Jia Yapeng looked at the three of them and asked, "How long do you think it will take? How long do you think it will take to produce it? How long will it take to mass produce it?"
Zhong Yu calculated and said, "If it's a sample, it will probably take about half a year. However, we can first confirm the game's compiler so that we can write the game's program at the same time. Then, we'll add in the time needed to test, debug, and integrate it. I'm afraid that this machine will only be available by this time next year!"
"No, that's too slow! I can only give you half a year's time at most. Half of that time will be used for mass production. You only have three months from design to finalization! " Jia Yapeng immediately rejected. He remembered that The Little Tyrant's learning machine was released in 1993. However, it really became popular all over the country when they invited Jackie Chan to advertise the second generation.
In other words, if Jia Yapeng wanted to sell it before The Little Tyrant, he would have to release the learning machine in 1992!
"Three months!" Wang Xuan and the other two were dumbfounded. This time frame was too ridiculous!
"If you can complete it in three months, each of you will be given a bonus of 100,000 yuan!" Jia Yapeng didn't waste any time. He directly dropped a bomb on them. The three of them suddenly felt their hearts beating fast. Under the stimulation of money, these geniuses' brains began to work crazily.
"Boss, can we not design a new host? Can't we just use a ready-made one?" Zhong Yu suddenly asked.
"A ready-made one? What do you mean? "Jia Yapeng's eyes lit up.
"We can directly integrate a ready-made computer into it!" It could be seen that Zhong Yu was the most technologically proficient among the three of them. That was why he was the most active today.
"The LASER-310 computer is designed to be integrated with the keyboard, and there are no patents to speak of. The components inside are all electronic components that can be imported from China. The only troublesome part is the chip, which needs to be imported from overseas. However, this chip is actually outdated, and the price in the market is very cheap. It is also very easy to get, so there won't be too much trouble!"
"From the design to the debugging, I've brought a group of people to work overtime. It'll take at most a month to complete! Then, I'll get some people to write the system program needed for the project. In total, three months should be enough, "Zhong Yu said.
Hearing Zhong Yu's words, Jia Yapeng immediately gave him a look of appreciation.
When Wang Xuan saw this look, he immediately turned anxious. He hurriedly said, "I know some talents in the hardware field. They are rare electronics talents in the country. Many of them are graduates from famous universities. Many of them are internal employees of Fangzheng. I can persuade them to join us, but these talents are rather expensive. Their salary basically needs to be above 500 yuan to convince them …"
"Yes, it's RMB500!" Jia Yapeng immediately said, "Go and do it immediately. I will spend three months in Yuzhang to build a complete electronic factory. After my factory is built, your people must be in place!"
"No problem, I'll definitely complete the mission!" Wang Xuan said excitedly.
"I can … I can be in charge of the game design!" When Zhao Yuanfang saw that everyone else had a mission, she naturally couldn't fall behind. Therefore, she immediately found a mission for herself. "In half a year, I can modify at least 30 Hongbai games. But boss, this will require everyone to work hard. I'm afraid the overtime pay will be …"
"The overtime pay will be calculated at twice the normal salary. The company will provide food and accommodation. Everything will be covered!" Jia Yapeng waved his hand. Zhao Yuanfang immediately patted his chest and promised to complete the mission.
In this way, all the tasks from the design to the production of the new game were distributed. Wang Xuan and the other two felt a heavy pressure on their shoulders. Jia Yapeng's bonus of 100,000 yuan per person was not easy to earn!
"Boss, there's something I don't understand. Why do you want us to redesign the game?" When the meeting was about to end, Zhao Yuanfang couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, why do you ask?" Jia Yapeng asked with a smile.
"Because if we directly design a machine compatible with F&C's cartridges, it will be much easier!" Zhao Yuanfang touched his head and said, "These are ready-made, and the cracking technology is not a secret. We only need to find a way to put the computer into the keyboard, and all the other steps can be omitted. In this way, we can save at least hundreds of thousands of yuan in R&D costs!"
"Moreover, there are many F&C games. There are tens of thousands of F&C games on the market, and the players can choose from many different games. We don't need to do such a thankless task. Anyway, Nintendo can't reach our country, and they don't have any patent restrictions in our country. We don't need to go through so much trouble!"
"You're right, this can indeed solve the problem easily!" Jia Yapeng nodded, and then his eyes suddenly became deep, "Yuanfang, it's not a problem for us to do this, but we will block our own future!"
"Block our future? What do you mean? "Zhao Yuanfang was a little confused.
"Yuanfang, do you think we can make a fortune by selling games in Hua Xia and buying Nintendo's game cartridges?" Jia Yapeng suddenly asked.
"I'm afraid we can't, those game cartridges are very easy to copy, and any small factory can copy them!" Zhao Yuanfang suddenly understood, "Boss, I understand, you just want to be like Nintendo, and use your own game consoles to form a monopoly in our country, so that the people who buy our game consoles can only play the game cartridges made by us. In this way, we can make a fortune from the game cartridges, right?!"
"Yes, that's it!" Jia Yapeng nodded with a smile, and the others also showed an admiring expression. Sure enough, the boss was far-sighted, and they didn't think of these problems.
But they actually didn't know that Jia Yapeng was thinking more than this.
Even if these game cartridges sold well, how much money could they make in a country where the current game market was still a wasteland?
Moreover, in the future, as long as there was a blue x speed incident, the entire game market would disappear.
If they really wanted to make a fortune from selling games, they couldn't just rely on the domestic market.
Jia Yapeng had an idea, and that was to let their games go overseas, to the Fusang market, to the European market, to the United States market, and to any market in the world that had game consoles.
That was the paradise of games, where the game developers could make a fortune. If Jia Yapeng wanted to make money there, he couldn't just be a game manufacturer, he had to become a game platform merchant like Nintendo, and then he could make a lot of money from the game.
Jia Yapeng needed a professional game console team, but Hua Xia didn't have such a team, so Jia Yapeng had to train this team from scratch.
Therefore, Jia Yapeng needed to spend money, even if he knew that there was a shortcut, and that it was a waste of money, he still needed to spend money. This was because when they could really make a game console with their own intellectual property, even if it was only a part of the intellectual property, Jia Yapeng could look forward to the future of this team.
"But I still have to mix some sand in, or else it won't be good if the three of them are connected!" Jia Yapeng rubbed his nose and said.
As most of the programmers had settled down in Shanghai, Bili Bili Company had to stay in Shanghai, and this made it difficult for Jia Yapeng to control. Therefore, Jia Yapeng felt that he had to mix some sand in this team, or else Wang Xuan and the other two would take the whole team away, just like what he did to Fang Zhengzhi Technology, and that wouldn't be fun!
