Video Game Empire
Chapter 28: First Japanese
If you want to compete in mature markets such as the United States and Japan, the knockoff products produced by Keji Company will definitely not work. But if Li Xuan himself invests in building a large-scale computer motherboard production factory, the one or two million Hong Kong dollars he has accumulated on hand is only a fraction of the investment.
Li Xuan's original plan was to give up some of the benefits, such as the game production license, and ask game giants like Taidong and Sega to produce game motherboards on their behalf. After all, even a company like Taidong had to bow to Sega when it came to promoting the Space Invaders arcade. The law of competition in shopping malls is always that big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. When a new company first takes off is often the hardest time!
However, Seiko Epson is a printer equipment manufacturer. He has no direct interest in Dongfang Electronics, which produces game consoles. Li Xuan only needs to be in business, and naturally he does not need to give up too much interest. The most reborn person, he understands better than anyone how classic the Hong Kong cube and tank battle he developed is. If he is forced to license the game to other manufacturers, he will suffer huge losses.
The purser's sweet voice came from the cabin broadcast: "Dear passengers, welcome to take the Japan Airlines flight from Hong Kong to Tokyo. The plane is about to land at Tokyo's Narita International Airport, please get ready!"
At the same time, the beautiful flight attendants appeared in the cabin again, urging passengers to pack up their drinks, refold the retractable table in front of them, fasten their seat belts, and prepare to land.
This is the first time Li Xuan has been on a plane since he was reborn. The shadows from before are still lingering in his heart and have not completely dissipated, but he doesn't want to show his cowardice in front of his employees. Fortunately, the Boeing 737 did not hover over the airport for a long time. The captain adjusted the fuselage attitude, aligned the runway, and landed the plane smoothly on the ground.
Only then did Li Xuan let out a sigh of relief. Tokyo had arrived.
In the pick-up hall of the airport, a middle-aged man in a black suit was standing next to a young man who looked much younger. The young man held up a pick-up sign that read "Welcome to Mr. Li Xuan from Hong Kong".
Li Xuan walked towards them with Du Wenqiang and Liang Ning.
"Hello, is this Mr. Li Xuan from Dongfang Electronics Co., Ltd.?" Seiko Epson Company prepared very thoughtfully, and specially brought a Cantonese translator to the arcade.
"Hello, I'm Li Xuan!" Li Xuan also politely smiled at the other party.
"Li Jun, welcome to Japan, I'm Yuto Hase from Epson Club, please take care of me!" The middle-aged man in the lead obviously knew English. He bowed ten degrees, then smiled and shook hands with him.
From the description of the Japanese translation, Li Xuan learned that this Hase Yu is the head of the external liaison department of the Marketing and Marketing Planning Department of Seiko Epson. Canggu Youdu and Li Xuan walked at the front, and the group left the airport together.
Seiko Epson is headquartered in Suwa City, Nagano Prefecture, a four-hour drive from Narita Airport. Epson specially prepared a black luxury extended version of the Cadrack sedan, so that guests will not be too tired during the next four hours of long journeys.
Mr. Hase's eloquence is very good. He kept using English to introduce to the guests the places of interest, historical sites, and interesting facts about famous people in the passing area. He never let the atmosphere cool down. The car also carefully prepared sashimi salad, salmon sushi rolls, cheese cakes, and Japanese sake. While chatting, you can also taste delicious food, and the whole long journey is not monotonous.
When Li Xuan and his party arrived in Suwa City, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and Yuto Hase directly sent the guests to a hotel that had been reserved in advance. Everyone was very tired, so they simply went back to their rooms to rest after dinner.
The hotel where Li Xuan stayed was located on the edge of Lake Suwa. It was already winter in Nagano in November, and a light snow fell last night. Early the next morning, Li Xuan stood at the window and looked out. The distance was covered with snow, the lake was rippling, and the scenery was very beautiful.
It's a pity that he doesn't have much mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery, the next negotiation is very important to him. The person who came to pick up the three of Li Xuan was still Hase Yudu from yesterday.
The headquarters of Seiko Epson is located in the Suwa Industrial Zone on the shore of Lake Suwa. Nagano is a famous agricultural prefecture in Japan, but Suwa City became an industrial city after World War II with the rise of clocks, cameras, and lens manufacturing. Seiko Epson is the most important industrial business card in Suwa City.
Accompanied by Yudu Hase, Li Xuan visited Epson's printer production plant and the newly built wafer factory. The $12 million chip factory is about the size of two or three football fields and uses natural daylight.
The fabs are all designed with high cleanliness and dust-free design. It is very troublesome to visit the internal production workshop of such a dust-free workshop, which requires complicated dust removal procedures. Li Xuan just looked at the situation inside through the glass, accompanied by Section Chief Canggu.
Compared with 30 years later, the current semiconductor factory is insignificant. Li Xuan’s investment in the previous large-scale fab has been billions of dollars. Without strong capital support, he is not qualified to enter the game~www.wuxiaspot The cleanliness of the .com~ production workshop is more than a thousand times cleaner than that of the hospital operating room with the strictest disinfection. It can be said that the semiconductor industry represents the pinnacle of human industrial civilization.
After the visit in the morning, the arrangement in the afternoon is a formal negotiation. Li Xuan expressed the hope that Epson could manufacture the arcade computer version for Dongfang Electronics.
"Mr. Li, after our company's understanding of your company, Dongfang Electronics is only a small company that has been established for less than a month. I'm very sorry, but this temporarily does not meet the company's minimum requirements for partners!"
The representative that Seiko Epson sent to negotiate with Li Xuan was Yusuke Ishishima, the deputy director of the Marketing and Sales Planning Department.
"I don't deny this. My company has less than 20 employees, including myself. Compared to a large company like Seiko Epson, it's just an insignificant grain of sand!" Li Xuan was not caught by the other party. Frightened by the tone of rejection, he still said calmly.
"But the electronics industry is the easiest industry to create miracles. I just saw many Apple II computers in your company's office area. Three and a half years ago, Apple just raised $1,300 by Jobs and two friends. A leather bag company founded in a garage.
But now, it has become the most important promoter of your company's dot matrix printers selling well in the United States! Although my company makes game consoles and not computers, I believe my company has as much potential as Mr. Jobs' Apple! "
