty did not ask the origin of the money, but was concerned about whether Lin Ping would start production immediately?
"That's right, before visiting the Administration of Foreign Exchange tomorrow, I will go to the Fourth Machinery Department for a walk. Don't look at this small game console, I'm afraid that the entire country's semiconductor industry will serve me in the future." Lin Ping was not worried about the start of the factory, but about the serious shortage of supply of the semiconductor industry in the entire country.
In this era, the two major semiconductor industry countries in the world are the first one on the other side of the ocean, and the second one is the Neon Country.
When Nintendo's red and white phones emerged, in 1985, a company in Nintendo took up about 50% of the supply of electronic components in the Neon Kingdom semiconductor industry.
A small commercial company can supply the entire country's semiconductor industry, and the current national semiconductor industry is obviously still a certain gap with the Neon Kingdom in 1985, and this gap is quite obvious.
Lin Ping does not want to purchase electronic component accessories from foreign companies. After all, only by allowing domestic electronic component manufacturers to make money can they be able to develop next-generation technologies.
However, once the supply in the electronic game industry is insufficient, it is easy for others to eat up the market. Lin Ping is worried that after his red and white machine emerges, he will successfully make the global game market bigger and stronger, but he doesn't have that big belly to eat all of it. In addition, game consoles and game cartridges are too easy to pirate. When Nintendo made a fortune abroad, there was a domestic person named Xiaobawang who used counterfeit and pirated game orders to reach annual sales of over 100 million in the late 1980s. Xiaobawang can do this, and small foreign factories will naturally not miss such business opportunities.
Now he ran to the Fourth Machinery Department with a check of only US$10 million and asked the leaders to expand production of the national semiconductor industry. It is estimated that the leaders will take off their shoes and beat Lin Ping halfway to death.
Not to mention Lin Ping, even if he came to an external company, the blond and blue-eyed foreigner made this request, the leaders of the Fourth Machinery Department would give him a look, which means going to your grandma.
Because in this era, people simply cannot imagine a small game company that can allow the entire country's semiconductor industry to serve it.
"..." The two principals obviously did not understand what Lin Ping said, but they did not think that Lin Ping would be so arrogant that he would say such bastard words with 10 million US dollars. The two looked at Lin Ping with confusion, waiting for him to explain.
"How should I explain to your two elders? Let's put it this way, within one year, I have to get 5 million chips of 8086 chips from Shanghai Wireless Electronics Factory No. 5. Do you think it has such production capacity? 5 million chips means 5 million game consoles. Look at the pile of components on this circuit board, do you think the domestic production can supply me? If the domestic production is seriously insufficient, I force me to buy from abroad and let foreigners earn this money in vain. I don't want to see such a thing, I'm afraid your two elders will not appear like they see such a scene. "Lin Ping was full of confidence when he spoke. But behind this confidence, he was helpless because Lin Ping was 100% sure that the current domestic production was unable to meet his needs at all.
When Nintendo launched red and white machines, there was not much selectivity for game content. Therefore, it was impossible for game consoles to grow explosively when they were launched for interviews. However, game consoles did not grow explosively, so there was naturally not such great pressure on the production side.
Now, once Lin Ping launches the red and white machine, he may launch more than a dozen super classic games in one go.
Game consoles are not the main source of money, but the real money is these game cartridges. Under the stimulation of these classic games, the market will expand rapidly like a balloon.
Nintendo sold 60 million red and white machines back then. The number of games at that time was like squeezing toothpaste, which was born and gave birth to this market bit by bit.
Now Lin Ping has the ability to instantly pull the market to a super level. If there is a shortage of supply at this time, it will probably only make others cheap. After all, in two years, Nintendo will produce exactly the same game performance console as it does. Some companies may even produce products with stronger performance than their own game console.
"..." The two principals fell silent again. They couldn't grasp how much Lin Ping could achieve this sentence. Is this really possible for 5 million game consoles a year?
However, something even more unlikely has happened to them. Who would have thought that this junior college student could pretend to be a professor and also obtained a formal appointment letter?
What’s strange is that this technical secondary school student is doing well and has received such a large sum of money, which is a total of 10 million US dollars.
At first, everyone was just amazed at his speech in the automotive field. But now we have to admit that this person is indeed very capable. If what he said was true, the business opportunities this led would be unimaginable.
If 5 million game consoles can be sold a year, then the two schools each hold 10% of the shares, and the money they can get in the future is simply astronomical.
"Don't stay out of it. Don't forget that this company also has shares in your two universities. By the way, please help Principal Zhou install a telephone in my dormitory, which can call the outside line. I want to contact Hong Kong City anytime and anywhere. After all, we are always doing tens of millions of dollars now. If we can't communicate in time, this loss may be..." Lin Ping did not finish his words, but Principal Zhou already understood that there was no need for him to say more.
"There is no problem with the phone number, it just cannot be installed in your dormitory. This will not be a good effect. Let's do it, I'll help you re-adjust a dormitory. It's quieter and safer. After all, there is no second person in the country who dares to carry such a large sum of money." When Principal Zhou said this, he couldn't help looking at the 10 checks again.
Chapter completed!
