"Teacher, how long will it take for our decoding chip to be mass-produced?" Boss Jia asked.
"We've been preparing for this for a long time!" Ni Guangnan took a deep look at Jia Yapeng. In fact, after they returned from the Netherlands, Boss Jia directly ordered the company to start preparing for the mass production of the lithography machine and decoding chip. It was now September. After half a year, the Daqian was almost ready.
After repeating the production of three 200nm lithography machine prototypes, all the technical problems for mass production were solved. The production line of the lithography machine was even ready. The 200nm lithography machine could be mass-produced at any time. By then, the monthly production could reach about 30 units.
This number was not too small. In fact, this production speed was comparable to the production speed of AML.
After all, the technology and materials of the lithography machine were too complicated. At the same time, the market was not too big. There were only a few companies in the world that needed lithography machines. If they produced 30 units a month, it would probably be difficult to sell them!
The key was the production line of the decoding chip. It required a lot of key equipment. It could not be produced domestically. They could only import it from abroad.
At the same time, to be honest, Ni Guangnan's emphasis on the decoding chip was far less than the lithography machine. All the funds were used to buy the equipment needed for mass production of the lithography machine. So from June, the preparation work for the production line of the decoding chip, as well as the purchase and financing of various equipment, really began. Now, there were still a lot of equipment floating on the sea. The slowest of them would have to wait for about a month.
At the same time, the production line could not be started immediately after the equipment arrived. After that, the equipment would need to be assembled. At the same time, the most important thing was the training of the workers.
Chip packaging was a high-precision job, so the quality of the workers was relatively high. A qualified chip packaging worker would need at least 400 hours of professional training to be able to do it.
Therefore, the training of the workers would take about a month. Adding all this time together, Ni Guangnan finally gave two months. After two months, the production line of the decoding chip could be officially mass-produced.
"It's also two months!" Boss Jia looked at the three lithography machines in front of him and sighed. Then, he said, "If there are only three lithography machines and they are produced in the laboratory, how much can the monthly production of the decoding chip reach?"
"Then the monthly production should only be in the tens of thousands!" Ni Guangnan said.
"Then let's create the chip in the lab now!" Boss Jia said.
"How can that be? My experimenter's time is incomparably precious. How can I waste it on something as precious as repeated production!" Ni Guangnan immediately retorted.
"I didn't ask these experimenters to produce it!" Boss Jia sighed and said, "Teacher, I will send 100 workers over tomorrow. You only need to send 10 experimenters to instruct them on how to work!"
"100 workers, their quality … I'm afraid they won't even …" Ni Guangnan's words were a little hesitant. After all, it was quite incorrect to say that there was a problem with the quality of the workers at this time.
"Don't worry, teacher. I've sent 100 workers. They're all university graduates, and they're all science and engineering graduates. As long as you send someone to teach them, there won't be any problems with their quality!" Boss Jia said.
"He's sending 100 science and engineering graduates to be workers? You're really generous!" Ni Guangnan was stunned. College students in this era were not as worthless as college students in the future.
In this era, every college student was precious. Factories would fight to hire them. Boss Jia actually sent them directly to be front-line workers!
"It doesn't matter. They're just college students!" Boss Jia in the future obviously didn't value college students as much. In the future, even graduate students were worthless. Who would care about a few college students?
Besides, this was the company's test for them. If they could settle down and work honestly, Boss Jia wouldn't treat them badly in the future. At the very least, they would receive a lot of performance points.
"It's not a loss to let them work here. After the assembly line is completed, they'll be the teachers of all the workers. They'll help us train tens of thousands of qualified high-tech workers!" Boss Jia said calmly. With just a few words, another problem was solved.
With this, the production of the decoding chip was completely handed over to Ni Guangnan. However, this didn't mean that Boss Jia was free. In fact, Boss Jia was now facing the biggest problem in the world, and that was how to deal with the next two months!
Boss Jia had boasted to Ma Huateng that Ma Huateng would continue to expand in the next two months. He had even set an astonishing target of 3 million units.
So, the problem was, how was Boss Jia going to get three million VCD players in the next two months?

The sky was completely dark when they came out of the joint laboratory. However, the lights in the city lit up soon after. The whole of Yuzhang was immersed in the nightlife.
"Let's go to the department store!" Boss Jia wasn't in a hurry to go home. Instead, he asked his driver to drive him to the department store. This was a place that Boss Jia hadn't been to for a long time.
Although the weather was hot and the sky was dark, the department store was still brightly lit. It was the busiest time of the day for the department store. People who had eaten their fill began to stroll around the department store.
There were many more people in the department store than on the streets.
Boss Jia's destination was quite clear. He didn't go to the clothing area, nor did he go to the clothes and shoes area. Boss Jia went straight to the home appliances area. At the same time, he also went straight to the home appliances area.
The place with the most people in the electrical appliances area was the TV area. In order to display the effect of the TV in the shopping mall, all the TVs would be turned on and continuously play movies. Then, it would attract a large number of viewers who had nothing to do after eating their fill.
Boss Jia noticed that the TV that was playing the movie was a Daqian VCD player.
Unfortunately, Boss Jia did not look at the TV. Instead, he went straight to the VCD area. This was probably the second most popular place in the entire home appliances area. This was because the TV here was also playing movies. Moreover, it was different from the movies shown in TV dramas. More importantly, there were seven to eight different VCD brands here. Each of them was playing different movies.
The first one was the Daqian VCD player counter.
However, at this time, the Daqian VCD player counter was dark. There was a notice outside the counter that said, "Daqian VCD player sales are too hot. Due to insufficient production capacity, there is temporarily no stock available."
Of course, this was bullsh * t. The reason why Daqian VCD players were not available in China was because Boss Jia had transferred the 1 million Daqian VCD players in China to the Fusang market. In addition to the 200,000 decoding chips in the stock, Boss Jia actually had 1.2 million VCD players in stock.
However, in the end, Daqian stopped all VCD players in China. This caused the entire Daqian Entertainment department in China to be in a state of confusion. All of the salespeople were in a state of unemployment.
Of course, the other VCD players didn't know what happened to Daqian. They only knew that their biggest competitor had committed suicide. Therefore, they had to sell their VCD players as soon as possible.
Boss Jia started to look at the VCD players of other brands. Then, Boss Jia realized that in order to compete in the market, these VCD players had lowered their prices to the minimum. They were all maintained at around 4,800 RMB per VCD player.
Daqian's production cost was 4,000 RMB per VCD player, and these VCD players were only selling at 4,800 RMB per VCD player. More than half of the 4,800 RMB profit would be given to the distributors. The competition between these domestic brands was extremely fierce.
"Sir, how many VCD players do you have in stock in Xijiang Province?" Boss Jia gave his secretary a look. Then, his secretary took the initiative to ask a sales manager who was present at the scene.
"Who are you?" The sales manager immediately asked cautiously. A normal customer wouldn't ask about the stock.
"What do you mean by that? I am just curious!" The secretary quietly took out 10 100 RMB notes. The sales manager swallowed his saliva and said, "I don't know the exact number, but there should be more than 10,000 units!"
