Old Huang was a little confused about the cooperation with the Daqian company. Around the New Year last year, his investor, the people from the America First Foundation, suddenly came to Old Huang. They told Old Huang that they had made a deal for his Nvidia and asked Old Huang to quickly negotiate with them.
At that time, Old Huang was very grateful. He was also a little nervous because Old Huang lost money!
Old Huang developed his company's first standalone graphics card, but it was specially developed for the console. He was lucky. Later, he found Sega to cooperate with and provide graphics cards for Sega's Saturn console.
However, the problem was that Sega's Saturn console business was not doing well. In order to reduce costs, Sega had lowered the price of the graphics card to an extremely low price. Although the Saturn console had sold 4 million units worldwide, the amazing thing was that Old Huang did not earn much money. He could only barely maintain the company's operations and research.
Later, Old Huang felt that he could not continue doing this. So, he turned to develop standalone graphics cards for computers. He thought that standalone graphics cards for computers could sell at a high price, and there would not be any console vendors who would lower the price.
In the end, Old Huang's graphics card suffered a loss. The company's cash flow was almost cut off. In history, Old Huang relied on selling his shares to barely survive.
But this time, Old Huang had his father. So, Old Huang carefully made a report to the America First Foundation, hoping that the America First Foundation could provide some financial support. Old Huang thought that it would be difficult to get the money, and that the foundation might even fire him if he was exposed.
But unexpectedly, within three days of the report being submitted, the 5 million USD fund was given to him without any questions. This made Old Huang very grateful to the foundation.
But what Old Huang did not know was that Boss Jia had told him that as long as Nvidia asked for money, and it was not more than 50 million USD, he would give it to them.
Harry Potter saw that Nvidia only asked for 5 million USD. It was too cheap. So, he approved it immediately. He did not even report it to Boss Jia.
So this time, when the foundation asked Huang to cooperate with them, Huang was very decisive and very nervous. When he met them, he found out that his partner was actually the Daqian Group.
Old Huang knew a thing or two about the Daqian Group. It was the most famous company in the Chinese circle recently. The reason was very simple. It was the first Chinese company that could spread its business forces all over the United States. What was more amazing was that this company was a mainland company, not a Hong Kong or Hong Kong company. This was simply amazing.
It was as if they had found out one day that a poor relative of a country bumpkin had suddenly become their boss, and that the mainland's GDP had surpassed Fusang's to become the world's second largest economy. It was unbelievable.
Therefore, everyone in the Chinese circle was talking about the Daqian. Old Huang did not expect that he would actually work with the Daqian.
After discussing with the Daqian, Old Huang learned about the Daqian's intention. It turned out that the Daqian wanted to enter the computer game industry. They wanted to invest a huge amount of money to create a game that would shock the world.
However, the Daqian was very dissatisfied with the current graphics performance of the computer. The Daqian urgently needed a standalone graphics card that could greatly improve the graphics performance of the PC. This would satisfy the Daqian's needs for game development and satisfy the gamers' needs for the graphics quality of the games.
The Daqian's request was in Old Huang's heart. After all, Old Huang was not willing to fail. He wanted to climb up from where he fell. He had to develop an awesome standalone graphics card for the PC.
So, the Daqian and Old Huang reached a successful cooperation. The Daqian gave Old Huang a lot of requirements for game performance optimization, and Old Huang's Nvidia was responsible for developing a standalone graphics card that could fulfill these requirements.
In return, Da Qian could make use of his reputation, his commercial power, and his worldwide sales network to help Nvidia sell this standalone graphics card.
After the cooperation was reached, Old Huang led Nvidia to start research and development. In the end, they successfully produced the GTX0000, a graphics card that even Boss Jia could not help but feel a little amazed when he saw it.
At this time, Old Huang was qualified to stand next to Boss Jia.
"This Boss Jia looks a little familiar!" When Old Huang saw Boss Jia, he felt as if he had seen this person before. This feeling was very inexplicable.
Well, Old Huang probably forgot that when Harry Potter came to talk to him about the acquisition, there was a young man wearing sunglasses who acted as his secretary.

"Everyone must be very curious about the capabilities and effects of our GTX0000 graphics card!" As he kept talking, Old Huang gradually forgot his nervousness and began to speak frankly on the stage.
"As the saying goes, the real deal is revealed by the hands. No matter how good I say it, why don't we let everyone see the effects of our GTX0000 with their own eyes? Staff, please bring up two computers!" After Old Huang finished speaking, the staff members carried two tables and two computers onto the stage.
"Everyone, please take a look. These two computers are exactly the same. The only difference is that this computer doesn't have a graphics card installed, while this computer has our GTX0000 graphics card installed!"
"First, let's test it with a game that has already been released. Of course, this is Daqian's territory. I don't have the face to use games from other companies. So, let's test it with Blizzard Studio's Humans and Orcs!" After Old Huang finished speaking, he began to operate the computer. Soon, the computer on the left started to run the game.
Then, Old Huang played the game for a full three minutes in front of all the players so that the players could see the game's display effects on the big screen.
In fact, there was no need for many players to show the game's display effects because they had already played Humans and Orcs countless times. They were very familiar with the game's display effects.
Then, Old Huang sat on the computer on the right with the GTX0000 installed. Then, he opened Humans and Orcs as well.
When the game was opened, everyone immediately widened their eyes to look at the image quality. In the end, they realized that the game's image, which was claimed to have a super independent graphics card installed, didn't seem to be any different!
"Everyone, don't worry. I still need to set it up!" Old Huang smiled charmingly. Then, he opened the game's settings button. On the image quality interface, he pointed at one of the Super buttons and said, "I know that many of you must have tried to press this button, and then your computer immediately went black and crashed, right?"
Old Huang's words immediately poked at many painful memories. Many players had discovered this Super button, but just as Old Huang said, when they pressed this button, the computer first went black, and then they could hear the computer's fan spinning wildly. When they felt that the whole computer was about to explode, the computer automatically turned off the power.
Therefore, no one had ever seen what it looked like when the Super button was successfully pressed.
"This Super button is actually the highest image quality button in the game. If you press this button, the game will expand all the special effects and image quality to the maximum. However, this requires a lot of computing power. Generally speaking, other than a professional computer that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, no other computer in the world can light up this Super button except for the computer with our GTX0000 installed …"
As soon as Old Huang finished speaking, he directly pressed the Super button. The computer screen went black instantly. Just as all the players of Humans and Orcs instinctively began to fear the computer's automatic restart, the computer screen suddenly lit up again. Then, a brand new world appeared in front of all the players.
This was Humans and Orcs …
When they saw the game's display effects, everyone was shocked. Originally, all the units in the game felt like dozens of simple pixels put together.
However, when the display effects were fully activated, they realized that the arms, legs, and weapons of all the units in the game could be seen clearly. At the same time, there seemed to be light in the game's sky, and the trees seemed to be swaying. The entire screen was crystal clear, and the display effects almost blinded everyone's eyes.
"Is this really the same f * cking game?"
