Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

Thanks to the great leadership of the wise Tang IT, lithium-ion batteries and LCDs have developed rapidly in the right direction and have been commercially available on a large scale for quite some time.

This makes portable_computer, a portable computer, which cannot work without an external power supply, has taken a step forward; at the same time, display technology such as eld-electroluminescent display has also been improved by lcd- Replaced by liquid crystal display.

In the end, laptop_computer—laptop computer, which is more commonly called notebook_computer—laptop computer in Greater China, is fully formed.

This kind of portable personal computers weighing less than 5 kilograms is mainly used for commercial purposes, and is very popular.

It must be admitted that Baodao’s high-tech work efficiency is very high. After seeing this situation, Baodao Industrial Technology Research Institute immediately convened nearly 50 manufacturers on the island to form a "laptop alliance" to establish an industrial division of labor system and integrate notebook computers. A global manufacturing base for computers is the goal.

Tang Huan's arrival coincided with this general trend, and it took a lot of effort to deal with the officials who had been updated several times in just a few years.

The reason for being so busy, Geinbaodao can obtain a large number of orders from the IT kingdom of the richest man in Tang, and grow up from it-from 1979 when Tang Huan invested in the construction of a manufacturing base in Baodao, it has been more than ten years now. The development results achieved also prove this point.

At the beginning, Tang Huan set up a factory in Hsinchu Science and Technology Park to produce most of the hardware; slowly, he drove up the entire supply chain, prompting the original_equipment_manufacturer, the original equipment manufacturer, or oem to mature.

For example, this model, also commonly known as contract manufacturing and OEM production, has developed to the end, making some manufacturers have the ability to produce final products such as monitors and printers, so that in addition to Fangyuan Computer Company, they can also Supply to other purchasers.

This is not the end. With the digestion of the technology obtained from Tang Huan, some more powerful companies also have the ability to design themselves, forming the original_design_manufacturer-original design manufacturer, or odm model.

As a result, the range of orders that such manufacturers can accept is broader.

For example, those companies that enter the personal computer industry across fields can act as purchasers after obtaining authorization from Fangyuan’s compatible PCs. They can entrust manufacturers on Treasure Island to handle everything from design to production, and then deliver the final product. Affix the buyer’s own trademark and sell it on the market.

Because everyone is very optimistic about the current personal computer market, after oem and odm, another model has emerged, original_brand_manufacturer-private brand production, or obm.

In other words, the treasure island manufacturers with further technological strength are no longer reconciled to only take on the role of commissioned manufacturing and OEM production. Instead, they have begun to create their own brands, independently completing design, procurement, production, and finally Start marketing with this brand.

It has to be said that the way of survival in the IT circle is now dazzling.

But there is one thing, that is, no matter how the gameplay changes, Tang Huan's philosophy and Fangyuan always hold the power of life and death from the levels of standards, technology, authorization, software, and hardware, and others are not allowed to rebel.

At the meeting between Tang Huan and the high-tech industry in Baodao, this kind of power was reflected-such as Acer, Hon Hai, MSI, Gigabyte, Hongshuo... who are not little brothers, or apprentices and grandchildren.

In his speech, Tang Huan quoted the analysis data of his own think tank and talked eloquently: "By the end of this century, the global annual sales of personal computers is expected to exceed 100 million units, that is, from now on, an average annual increase of 1,000. Ten thousand units."

"In addition to commercial use, personal computers will also be used in homes more like color TVs. At present, the UK and rb have the highest home computer penetration rates globally, approaching 10%."

"Treasure Island is optimistic about the emerging notebook computer market, and I have to admire it with a word of'precise vision'-with the general trend of economic globalization, people will spend more and more time on business trips. A laptop is almost a must-have item."

...

What is an industry leader? That is, his words are rich in every word.

None of the people who were listening to Tang Huan doubted Tang Huan's judgment. They combined their own specific circumstances and desperately analyzed the business opportunities contained therein.

After the meeting, Tang Huan attended a landmark ceremony-the Internet on Treasure Island and the Internet on the other side of the Pacific Ocean were formally interconnected.

Next, the richest man also personally cheered for the public computer company's listing-this technology company founded by Wang Xueling and Jian Mingren together, Zheru Baodao Company and Tang Huan, also have important shares in it. I'm busy for myself.

With the backing of the richest man and the Formosa Plastics Group, the development of Volkswagen Computer Company in Baodao is going smoothly. It is conceivable that it hit a sky-high price of 1998 yuan on the first day, breaking the previous year’s Cathay Life Insurance’s 1975 yuan per share. recording.

Can’t blame Taiwan’s stock market for its willfulness-you know, on Monday, February 12 last year, it set a record high of 12,682.41 with a day volume of 216 billion yuan; then it took about a year to squeeze out the bubble. The plunge of more than 10,000 points is definitely an unprecedented and tragic major stock market disaster; then after adjusting for more than half a year, the points have recovered a little; now, investors who understand what value investment is called obviously put their hopes on the public computer company. Body.

In Tang Huan's view, this is a smart man's approach. Although the bubble in the Baodao stock market burst and taught the poor speculators who had been mowed, the environment has cooled, but the overall mechanism of the Baodao stock market is still not sound. One manifestation is that it is sensitive to policy changes, as long as the government~ High officials of the government casually let go of things such as adjusting income tax, and it will fluctuate wildly.

The arrogance of Baodao stock market is also a microcosm of Baodao's financial reforms in recent years.

After the "Ten Letters" case broke out, Baodao's banking industry has adjusted a lot. The most obvious feature is the implementation of interest rate freedom, the restructuring of some investment trust companies into commercial banks, and the liberalization of private bank operations. By this year , The number of approved new banks reached more than a dozen.

This move also reveals a kind of helplessness. For example, on July 13 of the previous year, Hongyuan Group, the leader of the Baodao underground investment company, announced that it would temporarily stop withdrawing funds because of a large number of investors running on it. As a result, Baodao, which was in a bull market at the time, The island stock market plunged 320 points that day.

In other words, private financial companies such as Treasure Island that are difficult to supervise urgently need an opportunity to go from underground to the table.

In fact, at this stage, the two "Asian Tigers" on Baodao and South Korea, compared to the seemingly hot stocks, the safest and smartest investment direction should be real estate, which is very different from rb.

In short, true carnivores have already had a full meal.

The reason why Volkswagen Computer Corporation chose to go public at this turbulent time is because of the need for further development.

In recent years, the NT dollar has appreciated significantly against the U.S. dollar. It turned out to be 38:1. This year it has reached 27.5:1. This is a big blow to the island’s economy, which originally relied on exports to the United States. At the same time, The labor cost of Baodao has continued to increase.

Just this year, Baodao officially ended its hostilities against the mainland. This has pointed out the direction of Baodao’s economic development. It goes without saying-after Volkswagen Computer Co. becomes a listed company, it will take steps this year. Enter the mainland.

...

After handling such official affairs, Tang Huan asked about the operation of family funds in Baodao, and then prepared to go to rb, which has opened the curtain of "lost ten years"-some real estate investment there is no longer If you take the shot and wait until next year, it will really suck.

At this time, Cao Xingcheng, chairman of Lianhua Electronics, came over and said that he had prepared a private party for the richest man, which was considered a practice.

Tang Huan laughed--what's something to give away, it's not that everyone doesn't keep in touch on weekdays!

The richest man knew very well in his heart that Cao Xingcheng was doing public relations for the 200mm, or 8-inch wafer technology he had in his hands.

You know, one of the meanings of Moore's Law-"the number of circuits integrated on an integrated circuit chip doubles every 18 months", mainly depends on the improvement of the process, which is almost every three to four In years, we have to take a step forward.

This technological innovation will naturally improve production efficiency and increase operating profits.

In addition, there is another way to achieve a similar effect, that is, to increase the diameter of the processed wafer-obviously, the longer the diameter, the larger the area, and the number of chips that can be cut at one time also increases.

However, compared to the upgrading of the process, the wafer area is not so easy to expand, and the research and development cycle often takes ten years-the latest technological achievements are now 8-inch wafers.

This phenomenon is also easy to understand, using the analogy of carving patterns on radishes-the improvement of knife skills is relatively simple, but the variety improvement to make radishes bigger must be complicated and time-consuming.

At this stage, the competition between UMC and TSMC, under the hype of the media, especially the actual conflict of interest, is already in full swing. The latter has the secret support of the official son of the treasure island, and Cao Xingcheng naturally wants to dig his own thoughts. Find a way by yourself.

The richest man Tang doesn’t care about delivering the world’s most advanced 8-inch wafer technology in his hands to UMC, which has a long-term close relationship with him, but he is worried about whether the other party has the ability to digest it. Is it enough?

The location chosen by Cao Xingcheng was a private hall.

Tang Huan looked at the signboard, and vaguely remembered that the Tang family’s fund also had shares here-no way, even if the richest man is perverted in memory, this kind of small investment is only equivalent to One byte in the hard disk is too inconspicuous!

"The environment here is familiar and quiet." Cao Xingcheng explained while giving in enthusiastically.

"It looks like a lot of effort on decoration." Tang Huan nodded and sat down casually in the middle.

"The tea art with local characteristics of the treasure island here is very famous." Cao Xingcheng recommended it as he pleased.

"The guest will do whatever you want." Tang Huan waved his hand.

Cao Xingcheng slapped his palm, and a tall, young woman walked in curly.

The richest man with old-fashioned eyes couldn't help but smile: "It looks like a model."

"Mr. Tang has eyes like a torch." Cao Xingcheng raised his thumb admiringly, "Her job is a model."

Some things need not be stated clearly, and everyone is tacitly aware-therefore, the richest man looked at this woman's extraordinarily pretty face with interest. It seemed a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember which star in the original time and space.

Just when Tang Huan began to suspect that he was thinking too much, Cao Xingcheng urged: "Xiao Xiao, don't quickly introduce yourself to Boss Tang."

Listening to the other party stiffly saying, "Hello Boss Tang~www.readwn.com~ My name is Xiao Qiang. I started to enter the modeling industry the year before, and I usually like to study tea art, so I dared to show my ugliness in front of you." The richest man finally reacted, Almost blurted out, "Yue is really a pig-killing knife!"

"Ms. Xiao doesn't need to be humble, there must be something extraordinary to be invited by Boss Cao." Tang Huan smiled and encouraged.

"Mr. Tang is an elegant person, just tea art entertainers, inevitably still a bit crude, I also prepared music." Cao Xingcheng recommended again.

Tang Huan laughed, "Old Cao, you are too enthusiastic, don't you need to be so troublesome? With the friendship between you and me, it's a little out of the ordinary."

Smiling and silent, Cao Xingcheng clapped again. A girl next door who seemed to be two years younger than Xiao Qiang walked in quietly and shyly with a tray of delicate pastries.

The richest man once again said without rubbing the sand, "This lady looks quite like a typhoon."

Without Cao Xingcheng's gesture, he introduced himself to Convenience softly: "Hello Boss Tang, my name is Su Huilun. I work as a singer. I usually like to go to the kitchen by myself. This time I made some cakes, please taste them."

Cao Xingcheng added: "Don't look at Tarcy, who only entered the music scene last year, but has already been named the "Jade Girl Head" and "Student Love ~ Ren", and his popularity is quite high."

Tang Huan smiled and nodded slightly, but he couldn't help but send a sentence in his heart, "The entertainment circle on Baodao is really getting messy."

Cao Xingcheng leaned over, pointed to the crystal clear grapes in the fruit bowl, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Tang can rest assured that they are very fresh and tender, and they will definitely not affect the taste."

The richest man said earnestly: "Old Cao, you think I'm not busy enough. Just talk about things when you have to. What are you doing with these tricks..."
