Chapter 253 Working Together
"Oops! I pressed the space bar too much, and the cube rotated too far, what should I do?"

A female clerk with long hair and an oval face was trying to play the Great Wall Cube, but because she accidentally pressed the space bar too much, the cube that could just fall down and fit into it was rotated too far, and it was too late to remedy it, which made her unable to help A low voice of annoyance and regret.

Bai Zirui saw that she was completely addicted to the charm of the Great Wall Cubes game, with a gratified smile on his face.He signaled Li Yalei to distribute the two Great Wall Cube game handhelds to the two male employees who were waiting to try the game, and explained the operation method to them.

After the first batch of DEENS employees who tried the Great Wall Cube game left, news about the Great Wall Cube game quickly spread in the office area of ​​DEENS headquarters.Due to the restrictions of the company's rules and regulations, ordinary employees dare not come to the demo area to watch the fun.

When it was time to get off work, staff from all directions rushed to the trial office from all floors.Bai Zirui looked at Mitsuo Nakamura's expression of astonishment and astonishment on his face, and he couldn't help but feel happy. He knew that his plan had succeeded, and the charm of the Great Wall cube game had successfully conquered Deans' employees and won him a favorable position. terms of negotiation.

The two parties returned to the negotiation room again, and Bai Zirui asked: "Mr. Nakamura, accompanied by Mr. Ishida, I visited your company's wafer factory that has just started production. I have a doubt, as a newly established large-scale wafer factory , It will take enough time for your products to be recognized by the market. May I ask how many floors can the operating rate of this wafer factory of your company reach?"

Whether the operating rate of a fab is sufficient is the key issue related to the survival of a fab. An insufficient operating rate means huge losses, and continuous loss means death step by step.

After all, like SMIC in the later generations, it has been backed by the government for its huge losses year after year. It is impossible for such a good thing to fall on Deans fab.Deanshi's position in the wafer industry is the same as Dingtian Technology's position in the game industry, and they are all fledgling unknowns in the market.

Bai Zirui said eloquently: "In my opinion, the cooperation between our company and your company is a win-win situation. Our Dingtian Technology Company is still relatively weak, so we can only focus on the game software developers. And the most core part of the electronic game console hardware is handed over to your company for OEM.

If our company's new game is successful, your company will not only be able to continuously obtain a large number of orders, but also your company's processors, memory and other chip products can also take the opportunity to build a reputation, so that your company's wafer factory can get faster market order.

As for whether the newly developed games of our company can succeed in the market?I believe that Mr. Nakamura should have a sufficient judgment based on the scene where your company tried the game just now! "

Mikio Nakamura bowed to Bai Zirui, and said apologetically, "Mr. Bai, the game your company showed today is very good. But I don't have the right to make an immediate decision to cooperate with your company. I still need to discuss it with the directors of the club." , I will give you an answer only after a serious re-evaluation of your company, please forgive me!"

Bai Zirui waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's what it should be! This is related to the future cooperation between your company and our company. I hope Dean's company can finally allow us to cooperate for a win-win situation!"

Bai Zirui believes that the directors of Deans Company will agree to this cooperation, because their own employees have already proved the great charm of the classic game Great Wall Cubes brought by Bai Zirui with practical actions.This is the end of today's negotiation, and we will resume the negotiation tomorrow after Nakamura Mikio has reported to the directors of Deans Company.

On the way to the hotel arranged by Deans, Wang Yatao said happily: "Bai Sheng, has the negotiation to let Deans design and manufacture computer boards for our company have been basically reached, and the next step is to purchase PCB manufacturing equipment Things just fell into place!"

Bai Zirui said with some leeway: "Ya Tao, don't get too excited. It's not certain whether the contract will be signed in the end, but at least the future development potential shown by our company is enough to attract the attention of Dience Company!"

Li Yalei asked: "Bai Sheng, you are not afraid that Deans Company will kick us away after seeing our game ideas and produce game consoles by itself!"

Bai Zirui patiently said a little: "Great Wall cube game, our company has already applied for a patent, besides, Dience Company is not a professional game production company, they can take the risk of a lawsuit to enter a new field that they are completely unfamiliar with. How much interest is needed to allow them to step into the unfamiliar game industry.

By the time they hired people to develop a similar follow-up game, we would have already found other partners.So as long as their president doesn't have a donkey kick in his head, he won't make such a mindless decision!
On the contrary, if it is a game giant like Sega and Taito, I will be really worried!Even if we make a console, they can just call the distributor and they can kill us.

The ability of these game giants to develop the market is simply not comparable to our baseless new companies.If the idea was stolen by them, the same game could be made in minutes.

It's useless even if we go to court to sue them for infringement?The meat has already been eaten by them, and even if they win the lawsuit, the compensation they get is nothing more than a little broth.What's more, this kind of copyright lawsuit often takes a long time. Maybe the case is not over yet, and our company has been dragged out of bankruptcy by them! "

A patent is not a panacea, it is just an extra layer of insurance for yourself.Otherwise, there would not be so many follow-up games on the market. This kind of thing exists in almost all industries. Big companies just make it clear what to do if they infringe on your intellectual property rights.

As long as they earn enough profits, they are not afraid of you going to the court to sue. The first trial will be delayed for a year or two, and if they lose the case, they will appeal, and the retrial can be delayed for another year or two.In the end, the victim must be the first to give in. This kind of story can be seen everywhere in the news reports of previous lives.

The value of the Great Wall Cube game is different in the eyes of game giants such as Deans and Sega and Taito.Plagiarism is not worth the risk for Deans, but Sega and Taito are likely to see the value of the game.Because of this, Bai Zirui was unwilling to contact those game giants before the Great Wall Cube game console was produced.

Bai Zirui said worriedly: "I'm afraid that the directors of Deanshi Company will underestimate the value of our game. If they think that our Great Wall Cube game only sells a few thousand units, do you think they will give it to us?" We customize the game motherboard? It is estimated that this profit is not enough for them to adjust the cost of the production line!

I'm really not afraid that they will open their mouths. If the price is right, it's okay to give them the production agency rights of the Great Wall Cube game in the Japanese market! "
