Chapter 84 The Charm of Money
"Then what do Xie Sheng think?" Yu Youcheng looked at Xie Changhua and asked after thinking for a while.
Thinking about his treatment in the United States in recent years, he strongly agreed with Xie Changhua's view.
Seeing that the other party had already listened, Xie Changhua smiled and said: "My plan is that we will not be at the forefront, but we will not give up personal computers and wait for the opportunity."
"IBM is preparing to launch its own personal computer next year. With IBM's strength, both companies and Apple will definitely suffer losses."
"The most important thing is that current manufacturers don't seem to pay much attention to microprocessors, and they just focus on developing memories. As long as we seize this opportunity and challenge and devote ourselves to research and development in this area, we will have the opportunity to overtake in corners."
"Yu Sheng, Intel is a partner of IBM, don't you want to prove to them that you are right!"
In 1981, the behemoth IBM entered the personal computer market. In order to compete with Apple in the market, coupled with its impatience with antitrust litigation, it opened up the technical research and development information for personal computers in 1982.
This suddenly changed the landscape of the personal computer industry. Many compatible devices were developed, and compatible machines also
Broken head.
It was precisely because of this fascinating operation that personal computers developed, and Microsoft and Intel also relied on IBM to gain access to the compatible machine market.
Later, the two added fuel to the fire, causing IBM to be driven out of the market by compatible machines. The entire competition lasted for decades.
Otherwise, if IBM changes chip manufacturers, Intel and Microsoft will be half-finished. After all, they are also afraid of liquidation after IBM gets a firm foothold.
As long as we develop chips now, we will be able to obtain a large amount of data for free in 1982.
"Xie Sheng's words are very interesting, but the research and development of chips cannot be solved with a small amount, and it can be updated very quickly!" Yu Youcheng said, obviously he is still not very confident in Xie Changhua's financial resources.
Xie Changhua smiled slightly and said: "Sheng Yu may not know that on the surface I am just a director and a toy dealer, but in fact my biggest business is the game industry. You don't have to worry about there being no market for the chips I manufacture."
"I made more than 200 million U.S. dollars in profit this year just from selling pick-up machines, and there is a steady stream of orders. In the chip business, the most important thing is to have orders, otherwise the machine will be idle and it will be a big loss. I know this.
The advantage is that I can digest it myself."
Of course, Xie Changhua really boasted that most of the 200 million would still be invested in Bandai Namco, but Yu Youcheng didn't understand.
"I am currently developing TV host equipment, and the chip is a big difficulty. If Yusheng joins, I think the development will be smoother, and I will have more advantages in the future competition with Yalida.
"Once we gain a firm foothold, the computer battle will be almost over. If our chips are good enough, maybe PC manufacturers will come to us!"
"In addition, Apple will go public in December, and I will acquire a lot of shares to prepare for the private computer industry. You may wish to consider it!"
Capitalists are profit-seeking. If it were not for profit, the entire scientific and technological level would have improved for at least half a century, and human development would have progressed rapidly.
But just like floppy disks, capitalists have already developed optical disc technology, but it has not been put on the market, squeezing out the last drop of profit. They can't get more before releasing optical discs, which has been delayed for more than ten years.
The same is true for Xie Changhua. As long as his business is not losing money, what's more important is that he can knock down Intel's monopoly position. If others are ruined, he will have a chance.
Maybe other manufacturers will also thank Tse Changhua for giving them more choices for chips.
Yu Youcheng said in surprise: "Oh~, I didn't expect Xie Sheng to be so secretive. However, the main consumer market for game consoles is in the United States. I'm afraid Yalida won't let Xie Sheng go so far."
"Don't worry about this, Mr. Yu. I have my own way. Maybe you will be able to see my results next year." Xie Changhua said with a smile.
Seeing that Xie Changhua was so confident, Yu Youcheng didn't ask any more questions. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Give me some time to think about it!"
"Of course, I will give Mr. Yu time to think about it. Before I leave, I will say one more thing, all products need a consumer market." Xie Changhua stood up and said with a smile.
"You see, in less than two years of reform and opening up, the mainland has made such great progress, and Hong Kong's economy is developing rapidly. Yu Sheng might as well think more about it!"
Yu Youcheng does have ideas about the mainland, otherwise he would not return to the platform of Hong Kong.
Seeing Xie Changhua walking out, Yu Youcheng quickly said: "I'll see Xie off!"
"That's enough, Yu Sheng, please stay!" Xie Changhua said politely after leaving the office door.
Seeing Xie Changhua's retreating figure, and thinking of his confidence and arrangements, Yu Youcheng felt a little uncertain.
Xie Changhua, who left, was also thinking about what to do next. If Yu Youcheng, a management and technical talent, did not join, he might as well go directly to poach Arm's talents.
After all, the streamlined instruction design of the ARM chip is more in line with my own considerations, and handheld computers can also save more power. The future mobile communication era will be a bigger market than personal computers, and the Chinese people will also have money at that time.

"The unsuccessful Miss Hong Kong flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix"
"The Myth of Hong Kong's New Rich"
"Xie Changhua: Let me tell the truth, making movies does not make money"
"The Prodigal Son of the Rich"
Since the news that Xie Changhua reached an electronic development cooperation with the University of Hong Kong, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University was exposed on November 26, the Hong Kong people have re-recognized Xie Changhua, and different news spreads every day.
After all, he was able to throw away 15 million in one go, and his net worth was definitely over 100 million. The large amount of sponsorship money also made Hong Kong people and small businessmen scold Xie Changhua for being a prodigal. Instead of buying a house and equipment, he donated money to research technology.
Entertainment journalists are even more crazy. Rich people have a natural attraction to the entertainment industry, especially this rich man who has deep connections with the entertainment industry.
It turned out that they only thought that Xie Changhua was just a director with some money, but he secretly turned into a hidden billionaire.
After careful calculation and various explorations, it was discovered that Xie Changhua was not an ordinary billionaire, which shocked the entertainment reporters. The more they dug, the more things seemed wrong.
His participation in Qiu Degen's cocktail party, his meeting and cooperation with Pao Yukang, and other past events have all been dug up. He is simply a treasured director.
Xie Changhua was also surprised by the power of entertainment journalists. He didn't know where so many whistleblowers came from.
However, Xie Changhua was quite satisfied with their revelations. If money was so effective, maybe he would have exposed it himself.
In the past two days, he found that the people around him spoke more softly and had scary attitudes, even his two women. When he went out to play with Guan Meiren, Xie Changhua also felt that her actions were more alluring.
On November 29, Xie Changhua came to Yu Zheng's Radio Hong Kong for an interview as scheduled.
"Sheng Xie, Manager Yu has been waiting on the second floor for a long time!"
"Is Mr. Xie here to see Manager Yu? Just go to the end and turn left!"
"Okay!" Xie Changhua smiled and nodded.
Don't I know the road myself? You should remind me after a few steps, or two or three at a time, Xie Changhua secretly complained.
