Reborn Tokyo Golden Age

"Bai Baichuan-sang, are you being too alarmist?"

Swallowing his throat a few times, Uno Zongyou tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart, and asked back as if to comfort himself.

"Scaremongering?" Bai Chuanfeng looked at the former Minister of International Trade and Industry with a half-smile.

"Uno-san, the US industry has protested to the US government last year.

They believe that foreign companies cannot enter the neon semiconductor market because of unfair trade practices by the neon government. "

"Impossible! The Neon government has always advocated a free trade environment, how could it be blocked!"

Before Bai Chuanfeng finished speaking, Uno Zongyou categorically refuted. It seems that I am afraid that if I take a step too late, such an accusation will be confirmed.

However, regarding his excitement, Bai Chuanfeng smiled calmly.

"Uno-san, you and I both know that it doesn't matter whether such an accusation is true or not, the important thing is to have such a name."

reason? It is the mercy of the strong to the weak.

When it comes to personal interests, the fist is the truth.

Uno Zongyou also understands this, but as a weak person, he can only protest verbally.

"Taking a step back" seemed to feel that his words were not powerful enough, so Bai Chuanfeng continued to add fuel to the fire.

"Is the IBM espionage case in 1982 really that simple? Without the cooperation of the US government, would IBM be an enemy of the entire neon computer manufacturer?

Now even Fujitsu, which is not involved in the matter, has been implicated. Everyone knows that it has nothing to do with this matter and has been wronged, but so what? "

Uno Zongyou's face changed, and these words hurt him deeply.

Just at the end of last year, IBM suddenly sued Fujitsu computer software system infringement.

The reason is the same as the espionage case the year before last. Affected by this, Fujitsu has been actively mediating with IBM recently, trying to reach a settlement in private.

Lao Mi is so domineering, he can punish you with just any name.

"Also, Uno-san, have you considered why SIA was established?" Bai Chuanfeng continued to make up.

"SIA, the American Semiconductor Association. The original intention of its establishment was to counter the penetration of Neon Semiconductor into the American market.

If my expectations are not bad, Intel and Micron have long been lobbying Congress to restrict neon semiconductor companies, right? "

Every word that Bai Chuanfeng uttered hit the hearts of Uno Zongyou and the others.

The Ministry of International Trade and Industry is of course aware of these situations, and they are not without eyes and ears in the United States.

It's just that Bai Chuanfeng suddenly uncovered it, and they can no longer pretend not to know.

"Think about it, Neon's DRAM chip business has already accounted for nearly 40% of the world's share.

Especially for 64K chips, the chips produced by Neon in the United States have surpassed hosts such as Intel, Micron, and Motorola.

As you just said, chips are the core of future technology. Will the United States watch others and take such authority from him? "

Bai Chuanfeng turned around and looked directly at them, "Uno-san, the trade friction between Neon and the United States has always existed.

From textiles in the 1950s to automobiles today, the two sides have competed with each other for decades, and we should know it well.

Looking at their actions, the sword of Damocles has been raised, and the next sword will cut the semiconductor! "

Swipe, Uno Zongyou couldn't help standing up, and took two quick steps to come to Bai Chuanfeng.

"Bai Chuan-san, have you heard any news?"

"The news is everywhere." Bai Chuanfeng spread his hands and told him the truth very straightforwardly.

"As long as Yuno goes to Beimi, you will know. The impression of neon in Silicon Valley is not very good."

information? What news do you want? After sorting out the trade relationship between Neon and the United States over the past few decades, everything will naturally come to light.

Uno Zongyou looked at Bai Chuanfeng, then turned his head to look at Kazuo Sugiyama beside him, with a lonely expression.

"Sugiyama-san, let's go."

Shigeyama Kazuo's face was complicated, how could he not understand what Bai Chuanfeng said just now meant.

Not to mention restarting the VLSI Research Institute, it will continue to conquer the city in the field of processor chips.

According to the situation analysis just now, it is very likely that Neon's DRAM chips will be targeted soon.

"Excuse me today. Bai Chuan-san may visit the Ministry of International Trade and Industry if you are interested in the future."

Bai Chuanfeng's expression changed, and then he nodded in agreement.

After the two parties bowed, the two from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry took their leave.

Bai Chuanfeng knew what they were doing in such a hurry to go back. It was nothing more than a thorough analysis of the trade relationship between Neon and the United States over the past few decades.

If the result of the final deduction is really not good, then it is impossible to say that the Ministry of International Trade and Industry will also make some preparations.

However, Bai Chuanfeng shook his head, it was too late.

Not to mention whether they can convince those officials with complex factions, but the neon companies that are becoming more and more dazzling on the world semiconductor stage, they will not believe this so easily.

And if the expectations are not bad, Beimi should already be formulating relevant sanctions regulations.

The United States will not let you go easily just because you show a slight sign of giving in.

But at least for SIC now, there is no need to worry about the so-called technology sharing in the future.

"The authorized SIC at Beimi should be as open as possible. In addition, all chips in the overseas market should be entrusted to Beimi's fab for OEM production."

"Hay!" Heitaro Nakajima, with an extremely serious expression, solemnly nodded in agreement.

Although there is no need to worry about SIC for the time being, the visit from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry still gave Bai Chuanfeng a sense of urgency.

It has been 84 years in a blink of an eye. The golden age of manufacturing is about to pass, but the golden age of the whole people is coming soon.

In April, Bai Chuanfeng was in a coffee shop in Ginza, slowly admiring the street view outside the window.

A pair of stylishly dressed girls at the next table looked here from time to time, while lowering their heads and whispering.

Bai Chuanfeng knew what they were discussing, and he had gotten used to such gazes recently.

It was nothing more than recognizing himself, and then quietly talking about his wealth.

Yes, Bai Chuanfeng is also considered a neon celebrity now.

At the end of March and the beginning of April, with the disclosure of Baichuan Electric's financial report for the new year, he was pushed to the forefront again.

This time, the media not only focused on Baichuan Electric, but also focused on the largest shareholder behind it - Baichuan Holdings.

You can tell by the name, this company definitely has a great relationship with Bai Chuanfeng.

The fact is indeed the case, Bai Chuan Feng is behind Bai Chuan Holdings.

Since everyone agrees not to report on private life, it doesn't matter to write about commercial territory.

So under the mobilization of many media, Baichuan Holdings was given a big start.

From the most eye-catching Shirakawa Electric, to the inconspicuous and inconspicuous Gaode Co., Ltd.

After counting, people discovered that there were as many as ten subsidiary clubs under Bai Chuan Holdings before they knew it.

Including Bic camera, Tokuma Shoten, Hudson Software, Capcom and other affiliated companies, Shirakawa Holdings has 14 companies.

Fourteen companies, among which Baichuan Electric, SIC, HAL, Beidu Bank, etc. are already quite familiar to everyone.

They are integrated into a whole, the scale of which even shocked many media.

So everyone simply referred to the capital behind Baichuan Holdings as "Baichuan Zaibatsu".

As its founder, Bai Chuanfeng has naturally been talked about recently.

Everyone is guessing how much money he has now.

Because only one company, Shirakawa Electric, went public, and although people have heard about other companies, they don't know the exact value.

At this time, so-called experts from all walks of life appeared on the show and began to talk to the club under Baichuan Holdings.

In short, the final conclusion is that Bai Chuanfeng's personal wealth can be gathered at least 10 billion US dollars.

After all, the market value of a Shirakawa Electric is 16 billion U.S. dollars, and Shirakawa Holdings accounts for half of it, which is 8 billion U.S. dollars.

Other companies, SIC and Beidu Bank, added a little more than 2 billion US dollars.

Others don't pay attention to it, but the words of 10 billion US dollars are really dazzling.

So much wealth is enough to be ranked among the 100 richest people in the world.

So regarding the appearance of Bai Chuanfeng, it was difficult for the girls in Ginza who recognized him not to pay attention.

But soon the girls had to look back, because a few staff sang who were not easy to provoke at first sight had already quietly blocked in front of them.

"Ota, you've been working hard recently."

"Fortunately not disgraceful." Ota, who was wearing a black suit, nodded respectfully.

"How are people?"

"A little skin trauma is not a problem."

Bai Chuanfeng nodded silently, it was really not easy to find this Tanimura-san.

Since the last time he appeared in Sega, Ota and the others scoured Tokyo but couldn't find him.

Finally, news came from Osaka that this guy seemed to have opened a software company there.

Tsk, it seems that he also knew that he couldn't stay in Tokyo anymore, so he simply hid away in the end.

However, this did not bother Ota and the others. After hearing the news, they personally went to Osaka and brought him back.

In the end, under the hospitality of an old punch, he said everything.

This guy really sold all the information on Baichuan Electric's handhelds, and it wasn't just from his old rival Nintendo.

Tanimura sold two of them directly, earning 6 million yen from Sega.

In the end, with a huge sum of 11 million yen on his back, he fled directly to Osaka, planning to have nothing to do with Tokyo.

Unfortunately, betrayal is betrayal. If he just opened a software club, then Bai Chuanfeng would not kill them all.

However, Bai Chuanfeng couldn't bear to sell the information on the handheld to his competitors.

"He said he wanted to see you again?" Ota told again, Tanimura's crying last request.

"No need." Bai Chuanfeng put down the finished coffee and got up calmly.

After tidying up his clothes, Bai Chuanfeng paused, "Just send it to the sewing machine."

"Hay!"

The evidence from a few months ago just came in handy, and there are some trumpets for the next ten or twenty years.

"Om~!" A powerful roar echoed far away in the wilderness in southern Shonan.

Bai Chuanfeng's bangs trembled violently in the swift airflow.

Sama, who was sitting next to him, held onto the doorknob with one hand, and tightly covered his seat belt with the other.

It is not difficult to see from his pale face that he must be extremely nervous at the moment.

But Bai Chuanfeng, who was the culprit, couldn't help cheering at the bend.

The rushing wind, the rapidly retreating roadside scenery. There is also the sound of the engine shaking the eardrums, which really makes the adrenaline soar.

"Wow~hoo~"

With a sharp whistle, the frightened rabbit on the side of the road jumped away.

When it looked back after hiding away, the taillights of the car became blurred.

In a wilderness along the coast of southern Shonan, this Lotus Esprit S3 is galloping.

As one of 007 Bond's cars, it is self-evident in folklore.

And Bai Chuanfeng also bought one as his own toy, no, wouldn't it be great to go racing here if you have nothing to do.

Tsk, it's better to drag racing on your own territory.

At the end of the field of vision, the coastline is curved and undulating, with beaches and the sea on the left, and mountains and green trees on the right.

Man and the sea, machinery and nature, roar and silence, Bai Chuanfeng completely let himself go.

After another two laps, he turned the car towards his family's holiday villa after he was addicted.

"Om~~" The sound of the engine gradually went out.

"Are you back? It's better not to do such dangerous sports in the future."

In front of the gate of the villa, Keiko Matsuzaka, who was much plump, complained a little reproachfully.

"Hay~Hay~" Bai Chuanfeng said perfunctorily without sincerity.

Throwing the car keys to Sam, he couldn't wait to start teasing the two little guys in the stroller.

It's still a man and a woman, but the order is reversed. The girl became an older sister and the boy became a younger brother.

Bai Chuanfeng named them Weixiang and Hengjiu.

One month after Beimi was born, Bai Chuanfeng brought them here in Shonan.

With the warmer weather approaching May, Shonan is very suitable for recuperation and vacation.

The few private runways that have just been repaired are ready to use, and the resort has been empty for a long time, so let's arrange them here.

But speaking of May, summer is almost here too.

I don't know how the progress of Satoru Iwata and Akagi are.
