Reborn Tycoon Rise

In 1977, the GDP of the United States was as high as 2 trillion US dollars, and this year, the GDP of RB was 720 billion, Germany's 590 billion, France 4100, and the United Kingdom's 260 billion. The above are the top five countries in the world, and the last four combined cannot compare to the first place.

Coupled with the fact that old Americans like to overdraw their consumption in advance, the market here has been the largest consumer market in the world from the early 20th century to the new century. For arcades, the RB market is still in its infancy, and the United States currently accounts for almost all market.

The choice of a general distributor is not actually about who can make the biggest profit, but about choosing someone who can sell a large amount of goods in the shortest time and quickly open up the market.

It is still in the initial stage of market development, and the most important thing is to increase awareness and deliver the product to all places it can reach.

What's more, being able to sell more means that its resources, channels, and transportation capabilities are much stronger. The dealer must not only have a wide range of channels, but also have a certain influence in the local area. It is best to have a good relationship with the government. When some problems occur, they must solve the problem quickly. Only local snakes can solve this kind of thing. Qianglong Not possible either.

Xu Zhi's method of choice is to choose these powerful suppliers. He will provide them with arcade machines in the future. Which ones sell the fastest, and then refer to the strength behind them, and finally decide who will be the president of the United States. dealer.

…

After working hard for a week, I finally got an order for 1,500 units. There were more than 20 dealers. Except for a few that were more generous, the others selectively ordered a few or more than a dozen units. Xu Zhi ignored them and just talked to them. Nine of them have signed contracts.

However, these people are not fools. The biggest issue in the negotiation is the payment method. Xu Zhi’s factory is in Xiangjiang. It is impossible for these people to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for an exhibition. If they are cheated, where can they find someone?

In the end, both parties had no choice but to take a step back. Xu Zhi first shipped the freight to the United States, and all previous costs were borne by Xu Zhi. But after these machines arrive, and after confirming that there are no quality problems, all dealers must pay the full amount immediately, which can also alleviate financial pressure. After all, the normal model is to pay the deposit first and wait a few months. Final payment.

Of course, Xu Zhi can also provide proof of funds from a spending bank, but if a sum of money is withdrawn from it as collateral, the money must be frozen. This result is the same as Xu Zhi's own advance payment, and even more so. Not to mention that it takes a long time to go to the bank to complete the procedures.

The funds on Midea's account were simply not enough to advance the cost of 1,500 arcade machines. Xu Zhi could only transfer a sum of money from an account in the United States, and the most troublesome thing was that the motherboard OEM contract had not yet been negotiated. But the good news is that Deyi's design has been completed, and Xu Zhi has been invited to go again.

TI attaches great importance to this cooperation because their employees also like to play Xiangjiang Cube. By analogy, this game will definitely perform well in the future. To this end, Deyi specially arranged a Mercedes-Benz luxury car to come to the hotel to greet Xu Zhi and others.

"Nice to see you again!" Matthew came over, made a surprise move, and hugged Xu Zhi.

"OK, thank you!" Xu Zhi was hugged so fiercely that he almost died from suffocation. Matthew was very tall, almost 1.9 meters tall. Against Xu Zhi, he was indeed a little bear.

After letting go, Matthew walked behind the desk, took out a palm-sized motherboard from the drawer, handed it to Xu Zhidao: "Xu, this is our latest motherboard, which uses the most common Moss 6502 chip. .”

Xu Zhi held it in his hand and weighed it a few times, and sighed in his heart: "This is a real high-tech product!"

The appearance of the motherboard that was manually welded before was simply terrible. Compared with the current one, it’s like Chery Rich vs. Bentley, Zotye vs. Porsche!

Xu Zhi asked again: "Is there no problem with performance?"

Matthew nodded and smiled: "The technology on this motherboard is not complicated. We are absolutely confident that there will be no problems. In fact, our technicians have replaced the arcade machine you sent with a new chip. If you are interested, Xu, you can go and play it yourself!"

Xu Zhi nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go take a look."

Under the leadership of the assistant, Xu Zhi and Matthew came to the gym on the first floor. Laomei's company is quite user-friendly. There is a dedicated gym in the factory. Of course, it is basically only used by white-collar workers.

When several people arrived at the place, several employees were playing the game Xiangjiang Cube. When they saw Matthew and others arriving, each of them immediately said that they wanted to drink some water or take a convenience.

Xu Zhi stepped forward and started playing it himself. In fact, the arcade's Xiangjiang Cube has no difficulty at all. After all, it is not a home game console. The sales target of the arcade is grocers, game arcades, and even movie theaters all over the United States. Only if it can make money can it make money. is the only purpose. If there is a choice, then who would choose the difficult mode?

The blocks kept falling from above. Xu Zhi, as the "creator" of this game, would play it for a while when he was bored in Xiangjiang. Coupled with the training in his previous life, he was better than these novices who had only been exposed to it for a few days. There were too many, and everyone watched in surprise as Xu Zhi played the game happily, until more than ten minutes later, the cube fell too fast, too fast for the brain to react. Finally, after several mistakes: GAMEOVER!

Xu Zhi rubbed his sore fingers and shoulders and said with a smile, "I haven't played for a long time, so my hands are a bit raw."

Matthew ignored Xu Zhi's pretense and signaled to the people around him. The engineer immediately cut off the power, opened the cover behind the machine, and said to Xu Zhi: "Mr. Xu, we have optimized the latest motherboard. In terms of heat, In terms of control, it’s much better than before.”

Xu Zhi also squatted down and touched the temperature inside with his hands. It was indeed much better than in Xiangjiang.

Matthew smiled: "Our optimization is not only for the chip, but also for the operation of the display. Now the power consumption of this machine is only 70% of the previous one. If it operates 24 hours a day, it can also save a day's electricity bill." Go quite a bit.”

"It seems that I have found the right partner." Xu Zhi said with a smile. In fact, that little electricity is nothing, but less electricity consumption means that the heat can be controlled better. For an electronic product, heat dissipation is always an eternity. The problem.

Matthew nodded and said: "Of course, we at Deyi will never stop pursuing high technology and environmental protection."

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the new arcade machine, Xu Zhi and Matthew returned to the office.

Xu Zhi asked: "I wonder how many motherboards Deyi can produce in one day?"

Matthew thought for a while and said: "In fact, Mr. Xu doesn't need to worry about the production speed of the chip. The main problem is that we need to slowly debug the production line. As long as the debugging is done well?"

Xu Zhi asked: "How long will it take to debug?"

Matthew said: "This is very complicated. The production of motherboards involves dozens of processes. It is conservatively estimated that it may take a few days for the first time. Of course, as long as you have produced it once and have experience, it will be much faster in the future."

"How much does a motherboard cost?" Xu Zhi asked casually.

Matthew smiled and said: "It depends on how many orders Xu Sheng has. Industrial products actually depend on the order volume. The more produced, the lower the amortized cost."

Xu Zhi thought for a while and said: "The Xiangjiang Cube is 8,000 yuan and the Snake is 2,000 yuan. I hope Deyi can give me a sincere offer!"

When Matthew heard that there were 10,000 orders, he smiled happily and said: "Okay, no problem, Xu, a new top-notch steak Western restaurant has opened in San Francisco. We can go there to sell lunch. As for the price, the people below have to calculate it." It should be almost done by the time we come back from lunch."

"Okay." Xu Zhi nodded and agreed. This kind of multi-million dollar order cannot be settled by two people just talking, and this kind of thing cannot be rushed.
