Zhitian Hirohito doesn't necessarily need Zhuyouxing's order to survive, but if he can sign it, he can definitely live a pretty good life.

"Approximately how many finished circuit boards does your factory produce every day?"

At this time, Zhu Youxing suddenly asked a question.

Hirohito Chida has long been used to this problem.

He quickly sorted out the clues and replied: "When you talk about the output, it must be compared with the complexity of the PCB. The more complicated the PCB, the slower it will be produced, but you can rest assured that we are deep in electronics. The Co., Ltd. has many high-end partners, and we can meet each other's requirements when faced with complex and high-volume products, so I feel at ease about the output."

"Well, different levels of complexity will indeed affect the output, but you, Shenda, are indeed trustworthy."

Shenda Electronics, in the memory of Zhu Youxing, there was no such a large factory for making circuit boards in his previous life.

However, he searched the Internet in this world. It seems that Shenda Electronics is still a very well-known circuit board manufacturer in the world. There are indeed many leading electronics companies and they are long-term partners.

If, in the future, their own video game consoles need to be produced on a large scale, they can indeed be competent.

"Then, let me show you the schematic diagram of the circuit board. If you are a salesman, can you understand this thing?"

Hirohito Chida pondered for a moment and replied: "I'm sure I can't do this... more complicated ones, but I can basically guess the cost and production cycle based on your circuit board schematic diagram."

For him, a salesman who lives in a circuit board factory, simple picture recognition is still necessary, otherwise it would be embarrassing to ask customers what he didn't know.

Zhu Youxing nodded, and then took out the basic schematic diagram of the circuit board and gave it to Hirohito Chida.

A circuit board that can be made by hand is definitely not very complicated.

And the imitation cost of this thing is also very low.

But it doesn't matter, this is Japan, where wanting to use pirated items can even rise to the level of crime.

Zhu Youxing is not worried about counterfeiting this kind of problem at all.

And he only intends to use this game console for a maximum of three to five years.

The original version of the red and white machine plus the enhanced version, Nintendo used it for eleven or twelve years to earnestly start the research and development of new game consoles.

When Zhu Youxing came here, he planned to play all the dozens of classic games on the red and white machine, and then decisively give up.

In such an era of relatively advanced technology, he didn't intend to spend too much effort on such a game console that was slightly behind the times.

At the beginning of making the red and white machine, on the one hand, it was about feelings, and on the other hand, it can be made by one person.

If he were to make a Nintendo 64 or a game console like the WII by himself, it would probably take him longer.

At the very least, let the world know about games before making better ones.

Looking at the schematic diagram of the circuit board that Zhu Youxing took out, Hirohito Chida began to study it seriously.

The circuit board schematic diagram of the red and white machine is not complicated, and it can even be said to be a little too simple.

In this era, there is already a mature flip machine production line. The circuit board in the flip machine is much more complicated than this, and the current flip phone has begun to have the prototype of a smart phone, but it has not been fully promoted. .

Looking at such a simple circuit board, Hirohito Chida felt a little disappointed.

Yes, disappointment.

This thing... I'm afraid the cost will be quite low.

In this case, this order is really just a small order.

The most is to make my boss stop scolding me when he sees me a little bit.

After a simple calculation, he felt that if they let their factory make it, the cost might be reduced to less than 600 yen.

Just looking at the chips soldered on the circuit board, it is already more than ten years out of date, and it seems that they are all products that were not very hot at the time.

Now this kind of product is estimated to be piled up like a mountain in the factories of many chip manufacturers, and they are worried that there is no place to sell it. I am afraid that they have already begun to consider destroying these chips collectively.

And this thing, there is a chance to use it.

If you purchase in large quantities, the cost of the chip may be as low as 600 yen, and then, plus the average manufacturing cost of up to 100 yen per circuit board, this is indeed a hard-earned money. .

However, even such an order is what he is extremely eager for now.

"Zhuyou-jun, I roughly guessed, how much is your order going to be manufactured?"

Chida Hirohito already had a rough idea in his mind.

If the other party proposes to produce 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, he will give a price of about 900 yen, and then the two parties will bargain a little bit, and the price will reach 850 yen for the production price of a circuit board, which is about the same. It is a relatively good result.

And if Zhu Youxing plans to produce in the range of 100,000 to 200,000, he can give a minimum price of 750 yen.

"The initial order... Let's start with one million. Of course, at first I may only be able to give a deposit, and it is impossible to give all the money. My funds also need to be withdrawn slowly."

Zhitian Hirohito said very understandingly: "Well, I understand this very well, the deposit is enough, we can talk slowly..."

At this time, Zhitian Hirohito suddenly felt that he had heard something wrong.

"Hey, wait a minute, Mr. Zhuyou, how many such circuit boards did you say to produce?"

"One million, what's wrong?"

Zhu Youxing looked at each other wonderingly.

cough cough!

Hirohito Chida coughed violently on the spot.

one million?

Did he hear correctly?

Is this young man crazy for so many such boards?

Can this game console produce a million?

Even if it is produced, who will it be sold to?

An entertainment hall can require at most thirty or fifty units, and if you add the depreciation amount for several years, then an entertainment hall needs at most fifty or sixty units.

All the entertainment halls in Tokyo provide them, that is 50,000 units.

If the game consoles spread across the country, it is indeed possible to sell more.

But that must be very long, and the sales volume is at most 200,000 units.

The other party said one million.

This has scared Hirohito Chida.

"Well, you just said that you have roughly calculated the price. May I ask the exact price?"

Zhu Youxing asked.
