In later generations, the United States, Japan, and South Korea are recognized as the three countries with the most developed semiconductor industries in the world, and they have cultivated many well-known multinational companies.For example, Intel, Qualcomm, Samsung, Toshiba, etc., each have amazing size and strong strength.
In the 80s, Wanwan concentrated its efforts to join the semiconductor industry. Unlike the inland area which was strictly blocked by European and American countries, Wanwan developed semiconductors and received strong support from Europe and the United States.
Since then, in the 90s, Wanwan has soared into the sky and once became one of the most developed regions in the global IC industry.
During this period, companies such as MediaTek, TSMC, UMC, ASE, and Novatek developed and established rapidly, allowing BayWan Semiconductor to always occupy a place in the global industrial chain.
Chips, this is the biggest bright spot of Wanwan. Later generations of Wanwan once occupied nearly [-]% to [-]% of the global chip market share.
As for the game console, the most important hardware is the chip hardware.
In April last year, Nintendo released the handheld LCD electronic game console GW.Since the beginning of this year, GW, the earliest LCD handheld game console, has been unexpectedly popular.
Nintendo's domestic production line, despite overtime production, is still unable to meet market demand, and many game factories in Wanwan have received orders.
Now in Wanwan, similar products have already been launched. Among the more than [-] game factories Yang Chen acquired, several of them have experience in imitating GW game consoles.
Of course, Yang Chen's acquisition of the game factory in Wanwan was not for the simple imitation of Nintendo's WG game console.
As we all know, the most popular game console in Nintendo's later generations is the upgraded version of GW, GB, and that game console that has sold hundreds of millions of units in later generations is derived from the basis of GW.
Nintendo's GB handheld has dominated the handheld industry for more than ten years before smartphones were popularized. During this period, countless game companies imitated it in various ways, but failed to shake its position.
This time, Yang Chen is ready to take the Nintendo GB handheld directly.
Later generations of Nintendo launched GB in [-], according to which there are still eight years, during which Nintendo underwent several changes before it finally took shape.
Chapter 367 Integration Factory
In later generations, the popularity of the Nintendo GB handheld is not due to how much Nintendo has improved in technology, but mainly because of the cross-key button, which makes it easier for people to play games, thus attracting many people.
The simpler the operation, the more people will play it. Later generations of Nintendo figured out the psychology of players, and then they ruled the game industry for more than ten years. It was not until Microsoft and other giants entered that they broke Nintendo's dominance.
With the foundation of GW, it is not so rare to launch a GB game console.
On the Xiangjiang side, Yang Chen has already designed the appearance of the later GB handheld, and at the same time there are some data of the GB handheld, especially the battery of the GB handheld, the game time of ten or twenty hours is also A big reason for GB's popularity.
According to Yang Chen's design, it only needs to be adjusted moderately. In order to shorten the adjustment time, the engineers at Wanwan who have experience in developing handheld devices have all received air tickets to Xiangjiang.
Next, regarding the launch time of the GB handheld, Yang Chen naturally hopes that the sooner the better.
With the R&D engineers here at Wanwan, Yang Chen's GB handheld, I believe it won't be long before it will be born.
Although the Wanwan side is the best development base for Yang Chen's game company at this stage, sometimes things like politics cannot be predicted or controlled by humans.
In order to avoid being taken over by others, Yang Chen felt that it was safer to put eggs in two baskets.
Next, once his game company becomes popular, as long as the main production line of game consoles is in Xiangjiang, Wanwan will have no way to threaten him.
Now that the game market is so hot, apart from Wanwan, there are many game factories in Japan. If Wanwan dares to grab his hair, he dares to shave his head directly and find other places to manufacture.
Of course, it is impossible for him to transform all the game factories on the Wanwan side into game cassette production lines, and the production lines for home consoles and arcade machines also need to be preserved.
At the same time, he is also planning to get involved in the semiconductor and optoelectronic industries in Wanwan.
He plans to let the game factory on the Wanwan side follow the route of the later Boss Guo and build it into a foundry empire.
As for whether Boss Guo will be affected, he is really not worried. In addition to Boss Guo, there are several world-renowned foundry companies in Wanwan in later generations.
Boss Guo's ability to stand out from the wolves was not due to luck. Big companies like Apple in later generations dared to hand over their products to Boss Guo for OEM. Could it be because of Boss Guo's face?
Without twos and threes, how dare you go to Liangshan.
He's not a celebrity, so what's the use of his face?
Next, not only will Yang Chen not cancel the initial investment in Boss Guo, but if the other party is willing, it will be no problem for him to be the major shareholder.
Of course, he will not go to Boss Guo himself, or ask him to come over and say a lot of things like Yunyun.
He is now a multi-billion tycoon. Whether Boss Guo is worth more than [-] million is still a question. In order to develop Hon Hai, Boss Guo, like all the early entrepreneurs of the company, is heavily in debt and is a veritable big loser.
Next, after the integration of the game factory in Wanwan is completed, the person in charge will help him discuss the matter of buying shares.
Do you think Boss Guo will be tempted by a company that controls more than [-]% of the production of Wanwan games? Once he gets on this ride, Boss Guo will be able to soar into the sky just like the orders from Apple in later generations. It is the best among industrial enterprises.
With the birth of personal computers, many people have seen the prospects of this industry, and because of this, Apple's stock price will continue to rise.
Yang Chen knew that in the future, personal computers would be the mainstream, and there would be the era of smart phones.
Game consoles will be impacted by personal computers and mobile phones in later generations, and their market share will become smaller and smaller in the electronics industry.
The factory on the Wanwan side, after harvesting a wave of leeks, Yang Chen will let it follow the transformation of the Wanwan electronics industry.
In the field of electronic technology, European and American countries have always spared no effort to blockade the inland areas. In the future, Yang Chen will definitely not let go of personal computers and smart phones.
It will be of great help to him in the future that the enterprises here in Wanwan absorb the technologies passed on from Europe and the United States.
The semiconductor industry in Wanwan is just emerging now, and the famous semiconductor companies in Wanwan in later generations will not rise until the 90s.
At this time, he just wants to invest but has no chance. He plays games honestly, accumulates technical experience and capital, and joins in when he has the foundation, in order to better share the cake.
In the conference room, more than twenty general managers sat quietly in their seats, listening to Yang Chen's speech.
Yang Chen's game factory in Wanwan will be headed by the five largest game factories, and will merge the rest of the medium-sized factories.
After the merger, the scale of each factory will probably reach 3000 to 80 people. This scale was not small in the early [-]s.
With the rise of personal computers, the scale of factories in Wanwan will expand, but the number of people will not increase too much.
The vast market in the inland area and the low labor cost are the main direction of his development. Most of the factories owned by Boss Guo in later generations are located in the inland area.
It is impossible for him to move to the inland in a few years after building a large-scale factory here in Wanwan.
The development of semiconductors in Wanwan is still a long time away from maturity, and the main energy of his factories at this stage is still to carve up the cake of games.
The global game industry is so big. Blindly expanding the factory will only make him a lot less money in the end. The biggest expense for foundry companies is labor costs.
In addition to the research and development of arcade machines and home consoles, in terms of game development, Wanwan will also set up a game development department.The two sides of Wanwan and Xiangjiang are separated, competing with each other and learning from each other.
In order to make money in the early stage, Yang Chen will bring out many game designs of the later generations for the reference of both parties. When the money is almost earned, this kind of reaping for nothing will definitely not last for a long time?
How can a game company that does not know how to innovate independently survive in an increasingly fierce market?
In terms of handhelds, Xiangjiang takes the lead, and the production line is also concentrated there. Arcade and home consoles also need follow-up research and development. Wanwan has more experience and is better than Xiangjiang in terms of technology.
Next, once handhelds become popular, home consoles and arcades, he will also quickly enter. These two profit points are not low, especially the profits on game cards, which will definitely exceed handhelds.
After all, the current handheld consoles are limited by technology, and many games cannot be played, while home consoles and arcade consoles make up for this very well.
