Chapter 1094: Ancestral craft

As we all know, Young Master Tan Er’s consistent principle is: pick up the soft persimmon.
So naturally, he made the first call to a certain president who has recently been extremely insecure: "President Morita, hello, yes, this is Eric. I heard that you are planning to buy a film company recently? Yeah, how could I not know about such a big thing? How is the situation now? Are the Coca-Cola sugar water guys willing to sell Columbia Pictures? Oh, and also to settle another shareholder HBO, um, I know that company, Isn’t it a famous pornographic TV station? I often watch it...cough cough cough...wow, they offer 6 billion dollars, which is really an astronomical figure, no no no, I have no interest in investing in film companies. I really don’t understand, I don’t dare to mix things up, but in the future, if you have any heroic roles, I will be addicted... It seems that President Morita is determined to enter the entertainment industry? Well, it happens that I have a good one recently. Idea, related to the entertainment industry, do you want to listen? Well, you are in Los Angeles? That's great. Wait for me to see the schedule. Well, tomorrow noon is okay? Yes, I'll come over and we can have lunch together , Um, of course I do, I know there is a restaurant that is quite good..."
After hanging up the call, Tan Zhenhua weighed the newly bought, 2 kg, worth US$3,995, Motorola DynaTAC8000X, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. The mobile era has finally come!
So, the unprecedented pit that Motorola dug for itself is definitely already in the making?
Digging pits or something, that is the hand inherited from the ancestors of the Second Young Master. Let this young master help you at that time!
Don't thank me. As the saying goes, "helping others is the foundation of happiness", that's all I should do...
So, Tan Er, who hadn't stayed at home for a few days, just swore to study hard and made progress every day, humming a little song on the road, and went to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
...
"Eric, what's your good idea?" As soon as he saw Tan Zhenhua, Akio Morita couldn't wait to ask.
Through the previous cooperation with the "Matrix" laboratory, Sony has occupied the first-mover advantage in the field of digital cameras in one fell swoop. With the help of the CCD device developed by it and the high-efficiency nickel-cadmium battery provided by "Huaqing Power" recommended by Tan Zhenhua, it has launched a The series of portable digital camera products, due to their small size and powerful features, quickly captured the hearts of many trendy people once they came out. This year, they used the latest scientific research results and "Digital Optoelectronics Research Center" under the "Matrix" laboratory. The world’s first "megapixel-level" portable digital camera launched by Heung Kong Huaxin Microelectronics’ advanced semiconductor process technology has enabled it to lead Canon and Nikon and other competitors in this field by half its position, gaining global digital cameras in one fell swoop The first place in the market share, although the current total is not large, the growth rate is extremely gratifying. Akio Morita predicts that digital camera products will become Sony’s most important business within 5 years. Income and source of profit.
And he also aimed at another important product-notebook computers. Compared with bulky desktop computers, although notebook computers sacrifice some performance, their portable performance makes it possible to use computers anytime and anywhere. In the future, this advantage will enable it to win a wider range of application scenarios in the future. However, there is still one final difficulty for current notebook computers to overcome-the display system, whether it is a bulky CRT monitor or the black and white used by Toshiba. The liquid crystal display does not meet his requirements, so he is still patiently waiting for the maturity of the new technology.
But there is one thing that Akio Morita is very sober. No matter when he chooses to enter the notebook computer industry, as far as the computer itself is concerned, he will choose a complete set of architecture systems from CPU to software provided by the "Matrix" laboratory, because the entire Sony The company has long been deeply branded with the "Midoor" alliance.
Therefore, he is very happy to maintain a good relationship with the young Chinese man in front of him who is only his grandchildren.
Tan Zhenhua smiled mysteriously, took out a thin piece of information from his small bag and handed it to Akio Morita: "This is a small product that I have worked out without having to do anything else. Actually, there is no new technology. It's just a combination of existing technologies, but I think this product should be liked by young people."
"What is it?" Akio Morita asked casually as he reached out his hand to accept the thin information, and when he saw the line on the cover, his eyes were frozen.
The title was written in bold black on it: PlayStation Project.
"President Morita, look at my age, it’s a fun time, and recently I discovered that there are more new and fashionable electronic toys on the market. Well, maybe it’s more appropriate to call them electronic game consoles. Out of curiosity, I’m a little bit After understanding the current market, I found that the leading companies in this industry are basically your Japanese companies. The most successful ones are Nintendo, which has sold FC, Sega which has sold SEGAMark 3, and SNK which is the main arcade machine. After studying this market carefully, I made an amazing discovery."
Akio Morita opened the cover of the document in his hand and asked, "What kind of discovery can surprise you?"
"There is a gold mine!" Tan Zhenhua emphasized in a very serious tone: "And it's a rich mine!"
"Look at the statistics here." In order to strengthen the credibility of this conclusion, Tan Zhenhua simply moved the chair to Akio Morita's side, pointed to a statistical table on the first page and said: "President Morita, you see, only Take Nintendo as an example. In July 1983, they launched the FC game console, also known as the red and white console. This home TV game console sold more than 500,000 units within the first two months of its launch. In 1985, This machine was launched in the United States under the name of NES, and it successfully sold more than a million units that year. Several classic games such as Contra and Super Mario are familiar to almost every teenager. In the 1985 fiscal year, Nintendo’s turnover in the United States alone exceeded 300 million U.S. dollars. My analysis team conducted a deduction. Guess what the result was?"
Akio Morita temporarily put down the information in his hand and asked with great interest: "What is it?"
"They believe that the final global sales of this game console may reach as much as 100 million units, and the total sales scale of hardware plus various game cassettes may be as high as 15-20 billion US dollars!"
"That's really a gold mine!" Akio Morita exclaimed.
"And I also discovered a very important derivative industry, and this industry, to you, President Morita, may be more important than the video game itself."
"Oh?"
"Mr. President, don't you think that adapting those classic characters and stories in video games into movies is a wonderful idea with its own feelings and flow?"
