"Ah! President!"

When Takeyuho entered the office, he saw several engineers still wearing dust-free clothes, and of course Airi Hayazawa.

At this time, she was wearing the company's internal engineer's clothing, looking very capable, with the air of a strong woman.

Once upon a time, she was a girl who had just graduated and was at a loss.

But now, she is completely independent.

Even though she is not as good as her team of engineers in terms of academic qualifications and knowledge, her experience is overwhelming, and she is good at following Zhu Youxing's guidance to complete the required work.

"Takeyu, you're here." Airi Hayazawa turned her head and smiled.

Zhu Youxing nodded, and then said: "Are you just discussing the trigger button of the game?"

Hayazawa Airi nodded: "That's right, Izumi-san thinks that if the gameplay is refined, we should add multiple trigger buttons to the detachable separate handle. He thinks this can greatly improve the gaming experience, but others think This will increase manufacturing costs and maintenance costs, which will not be worth the candle.”

Zhu Youxing said: "It will indeed increase the cost, and the damage rate is hard to say, right?"

"That's right, but Zhuyou, you seem to have voted for it just now? If you voted for it, we might have no objections."

Zhu Youxing shook his head: "No, your considerations are also right. Before I came in, I only heard that you wanted to add multiple trigger buttons to the game console, but I didn't pay attention to the cost and maintenance issues. These are indeed things that should be considered. The problem."

"Then Zhuyou, you won't vote for the time being?"

"This... I have reservations for the time being." Zhu Youxing paused and looked at Izumi who made the suggestion, "Is that Izumi-san?"

The man named Izumi is probably in his twenties, which is considered relatively young in the current team.

It hasn't been long since he joined the company, but his talent in construction machinery and electronics is very strong. Airi Hayazawa was recruited here because of his talent, and he didn't pass any interviews.

Izumi straightened his body when he heard Zhuyouxing's question and said, "That's right, President Takeyou, I'm Izumi, Izumi Daigo, and now I'm in charge of the mechanical function research and expansion module of Switch."

Zhu Youxing said: "Your idea is very good, but have you considered whether the two-stage trigger will increase the difficulty and cost of research and development?"

"Of course." Izumi immediately responded, "I must have considered it, so I proposed only a two-stage trigger button, because if there are too many stages, I have estimated that the chance of damage will be greatly increased, but the two-stage I think it’s just right for a handheld.”

In the handheld, some things can only be inevitably traded off. After all, it is not like home game consoles that can have more room for development.

At that time, the heat dissipation design of the switch was stuck for a long time. Even with the experience of Zhu Youxing's previous life, there was no way to fully reproduce it in this world. In the end, it was because of finding a suitable chip manufacturer with good performance. In addition, in order to win the order from Youxing Electronic Entertainment, they even ran over to help design the heat dissipation, and the heat dissipation problem was roughly solved with the cooperation of both parties.

Later, there were still many troublesome problems on the Switch handheld, such as the design of the cassette, the design of the separate handle, and many other aspects that took a lot of research and development time.

Now that I want to add new functions, it is inevitable that more troublesome problems will appear.

Other people's considerations are not without reason.

Zhu Youxing said: "Well, since you think your idea is feasible, then prove that this can indeed be done. Anyway, this is a design problem on the separate handle. If it really doesn't work, it's a big deal to go back to the previous design. , which will not affect the host itself."

Izumi's eyes lit up.

This is the president's approval, he quickly assured: "President, don't worry, I will definitely complete the first draft of this design as soon as possible, and then manufacture the first sample. A method that won’t raise too much cost!”

"Then come on."

Izumi chose to leave immediately to carry out his own research work, and then Takeyuho looked back at Hayazawa Airi.

"Yue Yecai told me that your research and development has made new progress, tell me about it."

"Oh yes, I almost forgot. The time I talked to Tsukino Aya was a few days ago. What are you doing these days, Zhuyou?"

"What else can I do, prepare for a new game production, and I'm actually considering releasing this game on the switch as the first work of the switch."

"Huh? You've already started researching the first work? Then let me guess... Is it the new Mario series?"

Zhu Youxing shook his head: "No, at least the one I'm planning is not."

"Is that Zelda?"

Zhu Youxing shook his head again.

"Dragon Quest?"

...

"Final Fantasy?"

Takeyuho directly interrupted Hayazawa Airi's nonsense and said: "It's not any known series, it's a new series. In short, you will be able to see it after a while, so don't worry too much."

"All right."

Zhu Youxing said: "Now let's talk about your new research and development progress."

"Oh yes."

Hayazawa Airi clapped her hands, and then said: "You wait for me for a while, you guys are also waiting here, I'll be right back."

After saying that, Hayazawa Airi ran out of the office.

It didn't take long for Hayazawa Airi to come back, already holding a Switch prototype that Takeyusei had seen before.

The last time I saw this prototype was a few months ago, not long after I had just settled the heat dissipation with the chip manufacturer.

At that time, the prototype still looked a little rough, and the shell was not installed. It was just a radiator and a screen assembled on a motherboard.

But now, the prototype has a shell of its own.

"Zhuyou, this is the heat dissipation duct of the shell that we have finally designed after continuous research over this period of time. The final temperature of the final product we designed can always be kept within 60 degrees, which should be considered to meet your requirements."

"Did you just complete the design of the cooling air duct?"

"Not only that, we have also fixed the system!" Aya Tsukino said happily, "You guys take the base of the game console and show it to our president."

Soon several other engineers brought a base over.

The shape is something similar to a base, which is somewhat different from the shape of the switch base in Zhu Youxing's memory.

However, the base itself is not difficult. It is more of a simple port for charging and connecting to an external TV and monitor, so this is the earliest research.

The shape can be changed at any time until the end.

Hayazawa Airi inserted the prototype into the base, and the big screen in the office lit up.

Zhu Youxing is quite familiar with that interface.
