Chapter 572 Yang Ming's Plan to Establish a Hong Kong Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Company
Chapter 572 Yang Ming's plan to establish a Hong Kong integrated circuit manufacturing company!
7.12 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash is not something that anyone can take out if they want to.
It is difficult for Bao Yugang to raise 7.12 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Empire Group will do.
Bao Yugang only envied him, and his reaction in other aspects was not as strong as Li Jiacheng's.
The most important thing is that Bao Yugang's industry is mainly in the shipping industry, and he does not involve much in the Hong Kong real estate industry.
From now on, he knows that Sir Yang and Empire Group have been involved in all aspects of Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, there is no Chinese or British capital that can compare with Empire Group.
. . .
When the major real estate developers in Hong Kong heard that Empire Group had officially acquired Hong Kong Metro Company, they reacted very strongly, just like the last time when Empire Group cancelled the common area.
I don't know how Empire Group will plan Hong Kong's subway lines in the future after controlling Hong Kong Metro Company, and whether it will affect the development of their real estate.
Yang Ming returned to the chairman's office and sat there drinking the coffee that Lin Xiuzhi made for him.
When Mou Shili came in, Mou Shili said, "Boss, the press conference has just ended."
"Mou Shili, the management of the Hong Kong Underground Railway Company is now handed over to you."
"Boss, I will never let you down."
After Mou Shili left.
Yang Ming sat in the chairman's office for half an hour.
Came down from upstairs.
The place he came to was Empire Game Company.
Since the second half of last year, Empire Game Company has been secretly developing the third generation of game consoles.
Famicom.
And the "Super Mario Bros."
Yang Ming came down from upstairs, and Nishikaku Tomohiro and others were busy.
"Boss."
Seeing Yang Ming coming, Nishikaku Tomohiro hurried over to say hello.
"Nishikaku Tomohiro, I want to see the progress of game console development."
"Boss, this game console has been developed and has been under debugging."
After Yang Ming's guidance, the Famicom was not difficult to develop.
The function of the Famicom uses an 8-bit 6502 CPU manufactured by Ricoh, with 2KB of memory and video memory.
A picture controller (PPU) that can display 64 colors, the screen can display 2 layers of scrolls and 5 pages, of which 2 background pages each occupy 1KB of video memory. Due to the limitation of video memory, only 16 colors can be displayed at most.
A programmable sound generator (PSG) can provide 4 analog channels and 1 PCM digital channel. The PCM digital channel represents continuous background sound.
The FC host has a reset switch, a power switch, a game card slot, 2 2-button handles with a cross direction key (game controller), and the main handle has "Select" and "Start" buttons.
There are power interfaces, RF radio frequency output interfaces, video image output interfaces, and audio output interfaces on the back of the host.
There is also an expansion port on the front for connecting external devices of the light gun.
. . .
This already involves chips.
For chips like this, Toyo companies have specialized semiconductor companies to produce them, and the most expensive accessory of the red and white machine is also that IC chip.
Historically, Ren Tiantang completed the design of special ICs independently with the technical support of Sanling Company, and the performance was far superior to the consoles of the same period.
In order to gain a price advantage, Ren Tiantang's Yamauchi Hiroshi personally visited Ricoh, which produces IC chips.
In order to lower the price, he promised to "order three million pieces in two years". At that time, the industry consensus was that the maximum capacity of the game console market was no more than three million units.
Amid the exclamations of people inside and outside the company, Yamauchi Hiroshi and Ricoh reached a low price of 2,000 yen per IC chip, allowing the console to be sold at a price of 14,800 yen.
At the new product introduction meeting organized by the Chushinkai in May 1983, the representatives of the majority of the asking houses questioned the almost unprofitable price of 14,800 yen for the console. Yamauchi Hiroshi told them that software sales would bring greater benefits.
The chips used by Empire Games are also produced by Toyo companies.
In Yang Ming's opinion, it is still not safe. If the Japanese, or even European and American companies directly ban Empire Games in order to suppress the monopoly of Empire Games in the game industry, it is not impossible not to sell chips to Empire Games.
Even in the late 1980s, when Japanese semiconductor technology and market surpassed that of the United States, it was immediately suppressed by the United States.
In other words, this is not impossible.
Yang Ming looked at the red and white machine that had been developed. It looked small and exquisite, and there was not much difference from the red and white machine developed by Ren Tiantang in history.
Now you just need to insert the game card into the cassette, and you can play it with a TV or computer.
During this period, Empire Games has been debugging the red and white machine and found that it is still very good.
Compared with the arcade machine, the handheld game console is still a little different.
However, the "Super Mario Bros." is still being debugged and cannot be played for the time being.
Yang Ming can take a look at this game now. He found that it is not much different from the time he played it in his childhood memory, that is, Mario tops the mushroom.
At that time, when Akio Nakanishi and Masato Matsushita saw this game, they were very shocked. Only a genius like their boss Sir Yang could have allowed them to develop it.
. . .
After Yang Ming finished reading it once, he learned from Xijiao Youhong that basically, at the end of this month, after passing the internal test without any problems, the newest and first home game console, the Famicom, will be available on the market.
Xijiao Youhong believes that the launch of this game will surely shock the global gaming industry.
Yang Ming left here.
Go upstairs.
He looked worried.
Others don't know.
Yang Ming sat in the chairman's office, and Lin Xiuzhi made him another cup of coffee.
Yang Ming was thinking that the Xiangjiang Science Park is now in preparation and planning, which means that it will start to enclose land in the second half of the year and gradually develop.
However, in addition to the Xiangjiang Science Park.
Yang Ming is most concerned about.
Of course, semiconductors and chips.
He knows that everything in the future, almost every industry, cannot be separated from semiconductors and chips.
Including the current game consoles, arcades, handhelds of the Empire Group, and the home game consoles that have not yet been launched.
In addition to these, future mobile phones, all electrical products, and even pig breeds, are almost inseparable from chips.
In the future, the development of chips will be faster and faster, smaller and smaller, and the functional efficiency of chips will be higher and higher.
Moss Electric?
Taiwan Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Chinese abbreviation, Moss Electric,
Since Taiwan can set up, why can't Hong Kong set up?
Integrated circuit, also known as integrated circuit.
Integrated circuit, is a kind of micro electronic device or component.
Using a certain process, the transistors, resistors, capacitors and inductors and other components and wiring required in a circuit are interconnected together, made on a small piece or several small pieces of semiconductor chips or dielectric substrates, and then packaged in a tube shell to become a micro structure with the required circuit function.
All the components have been formed into a whole in structure, making electronic components a big step towards miniaturization, low power consumption, intelligence and high reliability.
It is represented by the letter "IC" in the circuit.
That is the so-called chip.
Since Taiwan can set up Moss Electric.
Integrated circuit is the name in Taiwan.
Then Yang Ming can also set up Hong Kong Integrated (Integrated) Circuit Manufacturing Company in the Science Park in Hong Kong.
That is Hong Kong TSMC or Hong Kong TSMC.
