Rebirth in 1984: Beginning with Han Card Development

What happens to the future when humanity loses its imagination?

That slogan created a sensation during the summer of 1984.

Back then, computers couldn't support Chinese input and co...

Chapter 105 This should be quite reasonable?

P.S.: Chapter 105 was blocked, so I've edited it and am reposting it.

The explosive popularity of the "Qiongqi Home Game Console" has even caused the production capacity of the Shanghai Wujiang factory to fall behind.

With a monthly production capacity of only 1.5 million units, it's not enough to fill the Japanese market alone.

Wujiang Group also plans to enter the European and American game markets, and even the global game market.

Therefore, the Shanghai Wujiang factory must expand its production capacity.

Lujiazui has a large area, but Zhao Ye only built one-story factories, and the factories are far apart. Instead, he built gardens and planted trees, calling it a "park-style factory".

Now, the factory needs to expand production, but there's no land available.

What should we do then?

A phone call was made to Secretary Liu Hai.

"Hello, leader, I am Zhao Ye."

The phone did not have caller ID at that time, so Zhao Ye first gave his identity.

Upon hearing that it was Zhao Ye, Secretary Liu couldn't help but smile, and his tone became more amiable.

"Hello, Zhao Ye, is there anything I can help you with? Whenever your company encounters difficulties, the government will try its best to help you solve them," said Secretary Liu.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye immediately seized the opportunity and said with a smile, "Thank you for the government's concern. The company is indeed facing some problems at the moment."

Upon hearing this, Secretary Liu felt a pang of anxiety. Wujiang Group was a major taxpayer in Shanghai, and most of its earnings came in foreign exchange. If the company ran into trouble, it would be disastrous.

"Zhao Ye, what's wrong with Wujiang Group? Just tell me, and the government will do everything it can to help you solve it!"

Zhao Ye could hear the concern and sincerity in Secretary Liu's tone. He touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, after all, he hadn't bought the land to build the factory with good intentions and had the idea of ​​hoarding land.

I don't know when it started, but I've started to have the face of a capitalist.

The dragon slayer becomes the dragon himself.

In my past life, when I saw real estate companies hoarding land, I would curse and complain about them in my heart.

Now, I find myself unconsciously hoarding land, no different from those real estate developers.

Now, not only has Lujiazui been bought, but they also want to continue expanding.

Sigh, if I become a big real estate developer in the future, I'll be a little more ethical than others and build more affordable houses. Even if I enter the real estate industry, I'll focus on commercial real estate, building large office buildings, hotels, shopping malls, and high-end villa complexes. For ordinary residential buildings, I'll just set the lowest price in the industry. Anyway, I don't expect to make money by ripping off ordinary people; it's better to gain a good reputation, which will benefit the sales of other product brands under the company.

Zhao Ye comforted himself in this way, which was also his true thought. Although he also liked making money, he had his code of honor and would not do anything to harm ordinary people, except for the rich.

At this point, Secretary Liu asked the question again.

Zhao Ye snapped out of his daze and quickly explained his purpose to Secretary Liu.

"Boss, don't worry, it's not a big problem. It's just that the Shanghai Wujiang factory has insufficient production capacity, and production can't keep up with sales..."

Zhao Ye explained with a smile, "I never expected the 'Qiongqi Home Game Console' to be so popular in Japan. I estimate that the 3 million consoles shipped to Japan will sell out very quickly. In addition, Wujiang Group is also preparing to enter the American game market. The American game market is several times larger than the Japanese game market, so the Shanghai Wujiang factory needs to carry out a large-scale expansion!"

Hearing what was said earlier, Secretary Liu felt relieved. It turned out to be a false alarm. Production not being able to keep up with sales meant that the product was very popular. When he heard that Wujiang Group planned to enter the US market and earn US dollars, Secretary Liu was even happier.

However, upon hearing what followed, Secretary Liu understood the underlying meaning.

Zhao Ye has come to claim the land!

Secretary Liu was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Zhao Ye, do you mean you want to buy the land near Shanghai Wujiang Factory, which is near Lujiazui, to expand the factory?"

"Yes, sir, that's exactly what I meant."

Secretary Liu rubbed his forehead and chuckled, "Zhao Ye, couldn't you have built a more multi-story factory? Building a one-story factory is such a waste of land!"

Zhao Ye chuckled awkwardly and said, "Boss, I had no choice but to rush. The factory is only one floor high, so it's faster. As the saying goes, 'Time is money, efficiency is life!' Back then, the game console was about to be released, so we had to be quick! The situation is the same now. Wujiang Group plans to use the 'Qiongqi Home Game Console' to open up the US market as soon as possible and earn more dollars. This is partly because the US game market is relatively large, and partly because of Nintendo."

After a pause, Zhao Ye continued, "Because the 'Qiongqi Home Game Console' is developing very rapidly, Nintendo now regards it as a thorn in their side and is trying every means to suppress it. If the Shanghai Wujiang factory can expand its production capacity, then we can enter the US market to fight back, thereby disrupting Nintendo's rhythm and seizing its market share."

After saying that, Zhao Ye thought to himself, "My excuse should be quite reasonable."

Secretary Liu knew perfectly well that it was Zhao Ye's excuse, but at the moment, what Zhao Ye said did make some sense.

It's just a small piece of land in Pudong, not worth much.

If the "Qiongqi Game Console" can indeed open up the American game market, foreign exchange earnings will increase exponentially, and the tax revenue paid by Wujiang Group will also increase significantly. At the same time, it will also solve a large number of employment problems.

After analyzing the gains and losses, Secretary Liu felt that land should be allocated to the Shanghai Wujiang factory.

So he said, "Okay, the municipal government will hold a meeting to discuss your land purchase right away, and there shouldn't be any major problems."
