According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.
...Upon hearing Xing Baohua's question, Chen Shuoyue pointed to the briefcase beside her and said, "I need to use the TV connection in your office."
Xing Baohua didn't reply, pushed open the door and walked into the office. Chen Shuoyue followed closely behind, carrying a bag. As soon as she entered, she went straight to the television and fiddled with it for a while before getting the screen on.
There is a large market for video games. They don't have high hardware requirements; the key is the content and playability of the games.
Xing Baohua crossed her arms in front of her chest, watched Chen Shuoyue finish, then raised her chin slightly to let the other party demonstrate.
The graphics are decent, and the missions and scenery are clear. I only realized it was a Spider-Man themed game after entering the game.
The game isn't about fighting; it's all about dodging. When an obstacle or small monster appears, the Spider-Man-like character uses webs to dodge its attacks from buildings.
The character has five lives, and there are 12 levels in total. The difficulty increases as you progress. Once you run out of lives, you have to start from the first level again; there is no save function.
One game uses one card, and the game isn't very big, around 1.33MB, which is about the size of a floppy disk.
Afterwards, Chen Shuoyue switched to a different game cartridge, which was a ninja-themed one with dodging and slashing animations.
In terms of game content, it's alright. You can imagine it as an adventure island-like game where the little ninja can use a sword, throw shurikens, and jump. This means it has many functions and high replayability.
Xing Baohua didn't find any faults with the subsequent games either. Game companies need time, and to build a good reputation, they need good content and high-quality graphics.
As for words of encouragement, Xing Baohua didn't say anything, which made Chen Shuoyue stand there a little awkward.
He was still thinking about the staff housing, but since the eldest brother hadn't mentioned it, he felt uncertain and too embarrassed to ask.
Xing Baohua's mind isn't on this right now; he's still angry about being fooled by the digital camera.
Xing Baohua told Chen Shuoyue to rest for a few days first, and then he would make arrangements.
A moment later, Xie Yingying walked in and said to Xing Baohua, "Boss, the person in charge of the my country office of Snowhan Electric Manufacturing Company, Zhuoda Andas, would like to meet with you."
"Is it one of the three companies that applied to visit our company?"
"Yes!"
"I'm busy," Xing Baohua said impatiently.
At this moment, Xing Baohua was considering how to improve the memory of the digital camera. Once that was solved, everything else would be easier to handle.
Moreover, there is a crucial issue of cost. Digital cameras cannot be manufactured at an exorbitant price. They are designed for the consumer market, and if they are too expensive, consumers will simply use film cameras.
Moreover, the photos taken after submission can be printed very large. Given the current printing technology, Xing Baohua would cry just thinking about it.
“Okay, I’ll reply that my schedule is full and I don’t have time to meet with you,” Xie Yingying said.
"You can handle it as you see fit." After Xing Baohua finished speaking, his phone rang. When he answered, he heard it was Director Min calling.
After a few polite words, Director Min said to Xing Baohua, "Mr. Xing, the person in charge of Snowhan Electric Manufacturing Company would like to meet with you. Do you have time to chat with him for a bit?"
"I really haven't been able to find the time lately. How come all the connections I've made have to go to you? It's not that I'm not giving you face, it's just that my schedule is really tight," Xing Baohua said politely. The more people wanted to meet him, the more he pushed them away.
Moreover, the other party's intentions were unclear, and they were trying to find connections randomly, which indicates that the other party wanted to ask me for a favor.
Moreover, he understands some of the rules in China, and he even mobilized people within the system to help him. Director Min came prepared.
If you want to cooperate, just send a formal letter; there's no need for these underhanded tactics. Do you really think favors are so easy to owe?
Xie Yingying didn't leave. After hanging up the phone, Xing Baohua said to her, "People from Snowhan Electrical Manufacturing Company want to meet with me through Director Min's connections. Could you use your connections in Shanghai to help me find out more details about this company?"
"Okay, is there anything else you need?"
"Try to find out what their intentions are. If we can't find out, let it go for now. Anyway, they're coming, and we'll find out then." After Xing Baohua finished speaking, he let Xie Yingying leave first.
There are too many trivial matters to deal with, and I don't have the mind to think about digital camera storage issues. No matter how I think about it, it's nothing more than solid-state drives and hard drives.
To increase the storage capacity of solid-state memory chips, we need to work on lithography machines and architecture.
It can't be solved in a short time.
Digital cameras are ultimately a waste of resources; they weren't widely used in civilian applications after being developed. However, that small webcam gave Xing Baohua a lot of inspiration.
When Xing Baohua returned to the villa, he saw Zhang Dongshuo and the others arguing again. He went over to listen and found that they were discussing the issue of quantum charge.
Especially the carrier of superconducting materials. This stuff needs to be at a very low temperature below zero to achieve zero resistance. So, assuming that a copper oxide superconducting material is introduced into a quantum, a rare metal is also needed to conduct electricity to realize the qubit, so that a quantum channel can be realized at the junction with a qubit source.
These were all theoretical, and Xing Baohua couldn't get a word in edgewise. He just watched them talk about materials, magnetic ions, and particles.
The topic then shifted to manufacturing equipment, with Xing Baohua asked which devices currently allow quantum mechanics to be incorporated into materials.
Xing Baohua thought to himself, "Who knows? The IBM documentation didn't say anything about it." Of course, he only said this aloud, and then said with a smile, "Once the equipment from Singapore arrives, you can see if it's useful."
The invited physics expert said, "Mr. Xing, an ultra-optical microscope is a must. It is one of the essential tools for observing quantum mechanics. I have also inquired with other colleagues in the field. It is said that atomic force microscopes and scanning tunneling microscopes are used."
